UCu3Ri8DI1RQLdVtU12uIp1Q	Bob Laliberte - Brocade Tech Day - theCUBE	Brocade is making a major bet on software-defined networking enablement, TRILL, and high-speed Ethernet to open the door to next-generation markets for virtualized, cloud systems, CEO Mike Klayko said in a webcast from the Cube at the Brocade Analyst Day over SiliconAngle.tv. With its new VDX 8770 switch, it has fixed the main problem users have had with Brocade's new technology, scalability. Klayko believes that the new switch and vastly simplified network management built into Brocade's 10 Gb Ethernet, fabric-enabled technology will open both the internal F2000 LAN and cloud service provider markets that total $30B to $50B. "Every CIO is trying to turn his data center into an internal service provider, and every service provider is trying to a data center," Klayko said. To do that and to cope with the huge growth in data overall while dealing with the fast evolution at the virtualization, application, and cloud management layers, CIOs need to eliminate the constant distractions created by complex management at the underlying, physical layer. "One design point I have the engineers is that the network fabric has to be self-healing, self-discovery, self-managing," Klayko said. "And you need new standards. We went with TRILL because spanning tree is inherently inefficient." Brocade succeeded in those goals according to early adapters. In a Peer Incite meeting on August 7, for instance, the Wikibon community heard from Luke Norris, CTO of IaaS provider Peak Colo, which moved to Brocade 10Gb Ethernet to support its high growth. Norris said that with Brocade and TRILL adding new switches is plug-and-play with no interruption of network operations or complex reconfiguration, a far cry from the spanning tree experience. The network simply identifies and incorporates the new switch on the fly. Klayko said that assembling a fabric is so simple that grade school children literally do it in about 120 seconds. Specifically, he referred to what Brocade calls the "Mod Squad", 4th-12th grade students who come into Brocade's office under an innovative cooperative learning program to get hands-on experience in data networking. Brocade has an aggressive growth growth strategy. Today it is the dominant player with about 70% of the $3B Fibre Channel SAN market. Despite analyst talk about that facing replacement with 10Gb Ethernet, "that market is not going anywhere for at least a decade," Klayko says. Actually, it is growing at about 3% per year. But the real growth are in the order-of-magnitude larger enterprise LAN and cloud service provider markets. "If we can get just a small faction of those, we will have tremendous growth," he says. Brocade's early gamble on Ethernet fabric architecture is beginning to pay off there, he said, with growing interest from users. "We were oversubscribed on the first day that we opened our beta test program," he said. "And the nearly universal response when we asked them if they would buy Brocade after the end of the beta test was, 'When can we get more?' When we came out with a beta of a 100 Gb switch one user asked if he can put 10 of those links together to get a Tb. That's a pretty good indication that the demand is out there." Two major trends are deriving that trend. First, data is growing at an astronomical pace. One Brocade client is doing human genome research with trillions of bytes of data. "You couldn't move those [data sets] around on a network. Now they are using them to research things like possible cures for cancer." The other is the rapid evolution of the three layers that run on top of the physical network. Startups like Nicira, recently acquired by VMware, are driving network virtualization. Above that, the application layer is also evolving in response to virtualization. And above that companies are building their own cloud computing layers to support their users. "Looking at it from the CIO perspective, they want to change, to absorb all these new technologies, at the rate they can support. They can't rip everything they have out. They need to support their businesses," Klayko says. "We provide the fundamental physical networking level that is not going away. Our technology is designed to let CIOs build at their own pace.

The interesting part, I think, will be what software-defined network, if those things are not part of the software-defined network, if they don't have that capability built in, do they become islands of technology and not an integral building block of the cloud? I think it's too early to call. I've been thinking about this a lot since VMworld and since the NICERA announcement. Stu, we've been covering VCE. You've got some extensive work on the EMC background. VCE has been delivering some real value, but it's a flagship-like offering, in my opinion. What's your take on VCE's impact? I mean, the NICERA hasn't come out directly and challenged VCE, but it's an emerging trend. VCE has been out there with some high functionality. You know, because VCE puts the whole stack together until there's networking there, but as Bob said, I'd agree, it's more of a compute. Even the storage is the more critical part. You look at VCE and VSpec, so that's been growing. It has some flexible options. Wikibon research shows that we think about two-thirds of all IT environments in the enterprise are going to be some kind of converged architecture within the next three to five years. Okay, so we have to break on time here, but I want to go down the line. I want to get, while we have two analysts on the interview process here, I want to get you guys to quickly summarize or state what's going to happen with software-defined networking, software-defined data center. In the next year, what's your assessment and view of this next year? Just the macros seen around this whole movement, network virtualization, software-defined networking, and ultimately the positioning and jockeying for position around software-defined data center. Bob will start with you. Get ready for the wave of software-defined everything. So first, we're going to see a lot of hype, and then I think following that, we're going to see a lot of organizations trying to educate the end-users on what software-defined networking or at least what their implementation of software-defined networking is going to be. And then hopefully by the end of next year, there's going to be some more products and people can start evaluating and testing. Stu, what's your take? So, you know, VMware's role with their partner ecosystem. Microsoft's impact, Intel with what they're doing. There's a lot of companies that are trying to get into networking. We've talked about that. What we saw at IDF, you know, Microsoft with their new Hyper-V3. What VMware's doing to take more and more, you know, intelligence and just bake it into the platform. So there's kind of a shake-up as to where the intelligence and the value of software lives and where the dollars are going to flow. So, you know, big changes in the ecosystem. Stu, awesome analysts really with a great perspective. So I find networking, networking is hot about time. We need to have this ball move down the field. Faster speeds, virtualization. This is theCUBE. Bob LaLibberte from ESG and Stu Miniman from Wikibon. This is SiliconANGLE.tv, the Cube, breaking down all the signal from the noise here at SDNs. We'll be right back with our next guest right after this short break.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RYgf0d3PC8", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

They are capable of carrying proteins, INA, and DNA molecules between cells, allowing them to act as messengers in cell-to-cell communication. Exosomes derived from certain cells, such as cancer cells, have been found to be more efficient at delivering therapeutic agents than unmodified exosomes. These modified exosomes have been shown to be effective in treating diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer's disease, and diabetes. This article was authored by Edwin J.

Un deporte en el que hay una alta demanda física, la fisioterapia es algo imprescindible. Los jugadores de alta competición, te diría que van a diario, a la fisioterapia incluso, a algunos que van varias veces al día. Hay trabajo específico para antes del entrenamiento, para después del entrenamiento, para antes de los partidos, para después de los partidos. Antes de los partidos y antes de los entrenamientos, el tratamiento va enfocado en activar al jugador, en prepararlo para que esté caliente para jugar. Y después de los entrenamientos y después de los partidos, el tratamiento va entaminado a recuperar al jugador para que el día siguiente esté disponible para poder trabajar. Las bases de nuestro trabajo las basaría en tres pilares fundamentales. El primero sería nuestras manos, la terapia manual, porque con las manos ya no esticamos y tratamos. ¿Qué pasa? Que hay veces que nuestras manos no llegan a todo. Entonces nosotros nos apoyamos en algunas herramientas, como pueden ser los ganchos, las agujas, que lo que conocemos como la fisioterapia invasiva. Y también nos apoyamos en tecnología. Aparatos como pueden ser los sistemas superinductivos, la radiofrecuencia o la serie de alta potencia. Que en definitiva lo que hacen eso es llegar donde nosotros no llegamos con nuestras manos. Y todo esto, que sería la fisioterapia pasiva, la apoyamos siempre en un trabajo activo, en un trabajo en el que participa el jugador también, que es lo que conocemos como el ejercicio terapéutico.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rPzOB66SW0", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

This is rich from rich to be live and I want to talk to you about mind medicine. So I Talked about this company before they did their IPO. They did their IPO exploded up You could see they flew up to really high levels and then came all the way back down They've been down as lowest 30 cents, which was like a buying opportunity of the century and Since then what we've seen them do is just explode up Kind of funny cuz some guys were talking to me and threatening They were gonna short this stock and I said, yeah, go short it Wonder where those guys are now up 27% today very quietly trading 5.5 million shares and up 27% Went through all my my stocks and my holdings like oh wow I'm up on mind medicine And I didn't expect it because it's been down. You see all this red here. It's been pushed down for the most part of you know the last three weeks and You could see they had that one explosion up in the green and Now the last two days in the green again here. So will this continue? Let's see here. Let's see if we know why they exploded mind med reports year-end results and corporate update Investor conference call scheduled for Wednesday, April 1st 2020 at 11 a.m. Eastern mind medicine Mmed in Canada Mmedf in America The leading neuro pharmaceutical company for psychedelic inspired medicines today announced the release of its audited consolidated financial statements otherwise known as a financial statements and accompanying management discussions and analysis For the period of May 30th 2019 date of incorporation to December 31st 2019 The period ended December 31st 2019 all financial figures contained herein Are expressed in US dollars USD unless otherwise noted For readers of the financial statements and MD&A it is important to note that on February 27th 2020 mind medicine ink Completed a reverse takeover transaction with Broadway gold Mining limited to form mind medicine ink Mind med Delaware is deemed to be the acquirer in the reverse takeover transaction and therefore mind med Delaware's audited consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31st 2019 Are deemed to be those of mind med and are the financial statements released today? Mind med was founded in May 2019 and completed a number of capital raises for the aggregate proceeds of US 30 million Including 19.5 million after period and making it very well capitalized in the psychedelic medicine industry I'm not going to go through all the news Our cash and working capital December 31st 2019 were three million us and four point seven million us respectively The increase in cash was due mainly to the US nine point nine million of net financings net of the cash used in operations of US three point one million and the funds held in trust of us three point six million The increase in working capital was due mainly to the net financings of us nine point nine million net loss of us five point four million Just reading all the information here. So there will be a conference call Tomorrow morning and I might even stream that that'll be a day at my time I'm gonna be really busy, but I'm gonna try to see if I can if I can stream that tomorrow What do you guys think about mind medicine big move today 5.5 million shares at 79 cents Did hit a high of 84 cents a low of 65 on the day a high of 84 finished at 79 Pleasant little surprise. I am green. I'm a shareholder Honestly, I might sell my position because I kind of got hot kind of got it got in way too high Looking at all this red here. It's just gonna be hard to believe. It's gonna stay above this level here 71 cents Looks to me like 61 cents Is going to be a very difficult level to stay over so let's see if they can maintain These prices or go higher Right now just looking at the chart. It looks like they're gonna have a lot of resistance Just based on historical patterns because it hasn't really stayed above these prices for long But you never know it's a brand new company just getting started. They do have Kevin O'Leary and Bruce Linton heavily involved Kevin O'Leary an investor and Bruce Linton on their board Stay tuned as your board rich from rich to be live We're bringing the winners and we bring them to your first mind medicine with a huge day Yesterday and today if you got enough 30 cents and you're at 79 Congratulations amazing trade Probably should have already sold you probably already did You're bored rich and wish to be live if you're not winning. You're not watching Bringing the winners and we bring them to you first. It's true It's your board rich and wish to be live and I'm out mind medicine. Keep bringing us those winners, baby Let's go 27% gainer.

So James Burnham is the author of The Mackie of Ellions, The Decline of the West, read a book on the managerial state, and his son reported a piece of life advice that James Burnham wasn't dispensed. It was assumed that everybody knows everything, and the reason for this advice, so grabbing my attention, is that as a preacher's kid, I learned to code-switch very early. I was the easiest of the three kids to raise, and then, of course, my parents were probably the most pain, and I learned to code-switch, meaning that when I was at home, I would find myself to the mores of my parents, but then, since I left the house, I would say and do what I wanted to do, and so this necessitated leading a double life. I had one life outside where I was having three, and another life where I just didn't want to rock the boat at home, and I've enjoyed the excitement of leading a double life on and off for years, like having one identity in church or one identity in synagogue, one identity at work, one identity with some friends, different identity with other friends. It would have been a big mixer, usually, for all my friends from the different components of my life. I haven't had a tremendous eagerness to bring them together, and some people have said that the multiple lies I've led raise schizophrenia to terrifying proportions, and so I recognize the profound truth of people like me in that James Burnham remark. I just assume that everybody knows everything. If you have that attitude, everybody knows everything, then this is one of the biggest Persian synagogues in Los Angeles. If you assume that everybody knows everything, you're not going to try to get away with stuff like all my life, and try to get away with stuff. I've got energy and thrills and excitement for trying to get away with stuff, but I'm almost 58 years of age, and I'm kind of tired of living a double life and trying to get away with stuff. Now I just want to be a solid citizen, and the last few years I've increasingly approximated some degree of operating as everybody knows everything. In other words, the opposite of trying to get away with things, trying to hide things, trying to lead multiple lives. So I have friends who have a polite exterior, and then they can be quite raunchy and edgy online. They have an e-personality, and then they have their sober, compliant, respectable personality for the real world. But the two keep bleeding into each other, particularly the e-personality and the toxic edgy habits developed from e-personality bleed into their real life, and get them fired, get them isolated, lose friends, lose standing, lose income. A lot of bad things happen when you get most of your energy and enthusiasm and joy in life from your e-personality. I love this view. I love the palm trees, and so particularly conservatives feel constrained, because the accusation of racism is just a death knell, and so people on the right feel constrained from sharing their views much more than people on the left. They feel like the system, the game, the institutions are arrayed against them, and so they may see their edgy comments for online, and they particularly feel the outrage industry, which is dominantly on the right, and through online anonymity, and they can live out their second life, where there's a tremendous excitement. So talking to a friend of mine who is a total edgelord in private with people he treats for us, and in various internet personality profiles, I'm a total edgelord, but in real life he has to be very respectable, and he has to be able to pull off a good working relationship with the dominant center-left strand of Jewish life. But these arrangements can very easily come crashing down, and it's come crashing down for him at various times, where his more edgy side gets exposed, and it feeds back into the polite side. So for most people, I think they're better off operating, acting, living as though everybody has everything. And for many of my edgelord friends, they find that boring, right? If you don't have kids, you're very likely, and you're a man, you have a tremendous need for excitement, right? Men who are married with kids, they don't seem to have this need for excitement, but I know that a single man out there chasing excitement, and often they find it online, where they find, you know, a community of people with a similar edgelord personality and orientation, and when you present to a single guy, a bachelor, this idea, operate as though everybody knows everything, his reaction is going to be, that sounds boring. I love my double and triple lies of being a double agent operating behind enemy lines. It's just much more exciting. But this pursuit of excitement, right? I certainly feel it, understand it, but it's not usually conducive to a happy, successful life. It usually leads to isolation, that choices, loss of income, loss of prosperity, loss of social prospects, loss of community, and loss of opportunities to move out of the bachelor status to get married and have kids. Then I presented this idea to another Jewish friend, and he said, well, I like it. That is how a Jew should operate with his fellow Jews, but not with the Goyim. With his fellow Jews it should be open and free, and let them know the score, talk about what's really going on, be open about the quality of his goods, but we can't be that way with the Goyim. That's a dark humor that reminds me of the darkness of Cormac McCarthy novels, right? I'm listening to the audible version of Child of God, one of Cormac McCarthy's early novels, and my God, I can't even describe it, comes across a young couple in a car who are no longer living, and he takes out everything that he's ever wanted to communicate to a woman on this one particular female corpse, and this is in a Cormac McCarthy novel called Child of God, right? This itinerant wanderer, when I glanced at the plot description in Wikipedia called him a serial killer, though I haven't gotten to that part yet. My God, I did date one woman and said, I take out all your frustrations with women, take them out on me in bed. That's why it's good to be unified, right? I used to have this tremendous fear of the different elements of my life coming together, such as at the party for my books, the book party put on by the Los Angeles Press Club in 2004, my memoir Rebel About a Shure, and my book on Hollywood that produces profiles and frustration, and the various segments of my life were there largely separated. There was the dominantly secular journalist crowd, there were my Orthodox Jewish friends, and there were the various people I knew from the Hollywood and from the porn industry, and like these four different, largely separate crowds. So, I mean, communists had great success infiltrating our institutions and infiltrating our government. So, for the extraordinary person who can make an extraordinary difference by leading a double life, then if they can achieve extraordinary results, then that's good for our cause. If they're doing the right thing, making society the world, the nation a better place, then yeah, I guess there's a strong case for the extraordinary to take on a double life. But for most people, they're much better on leading a unified life, and it's bracing, and it's not exciting. But a lot of subtle benefits just kind of build over time, so if you think of your good deeds getting in front of you as your ambassadors, it's more effective if you're leading one unified life, rather than just trying to get away with stuff running across the street. If you've got a split life and you do some good deeds in one side of your life, the rest of your life will benefit. If you have a unified life and you're building towards something, then different components of your life can work together. I remember I think it was Daniel Lappin who wrote about this in one of his books on Judeo-Christian America, so that if you can't tell people what you do for living, it'll be tremendously handicapped, because ideally you want to let a wide variety of people know what you do off of your services, and that way you can build off your community, off your network, off your connections. If you're too ashamed to let people know what you really do for a living, then it's hard to build financial prosperity and social prestige and social prosperity. One aphorism is you can tell the character of somebody by what they do for a living.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rStuVBSt4s", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

How do I balance drinking and going out with working on my fitness goals? I really want to get back in shape and go hard But I also love drinking and watching sports with my friends. So it's hard mentally any tips Yeah, I can't wait to hear what you guys gonna say right now. It sounds fun Well, this has to be one of the most common super common things that you hear from clients super car And I think I over years mind my conversations changed I want to hear what you guys have to say like how you would present. Oh, yeah, you know the way I used to present So if you're serious, you're not gonna drink and you really want to cut it out Here's the bottom line. Okay, you can't have everything. Okay, so now this isn't a negative message This is a positive one. You enjoy hanging out with your friends. There's value in that nothing wrong with that You also like fitness. That's phenomenal. Are you gonna get the most fit buffed best performance? If you drink occasionally eat the occasional slice of pizza with your friends. No, who cares who cares because you also like to Hang out with your friends. So unless you're training for a high-level competition in which case I tell people like okay Well, you want to perform the absolute best on this particular day make sure for the next two months or whatever But look, this is life life is like this. So you enjoy things. That's fine. It's balanced So you're gonna give up a little bit for the other one. Is it all worth it to you? That's up to you There's no secret answer. I'm not gonna tell yes z-biotics for example will help you with the alcohol. Is it perfect? No, it's not perfect Alcohol still has calories and doesn't eliminate that doesn't eliminate the the fact that you might get drunk and make other You know choices around that just it's just accepted It's not a big deal as long as nothing's too extreme you're not hurting yourself with the exercise or the or the drinking It's it's not a big deal. Yeah, I mean we have we have short-term goals sometimes and I think there's nothing wrong with Intensifying your disciplines for periods And it's so I get it like I get sometimes you do want to present your your body or you have the Specific things where you know like if I'm I feel more confident because I have to take my shirt off and I got a kind of You know make sure that I feel good In that opportunity and so I would tighten it up a bit then like that's just one of those things You got to you got to sacrifice your fun a bit, right? And so it's just like this is life is where you do you want to do a sprint right now and really focus on that? Or you playing the long game Is this something that is just like a lifestyle thing that you just want to keep in shape? But also have fun on top of that you could totally do that and be flexible with it You just have to know that it is pulling back, you know your results a bit But you could totally like weave that in as long as you maintain your your normal Healthy fitness goals and practices and other disciplines throughout the week well You like drinking and watching sports with your friends. Are we watching basketball because that's on three nights a week? Or are we watching football which is on every Sunday, and you're doing that? So first of all I'd ask how often is this because And you you have to be very realistic with what your goals are because they're conflicting type of goals one of them is you know you're pursuing, you know the social aspect of of health and And drinking and enjoying yourself which like Sal said I think there's tremendous value in that And I think there's nothing wrong with that too But you also have to be very realistic with what you're asking yourself to do on the physical side too if you are Looking at your favorite Instagram person who's got you know six-pack abs and looks amazing And you aspire to look like that and at the same time too you want to drink with your friends every basketball game or every football game on Sundays, so I work up. Yeah, it's just it's unrealistic to do that And I think that I think why we see this is because we had there's a lot of that Promoted on like social media. You'll see somebody who's got this great physique And then they're only posting these videos of them celebrating and going out and having fun doing this like well That's after they got to that yeah, and you and you don't know how neurotic they are about their fitness outside of that So all use what you don't see is that guy or girl spitting it out Right, or you don't see them getting up every weekend and cooking for the whole week and weighing and measuring and tracking their calories and then getting on and doing that cardio early in the morning and doing all these other things So they can do that and still maintain this physique and you just got to ask yourself If that's what you want it there. There is a there is a balance here I mean I absolutely enjoy a drink with my friends and watch a game But I also don't need to do that every single time we sit down and watch a game It's like so you you learn to have a little bit of that balance of like okay Well, I do love to do that and there's gonna be times where you know what? I do want to do that my buddies and I we haven't been together and you know over a month It's a big game, you know our two teams that are playing against each other and we don't have anything to do the next day It's like hey, let's let loose and have a good time like hundred percent. I'm gonna do that Yeah But if I'm seeing my friends every single weekend and we're watching football and we're having beer every single time Is it really that special? Is it really that big of a deal if I sacrifice two or three of those times? Like is it really at that point you can't have fun with your friends without including alcohol? I think you should really ask every time right like every time like that's that's a question you to ask yourself Why yeah, but again, it's all look it's all about but it's so funny, too I was thinking right now like we Adam and I went to that event in Arizona and We it was like nine o'clock at night and we're both looking at each other like let's we should probably not just go to bed And it's funny because People might be like oh, they're so disciplined. They didn't go out and drink with people. See I wasn't there And it's like no, it's because we have kids and we're tired of want to go to bed But you know the truth is you know like like as a fitness podcast We had a weed sponsor at one point, okay? We had a cannabis sponsor that a delivery company we will hang out and we'll drink and enjoy ourselves sometimes And I was so neurotic when I was younger that I kind of learned this the hard way like I learned like wait a minute That's not really enjoying life. What was that study? I think he met a Stanford that showed that like bad relationships was bad for your health is like smoking 10 packs You know 10 cigarettes a day or something like that. Yeah, so it's all health But here's the here's the challenge the challenge isn't necessarily that the challenge is the I want my cake And I want to eat it too, but you can't do it all. Okay, you're not gonna be 4% body fat, you know Instagram ready, but also on the weekends you hang out with your friends and your drinks It's not gonna happen, but that's okay You know that's okay that you got to be able to to look at the whole thing from a balanced perspective Now if you want to do that Then it's gonna mean that you're gonna have to cut out a lot of other things that you enjoy In order to look a particular way, which I would argue is a miserable existence. I'm gonna be honest with you It's not a very fun. I'm the most neurotic out of all of us here in the studio But I also don't go that extreme because it sucks. It sucks to be that extreme all the time You got to find that value for yourself and find that balance and there Justin was kind of eluding this There's nothing wrong with you saying you know what the next eight to 12 weeks. I'm gonna I am gonna be neurotic I am gonna like I'm gonna skip all drinking a cage social events. I'm gonna train hard I'm gonna weigh a measure and I actually think there's tremendous value in doing that and also asking yourself like This isn't me saying for the rest of my life. I remember I was a guy who competed this for three years Yeah, and during that time I carried my Tupperware and missed out on all these you know drinking occasions And I don't feel like I really missed out that much and if you did it forever, right? If I did forever and that was my life I would feel that way but I did it for a period of my time because I had a goal that I cared about more and I knew although be plenty times in the future for me to drink and I had plenty of times of drinking before that So I think there's nothing wrong and I think there's lots of value in you making that sacrifice to get to that point because Once you get to that like that what you were seeking as far as your your your Aesthetics or whatever we're we're chasing right now once you get there and and you find you know what it takes Discipline wise sacrifice consistency wise to get to that place You then can start to do things like adding the drinking in here and there and you can see how much it affects it What's worth it right and then exactly and then you have an eye and that's exactly is it worth it? I'll to ask you Adam You've done this before is it worth it to walk around just for life just for your life Is it worth it to walk around 5% body fat all the time? No No for the the fuel as cool as it is Oh, yeah, and I've shared on the show before one of the most epic moments ever was The the weekend in Vegas when I went pro at it It's burned in my brain. It felt amazing to be on top of the world that moment and to feel that crazy in shape Even knowing that I still would know I wouldn't want that all the time because those are those are tiny little sliver moments That you have the rest of time don't give a shit you're walking around 5% underneath your clothes. No one cares I'm saying it so I'm so glad you said that because I think we have this mental image of what you know Looks like to or what it's like to look fit and healthy You know what the reality is if you're generally healthy, you're gonna look good You're not gonna be super shredded but super shredded nobody really cares for the most part anyway except for other fitness fanatics I'll be honest if I get super shredded, you know who people who notice other like fitness maniacs other people are kind of like He's a little too lean. I've actually had people tell me that oh if you gain a little bit of body fat You'd look better, you know type of deal when I've gotten that lean So nobody really cares not that big of a deal you can't have it all but so what I think balance is the key This is a lifelong pursuit and this this you know this dichotomy that we create with ourselves Like I think it's totally silly sometimes Hey, if you enjoyed that clip you can find the full episode here or you can find other clips over here and be sure to subscribe	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RPgr3NWhb4", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }
UCrM4z9DzdvD3bnA5E7tDtKQ	Vermont State House - JRH6 Racism as a Public Health Emergency 5/18/2021		null	2021-05-28T18:25:09	2024-02-05T06:09:30	638	5RnANVIHpc4	All right, we're live. All right, good afternoon. This is the Senate Health and Welfare Committee meeting. It is May 18th. And we are going to look at two proposals before us. One is JRH 6. I think we'll take that one up first for a vote. And Katie, you are here. Thank you for being here. So we have made no changes to JRH, we have not recommended changes to JRH 6, based on our testimony and information yesterday. So I'll open it up for discussion at this point. We did take a little vote, not a formal vote, an informal show of hands where we supported the draft that came to us. So is there any discussion further committee? Go ahead Ruth. Senator Hardy. Thank you. I just had a question based on our conversation in the Senate Democratic Caucus today. And I can ask that now or if you wanna vote first and then I can ask it, whichever you prefer Madam Chair. It depends on what the question is. Okay, so I guess I'll ask it and then you can say we wanna discuss it. So especially for Josh and Senator Taranzini and Senator Cummings who weren't there, we had a discussion about JRH 6. There were a number of questions. And one of the questions was regarding the fact that we had gotten some testimony on adding language or findings related to Abenaki Vermonters or indigenous people who live in Vermont. And I explained that given the time and the lack of runway to make changes in bills and get them back and forth that we did not make changes. And there was a question as to whether I would say in my floor report on the bill on behalf of the committee if we committed to making changes next session, was that what your understanding was based of that question or just working on the issue or I'm looking to you Madam Chair. I want the committee to tell me what I should say. So here's my suggestion. Let's see if there is a motion to vote on JRH 6 and then we'll take this up either as discussion or after we've completed our vote. Okay. Yeah, that's the next step I think. Okay. But I'm glad you raised it. Katie, it's all set to go. It is. I don't have to prepare anything since you're just approving it, so. Right, okay. All right. I would move to move JRH 6 to out of committee onto the Senate floor as introduced from the House. Okay. All right, any discussion? So I will say just in a bit in response to the questioning today about or the concern about a lack of indigenous folks in the resolution, at least the supporting documentation does talk about ethnic diversity and which is important in our state. So I don't feel that we're short changing anything at this point and I think that we can move ahead with the vote. Then we can talk about what it is we want to say on the floor about any promises. Okay. Any discussion? Senator Taranzini, please call the roll. Yes, I will. Senator Taranzini votes yes. Senator Hooker, please. Yes. Senator Cummings. Yes. Senator Hardy. Yes. Senator Lyons. Yes. Terrific. 500. All right. So Senator Hardy will get that up to the floor and it should be on the calendar for tomorrow. So we'll see how it goes. Katie, I do have one question for you and it relates to the information that is or is not in the resolution relating to our Abnaki population or our Native American population and ethnic groups from our state. As you look at that resolution, do you identify at least some reference to those group, to the group or do you think it's totally lacking? I'd have to look at each clause. Yeah. We talk about inequities based on race, generally. And then the next, the second whereas clause, we talk about systemic racism and social determinants of public health, all of which further adversely impact the health of people of color. The third whereas clause just is specific to inequities among black and Latino people in the United States. The fourth whereas clause talks about black residents. Fifth whereas clause is, let's see, specific or it's more general. It's race and ethnicity. And then we have a whereas clause about the incidence of COVID and it's broken down into categories by black Vermonters, Asian Vermonters, Hispanic Vermonters and the rate for other races. So I'm assuming that's where indigenous persons would be in that kind of broad category, other races. So I could keep going, but there are some places where the language is very specific to a particular group. There are other places where the language is a little bit more general. But of course, as was pointed out yesterday, there's no place where indigenous populations are specifically called out in this resolution. Okay, and then, so Senator Hardy, as you're going through for the floor presentation and looking at the information, the underlying supporting documentation might be helpful to see what is there. I'm gonna do the same thing, but in terms of making a promise about what we may or may not do, I think we are certainly concerned about having our abnaki population well represented as we correct inequities in the past and move forward. So either you or I can say something like that. I think it's not a matter of promising to do something, but we're certainly aware and understand the need for change, for doing something. Go ahead. Okay, that sounds good. And I also will point out that we did make changes to H 210 that included specific findings and language both relating specifically to indigenous and Native American and abnaki populations, but also to broadly finding better terminology than using non-white. And Katie in particular worked hard to get that language right. And so I think that this committee has already shown a commitment to that. And so I guess I will underscore that as well. And then of course, the eugenics policy and practices apology that we passed last week is also part of that. So we have done some things already this session and there's certainly more work to do. And I think this committee committed to that. And we're aware of that. Of course. No, I think those are two good things to point out. I think in particular S 210. Yeah. Okay. Good. Okay, great. Thank you. So I don't say things that we don't all feel comfortable with. We don't want to make promises because sometimes you can't keep them, but we are certainly aware of the things that we would like to do. Great. Thank you. No, thank you. Okay. And whether I get up and say, and get up, whether I raise my hand to say anything, we'll see what transpires. I think just knowing that there may be another alternative proposal coming forward. We'll see. Katie, thank you so much for your work on this and taking the time from your family to be with us this afternoon. So I think we're good. We're, I think we're, I think we're all set. You can launch off to commence to go forth. All right.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RnANVIHpc4", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }
UCrM4z9DzdvD3bnA5E7tDtKQ	Vermont State House - S.54 Regulation of Cannabis 4/3/19		null	2019-04-05T12:37:18	2024-02-05T06:10:08	7,124	5rlerZMQA4c	with us this afternoon. Thanks for having me. Always fun to come up here. You say it like you need it. Well, I'm particularly a big fan of the Friday donuts and pastries. I'll just be honest. See you this Wednesday. See you this Wednesday. You missed the reenactment of that Friday. There's no floor show this week. Actually, we're kind of in tune with that as well. We'll give you the opportunity to participate if you'd like to bring some. I believe they're cream filled. We are going to say, you guys might be happy with what I grabbed on the way in. Give us a chance to be critical. Give you a chance, huh? We all go to that gas station. So there's a couple of different perspectives from which I think we can benefit from Damien's wisdom. And that is understanding what the state of Vermont has in place for regulation of alcohol. And then I think the other perspective that we might pick his brain a bit about is, how did Vermont come out of the prohibition era and into a regulated sale of alcohol? Of course, those parallels won't be direct because we're in a very different time. But I think worthwhile knowing, understanding what that process looks like so that we can think about ways that this may or may not look similar. Yeah, so for the record, Damien Leonard, Legislative Council, before I get into this overview, maybe I'll do a little bit of history on our alcohol laws and prohibition. So Vermont actually had prohibition twice, once in the late 19th century. And then again, when there was national prohibition, both times it was not a successful program, as you may know. The initial time prohibition was a statewide law, but let's say the compliance with the law was spotty at best and Towns essentially set their own policies. The second time around, as you know, national prohibition, again, compliance was spotty with lots of corruption and organized crime that grew up around that. What came out of that was our Title VII basically came almost entirely in the structure we've got now, grew out of prohibition. And it was a movement that, there were kind of two models that came out of it. And one of them was this control state model with the idea that the state could help promote temperance by controlling the supply of alcohol. So the idea and temperance to keep in mind here, the original meaning of temperance was sort of moderate consumption, not total prohibition on consumption, although that's where the temperance movement got was prohibition. So this idea was basically a pushback against that, say a prohibition was a massive failure, so we need to moderate the consumption of alcohol. Once the best way to do that, it's to get the state involved in controlling the supply of hard liquor. And so that's where we came out in 1934 when we passed Act number one of the special session that year, which was to legalize the sale of alcohol in Vermont. So what they created was the liquor control board, which was sort of an island from state government. The idea being that it would be insulated from the political temper of the moment because you have people who are appointed and then they appoint the commissioner of liquor control who works for them to control sort of the sale and regulation of alcohol within the state. So you don't have a governor coming in and just putting in a political body. And you don't have policy at the department changing with the political times as one party changes over to the other. So the idea was that you get some isolation there to get away from some of the corruption that was seen as a potential. The other thing that came out of it was this idea that the state would have this dual role, the department of liquor control and the board would have this dual role of promoting the sale in order to bring an income to the state, but also promoting temperance. So how do you promote the sale and balance that against moderate consumption? And one of the ways the state does that is by controlling the number of outlets and also controlling the price. So the price of any hard liquor you buy in the state right now is at a price set by the liquor control board which is now the board of liquor and laundry. And I'm going to use those terms interchangeably because I'm still adjusting to the new name. But the idea was that they set the price, they control the supply, they control where you can buy it. And since that time, the idea at that time was that this would control it. Since that time, studies have shown that you have lower liquor consumption when you reduce the outlets with hard liquor. So that part is at least played out. And then we've also found here in Vermont that it's a significant source of income for the state and it's a reliable one. So the other piece that the board controls is of course licensing all of the different pieces in here. Now one of the issues here with marijuana, the parallels that we can't have is because marijuana is a controlled substance at the federal level and it's a prohibited substance. The state ownership of that at some point is potentially problematic and I would leave, let Michelle discuss those issues with you more because she's far more knowledgeable about that. But that's a big difference between alcohol and marijuana. So this control state model doesn't apply as much but the regulatory model might be something you're interested in. So, and that's something to keep in mind though as you're evaluating these because it's not an apples to apples sort of comparison. There are some significant differences between the substances here. Once even just getting away from the time that they've been used within society and how marijuana is just kind of more recently coming to the legal market versus alcohol having been legal on the state for over 90 years now or 80 years. So, 85, there we go. But anyway, so the board of liquor and lottery is a five member board. They're appointed by the governor. They serve for three year terms that are staggered and you can have no more than two consecutive terms. The idea being that you don't wanna have the board become sort of entrenched, splurotic, non-responsive to things. You wanna allow for some fresh faces on the board. The board of liquor and lottery meets one to two times per month. They have jurisdiction over alcohol, tobacco and the state lottery. So again, versus any sort of control system or regulatory body you might envision for marijuana, this is different because they've got a wider jurisdiction. But they do licensing for all stages of alcohol production and as well as tobacco sales and lottery sales. They adopt the rules necessary to carry out the laws. They enforce those laws. They oversee the opening of state liquor agencies and they oversee the operation of the state lottery. What I'm gonna focus on here for you is just the retail sales aspect and the licensing aspect. So the licensing process for retail alcohol sales is interesting in Vermont because it's a local state sort of partnership. So the board will review all the licenses for retail sales and these are what we call first and second class licenses. To put it more simply, a first class license is a restaurant. A second class license is a retail store. So the three-panning is a first class license. Yankee Wine and Spirits is a second class license. So before you even get to the board though, you have to apply to the local control commissioners which is your town select board or your city council depending on where you live in the state or if you're one of the few Vermonters who lives in a gore, it's the administrator of the gore. So once you get local approval and they're directed to sort of administer the liquor laws locally and they can impose conditions based on local ordinances around noise and other sorts of nuisances that might crop up. So if there's restrictions on noise after a certain hour, they can impose that restriction on the licensees. But after you receive local approval, your application gets forwarded to the board that then reviews the application against the liquor laws as well as looking at corporate documents, trade name, your lease, your rental agreement or your deed to make sure you have control of the property. Your rooms and meals tax number, they wanna make sure you're actually legitimate business operating within the constraints of the law. They look for your federal tax number, your lodging number if you're a hotel, your health license if you're operating a restaurant, compliance with the training requirements. So you gotta train your servers on sales here so that they're making sure that they're not serving people who are intoxicated, they're checking IDs, et cetera. And then they also look to make sure you're actually updating on your taxes and your unemployment insurance contributions. And then licensing is on an annual basis on the April 30th of every year. So that's kind of a summary of the retail process. The process for all the other licenses is just a state process. So if you're a manufacturer, that's just through the state. If you're a wholesale distributor, that's just through the state. And then if you're getting a license or a permit for, for example, a festival or something like that, you may have to get a separate local permit, but you're gonna get your permit for the actual service of alcohol through the state. The only exception to this is catering licenses, which have a local state approval aspect. So that's kind of a 30,000 foot view of the process. It might be better if I just start answering sort of specific questions that have come up because I don't know where you're at from your consideration of the marijuana bill at this point. So in that context. Jim? So I have a couple of questions. First of all, I understand you're between the control state having the state line for spirits and then the regulatory state for beer and wine. Is there anything that would prevent the state from being a control state for marijuana if we want to put down that app? Not grow it maybe, but buy it. I mean, we don't grow it. We don't manufacture our own liquor we buy from surveyors. So the concern that I would have about that is that the Federal Controlled Substances Act prohibits the possession of marijuana. Okay. Now, that's not currently, the enforcement of that is currently a lot of folks. Yeah, you put a state in a really weird position there. Okay, so renewing licenses. You mentioned the towns initially grant the license and it goes up to the DLC and then they do their magic and approval license after that. Retail licenses are renewed first at the town and then at the state level every year. This has been a, that's an ongoing sort of thing. So what grounds can a town not? So a town cannot renew a license if you're either out of compliance with the liquor law or if you violate one of the conditions of your license. So the conditions of your license become, essentially if you're in violation of your license conditions, that could be a reason to suspend or revoke the license. That it's a speak license at that point or state. Right, typically revocation is something that's handled at the, although the law, I believe, allows municipalities to do it, that's typically something that the board does. The municipalities will refer it up to the board and they'll go around. I'm thinking there was, I want to say, a case in Rutland recently where a bar just had a bad record of fights breaking out and the town, the city said, you're done, they didn't renew the license. I'm wondering if there are any instances in retail stores where it's not on-premise consumption that towns have said, why don't we do your license? I'm not aware of any off the top of my head that might be a better question for the department. But I mean, it's conceivable to me that if you had a retail outlet that had multiple violations for selling to minors or something like that, that the town might decide not to renew the license or that they might have a proceeding before the board for suspension or replication of their license. There's multiple violations spelled out anywhere. I mean, if a store sold to a minor, there's a violation of their conditions of a license, but that's one violation. I wouldn't think most towns would, but could they not renew because there was a violation? Let me pull up the statute for you here and I'll just bring this over there. And while you're doing that, you've been multi-cast. To my best. If a town decided for whatever reason they wanted to become a dry town, what happens to the existing bars, restaurants, orders, stores that are in that town after the town takes over? So I think about it. I don't know that it's ever happened, but I wondered what would happen. Yeah, I'm not sure that it has. If it did, it was probably closer to the repealed prohibition, because I think towns have generally been going the other way at this point, but you can't get a license if you're in a dry town. So I think at that point, that license would last when the term ran out. But that's an interesting question. It's not one I've thought about before. So I'm going to pull up the penalty for sailor furnishing the miners. So you'll notice here what we're looking at is, so a person who violates subsection A, which is sailor furnished alcoholic beverages or knowingly-enabled consumption, is subject to a penalty of $500 to $2,000 in imprisonment for up to two years or both. So it's pretty stiff. And then there is a provision here that for, if it occurs during a compliance check, which is when they send in someone underage intentionally, then you're assessed just a civil penalty and on the second violation, the civil penalty is between $100 and $500. And you're only subject to criminal violations if it occurs within a year of the first violation. And then as far as the license revocation there, and this is actually up for, let's see if I can find the right term there. Here we go. So there's a penalty for the person who does the selling, which could include a jail term. And then the license here, if you're in violation of the title, the conditions pursuant to which the license was granted or any rule prescribed by the board, they have the power to suspend or revoke. And then the revocation, you have to have the hearing before the board of liquor and lottery. So I need to just correct what I said earlier. They need to go to board of liquor and lottery, but they can be suspended by the municipality. And then there's always the renewal. So you can do the non-renewal at that point. Typically, I think you have to have multiple violations before they do a revocation or you have to have a really serious violation. But this is something where the department's really the better entity to testify on this. But I think typically the groups you see getting a revocation are, it's a licensee that is, they got penalized once, they didn't learn their lesson, they got penalized again. And on the second or third time through the system, the board says, this is enough. Okay, so one last question, then I'll be quiet. There's been some discussion about keeping it local. Given per shot at local entities, Vermont entities for these licenses. And it seems to me, we've come to a liquor license. It used to be, it had to have a majority of your board if you were a corporation residence. So then I thought that was changed at some point. Yeah, the majority of Vermont residents, I think was probably taken out back in the mid, trying to think, it might have been the mid 2000s when the grand home decision came down. So one of the things you're dealing with here again, and this is a difference between alcohol and marijuana is for purposes of alcohol, you're dealing with a substance that's in interstate commerce. With marijuana, it's not in legal interstate commerce. There may be marijuana that's transported in violation of federal law and interstate. But so the restriction to, having allowing just residents to obtain a license has run into problems in other states where they have that restriction. In fact, there's a Tennessee case that just went up to the Supreme Court where they restrict, they required you to be a resident of the state for a certain period of time before you could get a license. In that case, that law is being challenged and I expect it to be struck down as a violation of the Norman Commerce Clause. The, in Vermont right now, our restriction, I'm just gonna pull this up here. So the definition as a person, you have to be a citizen or a lawful permanent resident of the United States or have a majority of your owners or members. If you're an LLC, these citizens are lawful permanent residents of the United States. And this is actually proposed to change this year to pass the house already and is pending in the Senate to allow individuals who are here on an E2 non-immigrant investor visa to be, to allow them to get ownership as well. You'll notice that the EB-5 has been kept out because of the problems with that program, but the E2 is the non-immigrant counterpart to that visa. It requires a smaller investment but we do have business owners in Vermont who are here on that visa and are operating businesses where they would like to sell alcohol that cannot right now because they're either in compliance with the state statute and out of compliance with their immigration requirements or they're in compliance with their visa requirements and out of compliance with elected law. So, but right now you have to be a lawful permanent resident or citizen of the U.S. Other questions? Questions? Just a comment and then a question. So addressing Jim's things, there's only two grounds that the select board acting as the Labor Control Commission can deny a license or suspend a license for. One is what Damien already pointed out, but there can be local ordinances that regulate entertainment or public licenses that they can also deny or suspend a license for. Thank you. Yeah, and that's one of the things that they can condition that license onto. So there have been instances in some of the municipalities where that violation has been a violation of the local ordinance and then that's actually, there were a couple cases that went to our state Supreme Court several years back that challenged some of the local authority and the local authority was kind of, the Supreme Court's mapped it out pretty clearly. That's pretty restrictive. Yeah, it is pretty restrictive, but there it still exists. So my question is, I mean, you talked about how limiting the number of state liquor stores limits consumption. Do you know or where we go to find out how the board of liquor and lottery determines how many stores should be in the state in their geographical diversity, I guess? So that's a multi-part answer. And I can give you, tell you what I know about it. And then of course the board or the commissioners can always fill in additional details. So they look at things like population density, distance to the nearest other liquor agency. So they don't want to oversaturate any one market. But they do want to provide people reasonable access and they also want to do it in a way that's going to be generated reasonable return for the state. Since the state owns the liquor on the shelves, the person who operates the location is just the agent for the state and they get a sales commission. So they look at things like that. So that's why you might see, for example, I think Burlington has four liquor agencies, but other towns may not have one and they have to go to the neighboring town for a liquor agency and it's based a little bit on population density. And then trying to make sure no one has to drive beyond a certain amount of time to get to one. The other limiter for the department and the board right now is the warehouse and the IT system. So we are currently at 80 agencies and my understanding is that until we get a newer, more modern warehouse with a modern IT system, we cannot expand beyond the agent 80 because we're both at capacity for warehouse space and we're also at capacity for what the IT system can handle as far as processing shipments and so forth. So that is why they're currently working through the capital bill to try to get a new warehouse and headquarters put together so that they can modernize that. If you've seen the liquor warehouse, it is amazing what the department does with what they have. It's a very antiquated building. It's not in great shape and they have squeezed, as far as I can tell, it seems like they've squeezed every available square inch out of that building. A few years back when the, I think it was during interim commissioner Giffin's time, as representative Gardner, you might have still been with the department that I can't remember but they had a consultant come in to figure out how to squeeze additional capacity out and they were able to stretch the life of the building by a couple more years by rearranging where the racks were and how they arranged inventory but I mean it's literally at that point where they're just, they're moving things around but the racking is outdated. It doesn't serve the latest sort of picking equipment. It doesn't serve the latest loading equipment so it slows down every step of the process. So the drivers are not able to unload as quickly as they might want to. They're not able to load the trucks as quickly as they would want to and so that's kind of the bottleneck right now. So I don't know how many agencies they might add if they could but at this point they were at 78 when I started here in 2014 that had gone to 80 in the last few years and I don't think they're going to add any more until they get a new space so it's interesting. J.P. Bob and Jim. I got an answer. Bob? So that's a good answer to the basically box on the end of Flickr when we started Lottery there was that kind of box too because we didn't want to promote gambling for the book and then eventually that caveat went to the win so you can have two sellers right next door to each other as we do in Burlington a lot. This is the same sort of situation we don't want to really be promoting. Marijuana use that much is there a reason why Lottery control went out the window on that? You're only here to 2014 maybe I'm asking the wrong question. Yeah, I don't know the history on the changes around Lottery and it's worth noting too that this is just for the retail outlets for hard alcohol. You can still get, you could still have multiple restaurants right next door to each other that can sell spirits. That's a third class license which you can get in addition to your first class but the, so it is just the outlets for taking spirits for consumption off the premises that they've limited and I don't know the history behind the Lottery there and without, I don't know enough about the marijuana bill to know how the provisions in there might match up or not to what's currently on the books. I know that there is, you know that sort of process of the third class licenses for restaurants are more expensive which limits them to some extent and there's additional liability too so that does make people choose here but you can still have, for example on Church Street in Burlington you have several outlets at the bottom of Church Street there that have a first and a third class license or several restaurants, excuse me. Jim, and then how? Was there any, to the back of the regulated market which is really what this is, is there anything that would, one, do you use beer and wine as an example of limiting the number of license? I ask that because, you know, in Massachusetts for example, they used to have a same ownership but so it used to be, you could only own three licenses and then eventually they changed it, it might be 10 now or something, but they limit it. I don't know that they limit the location but maybe they do. Could we do something like that if it were litter, I mean that beer. So I'm not aware of anything that would prohibit it and in fact for fortified wine permits which is a permit for a retail outlet to sell higher alcohol wine which would normally only be available through a state-like agency, those are limited to 150 statewide. So we've done it with respect to that and then there are limits on the number of sort of short term special event permits that an entity can get per year depending on the type of permit. So I think right now the special event permit which is actually one of the names of the permits is limited to two a week and these are sort of for the pop-up of the manufacturer so that they can serve their product and sell you bottles of it from a location like this is different than like a farmer's market, it's sort of they'd pop up at another special event and it's a limited space. We do limit it. Right, so medical marijuana is limited right now. I don't see any reason why you couldn't limit the number. The one thing that you would probably want to be conscious of is that it's being down on a basis that's not somehow discriminatory. So, or would have people say there's an equal treatment issue or something like that. So in terms of the licensees, are the applicants all given equal consideration on applying or would a corporation be more favorable than an individual? Is there more stable? Well I think with the licensees they're all on equal footing when they apply. The basic is you pay your fee and you submit your application. A corporation may have some advantages in being able to draw on greater resources in terms of putting its application together and getting the necessary insurance and so forth but I don't think that they're given any sort of benefit when they're actually being considered. So it's nothing that an individual who had similar resources or an LLC that had similar resources would be on exactly the same footing. So I think if there's nothing there that's not that is inherent in someone being a corporate entity that couldn't be there for an individual with significant resources if you have a well-resourced corporation. We also have to remember that a lot of sole proprietors form a corporation for liability reasons and they're going to function much the same as an unincorporated sole proprietor in terms of the resources they can bring to bear so the application process might be difficult for them because they can't hire a counsel or a consultant to help them through it or they don't have those extra resources to throw at the issue but at the same time when they get in front of the local control board and the liquor control board as long as their application is thorough and just checks all the requirements and so forth they should be on equal footing. I want to get away from the liquor and alcohol terms. Okay. This part of the question. So are there different licenses required to sell, say whiskey, wine and beer? Yes. So beer and wine are sold under the same license. Whiskey and other hard alcohol requires if you're going to sell it for consumption off the premises you need to either be a state liquor agency if you're going to sell all kinds of alcohol from 16% and above or if you're just selling wines that are 16% or above you need to have a fortified wine permit. But otherwise beer and wine is the same, is grouped together. For manufacturing we group things as beer, wine and fortified wine or spirits and fortified wine. There's three different manufacturing, some sets of the manufacturing license and so if I wanted to manufacture beer and whiskey I'd need two separate licenses there not to mention my federal approvals which are pretty significant if you're doing spirits. So that's, does that answer your question? Part of that. Okay. Two parts. The second part is so, and that's what I thought you probably were going to say, but is that why you guys use two terms, liquor and alcohol? Like at the very top of your overview it says port of liquor and lottery and alcohol. So my question is, is that why you use liquor and alcohol? Within my outline, if I just go back to that for a second. Thank you. That's why I went back there. Yes. It's fishing for accomplices. So the board of liquor or just the liquor reference department of liquor control, department of liquor and lottery is to me it's an antiquated term. When we did the modernization we've switched almost everything over to alcoholic beverages. And the reason for that is liquor in most people's minds refers to higher alcohol products. And so it was confusing to people when you'd say department of liquor control but they also control beer, control wine. They control industrial alcohol and scientific alcohol. So you're grain alcohols, methanol, that sort of thing that you're not going to be selling for human consumption but you might be using to degrease a machine shop or something like that. They control permits for that as well. So that was why we've gone over to alcohol licensing to be more clear about that. So liquor is really just an old fashioned term that's stuck around because it's been in the title. Spirits, we continue to use just to refer to the higher alcohol beverages again to try to get away from any confusion over what liquor is referring to. And so that's kind of where we're at but basically the way I think of it is beer and wine and then spirits and fortified wines if I'm thinking about it or hard alcohol and everything else. So yeah. I'm very happy to hear that. Yeah, thank you. Questions for Dan here? What's this? Tax on. Great, thank you. Please let me know if you have other questions and I'm happy to, if you have questions for Michelle, I'm happy to just provide her with whatever I can. So I hope this was helpful to you. I think it was. So great. Thank you for your time. Michelle. I was just wondering if, just based on some of the questions there, but it might be helpful if I just give you a quick just a little reminder overview of what there is for licensing in this 54. And so there's the five types of licenses under which there can be several tiers within each type of license and that's determined by the board. The bill doesn't set a certain cap on the number of licenses. So previous legislation has said, oh, you can have, you know, 42 retails and you can have this or that. It doesn't set that. It's to be determined by the board. One, an applicant can only have, can have no more than one of each type of license. So you couldn't have. So I think somebody was talking about can somebody have, you know, four different retail outlets they could not under this 54. They would only be able to have one of each. And then the way that it works in terms of the initial application period is the way that it rolls out is that they first open the period for application for cultivators and I think testing labs and then that's a 30 day application period that opens for the initial application period and then that closes. The board can open it up in the later time but the idea was to do a kind of a staggered rollout for the application starting first with the grow operations and then ending with the last votes with the retailers applying for it. And so there's not, so they may initially be saying, well, we're just gonna take this, whoever applies in this 30 day period and process and we're gonna determine how many, whether we're gonna have a cap or not and then they can open it up later. And we regard to having a lot of stores congregated in one particular location. One of the, if you recall, there's a list of priorities and things that the board is supposed to consider and adopting rules for selection of applicants and one of the things that they're to consider is the geographic distribution of the applicants. So the staggered licensing plan is in recognition of the fact that once you have cultivators licensed online, you've got basically eight months before they're gonna have the product. Right, this is kind of, this was a piece that's been in a number of bills for a few years now and we had consulted with Washington State when it had gotten its program off the ground and that was one of the recommendations they made is they had a problem in that they kind of licensed folks off at the same time and so they had retailers with no product. And so they said, you know, kind of start out with your grow facilities, getting your product going, then the product manufacturers and the testers and the distributors and then your retailers come on last and that provides, it also allows you a way to be able to manage the kind of onslaught of a lot of applications coming in at the beginning and they had also recommended the 30 day window initially because they said you just get kind of crushed at the initial point there and so it doesn't mean that the window doesn't open later but for the initial offering you kind of start to roll it out and then manage it. Questions for Michelle, that anything else that you would like to be reminded of with respect to S54? And then also just on that, David did touch on it, but about the control model, you know, and we can talk about it later if you want but there's a difference when you're doing the analysis, the constitutional analysis with the controlled substances act between whether or not the state is regulating the market or whether or not they're in possession actually and distributing the campus and there's a good understanding in terms of what your risk is with regard to the fact that you're concerned about your violation of the controlled substances act. Okay. So in regards to liquor, two years back, Maine, which was very similar to Vermont, is a control state for liquor claim. They decided they, while they wanted to control it, they outsourced their wholesale distribution as opposed to Vermont, Vermont is the wholesaler of experience. But we select and have a wholesaler to keep the state out of it, but yet we control, you know, one wholesaler for the whole state. I'm not saying I want to go down that path, I'm just asking. I don't know, I mean, I think what I would say is that the closer you are to being involved in possession and distribution of a Schedule I rather than regulating other people doing it, you kind of climb the ladder of, you know, that's a concern, but we would be regulating it. If you're regulating one, as opposed to 50. Maybe. Just, whatever, I think we just have to explore things to simplify it, and again, I'm not a fan of Monopoly as well. Maybe, whatever, just sometimes these thoughts pop up. We can keep the tires as many times as we want to. So, committee, we have Dr. Levine in the chair, is anybody dying to go drink the water or stretch or shall we take a gamble that we're gonna get out of here early, if I was starting early? Thank you so much for your flexibility today. No problem. Welcome to the committee. We are doing our best to work our way through the bill proposals in S54, and would love to hear your perspective. I suspect that you might make reference to a bill that's currently across the hallway there in terms of your view on prevention activities. Thank you. So, Commissioner Mark Levine, Department of Health. Thanks for inviting me. So, these are links to reports, which I am not going to exhaustively detail in my testimony today, but you may find them quite useful because they're very timely. So, the health impact assessment was produced by the Department of Health a couple years ago and subsequently updated. And it and a document from the National Academy of Science and Generic Medicine really details what is, from an evidence-based standpoint, known or not known about the impacts of cannabis on human beings. And a whole host of health and mental health and productivity and life kind of speeders, if you will. Sully focused on cannabis. Yes, solely focused. And then the Governor's Commission on Marijuana, obviously we had an Education and Prevention Subcommittee which I chaired, which utilized data from the previous documents I referred to and came out with a set of recommendations, some of which we'll talk about in a little bit here today. And that's fairly brief reading as well. So, I would start out by saying from a public health standpoint, we already have a public health problem with regard to marijuana use. And it's particularly focused on the youngest of the homeowners. The whole reason the Governor appointed the Commission and the subcommittee was to focus on that population. We have Youth Risk Behavior Survey data. That's a survey that's administered to youth every other year and has incredibly high response rate. And we have years of data to compare. So it's a very valid tool. And the most concerning part of the recent data was that there was an increase in current use of marijuana among youth from the past two years. We're waiting for the next set of data to see if that truly makes a trend. But the trend had been stable or downward for a long time and now it was suddenly going up. When you put that usage rate together with the perception of harm that youth have for the substance, it's very concerning. Our youth are not fools. They know two thirds of them say that if they maintained a tobacco smoking habit, that would not be good for their health. When you ask them that about alcohol and cannabis, only in the 30% did they say that that's not necessarily good for their health. And likely even worse with respect to taking. Yeah, the question wasn't asked because the vaping epidemic is so new. Oh, please ask. I have a senior high school. We've had conversations about it. Yes. So I suspect, well, we're trying to bend the curve on that one, but I suspect you're right. The perception of the harm of it would be long. But it's in the news a lot now. So I'm not going to repeat the whole impact assessment, but I do want to highlight some of the important impacts specifically on youth, because these are things that we definitely know. So it can have an adverse impact on academic performance. It can have an adverse impact on long-term IQ potential. There's definitive evidence, and now there's increasing concern and evidence in the literature that the linkage between novel use of cannabis, THC, I should say probably in this regard, and a developing brain and psychosis are quite tightly linked. So not that adults cannot become psychotic, but at the same time it's more the developing brain from teenage years through age 25 that are impacted in that way. And I have very personal experience of my own practice and can vouch for that. And I dare say any physician would be able to. Youth have a more significant propensity towards dependence about three times that of adults. Early we start, and more likely that will develop. There's an association with depression and anxiety and heavy use. We know from the motor vehicle experiences in the literature and in other states that there's an increased risk of crashes and fatal crashes. And we know for adults that there can be impacts, again, not dependence, but also on economic productivity, how they work a good job, how much motivation they have, and other psychosocial outcomes. And if pregnant women should use it, and unfortunately they do in Vermont, it can be associated with a lower birth rate for the infant. When we talk about prevention and substance misuse, our common mantra these days is that we don't silo substances. Substance misuse prevention works across substances and we don't need to necessarily design a specific intervention for every single thing that human beings can take into their bodies. And we stand by that still. It turns out, but let's say Vermont does decide to commercialize the sale of marijuana products. We would state that there needs to be comprehensive and sustainable prevention efforts to protect youth. And evidence-based strategies that we use in the health department for prevention only work when they are comprehensive and sustained. Can't be a one-time affair. And right now, as you know, across the state, there's very little funding for prevention. There is some federal money for prevention. Much of it is, I'll use the word restricted in a focused... Silo. Pardon? Siloed was the service you gave me a few minutes ago. Yeah. So this time, as we talk here, is a prime opportunity to begin to discuss how to focus funds from the state, specifically on these activities. Commercializing marijuana usually implies that there will be an impact from industry that will focus on perhaps vulnerable people. So the heaviest users or the youngest users. They have a lot to lose over a long period of time. They can use over a long period of time. And those are the people we have the same public health concerns about. So as a physician and as a commissioner of health, I'm clearly focused on prevention. And my department is charged with protecting and promoting the health of overmodels. That's our mission statement. Prior to legalization, our health department obviously had a lot to say about just the legalization issue and how that would impact our youth. And I can say a lot of the same with regard to a legalized product and now having a regulated market. I'm trying to turn that off, sorry. Yeah, so the main lesson that we've learned from states that have already been through what we're going through right now is that they would have loved to have prevention money up front. They felt that their prevention money came way too late. And when I'm talking like just a little too late, it was a couple of years too late. Obviously they did set up their structures to provide revenue that would then be dedicated towards prevention, but not having it at the outset put them behind the eight ball very, very quickly. And it takes a department of health and others who are partnering with the department a fair amount of time to set up these programs. It's not like you just snap your finger and all of a sudden you have a total parking program operational. The counterparts we have in other states estimated the amount up front would be five to $10 million. So their advice obviously was to have some kind of funding up front built into the entire legislation and protect young brains when the market actually opens rather than after the fact when these young brains may have already been impacted. So I want you to keep that in mind. S54, as it's currently structured, does not include funding or requirements for prevention efforts. And I testified to that in the Senate Judiciary Committee as well. The fact that the bill would move forward then with a commercial market is aimed at Vermont's youth without any of the valuable protections that can be provided is very concerning for me. Especially when we have a good track record in prevention and know that the types of programming that we can develop and set up and that are evidence-based and that should be comprehensive and sustained, they actually work and the rate of use can decrease. So clearly I would be offering my sage wisdom in saying that S54 needs to include funding for evidence-based, comprehensive and sustainable community prevention efforts. And I went so far in the Judiciary Committee and I'll do it here as well, saying that it's not only unacceptable and irresponsible, but it's unconscionable to develop a legal marketplace for marijuana without establishing a dedicated revenue stream for education and prevention to protect public health and to protect public safety. I have a few other items I'd like to just sort of add into my talk here that are very specific and focused. I know there's been some conversation about modifying the bill in some way with regards to medical marijuana and making changes to perhaps the indications or requirements that would be out there for using medical marijuana. And the bottom line is there's nothing in the medical literature regarding new conditions that are suddenly medical marijuana is the cure, is the treatment beyond the conditions we already have, some of which I will add or not in this case. So I would certainly not think that there'd be any room for any other conditions that perhaps some of them might be advocating for. Second thing has to do with edibles. The education and prevention subcommittee was very specific and direct regarding their lack of enthusiasm for regulating edibles. When you look at states like Colorado where kids have gotten into trouble, when you look at volume of emergency room visits for pediatric populations, there's some very recent literature I just read two weeks ago that further substantiates this. There's not an insignificant amount of visits to hospitals for adverse events related to marijuana. And then within that group, there's a fairly significant group that are edibles and kid related. So we obviously have a strong sentiment against edibles period. The overall marijuana commission could not make a decision. It came down as a really split vote. So the report reflected the fact that we weren't saying no to edibles, but we weren't saying yes to edibles either. It was really divided. Also with regard to edibles, there's a clarification I should make with regarding to food licensing. The Department of Health regulates licenses in a food establishment's restaurants. Not included in something like that is actually selling marijuana products within those food establishments. It's envisioned, we would hope, that if edibles were on the market, they would continue to be sold in dispensaries. And like CBD products, not like CBD products, which are kind of now everywhere you look in society, even though there's not a lot of evidence for your benefit. But for the actual licensing of establishments to sell edibles, that's not the business that the Department of Health will be in or should be in. I just wanted to add that level of clarification. On the topic? Yes. So if someone was making edibles, would the Health Department have some real sight of the facility that's being used to manufacture those products at that point? No? No. Jim? No, maybe I misheard, but I thought we went to the medical facility and we went through the kitchen and they talked about the inspected and regulated the Health Department. They have invited the Health Department and been told we don't regulate these kind of facilities. So why would you say that? That's not our business. It's a food production facility. And we don't potentially expect the refood production to sell it. What's your license? We license the restaurant. Hi, everyone. Shayna Livingston from the Health Department just to jump in here a little bit. So the Health Department is looking to clarify. So right now, as envisioned in this bill and in front of you, edibles, if they are to be allowed, would be only sold through dispensaries. On top of that, the board, however it is defined, would then simply confer with the Health Department about what health oversight and regulations would be appropriate if they are producing edibles. And that board would have to staff and oversee that and go and do those inspections themselves. So we would be happy to provide technical assistance with the food safety aspects of that and how they would implement it. But the Health Department and our licensing technicians would not be the ones going out and inspecting that. So we are looking to clarify that in the bill that's currently drafted. In what way? So Michelle, I'll talk here unfortunately, but I did actually talk to her about it a little bit before. I'd have to share it if you'd like to. Yes. Not have to. I mean, you could also stand. We don't like to having people look down at us. Bloom. So I would have to work with her with if the committee is interested, and I would work with her to figure out the best way to crack that. Her interpretation of the bill that's currently drafted is that indeed that is the case. And that tax has actually, in Senate Finance, went in and made some similar clarifications around what is considered food and what is not considered food. And that the Health Department is here to ask that we be able to offer that similar kind of clarification in relation to our licensing. I'd be happy to take a look at that. Okay, great. So you want to license? No. No, you don't want to license. We do not want. The Health Department does not take legal decisions as a good idea, we do not want to license. We would be happy to provide any regulatory agency with how to enforce food safety regulations if they wanted to adopt them. Jim, did that answer all your questions? And then you had your hand up for a minute. No, I have other questions, but we went over them. I'll go back. I'm sorry. No, no, no. That's fine. It's on top. It's okay. Yeah, I'm just trying to stay on this topic. Sure, I totally agree with that answer, but that's okay, but we can have disagreements. J.P.? I guess I'm not clear on why. I've heard a couple of times that the Department of Health does not want to regulate this, but I'm not clear on why. Sure, so it's not our area of expertise, right? Like, we don't have regulations or limits on how much THC and how to test that food and how to make sure that that is done safely. That's not something that we are able to do. We want to ensure we have seen issues with CBD products as they are currently being sold in establishments that we do license. And so we want to make very clear, again, I don't think this is, I think it's as clear in the intent that the edibles, if they are to be utilized, it would only be sold out of dispensaries, but we want to make that crystal clear that if you have a license from us to sell food, that an edible product with THC, and it is not considered food, and that that's not to be sold in establishments with our license. And again, there are standardized FDA food safety, preparation safety guidelines, and those can be implemented and monitored by any regulatory body that, you know, adopts them as rules. And we are happy to assist the cannabis, can't remember what's called the cannabis board, with how to do that. But we do not want our staff going and doing those tools. That's not what they're trained to do. So you're suggesting that you would be happy to share, for instance, the roughly 100 point inspection form that you use when you come to my commercial kitchen, and license my kitchen, and you point out the fact that that floor tile is cracked and needs to be replaced. And, you know, this is an opportunity for a hazard here and this needs to be fixed. So you're suggesting that you would rather give that to another entity and have them do those inspections than to have you come into a kitchen where a cookie with cannabis infusion is being made. Correct. Or have it be part of whatever other license that the board is having these places here. So in the event that the cannabis control board were to look at the landscape around Vermont and say, we really don't want to recreate the wheel here, we want the Department of Health to inspect the food safety aspect of it and we'll leave the agency of agriculture in their testing lab or whoever it is that ends up doing the testing of the concentrate of cannabis. Would you be capable of doing that? So we would oppose that, we would also be, we are currently at 50% staff of what we're supposed to be according to FDA for restaurant and food license. That's why I don't see you often. I don't see you often. Sure. I don't like to be there more often. And so we would need a significant amount of staff and we would request a significant amount of staff to do that, so it might be prohibitive in terms of the cost. Other questions? Al and then Nassau. So Dr. Levine, I really appreciate your advocacy and your support for education prevention in regards to the cannabis. And I also am concerned as well. So say if the bill goes through without any meaningful or sustainable education prevention resources and tomorrow the market opens. What's it look like in three years for our young brains out there? Yeah, so we'd be really concerned about the only thing, I don't want to give you the idea there's no prevention activities going on right now. The scale and magnitude and sustained program we envision requires those resources. So yes, there'll be some messaging campaigns that youth will see on their own social media, which is fine, but certainly not the makings of a comprehensive prevention program, because messaging is sort of a necessary but never sufficient kind of ingredient. What it really requires is usually regional programs of prevention that are tailored to the communities in that specific region that involve a lot of community input, parental input and experts, if you will, input. You've heard probably talk about things like the Iceland model since they were just visiting the state house last week. Some models of that sort that go over frankly years to decades, but that still when they begin have a very comprehensive portfolio of prevention activities that involve the community level and the school kind of current. That usually requires people who full-time work in those activities to carry out these programs. So I think it would be very challenging to suddenly have cannabis on the market without especially with the perception of harm that data that I showed you and expect that we wouldn't be behind the eight balls on the start and perhaps for many years. Now some more on Jim. One is when you talk about not the inspecting help or who inspects the pharmacies and make sure that the pharmacies are passing the stuff in the state or is it just to get the product of someone who's selling? Probably. It's a little out of my scope, but I can say that it's not apples and apples what you're talking about because we're talking about the actual drug being integrated into a food substance as opposed to vitamin B and gummy bear. We're talking about the actual psycho-mattive drug in a few seconds. And the other question, I agree with you but you gotta be out ahead of it. I thought we did a good job on teaching our young man to smoke, but as you see, there's always another side that's always trying to get up in front of this, okay? So I think it has to be ongoing. It's not a, as you say, we need an initial prompt, but I think we can't drop the ball if we do that. I completely agree. Initial, robust effort and then sustained it. A little while ago, I think you were talking about your investigation with what other states were doing in terms of medication prevention and the number of five to $10 million came up. Was that specifically a Vermont number or is that what some of these other states were talking about? Okay, so we perhaps could scale that to size because whichever states you were talking about are bigger than Vermont. Yeah, like Washington and Colorado, you know. I don't think there are any that are smaller than Vermont, yeah. Right, so we could, that was just my thought. Can we scale that to a Vermont effort, some sort of capital adjustment? Yeah, I mean, we have scaled it, if you will, to a $68 million number, because... Yeah, right, I guess I'm thinking my good friends don't know ways to mean to committee what they're going to do. So what do you want to think when they hear $68 million and replace that with 10 million? No, I hear you. Find that. So when you're talking about some of the school-based activities, they usually require what's joined like a substance abuse professional in the school. And we have that in about one-third of Vermont schools now. So just the cost of that scaling up is real money because that's two-thirds of the schools in Vermont. And this regional approach to prevention that I've been discussing still requires the millions of dollars, whether you're a state that's shaped like Colorado or shaped like Vermont, you still have regions that all have the unique flavors that can lead that kind of structural support to carry out the program. So it's not quite so easy to say we could scale it down. Both geographically, it's difficult to scale it down, but I understand where you're coming. Sure, we can't find $25,000 extra for anything. Right, let me know these days. And I understand why. Thank you. Jim? So I appreciate your advocacy, as was mentioned before, about wanting to do an education program. Can you give us some meat on the bones with that? I mean, what is it? I mean, $6 to $8 million, but I'm not gonna help us all because we don't have $6 to $8 million to put into this. I do agree it's gotta be part and parcel to whatever we do, if we do anything. Even if we do nothing, it should be there. So we need some structure, you know? This is what it looks like. Ideally, you get this, but you could do a good effort with why. So that would be very helpful. The other question I have related to all of that is, in the states that have gone, ahead of us that have gone to a retail market, after been any change in youth access that we can measure, or anybody that's measured. Maybe that's not possible. And so youth access, meaning? Younger than 21. Younger than 21. Right. I'm not sure about the data on that. Probably too early, but since we legalized it last July, have there been any change in Vermont access or youth? Youth? I mean it's still illegal, in either case. Right, because youth can get a hold of things anyway. Right. So we're counting on the next survey, and I should get us that data for it. And what do you do with that? This year, 2009. I just, No, I'm okay. Sometimes, you know. No, you want data too. Doing it at home, where we sort of put it in this, out of sight, out of mind, but we could have made it worse, as opposed to a regulated retail market. I'm not saying we did, but we could have. Yeah, I understand where you're coming from, because at home, youth have access to whatever there is at home. Try it. So can't argue against that. Okay, so finally, what I heard you say is, you don't like animals. And it was an education for me to go to, in this century, last week, week before. In that, what hit home to me is, there's a delay. So you might have a brownie, and you don't feel anything, so you might have a second brownie. So that made me think, well maybe, First problem is eating a whole brownie. Never eat a whole brownie. Maybe that's not a good idea. On the other hand, it's sort of like if I have a drink, I feel it pretty quickly. So I know I'm not, maybe not to have that second drink. So I am concerned about that. But on the other hand, unless people around this room know things, I don't know, I'm a little naive about some of this. You smoke it, or you vape it, right? It's quicker than. It's quicker, but I'm not sure that's the type of behavior you want to say, vaping or smoking is okay. So you say we're focusing people on the more unhealthy ways to adjust the product because we're forbidding them from doing it. I'm just curious in your thoughts on that, obviously, we've made a lot of progress on reducing smoking. We still have ways to go. No, so you're? So I'm just, I don't want to say it's okay to smoke now. Right. So the one point I'll start out by saying is we're talking about the concentration of THC and whatever root we're using and whatever product we're using. And THC is a psychoactive ingredient and a cannabis of 2,000 teens compared to 20 or more years before is a whole different product. Okay. It is far more potent so that no matter what root, the potency factor is increased over what anybody might remember from the past few years. So we should have the health department regulate that. Well, we won't go there. While you were inspecting the kitchen. We're not doing it now with the homegrown. We regulate numbers of plants. I get off. Do you often just? No, I'm good with that. So, but the reason I'm going to protect youth is because youth can more readily pick up something that's edible, perhaps knowing what's in it or perhaps not knowing what's in it. And it packs a potent punch. And if you don't know on the first round because you didn't give it enough time and you're still hungry, that's why I want to have a second time. It also looks just like my problem at dinner is I eat my food very fast. Yes. I'm still hungry. So the other thing is... It's gotten to my brain that I'm really hungry. We would assume within the legislation and some of it's been covered in prior legislation it would be safeguards built in so that if edibles were permissible it would not be child friendly, so to speak. So the types of products, light candy and recognizable products that are the same in every way except they happen to have THC in it. We would assume that there would be restrictions and regulations regarding that point of sale, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. And in the document I referred to from my committee we have a whole list of those kinds of safeguards. We are to the meet on the bones in prevention programs. Without getting into the weeds, we have messaging campaigns, we have school-based prevention activities, some of which involve the actual people who are connecting with students, advising them, counseling them, but also responding to them as trusted mentors if you will when they have problems. We've seen with the SAPs in the schools to date that those relationships actually form very nicely and are worth expanding. Plus there's curriculum in schools. Within the communities, models like the Iceland models do take time to develop, but they involve important ingredients and these ingredients may sound intuitive but they actually take time to develop. One of the ingredients is actually talking to the youth themselves about the things that they want to be doing or can't do because they're not available in their community. We talk about the so-called third space which is the after-school component. The most dangerous time being between 3 and 6 p.m., 3 and 7 p.m., depending on what hours you want to use because they're not in school, they're not exactly with family and at home, and whatever happens in that space happens. It's a very productive and constructive thing that can happen in that space and we're actually starting to fund some of that in a very preliminary way across the state to really make sure that it's not just sports either. Sports is a big component but it's all kinds of other activities. Countries like Finland call them hobbies. Iceland, they have a lot of leadership activities. They empower youth. They have a lot of activities that youth can become proficient at something good and feel like they're a contributing part of their community. Another important component is parental activation, if you will. Parents have to really buy into this as much as their kids and support their kids in these activities and in this kind of a structure. And then there's a community activation piece that has to happen where communities actually all envision the kind of community they want to live in and that they want their kids to grow up in and provide the support for actually making that actualization. So there's a lot of very, I would call it intense work but work that everybody actually wants to do and recognizes this good work to keep youth out of trouble, keep them feeling empowered in many ways, having a voice, but also having them feel like they're a contributing part of the community because the other part of our youth risk behavior survey data shows that unfortunately high levels of youth don't feel connected in the community, feel socially isolated and that leads to depression, suicidal ideations, things of that sort. In addition to that, if you further look at it from a whole population standpoint there are segments of the population that have it even worse than what I've described. So if we look at socioeconomically disadvantaged people, if we look at LGBTQ community, we look at racial, you pick your parameter, you will inevitably find that they score worse on some of these adverse circumstances than I've mentioned. So we have to be very focused sometimes on how we do our prevention because there's an actual part of our population that would benefit so much more than anyone else and we don't want them to be forgotten. So I have spent a great deal of time in my life working with young people first as a teacher and as a coach and as a mom and I know that the most effective approach to keeping kids on healthy behaviors and on a healthy trajectory is the relationship that they have with an adult, a trusted adult in their life and is the combination of real, accurate information that says this is not a healthy behavior and full and open access to a variety of things that are healthy. And that's where I fear we are going to fall on our faces because we don't do a good enough job when I look at what has happened in my community in the last 10 years in terms of the narrowing of options for kids to be involved in after school activities there's no longer an afternoon bus so kids in a rural community unless they have a mom or a dad come down into town to pick them up can't participate in the play they can't do the after school club they can't go on the snowboarding trip or the ski trip that gets home at 5 o'clock they can't participate in sports these are all really resource intensive supports that are really critical to keeping kids involved, connected and active in ways that will be vastly more effective than simply having substance abuse professional in every building saying don't do it. So I want to work with the Department of Health and the administration to make sure that we're putting forward our best mutual efforts at how we achieve the kind of substance abuse prevention push and pull that we need to unfortunately the frustrating thing is we're referring to all of these model countries who have actually figured it out and know how to do it and these are all the big bad socialist countries that take all of your money away from you and thou shalt not because we're Americans and we do it better sorry to be glib about it but they're making an investment they're making a conscious investment and they're young people because they've seen the ill effects of leaving kids to kind of float and test with whatever they have access to that looks like fun how are we going to what are you proposing to show us as a citizen legislature that we can support and how we move us along that model so you know I appreciate everything you just said and when we talk about how to shave the five to ten million dollars it's really hard when you hear stuff like this because it takes resources we actually have a country in the southwestern corner the southeastern corner no country in the southeastern corner of Vermont it's called Deerfield Baptist so when you talk about Finland when you talk about Iceland how did they start they looked at their data kind of data we retired and said we are alarmed at the rate of our kids using X, Y and Z substances not only that they're out to four in the morning in the case of Iceland because it's daylight there half the year at four in the morning and they're just doing bad things and they learned that from their parents who did the same we need to make a change in that so models like that be going that way well Deerfield Valley had the same beginning too they had an infusion of fund monies from the health department and elsewhere for a regional as we call it a regional prevention partnership and invested it in much the same way that these other countries did and had the exact same curve now this is over 10 to 20 years this isn't over three months to six months over 10 to 20 years they have the same curve except the numbers are a little different Iceland and Finland have achieved much better numbers than we have in Vermont but the fact is we have come down substantially and we can show you this data and it's very compelling data when you can say if they can do it down there why can't we do it elsewhere and throughout the state because of the opioid epidemic we have coalitions developing on their own like the Chittin County Opioid Alliance Project Vision in Rutland PITR in Newport now I mean I can go on and on they're all over the state they're not all over the state and they don't have this kind of money and this kind of vision right now they have a vision for how they want their community to look because they don't want needles on the street and they don't want to have people who are succumbing to overdoses from opioids so they have a good reason to have their coalition drawn together but they're at the point where they want prevention too and just like you're speaking it does cost resources but if the evidence is based behind it can be shown and people are convinced as I know they will be that the programming we talk about works it changes the equation the way I see it because we're dealing with opioids now when the threshold is dealing with cannabis we still have alcohol which we should never forget about because it's still on number one I have high schoolers we're dealing with cannabis so we're dealing with all these things and tomorrow we could be dealing with stimulant drugs so it has to be a program that works for all the reasons you stated that engage youth engage parents and communities in ways that will just know that the outcome is going to be better and we don't have to worry about the new kid on the block that's the drug of concern it's any substance at all so you helped me state that well I appreciate it a model for tobacco use many years ago to reduce youth rates of smoking and is it possible that some of the ingredients that went into that formula that seemed to work pretty well could be translated into prevention programs for cannabis I know that along with some print which really wasn't used that much but there were clever inexpensive TV ads from LVX grants were given to communities where they presented their ideas for their community to reduce cannabis for tobacco at that time and and then people would review that and say we're going to pick these these are the best and those communities would receive some funds from the health department and you even had youth come to the state capital who were in organized groups to help the adults help youth campaign against tobacco so all of that some of that's happening and you don't know it because again it's on social media and you don't see but if I had to tell you I've had to ask you I should never put a legislator on the spot but I'm going to what do you think the most successful part of an anti-tobacco campaign for one has been in terms of what was implemented was it the things you talked about or is it something that I'm going to mention probably something you're going to mention so there's two things I'm going to mention sorry because for tobacco the CDC and other on gust bodies says there's a tripod a tripod type kind of one is messaging campaigns the second is interfering with people's ability to smoke comfortably in a sense so laws that passed for secondhand smoke restricting where you can raising prices and then the third part is taxation and I know there's been some discussion about the level of taxation in trying to find that sweet spot where you can fund all these wonderful programs make some money perhaps as a state but also where the black market or grey market or whatever you want to call it won't be as potent an adversary to do with so I know that there's been numbers thrown around in many circles but certainly the commission the marijuana commission I believe recommended the 20% excise tax and the 6% sales tax 26% tax which is the number that does fund the kinds of things we're talking about so if we learn from big tobacco we always say that alcohol, cannabis you name the industry, they learn from big tobacco because they have a very strong flavor if we learn from our experience from that in big tobacco it should be to realize that these taxation routes and these access routes are really prime areas to focus on I'm worried that if your pack of American spirits had to go up against you know somebody's home grow that they were selling on the black market that are tobacco tax revenue would plummet very quickly so I think we need to obviously the committee downstairs is going to do a lot of work on the taxation level but one of the one of the fundamental areas of focus I think needs to be in how do we in moving out of prohibition how do we try to bring the black market not snuff it out I don't think we're going to snuff it out I think we're going to have to figure out if we can bring it in and taxation rates we're going to have some influence on that John and then Jim I have two questions I believe it's very important that prevention be looked at very carefully unfortunately in this bill the bill is currently drafted barely or doesn't pay for the cannabis control board let alone for a prevention manner methods or anything like that do you have any thoughts about how we can fund a prevention program either through the budget the general fund or through a different mechanism taxation mechanism or licensing mechanism so that we can put in place prevention at the beginning not halfway through the process early on it's probably outside my scope of influence in state government to as a health commissioner but are there models out there taxation funding through taxation taxation is the model unfortunately but did any state have a tax system set up so that there was prevention right from the beginning and what I heard you say is that did not happen so that those models at least what other states have done today did not lead to a I do know that in the initial this won't provide $5 million I know that in the initial licensing issues that all happen up front there's a fair amount of administrative stuff that has to happen up front before you start selling your product there is opportunity for some of those revenues to be utilized in new ways so a lot of those revenues is supposed to go to pay for the administrative infrastructure that's required to run this operation from the state perspective but one could actually divert it to this kind of activity knowing that the state will still get what it needs eventually over time if they don't get it the moment that happens am I clear about that? yeah but I mean it would be good to hear solutions for financing because at the end of the day there's likely to be a lot of revenue through the retail sale of cannabis so how can we get to the point that we can have prevention at the front end and not in the middle or at the back end for instance the board is set up and S54 contemplates borrowing against anticipated receipts in order to fund the activities of setting up the regulatory structure of the board salaries their executive director any contracting they might need to do for technical expertise in how to regulate this very new industry conceivably within the agency of human services you could propose a similar structure that would maybe at least get the groundwork the network of these regional programs that you think will be very valuable in youth prevention and you know I mean I heard secretary go bay at the press conference the other day say very clearly there's no money to do this unless we have tax and regulate so how can we come together you know endorse a plan and a concept and put it into motion you know I do want to stress I think that this other states have really seen this thing of their playing catch-up and that's a huge problem but I think what you've hopefully what you've heard from the commissioner is the model that we can cite here in Vermont is your build-up model that is a decades long program what we're here saying is exactly what the chairs said that this needs to be for substance use prevention across the board doesn't have to be substance specific has to be sustained so we can do these comprehensive programs in order to do that what we're saying is we need a dedicated revenue stream that is going to continue to come in that's not the federal grants that come and go and up and down and have all these streams attached to them and that when we look at S-54 as it's currently drafted it does not have any language saying we need that tax revenue and like you said there will be tax revenue we'll go to that long term and that as a public health model is the most important thing that we can tell you we can go on and on about all the different ways in which we can do prevention et cetera et cetera but none of it matters unless it is funded and right now in S-54 it's not funded and there's no way to guarantee that funding will go to prevention work and that as a public health agency that is the most concerning I wanted to shift to the second question which goes to the taxation issue I know high taxes tend to lead to less consumption of various products but if you look at the Senate I can't take this inside as my own but if you look at the Senate fiscal note you actually see revenue increasing even though we're taxing marijuana because usage is increasing but the price is dropping so is the current taxation model that's proposed in S-54 the correct taxation model which is 16 yeah 16 plus 2% auction tax I think even if we went up to 21 you're going to see the same results because the price of the product is going to be dropping dramatically so you're right I know that it's your correct I think what's happened is the price has gone down the revenues have still gone up and I think one of the things that we're doing right now the House has done and the Senate is looking at this tax and these cigarettes what level that would be appropriate at and I don't have an exact interview on that but that might need to be adjusted I think the chair's point with the black market is you're not going to know what's going to happen in California like it's thriving or a gray market what do we call it so I think that that's definitely a piece that that's going to be in the middle but in terms of excise taxes like the commissioners said you're looking at them to drive the price up to the point where some kid is not going to be able to afford or not going to want to afford to start and that people are going to want to use less of a small tool that we can't I'm not sure we are going to put right now to tell you a tax rate that would work because I'm not sure we know what the prices are going to be I think we showed you when I came in here about the E6 the graph that shows that each time a new tax was placed on tobacco products there was a subsequent fall in adult and youth usage quite nicely correlated so higher taxes do have the impact we want but all we can tell you is from a public health standpoint using public health data you keep increasing the tax you keep decreasing the number of individuals so sort of going back to my first question and maybe I just missed this and reviewed the governor's advisory commission of reporting on marijuana but how does the governor fund prevention and his recommendations from the beginning or is that money coming from I totally speak for him but I don't believe he actually spoke to me so he didn't have a solution either he only spoke to the issues of prevention and driver impairment needing to be told to what he was saying thank you can I go back to an issue before that can I just ask Warren first did you have a question on this topic yeah I wanted to talk to Warren first John and the doctor tobacco is very different than cannabis we have a thriving black market for cannabis we don't have a thriving black market for tobacco unless you want to drive to the aquasizony mohawk reservation so when you raise the tax on tobacco it's no surprise that consumption drops but if we raise the tax on cannabis past some point the black market simply thrives so it's very different in that regard I think you can't make a really strong correlation between the two because it's so different I understand we are coming from but I would ask that that doesn't necessarily dictate that we start to run no we may not be as high as a vision but should not be so low that you've taken care of the black market but usage is just widespread so the sweet spot is what's hard to find it's a little bit of a blind spot at this moment honestly building a plan while flying it so Jim and then Marcia and is that I see a hand over here somewhere Bob Jim so two issues initially you mentioned the impact it was having on developing brain age 22 suggesting the age B-25 oh if I was going to come out with a naive but informed public health your king for the day yes but we understand that it's 21 so my second question is maybe you folks know something that you can read into this that I can but food manufacturing facilities are clearly under the purview of the health market food manufacturer includes bakeries so it begs the question why aren't you inspecting them or lysing them the only exemption is maple yes well and we didn't want you you know adding a license to all of our sugar shacks but I mean it's clear there's no exemption because they were telling you those open rafters they're going to drop something into your I know I know I'm sorry I just can't I can't let go now before me so I'm sorry yeah no this committee is contemplating entirely new market so we so the FDA I want to go back to your question a little bit the FDA regulates drugs so they inspect the drug manufacturers they inspect the drug we don't do that the health department is not involved in inspecting drugs we don't do any of that work and that's not something that we can say oh yeah that's safe for human consumption we don't want to be I understand a little bit and that's not well we are asking for this new statute to be clear that that's not a part of what we do that's what we're at are clear that it is part of what we do that's what we're at showing money as we can barely visit the chairs you know I'm going to say that to all of you guys oh don't worry I'll see you after that I'm not asking she's not talking about that it's fine it gives a fair amount of anxiety when I text message from my employees that say health inspector is here today and I say oh good I hope you were ready Jim does that answer your question for the moment I will let them talk about it you'll talk around I'm sorry I just I got a cue going but Rob is it on this topic yeah sort of I think I know it is I'll keep it on this topic and then we're going to go to Marsha I just want to talk about your place it's part of the issue the fact that you inspecting there would be there in an official capacity and doesn't that don't you run a fowl of some federal issues as far as you know it is condoning the federal level of parts of it doesn't that put the state employees in a tough position yeah that's all we would have to have our lawyers fully fed back because right now we're operating under the hope that we would be exempted that would be a thing to investigate I think it's the other we can get more out of that we're trying to throw a lifeline that's okay we'll take it this would be a collaborative relationship Marsha I know I'm sorry just be happy thank you well question, comment we're going to make an entrance so going back to the tax issue in the mid 1990s Vermont increased its tax on spirits buying quite a lot up to a 25% retail tax and the sales dropped to less than half of what they had been before and everyone went right next door to New Hampshire so people find alternate markets and some of these products where they can get the same thing for a certain price but I understand where you're coming from on the tobacco that did work well every time the price went up we would get people to report just do that to New Hampshire as well that'd be great it's like it can go right across the board yeah frankly we're worried about that with the e-cigarette issue because we have one of the pieces of legislation you're entertaining is the tobacco 21 and New York just did that yesterday and the governor will sign it because the governor proposed it in the first place the legislature said being so sure of the sign Massachusetts has already done that New Hampshire doesn't show any signs of doing that but again the case we made was that only 1 to 2% of sales of these tobacco products are going to 18 to 20 year olds so it's not going to decimate a border merchant by not selling cigarettes to 18 to 20 year olds in terms of they've lost all their business to New Hampshire because that's a very small piece of the market it'd be interesting when all the brownies and cookies come up with a seminar because the eggs were bad and somebody says who's looking down that's fair but more to my original point I signed it to be sad that we're looking at trying to find a funding source for education and prevention for a problem that the attorney general just filled us in this morning is and has been existing for a long time so at this point the horse is out of the barn running across the field with the saddle trying to get a free ride it's just really sort of weird that's why it takes a decade to show a difference but again if I can do a parallel to the opioid crisis we have an entire generation of people that are afflicted and we're dealing with that and we've got robust treatment and recovery systems etc etc etc we've got proper strategy as you name it we now are turning our attention towards we don't want connection so as a society that's sort of the kind of things that are harder to do but the things that we have to do otherwise problems perpetuate them there's more to the chair's conversation about doing things that need to be done rather than until they should have been done any other questions for Dr. Rubin or do you have anything else that you would like to leave us with no I think we've covered pretty much everything I will say the senate health and welfare committee did ask the same question but then they tried to answer it themselves they have to hook a lot easier they tried to answer it themselves and know how challenging it could be but at the same time did feel sort of they are the health committee's part of it they really felt a commitment towards pursuing this for them because they agreed it couldn't be ignored and I think my point to you today is just that to have a bill that doesn't even think about it to talk about it explicit about the word even just doesn't seem responsible so in the few years that I've been in this building working on really earnest really life or death you know access to healthcare and health and watching really good policy move into the juggernaut of the money committee and go up onto the wall and spend the rest of the biennium there there's only there's two components that have the greatest chance of getting a default yes on any initiative and I know that you know what these components are and I'm just going to say it for the benefit of the committee and the folks around the room it has to be in the governor's budget in January and it has to have the strong support of the policy committee that is the only kind of program that gets a default yes to the 11 members around the table and the appropriations committee room and so my hope is I think you're sensing that we have a lot of interest in supporting what looks like an appropriate youth prevention and public health outreach program so we've got our yes thank you thanks for being here	{ "url":

So we're gonna check out ten biggest WWE Royal rumble botches that left Vince McMahon angry sometimes Bots just happen. It's just a part of wrestling. It's just gonna happen It's unpredictable and a lot of times, you know, if it's you know one of those type of situations where it's so noticeable Everyone can see it. It can mess up a pace of a match But at the end of the day is it's part of wrestling and you know Vince McMahon is he's very particular Especially when it comes to certain events, especially the Royal rumble So if there's any botches in the Royal rumble, you know, he's gonna be angry. That's just how Vince is and you know That's just what the situation is. So we're gonna check out some of these moments where There was a botch and Vince got upset the one I can think of off-top is the Kofi Kingston trying to land Like land like on the barricade and his feet not touched the ground But the feet actually touched the ground so they had to call in audible feet actually touched the ground And he had to be eliminated before he was supposed to I can I can pretty much tell you I'm sure Vince was like what the hell Kofi? God damn it. You weren't supposed to be eliminated. You're black You're supposed to be athletic. How did you mess that up? Oh? Man, I'm pretty sure it went something like that. I don't know. Let's get right to this one Let's do the thing once the Royal Rumble is without question One of the most exciting scheduled matches on the WWE calendar the match has been prone to some incredibly memorable botches over The most infamous of these took place in 2005 when the planned finish of the Royal Rumble match went completely wrong and Vince McMahon Stormed down to the ring tearing his quads in the process Outside of this iconic botch there have been some unbelievable botches in the decorated history of the match that need to be seen to be believed Whoa, join us now as WrestleMania looks at ten of the most insane Watches I'll go subscribe to live for WrestleMania if you haven't already be sure to subscribe and hit that notification bell for daily wrestling videos And follow us on Facebook for exclusively is also check out our new channel WrestleMania shorts number 10 Randy Orton's pyro botch Randy Orton would win his first Royal Rumble in 2009 and his win was supposed to help further the ongoing storyline between himself and the McMahon family It was traditionally custom for the winner of the Royal Rumble. They usually point a match wasn't that entertaining as it should have been for that few but the feud was fun It's just a matter of WrestleMania didn't live up to the hype to the WrestleMania sign then extensive pyro will be summoned However in 2009 the pyro malfunctioned meaning that what pointed at the WrestleMania sign and nothing happened Oh, damn time. Orton had documented issues with his anger And it was evident that what was getting more and more irritated Orton then attempted it once again only for it to finally work Bunch from WWE's pyro team as you should have had the pyro in question ready, but of course States can unfortunately happen in all areas of production Yo, I had to stop the reaction real quick to let you guys know that this video is sponsored by hello fresh You got any new year's goals?

Let's get right back into the reaction Number nine John Cena's terrible landing The 2004 iteration of the Royal Rumble was widely praised at the time But since the match was won by Chris Benoit the matches rarely acknowledged and has been labeled as the forgotten Royal Rumble Yep, but upon rewatching the match back the matches a clear indication that John Cena was the next top guy in the company Is used without a question one of the most Over wrestlers in the match the crowd reaction to his elimination spoke volumes when it came to fan interest in him at the time Cena's elimination in the 2004 Rumble was unfortunately botched. There was immediate concern for Cena's welfare Cena would be eliminated by the big show and his leg landed awkwardly. Oh, Cena was instantly hurt Oh my god, MCL, but Cena somehow didn't miss any substantial time away from WWE television I remember watching that back and it's just It made me cringe just the way he landed it looked like he tore something It was once again wrestling just a few days later, which is crazy number eight Titus O'Neill's failed elimination The 2015 Royal Rumble was an uttered. We've heard about this one Vince McMahon getting mad cuz he didn't Eliminate himself in the timely manner. Vince was upset in the back reports were saying disaster for WWE They booked the match completely backwards and it resulted in one of the worst rumble matches of all time Due to the match ending itself being so poorly received and many fans overlooked the boxers in the match itself One of these took place with Titus O'Neill's elimination The plan was for O'Neill to enter the match and immediately be eliminated by Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins But O'Neill somewhere hilariously couldn't get over the ropes. Yeah, it was awkward And the spy had to be redone which didn't look the best upon execution This would be the first of two Royal Rumble boxes for O'Neill as just three years later He would notoriously slip and slide under the greatest Royal Rumble Number seven Kofi Kingston's luck runs out Kingston has crafted out an impressive Royal Rumble legacy without without even winning the match Kingston has been able to avoid elimination in some of the most exciting ways imaginable and these have now become Royal Rumble highlights each year 2022 unfortunately his luck ran out as his elaborate rumble save was botched Kingston would enter the match at number 24 and when he was pushed off the top rope by Kevin Owens Kingston landed on the barricade it appeared that Kingston was holding himself upon the barricade avoiding letting his feet hit the floor But sadly his feet had already touched the ground WWE would replay the spot and it was ruled that Kingston was indeed eliminated They received credit for not insulting the viewers intelligence and it was appreciated that WWE called it in a legitimate manner Which I can definitely appreciate because WWE they will sit up there and try to make it seem as if You know, oh, no, he made it. No They once they show the replay people could see it No, he was out. They got they had to call it fair Stone Cold Steve Austin's accidental elimination The 1996 Royal Rumble pay-per-view so Stone Cold Steve Austin make his WWE debut as the ringmaster They had huge plans for his character and booking plans called for Austin to make it until the final four of the match Unfortunately, there was just one issue Austin was accidentally eliminated early and subsequently wasn't able to make it to the final four Accidental elimination occurred when the future Rikishi Charged at Austin with a clothesline with a little too much force and Austin stumbled right over the top rope Hilariously Vince McMahon who was on commentary decided to outright ignore it When his commentary partner, Mr. Perfect mentioned it McMahon had no choice but to state that Austin was indeed eliminated Austin would discuss his infamous botch on his podcast and this is what the WWE legend had to say We were at the Royal Rumble and I was supposed to be finishing fourth in the match So your first year in the company and you're gonna be the fourth to last guy left in the ring That's a pretty good rub. I was doing a spot with that. I believe it was far, too I can't remember one of the Samoans man. You had a lot of baby oil on And so the ropes were very slippery I was gonna do a deal where he does something to me And I was gonna take a bump over the top hang on to the top rope come back in the bottom Well, zip zip boom. I lost my grip fell out on my keyster down by the guardrail The great Kali forgets about the hard camera WWE Hall of Fame is great Kali has been known to botch move on to in his career But his botch at the 2007 Rumble was a line laughable when Kali made his entrance in cleared house This was to set up the undertaker entering the match and subsequently eliminating the seven-foot giant Upon cleaning house in the match Kali missed his cue and forgot to pose in front of the hard camera Michaels could see that Kali was posing towards the wrong camera And he had no choice but to break character and inform him to pose over towards the correct side of the arena It's incredibly obvious what HPK was saying Ultimately will have had the same effect if HPK didn't take control of the situation Alex Riley almost ruins the 2011 Royal Rumble One of the main storyline aims of 2011's Royal Rumble was to develop the few between the Miz and John Cena ahead of WrestleMania 27 The Miz's protege Alex Riley would be a big part of this But his early accidental elimination in the Rumble match through a spanner in the works Riley would slip over the top rope just three minutes in the match WWE had to rethink how they were gonna handle Cena's elimination as initial plans called for Riley to eliminate Cena with the help of the Miz WWE quickly improvised and had already eliminated Riley which would distract Cena only for the Miz who was on commentary at the time to enter the match and Eliminate Cena number three a major botch turns into a storyline The Rocks defining moment was to be at the 2000 Rumble as it would win the match and get set to headline WrestleMania 16 The only problem was that the finish of the Rumble match was botched meaning that technically the Rock didn't even win the match And the match victory should have been awarded to the Big Show Yeah, the finish of the match saw Big Show attempt to throw the rock over the top rope only for the great one to hold on And then the Big Show would fall to the floor This spot sounded great on paper But the Rocks feet sadly touched the floor before the Big Show's meaning that the finish was completely botched They decided to tend this into a storyline where Big Show would declare that he was the rightful winner of the match Which was a smart thing to do is it would have been nonsensical for the which was good that they called that audible Because it's like well you have to because you can clearly see his feet touch the floor first Big Show feet is still in the air So it Did the match work as well? Some people have mixed feelings about this match in particular, but they I'm glad that they once again didn't insult people's intelligence And kind of just turned it into an angle a storyline going into WrestleMania that year WWE to ignore such a huge blunder number two backstage chaos at the 2022 Royal Rumble shame man Man didn't have his finest showing at the 2022 Royal Rumble as his antics both backstage And in the ring led to his own father Vince McMahon firing him Yeah, my man was pushing for himself to be the star of the match Which naturally didn't go down well with other talents and his performance in the match was less than stellar One of the major botches mukman was involved in took place before he'd even come down to the ring The rumble running order declared that the WWE great Randy Orton would enter the match at number 28 whilst mukman would enter at 29 however when the time came for what to make his entrance McMahon's entrance music played Accidentally meaning that Shane had to quickly make his entrance According to backstage reports who found the botch incredibly funny. I was reportedly almost on the floor for a laughter Number one WWE production miss an iconic spear Botches don't just happen with wrestlers themselves as WWE's production team are prone to making huge blunders from time to time Yeah, take for instance the 2020 Royal Rumble as Edger just come out of retirement after nine years and they delivered his first spear However, for whatever reason yeah camera panned away Celebrating the fact that they miss such an iconic moment was heavily criticized by fans Edger's first spear back was Dolph Ziggler and Ziggler was furious as he decided to take to Twitter to air his grievances And who cuts away from an official in-ring return while two opponents are running towards each other people made mistakes We all do I have made time, but this being said a very special moment was inexplicably missed anyone Got a cell phone It's the truth, bro. How do you if I'm just rocking production I'm staying on edge as soon as he gets in the ring you can cut away to people's reaction afterwards But geez do better who cuts away from an official in-ring return while two opponents are running towards each other People make mistakes. We all do that made turns that being said a very special moment was inexplicably missed You know and got cell phone footage the backlash to the production botch was so severe that WWW would edit footage of the rumble instead of panning way the official footage of the 2020 rumble now includes the shot of the spear There we go, they made it right even though it should have happened live so But yeah, man, this was another good one, you know royal rumble is right around the corner So we're gonna keep checking out these roll rumble related videos comment down below Let me know your your I guess you can say the most infamous royal rumble match Botch you can think of if it wasn't in this video Let me know down below, but I appreciate all the love and support you guys have shown on the channel roll to 150k and I am still Yeah, and just be the YouTube wrestling champ of the world. Appreciate y'all kicking with me. See you next time.

UC2TXq_t06Hjdr2g_KdKpHQg	34C3 - Tracking Transience - deutsche Übersetzung	https://media.ccc.de/v/34c3-9281-tracking_transience Hasan Elahi is an interdisciplinary artist working with issues in surveillance, privacy, migration, citizenship, technology, and the challenges of borders. An erroneous tip called into law enforcement authorities in 2002 subjected Elahi to an intensive investigation by the FBI and after undergoing months of interrogations, he was finally cleared of suspicions. After this harrowing experience, Elahi conceived “Tracking Transience” and opened just about every aspect of his life to the public. Predating the NSA’s PRISM surveillance program by half a decade, the project questions the consequences of living under constant surveillance and continuously generates databases of imag- ery that tracks the artist and his points of transit in real-time. Although initially created for his FBI agent, the public can also monitor the artist’s communication records, banking transactions, and transportation logs along with various intelligence and government agencies who have been confirmed visiting his website. Hasan Elahi https://fahrplan.events.ccc.de/congress/2017/Fahrplan/events/9281.html	[ "tuwat", "leipzig", "congress", "chaos", "2017", "Art & Culture", "Day 4", "Saal Borg", "German (deutsche Übersetzung)", "34c3 deu", "Hasan Elahi", "34c3" ]	2017-12-30T18:47:57	2024-02-05T07:29:05	3,459	5R_eMiECcTU	Chaos, Kommunikation, Kongress in der Übersetzung von Michael und Philipp. Unser nächster Vortragende wartet auf diese unglaublich große Publikum, der ihn unterstützen wird auf seinem Vortrag. Er wird mit uns teilen, wie er das FBI über sich informiert. Er ist ein Sportsmann in Kommunikation mit dem FBI und ich bitte um Applaus. Lassen sind die Besten. Oh, das ist... Das ist zu mir wichtig. Die Errorung beginnt mit Sinn. Okay, das unter dem roten Pfeil, das bin ich. Die letzten Tage waren unglaublich, oder? Ein unglaublich intensiver Kongress. Die letzten Tage, das ist eine große Ehre für mich hier. In diesem Saalklag den letzten Timeslot zu belegen. Und ich danke euch auch, dass ihr hier seid und mit mir gemeinsam den letzten Tag hier in Klark in dem Saal zu vollenden, den Kongress. Das ist mein erstes Mal hier auf dem Kongress und auf der Bühne. Ich denke, dass ich relativ technologisch versiert bin. Und ich komme hier auf die Bühne und ich spreche... Ich habe das fast das Gefühl, dass ich eine komplett andere Sprache spreche. Ich habe keine Ahnung, was passiert. Manche Vorträge hier sind so detailliert und spezifisch. Ich habe hier überhaupt nicht mal was diskutiert. Aber ich werde meinen Vortrag in einer ein bisschen anderen Art und Weise halten. Ich erzähle euch eher eine Story, nämlich über das, was ich tue. Ich bin ein Künstler und ich werde alle möglichen Arten von Namen genannt. Manchmal bin ich ein Skulptur, manchmal bin ich ein Fotograf, manchmal bin ich ein Schwindler. Es ist also komisch, in diesem Versammlung zu sein, vor allem nach den Vorträgen, die in letzter Zeit waren, daran anzuschließen. Aber okay, mein Leben bei ich erzähle euch mal die Story, wie das mit diesem roten Pfeil passiert ist. Ich werde euch ein paar meiner Arbeiten zeigen. Und hauptsächlich werde ich fokussieren auf das eine Projekt, das ich mache, was ich Tracking Transients nenne, übersetzt die Verfolgung der Vergänglichkeit. Und ich zeige euch mal, was das ist. Und so schaut das aus, das ist es. Ihr könnt ins Internet gehen, ihr könnt mich jederzeit verfolgen. Da gibt es diesen einen Pixel Pfeil, ein Pfeil, der auf einer Garte zeigt, wo ich bin. In diesem Projekt wurde 2002 gestartet. Und im Jahr 2002 habe ich angefangen, mich selbst als Pixel zu sehen. Wenn man einen selbst als nur als Pixel sieht, dann ist es so komisch. Heutzutage gibt es ja Eichhäkens-MGPS auf dem Navigation-System, dass der anzeigt, wo man ist. Aber ich meine, dann habt ihr zum letzten Mal eine Karte gekauft, an der Tankstelle, die ihr so aufhalten könnt. Es ist sehr, als ob wir das komplett verloren haben, das Gefühl, wie das funktioniert. Wir wissen ja nicht mal, wie wir heutzutage eine Karte zusammenfalten, weil damals, ja in den guten alten Zeiten, mussten wir noch eine Karte zusammenfalten und uns Untersuchungen auf der Karte zurechtfinden, wie das funktioniert. Und heutzutage nehmen einfach unser magisches Smartphone raus und dann klicken wir auf eine App und dann haben wir auf einmal die Karte komplett mit, einfach im Fall, wo wir sind. Es ist also eine Transformation passiert, von wie wir uns sehen in der physischen Welt. Wir sind ein Eiken auf der Karte. Also, das ist, das der Projekt startet. Und das geht über verschiedene Zyklen, was ich esse. Wir können vielleicht sogar sehen, was das für ein Ort ist. Das sind alle Mahlzeiten, die ich zu Hause esse. Ich fotografiere die alle. Das ist interessant. Heutzutage ist es voll normal. Auf Instagram macht jeder Fotos aus dem Essen. Warum ist das interessant? Die Frage stellt sich da. Aber ich habe das ans FBI gesandet. Ich habe das war Freitag, der 4. Dezember. Das hier ist Januar 11. in St. Rosé. Da habe ich getankt. Hier ist der Flughafen in Busan, in Südkorea. Das hier ist ein... Das ist das Barack Hussein Obama-Schule in Jakarta, in Indonesien. Das ist der 1. März. Tut mir leid, das geht so schnell. Also, jeden Moment, immer was ich mache, schicke ich, mache ich ein Foto. Ich nehme die abtale Zeit und schicke ans FBI. Und das ist so interessant, weil heutzutage ist dieses Projekt so ganz anders. Weil als ich angefangen habe mit dem Projekt, waren die Leute halt... haben die Leute gesagt, nee, komm nicht zu mir nach Hause. Ich will nicht, dass du zu mir nach Hause kommst. Aber heutzutage wird es social media, hat sich das alles geändert. Was hier so passiert ist, dass dieses Projekt kontinuierlich... Ich mich selber trekke. Ich sage immer, was ich tue, was ich mache. Und die Leute sagen immer heutzutage, wo ist was der Große? Was ist denn das? Warum ist das dann so wichtig? Das mache ich doch auch auf Instagram. Aber dieses Konzept, dass ich mich selber verfolge, das ist heutzutage so selbstverständlich geworden, dass wir unser eigenes Archiv von unserem Leben erstellen. Das ist... Ja, das ist wie dieses Bett hier. Ich weiß nicht, wieso ich in diesem Bett war, mit wem ich da war, oder ich sehe hier irgendwelche zufällige Bahnhöfe. Manchmal sieht man einfach Leute, die schauen einfach zufällig im Bild zu sein. Und es ist Wahnsinn, drüber nachzudenken, wie viele Kameras an einem Ort zu jedem Zeitpunkt sind. Schon allein in diesem Raum gibt es, mindestens doppelt so viele Kameras wie Menschen, weil es eine Kamera auf der Vorderseite und eine auf der Rückseite aus Televons gibt. Und wer weiß, wie viele Kameras es noch in den ganzen Geräten gibt. Wir können diesen Kameras also nicht wirklich entkommen, egal was wir tun. Und all diese Sachen, all diese Kleinteile, man ist meines Lebens... Ja, ein paar Minuten mache ich ein neues Foto meines Lebens. Es wird hochgeladen. Das ist so alltäglich heutzutage, aber vor 13, 14 Jahren fragt man mich, was ich tue und warum ich das tue. Und dann natürlich diesen ganzen Toiletten, weil ich mir dachte, dass das FBI alles über meine Geschäfte wissen will. Und deswegen dachte ich, ich zeig Ihnen, wann und wo ich zur Toilette gehe. Das müsste ich wissen. Was ich also tue ist... Es ist eine Art und Weise, euch gleichzeitig alles zu zeigen und nichts zu zeigen. Es ist eine Anschlacht des Rauschens. Irgendwann, ich meine, aber das ist natürlich nur ein temporärer Fix, weil irgendwann Maschinen-Learning soweit sein wird, dass es ein Signal aus diesem Rauschen herauswittern kann. Und die Hintergrundgeschichte ist, dass ich als Terrorist angezeigt wurde. Ich sollte das vielleicht ein bisschen erklären. Kurz nach den Anschlägen des 11. September ist das geschehen... Und jemand hatte die Polizei angerufen und gesagt, dass ein arabischer Mann geflüchtet sein sei und irgendwie Sprengstoff zu Hause hätte. Ich meine, ich bin kein Araber, ich bin Bengali, aber das ist auch alles egal. Ich habe also sechs Monate meines Lebens mit dem FBI verbracht und versuche Ihnen zu erklären, Sie zu überzeugen, dass ich kein Terrorist bin. Und zum Schluss meint sie ja alles in Ordnung. Und ich dachte mir, und dann habe ich gefragt, ob ich das schriftlich bekommen kann. Das ist... Habt ihr jemals versucht, ein schriftlich bestätigt zu bekommen, dass ihr nicht schuldig seid, etwas getan zu haben, was ihr nie getan habt? Und... Er hat mir ein paar Telefonnummern gegeben und hat gesagt, falls du Probleme hast, dann ruf uns an, und wir kümmern uns darum. Und so begann dieses ganze Projekt, als ich damit angefangen habe, kurz nach dem 11. September, war mein Telefon eines dieser alten Nokia 6600. Also wir haben sie damals Smartphones genannt, aber so smart waren sie wirklich nicht. Als ich angefangen habe, in dem ich alles an das FBI geschickt habe, habe ich angefangen, Ihnen alles zu zeigen, aber eben auch nichts, weil es einfach nur eine Wand aus Rauschen ist. Und das Verhältnis von Signal und Rauschen ist ziemlich verzerrt, weil es für den Betrachter relativ schwierig ist, herauszufinden, was er oder sie sieht. Also technologisch ist diese Website völlig überholt. Aber es ist auch eines dieser Dinge, die absichtlich nutzerunfreundlich sind. Die Informationen sind nicht irgendwie kategorisiert. Es kommt einfach nur rein in... Manchmal siehst du eine Taco, manchmal siehst du Mexico City, manchmal und weil ich dann von da nach Houston geflogen bin, bekommst du vielleicht ein paar Bilder von Houston und dann bekommst du und so weiter. Und diese... So entstehen diese Pfade. Währenddessen erzähle ich euch alles und nichts in diese. Es ist eine Art der Tarnung auch. Und Tarnung, insbesondere, was digitale Identität angeht, ist sehr wichtig. Denn im geschichtlichen Kontext spricht man über Tarnung, vor allem im militären Kontexten. Und der Grund dafür, dass Camouflage, also diese Tarnungsmuster so aussehen, wie sie das tun, ist, dass die Soldaten in der Umgebung verstecken sollten. Und natürlich gibt es viele verschiedene Kriege und in jedem Krieg wird ein anderes Camouflage-Muster verwendet. Und wenn man sich die neuen Muster anschaut, insbesondere in den USA, wo ich lebe, dann ist es völlig verpixelt. Und es sind diese komischen grün-gräulichen Farben. Ich weiß nicht, ob ihr euch sie mal angeschaut habt, aber es gibt keine Bäume in dieser Farbe. Und der Grund dafür ist, dass es nicht mehr aussehen soll, wie die Umgebung der Menschen, sondern nicht mehr in seiner Umgebung unsichtbar werden, sondern wir brauchen das nicht mehr. Der Soldat muss sich nicht mehr dem Schlachtfeld anpassen mit seiner Kleidung. Sondern was wir wollen, ist, dass der Feind mit Nachtsichtgläsern den Körper des Soldaten nicht mehr von der Umgebung unterscheiden kann. Deswegen hat es diese grün-gräuliche Farbe. Es geht also nicht mehr um die physische Gegenwart und die physische Anwesenheit des Soldats. Auf dem Schlachtfeld wird der physische Körper also versehentlich für ein digitales Artefakt gehalten werden. Und viel von meiner Arbeit und viel von dem, was ich tue, läuft darauf hinaus. Das hier habe ich einem, das ist der Grund, für den ich in der Umgebung des Soldaten hier habe ich einem der ersten Beispiele der US Army entnommen. Und so in der Nähe von Boston wird viel der amerikanischen Kamouflage designt. Das ist sozusagen ihre Modeabteilung, obwohl sie es so natürlich die nennen würden. Und das sieht auf den ersten Blick aus wie ein modernistisches Gitter. Aber was ich tatsächlich gemacht habe, ist, dass ich das Kamouflagemuster genommen habe und jedes Pixel durch ein Bild von einem historischen Ort des Konflikts genommen habe. Wenn ihr zum Beispiel diese beiden Bilder da unten in der Mitte anschaut, die sind aus Nordkorea, am nördlich das 30. Breitengras. Also tatsächlich seid ihr da in Nordkorea, aber es gibt sechs Gebäude, die direkt auf der Grenze gebaut sind. Das heißt, drei dieser Gebäude gehören Südkorea, drei gehören Nordkorea. Das heißt, es sind südkoreanische Gebäude, die aber tatsächlich auf Nordkorea in diesem Gebiet sind. Als eines der Bilder ist es von spanischem Schinken und als Muslim. Ich bin kein Fan von Schinken, aber jedes dieser Bilder wirkt ein bisschen generisch, aber es sind alles Bilder von Konfliktorten. Ganz oben links ist ein Foto eines Bürogebäudes und es hat eine Flagge mit drei Holzenternstreifen. Und ein kurzes Quiz für euch. Welches Land hat eine Flagge mit drei Streifen? Die oberen und unteren sind rot und der mittlere ist grün. Drei Streifen, obend unten rot, in der Mitte grün. Es war eine Fangfrage, das Land gibt es nicht. Es ist Transnistrien. Es ist ein kleiner Streifenland zwischen Moldavia und der Ukraine. Es ist vielleicht 20, 30 Kilometer breit und 200 Kilometer lang. Und dieser winzige Streifen, sie haben ihre eigene Armee, sie haben ihre eigenen Reisepässe, sie haben ihre eigene Währung, sie haben ihr eigenes Rechtssystem. Sie haben alles, was ein Land eben hat, nur werden sie von niemandem als Land anerkannt. Aber wenn du einen Haufen Maschinengewehr kaufen musst, dann geh dahin. Und dieses winzige Land, das niemand anerkennt, genau daher kommen viele Konflikte dieser Welt. Und ich bin da hingegangen und die Leute haben mich gefragt, ich habe gesagt, ich will nur mich ein bisschen umgucken, und naja, das hat ja alles geklappt. Aber ich will mal wieder zurückkommen von Krieg und über andere Themen reden. Also ich lebe in den Vereinigten Staaten und naja, wir sind ja aktuell in einem Krieg, den Krieg gegen den Terrorismus, den globalen Krieg gegen den Terrorismus in offizieller Amtssprache. Und das ist ein Bild von einem Projekt, das ich vor letztes Jahr gemacht habe. Und das hier ist ein Dokument des US-Kongress. Und dieses Dokument zeigt den Einsatz von US-amerikanischen Streitgruppen im Ausland. Und das wird jedes Jahr abgedätet. Und das sind nur die Fakten. Es fängt an, es fängt an, im 19. Jahrhundert, wie die Marine Piraten vertrieben hat von den karibischen Inseln. Jedes Mal, wenn ein US-amerikanisches Streitkraft ohne Erlaubnis in ein fremdes Land geht, dann hat man dieses Land inversiert. Und jeder Punkt auf dieser Karte ist eine solche Inversion. Und es geht los um, es hat viele Seiten und weitere Seiten, Seiten, Seiten. Und die Frage, und dann gucken wir uns mal, wann hat die US Florida inversiert? Und die Antwort ist, als Florida noch Teil von Spanien war, bevor Spanien Florida abgetreten hat. Und auf dieser Karte sieht man alle Inversionen der Vereinigten Staaten zwischen von der Unabhängigkeit im Jahr 1776 bis zum Ersten Weltkrieg. Und das waren die in Grau. In Schwarz sieht man die seit dem Ersten Weltkrieg bis zum Vietnamkrieg. Und wenn man mal alles aufzählt, von 1776 bis zum Ersten Weltkrieg waren es ungefähr genauso viele Inversionen wie vom Ersten Weltkrieg bis zum Vietnam. Und das ist der Fall, wenn man in den letzten 1760 bis zum Ersten Weltkrieg eine Inversion wie vom Ersten Weltkrieg bis zum Vietnam. Und das waren noch mal ungefähr genauso viele wie von Vietnam bis heute. Es ist interessant zu sehen, dass wir nur elfmal Krieg erklärt haben. Seit der Unabhängigkeit der USA hat die USA nur elfmal Formel der Krieg erklärt. Und dennoch muss man sehen oder sagen, dass in all den Jahren, wo die USA ein unabhängiges Land sind, gibt es viele Kriege, die die USA geführt hat. Und die meisten von denen sind zwar vor dem 19. Jahrhundert. Und im 20. Jahrhundert waren es nur fünf Jahre. Ich habe mal für ein Museum in Spanien gearbeitet. Ich habe mit dem Kurator dort geredet. Und da habe ich mir überlegt, was wäre, wenn wir eigentlich eine Wand von Panzer aufstellen. Und dann und dann und dann zeichnen wir die Weltkarte ein auf dieses schusssichere Glas. Und was wäre, wenn wir hinter diesem Glas einen Menschen entstellen, der auf das Publikum schießt. Aber es würde dann, aber es passiert ja nichts, weil das Glas ja schusssicher ist. Wir haben es damals ausprobiert in einem ballistischen Test und so sieht das dann aus. Und er schaut auch gut aus. Also wir haben hier die Vereinigten Staaten mit Kugeln gezeichnet. Und wenn eine Kugel ein kugelsicheres Glas eintritt, dann schmilzt das Glas durch die Wärme und dann wird die Kugel sich in das Glas einverleibt und es wird dann wieder kalt und dann bleibt die Kugel stecken. Und so sortet es dann aus. Das ist was ähnliches, was der männliche Körper macht, nur hält der männliche Körper die Kugel nicht. Aber dieses Kunstwerk ist sehr interessant zu sehen, diese Rohrgewalt und zu sehen, was passiert. Wir haben also ein paar ballistische Tests gemacht und dann natürlich ist das passiert, was ich mir erlärt habe. Das Museum hat gesagt, oh Gott, du bist doch verrückt. Das gibt keinen Grund, wo es ist, wir werden das niemals machen. Aber wir haben das dann woanders gemacht. Und dann hatten wir natürlich andere Probleme hinsichtlich, naja, was ist, wenn wir das in den Vereinigten Staaten bauen und wir schicken das dann nach Europa. Wie wird das dann eingezollt? Wird das verzollt als Kunst oder wird das verzollt als Schusswaffen und Explosivstoff, weil da ist das explosives Material drin verbaut? Und dann haben wir uns überlegt, okay, lass es einfach in Spanien bauen. Und als wir dann angefangen haben, das zu bauen, dann haben wir etwas realisiert, nämlich das ist ein kleines, spanisches Gesetz, wo es dann heißt, dass man mehr als 25 Meter weit wegstehen muss von dem Ziel, auf das man schießt. Natürlich war eigentlich unser Ziel, dass wir eine sehr große Ausstellung haben. Und das Problem ist aber, dass auf dieser Skalierungsgröße jeder dieser Kugeln nur 3 oder 4 Millimeter groß sind. Und ich weiß nicht, wie viele von euch schießen und wie zielgenau ihr seid, aber versucht mal, 330 Punkte zu treffen, die 3 bis 4 Millimeter groß sind, aus 25 Metern Entfernung ohne ein zu verschießen. Es ist so gut wie unmöglich. Also haben wir uns dann gefragt, wie machen wir das? Und dann hat das Museum zum Glück drei vorherige Olympiaschützen angeheuert. Und es war unglaublich, unglaublich, das anzusehen. Von den 330 Kugeln waren 326 Punktgenau auf das Ziel und die vier, die verschossen waren, da habe ich gedacht, dass ich sie falsch gezeichnet hatte. Es ist unglaublich. Man in der Mitte sieht man Mittelamerika. Wir haben Mittelamerika so oft eingenommen, dass man da so oft hingeschossen hat, dass das Glas selbst zerbricht. Und so nehmen wir dieses abstrakte Konzept dieser politischen Invasion und was die physische Übertragung in einer Karte macht und was es mit der physischen Geografie macht. Das finde ich sehr interessant. Wie diese Körperlichkeit und die Virtualität zusammenkommen. Dieses Projekt möchte ich auch zeigen. Daran habe ich auf Hawaii gearbeitet. Ich meine, wer sagt nein zu einem Job in Hawaii? Es ist ziemlich unglaublich, dass er eine Möglichkeit bekommen hat, dieses Projekt durchzuführen. Hawaii ist ein wirklich interessantes politischer und kultureller Perspektiv. Hawaii ist sehr einzigartig. Denn es ist die die Verkörperung dessen, was wir in den USA manifest destiny nennen, ein Begriff aus den späten 18. Jahrhunderts, als wir uns beschlossen haben, am Atlantik zu beginnen und sich dann auf den Weg nach Westen, dass das Land manifestiert und das ganze Land unseres wird. Das war also die Gründungsidee der Vereinten Staaten. Und Hawaii ist, hat eine sehr interessante Situation unter dieser Perspektive. Wir haben am Atlantik angefangen, haben erobert, erobert, erobert und so weiter, bis ganz zum Schluss. Dann sind wir in Pazifik angekommen und jetzt haben wir den Pazifik überquert und sind auf diesen Felsen mitten im Ozean. Das Interessante ist auch, dass wenn auf jeden der Berggipfel in Hawaii geht, dann ist jeder dieser Gipfel heilig. Und interessanterweise ist auf fast jedem dieser Berggipfel entweder das Militär oder die US-Regierung, also Wissenschaft im Auftrag der Regierung, alles. Es passiert auch einiges an spielichtigen Militärgeschichten. Zum Beispiel hat das Militär diese Teleskope oben auf den Berggipfel, die alles im Himmel überwachen. Lass mich euch ein paar dieser Bilder zeigen von diesen Gipfeln. Es ist wirklich wunderschön, da hinzugehen, das sieht aus wie Mars. Und viele der Tests für Marsflüge wurden tatsächlich auf Hawaii durchgeführt. Das ist unglaublich. Das sieht wirklich aus wie eine Marslandschaft. Und was mich sehr interessiert hat, ist die Beobachter zu beobachten und zu schauen, was passiert, wenn man Überwachung ästhetisiert. Das ist natürlich ein großer Problem für alle und viele der Talks hier auf dem Kongress handeln um Datenschutz. Wenn ihr das Wort Überwachungsbilder hört, was kommt euch dann in den Kopf? Wie sehen Überwachungsbilder für euch aus? Und die meisten denken wahrscheinlich an so kernige, verpixelte Überwachungskameralbilder. Manchmal sind die auch schwarz-weiß. Wir alle wissen, dass Datenspeicher billig ist, also du kannst eine Terabyte-Festplatte für 30 Dollar kaufen. Das wird immer billiger. Es ist kein ökonomisches Problem, sondern ein kulturelles. Ich würde sagen, wenn man ein Überwachungsbild sehr stark ästhetisiert, dann versteht dein Gehirn nicht mehr als Überwachung. Wenn es ästhetisch zu schön ist, dann lehnt dein Gehirn dieses Bild ab und das sieht es als Landschaftsphotografie. Natürlich, viel Landschaftsphotografie ist historisch basiert auf Landschaftsmallerei. Das heißt, emotional, was uns sagt, dass etwas ein Überwachungsbild ist, ist diese schlechte Qualität. Wenn es diese aber nicht mehr hat, dann wird es einfach ein Foto oder ein Video. In diesem Fall hat mich interessiert, was passiert, wenn man das sehr stark ästhetisiert. Stellt euch vor, ihr hättet einen Röntgenblick und könntet direkt durch diese Wand schauen. Was würdet ihr dann sehen? Das, was hier aussieht wie ein Fensterrahmen, das sind tatsächlich i6-Monitore und das ist sozusagen eine durchsichtige Wand. Es gab sich nun mal auf der anderen Seite der Wand dieses Ausstellungsraums, die Polizei von Baltimore ist. Das heißt, ich fand die Idee faszinierend, dass ich die Polizei dabei beobachten kann, wie sie mich dabei beobachtet, wie ich sie beobachte. Was ich auch nicht verstehe, ist, warum sie eine Überwachungskamera auf ihren Container, auf ihren Müllcontainer gerichtet haben. Das fasziniert mich einfach. Und am Ende wusste ich nicht mehr, ob ich ein Foto anschaue oder ein Video. Manchmal bewegen sich verschmierte Lichter oder Menschen vorbei. Hier seht ihr die Sachen im Fernsehen, die ganzen Leute, die Monitore anschauen. Aber das passiert nur in Filmen. Das benutzen sie für Fundraising. Es sind fast nur Maschinen, die sich diese Bilder anschauen. Das sieht überhaupt nicht so sexy aus. Und ich fand die Idee faszinierend, dieses Bild zu nehmen und zu sehen, was passiert, wenn man es ästhetisiert. Was passiert, wenn man die Form ästhetisiert? Das ist ein sehr ähnliches Projekt an einem anderen Ort, und das ist das, was du durch die Wand sehen würdest. Und wenn du dir das anschaust, dann lehnt dein Bild völlig ab, dass das ein Überwachungsbild sein könnte. Aber das ist genau das, was auf der anderen Seite passiert. Überlegt also nachher über Ästhetik und wie die Bewachung aussieht. Vieles der Geschichte von amerikanischer Fotografie basiert auf amerikanischer Landschaftsmanerei. Und viel davon kommt aus der Schule des Hudson River. Der ist nördlich von New York City. Diese wunderschönen, großen Blickwinkel mit sehr faszinierend spirituellen, göttlichen Bildern. Und das ist sehr interessant. Denn als würde man versuchen, dieses Auge Gottes zu replizieren. Oder wenn man von einer Überwachungspasspektive darüber nachdenkt, und wir denken über Überwachung als ein Ding, das nach dem 11. September passiert ist, es gab's Wort vor 20 Jahren noch nicht so, dieses Wort Überwachung, das hat noch nicht so sehr doberer nachgedacht. Weil wir, Überwachung ist für uns ein Konzept des 21. Jahrhunderts, aber es ist nicht so wichtig, dass wir das überwachen. Das ist für uns ein Konzept des 21. Jahrhunderts, aber es befindet sich in unserem Gedächtnis schon seit tausenden von Jahren. Insbesondere, wenn man über Gott als die Originelle, als ursprüngliche Überwachungskamera nachdenkt, denn du hast dich benommen, weil Gott dir zugeschaut hat. So kann man diese göttlichen Blickwinkel als Überwachung auffassen. Aber woher weiß der Weihnachtsmann über dich Bescheid? Und das wird uns so früh im Leben beigebracht, diese Normalisierung der Überwachung. Wir benutzen nie das Wort Überwachung, wenn wir über Gott reden. Diese Ästhetisierung, die Hyper-Ästhetisierung, naja, das trifft nicht ganz so. Aber das ist die Idee, darüber nachzudenken. Wenn wir darüber nachdenken, dann haben wir diese Beziehung zwischen Beobachtern und Beobachteten. Und wenn man das Format der Überwachung ästhetisiert, nicht nur die Bilder, sondern auch das Format und wie es präsentiert ist, wir würden darüber nicht mal als Überwachungsbild nachdenken, aber auch das ist natürlich eines. Und ich wollte euch den Kontext dieses Bildes zeigen, weil ich ein bisschen mehr über das Kunstwerk auf der rechten Seite reden möchte. Das sieht ein bisschen aus wie Landmien, aber es sieht auch irgendwie aus wie Satelliten. Und ich bin fasziniert von diesem Konzept der Weltumfahrung. Und wie von vorher geht es hier darum, euch alles und nichts auf einmal zu zeigen. Und ich bin fasziniert von Magellan, der die Welt umfuhr. Und das Konzept, dass man einmal, dass man am Ende wieder rauskommt. Zum Beispiel, es gibt Menschen, die so weit links stehen, dass sie tatsächlich schon wieder rechts sind. Und so könnte das hier also ein Landmiene sein oder auch ein Satellit. Und das ist, ich meine, das ist ein relativ altes Projekt, aber es sehen auch aus wie Selfie-Sticks. Also das ist, wenn es dann, die Installation ist vor dem iPad entstanden. Und jetzt ist das so häufig. Und all die Bilder, die ich an meinen FBI-Agenten schicke, werden auf all diesen Bildern, wird schon gleichzeitig angezeigt. Und das ist, ein weiteres Projekt, das nur ein Teil von dem Projekt war. Das sind ungefähr 28 Fuß, also 8,5 Meter hoch. Und es ist, ja, so ziemlich jedes Foto, das ich fotografiert habe und geteilt habe, und die sind ausgedruckt, auch so ganz großen Bannern. Jedes Foto ist ungefähr so klein, aber es ist so klein, dass man so viele Fotos, jedes Foto ist ungefähr so klein, aber es gibt Tausende und Tausende und Tausende und Tausende Fotos. Wenn man das also von weit weg sieht, dann sieht man nur noch diese Farbstreifen. Es ist interessant, dass, es ist interessant zu sehen, dass die Bilder halt auch nach wochentage getrenzt werden, Montag, Dienstag, Mittwoch und so weiter. Es ist interessant, dass das ein Testbild ist. Es hat auch eine Verbindung zu den Farb-Testbildern. Das müsstet ihr eigentlich in Deutschland auch gehabt haben. In den Vereinigten Staaten gibt es das Emergency Broadcard System. Das ist ein Notfallsystem, dass wenn ein nationaler Notstand oder ein Notfall passiert, dann geht der Fernseher an ein Testbild mit Farben und dann wird dir angesagt, was du tun solltest, was du machen musst. Etwas schlechtes passiert jetzt, du musst dich vorbereiten. Das ist also sehr interessant zu sehen, was passiert, wenn du diesen Ton benutzt oder wenn du diese Farbe benutzt oder wenn du das dir ausseist. Aber das ist ja auch genau das gleiche System. Die Fernseher Übertragungsfirmen benutzen um Übertragungen zu testen. Wie wird so etwas kalibriert? Deswegen verweist dieses Kunstwerk auch auf das Emergency Broadcard System in den USA. Das hier ist ein ZKM vor ein paar Jahren. Das läuft jetzt aus der Europa, und das hier sind auch die Fotos, die von hinten beleuchtet sind. Man sieht also einzelne kleine Stücke, diese sind ungefähr 3 Meter hoch, jedes dieser einzelnen Stücke, und die sind von hinten beleuchtet. Ebenfalls ein weiteres Kunstwerk. Wir haben ja diese Bibliotheken, wir haben ja persönliche Bibliotheken und Archive, manche von euch haben ja Fotoalben, et cetera. Wir alle haben ein eigenes Archiv. Ich meine, ich habe auch mein eigenes Archiv, parallel zu dem, was ich ans FBI schicke. Ich denke ja, dass sowieso jeder in diesem Raum hier durch die Regierung überwacht wird. Und vielleicht sind manche von euch ja Teil der Organisation, die uns überwachen, sicherlich auf der Konferenz, und ihr seht hier diese pixelierten, körnigen Bilder, und das geht bis hoch an, das geht hoch bis, und in den weißen Streifen sieht man den Grundgrund von einem Gebäude. Man sieht da zum Beispiel, man sieht da diesen weißen Ballkreis auf der unteren Rechenseite, und das ist der Grundruss für ein Satellitenbild von dem Gebäude der NSA. Und da ist halt die Frage, was ist das? Also, als ich das, dieses Kunstwerk ausgestellt habe, es ist ein bisschen wie ein Selfie, es ist aber ein Selfie, aber auch ein bisschen nicht. Also ich habe diese Sachen fotografiert, lass uns noch mal zurückgehen, zu dem hier. Wenn ich das hier fotografiere, dann hätte ich die Kamera nehmen können, und ich hätte die, die euch fotografieren können, aber da dessen habe ich was anderes fotografiert, diese anonymierte Sache. Ihr wisst ja, was das ist. Die Kamera zeigt nicht auf mich, aber die Kamera zeigt außerhalb. Es gibt Tausende, Tausende von diesen Fotos. Das sind alltäglich gewonnen. Man muss hier nicht schämen dafür, dass ihr Selfies mag. Ich meine, hier ist President Obama, der versucht, ein Selfie zu machen mit einem Selfie-Stick. Selfies sind schon ziemlich... Also ich mag den neuen Präsidenten nicht so. Ich kann den nicht ausstehen, deswegen benutze ich über den Alpen. Aber wenn man dieses Bild benutzt, was passiert dann? Wenn man sich hier ein Bild ansehen, das ist das Bild, was jetzt auf der Website ist, und sobald ich diesen Raum verlassen werde, wird es ein neues Bild geben, und wenn ich ins Hotel komme, wird es noch ein Bild geben. Wo ich heute Abend hingebe, wird es wieder ein Bild geben. Aber wie gesagt, jeden Moment, über den Tag hinweg ziehe ich Fotos und ich Timestempel diese, und das ist das, was der Computer sehen wird. Manche von euch wissen das vielleicht, aber wenn man sich die XF-Daten anseht von einem Bild, dann kann man sehen, wo das Bild geschossen wurde. Also das sind hier die Ortsdaten. Und jetzt aber geht es dahin, was Interessantes. Wenn man sich zum Beispiel guckt, auf welcher Höhe dieses Bild geschossen wurde, die Höhe ist 186, 186 Meter, 186 Meter, klingt das richtig für Leipzig, ich weiß es nicht, ich denke es ist richtig, und dann ist es das, was mir das Handy sagt. Aber was Interessantes ist, wenn man guckt, in welche Richtung das Bild guckt. Ich meine, wir wissen, wo wir sind, mit Hilfe der GPS-Daten. Aber was auch interessant ist, ist, dass ein Foto, was auf dem Erdgeschoss geschossen wurde, anders aussehen wird, als eins vom 30. Stock. Wenn ich also ein Bild vom, also ein Bild vom Dach genommen hätte und nach unten geschossen hätte, würde da jetzt stehen 188 Meter, man kann also sehen, von welcher Höhe ich das Bild ausgeschossen habe. Man kann auch sehen, in welche Richtung ich das Foto geschossen habe. Die Kamera war jetzt so auf 186 Grad Nord gedreht und es war leicht versetzt und es hat ungefähr nach Süden gezeigt und das ist auch da in die Richtung, in die Kamera gezackt wird. Wieso ist das wichtig? Es war erst nur ein paar Jahre hinter Jahren, wo wir dachten, erst vor ein paar Jahren haben wir uns gewundert und gefragt, fährt Google durch jede einzelne Straße und nimmt alles auf? Und die Antwort ist, ja. Ich meine, es ist in jedem Land ein bisschen anders wegen den gesetzlichen Bedingungen, aber nicht nur das. Google fährt nicht nur durch jede einzelne Straße in jedem einzelnen Land, in dem sie können. Sie machen das auch immer wieder, immer, immer, immer, immer wieder. Durch Venedig fahren sie auf den Bodendurch und auf manchen Gebieten, wo man nicht mehr im Auto fahren kann, wandern die mit Kameras. Also, Google versucht jeden Einzelnen die Idee, dass Google die gesamte Außenwelt kategorisiert und aufnimmt. Es war so weit weg. Es wird nun nicht mehr all zu viele Jahre dauern, bis wir auch alles innerhalb eines Raumes kategorisieren und fotografieren werden. Und in ein paar Jahren kann es gut passieren, dass wir mit den Mitte-Daten von den Fotos, und wenn wir ganz viele Fotos haben, dass alles verbinden könnte, eine Collage und sozusagen hier den Raum wieder aufbereiten können. Und Apps zeichnen jedes Mal auf, woher weiß dein Telefon überhaupt, dass du heute 8.944 Schritte gelaufen bist. Es ist selten, jeden Einzelnen davon ist. Du bist heute fünf Treppen hochgelaufen, weil es gemerkt hat, dass sich die Höhe deines Telefons verändert hat. Und wenn man diese ganzen Daten mit deiner Menge verbindet und ich meine, diese Daten werden gesammelt, es wird passieren, es wird archiviert werden. Wir werden unser Dieben nicht mehr ohne ein Smartphone zu bestreiten. Und wenn du diese ganzen Daten miteinander verbindest, dann hast du sehr schnell ein Bild vom Besitzer dieses Gerätes. Früher in den guten alten Zeiten hatten, haben Geheimdienste, die Leute so manuell verfolgt. Es ist nicht so weit weg, von dem, was hier passiert, was Daten banken, es wird werden... Also es ist nicht so abwegig, diese Sammlung von dieser analoge, riesige analoge Datensammlung. Aber warum sollten wir das heute machen, wenn Sie einfach auf eine der Firmen zukommen können und sagen, hey, gibt's noch so etwas, das ist nicht so weit weg von dem, was hier passiert. Und wenn Sie einfach auf eine der Firmen zukommen können und sagen, hey, gibt's noch so einfach die Daten. Natürlich sagt Tim Cook, nein, wir geben unsere Daten nicht an die NSA weiter. Wir wissen, dass das nicht ganz stimmt. Erinnert dich an die hier von Snowden? Es steht nicht dran, wann die NSA jeden diesen, was die NSA-Dienstdaten-Lieferanten nimmt, angeschrieben hat. Und Tim Cook kann sagen, was er möchte, darüber, dass sie damit nichts zu tun haben, wir wissen es besser, hier ist der Bewerber fei. Wenn diese riesigen multinationalen Firmen, also diese Informationen herausgeben können, warum können wir das nicht selber machen und warum geben wir nicht einfach alles raus, egal ob es jetzt relevant ist oder nicht. Warum verschlammen wir nicht einfach das ganze System? Mich interessiert diese Idee, unsere eigene Archive zu schaffen. Dieses Bild ist ein Datenzentrum in San Francisco. Das ist auch ein Projekt namens Hawkeye, was der interne Name von AT&T für dieses Datenzentrum ist und kurz vor 2007, also vor zehn Jahren, ist in Raum 641 A ein whistleblower rausgekommen. Die NSA hatte 16 Telekom-Firmen in Nussau angeschrieben und gesagt, hey, wir wollen Daten von euch und nur eine Firma hatte gefordert, erst einmal einen Durchsuchungsbefehl zu sehen und sie meinten, wir geben euch die Daten, wenn ihr uns sagt, wofür ihr sie braucht. Aber 15 der 16 Firmen haben einfach nur gesagt, ja klar, hier. Wer weiß, wie es heute ist, aber 2007 wurde geschätzt, dass 213 Terabytes an Telefon-Locks in diesem Gebäude archiviert wurden, also alle Anrufe in den USA, und natürlich gibt es mehrere Datenzentren in dieser Art. Wenn du deine Großmutter anrufst, gehört die Information über diesen Anruf dir, gehört sie deine Großmutter oder gehört sie der Telekom, die dir eine einmalige Lizenz zur Nutzung geben. Wem gehören diese Daten? Ich weiß, dass AT&T mein Mobilfunk-Anbieter in den USA diese Daten aufzeichnet, aber ich habe auch meine eigenen Daten. Es sind Lockfires von meiner Website, alle Leuten, die meine Website besuchen und wenn man das ein bisschen aufräumt, dann sieht man, wer so alles vorbeikommt, das Terrorist Screening Center, der CIA, die National Geospatial Intelligence Agency. Ich weiß nicht genau, warum die vorbeikommen. Ich meine, ich finde es toll, dass sie Kunst mögen. Ich finde es toll, dass in diesen Organisationen Menschen künstlerisch verandacht sind. Ich finde es toll, dass sie mögen, was ich mache, aber einer besonderen Person, muss ich danken dafür, dass sie meine Künstlerkarriere ermöglicht hat und das ist Dick Cheney. Ohne Dick Cheney würde ich nicht hier stehen und zu euch sprechen. Es ist wirklich für viele Dinge, die in der Vergangenheit passiert sind, in jüngerer Vergangenheit passiert sind, verantwortlich. Also danke, Dick Cheney, wenn du zuhörst und das tust du wahrscheinlich, denn ich weiß, was das dann wollte. 2010 habe ich eine Stelle an der University of Maryland angenommen und wenn ich Maryland sage, dann glauben viele Leute, ich meine, Baltimore, dass die Hauptplattform von Maryland ist, aber es ist eigentlich näher von Washington. Und da ist meine Uni, hier ist die CIA, FBI und NSA und wenn man den Mittelpunkt dieser drei Punkte nimmt, dann ist das auf unserem Campus. Ich weiß, wir haben Budget-Spielkeiten in NSA, deswegen helfe ich den, in den ich in ihre Nachbarschaft gezogen sind, damit sie ihre Ressourcen nicht so verschwenden müssen. Unsere Universität, sie ist im Sport vielleicht nicht so toll, aber dafür ist sie die militarisierteste Universität in den Vereinigten Staaten. Nun ist, es ist eine Firmenstadt, das heißt Mieten sind sehr hoch und eine Wohnung zu kaufen ist sehr teuer, also in Washington wird es immer und immer teurer. Aber dann habe ich dieses Grundstück gefunden. Und hier steht der Durchschnittspreis in diesem, der Durchschnittspreis in diesem Postalzeigengebiet sind 800.000 Dollar und dann habe ich dieses Stück Land zu diesem Preis bekommen und ich dachte mir, ich will das haben und das sind eineinhalb Stunden von der Arbeit entfernt, das ist ein bisschen weit weg, aber es ist möglich, durch das Mapper und es ist ein wunderschöner Ort und man sieht hier diesen Zufahrt zu diesem Haus am Wasser, die gehört ihm hier und wir gehen mal auf Nachbarschaftserkundung. Das ist sein Tor, das ist seine Einfahrt, er fährt hier lang, er hat eine Garage für Autos für fünf Autos, das ist der Swimming Pool, da können wir im Sommer zusammen rumhängen, das ist sein Wohnzimmer, hier ist seine Küche, hier schläft er und hier werden wir die Weltherrschaft planen. Ich würde gerne das hier bauen, das war das, was ich bauen wollte, aber diese Anzeige ist einfach verschwunden und das macht er manchmal auch mit Menschen, ich bin froh, dass er das nur mit der Anzeige gemacht hat und nicht mit mir, es ist einfach verschwunden. Das heißt, heute wird das dieses konzeptuelle Projekt, wo ich einfach Sachen zeichne. Hier ist ein Mann Dick Cheney, er ist nicht nur der alte Vizepräsident, sondern auch der Chef von Herne Burton, dieser Mann hat jede Motivation geheimnisgremerisch zu sein und Gates spielt keine Rolle, aber wenn ich euch zeigen kann, wo er schläft und wo er ist und wo er schwimmt, was kann er denn über uns wissen? Ich bin nicht mal so technologisch, ich klebe einfach nur Sachen so zusammen, dass sie so funktionieren, wie ich sie brauche. Aber was können Firmen und Staaten, die die Motivation und Informationen zu durchführen haben? Was können sie denn über uns wissen? Wir brauchen wirklich eine neue Interpretation dessen, was Privatsphäre und Datenschutz im 21. Jahrhundert bedeuten. Wir können uns nicht mehr erlauben, dieselben Definitionen von Privatsphäre und Datenschutz zu verwenden, die wir vor 50 oder 100 oder 200 Jahren verwendet haben oder auch vor fünf Jahren oder sogar letzte Woche. Und für jeden von uns wird es etwas Neues anderes bedeuten. Damit möchte ich schließen. Vielen Dank und ich nehme gerne Fragen entgegen. Thank you, Hassan. It's a fantastic adventure to be always on the run. Es ist ein fantastisches Abenteuer, immer unterwegs zu sein. Gleichzeitig, ich renne sie aber auch vor dir weg. Sie kommen vorbei. Ich möchte mich mit ihnen antreuen. Sie wollen nicht Freunde sein. Sie wollen einfach nur aus der Entfernung zuschauen. Ich glaube so Dick Fanny wird Partys in deiner Wohnung in deinem Haus zu lassen. Ja, wir haben eine Schließübungsbahn am Ende. Danke für den Talk. Du hast angewähnt, dass du gesehen hast, dass du die Überwachung, wie heutzutage, als alltäglich sehen. Es gibt etwas, was du vorschlägst, dass wir jungen Leuten erziehen können, hinsichtlich von Selfie und Instagram. Ja, ich finde, es ist interessant zuzusehen, wie Menschen verschiedene Generationen hierauf reagieren. Vieles hängt damit zusammen, wie wir kommunizieren. Es gibt ja Generationen, die Briefe geschrieben haben. Dann gab es Generationen, die Telefonanrufe gemacht haben. Dann gab es Generationen, die E-Mails geschrieben haben. Jetzt gibt es Generationen, die nur Textnachrichten schreiben. Heutzutage haben wir natürlich verschiedene Menschen, also haben wir diese ganzen Generationen gemeinsam, die jeweils nur eine Technologie benutzen. Die Zeit ist jetzt ein bisschen komprimiert, weil wir hunderte von Jahren Leute haben, die nur Briefe geschrieben haben und dann die Generation des Telefons, die werte vielleicht 50 Jahre und dann vielleicht fünf Jahre E-Mail und jetzt einen Jahr Textnachrichten. Aber ich glaube, vieles hängt auch mit der Übernahme dieses Adaptationen und Integration zusammen. Ich meine, das ist natürlich politisch ein riesiges Thema, aber wir müssen auch aus einer digitalen Perspektive darauf schauen. Wir benutzen das Wort Digital Native gerne, aber das Wort Digital Immigrant gibt es gar nicht. Aber das ist natürlich jeder von uns auf eine gewisse Weise. Nein, natürlich gibt es eine gewisse Generation, die seit Tag ein Digital lebt, aber natürlich für alle, ab einem gewissen Alter sind alle digitale Immigranten. Und ich glaube, dieser Gedankensprung, der bewirkt etwas, insbesondere auch mit Erziehung und Bildung. Also wann ist es eine Fähigkeit, die man von Anfang an gelernt hat und nicht erst was man sich beigebracht hat? Ich frage mich, ob das FBI dich jemals gefragt hat, aufzuhören. Nein, nein, es gibt kein Gesetz, das ihr verbietet, zu viel zu sagen. Aber es ist natürlich eine Einbahnstraße. Sie machen keine redaktionelle Arbeit, sie sagen ja nicht die Meinung, sondern sie stellen ihr Fragen und sie nehmen Informationen entgegen. Du kannst sie mit einem Wort beantworten oder sie kannst sie mit Millionen Worten beantworten. Und ich habe mich entschlossen, einfach weiter mit ihnen zu reden. Ich bin halt eine relativ gute Person, ich bin gerne hilfsbereit. Aber es ist natürlich, es ist eine Ebene der aggressiven Hilfsbereitschaft. Das heißt, ich bin irgendwann so hilfsbereit, dass ich gar nicht mehr hilfige. Ist es eine Frage von der Internet? Nein, es ist eine Frage von der Internet. Es ist eine Frage von der Internet. Es ist eine Frage von der Internet. Es ist eine Frage von der Internet. Es ist eine Frage von der Internet. Es gibt es einen FBI-Agenten hier im Saal. Ihr könntet vielleicht euch auf ein Getränk treffen. Ich bin mir sicher, dass hier Leute von irgendwelchen Regierungsorganisationen sind. Lasst uns auf ein Getränk treffen. Vielen Dank.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5R_eMiECcTU", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Welcome. Welcome, gentlemen. Thank you. How are you? All right. So, yeah. Hi, everyone. Apologies for these initial issues. Yeah. My name is Gary Coach Garcia. I will give you a brief introduction of the IG Group and IGGBS, which is the company Raul and myself belong to. IGGBS is part of the IG Group. I will tell you a bit more about it in the next slide. All right. So, IG has a vision of becoming the leading group of airlines across the world. To do so is preparing a platform for different operating companies to work on it. So the idea is to maximizing the sustainable value to our stakeholders and customers. It started in 2011. There were joining leading airlines from Ireland, from the UK, from Spain, and it commemorates different type of airlines across the same group. So there are two full service carriers, which are Iberia and British Airways. There are also two value service carriers, like Erlingus and Iberia Express, and finally there are also low cost carriers, such as Boeing and Lebel. Lebel actually was created by IG in 2017, while the other companies were either creating the group or being a quality run, and the difference with Lebel is that it's a low cost company that offers transatlantic flights to many destinations, starting from Barcelona and Paris. Then as you have probably seen in the press, we are now in the process to publicly buy another airline, which is Europa, and that will give us also more presence in the Madrid hub. So what we are building in IG is a platform for these different operating companies to coexist and find the synergies between them. So the platform is formed by other operating companies supporting those businesses, which include IG Cargo for good transportation, then IG GPS, which is the one that provides group IT services, procurement, and financial services, and finally we have Avios, which is the loyalty aspect of the group. In terms of the vision, like becoming the world leading airline and creating this sustainable value, we believe that we are well positioned to offer this value because even if we are working on a very competitive and fast-paced environment, we do have the right basis for creating that. We believe that one doesn't fit all, so that's why we are quite diverse in terms of the different businesses that are part of the group. But we also believe that because they are different, we can also offer a rival customer proposition across the different segments of the travel industry. So here you can see the IG integrated platform, which is composed of Cargo, Avios, GPS, and so on that provide these services to the different companies. The idea is to allow this integrated platform to provide simplicity and to become more efficient and then let the different operating companies to be different, to have their own targets and in the end to provide different type of value to different type of customers. Now going a bit more into group IT. Group IT is part of IG GPS, so together with the financial services and group procurement, we form this global business services group. We do have a number of challenges in group IT that we need to address because of the nature of the group. For instance, there is a very heterogeneous legacy landscape that we need to address. Together with that, there are security issues, there are network challenges due to connectivity of different locations associated to the logistics. Obviously, there are different business alignments. The different businesses do have different visions and therefore different cultures that we will need to address from a common perspective in IT. The idea of IT is to offer a plug and play capability and this serves as a potential platform, let's say, even for future acquisitions so that we can integrate and find the right synergies underneath. So what we are doing in IT with this plug and play model is to really understand our access, our to be where we want to be, how can we standardize and to which level we can get those synergies and then define the associated roadmap and the strategy of course on how to go from it to be. Then in terms of what are the enablers to be able to do this, one of the enablers is the agitransformation that we are presenting. One of the samples is the Iberia com examples that will go a bit more in depth. Another very good example of enablers is actually the open group as a platform and the commercial aviation workgroup where we are aiming to develop much farther the commercial aviation reference framework which will serve as a base for our IT and architecture functions. Then in terms of agile working, well, you know, pretty much the idea of becoming agile so the organizations need to be more responsive, more effective, they need to be more efficient as well. There are a number of challenges that typically the different organizations face. They include specifically the culture and mindset change and that is something that we also struggled especially at the beginning and we have been evolving on that. So the use case will probably go a bit more deeper into that point. In the end what we found out is that we need to embrace the agenda and keep still some part of the more traditional way of doing IT and architecture but we will have to evolve in some areas and we have already started doing so. In order to do this, the role of the architecture that we know traditionally needs to evolve. There are some aspects where this is more necessary than others. Primarily we as architects need to be closer to the business owners. We have to be co-creating and be co-located with them, do a lot of whiteboarding with them, understand the issues and evolve with the business requirements. Then there is a necessity also for simplifying the documentation that we have and one very good thing to do so is to choose the right tools in order to not having to put extra effort on the more bureaucratic side of things. So just produce what is absolutely relevant for the business and actually within IT. The concepts that we are now a bit more familiar with and the aspects of architecture that need to change more, let's say, is rather than to boil the ocean and create a completely perfect architecture from the beginning, we should start more from a minimum viable architecture. This means that starting from the strategy and from a very high level vision of what we need to achieve, then we have to smartly partition the architecture to find the right level of depth and breadth of the different initiatives and then focus on the minimum viable architecture for each of those initiatives rather than trying to create the whole thing from the beginning. Then the concept of continuous architecture refactoring is also, as we were hearing before, making the architecture more agile. So we don't need to adhere to very strict and difficult to change these architectures or solutions, but starting from principles, starting from strategy, we can evolve that architecture as the requirements evolve or the technology underpinning those solutions or requirements are evolving as well. In terms of digital transformation, we want the teams to be working with new technologies. We are exploring the new technologies. We are applying them and see how they work. Proof concepts and small projects initially starting small and then growing on them. Things like technologies that a couple of years ago were radically new, now they are getting more, let's say, adopted by all the teams, but there are still a lot of opportunities that can be explored in areas like artificial intelligence, block change, you name it, all these new technologies that we work with. Finally, but not less important, is the architectural governance. In the traditional, let's say, the architectural governance is a bit too rigid and it needs to be a bit more fluid when we speak about agile. So to me, the key figure is the solution architect in this case that can flex the day-to-day work that is being done in the squads within the teams that are working in the agile delivery and the, let's say, enterprise architecture level where we have the strategy, the principles, the technology guidelines. So the solution architect can work with each of the squads, understand what are the needs for solutions and architectures to evolve and communicate that back to the enterprise architecture. We will see how these principles are becoming a reality with now the use case that Raúl is going to present for ABRIA.com. Thank you. Hello everybody. I am Raúl Fernández, the performance manager of ABRIA.com, and I'm going to, the case study that I'm going to introduce or present today is about the roadmap of the agile adoption of ABRIA.com. When I entered in the company three years ago, the process, the methodology they were using was very traditional, and one of the missions they gave me is to start doing the transformation with all the teams that are building the ABRIA.com platform. What is ABRIA.com? There are two different angles to see what is ABRIA.com. One is a platform, it's a technological platform, a collection of microservices, a front application, the front of the mobile apps, but also other legacy applications that are the core of the company like a ticketing system or the account, revenue accounting that this platform is using as well, and they are belonging to other teams, other areas of ABRIA.com, and sometimes we have to implement things and we have dependencies about features that they have to implement in their system, and this platform also is using third party services like ADEUS or other services. So this is ABRIA.com is a technological platform, but also ABRIA.com is a product. From the business point of view, it's a product, and as a product there are different businesses in ABRIA that want to spend money to do chains in the application because those chains are going to bring with revenue. So we have several businesses and one technological platform. Three years ago, the situation was very different to nowadays, and we have different businesses trying to touch the same platform. The businesses were not aligned each other, so whenever you start implementing things, you start seeing conflict in the implementation. So there were a misalignment between businesses. At that time also, we see we have another big problem with business is the priorities. These were three types of priorities, high-media level, high-media low. What happened? 80% of the projects were high-priority and 20-medium. If USIT has a lot of projects with a high-priority, the one that is deciding which project is going to be the first to implement ISIT, and that's the bad direction because we are losing the time to market to start working with a project that has the most impact in business. So at some point, we have to move that responsibility to business and say, we cannot work with only three levels of priority. The backlog has to be from 1 to N, and we can pick up the projects from the top of the backlog. Another problem that we had at that time is the visibility. So all the engineers in Iberia.com were working in tasks to implement features, but they didn't know the business strategy. If they didn't know the business strategy, you cannot pretend that the team is proactive and the team can take decisions in the right direction because they don't know the business strategy and we are working, we are not a technological company, we are selling tickets and our target is the user. And another problem that the business didn't know or didn't understand how IT was working because we were like at two different things, business asking things and IT implementing them, but we were not working as a team. Another problem was the dependencies. You have dependencies with another systems that are working, are still working in traditional technologies, traditional methodologies, and the speed of implementation is not as fast as an agile team. So if you have dependencies, you have to wait. And what's happening at that time is that because business was putting a lot of pressure in some of the projects because they were very urgent, if that project has a dependency in a third party, you cannot start implementing on that project until the third party finish the dependency because if you do that, then you have implementation that these are already done, but it's not ready to put in production. If it is not ready to put in production, why you don't work in other things that you can put in production and get the time to market. Another problem is the knowledge. There were like a few people with a lot of knowledge. Iberia is a very old company. Few people with a lot of knowledge and many people depending on them. So we have to distribute that knowledge in all the people. Otherwise, the dependency to do something is very big and also the quality. At that time, we had a very monolithic application. You change something here and then you break something in other part. Of course, we have done a transformation project and now we convert all that monolithic application in a microservice platform. So what we did at the beginning, agile goes about working with team, working with people. So at the beginning, we didn't say to anybody that we went to transform to agile. We just started to work with the people, with the team. And I remember the environment was a very difficult one because there were like a different providers working, delivering projects and when they put the project in the production, they generate a lot of bugs. And all the providers were blaming each other. So one of the things is you have to create a good environment. And a good environment that is focused in solutions. And everybody is working in a solution, not complaining, not blaming each other. So we started to do like a round of retrospective meetings in which we talk about the impediments that the people had doing their job. What are the impediments that you have? What we can do? And then we came with a series of actions. In those meetings, nobody can complain. Nobody can blame each other. Everybody, the laptops, please close the laptop. And if you have a mobile call go outside, we are going to work together in a solution. And it's amazing. In two months doing that every week, the attitudes of the people change because you put all the people to work in a solution together. And then you gave them like a possible solution to the problems. And then you try to influence them to give them the good values to create like a base in which you can work in agile. Especially be focused on the customer and the organization. You have to delegate in teams. You are going to, at that time, we were about to remove the project manager role. So team has to be able to out organize. And team has to be able to assume the responsibility as a team. And that is difficult, I will tell you. So we have a good success environment after two months in the people. And then we started to work together, to keep working together every week to define what will be the model that we would like to work. We are going to try to do the model scalable for all of us that we would like to work. And we did that with the development team, with the engineers, but also with the business people. Because the challenge was stop having two different teams, business and IT. The challenge was you are the product, we are IT. Herarchically you are in the same position, but you are doing different roles. But for doing different roles and with the common target that is the user, we have to be able to work together. How is the best model to work together? Then I put everybody in long sessions on Fridays, I remember, and to define that model. It was a difficult process. But then people start contributing with ideas. And they are the people that are going to implement the things. And they are the people that knows much better what is the best model for Iberia. Much better than if an external consultant comes to Iberia and says, this is the model, try to follow. No, we are going to create it. Because if they created the model, if they created the model, because they did it, they are going to follow. They are not going to leave that like an imposition. They are going to leave that like a democratic act that everybody agrees. And they have to do what the team is agreeing. Okay, so we created the model. We spent several months trying to define the model. Can you hear me? Thank you, the family model. And in January this year, when that the model was defined and agreed in all the teams, then I dissolved all the teams in Iberia.com, 130 people. I dissolved all the teams. And in the act of one day, in an auto-organized meeting, everybody choose when he wants to work. They already know the model. So with the model, you have a collection of rules. You can have, for example, for this model, we are going to have the development teams that has to be full stack. So every development team has to have all the profiles that you need to deliver such an improduction. Service backend developers, front-end developers, quality assurance, another different technology like experts in the content management system. So you have a team that can implement something and put in production. They already know that there were cells, I will explain later on, that every cell is formed by one product owner, one business analyst, one UX, one UI. So we draw the template and everybody select when they wanted to work. And after that, we started around to find the team agreements to start the new way of working. And we implemented this. We have been working this year with that model. And now we are in a position in that we found several things that we need to improve because, okay, this slide is not complete. Okay. Because we realize that the culture is very difficult to change. It's the most difficult thing when you are playing a transformation on a file. You can set the ceremonies, you can set the framework. But the culture, the mindset is still old. So now we have to do a second round of transformation. So what is the model that we defined? We defined it a model, a three-level model. The top level, well, it's not the top because it's not hierarchical. The center of the model is the core. In the core are all the stakeholders that have interest in Iberia.com, that have money, and they need to change in Iberia.com. And at this level, what we do is try to talk about the things that are cross. If you have a project that are touching two different businesses, you have to make sure that the priority for that business is the same that this one, otherwise, you will not be able to deliver because you have dependencies. So we try to figure out what are the dependencies and resolve conflicts. At that level, we have the solution architect of Iberia involved because the solution architect at this level has to try to identify what are the dependencies with other systems. Because as soon as you identify dependencies, you can start working on those dependencies. You start talking with other parties to then planify the work and have that work ready when you start implementing. Then we have a second level. You will see the squads, and every squad has two different levels. In the left-hand side, you have the cells and the development team. The cell is formed by the product owner, business analyst, US, and UI. What they are doing is trying to pick up the requirement at a very high level that are created in the core and do a fine game, and the input is an initiative, business initiative, and their output is used backlog with different user stories. A user story is a requirement that is very well defined from the functional point of view, but with enough information for a developer to be able to start to implement. In our case, we include the UI and UI as part of the requirements, and every cell can fit one or several development teams. The cell is like in the traditional scrum, the product owner, and the team, the development team is the development team. The development team is a full stack team with different technologies from apps, mobile apps, Angular, backend developers, it was inter-site, and every team also has a member that belongs to the chapter architecture. So the chapter architecture is like if I am a developer that I like architecture, I am working here in the development team, I like architecture, that is my focus, my passion. So what they do is they create a community, so every development team has a member of the chapter architecture, they create a community about architecture. So they can share things about that practice, they can be in contact with the solution architect and the enterprise architect, they can understand what are the principles of the architecture in AIG, and they can try to to conscientiate to the other people in the team how things have to be done, and they can identify also inside of the team that if we have to develop this functionality that has an implication in architecture, then I have to raise a flag and say to the solution architect. Okay, so this is the model, and then this is some photographers about the act when we created that model in an auto organization fashion. And other thing that we incorporated to the model is a ceremony that is the town hall meeting. We have a town hall every quarter at the beginning of the quarter, and the target of the town hall is to understand the business strategy for this quarter, what is business wanting to do in the application. So every business manager goes there and tell to all the people, when I say all the people, they say 160 people all together, and business managers comes and they tell us the business strategy, the sales, the product owners tell also the plan, align it with the business strategy, and then all the people together with a plan that they have about the implementation for the this quarter start talking to each other about the penances. So after those sessions of explaining the strategy, so in a big room we have different positions for different squads, and all the people goes through the different squads, and the product owner tell them in detail what is our plan for this quarter. And if you are, for example, someone for the ticketing systems and goes there, and then they tell you things, maybe you say, okay, if you want to do that, I have to do some change, because you will find that if you try to do this, this parameter is not in our process. So then we have to do things. So then you keep a positive, and then you have something to integrate as a ticketing system in your plan. So the target of this town hall meeting is try to manage all the dependencies we have with the people in front of you, talking about the things we are going to do, and talking, interacting with people is much more powerful that if we do this plan, this three months plan, based in emails or other kind of remote communication, it's much more powerful. And also we found that this kind of meetings, because all the people is together, and then you can know other people that is working in other areas that maybe you never see in the day-to-day, create a lot of synergies and a lot of motivation. And it's amazing that the last, for the last, sorry, we are finishing the time. It's amazing the result that meeting has. So basically I'm finishing the conversation, the rest of the points are key learning that we had in this phase that you can read in the PPTs, and then we are starting to work in the next level of change that we need to improve in the agenda formation. Please have a seat, Raul. We'll go through a few questions. Thank you very much for that. I think in your, you skipped over some of the key learnings in the interest of time. I think one of them might answer the first question, which was we heard earlier about a bimodal architecture approach. Is that how you would describe the situation in IAG? Bimodal architecture? Bimodal or two-speed or multi-speed? Two different spaces. Actually we have like three different levels. It's much more three levels than two. We have an architecture at the top level that we discussed when we have the core meeting, when all the stakeholders are together, and then we see the impact that the new functionality will have in the architecture, and then you miss the impact and the requirement that then we will have to change those pieces of software according with the principles of the architecture, the general principles. And another level is in the cells. When you are landing, when you are refining the requirements, then you find that there are some things also that are impacting that you cannot see at the high level. So architectures have also meetings every two months with all the cells, and they are explaining what is going to be the backlog for the two or three springs, coming springs, and so you can identify also other changes that you have to do. And also my happen is not the regular that when you are implementing in the SCRAM, you find some other implications. Okay, thank you. You mentioned user stories. Who creates those in your organization? User stories. User stories are created between the product owner and the business analyst. The differences in the product owner and business analyst is not so much. In our case, it's just legacy, because at the beginning, when we started to work, product owner work were in the business area, and the business analyst were in the business areas, and the requirements for IT were just one sentence. So we needed to hire a business analyst to try to translate that one sentence in something meaningful for the developers. But nowadays that we have been working with product owner and business analyst long time, and they know each other, and they know how the other guy is working as well. So there is a good synchronization, and so far, both of them are business product owners. But the product owner, PSL, is the responsible to create user stories. Okay, thank you. I'll combine two questions into one. When you got the teams together in the early stages, you mentioned the first two months, was that face-to-face, is the first part of the question? And secondly, you then talk about quarterly meetings, are they good enough, or should they be more frequent, do you think? Second part, you talked about quarterly meetings getting people together. Do you think that is regular enough, or should it be more regular than quarterly? Okay, let me explain. So the first phase, the phase zero in which we have this retrospective meeting, is very important to have that retrospective meeting face-to-face, because interaction is much more powerful than email, even much more powerful than when you are in remote. So you can do, essentially, it's much better. So there is a difference between the town hall meetings and the core. The core meeting in which all the stakeholders are together happen every Friday. So every Friday, we are discussing the things that are cross, things that are high level, and the stakeholder has a very good knowledge about how other things are going. The town hall meetings happen every quarter. It's enough. It's a lot of, so imagine 130 people in a meeting during a whole day. It's a very expensive meeting. It's not because it's expensive. It's enough because at that time you can plan the three coming months very well, and if you have any issues during the plan, because you see the other guy that is implicated in your project, you can go to his place and ask the questions. And so far it's enough, and it's a very powerful meeting. Okay. One for you maybe, Gary. What do you think of the term minimum viable architecture? It seems unarchitectural. The least amount of architecture possible doesn't sound like a good idea. What do you think? I think that makes sense. Actually, it is within the concept of photography itself. So when we do the ADM, we can choose what the scope of the ADM is, and that allows us to focus on really the partition of the architecture that we want to resolve at a very specific point in time and for a very specific initiative. So as I mentioned before, rather than trying to create the architecture for everything, it is better to just do a preliminary phase to identify things like the principles, the strategies, and so on. And from that perspective, and with an architecture vision probably for the whole lot, then focus on developing the architecture for specific necessities, primarily because those architectures and solutions are going to evolve with the time in an agile world. So sometimes it's also a waste of time if you want to resolve everything at the beginning, knowing that parts of it are not going to be used or are going to change. And we are at a time, but one more question because I'm interested in hearing you answer. What does IAG particularly hope to gain out of participation in the commercial aviation work group? So the principal focus, I believe, is the reference architecture. I think that will be one of the enablers for Group IT in the end that will provide us with the basement, let's say, for the different domain viewpoints, data architecture, applications, business architecture. So that will streamline quite a lot the ADM cycle in the end. So how to produce the architectures and the solutions to make it much more efficient to use the resources and to be able to deliver in less time and finally to become more agile. And it's the latest example of what we're doing in the open group in other industries as well is going to that reference architecture level and what it means for your particular industry. So we'll leave it there, gentlemen. Thank you both very much, Raul and Gary Klitz. Thank you. Thank you.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rFWnNygafY", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Is there anyone out there in the public that would like to make a statement? Again, topics that are not on tonight's agenda. I'm seeing no chats and no raise hands. Okay. With that, we'll go into the public hearing. We've got three items on the agenda tonight. Due to agenda item number one, the applicant not appearing to be present yet. We are going to shuffle up the order. So DP 19-18.1 bag riders is not present. We will put them off to the side for now. The other two applicants for tonight are DP 21-08, Kelly Barlin, and DP 09-01.20, the Snyder FC commercial properties LLC and Riley properties LLC for master sign plan amendment. So with that, we will kick off with DP 21-08. Kelly Barlin, who has this one for staff? Me. Okay. Go ahead, Emily. Kelly and Chris, can you say your name and address for the record, please? Hi, Kelly Barlin, 294 Wildflower Circle in Williston. Chris Haggerty, 305 Blackfly Hill, West Bolton. All right. So tonight is a pre-application review for a two-lot subdivision off of Shavbark Lane. The applicant is Kelly and his representative is Chris. What they are proposing to do is create two building lots and two open space lots on lot two. This lot is currently undeveloped except for the shared private driveway that shared with lots one and three from the former subdivision. This lot contains an inherent right to build one dwelling unit equivalent. So they would be adding a second dwelling unit. The property is 10.67 acres. It's currently vacant. They're proposing residential use. The access is private. It's in the agricultural rural zoning district. It is subject to conservation commission review and their memo is included. Tonight, we are recommending that this project, this pre-application move forward to growth management. However, we are noting that there are significant challenges related to access and open space design that may prevent the DRB from approving discretionary permit. And I would add to this further to say that it may just change how the subject subdivision is designed. And I'll get into the details on that further, but we are recommending approve the pre-apps so it can move to the growth management phase and then the details will get worked out at discretionary. Project history, this began in 2005 with a pre-app for a three-lot subdivision. It got approved in 2006. Since then, there have been some amendments to renew growth management allocation, reconfigure building envelopes, and do a boundary line adjustment with a neighboring parcel on Greenwood Drive meeting to today's application. Inter-departmental review, public works, and FIRE commented on this application. FIRE in particular has some concerns about access on this driveway. And staff is noting that there is some conflict between the development standards both in the bylaw, fire safety plan review, and public works. There may be a bylaw amendment in the future to access. And application only has vested rights when a discretionary permit is applied for. So if there's changes to that chapter before it's this application goes to discretionary, it might have to meet the new standards. The conservation also conducted a site visit on November 12th. We did receive two comment letters. Those are included. One comment letter also included information about their access easement from an abutting parcel. And staff notes that this is pre-app. It's time to look at complex projects in an informal way to invite comment and discussion. Project elements. The first to I call to your attention are vested rights for non-conforming lots uses and structures. Lots one through three were created under SUB 0605. Any substantial change to approve final plans can void the vested rights. And minor changes may be allowed. The creation of a new dwelling is a subdivision and considered a substantial change. The DRB's power to correct nonconformities is limited to requiring work that is reasonably proportional to the scale of development. This comes into play with both access and open space. And I can get into that further when we get to those two sections. Discretionary permit procedure similarly says that the DRB scope of review can be expanded when a property is not in full compliance with the final plans or the bylaw. In this case the property is not in compliance with the bylaw standards. It was developed under a former version of the bylaw. So for these two staff recommendations aren't included. We're just calling these standards to the DRB's attention when we discuss access and slopes. This property is located in the agricultural rural residential zoning district. We are including specific recommendations. In terms of development pattern this is where open space is required. On parcels greater than 10 and a half acres 75% must be set aside as its own parcel. The applicant's existing and proposed subdivision can comply with the standard. Where it gets tricky is 31276 which requires that slopes between 15 and 29% be included in the open space to the extent consistent with the landowner's right. So where the existing two building envelopes on the parcel are located and where the new one is proposed to be moved to could interfere with these slopes. The bylaw does allow for an exemption and allows for slope development to be permitted on those slopes but doing so the density is reduced to one dwelling unit per acre. If you reduce 10 acres excuse me um if you run that calculation either for 33 acres which is the overall sub original subdivision or 10.67 just looking at lot two it doesn't give the opportunity to add a second building lot. It would only support three houses on one on each of the three existing lots. Um home site design and open space developments uh lots can be no smaller than 15 000 square feet which is shown um and there are clearing limits. Access connectivity and traffic studies were including a specific recommendation. This development is served by shag bark lane an existing private driveway off butternut road butternut road is an unpaved town road. The town's authority on the portion of shag bark lane after lot five is limited because no change or development is proposed beyond lot five. I will note that for access we're looking at unit count regardless of bedrooms whereas density and growth management use the dwelling unit equivalent. Here it's just a house is a house no matter what. Um the access standards of chapter 13 limit a private driveway to a maximum of five dwellings and a maximum length of 1320 feet. The proposed amendment adding one dwelling would result in six dwelling units served by shag bark lane. The length of the existing private driveway um exceeds the limit is about 2000 feet. To resolve the non-conforming length and exceedance of the dwelling units allowed on a private driveway the first about 680 feet of shag bark would need to be upgraded to a road and this requires paving and curving to the public work specification. Not only could terrain make it challenging to meet the requirements of the public work spec the cost to construct and maintain a paved road could be prohibitive. The bylaw does allow an exemption to both the length and the number of units on a private driveway but with the reduced density of one dwelling per 10 acres again which wouldn't allow for that additional unit to be created. Unless the applicant can meet the current access standards under chapter 13 by upgrading a substantial portion of shag bark staff determines that due to access non-conformities any lot served by shag bark is not eligible for further subdivision. Since writing the staff report there could be an option as well to request a legal opinion from our town attorney before this proceeds to discretionary permit to understand more of what the legal implications are of the vested right standards in the bylaw and amending access that's currently platted as a 40 foot right of way. What follows is a table where line by line I compare what the bylaw standard is for access which I summarized. This project is expected to comply with off-street parking and on-site infrastructure. They're proposing private well and septic systems growth management. If it completes pre-application this year 2020 it'll go to growth management in March 2021. They would be requesting one unit of allocation because lot two has retained that inherent right to build. The project previously received points for a primitive trail easement. This application is also proposing a realignment of the trail easement which the conservation commission reviewed and is agreeable to so they would still probably receive points in that category. In terms of density this project complies with the allowed density both looking at the overall land holdings of the original subdivision and just lot two where that density does get tricky is when access and open space reduces it to one for 10 acres under those exemption standards. Residential improvements usually we don't talk about chapter 20 in the DRB however we are noting that accessory dwelling unit can be approved administratively as an allowed right to a primary dwelling unit. There are some limitations on how that lot can be developed and occupy but if subdivision is not a possibility there is an opportunity to create an accessory dwelling. No additional landscaping is anticipated given the arrangement of the open space providing an ample buffer. There are conservation areas on this site and we are including the conservation commission specific recommendations particularly that there be a habitat disturbance assessment at discretionary permit and also that there are uncommon rare or threatened species on this property. In this situation it's a dry oak hickory arboreum forest habitat so what will be required at discretionary permit is an opinion from Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department about the presence or absence of this community and then any recommendations that they have about how the development can be planned so it doesn't have an undue impact on that community and a recommendation is included. This parcel does have a high priority for the environmental reserve fund and it does have a desire for a primitive trail that easement is existing and will be realigned and the conservation commission agrees with that relocation. So watershed health the wetlands were delineated in 2016 and there are small pockets of class 3 and a small class 2 on the parcel. Lots 4 and 5 are north of the wetland and not likely to impact the wetland areas in their construction. There is a recommendation included and lastly outdoor lighting will need to comply at discretionary permit and impact fees will be assessed at the time of administrative permit. In the recommendations below originally I've wrote in cannot in recommendation number one I think the DRB should change that to may not and keep it vague as a recommendation because we'll be looking into this further as the application moves forward to discretionary permit maybe seeking a legal opinion. With that I conclude thank you. Okay thank you Emily just making a note of that change. Nice job Emily. Okay now it's the applicant's turn. What I would like to have you do as a starting point is so this is for Chris and for Kelly. Is if Emily could could put up on the screen the site plan I'd like you to walk us through you know what you are doing and talk a little bit about talk a little bit about the access challenges and talk a little bit about the slope please on the property which is which is pretty significant. Sure so I believe that the the slope it's going to be subject to a field study but a couple things to put in perspective let's talk about the road real quick the private lane it's referred to as a driveway but in 2009 I can't remember the exact date when it was built but I could pull that out but it was actually built to town standards it's an 18-foot wide lane with swales and dispersion trenches and all kinds of culverts and everything necessary to meet town standards so I I'd like for the DRB to just keep in the back of their mind my intent is not to convince you guys tonight that you know it should be a road but I would like to point out that back when this was approved it was up to town standards as being a private road okay that said the other point to note on the road is that the elevations on the approved plan for the road the steepest elevation on the road was actually um 12 grade so if you look at the where the road goes how you you come up off a shag bark and you you snake through it's pretty it's not much of a grade at all where you see this switch back there is a bit of a grade obviously that's why there was a switchback put in place but it's not until there you go you found it Emily um so this is the actual approved road plan from I free I can't remember the date Emily but believe 2006 2006 okay so if you look at the steepest grade it's it's I don't think you can read the numbers but if you can um the steepest grade is actually 12 percent okay so that while there there there are definitely some steep grades on this parcel what I'd like to note is that lots four and lots five they just run right along that road so in other words it doesn't drop off it's it uh you pretty much would be a flat driveway from the lane up onto lot five as well as lot four so I don't again it's it's I would think it's going to be subject to a field study or somebody to look at the lidar and the topos closer and um and maybe Chris can weigh in on it a little bit but I don't believe that that the slope is is even at 15 percent and if it was it it would be it would be at the very bottom of the 15 to 29 percent where we're talking about building right that's my understanding as well that like you said Kelly that road was was staked out and constructed as design so I have no reason to think that anything exceeds 12 percent and um you know I don't think that if we're doing any measurement off of lidar contours I don't think that's appropriate I think we should be basing it based on that design and or you know further field verification but the lidar may not capture that road as accurately as as needed to to kind of certify its compliance with the with the design the other point to note is that the the um existing lot that um is uh that stands that I can for all intensive purposes start to build on I guess pull a permit and start to build on is in essence lot five um it's just configured slightly differently um and if you take lot four and just put it below the switchback that was the original design of the property so there were actually two building envelopes um on this parcel and by moving lot four to north we're avoiding any wetland buffers we significantly moved it north of that and it's just overall it's just a better building lot because uh being in that switchback you are lower than the road where with lot four you're you're above the road so um for aesthetics for all kinds of reasons it just made sense to move lot four up above um what else would you guys like to know about the parcel itself Emily mentioned it's not in uh there's some class three contiguous wetlands way down below but they tend to be on yeah down there um majority of them are are not even on this lot and the wetlands as they're outlined that's right where there are right where there are culverts um Emily made reference to a primitive path if you look at the southerly part of the lot Emily can you um yeah so the beginning the beginning of the primitive path can you go to the yeah the beginning of the primitive path was set to be right where Emily has the arrow so this house um just south of the arrow that's the peter judge home that's the judge residence so what we were thinking when we did the the walk with melinda scott and the the conservation commission um what's also not listed on here and i don't know if Emily you want to pull it up but right right uh there is a right of way that the judge property has access to shag bark lane um on the lower part Emily do you do you actually remember where it is i think it's in the vicinity of the words open space on our plan but there you go there you are so might be a little bit hard to put in perspective but um yeah so the peter the peter allison the peter and allison judge home so it yeah it's it's right around there um where there's a right away so the reason why i'm bringing that to your attention is because we thought that it would make sense if the trail and or beginning wasn't right by this residence here um so i'm indifferent honestly i mean we could leave it there and it can be the trail could be built out i just thought uh to maintain um this uh this residence uh privacy a bit if you moved it up by the right of way then um it would end there so people could walk up shag bark and enter the the uh primitive path there so again um i think it's a good idea to move there if we move forward with the discretionary and get the approval that's what would be um put on the plat but right now as it stands um it is it is uh on the current plat as it's shown on this map okay anything else um i think that about covers it there was some reference to the the fire department um laying reference to the the road itself and uh having pull-offs and the like but i think that um i i think that that's anticipating that it really is truly a driveway i mean it this truly is an 18 foot wide road so you can get a fire truck going up and cars going down at the same time so i i don't see access being an issue with a with a fire truck the distance off the road is is something that i know is in the the bylaws but uh i did want to lay mention to that and i think that's pretty much um what i wanted to bring up okay uh christ do you have anything to add before we turn it over to the board i don't think so i did have one question i think in emily staff notes there was mention of six units on shag bark and i was just wondering where the sixth unit comes from i know we have the judge property accessed um and two of kelly's previous lots that i've been built on we're adding two more i'm assuming that that that right of way which we neglected to show we weren't aware of of that right of way in the crunch of time to get this plan together i'm assuming that peter judges um new right of way that's not depicted um counts as one of those uses so we're counting um lot 19 shag bark lane or address 19 shag bark lane its driveway is the first one on your left okay yeah gotcha and it is it is a the thing to point out about that property is just until recently it did have a but or not address um yes it did have a uh it does have right of way onto shag bark but i think it was in the last year or two that it was actually um that it was given a shag bark address versus having a but or not address yeah there was a bla between um 19 shag bark and 101 shag bark and part of that approval public works wants consolidated access the one point on but or not road is limited to agricultural use only and the house has its driveway off shag bark so that just sort of happened with um i wasn't aware of that that change but okay uh anything else before i turn it over to the board no i'm good thank you okay you're welcome um okay drb board members any questions so kelly scott reilly the um have you checked the uh have you checked the the road standards recently you know i know i knew you built this quite a while ago um have you checked the public works on what the current road standards are i haven't checked with public works scott but i do believe that what the fire department was asking for was that the road be widened to 24 feet if it was going to if it was going to um have six dwellings on it rich okay a little nuts up yeah i think that might be obviously something you got to look into i think we're into a couple of generations ago from when you built this to what's going to where the standards are now right i agree okay thank you scott uh anyone else there are there any uh are there any plans to go further than lot five um so there's a kelly where's your where's your house uh my house would be lot five scott are you way up your let's see now up at the top is the harder residence that's harder okay yeah yes and there's a there's a hammerhead built to spec just uh at the beginning of my property line okay so um emily you referenced the uh a legal review your eye your idea there you want to run through that yeah so we're recommending approving the pre-app tonight um and before this goes forward to discretionary permit um matt and i will talk to the town attorney and ask for his legal opinion on the the vested rights of an existing driveway and adding additional units to an existing driveway um that was created under old specifications so so does that speak to whether or not the uh the driveway would be subject to be um built to the current standards is that the issue correct it's upgraded to the current standards okay and what's up into sorry to interrupt but to what point would it need to be improved i know we i know you touched on that in the staff notes but it wouldn't be in its entirety correct it would be only be to the point where it needs to be road versus driveway and based on number of uses correct so the entire length of the driveway is about 2600 feet from butternut road all the way to the house on lot three just to lot five is which is here is 2000 feet but our by-law says a private driveway can be no longer than 1300 feet so um what would end up happening would the first 600 700 feet would have to get upgraded to a private road so that the private driveway beyond it is no longer than 1320 feet and what i'm saying is that the town's authority ends at the access point for lot five because that's where change is being proposed we wouldn't be looking at 1320 feet all the way to lot three because that's existing um and is not being proposed to change but if if the public work standards are 18 feet if the road was constructed to the standards that are still in place today that is no longer an issue right if if the if the road if if this road still meets the current public work standards then that's not an issue because then it's considered a private road right well the public work specifications don't have standards for anything that's unpaved um what our by-law says is five or fewer dwellings can be on a private driveway and then more than that or that longer length you get bumped up to public work specifications which would be um a paved private road really there's no there's no allowance for wow for for gravel roadway even though we have town gravel roads in real estate correct interesting so you'd be going from a dirt road but or not onto a road of yeah i'm shaggy back yeah yeah and the bylaw does give an exemption to that because obviously having that paved road in the middle of dirt roads is out of character but the only exemption is that one dwelling for 10 acres okay yeah those places where the bylaw does allow exemptions it's with a reduce a reduction in density so applying applying some common sense to this and i'm just uh the the thing to keep in mind is um i could build on a larger lot five tomorrow and also have an accessory structure um with a two bedroom dwelling not to exceed 1500 feet so in essence if i if i did nothing um if i if i pulled this then i could be building in essence two structures but you couldn't but you couldn't sell off that second structure correct that's the rub that's the rub yeah so it would uh it yeah so really what i'm looking to do is to be able to subdivide the close to 11 acres into two nice size lots that i i don't the lane that is on there i don't know if the members of the d rb have been on it but uh it's uh it's worth a drive it's it's plenty wide so i understand i was for those that don't know i was on the d rb for 12 years um so i i know what you guys have to go through um and i'm sensitive to that so uh that's back that's back in ancient history yeah it is it's one we rode our horses um but um it's not plenty wide if you got two of today's modern fire engines side by side in a winter condition with plow banks yeah that that's true all that i'm saying is that it's it's wide enough for you could fit two fire trucks side by side on the road this is dave turner i did take a ride down the road and while i was on the road i did meet another vehicle and there was no problem by passing another vehicle but again we have to go by the standards thank you dave how did you find the uh the steepness on the on that road the steepness on the road was fine until you got up to the top building a lot of top house unit there but it is uh curbed enough so that uh you don't go straight up the bank so it's not bad the only thing i didn't notice is was the fire truck turner man so that's right up at the top okay there's according i think the public works wants them like 400 feet apart so if you do go in those lots would there be an issue making the driveway wide enough for the fire truck to turn around in okay something to consider anyways yes thank you okay thank you dave uh anyone else from the drb with questions i guess i have just a general question for for staff on the public work standards i mean if we feel that they're um do we have any jurisdiction to go against what public work standards are or if if it's required to be paved it's required to be paved and we have nothing to say about that avid i i can jump in on that um the question at hand that that we've talked about asking council would be more to the point of if shag bark lane was built to a standard that was understood to be an acceptable standard for a road by the town at the time it was permitted are there are there vested rights for the applicant to continue to have shag bark lane treated as a as a road for the purposes of reviewing additional development as opposed to if all of what's in front of the board tonight on on that plan that's accessed from shag bark lane was proposed today we would be applying today's standard blank slate so it's it's not so much a question of modifying the public work standard it's a question of at what point in the lifespan of a development um when a road is permitted and constructed if it's understood as a road at the time that that happens does the town have an entry to require it to be modified later on to support further development um and you know the town has some recent experience in in these matters related to field stone drive in the divita subdivision off of oakill road um where you know we did find that there are some limitations to what a town can say about um what needs to happen to something that was built out of as a road at the time it was constructed thanks matt thank you matt matt do you want to can you want to just touch on what um what david asked prior to that your explanation about our ability to bend public works's requirements yeah you you don't that's what yeah right um so so you know well let me let me put it this way what we say about private roads in our zoning bylaw is that they shall be constructed to public works standards um which are the standards public work and works imposes when a road is constructed that the town of williston might end up taking over um and you know built into that policy is the anticipation that um the town might find itself in the position of needing to take over a previously private road um at some point and would want it to be constructed um to the condition um that it would that it would require if it was built with the intent of it becoming a town road so there's you know there's there's some variability in there which emily pointed out in the staff report in terms of under today's rules what can be a road and what can be a driveway and you know this limitation on density that comes into play um if you allow uh a driveway to exceed these standards but i would say the bylaw sets pretty clear boundaries there um generally in terms of how a road is built um we're going to we're going to go to public works and defer to them um we're not talking necessarily tonight about how a road will be built but rather how it was built when it was built and what it was understood to be by the town at that time and you know this is this is not the only road in Williston that that does not meet any currently adopted public work specification for a road um you know literally any dirt road in town there is no town specification for those roads anymore um and we we have some other um private roads in town that certainly don't don't meet spec either okay thank you matt uh any other questions or comments by d rb members okay is there anyone out in the public uh who has a question or would like to make a statement on this application raised hands in their chats okay uh chris and kelly uh any last comments um no i think we did a pretty good job covering it thank you i just like i'd just like to thank emily and melinda for their help in getting the application together yeah thank you guys yep they do a good job they do thank you for mentioning that that's appreciated okay uh last chance for questions okay seeing no activity uh we will close dp 21-08 at 801 uh thank you very much for coming thank you have a great evening you as well okay emily has uh has the first uh applicant on the agenda are they present or are they still um still have not arrived they have not arrived um okay okay mr chairman you're being paged i thank you uh we didn't we our our office was not involved with the preparation of this application but um while the first agenda item was being discussed i did contact the property owner and he's authorized me um to represent the application if bag riders don't show up so that they aren't kicked to the first meeting in january now that doesn't mean we have to take up that agenda item now we can leave it at the at the end of the agenda at the end of the agenda whatever the the board's preference is i did email them um the corrected link just because i thought they might be trying to get on and i have not heard anything back so okay uh andy uh you are probably one of the most trustworthy people that i know but uh we don't let it go don't let it go to his head come on what uh what documentation do you have that we can use as verification of that statement none i spoke with glenn i spoke with glenn comings the landowner uh by phone again while the the first agenda item was was under discussion so i i don't have any documentation other than my phone call with him about 25 minutes ago okay and you and you were the engineer on that project we were the engineer on the project we did the original master sign plan we just weren't involved uh with bag riders application to amend the current sign the current master sign plan but we will be because i suspect that uh one of the staff proposed conditions is going to be that the master sign plan be updated to reflect what they're proposing in terms of submission of final plans okay uh i'm satisfied we we will we will take that application up last tonight because um you're gonna you're gonna be present either way yep so um this way uh uh chris and whoever else is present can uh can be heard on their application and uh and then you can be free to go chris so uh so with that um we will open up dp09-01.20 which is a master sign plan uh addendum for the Snyder FC commercial properties LLC and Riley properties LLC uh Scott i assume you are recusing yourself on this one yep i am recusing myself from this hearing as i have a financial interest in the property okay uh very good uh and uh and chris and andy you are the representation for for for this application scott are you going to be uh are you going to be participating in this or are you on the sidelines you're muted i'm on the sidelines thanks okay okay so chris and andy you're representing the applicant yes okay if you would please for the record state your name and address please andy roe lamar on dickinson 14 morris drive Essex chris Snyder Snyder FC commercial 4076 shelvin road suite six shelvin great thank you uh who's got this one for staff um i have this one for staff i'm going to go ahead and share my screen all right um so this is a second round hearing um this item was heard on november 24th this is a proposal to modify an existing master sign plan uh related to the commercial portion of the finny crossing development in the taff corners zoning district um we had an initial discussion with the development review board about the applicant's proposal on november 24th and and the board provided some feedback to the applicant about um how it saw itself potentially ruling as it relates to making special findings under the comprehensive plan and williston development bylaw language as it relates to larger and more numerous signs that are included in a proposal as part of a master sign plan um the general advice of the development review board at that time was that the um sign on the southern facade of the building as pictured in the staff report should be reduced in size um and that some of the other sign elements that the applicant had thought about eliminating be be re-included in the plan including sandwich boards um within the plan so the applicant has submitted a revised sign plan uh that sign plan takes this 160 square foot window sign on the elevation in question and reduces it to a 50 foot um sign which is about the area of of two of these uh large glass panels on the site uh it brings back some of the lamppost banners uh and the sandwich boards that were originally part of the master sign plan prior to this proposal and i'm going to bring you down um to the amendment this amendment does meet the requirement that all signage fall within the eight percent of street-facing facade uh maximum limitation remembering that this is eight percent of the facades of each of the commercial buildings but that the signage doesn't have to exactly correlate to the building rather it's a site-wide limit um i have quoted here the special language related to larger signs but noting that by reducing the 160 square foot apple logo to 50 square feet um we we brought that window signed down to the 25 limit of that glass area on the building so the recommendation tonight is for the drb to uh have this conversation with the applicant about the changes deliberate on the project staff recommendation is for approval and i just want to go into the summary of the signs that are in the draft condition of approval showing the reduced size here at 50 square feet of the large sign that we were discussing um the slight decrease in light pole signs from a total 435 square feet down to 450 the other thing staff is recommending because there's room within the eight percent maximum is to uh go up from what the applicant was asking for at five sandwich boards go up to six this allows one for each of the three major commercial tenants on each side of the building since there's since there's room there for it staff suggestion was include that six six square foot sandwich board and i'm going to stop there and stop screen sharing for the moment i can bring the site plan back up with me okay thank you matt uh first order business uh chris and andy uh are you in agreement with the staff recommendation to add the additional sandwich board yes okay uh what uh what else do you have to uh to add and uh that that to supplement what matt did uh just a couple of things just to note that all of the window signs now are proposed to be no more than 25 of the window area so there's no increase being proposed there um and the other thing that staff had suggested was um modifying the sign table so that a couple of the other retail spaces could potentially have projecting signs and i think that's a great idea uh the only thing that we would ask is that they had suggested that the two signs on the north side jn five and jn six that would be the the two westerly tenants in this building um be potentially eligible for projecting signs a tenant that had expressed interest in the westerly space um had actually proposed a projecting sign so we'd like to also request that the one sign on the west face of the building jw one also be eligible to be a projecting sign as well other than that no no other comments on what uh staff presented um it's consistent with the plans as submitted okay great thank you andy no i'd like to say just one thing uh you know i appreciate the drb's guidance and information and help um and i think it helped uh clarify the approaches and uh i thought it was a good discussion at the last meeting i appreciate uh the thought that you guys gave back to us oh thank you um didn't want to get it back in the queue you know that was that was what we were trying to do yep anything else chris no okay drb members any questions yeah one question just how big a projection are they do they want on that sign well the sign wouldn't be any larger as a projecting sign than is being proposed as a wall sign it would just have the ability for a different type of signage with the the sign projecting out from the face of the building being perpendicular to it as opposed to being mounted on the face of the building flush with the face of the building yeah i'm just saying it's not like walla walla washington eight year kind of length of sign sticking out right no no and i i'm not i can't recite them for you but i know having looked at the projecting sign requirements before there are specific limitations on um you know similar to freestanding signs and wall signs there are similar uh restraint on projecting signs okay sounds good and andy this is john hemelgarn that was jw1 that you want to switch to be a projecting sign correct the single uh one sign on the west elevation of the building yeah i've got my plan out now so i can see that i think that's a great idea that's my only comment okay thank you john uh other members of the drb questions uh members of the public uh are there any uh questions on this application no chats and no raised hands okay uh last call for for questions or comments by uh the applicant or drb members okay hearing done uh we are going to close dp09-01.20 uh at 813 uh thank you very much for coming thank you very much for your time tp19-18.1 master sign plan amendment uh Cummings master sign plan uh who is uh andy you're here for you're representing the applicant yes if you would uh for the record state your name us please andy roe limerland dickinson 14 morris drive sx representing glenn Cummings and uh bag riders thank you uh who's got this one for staff um so this is a request to an amendment an existing master sign plan um located at 347 shun pike road it's one of the roe bear lots um and uh hat currently has a sign plan um um for the Cummings development um so basically this is just uh a request to take out um five six square foot wall signs and replace them with a single 31 square foot wall sign um and uh staff's recommending approval of the master sign plan amendment um with conditions of approval um this is the first time the first amendment the drb has reviewed related to this master sign plan the original master sign plan was approved under dp19-18 um july 9th 2019 um none of the other departments police fire public works have submitted any comments for this application and no comment letters were received at the time of the mail out um so the applicant is proposing um a master sign plan amendment that allows for a wall sign in excess of the usual limitation of 24 square feet um um again they're proposing the replacement of one six foot square wall six square foot wall sign with a 31 square foot wall sign and the elimination of four wall signs each at square six square feet in size so the net additional wall area wall sign area for the site is uh one square foot um um and there are this is a newly developed lot there's no non-conforming signs and the existing master sign plan um was approved for a new site development um so the frontage requirements are still met with this amendment the potential maximum sign area is 157 square feet and this proposed amendment would put the um that uh proposed total sign area at 151 square feet um just it might be just a little bit easier if I just show you the site plan and um what's being proposed so the final uh plans for the previous master sign plan have these four signs uh listed j k l and m those are proposing to be eliminated and um this sign would be replaced with a larger sign over here with the hundred with the uh 31 square foot sign um so I think that is all I have and and uh I there is a recommendation um or a condition of approval just stating that final plans must show all existing and approved sign locations um in plan and elevation view um and must include a table of approved sign locations and dimensions sorted by sign type um that's all I have okay thank you Melinda uh Andy recognizing you didn't have a lot of time to digest this uh do you uh do you have any concerns with the proposed conditions of approval nope I think um I did have a chance to review things uh earlier and you know Melinda summarized it pretty well they're taking five signs and uh or eliminating four signs and making the fifth one larger yep okay so you you don't have any concern with any of the proposed conditions of approval no okay right thank you uh DRB members do you have any questions I'm good I'll set I'm fine just one question is this because bag writers is taking over that whole side of the building basically yes I was out there today for the work happening next door and yes I believe they're taking that that whole side of the building okay the only reason I ask the question is so if for any reason they left we potentially are going to be revisiting this by taking one big sign down putting up the little signs if it breaks it up back into little subsections again right that's correct when the building was originally um proposed it was intended to be split up into um basically three to six or uh divided or combined into 3000 square foot increments and in this case bag risers is is taking 9000 square feet um if they were to leave and a tenant was to come in and take a smaller space there would be a need to amend the multi master sign master sign plan again in order to revert back to something similar to this okay sounds good looks like we got permanent employment ahead of us Andy what is bag riders I had to look them up they do air system custom air suspension so when you see those cars that are sitting low to the ground or trucks or any kind of vehicles that's what they do they replace they replace the shock absorbers and the springs and allow you to inflate them and deflate them and change all kinds of change change the whole geometry of the uh underneath side of the car in effect you're riding on an airbag okay thank you okay um any other questions you're good Andy all set yes thank you okay good um okay we're going to close DP 19-18.1 the Cummings master sign plan amendment to reflect the tenant bag riders we're going to close this at 821 uh thank you Andy thank you good evening right okay uh we are now going to go into deliberative session uh at 821 Tuesday

fun yes and and done well yes that's the way it should be uh well before I call for a motion to adjourn I wish everybody happy holiday season thank you very much for your support of the be in 2020 in this virtual world uh the staff um you did a tremendous job pivoting to this virtual um meetings I think they really came off without really any major hiccups and and you're to be commended for that so thank you very much I second I second that I third that you're here thank you it means a lot yes Pete I was thinking earlier did did we do uh growth management via zoom last year we must have yeah we did that was our first meeting I was just thinking it must have been either the first or the second meeting and that would have been quite a test yeah I think everything blew up in mid-march yeah St. Patty's Day and yeah St. Patrick's Day is forever tainted yes because they had to close the bars early yeah what they what'd they do with all that green beer they put it in the savannah river and so then yeah growth management was our first zoom call and yes that was interesting we were all it was all new to us certainly wasn't me yeah I was still trying to figure out how to keep my computer my computer network here at home was not yet improved well it seemed to be working well working out pretty well for everybody now it's great works it works very well yeah I do you know with any you know with any luck and roll out of vaccine we maybe maybe next summer we can be back back together we'll see how that plays out hey have we ever done an outdoor meeting not that I can recall not to hear items although you've done you know site visit yeah well maybe we accept the gazebo there I want to put in one plug before you go okay over the break and the holiday when we return your first meeting in January there's one hearing item on the agenda but I'm also going to be bringing you the consultant team that's helping the town work on its development standards for the growth center and I they're going to be asking you to think about what you feel like in the tap corners area in terms of development standards has been working not working how how it how it's been going administering the code what what maybe you wished the code said that it doesn't say or did that it doesn't do or does that that you wish it didn't do but we are we are moving forward with a project to significantly retool the development standards in Williston's growth center and you'll have an opportunity to have an audience with that consultant team at that first meeting in January so as you're as you're doing your last minute shopping if you're doing any of it in person in Williston um think of some of think of some of the site developments that have come through the board in the last you know 10 years or so um and uh what what you like and don't like about them and and what you might want to see different so Matt let me ask you a question given given that uh my company is uh uh it's significantly involved in that is that something uh you want me participating in should I be a side on that it's just an advisory conversation um so this I can give you I can talk for an hour on that subject this this would be not that similar from from connecting the planning commission uh with the drb to to talk about development standards uh at the end of the day all that's going to matter is what the select board really adopts um and um there's there's significant um public involvement uh that needs to happen but we recognize in a small place like Williston a lot of our um most involved people are also serving on boards and and value the input so okay I keep keep that in mind as you're sort of looking around Taft Corners uh what would you want this place to turn into in the next you know 25 or 50 years and and what's your experience been as a as a board member administering the current rules okay great keep an eye on that thanks all right is there a motion to adjourn I'll make some moves Dave Turner makes a motion is there a second sure Scott Riley seconds it uh any further discussion all those in favor any opposed all right thank you everybody happy holidays Merry Christmas Dave and COVID-free you got it	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rdhJQnl4l0", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }
UCjMipuAldeMlewc_dWxrLZQ	2. Crowdinvesting Symposium 2014 - Marktentwicklung und Regulierungsperspektiven in Europa	Unter dem Motto "After Crowdinvesting: Anschlussfinanzierung, Exit Strategien und Verwässerungsschutz" haben der Lehrstuhl für Bürgerliches Recht und Unternehmensrecht am 4. Juli 2014 das zweite Crowdinvesting Symposium an der LMU München veranstaltet. Auf dem Programm standen neben einer wissenschaftlichen Tagung und einem studentischen Workshop ein Vortrag zu Marktentwicklungen und Regulierungsperspektiven in Europe von Dr. Lars Hornuf sowie die Keynote Lecture "After Crowdinvesting: Second Rounds, Exit Startegies and Dilution Protection" von Professor Armin Schwienbacher. In der anschließenden Podiumsdiskussion mit Vertreter einer Crowdinvesting-Plattform, einer Anwaltskanzlei, eines VC-Investors sowie eines Startups wurde über die aktuellen Entwicklungen im Bezug auf Anschlussfinanzierung, Exit Strategien und Verwässerungsschutz im Crowdinvesting diskutiert.	[ "Crowdinvesting Symposium", "Crowdinvesting", "Equity Crowdfunding", "LMU München", "Gründer", "FinTech", "Crowdfunding" ]	2017-11-13T21:47:07	2024-04-18T18:21:48	1,183	5REtyINpQeQ	This podcast is brought to you by LMU Munich. Sie sehen im Jahr 2011 im vierten Quartal ging es im Prinzip mit Seedmatch und Inovestment los. Die beiden Portal haben die ersten Emissionen durchgeführt und Seedmatch konnte hier noch im vierten Quartal weniger als eine halbe Million Euro emittieren oder insgesamt platzieren. Im zweiten Quartal 2014 waren es dann schon über 4 Millionen Euro, die Seedmatch allein am Markt platzieren konnte. Dann kommt Inovestment drauf, auch ein sozusagen Early Bird des Crowd Investing. Dann haben wir hier Komponist, die vor allem im zweiten Quartal 2013 oder im dritten Quartal 2013 und im ersten Quartal 2014 relativ erfolgreich waren und mehr als eine Million Euro emittieren konnten. Und dann haben wir hier Bergfürst, die mittlerweile eine einzige Emission durchgeführt haben, aber dann gleich richtig mit 3 Millionen Euro insgesamt im vierten Quartal 2013. Das sind alle anderen Portale. Und wenn man sich den Gesamtmarkt anschaut, seit im Jahr 2011, dann haben wir mittlerweile insgesamt 27,7 Millionen Euro eingesammelt, stand 1. Juli 2014 und das ist nur bezogen auf Crowd Investing, also die Finanzierung von Start-up-Unternehmen, nicht Projekten. Wie hat sich der Markt entwickelt? Im ersten Jahr war das ungefähr eine halbe Million Euro, für die Monatidis gedauert hatte im ersten Zeitraum. Dann hat sich es ungefähr von Neuenfacht im Jahr 2012 mit 4,5 Millionen Euro. Im Jahr 2013 waren es dann 15 Millionen Euro. Und meine persönliche Prognose für das Jahr 2014 sind 16 Millionen Euro. Es sei denn Bergfürst emittiert wieder einmal 3 Millionen Euro, dann steigt es vielleicht auf 19 Millionen Euro. Aber wie Sie sehen, die Wachstumsraten des Crowd Investing sind nicht mehr so rasant, wie es am Anfang mal der Fall war. Vielleicht hat man hier auch eine gewisse Kapazitätsschwelle erreicht, was man überhaupt finanzieren kann am deutschen Crowd Investing Markt. Wie viele Start-ups wurden finanziert? Hier sehen Sie die monatlichen Finanzierung von Start-ups, die erfolgreich waren. Also das sind die Anzahl an Finanzierungen, die durchgeführt wurden. Insgesamt sind das 140. Auf der unteren Achse sind sie abgetragen, die Start-ups, die eben nicht finanziert wurden, die kein Geld bekommen konnten. Interessant ist natürlich auch, wie viele von diesen Crowd-Finanzierungen überhaupt erfolgreich waren oder ob es schon Insolvenzen gibt. In der Tat gibt es schon erste Start-ups, die insolvent gegangen sind. Das sind insgesamt vier Start-ups, das heißt aber fünf Finanzierungen, da ein Start-up davon zwei Finanzierungen platzieren konnte. Das heißt insgesamt sind fünf der Finanzierungen bislang ausgefallen. Ein Start-up wurde bislang liquidiert. Ein zweites ist momentan in der Liquidationsphase, weil einfach nicht genügend Eigenkapital da war, um die Insolvenz zu eröffnen. Man ist masser abgelehnt und ein weiteres Start-up ist momentan im Insolvenz-Prüfungsverfahren. Wenn man das vergleicht mit dem KfW-Gründungsmonitor und sich anschaut, was da die Ausfallquoten sind innerhalb von einem Jahr, dann ist es so, dass das Crowd-Investing eigentlich vergleichsweise gut noch derzeit abschneidet, was aber auch unter anderem daran liegen kann, dass beim Crowd-Investing bislang die besten Unternehmen vielleicht rausgepickt wurden und sozusagen die Unternehmen, die vielleicht weniger Erfolgsaussichten haben, werden vielleicht möglicherweise erst noch zu finanziert, aber das wird man in den nächsten Jahren sehen. Wie segmentiert sich der Markt auf die einzelnen Protale? Die 140 Finanzierungen, davon wurden 59 durch Seedment durchgeführt erfolgreich, 28 von InnoVestment, 27 von Companisto und 8 von Funsters. Die restlichen 18 Finanzierungen teilen sich auf die verbleibenden Protale. Jetzt wird Herr Sandler von Bergwurst wahrscheinlich sagen, das ist unfair, weil die Marktegmentierung nach Volumen ist viel relevanter und in der Tat. SeedMatch ist auch hier weiterhin der Marktführer mit 15,8 Millionen Euro. Hier kommt Companisto allerdings auf Platz 2. Der Grund dafür ist, dass Companisto einfach andere Finanzierungsformen genutzt hat. Über den Lauf der Zeit, nämlich hier Pazari Hidanin und deshalb auch größere Finanzierungsvolumen generieren konnte. Auf Platz 3 kommt dann hier Bergwurst, die Aktien emittiert haben und auf Platz 4 jetzt InnoVestment. Die restlichen Protale konnten insgesamt 1,6 Millionen Euro platzieren. Jetzt kann man sich natürlich auch fragen, wie ist das mit den Portalen? Da gibt es einen Wachstum an dem Markt für Portale. Insgesamt sind derzeit 12 erfolgreiche Portale am Markt aktiv. Das heißt, diese Portale haben mindestens eine Finanzierung durchgeführt und waren mindestens einmal erfolgreich und sind derzeit noch am Markt aktiv. Mittlerweile gibt es sieben Portale, die vielleicht schon mal eine erfolgreiche Finanzierung hatten, aber nicht mehr als Crowdinvesting-Portale aktiv sind und mittlerweile ein anderes Geschäftsmodell verfolgen oder einfach das Crowdinvesting komplett eingestellt haben. Also es ist nicht so, dass alle Portale einfach erfolgreich abschneiden und das Wachstum auch auf dem Portalmarkt unendlich in die Höhe schießt. Und bisher ist es so, dass 4 Portale erste Finanzierung auf den Markt gebracht haben, aber noch nicht erfolgreich abschließen können. Also bei denen kann man erwarten, dass sie auch in Zukunft eventuell aktive Crowdinvesting-Portale sein werden. Wie verteilt sich die Finanzierung von Start-ups regional? Ich habe Ihnen hier die großen drei Portale mitgebracht. Zunächst mal Seedmatch. Da sehen Sie, 18 Finanzierung wurden in Berlin durchgeführt, 11 in Hamburg und 10 in München. Der Rest verteilt sich so etwas über Deutschland. Bei Ininvestment gibt es auch besonders viele Finanzierung in Berlin, 11, 2 allerdings so in München, 1 in Hamburg und der Rest verteilt sich wiederum auf Deutschland. Und bei Companisto sehen Sie, dass es einen relativ großen Homebuy es gibt. Viele Finanzierung werden bei Companisto in Berlin durchgeführt, insgesamt 22. Man kann also sagen, dass es in Deutschland auch so eine Art Silicon Valley-Effekt gibt. Also die meisten Start-ups, wie Sie wahrscheinlich alle wissen, sitzen in Berlin und dort finden auch viele Crowdfinanzierung statt. Interessant ist hier allerdings, dass München immer noch leicht vor Hamburg liegt mit anderer Finanzierung mehr als bei den Hamburgen. Wie hat sich der Markt anderswo entwickelt? Es gibt ein einziges Land in Europa, was deutlich mehr Finanzierungsvolumen generieren konnte. Das ist das Vereinigte Königreich mit 25,6 Millionen Euro im Jahr 2013 allein. Hier ist das Crowdinvesting ein bisschen anders strukturiert, denn hier investiert man in Limited Liability Companies, nicht wie in Deutschland. Also man bekommt in Deutschland keine GmbH Anteile, weil es einfach zu schwierig wäre, diese Anteile zu transferieren. Man bräuchte immer nur Tarde, das für einen macht. Das geht in Großbritannien etwas einfacher, deshalb hat man diese Finanzierung von Limiteds. Ein anderer Markt, der relativ interessant ist, ist die Schweiz. Im Jahr 2013 waren es da 4,6 Millionen Euro. Wenn man sich die anderen großen Märkte in Europa anschaut, also Spanien, Italien, Frankreich und so weiter, dann liegen die alle so in diesem Range, können aber nicht über den deutschen oder den britischen Markt hinauskommen. Bevor ich auf die Regulierung des Crowdinvesting-Marktes eingehen möchte, möchte ich kurz noch mal darauf eingehen, was denn der Unterschied zwischen Crowdfunding und Crowdinvesting ist. Also viele von Ihnen wissen den oder kennen den Unterschied vielleicht, aber ich denke, es ist nochmal gut, das ins Gedächtnis zu rufen, was man denn überhaupt regulieren sollte oder eben nicht. Beim Crowdfunding ist es so, dass Investoren davon profitieren, wenn sie einmal investiert haben, von der Realisierung eines Projektes. Und das kann bedeuten, die bekommen entweder eine finanzielle Gegenleistung am Ende, wie beim Crowdinvesting, oder sie bekommen auch nur eine Art Gegenleistung, ein sogenanntes Perk, die werden im Abspann eines Films genannt, dürfen die Hand einmal schütteln von dem Künstler, der dann das Album produziert hat oder ähnliches, oder sie spenden das Geld nur oder sie kaufen auch einfach nur ein Produkt vorab und möchten das Produkt bekommen. Die Investitionsgründe sind beim Crowdfunding wahrscheinlich deutlich anders als beim Crowdinvesting, denn hier hätte Investor ein Claim oder einen recht, einen zukünftigen Zahlungsströmen des Unternehmens. Und warum ist das anders? Zum einen, weil die Unternehmen komplexer sind. Es gibt verschiedene Agenturprobleme in einem Unternehmen. Ich muss das Kunderteam besser kennen. Ich investiere auch langfristig, wenn ich beim Crowdinvesting aktiv bin. Investiere ich im Schnitt zwischen drei und sieben Jahren. Ich muss mir klar sein, dass diese Investition nicht gleich liquidiert werden kann oder ich sie nicht gleich verkaufen kann. Und ich erwarte auch ganz klar eine finanzielle Rendite. Und wenn ich eine finanzielle Rendite erwarte, ist es einfach Teil meines Portfolios, was ich ein High-Risk investiere und ich rechne einfach auch damit, dass ich das Geld am Ende irgendwann zurückbekomme. Zumindest den Erwartungswert, der da zu erwarten ist. Okay, was haben die Gesetzgeber in Europa gemacht? Also viele von ihnen wissen vielleicht, in den USA gab es den Jobs Act, der implementiert wurde, bis zum Stage 2. Aber die Crowdinvesting-Regulierung, Stage 3, Jobs Act ist immer noch nicht in Place. Das sollte schon vor eineinhalb Jahren fasiert sein, hat aber noch nicht stattgefunden. In Italien wurde im Dezember 2012 das erste Gesetz implementiert und dort wurde vor allem das Startup als solches reguliert. Die Italiener haben den Begriff des innovativen Startups geschaffen. Also nicht allgemein, aber jetzt in diesem Gesetz. Und so ist es so, dass die Startups bis zu 5 Millionen Euro ohne Wertpapierprospekt emittieren dürfen. Allerdings müssen dafür bestimmte Bedingungen erfüllt sein. Zum einen, es dürfen nur natürliche Personen, die Mehrheit der Anteile halten. Das Startup darf nicht älter als vier Jahre alt sein. Die Geschäftstätigkeit und das Management muss den Sitz in Italien haben. Der Umsatz im zweiten Geschäftsjahr nach 5 Millionen Euro nicht überschreiten. Das Startup hat noch keine Gewinner an die Anteilseigner ausgezahlt. Der Geschäftszweck besteht in einer Entwicklung innovativer Produkte oder Dienstleistung und die Gesellschaft wurde nicht durch ein Merger oder die Merger gekündigt. Wenn man jetzt überlegt, was mit den deutschen Startups basiert wäre, wenn diese Regulierung greifen würde, könnte man sagen, für einige wird es wohl passen, mit Ausnahme, dass der Sitz in Italien liegt. Einige sind vielleicht schon älter als vier Jahre, hätten dann aufgrund dieser Regeln keine Finanzierung bekommen. Entscheidend ist hier aber, dass das noch nicht das gesamte Gesetz ist, sondern es fehlt noch ein wesentlicher Teil, der auch erfüllt sein muss. Das ist das, was ich die Wild-Sale auf der Law nenne. Diese innovativen Startups müssen nämlich noch folgende Bedingungen erfüllen. Eine von drei. Entweder müssen 20 % der Herrscherungskosten oder Herrscherungswertes in Forschung und Entwicklung investiert werden. Oder, sehr interessant für die Doktoranden hier, ein Drittel der Mitarbeiter hat eine Promotion abgeschlossen, ist in einem Promotionsprogramm eingeschrieben oder hat mindestens drei Jahre in einer privaten oder öffentlichen Forschungseinrichtung gearbeitet. Und drittens, was auch passieren könnte, dass die Gesellschaft besitzt ein Patent im Bereich Industrie, Biotechnologie oder Halbleiter, was in Bezug zum Geschäftswerk steht. Das war im Prinzip das erste Gesetz, was geschaffen wurde, vielleicht etwas komplexer. Astrodes kamen die Österreicher im Juli 2013. Die haben es etwas knapper gefasst. Die haben einfach gesagt, wir heben den Grenzwert für Emissionen von 100.000 Euro ohne Wertpapierprospekt an auf 250.000 Euro. Das war es. In Frankreich wurde jetzt im Februar 2014 ein neues Gesetz vorgeschlagen. Da soll es so sein, dass zukünftig Startups bis zu 1 Mio. Euro statt 100.000 Euro emittieren dürfen, wiederum ohne Wertpapierprospekt. Aber auch hier ist es an Bedingungen geknüpft, nämlich das Crowdinvesting darf nur erfolgen über Portale, die zuvor akkreditiert wurden durch die Finanzmarktaufsicht in Frankreich. Zudem müssen Retailinvestoren an einem Test teilnehmen und in diesem Test wird ihr Risikoprofil bestimmt und dieses Risikoprofil wird wiederum gematched mit den Investmentmöglichkeiten, die es in Frankreich gibt. Und nur wenn diese Risikoprofile übereinstimmen, dann kann auch das Investment stattfinden. Und die Emittenten müssen sich verpflichten, eine vereinfachte Veröffentlichung vorzunehmen. Die wird wiederum aber nicht von der Wertpapieraufsicht oder soll nicht von der Wertpapieraufsicht geprüft werden. Wie das konkret aussehen soll, wird man dann wahrscheinlich sehen. Im Großbritannien wurde im März 2014 ein Policystatement abgegeben und dort hat man vor allem reguliert, welche Anforderungen die Portale erfüllen müssen. Nämlich die Portale sollen bestimmte systemische Anforderungen erfüllen, so etwas wie faires Marketing betreiben, die müssen getrennte Konten haben für die Investoren und für ihre eigenen Geschäftstätigkeiten. Und Großbritannien hat aber wiederum auch die Investoren reguliert oder die fallen wiederum unter das Gesetz. Wenn Retail-Investoren, also die Crowd investieren möchte, müssen sie entweder eine Finanzberatung erhalten oder sie müssen bestätigen, dass nicht mehr als 10% ihres Netto-Investierbaren Vermögens angelegt wird. Das wird wahrscheinlich eine Art Tick-the-Box-Regel sein, also man wird halt sagen, so ist es, dann investiert man. Ähnlich wird das wahrscheinlich auch in den USA sein. Oder es handelt sich um sophisticated oder high net worth Investors oder corporate finance oder venture capital contacts, die können auch ohne Wertpapieraufsicht investieren. Okay, jetzt kann man sich fragen, warum braucht Deutschland möglicherweise einen Crowdinvesting-Gesetz oder eben auch nicht. Zum einen kann man sich mal anschauen, wie die Finanzierung bei Seedmensch sich entwickelt haben. Und dann sieht man diesen Anstieg und das ist die Zeit der stillen Beteiligung, als Seedmensch immer noch stille Beteiligung hatte. Und da fangen Finanzierung statt, die alle bis zum Deckel von 100.000 Euro aufgrund des deutschen Gesetzes, so zu sagen, möglich waren, aber über 100.000 Euro konnte niemand mit der stillen Beteiligung hinaus investieren. Was zur Folge hatte, dass die startups bestimmten finanziellen Restriktionen unterlegen sind. Die roten Balken, die Sie da sehen, sind startups, die in der zweiten Phase, als das parzearische Darnien eingeführt wurde, sich ein zweites Mal finanziert haben. Also die sind alle auf der linken Seite des blauen Strichs, hatten die ihre erste Finanzierung und haben dann die zweite Finanzierung durchgeführt, nachdem das parzearische Darnien eingeführt wurde. Also die hatten scheinbar auch in der ersten Phase einen höheren Finanzbedarf, konnten das aber nicht realisieren. Das zweite sehen Sie, dass die Emissionsvolumen viel größer geworden sind. Also z.B. Seatmatch jetzt im Juni eine Emission von insgesamt 3 Millionen Euro durchgeführt hat und das auch wiederum ohne Wertpapierprospekt. Gleiches gilt für Kompanisto. Auch die haben irgendwann mal von stillen Beteiligungen auf parzearische Darnien umgeschalten und haben da auch größere Investitionsvolumen durchführen können, was auch hier zeigt, dass irgendwie das Finanzierungsvolumen oder der Finanzierungsbedarf einfach größer war und in der ersten Phase nicht gedeckt werden konnte. Jetzt können Sie sich natürlich fragen, muss man jetzt das Prospekt abschaffen, warum brauchen wir überhaupt ein Kapitalmarktgesetz in Deutschland und vielleicht sollte man sich nochmal bewusst machen, dass es ja einen Grund dafür gibt, warum überhaupt Kapitalmärkte regulieren aus ökonomischer Sicht. Nämlich das Kernzieh des Kapitalmarktrechts ist einfach die Integrität des Marktes zu schützen. Und was heißt das? Als Investor in ein Wertpapier habe ich einfach folgendes Problem, dass wenn ich zum Beispiel ein Auto kaufe, wo ich sehe, da läuft Öl aus dem Motor oder die Scheibe ist zerkratzt, kann ich bei dem Unternehmen einfach nicht direkt sehen, wenn dort Vermögenswerte transferiert wurden und die einfach nicht mehr in dem Unternehmen drinstecken. Und ich habe einfach Informationsasimetrie im Vergleich zu demjenigen, der in dem Unternehmen schon drin investiert ist oder der Eigentümer des Unternehmens ist. Das heißt, wenn ich einmal betrogen wurde am Kapitalmarkt, wäre es mir relativ schwer ein zweites Mal zu investieren, muss ich kann die Qualität dieses Unternehmens nicht beobachten. Deshalb brauche ich gute Informationen und diese Informationen brauchen auch Sanktionen. Denn nur wenn die Sanktionen einhergehen, kann ich auch darauf vertrauen, dass das Unternehmen wahrscheinlich auch diese Vermögenswerte und ähnliches drin hat, die es angibt zu haben. Okay, was bedeutet das? Das bedeutet zum einen, wahrscheinlich sollte man große Emissionen da, wo viele Investoren geschädigt werden und da, wo viel Geld verbrannt wird. Aufgrund von Betrugsverhalten wahrscheinlich sollte man die noch am ehesten Informationspflichten unterlegen. Und deshalb würde ich dafür plädieren, dass auf jeden Fall das parzearische Darlehen, was momentan unter einer Ausnahmeregel fällt und eben nicht reguliert ist unter das, was das Wertpapier-Prospekt anbetrifft, dass auch das, unter das Vermögensanlagegesetz fallen sollte, um die Kapitalmarkt-Integrität zu schützen. Zum anderen muss man auch das, was das Kapitalmarkt-Papier-Prospekt anbetrifft, dass auch das unter das Vermögensanlage-Gesetz zum anderen muss man aber sehen, dass dieses Problem zwei Seiten hat, nämlich das Start-up-Unternehmen häufig in Kapitalbedarf haben, der höher als 100.000 Euro liegt. Und wenn die mehr als 100.000 Euro emittieren möchten, haben sie einfach das Problem, dass im Wertpapier-Prospekt begeben müssen und dieses Wertpapier-Prospekt möglicherweise sehr kostenintensiv ist und die Finanzierung am Kapitalmarkt scheitert und die Start-up-Unternehmen möglicherweise auch keine anderen weil die Familie nicht genügend Geld aufbringen kann, genügend Fools gibt es vielleicht in Deutschland nicht und Freunde hat das Start-up vielleicht auch nicht genug. Okay, das könnte ein Argument dafür sein, warum man den Grenzwert von 100.000 Euro wieder derzeit gilt in Deutschland, vielleicht etwas nach oben schieben sollte, die Prospekt-Liege möglich, bis zu 5 Millionen Euro, vielleicht nicht bis zu 5 Millionen Euro, aber irgendwo in diesem Range. Zudem sollte man überlegen, wenn man den Unternehmen die Möglichkeit gibt, oder mehr Kapitale einzusammeln, ob man dann nicht doch mehr Informationspflichten auferlegt und diese Informationspflichten aber auch so standardisiert, dass ich Start-up-Emission über verschiedene Portale hinweg vergleichen kann. Also ich brauche diese Transparenz und diese Transparenz ist auch deshalb wichtig, weil es bringt nichts, ein großes Wertpapier-Prospekt zu emittieren, was der Investor möglicherweise so nicht liest, der Investor ist den es vielleicht auch nicht so interessiert, sondern der Investor muss das Prospekt auch lesen und der muss es auch lesen können. Was bedeutet das für ein deutsches Crowd-Investing-Gesetz? Ich denke, aufgrund der gegebenen Situation sollte Crowd-Investing in Deutschland auf jeden Fall reformiert werden, also es sollte gesetzlich Anpassung geben. Parziarell ist da möglicherweise mit unter die Definition des Vermögensanlagengesetzes vielleicht auch die Höhe von 100.000 Euro anheben, aber man sollte überlegen, ob man seine Regel möchte, wie in den USA, der Implementierungsregelwerk hat von 500.000 Seiten, das wäre vielleicht zu viel Regulierung. Vielen Dank.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5REtyINpQeQ", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

I'm going to get straight into it because as the title says, I'm going to be reviewing the Helm Compact 3. I have used one of these wild country, but I think mine was the Helm 2 before it was the Compact. And it was one of my favourite tents. I took it out on many, many adventures. I still do have it. I put it through the ringer and a couple of bits went wrong with it. So it's just, it's on the to-do list to get it fixed. Fern was looking for a tent to put in the back of her car and use with the puppies on campsites and things like that. So I thought, let's try the old Compact Helm. Let's get back into the Helm series and see the difference between the Helm Compact and the Helm I used to have and just see how it stands up and have a look inside it. So quite a nostalgic one for me and I'm looking forward to it. So let's get this set up. Oh, we've got to throw it there. So there's the poles and the pegs. That's quite a, that's quite a short stack for the poles, actually. So if there's two of you carrying it, that's no problem to separate and stick that down the side of your pack. They're not too long. And if I remember correctly, which I do, one of the most user-friendly and most simple tents to pitch and put down that I've ever used. It was just a case of, and this looks very similar, if not exactly the same as the Helm II. And it's just two poles, should be colour coordinated. Yep. Where's that? There's the fixer pole. You get a little bit of tubing there to take away in case any of your poles break while you're out camping. You snap these together and it's just a blue and a red and then there should be a sleeve on each side. Here it is with a colour-coded tab to match the poles. And I do blue first because I've always done blue first. Will it be, is it right? I don't know. But I'm going with it. I'm going with blue first. It feels right. The blues are more of a straighter pole. This one has got like a straight bit, then two angles on each side. Cut angle. Again, red bit to red bit through the sleeve. It's all colour coordinated. A little tab with some couple of metal eyelets in it. Unbelievable, Geoff. And then once that's done, you clip on these clips onto the red. See wherever you've got your best views and then move it around so that your doors marry up to the best views. And in which case, I want them to be facing you, you've got your pegs. The inner is attached to the fly, so it all pitches in a wanna in case it's raining, makes it easier to set up in rain without getting wet. And then you've got the guy out points on all of the poles as well. But there'd be no need for me to do that. It has air vents here with a metal rim in to keep it open. That goes up to some mesh on the inside clips to hold it together. Obviously you've got your guy lines. So you've got an air vent on either side. Right, let's have a look inside then. So you've got two zips, one at the bottom, one at the top, so you can pull the one down at the top. If you're inside, just to give you some added ventilation and this material here covers the zip so you can have it open and it's not gonna piss raining. Let's have a look, man. So that's elasticated. These feel quite good. Very spacious. So that's a 55 litre bag. It's mirrored on the other side. So plenty of room to get your kit in and once the doors shut, you've got all that space again. So there we go. The zip feels nice. Look at that. Are you coming in? I'll go first. Oh, that is spacious, man. That is a palace. Come in. It's warm. Come in. It is warm like. I can stand you up there, man. It's still unbelievable, really, Geoff. There is bucket loads of space. Considering the weight of this tent, it's not that much more than a two-maner. And that space, I mean, I would take this on my own just for them times where you're just pitching up and you're going to be in your tent for a couple of days. This is perfect. Yeah, it's symmetrical on both sides. So plenty of room for your bags. It's got an attachment loop up the top for your lanterns. It's got two large mesh pockets at opposite ends of the tent and at the side. So plenty of storage space. There is ample room in here. Acres of space, man. When you zip open the inner, you can just, instead of tying it back, you just chuck it in the pocket at the side. Perfect. Who is it for? Well, it's for wild campers. If you've got two of you, when I was a solo camper, I would use a two-man tent and that would give me all the room that I needed. But now I'm going camping with my partner along. We've got a dog. A two-man tent is just a bit of a squeeze. So this is perfect for genuine two-man hiking. You could divvy it up. One of you can carry the poles, the pegs. The other one can carry the tent itself. Or even just on your own. If you're a unit and you like your space and you're just going for one or two days, perfect. They also do, in the Helm compact range, they do a compact one and a compact two. This is the compact three. So whatever size you want, there you go. And one of the main things is how easy it is to set up and how easy it is to put back down again. There's a lot to be said for that after you've been camping all night and you might be raining outside or whatever and you just want to chuck all your stuff in and you just want to get it packed up and be on your way and this is the perfect tent for that. I'm buzzing to have another Helm back in the family. Fern just got this for her car camping. She's off away with friends soon. So she got this for a car camping tent and I thought, before you go, I want my doing a quick review of it and having a look just to jog me memory of the old Helm and it's lost none of its charm. I absolutely love this tent. So if you fancy one of these or if you want a Helm one or two, which I fully recommend, then you can take advantage of my discount code that'll get you, I think it's 20% off any of these tents from Terranova. Just use this code at checkout. I'll leave a link below for you. If you want, but I mean, if you were shopping for a tent and you liked the Helms, which I do fully recommend, I'll interject this video with some of the old footage of my Helm out in action. I fully love it. And if you were gonna get yourself a Helm, which I would, then you might as well get 20% off and I'll leave a link to their website below. This is just my first opinion. I'm just having a look at it. I've not kept in it yet, but I know tents and I know that is a good tent and I would like to keep in it. Tempted to have a look at the compact, the Helm compact one and two now. Wonderful tents, wonderful tents. Right, that was just a quick one. I'll be back soon with some more reviews or hiking trips or whatever it is. But for now, take care of yourselves and I'll see you soon. Goodbye. Gotta come back out now. Here I go. See ya.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rRuE5WQfME", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Wait a second. Let me do the announcement. Sorry. I know you're really excited about the session. We are all very excited about the short talk session. So hello, everyone. Welcome back. Thank you so much for staying with us so late. And I also want to thank PCC for preparing such a wonderful meal. It was delicious. So now we will have the lightning talk session. Of course, starting with Ashlyn from Mount Sinai. But before we go on, I just want to tell each speaker you have, if you can finish your talk within six minutes, you will be allowed for one quick question. If you go over, then there won't be questions allowed. And if you go over seven minutes, I think the DCC will cut off your mic. I think that's what they threatened to do. So the risk is you are on your side, right? So, yeah, so our first speaker is again Ashlyn Dinser from Mount Sinai. She's going to talk about decoding brain epigenome with the Broad H3K4 Traumatician. Thanks. Is the mic on? I haven't started my clock, so you're fine. Hello. So my name is Ashlyn Dinser. I just recently finished my PhD in Dr. Sharon McBarion's lab. And right now I'm working as a postdoc in Dr. Eric Schatz' lab. And today I will be talking about my research project entitled Neural Epigenome Mapping in Hatan Disease Profound Tool Cortex. This is the outline for my presentation. First, I would like to give a little introduction. Then I will go over my hypothesis and specifics. Finally, I will discuss my results. As you know, in the last 10 years, GWAS studies have found that the genetic architectures of the most human complex diseases have a predominant influence of the common variation. And many of these common disease risk variants are enriched in the regulatory regions of the human genome. And ENCODE wrote, may GTX projects have found that the active regulatory regions and non-coding transcripts are often cell-pan tissue-specific. And most of these studies were performed using human cancer lines and or normal cells from the non-brain tissues. In my context, I'm working on the human brain. And the brain has several cell types. Many of them are still not understood. And characterizing brain epigenome is challenging not only about the great diversity, the number of histone modification, DNA methylation, and chromatin regulator proteins, but also about brain cellular heterogeneity which may bias the cell-type-specific epigenetic patterns influencing the finding in psychiatric epigenetic studies. And therefore, it's really important to construct and map neural epigenome from the brain which will complement existing mapping approaches on blood tissues, ultimately leading to deeper understanding of neurons' identity and functional differences as well as providing a possible window into brain development and diseases. And the focus of my slides today is the one of the particular histone mark, histone-3K-4-3-metallation, which is a well-established promoter mark. And previously, our lab showed histone-3K-4-3-metallation alteration in autism post-mortem brains. And we observed dynamically-regulated 3-metallation peaks during the lifespan in a collaboration with the shipping bank. And recent whole exome sequencing studies in 4,000 autism individuals find the mutation in the genes-encoiding proteins involving the synaptic function and, most importantly, chromatin regulation. And unexpected, the psychiatric genetics consortium showed that histone-3K-4-metallation is emerging as a central pathway in the brain development and function. And as you see in this slide, many of the mutations in the histone-3K-4-3-metallation regulation are linked to some of the neurodevelopmental disorders like, such as schizophrenia and intellectual disability. And I'm investigating a broad histone-3K-4-3-metallation domains in profrontal cortex by performing genome-wide mapping of histone-3K-4-3-metallation in neural and non-neural nuclei from the control and disease postmortem brain. Our hypothesis is the epigenetic dice regulation at non-coding cis-regulator regions may play a key role in cell identity in health and disease states. And the technique used for the cell type specifically, we used the effect of fluorescence-activated cell sorting on a fresh frozen postmortem tissue. And we dissect for the profrontal cortex and use the neon antibody. And then this sort of neural nuclei was subject to the micro-coconuclearized digestion. And then to get the micro-nucleosomal DNA and the chip-60 histone-3K-4-3-metallation. And I investigated my hypothesis in three specific aims. In the first specific aim, we identified the top 5% broadest peaks of the cortical neurons that were longer than the 95% of all histone-3K-4-metallation. And the second specific aim, we validated these neuron-specific broadest domains computationally using the glial and blood cell types. And then we compared using the same pipeline and the same chip-sick experiments on the chimpanzee, russus macaque, and the mouse. I forgot to put the mouse, right? So, and then we integrated with the other arneistic gene expression profiles from the especially white matter and gray matter of the profrontal cortex. And this is, here's my pipeline developed for the chip-sick arneistic and integrated with the Bayesian network. But unfortunately, I don't have time to go to specifically. I will discuss my results. This is the first quality control and validation of the chip-sick experiments. We compiled the histone-3K-4 epigenetic landscape pattern for the ref-sick annotated genes across all samples and computed the pairwise-spearman correlations. And as you see here, across these different cell types, the interest cell type correlation were systematically higher than the inter-cell type correlation and each cell type clustering together in an unsupervised fashion. And here, today, I will just show our neuron-specific, which not show up in the non-urnal cell types in the human brain and the blood cell types. As you see, all of them, mostly, they are associated with the promoter transcription star site. But you can see the green intergenic region. So we can use this broto-cystone-3K-4 methylation peaks as a memory integrated with the arneistic data. This might be the novel transcripts. So this can be also used as an important signature to identify the novel transcripts. And here in the B, I'm showing that the neural cell type, non-urnal, and blood. As you see, the signature is mostly energy in the neural cell type, not show up in the blood. And the C, we are showing that most of the genes are really permanent role in this neuropsychiatric diseases. And this is a summary of two, when I say broto-cystone-3K-4 methylation peaks. As you see, it's one of the genes. This is the first track, is the arneistic data from the brain. But we are dissociated for the gray matter and white matter. And the orange track is the gray matter, which usually enrich with the neurons. And the white matter is mostly contained in the astrocyte glyols. And this, showing that the correlation with the broto-purple neuron-specific broto-cystone-3K-4 has higher expression in the gray matter. And they are mostly enriched in the synaptic transmission gene categories. And the four orange, another example, is the glial sac-stann. So pink, broadest domains, associated with the sac-stann. And they are mostly expressed in the white matter. And they enrich for the myelination and axon-n-shootment. And this is another example for showing that this might be used as a biomarker because they were enriched in all three cell types. Then we compare the, we look all broadest, 500 broadest, okay. So here we check for the neural broadest peaks and looking for the gray cortical matter. And then we also did for the same analysis for the white matter. Here, the next question we were asking is, this is, broadest domains are really important for the brain development. We should observe these broadest domains in the other acro-spaces, like chimpanzee, resus macaque, and mouse. And we did the same, applied the same pipeline. And we identified 131 regions, the conserved. And they are mostly associated with dopamine signaling. And the, lately, we constructed Bayesian network. And we want to see that the, investigated the topological organization of the broadest domains. And we see that the 161 genes was mostly enriched and peripheral cortic neurons and can reach other genes in the network more efficiently. And this is conclusion. So we can use these broadest domains as the important signatures for the brain development and therapeutic, maybe in the future, for the therapeutic applications. Cool, thanks. So our next speaker is Stephen Floor from UC Berkeley. He's going to talk about the role of transcript-specific translation in human neuronal differentiation.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Rv-sEgaE0M", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }
UC_TneqvSfh-KsIyZMlJjVsQ	Cuba, Nepal, Africa, Latin America: Ukraine exposes foreign mercenaries fighting for Russia	#Kanal13 #likekanal13 #subscribekanal13 #warinukraine https://www.youtube.com/user/kanal13az?sub_confirmation=1 - SUBSCRIBE TO US! The Russian mobilization resource is depleting, so the aggressor country is increasingly recruiting foreigners for the war against Ukraine. In Ukrainian captivity, there are representatives from Cuba, Nepal, African countries, and Latin America, according to a statement from a representative of the Coordinating Headquarters for the Treatment of Prisoners of War Petro Yatsenko. According to Yatsenko, after significant losses, fewer and fewer Russians are willing to serve under contract, including among the prisoners. Therefore, Russia has intensified recruitment among foreigners from low-income countries. At the Media Center Ukraine, a briefing was held with the participation of captured mercenaries who shared their stories of how they ended up on the front lines. "They were thrown in like cannon fodder because they weren't trained. Some of them were deceived, meaning they were promised one thing, but in reality, it turned out to be completely different," Yatsenko said. He noted that these individuals could be prosecuted in Ukraine for mercenary activities because it is illegal. However, there have been no such trials yet, so foreigners remain in custody as prisoners of war. At the same time, Russia does not want to include these citizens in exchange lists because they are not needed. Representatives of the coordination headquarters have called on the governments of foreign countries to take more effective measures "to prevent their citizens from being deceived by Russian recruiters, to preserve their health, and to prevent their deaths." Earlier, Reuters reported that India had appealed to Russia for the early release of some of its citizens working in the Russian army in "support jobs." India's Ministry of External Affairs made the statement after a local newspaper reported that last year, around 100 Indians were hired on contracts for at least one year. On March 1, the National Resistance Center reported that locals in the temporarily occupied territory observed the arrival of more Kremlin mercenaries.

The Russian mobilization resource is depleting, so the aggressor country is increasingly recruiting foreigners for the war against Ukraine. In Ukrainian captivity, there are representatives from Cuba, Nepal, African countries, and Latin America, according to a statement from a representative of the coordinating headquarters for the treatment of prisoners of war, Petro Yatsenko. According to Yatsenko, after significant losses, fewer and fewer Russians are willing to serve under contract, including among the prisoners. Therefore, Russia has intensified recruitment among foreigners from low-income countries. At the media center Ukraine, a briefing was held with the participation of captured mercenaries who shared their stories of how they ended up on the front lines. They were thrown in like cannon fodder because they weren't trained. Some of them were deceived, meaning they were promised one thing, but in reality, it turned out to be completely different. Yatsenko said he noted that these individuals could be prosecuted in Ukraine for mercenary activities because it is illegal. However, there have been no such trials yet, so foreigners remain in custody as prisoners of war. At the same time, Russia does not want to include these citizens in exchange lists because they are not needed. Representatives of the coordination headquarters have called on the government of foreign countries to take more effective measures to prevent their citizens from being deceived by Russian recruiters to preserve their health and to prevent their deaths. Earlier Reuters reported that India had appealed to Russia for the early release of some of its citizens working in the Russian army in support jobs. India's Ministry of External Affairs made the statement after a local newspaper reported that last year around 100 Indians were hired on contracts for at least one year. On March 1, the National Resistance Center reported that locals in the temporarily occupied territory observed the arrival of more Kremlin mercenaries, specifically invaders were bringing in fighters from Cuba and Nepal. In the morning of March 14, the Gravoroy district of the Belgorod region of Russia opened fire from the territory of Ukraine. The Russian press reported on this. It is said that one of the shells fell into the forensic examination building. The population was warned to go to shelters. The governor of Belgorod region, Gatislav Gladkov, said that one person was injured as a result of the shooting. He also said that three cars were damaged and several houses were damaged. A warning was issued about the missile safety in the Belgorod area. The IT should be noted that on March 13, the Free Russian Legion, the Russian Volunteer Corps, and the Siberian Battalion, which are part of the Ukrainian army, warned that they would again enter the territory of Belgorod in course can conduct an operation. They demanded the provincial administration to evacuate the local population.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5R98mt-Y_7I", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Get over to that post I guess and make sure you get your nominations in because it will be the last week of the Road to Ranked Roulette series before we move into more serious content after that so it's going to be very exciting hopefully moving into the new 2020 season rules pending they get released this weekend and of course this weekend is World Championships it will be starting today so very exciting for the the whole of the community and I wish everyone watching a great event I wish everyone over there just an even better event I hope you all have a really nice time over in Washington DC last time I was there it's a really nice one for myself I'm sad that I couldn't be there this year but I got seventh in the world that year so that was pretty nice but haven't been able to replicate it since but you know 2020 is the season to be jolly that's what I've heard anyway we'll be trying anyway next season obviously I won't be able to commit to as many events as I would like to in a really competitive season but I will be going out all guns blazing to the events I can and I'm really looking forward to it already so we've got a lot of dates of course and I'm just rabbiting on so anyway getting back to this series this is the team this has been the best team so far we've had on the road to running through let series it's been amazing I haven't activated any buttons I'm not going to start activating buttons today we're seven two at the moment with the team let's see how we can finish up today it would be amazing to go nine two I'm not holding my breath because we peg our hopes on these results and it doesn't quite happen sometimes so we're just going to go into the games and see what happens and just have some fun with the team and give it a really good send off hopefully and I hope you all have enjoyed this week on the channel it's been really good and I'm really looking forward to end up with something really fun next week so make sure like I say get over there nominate those Pokemon and we'll have a really great last week and this is the bar remember we've set the bar now we've got to do better than this next week it's going to be hard but without further ado let's get into it today music is on we're looking good and as always if you enjoy this sort of content my friends please remember to drop a like on the video do subscribe to the channel for more pokemon content which I can guarantee you there will be a boatload of in the future we're sitting on a rating of 1512 which you can see right here which because we had a little bit of a loss yesterday we'll go with max in arch we never have this track so change it up a bit and do leave your comments down below let me know what your favorite match has been from this week our favorite moment from a match this week I've got some gems I think Porygon Z has been incredible every time every grad on we faced I think it's knocked out so big props to Porygon Z the salamence has performed well and I know Johnny has said that we can take the reins off it but I thought now we're not going to change it we're going to keep it as it was it was stated at the start we're going to go all the way with it and see what we can do but we got one as our first point of the day so let's hop over into team preview and see what we're going up against have we played one I just I see an Umbrian and I'm like have we played him but probably not but we might have done such maybe a rematch but we've got salamence Tapulele Duskmen across my the Umbrian Kangaskorn and the Groudon so we've got the jewel mega on the team between the salamence and the mega and it's probably depending on what my opponent faces obviously and then you've got the Tapulele that supports that Dawnwing's Duskmen across my sorry and the Ultra and across my when it does ultra burst the Umbrian there nice snarl support user sometimes has snatch I'm sure I was worried about that the last time we played it and then the Primal Groudon to make up the restricted core between that and Ultra and Duskmen across my so what are we gonna do here what are we gonna do I think salamence is pretty good again we have to be a bit careful about the Tapulele they don't have a lot to they do have they've got ways to hit the shinninger so maybe shinninger is not the way for us here mercurial is just generally good again isn't it because mercurial just causes all sorts of havoc have to watch out for that tapulele but I think covering it with the sogaleo is not a bad idea we can get a tailwind up 100% so we've got a Groudon we'll bring Porygon Z for sure and I think salamence might be a nice pick as our last one we could go Zekrom but salamence feels like it's probably a little bit better so good luck to one and hopefully we can pull out a victory to kick us off today I'm feeling good about it it's so nice actually coming into this series and we're sitting down to record again you think the pressure's on we're doing well this week let's not mess it up and I haven't had that for a long time it's always like oh man it's been going so bad this week please give us a victory give us a break but no it's been it's been amazing this week's been great so I can't complain at all and we're going to see the tapulele and the dusk me and the cross mark come out so we can guarantee our tailwind up for sure it might mean sacrificing our little Mercro um do we stay in the Sougaleo that's the problem um hmm if we lose Sougaleo what have we got to deal with the I mean the Ultranocrosm is not too bad if we get targeted down in a Sougaleo slot then it means Mercro is not really taking any damage so it's not the worst thing in the world I go for a sensual strike we haven't got protect on Sougaleo so um it's just one of those things we can't protect this turn it would be nice to I think here we go and we should survive just uh an earth power so I think to get rid of the Sougaleo you really have to kind of commit and double into that slot to get rid of it there's a little Mercro going for his tailwind here and we're going to see Mooblast so Sougaleo save this turn um at least we should take this oh just about three HP Mercro is the tank of all tanks earth power coming out we should survive this just out of very range we'll be able to get rid of that Lele and we're in a nice position this next turn where we can go for the foul place and she'll strike into that Ultranocrosm or we can double into whatever comes in if it is the Groudon though it makes me a little bit annoyed because I'm like we need Horygan Z out we need PZ on the field right now to uh to deal with it um and with that in mind it might be better to just double into the Ultranocrosm maybe although if you bring in if you do bring in the Groudon you've got to think yeah we'll probably better off I mean I'm quite happy at this point losing both I think the one thing that gives Salamence a like a big headache is the the Tapulele um and maybe an earthquake and a foul play into the Ultranocrosm and we'll do the job the problem is always going to be if the Ultranocrosm protects in the Groudon just goes for a precipice blade um but then Mercro comes out it's got three doesn't it so swings and roundabouts let's go for that earthquake we'll get damage onto the Groudon the Crosmer as well and maybe an earthquake plus foul play is enough to get it I don't know you've got to think like it does have no no protect coming out so let's see what the damage is like doesn't affect Mercro because we are a little flying type I mean the damage isn't great is it it's not too bad foul play let's see come on Mercro let's pick up the knockout if we can yes the bird the bird is back the bird is so good I literally love Mercro it's one of my favorite Pokemon I think I like of all time after this series it's so cool just a badass it's got like a hat on it's a bird with a hat come on we'll get better than that so we lose so go go out but it does open the door for ah easy to come in and here we go the madman himself salamence ooh tasty tasty tasty right we go for the z move into I think we'll be fine we need to like I just worry about the Groudon protecting here that's what I worry about this is the last turn the tailwind um I don't really want to lose Mercro because we do get our tailwind I mean one one thing we could potentially do is just foul play the salamence uh it potentially goes for let's go for the z move into the Groudon I mean let's go for the turkey I just worry about the Groudon protecting here so salamence gonna mega evolve okay here we go come on let's have a triple triple peasy yes come on peasy like the shout the call for worlds and I'm saying it now if you if you're worried about Groudon going into worlds it's a morn of world championships if you need anything there's no more better evidence than this week on the channel every time this little peasy has come up against the Groudon it's kicked its butt it's like literally literally not even giving it a chance to get an attack off it's fine it's like it's gone it's done Mercro coming out get that nice foul play let's see hyper voice makes sense but um it's all right because we've got Portagon Z and we've got salamence in the back Mercro man putting in the work such a beast we've got our own salamence in now we've got giga impact we've got tailwind we've got ice beam as well we can just double into the the opposing men's um just yeah we'll go giga impact giga impact oh did we go hyper beam we've not really had much we've got both double hyper beam out on the field let's go I'm not gonna click hyper beam with Portagon Z we've got a bit more ice beam a bit more reliable but we're gonna see the full fit so we do pull out a victory for our first one today I'm happy now I'm happy eight two we are this week eight two can we finish nine two that is gonna be the big question it's uh it's been I can't believe it I can't believe it I'm saying it I really can't um it's been really good so yeah I'm just gonna we're just gonna go into the next one not gonna get too excited about it all I'm I'm like literally I'm like screaming inside with excitement I'm like literally I love this series so much you know there is I think the thing is with it let's go alternate cross my version two we're sitting on a rate in 1532 those dizzy heights we've never hit before um yeah I think because so many weeks it's such a struggle so when we have a week like this and I kind of knew that we'd get a team eventually that would really click and it would work and we'd have a really smooth run but I think because of how grindy it was in some of those earlier weeks and previous weeks where we're just getting absolutely bopped every game and then you come across this gem of a week and it just makes it and I think that's what it does it just makes it even better than it would be normally like normally if we're in a competitive series and we're playing a serious team we're playing like this we're getting these kind of results it's fine it's normal and we're not really making anything of it but when you're struggling so much all of the time and then you come across like a little streak like this you feel on top of the world and you feel like yeah ash catch him eat your heart out this is the this is a real anime where it is here we go it's going to take a little bit longer to find our next opponent but I'm going to cut it right here and we'll be right just like that you're gonna do that to us come on so rude rude okay so we've got an ex-opponent let's hop straight into team preview okay so we've got a bit of psychic spam coming from the opponent and this next team we've got stack attacker tapu lele and mandibus a groudon incinero and a mutu so we're probably looking at mega mutu x with the tapu lele there scoff tapu lele I would imagine um stack attacker gonna give the team some tail rare trick room support for that groudon and a trick room kind of counter as well the mandibus offers tailwind support you gotta imagine it's probably psychic seed on this team although you can't count on that it would make a lot of sense though um with that tailwind support there and then the incinero there with this fake out support which does conflict a little bit with the psychic terrain if that does come out but again mercro does have to be a bit careful around the stack attacker of course but other than that I think it can do its role we'll definitely get a tailwind off and we've got nice taunt options here to shut some setup down um so we'll go mercro do we go so go leo again I feel like I want to just go the same for again you know to be honest and bring the the ments in the back but maybe not the ments maybe no we do need the ments for the groudon just in case things go a little bit pear shaped um uh it's just zekrom might be better I'm gonna actually throw zekrom in in the last slot just because it gives us a better answer against the mandibus we've got earth power as well for the stack attacker for the groudon for the incinero so it kind of it can do a decent job it's just that flying type bonus that salamence gives us that we'll be missing a little bit we just gotta make sure that poigonsi deals with this groudon like we know it can yeah okay so we're gonna lead off again with our mercro and so go leo I'm gonna say stacks come out with tabulele perfect um now what would we do here do we want to go for a tailwind do we want to go for a torn do we want to go for a superpower into the stack attacker now we could go superpower into stack attacker I worry about the stack attacker being sash though that would be my my only worry I think um I do want a tailwind for sure uh so we'll go for that we'll go for a superpower because it's more likely the stack attacker in my opinion to have the shukaberry than the chocoberry um and the only other issue would be the sash but we're gonna go for it no no no no why didn't they consider ally switch we've done that thing what we always love to do to our opponents look at that damage pathetic okay oh it's just going for the rock slide so we're not getting actually we're not getting caught out that's good but mercro man mercro mercro you did well you did well there's a beast boost we don't like to see those defense okay um it's time for pz to hit the come in ah this is really really not great because um it's all the mind games now isn't it it is the mind games do we catch my opponent out could go hyper beam into the lele and go for the superpower again into the stack attacker it's just the defense is so high now that's the thing I just don't know if we'll be able to get it with the superpower um we might be better off doubling into it with a nice beam and a superpower we could go earthquake that's the other option but I think at this point we need to try and get as much damage as possible onto it lele protects okay hopefully this will be enough right there's the ice beam come on just do I don't know if it's going to be enough after the defense boost so go to the rest crit there we go get that crit return yes okay I'm pretty sure we might not have actually picked up the knockout there now we want the ground on to come in we still got to worry about the the ally switch as well um I guess one thing we could potentially do I like are you worried about ally switching now or would you prefer your lele to um I don't know because we could precipice blades and just go for the z the z hyper boys how many turns of tailwind do we got left because does it make sense for them to protect now no makes sense for them to protect on the next turn really go for the breakneck blitz now do we go right into that slot I could just be a bit more wary and go for a wide guard here I think that's what I'll do I think I'll go for the the z move wide guard just in case we see an ally switch might be a waste of a turn we're not gonna see it and we're gonna take down the ground on four in a row I'm telling you I'm telling you all the ultimate ground on the ultimate ground on killer it is look at this four times this week this thing has been incredible MVP of the whole series I'm gonna I'm just gonna say it now MVP of the whole series bye bye ground on see you later sayonara okay so oh no we're gonna lose pz no okay depends what the last pokemon is as well because our tailwind is pittering out pittering out if it's me too which I presume it is this might be difficult our attack isn't as good as it potentially could be with sogalail and then zekrom in the back it would have been better to have potentially would have been better to have salamence here if it is me too it's mandibus called it called it okay that's good um but we need to be careful against mandibus I don't think the mandibus has protect so we can I think doubling into it here is definitely our best option um since your strike fusion bolt should be enough to get it it's fine it's fine because as long as we get the lele and zekrom still alive and kicking we'll be able to get the mandibus with zekrom it's fine it's the if we lost sogalail here and a zekrom was left against that lele that's when it would be bad but it looks like yeah gonna be enough um the mandibus what are you doing now tailwind okay I mean I don't mind this at all because it's not really gonna help the mandibus add too much it's kind of knackered against zekrom to be fair like big bad zekrom gonna steal the show end up this week nine and two we haven't won yet of course something drastic could happen where you going and it's kind of paying off being more specially built as well now with the zekrom like a hundred percent because like if we've been physically that would have done at least 50 percent that does a lot of damage since steel strike I don't know if we're gonna pick up the knockout here after the the drops that we've had be surprised if we do but you never know nah and there's the berry okay but I think we'll be we'll be fine yeah weirdness disappears and I don't think mandibus as good as mandibus is can take on these two restricted pokemon by itself so I'm pleased now that we did pick the zekrom the last minute change has definitely paid off here for us oh great so we do get the berry activated get all that nice health back just guaranteeing that we'll be able to beat this this mandibus once the tailwind pit is out we'll probably not take it down this turn oh we will because zekrom's like nope let's do it so my friends nine and two nine two we finished this week that is incredible that is incredible I mean we wanted to give the team a great send off I don't know how else we could have done that like in any better style it's been amazing this has been the best week we've ever had on the rods rank roulette series and like I say it's setting the bar now for us for other weeks this is what we need to beat and it's going to be a tall order it's going to be really tall order the team's been incredible there's always a team is down in the description below there's a raw paste of poker paste immortalize it in your minds put it frame it up on your wall I'm going to do it I might actually do it I might do it I don't know should get a t-shirt made with it on the team the team the mvp mvp and polygons on the back there just beating down on groudons just loads of groudons beneath it anyway we're going off on a tangent you guys need to get yourselves away because the world championships will be starting very soon if you are sitting around watching it today I hope you enjoy the event if you are at the event I hope you have an amazing weekend we'll be back on Monday make sure to get your

UCGLEYuFd4l4sPOXxk8bNh9w	World War Cthulhu	30-second Sci-Fi Book Review #90 See all of my reviews here - http://30secondscifi.tumblr.com	[ "Cthulhu (Fictional Character)", "war stories", "alternate history", "Lovecraft", "30secondSciFi", "book review", "Trojan War" ]	2015-01-30T05:28:50	2024-04-23T14:37:13	124	5rUXmBJzsPU	This was a Kickstarter project from last year put on by Dark Region's Press. It's a collection of all original stories set in the Lovecraftian mythology. Every story being about war in one way or another, and they are surprisingly good. I've read most of the book now, and I have not yet run into a story that I actually disliked, although some are better than others. The first few are tremendous. I would have expected everything to be like weird World War II stories, but instead I'm seeing real variety here. Vietnam, the American Revolution. I can tell you all these centuries we have completely misunderstood the Trojan War. Some of you may remember a while back when I acquired this book. You can get it yourselves directly from Dark Region's Press at DarkRegions.com. They've just started a new Kickstarter with stories by all women writers, and it looks like it's going to be a success just like this one. You may also remember that I was not impressed with the cover art, nor was I all that impressed with the interior art. I made the complaint then, and I'll complain again about the credit for the artist. There are two artists here, a cover artist and then one other artist who provided all of the interior art, and they are not credited on the cover, nor are they credited on the back of the book, nor are they credited on the frontispiece or on the table of contents. I had to look them up in the copyrights, which is not good. You need to credit your artists. You guys at Dark Region's Press, please correct that for your next volume. Otherwise, it's a book that I recommend.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rUXmBJzsPU", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Why? When formless dimensions of existence take to a form, the geometry of that form determines how that particular form is going to function. I only wish that every one of you actually see what's happening here. If you don't see things beyond physical nature, largely spiritual process will be just talking spirituality. Unless you really taste something, spiritual process will be an entertaining factor in one's life, will not become the mainstay. So making spiritual process the mainstay of one's life means that you have understood that that source of life cannot be a sidetrack. But I want you to see something else, something beyond physical nature. If this has to happen, I want you all focused. It should feel like one breath, one being. Then everything that's in my experience will become yours. I want this to happen. I want you to make up your mind that you want it to happen. This is a medium. This is a seed. This is a possibility which will move you from a compulsive state of logic to the magic of life. My blessing is, let something that you cannot understand, that you cannot grasp, that you cannot contain within yourself, let it happen to you. May you be overwhelmed by life. May you be overwhelmed by this tremendous phenomena that is creation and creator at the same time.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Rr13rAlifM", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

It's the Member from Prince Edward Haddington. Thank you, Speaker. We have a responsibility to represent at-risk persons in our ridings, and that includes people who are socially or economically disadvantaged and are at risk of becoming victims of human trafficking. For that reason, we must support Victim Services agencies in Toronto. This government has distributed anti-human trafficking support funds, but these funds do not correlate with what's necessary to support victims in my riding. The Victim Services of Hastings Prince Edward Haddington offers 24-hour-a-day short-term crisis support, and in the past six months, Victim Services helped 13 victims of human trafficking leave the sex trade and pursue their education. When Victim Services applied for the anti-human trafficking support fund, they were denied, quote, based upon a comprehensive assessment formula. However, they were given $18,000 by the Attorney General for staffing this year. These victims require emergency and long-term services, which include intensive care management, housing, food, medical, and counseling. This can't be quantified by $65.38 per victim, which is the current allotment in my riding. On the other hand, victims in Kingston Fraud and Acke received $472.12 per victim. Why is the funding formula inconsistent? Does the government think victims in my constituency are worth less? My region does not have a human trafficking centre and lacks the resources to place victims in group homes. What's the alternative, that we punish the victims of human trafficking by placing them in offender housing? We can do better. We have to do better. Thank you. Further members from Hamilton Mountain. Thank you, Speaker. There is hardly a day that goes by in my office on Hamilton Mountain when I don't hear from a woman who is made to feel absolutely powerless when faced with our court system. These women might be trying to get financial support from their estranged father of their children. They might be caught up in a custody dispute or trying to make their case before a judge when dealing with the children's aid society. But the problem, Speaker, is they are invariably outgunned by the highly paid lawyers in the court setting. In the vast majority of cases they can't afford a lawyer and they can't get legal aid. Their only option is to represent themselves. Then they find out just what an impossible task that is. Already distraught by their situation, in addition to the stress and the upheaval it has caused, they now have to juggle part-time jobs to be able to struggle to get their kids looked after. They've done their homework, but they're terrified of what comes ahead. The intimidating atmosphere of a courtroom, the adversarial nature of the setting, and the knowledge that they will be facing people who do this every day of their lives. But they have no choice. In this situation, what hope is there for justice to be served? Precious little. And it happens in courtrooms all across Ontario every single day. Women and children pay the price, and it has to change. Mr Speaker, last night hundreds of people gathered in Kingston's market square to say goodbye to a musician, an activist whose words and actions have touched millions. Just over a year ago, 25,000 people gathered in that same square to watch the tragically hips last concert on the big screen. It was a magical night. And one that united Canadians from coast to coast. The sorrow that has accompanied Gord's passing has been equally widespread. And although he was suffering from terminal brain cancer, he continued to champion the causes he believed in and most significantly truth and reconciliation. Because of that work, the Assembly of First Nations aptly gave him an honorary name that translates to Man Who Walks Among the Stars. He is doing that now. Earlier this year, we laid a commemorative plaque in Kingston's market square to mark the tragically hips historic concert. The plaque quotes one of their best love songs with the lyric, everyone was in it from miles around. And we were indeed. Gord had a gift for connecting with people and for making everyone feel like we were a part of something greater than ourselves. To Gord, if you are looking down upon us right now, we know you will be pulled in a million directions in this very moment. Thank you. Thank you for enchanting the hearts and minds of millions. Our nation is culturally richer and deeper for Gord's talent, his selfless determination and will to right wrongs and make this world a better place. Rest in peace. Thank you. Further member statements? The member from Whitby Oshawa. Thank you, Speaker. And Whitby Town Council has approved a partnership with the Durham District School Board, which establishes a new community hub in Henry Street High School. And this hub speaker will serve as a youth room, providing activities for youth in South Whitby. Currently, there are two other youth rooms in Whitby, the McKinney Center near the center of the town and the Berkeley Community Center and Library near the northern boundary of my writing. The center speaker a part of Whitby's recreation and leisure services youth strategy and offers several programs free of charge to youth age 12 to 18. Programs like cooking classes, studying physical activities and arts and crafts. This new youth room speaker at Henry Street High School is both cost effective, provides youth in South Whitby easily accessible, extracurricular activities to possibly promote their overall development and opportunity to succeed. I extend my congratulations to Whitby Town Council for their leadership once again in providing this needed hub for youth in our community. Thank you, Speaker. Thank you very much, Speaker. It's harvest season in Essex County and all across Ontario. This is the time of year when many of our constituents are packing up the kids, heading off to local orchards for apple picking or the local pumpkin patch in search of the perfect jack-o-lantern. Farms from Maidstone to Ruthven from Stony Point to River Canard are busy harvesting and moving crops to market. The autumn marks the culmination of a year's worth of hard work and investment and risk taken by thousands of farm families in Essex County and represents a vital piece to both the economic and cultural underpinning of what I know to be the greatest place on earth to live, work and to raise a family. How important is Essex agriculture locally for our province speaker? Well Essex County farms generate $1.2 billion GDP each year. They top southwestern Ontario when it comes to employment with 18,487 full-time equivalents in the sector and Essex also raises the largest tax revenue from all three levels of government, a total of $369 million each year when compared to other subregions of the southwest. While these numbers represent the success of more than a century of farming tradition, they also represent an opportunity for the future. The sector is literally growing and Essex is leading the way. On behalf of Ontario New Democrats I want to extend my sincere thanks to all of Ontario's farm families and wish them a safe and successful harvest and that you find the time to celebrate yourselves, your accomplishments, your efforts, your hard work with friends, family and loved ones once this very busy time of year has passed. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you Mr. Speaker. Thank you Mr. Speaker. On October 10th, 2017, International Mental Health Day was posted. I had the privilege of attending the first mental health forum in the writing of Ajax that day. The event was organized by Caryon Fen and the Caryon Fen Foundation in partnership with the Ajax library. They are in the east gallery today. The president of Caryon Fen is Caryon and of course it was my pleasure to introduce her this morning while they are visiting Queens Park. She is with her Rogers TV producer Holga Lambert and the forum in Ajax provided an opportunity for open and honest discussion about mental health with 16 mental health related organizations in attendance. Additionally, a panel of experts of mental health including health leaders from Lake Ridge Health and Ontario Shores were present to answer questions as were some of us elected people, my colleague across the floor and myself. However, our friend Whitby M.P. Serena Cesar Chavanaz was one of six speakers of the event and I have to tell you she knows depression firsthand and was courageous enough to go public with her struggles. 20% of Canadians will personally experience a mental illness in their lifetime and mental illness affects people of all ages, education and income and culture while also impacting their families, friends and neighbors. And a new TV show is about to hit. Durham Health 180 on Rogers TV hosted by my constituent Caryon Fenning. She will provide a climate for people to discuss mental health issues as well as other issues throughout and I appreciate the time Mr. Speaker and my watch is right in line with your assertion. You're now 10 seconds over. Further member statements? The member from Dufford, Caledon. Thank you Speaker. This weekend there's a great event happening at the Alton Mills Art Center, the eighth annual empty bowls. Empty bowls actually began in Michigan in 1990. First you choose your favorite locally crafted pottery bowl and then you fill it with delicious soup from local restaurants. In the end the proceeds go to the Orangeville Food Bank, the exchange at Caledon Community Services and the cupboard in Orangeville. Local potter Ann Randeran started empty bowls in 2010 and it has become a popular annual event. Empty bowls was recognized in 2016 with the Tourism Partnership Award from Headwaters Tourism. The fundraiser engages artists, restaurants and volunteer servers from across Dufford and Caledon. Local artists donate the bowls and local chefs donate their delicious soup. Empty bowls is happening this Saturday, Sunday October 22nd at the Alton Mill and will be supported by Ray's Third Generation Bakery, Lavender Blue Catering, Landman Garden and Bakery, Gourmandissimo Catering and Fine Foods and Friends Chef Adventures Inc. I hope to see you in Alton on Sunday to support Empty bowls. Thank you. Well thank you Speaker. I'm delighted to rise today to talk about one of my favorite subject matters, craft beer. Now you know many years ago, almost 40 years ago, I helped establish craft beer rules in Ontario with the campaign for Rio Laos and today I get to rise and celebrate Muddy York Brewing Company, a true local business success story in beaches east York. Until recently, Speaker, the only craft brewer I had in my writing. So Jeff and Susan Michalek Began began brewing while Jeff was still running his dye shop in east York. Skillcraft Steel Rule dyes. In 2013, Jeff began brewing in a three hectoliter system and selling to local bars and restaurants, such as the Relish, which is on the Danboard near Woodbine. And after obtaining a retail license and a few successful pop-ups, they could now sell bottles to the public and they expanded to 10 hectoleters. Buying more fermenters over the course of 2015-17, Muddy York has now increased production over 800% and they now opened a retail bottle shop full-time and this is when Susan was able to focus on the brewery in a full-time basis. Susan's background is in design and art and she designs all the labels artwork and marketing social media for sales and both Jeff and Susan began working in a tap room, which was just set up this year and I went to the opening just a couple of weeks ago and it was unbelievably fantastic. So Jeff was now able to sell the dye shop. In fact, he's taken over the dye shop, moved all the production of beer and once was a very successful metal banging shop and he's now on 100% in the beer industry doing 50 hectoliter batches and now he's starting to sell the LCBO. So I want to congratulate Jeff and Susan for what they're doing, promoting great craft beer in Ontario, Beaches East York. Cheers. Thank you. Further statements from Oxford. Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, this week is waste reduction week. My writing of Oxford is a leader in waste reduction. When I was mayor in Southwest Oxford, we created the first mandatory recycling program in Ontario. In 2015, Oxford County Council passed a motion to establish Oxford as a zero waste community, which includes developing strategies to reduce solid waste generation and divert as much waste from landfills as possible. Mr. Speaker, this issue is particularly important in my writing where residents are continually fighting proposed landfill site in Beechville. If developed, this landfill would pose a threat to the town of English Hall's drinking water and the Thames River. I've raised these concerns about the landfill proposal many times in this legislature and I want to continue to push the Minister of Environment and Climate Change to block this proposal. As part of the waste reduction week, I also encourage the minister to look at ways to improve our ability to recycle materials and encourage reuse of materials to keep them out of landfills for as long as possible. I also encourage businesses and individuals to look at ways to reduce the amount of waste they create. When we reduce, reuse, recycle, we can help keep our communities clean and healthy and reduce our dependence on landfill sites. Thank you very much for the opportunity to present this presentation. Thank you. I thank all members for their statements.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RnJCuRbO0A", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

And I love Kate because it has everything, every feature that I would like in a text editor and also it is keeping on getting better and better. I had done a video a while ago showcasing all of the nice Kate features, even things that were very new, such as multi-colorser, which is a super nice feature, which I didn't know I needed. However, now Kate is getting closer to yet another release, the 22.12 release, which is going to bring even more cool stuff. And I actually just now went through the announcement and there's so much there. So as always, link to the announcement is in the video description if I don't forget. But you can just watch this video to get a general idea. So the first big change is not something that is UI-wise, like the user won't directly notice it, but it will allow the developers to add many features that you will notice. And it is the fact that up until now, Kate inside of its tabs could only display, you know, your code and in general, a text view. However, thanks to very complex, it seems underlying changes, now you can display anything like literally anything inside of a tab. Like if I wanted to display an image as a developer, I could add that functionality. What that means is that now these tabs can not longer be just good, but also be something else. And the developer did make use of this functionality pretty much immediately. As an example, if you want to edit the Kate configurations up until now, you add a very small window at the center of the screen and with a lot of options in it. Now whenever you try to edit Kate's configuration, this will open up a tab, just like other files that you have opened. But inside of this app, you will actually get all of the settings of Kate. So you will be able to edit them in a window that is as big as Kate's because it is Kate's window. I think it's a very nice feature and it will make it much easier to actually change Kate configuration. So a big step forward. Secondly, there's a new feature that will mean you will immediately notice as soon as you open Kate. So usually when you do that, you just get an empty file and you will that will still happen for the simpler version of Kate, which is K write. However, with Kate from now on, from 22.12 on, you will get a welcome page. This welcome page will have all of the recent files and also all of your saved sessions. And if you just click on a session or on a recent file, that session will be restored or that file will be restored, which is very nice. There's also directly in the welcome page an option to turn this off and make sure that Kate gets back to the whole behavior of opening a blank file if that is what floats your boat. You also get some other options, such as links to the homepage of Kate and links to how to donate to the Kate project and a button to open a new file, obviously. Okay, so the past versions of Kate has added a functionality that actually I never used because I like very simple things, but that a lot of people have used and that is support for Git. So basically you have a sidebar on the left that is able to give you all of the information about the Git repository that you're currently working on. As an example, it's going to tell you what is the branch you're in, the commits, you can commit directly from the interface if I'm not mistaken. Now, another very big change has arrived. And that is when you actually do like a commit and you are able to see the diff from one commit to another, that diff will be displayed directly inside of Kate, again, as if it was a normal file, but it will be displayed as a diff, which means that you will have in green all the new parts and in red all the parts that got removed, this kind of things. So just like if it was a Git diff that you see on GitHub or GitLab as an example, but directly inside of Kate, which is super cool. You have this split view with old code, new code, this kind of things. You can switch between if you want just one file with the red and green parts or side by side, new and old. It's customizable, which is nice in the kitty's land. If you only want to commit certain changes, you can actually unstage individual hanks of changes and lines directly from the UI, which is also very nice. I also forget one thing when talking about this new page where you can see all of the Kate's configuration. And that is pretty important. It has a giant search bar on the top. So if you're not sure where that option that you're looking for is, now you can just search for its name in the search bar. And that will work. And I think this is a very good moment to pause and remind you that not only you have that, but you also have search throughout all of Kate actions. That is, that is all of the buttons in the toolbar and in the menu. The shortcut is Ctrl Alt I. And if you press that, you will have this search bar floating in the middle of Kate that will be able to search throughout all Kate actions. Super cool. Use it. Okay, yet another super cool feature that is added in the 22.12 version is a new clipboard history paste dialogue. So if you press Ctrl Shift Alt V, Ctrl Shift Alt V, remember it, and pop up will pop up. And you will be able to see all of your clipboard history. And for each element, there will be a preview syntax highlighted, and you will be directly able to edit that clipboard element before passing it, which is very cool. So you copy a large chunk of code, you go somewhere else, you go into the clipboard manager, you see that what you copy copied is indeed what you need. And if there's anything to change, you can do it before even pasting, which is cool. Like, how cool is that? And I mean, I don't know what else to say about it. Like, it's cool. It's just that cool. Oh, small correction, the welcome window is in K-Write too, not just Kate. K-Write, sorry. There is also like smaller things going on in this update, very quickly reading them. There are various improvements to the build plugin, more actions that are commonly used now have default shortcuts assigned. The sidebar button can now be moved into its own section by right clicking on them. And this allows opening multiple tool views in one sidebar simultaneously. Documents can now be touched into a new window from the tab context menu, and the status bar uses less spaces and is now configurable. If you want more details than that, again, video description, blog post that has been published on the 31st of October, and it is for that reason called Treats for Kate. It was published by Eric Armbruster. I try to pronounce these names, I promise. So thanks everybody for following and see you tomorrow with yet another video. Bye.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ru3cQx2QDI", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }
UClVfsHNDfmTe66tzYyNFwBQ	Cultivating a DevOps Culture by Owen Rogers	Devops represents a different approach to IT operations -- an approach based on the principles of collaboration, visibility and automation. For developers it means a better understanding and greater visibility into the environment that the production system is running; for operations it means closer collaboration with development and a greater focus on frequent deployment, monitoring tools and automated system provisioning. The result is more supportable, scalable systems with a streamlined deployment process and a lower cost to operate. This presentation covers the principles, practices and tools that we have found help nurture and sustain a devops culture. Speaker: Owen Rogers (@exortech) Product lead, Pulse Energy Buy full length videos of 95 sessions from Agile India 2013 at http://booking.agilefaqs.com/ai2013dvd/	[ "Agile India 2013", "Agile", "Lean", "Agile Software Development", "Agile India", "Agile Development Practices", "DevOps" ]	2013-04-22T01:32:16	2024-02-05T20:57:24	186	5rtQtZ9LARw	So for the people who said that they do DevOps within the organization, how big is your company? How many people do you have? Well, let's say within the DevOps, do you have a dedicated DevOps team, or do you have a product team that contains operations people? Wow, it's so funny. I mean, the teams that you have here are much bigger than the teams that I'm used to working with. How about for other people who are doing DevOps similar? It's about 100 people. And so within your organizations can developers push code directly to production? They can do it together with an operations person? I see. OK. Great. Great. And I mean, that's really what it's about. It's about that close collaboration between development and operations. I'll go through some of that a little bit more in the presentation. Let's see. Are we ready to start? All right. Looks like we're set to go. So first off, just a quick introduction in terms of who I am. I'm a product lead at a company called Pulse Energy. By the way, this is my Twitter handle. Generally, during the talks I've been giving, I've been asking people to please tweet about anything that you find of interest during the talk. I'd love to get your feedback. And I'll try and respond to any of the questions that are raised over Twitter. So this is the company that I work for. And a lot of the practices that I'm going to talk about are based on my specific experience. So if you've got some questions about some of the practices or tools as we go through the material, please feel free to ask. I'm happy to go into detail. So yes, we do dev ops within my organization. But just a disclaimer for me personally, as it seems like is true for most of the room, I'm definitely more on the development side than on the operations side. So my perspective is going to be influenced by that. And this entire presentation has been inspired by Dilbert. So hopefully everybody here enjoys a Dilbert cartoon. Specifically, this is a little joke about virtualization solving the energy crisis. I work for a company that does work on energy efficiency, so it's kind of appealed to me.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rtQtZ9LARw", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

I guess we talked a lot last off season just about your size, strength, maybe what you're looking to do going into the season. What have you kind of focused on this off season, you know, to get yourself ready and how you're feeling here as you wrap up OTAs? First off, man, I have to be back. I'm feeling good, probably the best out and felt. You know, I probably said this last time, but you know, coming off the two season I just had rookie year and the second year. Going to this third year, probably the best out and felt, body-wise, mentally, just getting prepared for the season. I know that they expect a lot out of the front, not just me, but a front, but I know they expect a lot out of me personally. Now I'm accepting that role coming in. We're going to have a great year. Whatever I can do to have the team win and every down, every snap, giving my all, trying to be disruptive. But as I've seen, I've just been working on trying to keep my weight down, you know, changing, eating habits a little bit different. But they're trying to maintain and, you know, get leaner. And you know, I think I did a great job of that, especially coming in this off season, you know, first week, first month of working out, kind of did a lot of functional movement and what it, what it might be. And then, you know, everything that just fell out, you know, like I said, I've been feeling the best out and felt in a while. So. Paul? Hey, Jeff, is this your first week of working with Danico and what are your early impressions of him? How much can his presence help you? Of course, this is my first week of working out with him, you know, especially on the field, you know, see him twice a year for the last two years as I've been with the Titans. And, you know, I just know he could be disruptive because you could tell from the way he get off the ball, the way he doing drills, you know, we out there even coaching me up, you know, telling me, you know, just play with the lint. You know, don't let the guy get his hands on you, stuff like that, you know, him being a vet in the room and, you know, just taking the coaching from him, not just, you know, coachee, whoever it may be, but, you know, being the vet that he is, you know, he out there coaching up young guys. And, you know, I think that's the most exciting part about it. You know, just OTAs, him coming in. You know, you don't really know nobody, but he willing to, you know, pour what he know about the game, especially up front to us young guys. So, I mean, it's been good just to watch him and be out there on the field and communicate with him. I think it's gonna be a great year up front with us. Kayla. Hey, Jeff, good to see you. We've talked to some of the veterans on the team, Kevin Byer, talked to Jay on Brown the other day. What's just the mentality of this defense as a whole going in with kind of what's on your shoulders to take it up a couple levels from last year on learning from some of those mistakes? Yes, for sure. You know, we always want to be better than we was the year before, the day before, you know, that's kind of something we break it down on, you know, let's be better than what we was the day before. I think with that mindset that, you know, we had coming in, you know, just even on the Zoom, you know, you can hear a guy talking, you know, I know a lot of guys expecting it more out of the defense, you know, not just from the coaches, but because, you know, leadership is about, leadership come from within the team. And, you know, if it's getting led by, you know, KB, Jay Young or Sean, whoever it may be up front, whoever, you know, it could be a young guy, whoever taking that role to be a leader, you know, pushing the defense to be the best we could be and to help out the team to win games. And, you know, the game, win games will tend to win the championship and so forth. And I think the mindset of, you know, to be able to compete at a more higher level, you know, be better on third down, whatever it may be, I think the mindset we have right now and the approach we're taking, I think we're going in the right direction right now. So. Terry. Jeff, follow up on that. Has it been difficult individually and as a group to kind of take ownership of what happened last year and how much additional motivation is it to try and fix what went wrong last year? Well, you know, I think that's one of the things we look at as a team, you know, and not just, you know, just a D-line room, you know, because I think as a defense, we looked at, we don't look at just, oh, we didn't have no pass rush. We don't look at, you know, God's gonna beat over top or God's gonna beat whatever it may be. We look at how can we, you know, get the pieces together on defense and put the best guys on the field to help us be better this year. You know, I don't think we focus on what happened last year, you know, because we can't change that. All we can focus on, how can we be better this year? You know, first and second down to help us on third down, whatever it may be. And I think that's the goal now. I think as you guys know, I mean, kind of the reason why we added a lot on defense to help us, you know, put the best guys on the field to help us be better on the field, you know, whatever the situation may be. So I don't think we just focus on last year. I think this year we're taking that step, you know, since we've been here with OTAs, how can we be better each and every day to get ready for the season? Ron. Yeah, Jeff, knowing the additions that you guys have made, you know, especially looking at Bud DePriah, how much does that help just the pass rushing culture to help some of the things you guys could do as far as stunts and games up front? You know, we just, I know, we just don't do stunts a game, you know. I think with the thing about our defense, you know, I don't, you know, we never know what may be happening. You know, we never know coming to the game, whatever the game situation may be. I know that our coach is going to be able to put us in a situation, whatever it may be. If we're in a game, are we going, you know, one on one, or, you know, going straight rushing, you know, I think we, that's the reason why, you know, Bud decided, you know, I know he's going to disrupt the player, he'll come out there and give it all he got. And, you know, it's just not going to be Bud, you know, because sometime Bud might get too. It's going to be other guys going to have one-on-ones, you know, whoever, you know, we got to be able to win on one-on-one of what I'm trying to say. So, you know, whoever it may be up front, you know, it's me, Harold, you know, you got Bud, you got D'Nico, like I said, the pieces that we got together on the defense, we've been working together these OTAs period, you know, we're just trying to see and feel out of each other that to see how we're going to better communicate, how can we communicate with each other better this year than we did last year. So, I mean, I'm excited for the guys we got. And I think, you know, it's been much better this year. So. Teresa. Jeff, you mentioned changing what you eat a little bit. How have you gone about, have you cut out fast foods, are you eating more poultry, or have you gone vegan? What is it that you've done to try to help yourself there? No, I haven't went vegan. I don't think that's for me. That's not for me. I couldn't do it. I need to have, you know, some of the protein, you know, chicken or something. But, you know, it just, it just cleaned it up, you know, even when I want, you know, like a snack or something, it's not going to get Doritos or something like that. It's more like a healthier snack, you know, shakes, more shakes. And, you know, just cutting out a lot of carbs, you know, because I think, you know, not eat a lot of carbs, kind of sticks on me a little bit. And I've just been cutting out a lot of stuff like that, you know, my time in it, you know, try to eat every day around the same time, try to keep on, you know, staying on schedule, whatever it may be. And that's pretty much what it was. Not just, you know, you know, a lot of guys, like, might probably go on a diet. You know, I don't go on a diet. It's kind of, I just call it, you know, changing my habits the way I eat. And like I said, I don't really eat fast food in no way. So, maybe just a small little detail, like I said, with, you know, not eating bad snacks, I think, and cutting out the carbs.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RGFB8Z9b3g", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

What you have just heard is the question asked during the war to agents of the OSS ordinary citizens who to this question answered yes This is cloak and dagger Espionage international intrigue these are the weapons of the OSS Today's adventure Norwegian incident is suggested by an actual incident recorded in the Washington files of the Office of Strategic Services a Story that can now be told It was quite a jump from being an associate professor at Wisconsin to the Red Dust of Camp Rooker But like most of the guys I just got used to it I got used to the clothes the food They let me lie in it a while longer. I might even have gotten used to that army cut a Anderson you awake come on get up. That's what I like about the army Everybody's so considerate. Come on. Come on. The captain wants to see it. Are you too for a low snap to it and get your clothes on What's it all about? How should I know ask private for a low? He's the guy with all the answers. What'd you do now Pete? Nothing the captain wants to see us at this time of the night. You must have pulled up beauty Are you nuts the captain is a pal of mine probably wants to know if I'm awake Gentlemen what I'm about to say is confidential just between the three of us if you refuse my Offer it will not be countered against you nor will it go on to your record. I understand sir The Office of Strategic Services has requested both of you. Well, I accept I've always jumped to having an office job with a pretty whack for a secretary. I'm afraid you don't understand Have a cigarette, huh? Oh Thanks, you see the job of the OSS is to disrupt enemy activity in every way possible and one of their most effective methods is To drop men behind enemy lines. Oh me. May I ask why I've been requested sir Well, I understand corporal Anderson your parents come from Norway and that you speak the language Yes, sir. I've spent most of my last ten summers in Norway But why me I have a tough time with English according to your record for a low you were a Sandhawk Well, yes, sir in civvies. I was a demolition expert. So naturally the army put me in the infantry So yes now this job is strictly volunteer If you want me to leave you alone for a few minutes, I won't be necessary captain I should have wise that when you give me a cigarette captain every time I get something for nothing from an officer I end up in trouble Basic training turned out to be a maypole dance compared to the grind that the OSS put us through Since we've been kids the word sportsmanship had been drilled into us. Well, the OSS kicked it out The other team was playing dirty pool and we had to go by their rules Jagged edge of a bottle stiff fingers in the eye and knee and a groin the flat of a hand across the neck Became close friends of ours We slept on the flight across the Atlantic and finally arrived in London Gentlemen, I will outline your mission to you as you may have some hours. You're going to Norway We'll step over to this map. What are you saying? Shut up a PT boat will take you out tonight Tonight in about two hours. You were land this point. You know the territory cap corporal. Yes, sir My family came from a village not far from there instead of these aerial photographs later. There's plenty of cover Now here is your mission this red line north to the south the main line of supply at this point There's a bridge Which you ought to blow up Well, that shouldn't be tough blowing it up. No, however 500 yards from the bridge right here There's a German company barracks. The bridge is well protected It's up to you to figure out a way to dynamite it. Well, how about our Norwegian contact who's going to meet us? Well, when you hit the shore take cover it precisely 11 o'clock and then we'll be strolling down the beach Stop him ask him how the fishing is you'll answer not too good in winter And then on you're in his hands You Anderson are his nephew and you if you're a law or his cousin. Yeah, but I can't speak Norwegian You will not say anything at any time. You'll be known as the dumb one. What the reason you're called the dumb one goes back to a childhood disease Goodbye gentlemen and good luck They flew us to the north of England Hustled us on a boat and tore off for the coast of Norway. I Briefed Pete on the terrain everything. I knew about the bridge. We studied the photographs and rehearsed the parts we were to play The clothes we were given smelled of fish had been made in Oslo worn by a Norwegian and probably picked up in a hot shop in the Bowery Well, we felt the boat slow down and Pete and I went topside to get our first glimpse of Norway Well, this is as close as we can get gentlemen Now one of my men will row you the rest of the way and return with the boat. That's just dandy How do we get back? According to my orders, you have five days to do your job on the fifth and sixth nights We will return at 0200 fifth and six nights. You will signal us from the beach with a flashlight. You know the signal We can stay no longer than ten minutes Supposing we can't make it out in time. What then I? Hope you can where's the dynamite you're standing right next to it Those barrels are full of fish. Yes the top two layers The rest of the fish have been gutted and filled with plastic containers of dynamite In case you are stopped don't worry about the fish They were caught here last night packed in ice and flown to England and they're still nice and fresh Well, we don't blow up the bridge. We can at least open up a fish store. Let's go Look back as we rode to the shore We listened to the waves hitting the beach We listened to the stillness that seemed to surround all of Norway We beached the boat piled our dynamite behind some bushes and Waited what time is an energy about five minutes past 11 and Joe was supposed to be here at 11 You'll get here supposing they don't make it then what I've got enough rations for five days We'll figure out something. You know they shoot guys who don't wear a uniform behind the enemy lines. I'm out of you scared Yeah So what? So am I What time is it now? Can't be more than 10 after you ought to hold it night Coming down the shore. Yeah, I see him. You stay back in these bushes and keep me covered Our work is back toward you. If I get in any trouble, you know what to do. Yeah, I studied real hard luck. Thanks Good evening, sir Good evening Nice night Dark but pleasant Tell me how is the fishing around here? Not too good In winter you can come out Pete It is good to see you my name is Jan My name is Anderson. This is my partner Pete for Ella. You're welcome to Norway. Mr. Anderson and to you Captain really say I'm gonna like this country the promotions come real quick I understand you're to lead us to a place where we can hide. Yeah, that is true My home is safe for the past ten days. My nephews have been visiting me every night They come down to fishing returned with two barrels. We won't have too much trouble. What kind of trouble you expect and on the Road back. We must pass a German sentry the two of them to be exact However, you look like Little won't you run into trouble having four nephews walking around. No, no the other two left by see Before you arrived. They also left their wagon so that we can carry your catch Say yeah, Bob ain't you awful old to be mixed up in this sort of thing? I've been told that the undergrounds very well organized in this district. Who's the leader? There were no lights in the houses we passed there were no people on the roads This was occupied territory fear and hate filled the air This was Norway with no songs Unless you can make music out of the heavy tread of a German soldier We pulled the wagon up the road for about four miles without saying a word Then we saw the road block of the head the German sentry does he understand our region? We took him in after the last war. We brought him up and he promised to come back They all kept their promise nice guys to have around Pete Your friend places part well Remember you have traveled this road for over a week if this entry is familiar and don't be surprised Hold your breath Pete remember which fish swallowed the 45 It is you here Janssen. Yeah, dark night tonight. Yeah, my hair. How was the catch? We had a good catch here. Let me take a look. I'd like to know what they'll be serving us tomorrow Out of my way dumb one. I wouldn't mess with the fish and why not? The smell it will stick to your uniform and then the curls will object You are smart for no reason Janssen, when am I going to get another bottle of that brandy tomorrow night? I will bring it to myself Hey, don't run. Why aren't you wearing their pants with the patch? Where did you get the new sweater? Oh, I am having them cleaned I'll bet he is going to see his girl Imagine the dumb one with a girl He wouldn't know what to say It is very funny my hair Move along Janssen. The stink of fish is beginning to hang in the air. Go along now. Yeah. Hey dumb one Maybe you will introduce me to your girl I'll bet she looks like a fish Guys got a great sense of humor made a move for that barrel of fish. I thought we were done. It was close. Close for him too Say, uh, mom You and I German sentry were real chummy and they're kind of dangerous for the head of the underground Here you are for the head of the underground, but I am also the local Christian Reached his house without any trouble It had been two very long days and we were beat I managed to get my shoes off before I collapsed And then the sun broke in through the window and I got up Pete and I went down for breakfast Wasn't much to eat so we broke out our rations and treated Janssen and his housekeeper to some real special delicacies Dried egg and chocolate That was good I'm not the army here you say that, huh? They've dried everything up with steak. Mr. Janssen Are we going to have any Unexpected visitors? I do not think so the Germans very seldom come to my home Occasionally an officer will drop in but uh, not often How many men will you need? I hope we won't need any Tonight Pete and I will take a look at the bridge. How close can we get? That depends on what on how much of a chance you want to take We've got to get right on it if possible When we place the dynamite it must be done fast. We can't afford to grope You can walk across Just like that if the sentry doesn't stop you I would suggest that you ask his permission Is he serious handy? Very See if we get caught sneaking across we're liable to be shot If we can fool the guard at the bridge We walk across and supposing we don't fool the sentry You get shot There it is up ahead. Yeah, I've got that honey pacing back and forth. Wait a second Whatever you do, don't say a word even if he sticks that bayonet into you Don't say one word. I hope you and that guy hit it off real well Janssen gave me a good story. It should work Come on Good evening Leutnant I am a corporal Not that I wouldn't make a better officer than most of them What do you want? We would like to cross the bridge Bye Mr. Janssen is our uncle We have a message to deliver What kind of a message about a party for the Germans who are barracked here For the officers I suppose Let me see your papers You too. He is dumb. He cannot speak. You can hear can't he papers I think all Norwegians are dumb. The party is to be for the enlisted men Of course you understand. I was not referring to Herr Janssen. He is a smart man He knows which side his bread is buttered Here are your papers. Go on now Don't float on the bridge. Thank you. Keep your eyes open Pete. You can only make this trip once. Yeah, yeah, yeah How does it look to you We can do it when it'll take us at least a an hour to set this down an hour. It's an awful long time This is an awful big bridge You're going to have to do a good job the first time I see you got back. Did you have any trouble? No, no trouble I told him that you were going to throw a party for the enlisted man. He was quite pleased Mr. Ferrello, you think you can do the job. I can do it. All right if I have the time Now it is very important to us. This is their main line of supply from the north. It will cripple them for months What happens after we do this? There will be reprisals. A few more will die Huh? That's a tough shake. Yeah There are times when it is better to die When you tend to blow up the bridge day after tomorrow the boat will be there to pick us up If we blow the bridge at 12 We'll still have two hours. They're more than enough time Hey, ain't it gonna look bad for you? Your nephews disappear in the night the bridge goes? Yeah, my real nephews will come back on time. We better get some sleep Now look, I'd appreciate if you'd have the underground give me a timesheet on the German guards. Yes, sir. Yeah. How many when they change where everybody is within a mile I will have everything tomorrow afternoon. Well, come on, Annie. Let's turn in If I know that being a spy was going to be so easy I'd have bucked for it long ago Yeah, things are going easy. All right Too easy Hey, where you been, Andy? I've been waiting an hour. We got a rod to fool to make remember We aren't blowing the bridge tonight, Pete. Why don't you think you ought to let me in on your plans? It's my neck too. It's an opportunity. We can't afford to pass up Look professor in this game. We play for all of marvels. So stop talking to riddles according to Jansen A troop train will be passing through here tomorrow night The Nazis are moving south and we can put a real crimp in their plans Keep talking. Not only do we blow the bridge, but we blow up a loaded troop train And you ain't that shaving it a bit then tomorrow night till last night. We can make that boat remember It's up to you, Pete Stop making me the heavy. I'm wanting to do it your way. Only I want to know what I'm getting into That's all there is to it Well, just one more question Have you figured out how we uh get to the beach after the blow-up through the woods We're not crawling with Nazis. Now, wait a minute. Wait a minute. The commander that boat said He'd only wait 10 minutes and supposing the woods are crawling with Nazis Well, we take the big gamble and try to float down the river to the sea Hope we make it. That's all Yeah Well, okay, I vote your way since we're here. We might as well do it upright It's a wonderful opportunity Pete. Even if it is a big gamble. I don't mind a gamble I just hope the dice ain't loaded We sat for hours and watched the darkness At 11 we looked at our watches thought about the Pete Teepo'd anchored off shore There were a lot of ifs in our plans If the moon didn't shine if the Germans didn't wise up if the train wasn't late if the guards weren't doubled We spent a long night and a long long day waiting for it to get dark again when Jensen burst into the room Hey, oh, uh, you will have to change your plans. We can't we're set to leave in 30 minutes On stairs a guest stop who major Somebody talked. I don't know. He says he's um looking for someone. That's just dandy He was here some weeks ago. He met both of you. I mean my real nephew Come on start thinking Andy. We can't walk past him with our arms full of dynamite Can't you get rid of him? No, no when he's in this district. He spends the night here. He sent me for you Oh, great. I Think you can fool him Anderson. You resemble my nephew Arne closely, but uh, then here dumb one. I don't know Yeah, well, he better be fooled because I'll be carrying a 45 under my shirt. Come on, Pete If we can bluff this through we've got a chance Jensen bottle of brandy Oh, there you are. I didn't see you standing in the doorway I can see the bottle bring it here Nana come in I want to talk to you. Yeah, my hair I understand norway is playing host to a couple of american spies That is impossible in my name impossible, but true However, I should catch them and teach them a lesson. Do you know what they look like my hair? Of course, I do not know what they look like. You stupid loud. You think they go around singing yankee doodle dandy Oh, no, my hair more brandy this bottle's empty. I will get some no, no Send the dumb one go ahead go It's odd I could have sworn last time I was here. He was stoop shoulder Hey dumb one, uh first the brandy. Well, of course the brandy That's what brings me back to this miserable place. Yeah, I am glad there's something brings you back Yeah, I'm sure you are you probably hate me Don't mind hair you you do me an injustice. Of course. You are one of our dear quizlings How about you are now how much do you hate me? No, my hair No, my hair You were almost as dumb as the other one Where is he? He's right here with the brandy Give it to me dumb one Oh He opened it for me. Oh nice. Thank you dumb one Anna come here take off my boots. Yeah, mine hair Your lick them I could send you to it What's happened to your hair? Jansen I thought your nephew What was that? Oh your dear dumb one. He dropped the tray clumsy fool Ah brandy should be drunk from a bottle This is brandy Jansen it has been long Yeah Huh, I don't understand that he could drink two gallons or not even get a little drunk He's getting plastered now. I'll be out for at least 10 hours. I don't understand it Well, I don't know what the Norwegian word is, but in brooklyn we call it a Mickey Just over this ridge where late andy and train is doing less than an hour Well, you'll just have to work faster. That's all I hold it. What now? I got guards in the woods. Yeah, I see him It's gonna be tough to get around them slip under the bridge. That would take us over an hour Would miss the boat We'll have to walk the road right to the bridge. What about the sentry? I have to get rid of them and pray that we have time to set the dynamite before they discover him So we hit them together you walk about a pace behind me. I've got it close enough to use a knife It's got to be the first time so don't mess Good evening Oh, it's you. Don't you pay any attention to the curfew? What does he got in the package? Come here and let me For a college man, you sure lined a lot of things. Look, you'll have to set the dynamite alone I'll slip on his coat and stay here pretend. I'm the sentry. I'll set it as quick as I can lock. Thanks You finished? Yeah, I wish I had more time, but I think this'll do it. Let's start moving. We can't What do you mean we can't? I didn't time fuse it. What? We had to stay and set it off. Why? Look, suppose the train is late. The time fuse had missed We stayed this long. You might as well finish your job, huh? Where's your detonator? About 100 yards back. Lead the way. Okay I didn't I didn't have time to bury the wire I hope nobody trips over it Bridge looks like a Christmas tree, you know more wires than American TNT Well What we can do now is wait. Yeah Gee, I wish I could smoke a cigarette. So do I Might as well get comfortable How much time we got to get to that boat, huh? Less than 50 minutes Huh Too late to go through the woods Too late Well So is the river It's gonna be tough Half a railroad will be drifting with us. Don't worry about that later We're gonna be sitting ducks when that bridge goes It'll be like no Looks like they found our friend It's really gotta get crowded here and about Hey, hey, here comes a commuter special. It's our target. Look at it snake along It's getting closer Wait till hits the middle and then push the plunger You'll take the whole bridge, you know make sure you get the cars.

Our analyses are guided by humanism and political progressivism. Each news story we cover is supplemented with thought-provoking, fact-based commentary that aims for the highest level of objectivity. #HumanistReport #THR #MikeFigueredo	[ "Marie Newman", "The American Prospect", "Medicare For All", "Force the Vote", "FTV", "Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez", "AOC", "The Squad", "Politics", "The Humanist Report", "THR", "Mike Figueredo" ]	2021-01-30T17:59:02	2024-02-05T16:10:26	539	5RF8qqwwDXU	So even though the force to vote era and effort is over, you know I still believe that it's a good idea to get a floor vote on Medicare for all I know that some folks disagree with that strategy and that's fine But I want to see like a concerted effort by progressive Democrats in Congress to continue pushing when it comes to Medicare for all I don't want them to just basically like accept defeat and You know accept that we're not gonna get Medicare for all during the Biden era. So we might as well not even fight I want them to continue to advance the goal Fighting for Medicare for all. And so what I want from them is a signal that they do actually have a plan and In an interview with the American prospect the newest members of the squad Marie Newman specifically she did assures that she does have a plan and she was also asked about a force to vote and She said something that was really really interesting and I feel a little bit reassured based on what she says But then immediately we'll go to something that Mondair Jones says and I don't like what he says And I don't feel reassured based on what he says But first Marie Newman was asked there's this debate now about where to go strategy wise the force to vote calls come to mind in Particular where do you think we go strategy wise as progressives? She responded by saying I like strategies that work I know there's noise out there and I don't understand that strategy. It's articulated by folks who have never spent a day in Congress I love the spirit and the passion. I'm with them on spirit and passion and desire for that legislation It's not like we're sitting on our hands. We do have a plan to bring a Medicare for all bill to the floor We're working on it. We're not going to let our cards be seen yet But are we going to work really hard on Medicare for all? 100% are we going to get it to the floor? 100% we have to bring Medicare for all to the floor in a responsible and powerful way that has good strategy That's the one I'm backing. I'm not backing a super risky throw the dice crapshoot model So I like most of what she's saying although I reject the implication that you know your input is invalid if you haven't been in Congress I mean, she was just sworn in I Think that strategic advice is important from outsiders because we don't have like that Insider bias. I mean we have the outsider bias, but I think that our input should still be valuable So I reject that but but putting that aside when it comes to a floor vote on Medicare for all she says We're 100% going to get it to the floor That's what I want to hear. I don't want to hear. Oh, well, you know what? It's not it's not the time It's not going to come up currently. We need to continuously push to advance Medicare for all and To hear her say that to signal to us that there's a sign Of life Friendly some members of the squad and they're going to keep fighting for this That's really important because look I will admit that it's it's a it's a difficult time To be a progressive member of congress because there are so many crises that our country faces I don't know where to begin like for me if I were a member of congress and I just got elected I wouldn't know where to start. There's there's too many issues to fix But what I do want to know is that Medicare for all is an issue that is at the forefront Of their priorities and this assures to me at least that It is Now we go to the part where marder jones is going to say something that kind of contradicts What mary newman says? I'm just going to read it to you. I'll tell you why I have an issue with it So he claims that the democratic party has in fact shifted to the left overall, which I actually disagree with But then he was asked about Medicare for all He was asked one place where that leftward drift doesn't seem or seems less obvious is the health care question There's a block that backs Medicare for all Joe Biden has supported the public option and house leadership has focused just on expanding the aca How do you think progressives should intervene here? He responded by saying imagine debating the merits of a public option versus Medicare for all When there is a six three conservative majority on the supreme court that will strike down the affordable care act So I push back on the idea that that's going to be the nature of the fight So, um, this ain't it. This is a really really bad take and I hope that more members of the squad don't agree with this I hope that they actually unequivocally reject this line of thinking because if you're waiting to fight for Medicare for all Until the conditions are right so that way it's not going to be attacked Well, you're never ever going to find the time to get Medicare for all It's never going to be the right time because we live in a capitalist system So even if there was an eight one liberal majority on the supreme court if you got it passed guess what Capitalist forces will attack that system once we actually get Medicare for all past It is going to be a constant battle forever that will never ever end To keep the progress that we've made in every single country that has either a single payer or a national healthcare system There's always the threat of privatization That's always going to be the case. We're going to constantly have to fight to expand benefits To fight, you know the forces of the private health insurance industry if they're not fully abolished with whatever You know a conception of Medicare for all passes if that's the case It's just this is a cop out to me and I don't like it and monday ron's Needs to reevaluate like what you fight for because if you are waiting to pass something at the safest moment You're not going to get anything accomplished. So to say oh, well, we can't pass Medicare for all When there's a 6 3 conservative majority on the supreme court Well, what can we get done? They can basically strike down anything I mean, there are things that lawmakers can do To protect their legislation from a constitutional challenge and there will be constitutional challenge challenges that pop up by conservative organizations and whatnot But I mean like This is the nature of politics You're not going to find yourself in the perfect situation where you pass something and it stands as it is We just need to get Medicare for all because once people have it, it'll be more difficult to take it away from them Right and you don't necessarily know for a fact that it will face a challenge I think it's very likely but this was the case even if bernie sanders were to become president We all anticipated Medicare for all to be held up to the highest scrutiny imaginable But you don't not fight for it willingly So yes, uh, I absolutely disagree with monday rjones That the nature of the fight will be Medicare for all versus a public option versus expanding the affordable care act And this is not to say that monday rjones is a sellout and doesn't support Medicare for all I believe that he does support Medicare for all. This is what he ran on And so far he hasn't given me any indication that he's backing away from that But I think that when it comes to strategy he has A lot to learn because this tells me that he either doesn't understand capitalism or has a flawed strategy of change So I hope that you know This thinking doesn't rub off on other members of the squad But I I am a lot more confident in aoc in quarry bush and marie newman now that she's reassured us And I just wanted to know that this issue isn't going to get put on the sidelines that they're going to continue To fight uh because look you've got to strike while the iron is hot during a pandemic We need health care more than ever 15 million americans lost their employer-based health insurance in 2020 So if we don't continue to push the envelope push this issue That's a failure on us. So I want to know that our allies in congress have our backs And I want them to know that we have their backs and when push comes to shove When they need us to make phone calls when they push a full floor vote on medicare for all Coordinate with us coordinate with left media. We will help you We will assist you because we want the same thing you want We want medicare for all because it is absolutely outrageous that people in this country continue to die And even during a pandemic the same folks who never supported medicare for all aren't even considering Re-evaluating their positions. So, um, you know, this is interesting. I'll link you to the full interview They also had cori bush on here as well and jamal bowman, but um Yeah, that's a really interesting questions asked by the american prospect Hopefully you will check out the full interviews with the newest members of the squad	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RF8qqwwDXU", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

So if you are able to have your own dental hygiene practice it does depend on your location. If you're not sure please check with your dental hygiene association if you are able to have one some areas can't. And some areas cannot I am personally in Ontario. So in Ontario we do need to become a self initiated dental hygienist. We can take a course for that several other things but then we can have our own dental hygiene practice. But what I want to talk to you guys in this video today is I want to talk to you guys about what if you're on the fence of. Well should I have my own dental hygiene practice or should I just continue working for a dental office so I'm going to give you some key points here that you really need to think about like both are good. And not so good but I'm going to give you guys different sides of the coin to really help you guys decide if having your own mobile dental hygiene business is best for you. So I'm going to talk about dental hygiene practices in general, but just so you know I am specific to a mobile dental hygiene practice so I see patients in their own home. I travel to them I bring in all of my equipment into their own home, but I also see patients in one room in my home so I do a little bit of both. I do not work in a full practice, I do not have a separate business like brick type location. Okay, so it's mobile and in my own home okay but what I'm going to talk to you guys about is going to be the same thing regardless it doesn't matter if you are thinking about having your own standalone business or not. So what I'm going to talk to you guys about what it's like having your own dental hygiene practice versus working for a dentist or working for somebody else so the first question. People always ask me is do you make enough money. Are you going to be in the red. Okay, so I've had my own dental hygiene practice since late 2018. Yes, you make much better money than if you worked for a dental office to look at it this way. When I worked at a dental office when I left. I was making $45 per hour. And I was working like Monday to Friday, some Saturdays actually as well from eight till six, hardly getting a lunch, seeing a lot of patients every day I was exhausted and making $45 per hour. That's pretty good money though right like $45 per hour is pretty good. Now in my own practice I set my own schedule. What my day looks like is I work typically 10am till two. I don't start earlier than 10am you guys I'm not a morning person but guess what I can do that 10am till about two. How many hours is that that's not a full day. 10am by two 30 typically again I travel right so some of that does involve travel time, but 10am till 2pm, and I can make anywhere depending on what type of patient I'm seeing, whether it's a new patient exam, a child adult or a new patient care if it's teeth whining. Let's just say on average I make about $200 a person. That's a lot better than $45 a person right $200 a person versus $45 a person well geez which one am I going to pick right. Again, it does depend on the types of patients I'm seeing. So, yes, you make better money, but another kind of side note to that as well as well you have to find your own patients. In the office they basically come to you because the business has been established it's been set up. So you do need to advertise you need to market you need to find your own patients. You will not be making money unless you find your own patients, patients aren't going to magically come to you, especially a mobile dental hygienist. Nobody's heard of it. It's very very rare, you might have one or two in your area, if that, in my area. I'm the only one. There's a mobile hygienist about two hours away, and then I know of a couple more like two hours away the other way closer to Toronto, but in my area. I'm the only one. That's a great thing because I have all of these patients but that also means I get a lot of the what is the mobile dental hygienist can you explain it to me before I book with you it sounds kind of weird you know you never know right. So, you have to find your own patients. If you don't you're not going to make that money. If you need help by the way I'm going to leave the link down below. I do have a course called mobile rdh Academy. The course has been in the working since 2019, where I teach you guys step by step how to have your own mobile dental hygiene business and or one in your own home. So it kind of works together. I go step by step I teach you like this so I talked to you guys in video, step by step where I talked to you guys about how to take it alone if you need one. I talk about business credit cards I talked about business bank accounts, but then I go into to talk about what a typical day is like what you're going to need to buy what you might want to save your money on what you should buy right away. So how much money you should expect to spend the first year. Don't worry you guys I talk about all of that. But then let's move on here. So a lot of dental hygienists that's another thing that they say to me as well. You know, am I going to have a lot of expenses when I work for a dentist when I work for for somebody else I don't have expenses. I work during the day, I come home I don't have to think about work I don't have there's no expenses if I need something the dentist typically buys it for me. I don't have expenses so is that a lot of money. Well, yes, you're going to have expenses of course you will with any business you're going to have expenses. But keep in mind more of your expenses are going to be the first year, because you're going to need to buy things that you don't have yet. The first year I had to buy a portable chair because I'm going portable to patients homes. I had to buy a stool for me to sit in I had to buy some end tables because sometimes patients don't have end table so there's actual portable tables that like fold over that I can put in my car. I wanted to buy some new instruments so I had to do that bibs masks polishing cups a polisher. Any type of materials. So there's more you have to buy the first year I bought a sterilizer. I bought a new laptop because I didn't have one and I kind of need to travel with that portably, but I needed to get a good one that was good enough for my dream software. So I could submit things electronically to patients insurance you get the idea right. So there's a lot of expenses the first year but if you have a good accountant. They can help you with all of that because business expenses are tax deductible. I mean you get like a tax credit for them. You write them off. So just as an example in 2021 I had $30,000 of expenses. I thought though you guys if you think about it, I do not work nine to five every day. If I did think about it working nine to five every day $200 a person. How much money are you going to make you're going to do amazing $30,000 and expenses is nothing and you get a tax credit for that you have to remember that. Again you guys do you want to work for a dental office where you don't have to worry about any of that. Maybe you do maybe that's more comforting to you, or do you want your own business where you run the show, but you have to deal with all of that you know accountants you have to be organized. If you're a mobile dental hygienist you have to keep track of transportation. I could go on here. So those are the main things though that you want to think about I talked about this more inside the mobile rdh Academy as well. Definitely check it out if you're thinking about having your own dental hygiene practice. And with all the points that I just mentioned, if you're thinking, I want to go for everything that Andrea just said. Oh my goodness, I don't want to work for him anymore him or her. I want to have my own business. This sounds incredible. And these points that I mentioned scare you and you're kind of like, Oh my God, I'm going to have $30,000 of expenses. I'm going to have to take it alone the first year. What if I can't find patients what am I, you know, if those scare you maybe think about it a little bit more but also keep in mind, I can help you, I can be your support system inside my course the mobile rdh Academy I teach you guys all of this. How to be organized how to manage expenses. I even teach you guys how to get patients I teach you guys how I do it. I have at least 20 new patients a month at least I've checked at least 20 new patients a month. dental offices are lucky to have 10 new patients a month. And how many patients do dental offices have. I'm a dental hygiene practice if I can have 20 new patients a month I can absolutely help you have a successful business so this is where I come in I can help you. So inside the mobile rdh Academy I give everything to you. If you feel like you do need more help or more kind of one on one I do offer private business coaching as well, specific to dental hygienists starting their own practice. Either if you want your own dental hygiene practice, or a teeth winding practice as well kind of anything dental hygiene related, I can help you guys with. Okay. So let me know if any questions, please click like to this video if you haven't yet that does help me in my channel I really appreciate it. I'm going to give you guys up the link below to the mobile rdh Academy check it out and comment if you guys have any questions. Okay. Thank you guys very much I'll talk to you soon and happy Monday.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RiOAt84WQ0", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Congratulations to you, Gary. Thank you very much. Now, you're no stranger to this arena or winning titles here. How does this third title feel? Well, it's been a while in between the last ones. I think the last one I won was three, four years ago, but it's really exciting to be back in the winner's circle. What's about your other titles that you've got? So I won a Derby title on, it's evading me right now. His barn name was Spider, and I won a Superstakes title on Scooter's Daisy Duke. And so this is the first time in the unlimited amateur, like I said, but we're really happy to be here. Did you feel a difference in the competition because you're in the unlimited now? It felt a lot more competitive. There are a lot more competitive riders in here that go back and forth between non-pro and actually a lot of competitive seniors as well. Okay, so you had a big final, 33 in all, I think 17 or something in your set. How do you go with such a big herd? Well, you know, we spent a lot of time in the cow box. I was up there with R.L. and Michael Cooper, and we had four or five cows on our radar. The first one I cut was a brown bridge, and it was just perfect. And then we went back to the herd looking for a slick neck brown cow, but we couldn't find it. So I cut shape on another cow that we liked, which was a brown wicker pole cow, and that worked out pretty well. And when I walked back to the herd for the third time, we found the slick neck brown cow. Not easy for me to say. We found the slick neck brown cow, and it just worked perfectly. Just got them in a good spot. I put my hand down in the middle of the pen, and it just was great. Can you describe to us that feeling when you've got that horse moving under you like that and it's really in sync with the cow? You know, we only own him for about four months, but he's incredibly strong and powerful. And at times I got to remember to stay soft, because he literally throws me all over the place, but he was just really locked into the cow right now. One time I asked him pretty hard with my left leg to get across the cow, and he just listened, and he got brighter and brighter for the rest of the run. So herding instincts, I take it, has good herding instincts? I'm happy with them. You came by this horse fairly recently, is that right? Tell us. I bought him right after the Futurity. Okay. How often have you shown it? This is the second time for me walking to the herd on him. I showed him, I can't remember, I think at the Bonanza. Yes. Well, some would say that's excellent odds. Yes. I'll take one out of two every time. Now, you've got, I think, 118,000 or so in lifetime earnings. You've won another 11,000. I'm going to guess that you're going to keep going with this horse and keep pushing this winnings up. He's just a four-year-old, and we think there's a lot of upside to this horse. We really do. Thank you for joining us today. Pleasure. Thank you.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RvXlC61lzg", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }
UC2TXq_t06Hjdr2g_KdKpHQg	35C3 - SymbiFlow - Finally the GCC of FPGAs!	https://media.ccc.de/v/35c3-9631-symbiflow_-_finally_the_gcc_of_fpgas A fully FOSS, Verilog to bitstream, timing driven, cross FPGA, usable toolchain. The SymbiFlow project aims to be the "GCC of FPGAs" - a fully open source toolchain supporting, multiple FPGAs from different vendors. Allowing compilation from Verilog to bitstream without touching vendor provided tools, it includes support for large modern FPGAs like the Lattice ECP5 and Xilinx 7 series. These FPGAs can be used for things previously out of reach of FOSS tools, things like high resolution video and many gigabit networking. We have also documented the FPGA bitstreams to allow other new tools and a process for replicating this effort on new types of FPGAs! The SymbiFlow project aims to be the "GCC of FPGAs" - a fully open source toolchain supporting multiple FPGAs from multiple different vendors. FPGAs have been around since 1980s but most have previously require getting giant closed source proprietary black boxes from the FPGA vendor (10 gigabytes or more!). Thanks to SymbiFlow this is no longer the case! Like the previous IceStorm efforts, SymbiFlow includes both documentation of FPGA bitstreams and a workingtoolchain for compiling Verilog into these bitstreams. Unlike previous efforts, this new toolchain supports industry standard timing driven place, and route and significantly larger designs. This makes SymbiFlow a big change over the previous Project IceStorm effort and enables support for large, modern FPGAs that can be used for things like high resolution video and many gigabit networking. This presentation will give you an update on the current status of the project. What currently works, the future roadmap and how you can help with the project and how to expand the number of supported FPGAs even further. Currently SymbiFlow is supporting the Lattice iCE40 plus two modern, capable and popular FPGAs architectures - the Lattice ECP5 and Xilinx 7 Series. The project has also gone to an effort to provide a well documented process for understanding FPGA bitstreams. This provides a clear pathway for new contributors to extend the tooling to support even more FPGAs! Come find out about how a small group are changing the world of FPGA development! About FPGAs Due to their reconfigurable nature, FPGAs make hardware problems into software problems and enable anyone to building custom integrated circuits. This means you could create your ideal microcontroller, not what some manufacturer thinks you want. You can have the exact right set of peripherals including as many SPI, I2C or CAN as you want! Previously developing for FPGAs has require getting giant closed source proprietary black boxes from the FPGA vendor (10 gigabytes or more!). This has strongly hampered their adoption and reduced them to niche use cases. However, with the ending of Moore's law and things like RISC-V, FPGAs have a strong role to play in enabling open source communities to participate in the explosion of new hardware design. They also enable us to apply the high speed of innovation and security we expect from an open source software. Presenters Tim 'mithro' Ansell is the founder of TimVideos.He is known for having to many projects including hardware like the HDMI2USB.tv, I'm Tomu and many more! Through this frustration with FPGA toolchains while developing these projects he ended up being heavily involved with the development of the SymbiFlow project. Tim 'mithro' Ansell https://fahrplan.events.ccc.de/congress/2018/Fahrplan/events/9631.html	[ "refreshingmemories", "leipzig", "congress", "chaos", "2018", "Hardware & Making", "Day 2", "Clarke", "35c3 ov", "35c3 eng", "Tim 'mithro' Ansell", "35c3" ]	2018-12-28T17:11:19	2024-02-05T07:29:01	3,724	5RryRQ1Rr0M	So, the next speaker in this hall is Tim Mithrow. He will give you an introduction on Simbiflow, or basically, yes, finally the GCC for FPGAs. He's an open source developer, a Python guy, and maybe a few people know him about his other project, HDMI to USB, about which there will be another talk later on this Congress, so also catch that, and now I can wish you a lot of fun and a lot of informative takeaways from Tim. The stage is yours. Thank you. So, firstly, I'm going to give you a quick promo for another project I do. You may know me from a project called Tomu. That was an ARM microcontroller in your USB port. Since I really love FPGAs, we decided to do an FPGA in your USB port. I have a whole bunch of pre-production hardware here. If you help us out, I will give you one, but be warned, it does not have a bootloader yet. I'm still working on that. You can use it as a risk five CPU, if you want, rather than FPGA. It runs MicroPython, that definitely works, and it has a fully open source toolchain, i.e. what I'm just about to talk about. So if you're interested in playing with it, I'm interested in getting you hardware. If you contribute, this is a way I incentivize people. So the first question is, what is SimbiFlow? SimbiFlow is a fairly new project, you may not have heard of it before. The first thing and the foremost thing is SimbiFlow is a community. It's not just me. I am not the person who's done 90% of this work. These are all people who contributed in some way to the SimbiFlow project. This is important to understand because the reason I'm up here talking is because we need you to contribute to SimbiFlow, because to get to where we want to be, where we can replace the proprietary tools with fully open source equivalents, there's a huge amount of work that needs to be done. I don't have the time to do it all myself. I need everybody in the audience to contribute in some way to make this possible. So that kind of tells you what the project is, but what you probably came here to learn about is more the tool chain. And I have no idea if people in the audience are FPGA experts or not. So I'm going to start at the basics. If you think of software tooling, you kind of have a bunch of software and then you have a compiler that turns it into a binary. And you can kind of split the compiler into a generic front end, which has a bunch of generic optimizations and then a target specific back end, like there's an arm back end and an x86 back end and maybe a MIPS back end if you're into that. But ultimately, when you're doing C++ for say x86, you take the C++ software, you run it through a generic part that is shared and an x86 back end. And ultimately, you're turning C++ files through this compile step into a binary that you run on your x86 hardware. So we can parallel this in the EDA tooling ecosystem. You kind of have your description of your hardware in a language like VHDL, Verilog, System, Verilog. Then you have synthesis tools, which kind of take that and convert it into the digital logic. And then you have a back end specific part that converts it into, if you're doing asex, an image that you convert a chip out of, in FPGAs into a bit file that you load into your FPGA. And so SymbiFlow is currently Verilog tooling for taking Verilog and generating that binary or bit file that goes on to your FPGA end to end. This is the SymbiFlow tool chain. As you saw in the title, we kind of describe this as GCC for FPGAs. When I'm talking about that, I don't mean we're taking C and C++ and converting into Verilog or directly into something that runs on the FPGA. What I'm using it is as an analogy, some of the core parts of what makes GCC is that it's completely free and open. It's cross-platform and multi-platform, and it has a pluggable, interchangeable architecture. And so that is what we mean and we want for SymbiFlow. We want an end-to-end, fully free and open source tool chain. We want a tool chain that targets multiple platforms, multiple types of FPGAs, not just one vendor's FPGA, and we want to enable an ecosystem which has a whole bunch of different attempts and the different ways of plugging together the tooling. So for a bit of history of how we got here, Clifford Worf who will be giving the next talk started us all off with Project Ice Storm, which he actually presented about at CCC. I can't remember what year, and he demonstrated a full end-to-end tool chain that targeted the Lattice Ice 40. This was pretty impressive because up until that time, there was always this idea that doing a FPGA tool chain was too hard for open source. This is obviously silly because like they said the same thing, it was too hard to do a C compiler, it was too hard to do a C++ compiler, and every time it kind of turned out to be wrong. And Clifford delivered us the proof that this was at least possible. Then Clifford just kind of likes to keep getting stuff done. And so he started a project called Project X-Ray targeting Desylex Series 7 FPGAs. These are much bigger and more comprehensive FPGAs than the Ice 40s. And this is kind of when Simbi Flow or the idea of Simbi Flow kind of started. All of a sudden we now had two different parts from two different vendors that we wanted people to start contributing to. And so I talked to Clifford and we decided that what we really need is a project to bring everything together. And so at 34C3 last year, we launched what we're calling Simbi Flow, which was an attempt to target the both old Ice 40 architecture and the new Series 7 architecture. At that time, it was pretty primitive. But one of the important things we did with Project X-Ray was to kind of document the process we were doing for documenting the bitstream format. And this inspired then Project Trellis, which is a project to document the bitstream for the ECP-5 at FPGA, which is another large FPGA. We originally were targeting a thing called Verilog to Routing. Verilog to Routing's been around for a long time. But some people on the team wanted to basically create a new place and route tool from scratch. And so the people at Symbiotic EDA launched this new project called Next PNR as an alternative to Verilog to Routing to try and provide another option for doing place and route. And so this is what we call the Simbi Flow tool suite. This is what enables you to take a Verilog file and divert it into a bitstream that you can load on an FPGA. Going into more detail, the first thing you kind of need to create this tool chain is the documentation for the bitstream that goes on the FPGA. Sadly, the FPGA vendors don't provide this documentation for some interesting regions, most of which don't make a lot of sense. And so this is where the Project I-Storm, Project X-Ray and Project Trellis kind of fit into. They're trying to create documentation that anybody can use to create new tools. We kind of consider them part of the Simbi Flow project, but other people can take the documentation and target these FPGAs without having to ask us. Then you have the place and route tools. We're still continuing down the line of supporting Verilog to Routing, but we've also got Next PNR. There's also YOSUS. YOSUS I think is the best example of a really great open source project that does synthesis. And we use that as the front end no matter what the back end is, whether it's Next PNR or whether it's Verilog to Routing. And then we have this last thing that we call the architecture definitions. The architecture definitions are highly related to the bitstream documentation. The bitstream documentation tells you how to set the bits to turn on features, but it doesn't necessarily tell you what those things do or why you might want to use them or how you might use them. And that's what the architecture definitions are trying to do. They feed into the place and route. The place and route is the part of the system that tries to figure out how to map your design onto the FPGA. And so the architecture definitions describe the features inside the FPGA and should feed into Verilog to Routing. We're still trying to figure out how they might feed into Next PNR. They also feed into the synthesis because the synthesis needs to know what things inside the FPGA to map to. Lastly, what we're trying to do is make these architecture definitions describe the functionality that's actually in the chip so that we can do verification and testing and simulation of what is actually going on inside the FPGA. This should allow us to do interesting things like formal equivalence checking to prove that the design you started with when mapped to an FPGA actually matches. And this is invaluable in proving that our tool chain actually works. The other idea is that this executable, this architecture definition is executable documentation for what the FPGA is actually supposed to be doing. And so it should include all the silly things that, for example, on the I-40, the I-40 BRAMs do not, you cannot access the I-40 BRAMs for the first 40 clock cycles after the system powers on. That is something we want to include in our models because we want to have accurate simulation of what actually happens so that you can test things in a, say, continuous integration environment rather than having to load it onto hardware. A lot of that is what we want to do. In practice, this is still very preliminary. We're also hoping to make it so that you never have to visit a vendor's website to get the documentation you need. For example, if the Lattice, for example, became very hostile to the open source environment, we don't want to have to depend on the documentation that Lattice provides about the features in the FPGA. We want our own version of that documentation that describes what the things are and how to use them. So that's the part. What is the actual status of this? So if we're looking at the bitstreams or the bitstream documentation projects, this is kind of a summary of where we're at. I'm going to go into more detail now. If you look at the Lattice I-40, this is the first project that the documentation was done for. It's pretty much wide support for all the features you can find in the I-40. There's a couple of I-40 devices that aren't heavily used, that still aren't supported. And so if you want to contribute, we would love your help to add support for those. But pretty much everything, including the logic, the block rams, the hard blocks, the I-O, all that is already documented and things you can use right now. We also have pretty good Verilog models of most of the things. Some of the hard IP could use some good models which demonstrate some of the peculiar behaviors of some of the hard IP. And we still need some tech replacement libraries. For example, if you want to use a design that was originally targeting the proprietary tools, it would be good to have libraries which allow you to use the proprietary tool version on the open-source tool chain. But if you're using the open-source tool chain directly, you don't need those. So that's the I-40. I-40s are quite small FPGAs, they're reasonably simple, but they're great for very small devices like the FPGA Tomu that is inside your USB port, obviously there's not much space. That makes it perfect for this type of device. If we instead look at the Lattice ECP-5, which is Project Trellis, Dave Schaar started after us on this and yet managed to somehow finish before us, Dave's amazing. He has support for pretty much all the ECP-5 parts out there. The ECP-5 goes up to 85,000 logic, four input logic lookup tables, and it has high-speed transceivers. I believe the documentation includes the high-speed transceivers, so you can use them with open-source tools. It's pretty much documented every single bit that we know of so far. Maybe there are some bits that we have yet to see in the design, but pretty much everything you could think of is documented. Again, it would be really nice to have some better Veralog models. We have some basic ones, but things like the DSP, we don't have a really good model of what happens internally in the DSP. And also, we still don't have tech replacement libraries here. If you want to understand exactly what the bitstream inside the ECP-5 looks like, you can actually go and watch this video. It was given at a conference about two or three months ago called Orconf, and Dave Shah goes into excruciating detail about exactly how the bitstream works, and some of the very interesting decisions around how things work. This is the one everybody is probably here to talk about. I would highly recommend that if you don't have to use the Xylek 7 series, you really consider the ECP-5. For most people, the ECP-5 is a viable alternative that is cheaper and better for open-source use cases and is fully documented. Project X-Ray, however, is coming along really well. We're mainly targeting at the moment the Artex 7, specifically the EC7A50T, but that also includes the 15 and 35T, and the Kintec 7. We have some experimental support for Kintec 7, and very recently, like a week ago, some zinc stuff started landing, and our goal was to support all of the series 7 parts. That's the Artex 7, the Kintec 7, the Vertex 7. There's all the zinx with a series 7 style fabric. We already have complete documentation for all the bits in the CLBs or the logic tiles and the distributed RAM, and pretty much all of the routing. We have partial documentation for block RAMs and just recently, IOBs. We still have no documentation for any of the hard blocks or the DSPs. We also don't have very good Veralog models for any of these yet. This would be lovely to have help. We also don't have replacement tech libraries for a lot of the compatibility with Xylex designs. I'm assuming most people here probably have existing Xylex designs that they want to port to the open tool chain. These tech replacement libraries are very important for that, because there are a lot of kind of primitive objects that Xylex say exist, which don't actually exist, but instead just a configuration of a more primitive object. These tech replacement libraries would also be really awesome. If you look inside a series 7, Artec 7, this is kind of all the tiles that exist. This is about what we understand already. As you can see, there's a lot of green. There's still a lot of red, but it's getting there. This is actually slightly out of date. Probably the IOB should be orange, and some of the block RAM should be orange. That's quickly becoming more and more green. This is enough to do a lot of things. This is, for example, the CLBs, the logic slices. You can see that we have zero unknown bits for these logic slices. The sliceMs, which are the distributed memory, we also know all the bits for those. John McMaster, the person you can see on the side there, is here at 35C3. He is spending most of his time at the OpenFPGA assembly, and he would love to help you get into bitstream documentation for the series 7. We're not going to be able to do this all ourselves. John wants to have a life as well, so he would love help. If you, for example, want to use the PCI Express hard block, we would love your help documenting it, and we have a pretty good process for doing this. In summary, you can see that these three projects give us a semblance of that GCC that we were talking about. We have three types of FPGAs from two different vendors, and we have lots of bitstream documentation for many different parts. But because we want to expand this to every FPGA out there, we're doing something interesting as well. This here, if people know their history, you might recognize as probably the first ever commercial FPGA logic block. It comes from the XE 2018, which was available for the really awesome unit price of $55 each. It came with about 64 tiles. It didn't have any block RAM, which is why there's no documentation for the block RAM, but we have complete bitstream documentation for this part. You might ask me, why the hell are you documenting a part that hasn't been used in 20 years? The reason is, because it's so old, it's a really simple part, which allows us to demonstrate how you might go about adding support for this part to the tool chain. That's what we're targeting this. We would love for you to help take this and convert it into a tutorial that allows you to kind of understand how you might add a new FPGA to the full SimB flow suite, because we're very interested in expanding to, as I said, every FPGA out there. This is kind of a full summary of what parts we currently understand the bitstream for. You might notice that Project 2064 has a lot of orange, because it doesn't have parts that exist, like it doesn't have DSP blocks or any of these type of complicated things. We need your help to do this. We're not going to go and document every FPGA out there, because we just don't use every FPGA out there, and so if you're using an FPGA that isn't a XE 7 series, we would love your help in documenting it, and we've kind of come up with a fairly good process through these, our learnings on how to document these previous ones that should make it pretty easy for you to replicate our success. We would also love for people to look at, for example, the Spartan 6 and the Spartan 3. These are very popular FPGAs, there's millions and millions of them out there. I'd very much love to see support, but it's an old part that I'm probably not going to use in any new designs, and so not something that I'm currently targeting. We don't have support for any Altira part. If there are Altira fans out there, we would love your help there. There have been some attempts to document some Altira parts. I don't know the exact status of that. I believe Robert, who was working on that, may be in the audience or may be here at CCC somewhere. You should go and chat to him and see if you can help get some of that stuff upstream into Simiflo. But just documenting the bitstream is only like a third of the battle. You also need to create tools to generate the bitstream. The bitstream needs to be documented before you can generate stuff for it, but it's not just enough to document the bitstream. You also need the tooling to generate the bitstream. And so what's the status of that? As part of doing the mapping and placing route, you need support in both YOSUS and one of the place and route tools. Both the place and route tools use YOSUS as a front end, so you're going to need support in YOSUS to be part of the Simiflo tool chain. Both Next PNR and Verilog to routing, a timing-driven place and route. This is what all the commercial tools use. If you've used Arachna PNR, you'll know that's not a timing-driven place and route, which was another reason why Next PNR was started as a replacement for Arachna to give us timing-driven place and route. And so this is kind of a summary of where synthesis mapping and place and route is kind of apt. Next PNR is probably the best solution at the moment for Lattice Ice 40. You can kind of see the awesome GUI they have here. The status is that you should just be using Next PNR for Lattice Ice 40 right now. It should beat Arachna PNR in everything apart from runtime. And even in runtime, it should be pretty close. The people at the OpenFPJ table told me that you should just be using these tools and reporting bugs. So if all you do is help us by using the tools and reporting bugs, that would be awesome. It would also be good if you could start updating your tutorials. There's a lot of open-source tutorials out there that talk about using Arachna for place and route. It would be much better if they talked about using Next PNR for place and route now. Next PNR is also being used at tutorial sessions that the symbiotic EDA team and Esdan, who created this icebreaker, bored. I believe there may be a few slots left, but I'm not sure. They kind of were running out. If you go and beg, maybe they'll run a few more tutorial sessions. I highly recommend you go along and find out. This will get you started on one of the best dev boards to get started with from the experts. As well, as I said previously, the Tomoe FPJ is a nice 40 design. If you're interested in playing with one of them, I have lots of these here, but again, the bootloader doesn't quite work yet. That's a job for me tomorrow to get that working. I'd love help. I will give you boards if you have the ability to help. Next PNR also supports the Lattice ECP-5. Again, this is the awesome work of Dave Shah. It supports what I call IoT microcontroller level system on chip designs. This is things like little 32-bit RISC-5 processors, but it scales up to doing full Linux-compatible microprocessor system on chip. Dave has an example of Linux running on the OpenRISC-1K running on ECP-5. It's still early, but it's definitely ready if you want to experiment with it. Dave told me that, again, one of the best things you could do for him is use the tools and report the bugs. If you have a project where you could use the ECP-5, it would be really useful for you to try your designs and see whether they work. I would not say make this in your critical path yet, but it's definitely ready for experimenters. That's what Next PNR supports. Clifford will be giving a talk next after this talk on Next PNR so you can get all the really gritty details. I believe some of that may include even how to add new architectures to Next PNR. If you're interested in that, please stay around. Then we also have support for the Lattice I-40 in Verilog to routing. You can see some images of the Verilog to routing GUI here showing some designs. As you can see, it's a lot less pretty than the Next PNR one. This is the difference between having academics do GUIs and other people do GUIs. The Lattice I-40 in Verilog to routing has support for logic and block rams, but it only has a really simple I-O-B model. It doesn't have any DSP blocks or any of the hard blocks supported yet. You can definitely do a Blinky or a IOT microcontroller sock using Verilog to routing, but I would not say it's a production tool chain yet. There are definitely a whole bunch of serious issues with it we need to fix, like the fact that it might use more than 4G RAM to do a fairly small thing. None of this is fundamentally caused by Verilog to routing. More of it is caused by us experimenting on how to describe these things and learning along the way. We would love your help in improving a lot of these things. A lot of it is just Python scripts that generate the routing graph. Having those Python scripts be more efficient or maybe re-region and see if that's so inclined would make a lot of this much, much quicker and use a lot less RAM. I'm terrible at graph traversal. My graph traversal is probably end to a thousand. I'd love people who have better algorithms to come and make it end log in or whatever the correct way to do these things are. I am not good at that type of thing. It works. Please come and help make it better. But the thing that's probably more interesting is that we have basic support for the Xylex Rtec7 in Verilog to routing. With this, there's logic and DRAM, like distributed RAM. This is enough to do a blinky, like a counter, you can also do a RAM tester that writes a whole bunch of values into the distributed RAM and read them out. We know that because that's what we've been doing to test whether distributed RAM is working. Again, this is not a production ready tool chain, but it's getting there. We're very, very close to having an IoT level microcontroller sock. I was really hoping to get this working before CCC, but I got distracted by doing Tomu FPGA stuff. This is, as I said, very close to working. We would love your help in making it work. A lot of it is just working through the process and then debugging when it fails. Some of it is a little bit complicated and a little bit fiddly, but a lot of it is just walking through the process and reporting where you got stuck. Most people should be able to do that. This kind of gives you a summary of where we're at. As you can see, the Ice 40 is pretty much well supported by everything. Project X-Ray is currently only really supported by Verilogs Routing. I know the next PNR guys are chomping at the bit to add series seven support to next PNR, but have been holding off until we can prove that it works in Verilogs Routing. If you're using ECP five, then next PNR is your best bet because VPR doesn't support ECP five pretty much at all. And 2064 doesn't work at all yet. We would love people to work on the 2064 because it's a great beginner project and it would really help us figure out the type of documentation we need to write, for example, how do you add a new tech mapping to your sys? Problem with having been doing this for like two years now is I've forgotten all the things that you don't know when you start. So we really need help from, in some ways, beginners who are technical to help write that documentation and help describe tutorials on how to add something like the 2064, two things like next PNR, and two things like Verilogs Routing. So as I said at the beginning, this is a big project. It's probably as big if not bigger than GCC and it needs your help to become successful. We're putting a lot of work and we're slowly getting there. If you want this to happen faster, we need your help. If you know Python, I am 100% sure I can find something for you to do because almost all our scripts are written in Python. If you know C++, there's definitely a huge amount of stuff you can do. Both next PNR and VPR are written in C++. A lot of the shared libraries are written in C++. We would love your help improving those. Some of them are as simple as writing tests or improving the input output libraries. For example, the input and output library for VPR at the moment just reads the whole file in and then starts processing it. You don't need to know anything about how hardware works to fix that problem. That's just a simple event-driven parser. So even if you know nothing about hardware, if you're a C++ programmer, you can definitely help us. If you're one of these weird people who know Tickle, we would love your help because I'm not going to learn Tickle. And pretty much all the EDA tools out there use Tickle. I know John has an interesting relationship with Tickle from using it through Vivado. I'm sorry that you had to do that, John. So if you know Tickle, please help us. Pretty much all the tooling for doing the fuzzing needs at least some Tickle. And you could probably help relieve the stress of Tickle on John. If you know Verilog, as I said, a lot of the simulations and models are written in Verilog, we would love your help doing that. As well as simple designs, like even if you aren't extremely competent with Verilog, writing things like the simple thing that writes a bunch of values into the DRAM and then reads it back and checks that the values it got were correct, we need that type of simple tests to verify functionality. And if you can write Verilog, you could probably write that pretty easily. And we need a whole bunch of different types of things like that that aren't particularly hard to do but definitely need to be done. And so you could definitely help there. Here's kind of a blast from the past. If you know XML, almost all the file formats going into Verilog to routing at XML, a lot of the formats coming out of Verilog to routing XML, a lot of that is done by printf. That would be nice to be replaced. As well as things like having style sheets which confirm that your XML matches a description is useful things you can do or having tools that transform the XML from one format to another format is also really useful. So you can brush off those XLST skills from the late 90s and early 2000s and help us out there. If you know English, which most of you hopefully do, otherwise you're probably being very bored, you can help with things like documentation, things like improving the read me, improving how to get started documentation, improving the website. If you know JavaScript, I'm terrible at JavaScript, please come and help make our website better. If you're a sysadmin and know things like Docker, we would love for the setup to be much, much easier. Things like Docker can apparently make that happen. Things like improving our CI system with Docker is another way you could definitely help. If you have time to contribute this project, I am sure I can find some way for you to be helpful. And the thing is, I've been known to give people hardware for contributing to my projects. And while I won't promise that I will give you hardware, I definitely have a lot of spare hardware that maybe you might find turning up at your place if you contribute to projects like this. Plus, you'll get gratitude from everybody who's ever had to suffer through the proprietary tools. So surprisingly, I got through this much faster than I expected. So we're about 43 minutes, apparently. I'm going to go into questions. I cannot see anybody out there. The lights are quite bright. So you're going to have to wave at me to do questions or something. First but first, thank our speaker for the talk. Please do stay around for Clifford's talk if you want to understand the really nitty gritty details about how things like place and route work. And I'm sure Clifford would love help with Next Pinar. I'm sure Dave Shah would love help with Next Pinar. It's a very cool new tool that is less than six months and is already useful for production stuff. OK, for the questions, remember to get close to the microphone so we can hear you. And if you really have to leave, do so quietly. OK, microphone one, please. Yes. How did you reverse engineer the bitstream formats? So what we do is document the bitstream formats so that tools can be written that are compatible with them. What we don't do is reverse engineer the tooling directly. We are forbidden by our legal advisors from attaching, for example, GDB to Vivado. What we are allowed to do is basically put a lot of input into Vivado and take a lot of bitstreams. And then you do this process of cross-correlation between the stuff you put in and the stuff that you got out. And what you're looking for is every time this feature was on, this bit was set. And every time this feature was off, this bit was not set. And because you put in a huge number of designs and you randomize a lot of the designs that are going in, this correlation approach allows you to resolve that bit uniquely. I'm, however, no expert on the bitstream documentation side of things. John Master has done a huge amount of work on the Series 7 documentation. And Dave Shah has done a huge amount on the ECP-5 work. Both of those guys are here at Congress. And both of them will probably be around the OpenFPGA table most of the time. So if you really want to go into the super detailed about how this works, you can go and talk to them. As well, if you go to the Project X-Ray, read the docs, there's every one of the fuzzers which document various different bits, like the various bits of the logic block, should have a readme which describes what it does, why it does that, and those type of things. Some of the places were being a bit naughty and did not include such a readme. That's a bug. Please log it, and we will try and add it. But definitely, we're trying to make it so that this process is described in a bunch of different places to allow other people to do the same thing on other FPGAs. And so please do come and ask the questions. Please do come and tell us where you don't understand what we're trying to do or how it works because fixing those things is definitely what we want to do because there's no way this scales if only John and Dave are doing the documentation. We need it to be easy that any university student or any person out there who has the time can find their favorite FPGA and do this documentation. Microphone 2, please. Is there any support for VHDL in the Toolchain? Sadly not. There have been a bunch of attempts to do VHDL support in USIS. None have been successful yet. If you happen to work for a company that has deep pockets, Symbiotic EDA will actually sell you a license to a proprietary library that does VHDL. They didn't write that, but it has been integrated into USIS. I don't know many people who do VHDL in the OmbaSource world. It's kind of a chicken and egg problem. The OmbaSource world doesn't support VHDL, so everybody uses Verilog. And hence, the Verilog support keeps getting better. And the VHDL support goes nowhere. It would be awesome if people wanted to work on that. I personally would say you're probably better off switching to Verilog. I do think VHDL is probably in some ways a better language, but it's not so much better that I would suggest spending your life adding support to USIS for it. I mean, you'd get my gratitude if you did, but I can't actually recommend you do that. Is there a question from the internet, Sydney Angelin? Yes. Go ahead. We have two questions from the internet. The first is, would it be feasible to add support for CPLDs? Depends what you mean by CPLDs. Pretty much everything these days, people call CPLDs are actually FPGAs, mostly internally. If you mean, what are they called, something like PLA, logic-style devices, there is some experimental support for that type of device in USIS. I'm not sure USIS is the right tool, but Clifford will probably be able to tell you a lot more about whether or not that's a good idea. I definitely know that the CoolRunner 2, which has some experimental support, was a CPLD, and that does have the Andanor type system, but I'm not an expert on CPLDs. But definitely, like most things these days, that people call CPLDs are pretty much just FPGAs with flash that allow them to basically boot instantly their normally luck designs and have very similar things to FPGAs. OK, first microphone 2, please. Can you explain the difference between Next PNR and Verilog to routing? It seems like there's a lot of duplication of effort between what features are supported and which chips are being supported. So I knew this question would come up, so I actually have slides for this one. So there is a lot of duplication between Next PNR and VPR. That is correct. The first question is, if you just want to know which one you should use, well, the first thing is, which device do you want to use? If you want to use an iS40, I'd probably recommend using Next PNR. The work there is much more stable and production ready. If you want to use Series 7, at the moment, your only choice is Verilog to routing. If you want to use ECB-5, at the moment, your only choice is Next PNR. The reason both exist is that VPR has been around for a long time. It was the academic standard for doing FPGA research. But because it was mainly targeted as a research tool, it wasn't really well suited to targeting real FPGAs, which tend to have little bits of area where they tend to be a bit less regular than you really want to model when doing research about, for example, how big your FPGA should be. Next PNR was started because of that. Next PNR was an experiment to show that maybe you could do a place and route tool from a fresh start and produce something that's useful in a short period of time. The symbiotic EDA team did a really good job of proving that, yes, it was. It has a really cool GUI and doesn't suffer from the fact that it's over 15 years old, and so it's written in modern C++. It doesn't have its own smart pointers and all these other things that co-basers that have been around for that long due. So that's why this exists. There's still an open question, though, if Next PNR is going to hit some type of barrier that VPR has already solved. VPR has been around for a long time and has already solved a lot of problems. It's solved so many problems that it's kind of forgotten about half the problems that solved. It's also been used as the basis for commercial place and route tools before. If you know Altera, the Qortis tool chain was originally based on VPR. That's also been a little bit of a challenge because you kind of look at VPR. It doesn't quite map to the Xylek style of way of doing things as much because it was much more heavily influenced by our Tira design devices. So that's kind of why these tools exist. And we actually think it's healthy to have some type of competition in the open-source space. If you look at GCC and LLVM, for example, GCC has gotten a huge amount better since LLVM has become a viable competitor to GCC. If you look at the improvement in error messages from GCC6 to GCC9, it's been significantly improved. And in some ways, it's probably now better than LLVM. Before that, they just didn't care, and they didn't have the competition to drive that forward. And so that's kind of like a parallel we see here. VPR, in this case, is probably closer to the GCC analogy. And next BNR is kind of the LLVM one. It's kind of the new hot one that's started from scratch with all the learnings. VPR is kind of the older, crafty one but has been around forever. It was also really good to have the academics who are doing all this research into new FPGAs, architectures, and designs to be using the same set of tools that we're using for real designs. And so we think there is also importance in getting the academics to start targeting real devices rather than these virtual fake devices they've targeted for the last 20 years, because that will help them provide better research that we can use in things like next BNR. So I'm sure Clifford will have an opinion about whether you should be using next BNR or VPR. Next, I will give you two guesses about what his suggestion is. But next BNR is only new. It's only been around six months-ish. Hopefully it will stand to the test of time, but we don't really know. So yeah, that's kind of why this has happened. It's also like in the open source world, herding cats is like impossible. I would love to have everybody work on one tooling at first, but I don't always get my wish. So yeah. OK, we have time for a quick question. I think there was one from the internet left. That's already been answered. Perfect. Then we have one at microphone two. Hi. I was wondering, you were talking about legal issues surrounding the reverse engineering of the Bitstream. Are there any FPGA vendors that are willing to collaborate on this project? Or are they generally hostile? There are levels. So there are vendors who are actively hostile. There are vendors who are kind of neutral. And then there are vendors who are starting to think that maybe this could work. No vendor has yet to come to the support of the open source tooling. I would hope that any vendor that does would then be well supported by you guys, because ultimately they care about the number of sales of FPGX. They don't care about the tooling. They don't care about anything else. They care about their bottom line. And so it has to be a profitable thing for them to do. We believe that this is going to make FPGAs way more accessible. And so the FPGA market's going to go grow to 100 or 1,000 times the size it is now. And so even if they lose percentage market share, they're going to have a smaller slice of a much bigger pie and so be making a lot more money. But they're obviously skeptical. They have to report to their shareholders. And so convincing them is an uphill battle. If you have a project that needs a million FPGAs and are willing to go to a vendor and say, I'm only using your tools, only using open source tools, do your part, support it, that would be really helpful. Come talk to me. If you happen to work at a company that would be willing to buy a million FPGAs, please do come talk to me. I'm sure there's lots we can discuss about. OK. Then thank Mithro again with a warm round of applause.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RryRQ1Rr0M", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Hi everyone, this is Chichou and welcome to my channel and welcome to another live stream. Today is November 23rd 2020 and we're doing an open discussion on relationships, the do's and don'ts of human interaction. And we've done a handful of these in the past, they came about because of requests on our discord and during the live streams and I think also on comments on YouTube that people wanted to do sort of talk about relationships and how we develop and what they mean and what happens as we evolve and grow older and change locations, change jobs, change schools, come out of school. You go through multiple phases of cleaning house, introducing new people into your life, letting go of some friendships, introducing new amazing friendships, hard times, good times, bad times, happy times, and all those times. So figured we'll do regular live streams on relationships and talk about what it means to be human, really. Aside from that, while we wait for notifications to go out, sometimes they take a little bit of time on both Twitch and Discord. To let you know who I am, I am on Patreon. Patreon.com forward slash Chichou, C-H-Y-C-H-O. If you want to support this work, if you don't know what this work is about, Patreon is a great place to start. It's layered, there's a lot there. We've got a thousand plus videos on YouTube been doing this for 15 plus years, writing articles, creating content. I don't put anything behind paywalls. Everything's great of comments, share and share alike. And for those of you who've been supporting this work on Patreon from really day one when I open up my Patreon page, thank you very much for the support. It is in large part because of your support that we're able to do this. So I very much appreciate it. And I think a lot of people do appreciate it as well from the feedback I received from people over the years. So thank you. We are live streaming on Twitch, Twitch.tv forward slash Chichou live. Elder God, how are you doing? Hope life is well. Interesting times. We are live streaming on Twitch. So if you want to participate in the chat, Twitch is where you want to be at. Gina, good morning, good morning. How are you doing? For those of you who've been here on Twitch, supporting this work, following, subscribing, using bits, using points, now that we got them up, commenting, liking, and just participating in the discussion. Thank you very much for being here and mods. Thank you very much for the support. Ding Bobber, how are you doing? Do be kind to Chichou. Don't be cruel or unkind to Chichou. Thanks Ding Bobber. And let's say to the rest of humanity, do be kind to others. Don't be cruel or unkind to others, right? Twitch and Discord sent awesome. That was speedy Gonzales style. I do announce these live streams 30 minutes before we go live on Parlor, LoMines, VK, Gab, and Twitter. Hi, finally catch a stream. Glad to have you here. GrantO3, hello, hello. How are you doing? Ding Bobber, by the way Chichou, your compliment on my music this morning was super thoughtful. Oh, brother, that was a great and I try to like it, but I couldn't do it. I couldn't hard it. Almost. Did I get it almost? I tried. We've been a johoff. We've been a johoff. I do it. How do you pronounce that? What's up Chichou? Little sticks TV. How are you doing? I like the shirt. Thanks. One of my favorite shirts. One of my favorite shirts indeed. It was private at the time. It was private at the time. Okay. I love their lyrics, by the way. The lyrics were fantastic. The delivery was really good and it looks like someone put a baseline on it, but I didn't, I was going live like two minutes beforehand. I just checked it really quick. I was like, oh, I want to, I want to hear it, but I couldn't hear it. Do I have to be kind to reset enforcers? No, they are, they, they, yes, be kind to them. Unless they cross the line and you must protect your own, right? Cho Santh. Hello. How are you doing? It's Dutch. Hard to explain. Oh, it's Dutch. I've been to Holland. I try to get into, uh, uh, watch a football game, but it never happened. It was all sold out. Olive, how are you doing? Long time, no see. Welcome back. Hope you're doing well. Yeah, somebody sent me a baseline. Nice thing, bother. Starsky, how are you doing? H-E-Ch-O. How's it going? Doing well, man. Doing well. Thank you. Lonely piggy. Lonely piggy. Snacks. Same question as always. More, uh, no. We're down to our last little bit of olive, autumn olives. I had some with my cereal this morning. I've been having, having it with cereal every morning. So I'm saving the last little bit. We've gone crazy for two months now, month and a half at least. So I'm saving the little bit. Uh, but what I got? Apples and peanut butter. Yeah. Apples and peanut butter, baby. Delicious. I like apples and peanut butter snack. It's super good. And the apples are just local apples. Uh, we get from our CSA and the peanut butter is like organic, uh, like nice peanut butter. It's pretty yummy. Deckman, how are you doing? Rittie, 1,000 points. Ah, my tongue is all cut up. Gina, do support your family members when some cycle starts stalking them. Indeed. Don't victim, blame your family member and show very little support. Indeed. Indeed, Gina. Yeah. For some reason in our society, we victimize the victims or how do we say that as Malcolm Axe would say, uh, he said it regarding mainstream media, saying, if you're not careful, the mainstream media will make you hate the victims and support the, um, the oppressors, right? And our society in some way, you've seen people, people who have been brutalized by others and you blame them for being in that situation or dressing a certain way or saying something or it's very weird to me. It's very weird to me. Didn't mean to redeem those. Oh, Deckman, you didn't need to read. I can read. I can, I can, uh, uh, put them back to you. I'll go into my, uh, uh, the point thing. Uh, just send me a reminder on discord and I'll do it. Olive, long time indeed. Glad to be back. Glad to have you back, Olive. Sean, yo, how are you doing? Do you read a lot? I read some, some flames, flames, flames of war. The victims are the new perpetrators. Fear. People are overwhelmed by fear. That's because they can keep their eyes on the prize. They got lost in the noise. We will be uploading this live stream to soundcloud, soundcloud.com, forward slash chicho, CHYCHO as a podcast and it should be available on your favorite podcasting platform, including Spotify and iTunes and hello, Cheryl. How are you doing? And all the links will be in the description of this video. Of course, gang. Once it's uploaded to the YouTube and bit shoot. And this video, most likely we will also upload to YouTube as well. Uh, but it, we are uploading most of the, all the videos to bit shoot most of the videos to YouTube and in 2000 and early 2021, we should be adding a third, uh, video hosting platform at least. And, uh, we'll see where that goes. And again, all the links will be in the description of this video and we do have a discord page where people are sharing a lot of information and, um, taking part in discussions, right? Uh, just to see how the world is and where we are headed and sharing music and movies and quotes and advice and whatnot. Okay. Let me take down these links. CHYCHO. Fear is one of the lowest vibrations only superseded by guilt and shame. If I'm not mistaken, really guilt and shame is more might be vice versa. Still, a lot of people experience many negative emotions due to all this and don't know how to, how to heal or promote healthy emotions. Yeah. The first thing to do is, um, especially if it's coming from corporate propaganda, if it's coming from centralized power that's inducing fear on you, tune out at a centralized power. That's one of the initial things you should do. If you hear stuff coming out of, I mean, me included, if I induce fear on you, turn me off, right? I try not to. I try to be more strategic and explain how we have come to places we have been and where we are going and stuff like this. But if there's anyone, anything you're consuming that is like fear, fear, fear, fear, fear, turn that crap off, right? Little sticks TV. We're so close to 2021. Doesn't even seem real to me. Haha. Yeah. Crazy. Crazy. Elder God. I don't have any fear. I'm an instrument of retaliation. I should write that down. Fear is the mind killer dune indeed. Fear is the mind killer. Fear is the mind is the fear killer. Ah, that's a great saying. Awesome. A fish named squish. Mine is the fear killer. Knowledge is the fear killer, maybe. Mind is the fear killer. Fear is the mind killer. I don't think that was in dune. Even better. Sheryl likes to. Supermanic soul. Supermanic soul. Hoff. Hoff. Women. Women. Fear is a matter of gaining power for those inducing the fear, right? For those inducing the fear is a way to control you, right? If you're, if someone's bombarding you with fear, don't give them that control. Fear is a matter of gaining power. Yeah, yeah. Olive. Sometimes the victims themselves turn into the bad guys indeed. And at that point, although it was someone else who made them that way, by hurting them, people are responsible for their actions. And at a certain point, there is no excuse. I 100% agree with you, Olive. People make a lot of excuses. Oh, I was abused when I was a child. That doesn't give you the right to abuse other people. Oh, I was bullied when I was a child. That doesn't give you the right to bully other people. People talk shit to me. That doesn't give you the right to talk shit to others, right? You have the right to defend yourself, but you can't go spreading the poison, right? If someone dumps poison on you, you shouldn't go around doing the same to others. If someone's feeling you full of fear, don't go propagating that. Mind is the fear killer, I guess, right? Deckman. What are we talking about relationships today? Any topics lined up, or are we just going to see where it goes? Usually, we just see where it goes. I have a times a laid out things that I wouldn't mind talking about. But then every time I do that, we never end up going in that direction anyway. So I want to be more malleable, more flow, whatever people want to talk about we can talk about. In general, for me in regards to relationships, what I try to do is get the most I can out of all my relationship. May they be intimate, may they be friendship, may they be business related, school, may it be student-teacher relationship, whatever it is. As long as I'm learning and we're growing in that relationship, it's beautiful. When a relationship for me becomes stagnant, and stagnant is not necessarily bad, it's a comfort place you go to and you're familiar with it and stuff like that. But stagnant waters are, you don't want to be too stagnant in your life. You want to keep the flow going, right? The only, as the saying says, the only absolute in life is change. That is the calculus of existence really. So it's good to embrace that, right? Dingvao or Chico, obey out of fear and we will create order out of the chaos we created in the first place. Sincerely, the elites, yeah. And by the way, relationships is not just about relationships between human and human, it's your relationship with institutions, it's your relationship with your surroundings, it's your relationship with nature, it's your relationship with your government, it's your relationship with communities, right? All of that. Chichonians, the sleeper has weakened Dingvao. When victim becomes a victimizer, the cycle continues. Yeah, we have to end that. We have to end that, right? What do I do after a breakup, brother? Matthew, mourn if it was initially as a mourning period, isolationism to a certain degree. You're going to have regrets, you're going to have this, you're going to have that. Embrace that, embrace those feelings. But then don't hold on to them, let them go, let them flow through you. And just think about the positive aspects of that relationship and who you were when you started that relationship and who you are after that relationship. Hopefully it is positive, right? If it's negative, ask yourself why it was negative, right? But for me, I try to think about any relationship, maybe intimate or not, right? As sharing our knowledge, our experiences. So I try to learn something from all my relationships and I have in the past and it's beautiful, right? And there is sadness when certain relationships break up, right? I've mourned losses of partners. If you haven't had your heart broken, you haven't loved. If you've had your heart broken, be grateful because you have loved, right? And time, it just takes time, Matthew, really. And it's sometimes very painful, man, very painful. To break the cycle of insanity and abuse, Stingbobber says, and come home to love in the heart is a noble thing to aspire to, in my opinion. Yeah, Dekman, Matthew. Advice to Dekman. I advice to Matthew from Dekman. I know everyone already always says this, but focus on yourself, man. Get active, eat good food, be creative, doing things that are good for you will make you feel better. Yeah, agreed with Dekman 100%. And I appreciate that if you, anybody's going through a breakup, appreciate that this is just a moment in your life, right? Time heals all. It really does. It dulls the pain, right? And introduces new loves and new passions into your life. Let time play out. What you're feeling right now is not going to be what you're feeling five years from now, 10 years from now, even a week from now or a month from now or a year from now. Embrace those feelings, by the way. Appreciate the intensity of those feelings. There are people that never, never have that intensity. That's sad, right? Benjamin Clement quote, quote, What is about relationships that we just don't get? What is it about relationships that we just don't get? I don't know. What is it? Have a date with a drink? Ah, Elder God's advice, break COVID regulations, have a date with a stranger. Free as such, free as such, free as such. Hello from the home office, Gicho. Cool, Leo. How are you doing? I heard you were working out at home. Fantastic. No driving nowhere. Ding Bobber. I've heard of people lowering, lowering a mask to drag a cigarette, then lifting the mask back up. Like, I don't know. It just seems silly. Weird, right? Well, maybe they blow the smoke out of their nose, but then you have to cover the nose anyway. I don't know. Weird. Island King Divinity. How are you doing? Chico. Hey, Chicho, it's been a while. Finally able to catch one of your streams. Awesome. Glad to have you, Island King. Welcome, welcome, Olive. Making friends is difficult for me. Find it hard to figure out what to talk about to new people in my life, except when I'm drunk. Then I'm very talkative, but I can't go around and drink all the time. No, any advice for someone who is quite shy? Olive, you don't necessarily have to be talking when you're with someone, right? Quiet time is good. Being just in the presence of someone that you like is a good feeling, right? So if they're new shirt, you need to break the ice a little bit, talk about, you know, just to see who they are and whatnot, right? You can talk about music, movies, food. Food is huge, right? If they're not into food and you're not into food, then music, movies, entertainment, books, you know, what they like to do as a pastime, go for a walk. One of the things I've done in my life when I'm meeting new people, like really, this sounds, I don't know if it sounds weird or not, but for me, I go on walks with people, right? If we're meeting new, I say, Hey, listen, I'm going to go for a walk. Want to come along? Sometimes people think I'm going to go for a half an hour walk. I've gone on walks with people brand new, right? That sometimes we only met once, maybe because we went on such a long walk. They're like, that guy's crazy. I'm going out with that guy again. But there's been times where I've met new people and we've gone on a walk like for four hours, just walking beside each other through neighborhoods, through the city and just talking, right? Pointing out, Oh, that's a beautiful house because you're in motion. So you come across things that you see that are interesting so you can talk about them, right? People watching is amazing as well. So those are some of the things I do and all of I feel you. I've known people that are very shy, that don't talk very much. I've seldom been that way. You know, I'm generally very outgoing even though I'm an introvert, I do put out as well. It is exhausting for me when I interact with people. After huge gatherings, I need time alone. There's too much energy around me personally. But and keep in mind, my initial statement holds, you don't need to constantly be talking about small things, right? Chitter chatter. You can just be with someone. And during a walk, you don't have to talk during a walk. You can just walk and appreciate things, maybe in the forest and nature. I personally, I love nature like trails and stuff like that. But being a geophysicist, I've been in nature a lot. For me, that is the jungle. And I also consider the city to be a jungle. So I really appreciate walking around the city. There's a lot more to talk about. Fish name Squish. That time play out is a great advice. You may not make good decisions when you're feeling raw upset. Indeed, indeed. Coolio Olive. Advice from Coolio Olive. I'd recommend getting involved in discord communities for the time being. It's a lot easier and there's a number of communities for every interest and hobby. I started discord book club on one server I'm on. Awesome Coolio Olive. Then you can perhaps meet up some people from those communities in person if they live near you. Think Bobber. The emotional body gets cut open when you break ties with someone who you let influence your emotions in the first place. I quote let because it's not like we choose who we love. It just happens. I disagree with that statement. Suddenly, all the positive emotional situation, stimulation is gone. That part I agree with. But I disagree that I quote that because it's not like we choose who we love. I disagree with that. We can choose who we love. That happens sometimes that we end up loving people out of sheer circumstances. All of a sudden you love this person either intimately or you really really like them. You want to be around them. But you can choose to fall in love with someone as well. Start really looking in-depth into them and appreciate the little nuances that they have. As you get to know them more and more, you fall in love with them more and more. Have you guys ever had someone where you might have liked the person? And then as you get to know them, you start liking them more and more and more. That's falling in love with someone and as you're choosing really. That's my opinion. Squish to all of, be genuinely interested in people and ask them questions about themselves. Yeah, and that indeed for sure. Get to know them, right? Like quitting Oxycontin cold turkey thing, Robert says. It could be. It could be. I don't know. I've never been on Oxycontin. I don't plan on being on it. But sometimes when you're with someone for a long time and they're gone, the void in your life is insanely painful. It drags you down a lot, right? Breathing is important. Breathe. Spend time. I think it was Squish that said, spend time. Get to know yourself more, right? It takes time. It takes time. That amount to all of. I agree with Squish. If people think that you are interested in them, that will make them interested in you. Perfect. Coolio, Ciccio. In Albania, every night at around 6 p.m., everyone steps out of their house and goes for a walk to talk to their neighbors. Really, I don't know if COVID changed that. Those things are largely back to normal for them last I heard. But it's one thing I'm really looking forward to. That's fantastic. Coolio. That's super cool. Dingbobber, advice. Use this as an opportunity to heal those shadow emotions that are not popping up for you. Not bad. Walking for four hours, that's at least 10 miles. Yeah. I've gone, man, one time I won't want to walk on a first date with someone and it was the only date with this person. We just met online. We went for a walk. We went for an eight-hour walk. Just talked. It just happened that we needed to cross paths for one day and we went for a gigantic walk and that was it, right? Then talked about, I don't know, everything and anything. She was having certain, anyway, it was interesting. Olive to squish. That's the thing. I'm more of a listener, but at a certain point people want you to say something and I just find it hard. You know what? Olive, just be straightforward with them. Ask them what they would like to know about you. Directly ask them, what would you like to know? Ask them if they want to know what your favorite movie is. You'll tell them music, what you love to eat, some of the good you've done, some of the bad you've done, some of the painful stuff you've done you wish you didn't do. Don't share that. Don't share that with people you've met in you. Sometimes don't share that with anyone ever again, right? Buried that deep and let it go. Sort of. Cheryl, while on the road for a survey with a young colleague last week, she apologized for not talking very much. I felt badly because I wasn't talking either. The mutual apology sparked a great discussion about the benefits of a companionable silence. People rush to feel a sound void, especially when you don't know people well. Yeah, I'm with Cheryl. And that's the saying that goes, I've read this quote somewhere, what's music, right? And people give different definitions. It's a way to speak to the spirit and stuff like this. But music, I've heard one person say, I can't even, I can't even attribute this to anyone because I don't know who it was. They said music is the silence between the notes, right? So music is the silence between the notes. Conversation is the silence where being with someone is a silence between the conversation or something, right? Silence is powerful. Thanks. I'll give it a try, all of Sister Kulio. Cheryl, but when both or all are aware that it's okay, if it's comfortable, it can be amazing. Just being aware of and enjoying their presence can be huge and helpful. Yeah. I'm 100% with Cheryl on this, right? Cheryl, I actually find it flattering when someone is comfortable in silence around me. I used to be a sound void filler myself, admittedly. Oh yeah. Kulio, I've been around people like you. It could be very noisy. That meant all of, it's an old trick, but ask the other person a question you like them to ask you. If there's a topic you're generally comfortable talking about with anyone, ask them a leading question about the topic, and they might finish with something like, what about you? And then you have set yourself up for a comfortable topic. Great advice deck, Matt. And by the way, Olive, you mentioned drinking. You become more talkative when you're drinking. Reduce your drinking. Become more comfortable in your shell when you're not drinking, when you're around other people. And like seriously, it's very difficult to do all of, like I've gone through it myself, right? Very difficult to be around people that are drinking and you're not drinking. And, but try it out. It'll challenge you. Okay. Ding-ba-ba-chi-cho. I suppose that's true. I was mostly coding Jamie Lannister, haha, from Game of Thrones and my, haha. Awesome. I'm capable of Elegant. I'm capable of talking to complete strangers right off the bat. You just need an icebreaker for some people. Yeah. Matthew, it really was a phenomenal breakup. We're both students and she has a lot of trouble, troubles, and it became too difficult for us this year. I think that's why it sucks so much. Previously I'd fallen out of love big time before the end, but this time I didn't. It just is not the right time for us. Yeah. Matthew, I feel you. I've been in those relationships. It just wasn't the right time. It just wasn't the right time. And there's nothing you can do about it, right? Maybe your paths will cross again. Like my partner right now, the first time we met each other was 20 years ago. We didn't get together until nine years ago. Ding, Robert, Chichou. I meant Oxycontin, which is the cuddle, cuddle brain chemical or the love chemical. All toxin, oxytoxin. Is that what it is? Tink, how are you doing? Long time no see, man. Oh, hi, Chichou. How's it going? Doing good, Tink? Hope you're doing well and staying safe, brother. Hello, God. I have a void right now. I've recently lost my greatest love. The cider keeps texting me now. Sure. 100% Culeo. That said, the struggle not to feel silence in text, weather in chat, discord, elsewhere, more than in real life out loud. It's such a weird contrast for me. I think it's hard to have the same presence as you would out in the world. I get depressed when studying. What to do about it? Find things that you love studying. Listen to music while you're studying. Go to an amazing place to study. Like if you're studying something and you're finding a depressing sitting on a table chair, sitting on a chair, working on a table, working on a table, if you're in a room, go to the beach and study there. Gtex2k. I have a playlist on my YouTube channel called How to Study. Okay. It's some of the tricks I've used in my life or some of the tools I use in my life to learn new things. Right? Take a look at that playlist. There's a whole bunch of videos on there. One of the videos talks about, specifically what I just mentioned, find your happy space. If you get depressed studying in one location, go somewhere else in nature maybe and study there. Go to a cafe and sit down at a cafe and study your work there. You won't be as efficient, but the depression, the association of a bad feeling to the studying will slowly go away. So what you want to do is introduce, train yourself, program yourself to associate whatever it is you're studying with being in a place you want to be, in a happy location, doing a happy thing. And slowly what you're going to find out is you can start studying that thing that you're studying while you're at home, while you're sitting on a table, where you're sitting at a on a chair, on a table studying. Right? So you want to start associating love with studying. I know it sounds weird, but it works. Right? I created a lot of content, a lot of the math videos that you see. I laid a lot of that stuff out at the beach, at the park, in cafes, in restaurants, at bars. Right? Kulio Chicho. I may have mentioned on walks as well. I may have mentioned this previously, but I once did a 30-day challenge when I talked to strangers every single day for 30 days. Wow. If I skipped a single day, I'd start over from day one. Oh my God. I kept the journal of my interactions and had to start over two times, but I did accomplish it and it has basically permanently cured me, cured my old fear of approaching people. Very cool, Kulio. I've never heard about this. How far behind chat am I? Gang, I'm going to scroll down. Apologies if I'm going to miss stuff. And I'm going to look at stuff that says Chicho on it right now. That way I can get caught up with chat. I don't want to fall too far behind. What's your thoughts on falling in love with people? Do you think it's only built up over time or perhaps when you get to know the right person? I'm not feeling a spark with my girlfriend of six months and feel guilty about it not being there. I think it can happen both ways. You can fall in love with someone right off the get go, or you might have to spend time with someone for a long time, for a while, to fall in love with them. And that builds, right? Hopefully it builds anyway. Six months is a while if you've been with someone. I don't know how often you guys meet. Some people say, oh, I've been seeing someone and they only meet once a week. So that's the same. If you say you have a girlfriend or boyfriend or a partner that you only meet once a week and you've been dating for a year, that means you've been dating for 52 days. And then you meet someone that says, oh, I've been with someone for two months and they meet every day. They spend every day together. That's the same intensity of a relationship as a full year. Sort of, right? Because you could be texting and messaging. But for me, when it comes to relationships, I like to, I don't like to, I like to spend a lot of time initially together. And later on as well, probably, if I like them, but initially together, that way you optimize the amount of time you're spending with someone to see if you will like them, if you will fall in love with them, you will like their, the way they move, right? So I'm not sure how long six months is for you. If you see them every day, if you're living together, then that's a long time to be someone without feeling that powerful love, right? So I, you know, that's, that's all I can say if I, you know, we don't know anything else. Other people might have other advice. Squish, as Chicho said, though, some people are more introverted and social interactions can be draining. Society tends to price extroverted characteristics, which can make introverse field deficient. But one is not better than the other. There's nothing wrong with not always wanting to interact with other people. Yeah. And that's what Squish said. Everyone listen to what Squish said, right? Like, I can honestly tell you, I may seem fairly social to everyone and I am, right? But there are times where I don't interact aside from students, even in the summertime, if I am very, very happy, not talking with anyone for two weeks, really. I'm totally okay with it. So you can be both. Just balance yourself out, Olive. I've never found silence awkward. Some people even start humming. It's kind of funny. Yeah. And humming is okay. Humming is vibrations, Olive. Humming is amazing, right? I should do, I used to do it a lot. I haven't done humming for a while. There are certain times where I do meditation, I would hum, vibrate, try to get my chest, get the tummy to vibrate a certain way. And that vibration is amazing healing, right? So humming is a good thing. I don't know if I want to be around someone that hums all the time. Be a little crazy, right? But the humming is not bad. Amen, not nightbot. Free Assange, free Assange, free Assange, right? Lonely Piggy, Chicho. I've recently gone through a breakup myself. I did not feel sadness or regret because I had it in mind for a while. I always had to be careful of what I said, what I did. I can never have feelings of my own or opinions during argumentative discussions. After a while, feeling like you have no voice or that feelings don't matter at all, it takes a toll. It was the best thing for me to end it. Turn the page and move forward instead of being perpetually stalled. Lonely Piggy, good on you. And gang, if you're in a relationship where you constantly feel like you're walking around eggshells or walking on eggshells, very careful, that's not a healthy relationship, right? That's not a healthy relationship. You shouldn't feel like you're walking on eggshells with someone intimate or with a friend. I've had friends where, man, it's constantly if you're afraid that if you say the right thing, they're going to explode, right? Maybe I'm guilty of it myself too. I know in regards to politics, if someone says, you know, if someone turns to me and says, oh, Julian Assange is a bad guy, I'll flip out. I'll rip them a new A-hole, right? And there are people that I've interacted with that that has happened and they don't interact with me very much anymore and I'm totally okay with it, right? And that goes for you. If you feel like you're walking on eggshells and something important that you think you're aware of, because to them it might be, they might think they're delusional, they might think that they have the right perspective on what's going on. I think they're insane, they're dumb-dumbs, but that's my opinion, right? But if you feel like that's happening to you, then it's not a healthy relationship or you're completely mistaken. Sit on a table and work on it, Jericho. I know. Greetings, blessings, Dr. Pete. How are you doing? The quote also made me think of John Cage's. I don't know that. I'm scrolling down, gang, to see if there's anything directed towards me. I realize I might be as... Okay, gang. I came all the way down just to catch up and to have an apple and peanut butter. Look at this goodness. Very nice, very nice. Cheers. Squish says, what if you're walking around eggshells around your boss calling sick? Might be time to change jobs. And don't, by the way, right now, as long as you're... if you're not financially secure and you don't have another job lined up. Padre, padre, padre. How are you doing? As far as the introvert thing goes, I feel like there are a lot of us out there that I can only explain as a left hand. There's living in a right-handed world. So the world is more extroverted, just like being left-handed. You will have to adjust to the world, but don't let that stamp out who you are and what makes you special. Southpaws are beautiful, man. They shake things up. They do indeed, padre. And if I remember my boxing stats well, there's a lot of southpaws that do extremely well in boxing because people are not ready for it. It was the most famous southpaw. I can't remember. It was a heavyweight champion, I believe. Me and my ex, G4F, me and my ex agreed to distance ourselves because we kept getting into fights. So after three weeks, she called and I didn't pick up or call back until a month afterwards. And this time she didn't ask for a call back. It's been a month. Should I call her? Are you really Mr... Yeah, if you miss her, give her a call for sure, G4F. For sure, give her a call, right? But be prepared. She might have moved on, right? Put it towards lesson learned. If your girlfriend that you're taking a little bit separation apart calls and you don't answer, give her a call back in a couple of hours. Just say you were busy, not a month later. It's a long time. Call and dead every day. Yeah, if you're squishing every day, no. If you're walking on eggshells around your boss every day, something has to be resolved around that. That's not a healthy situation. Call and dead. AutoBots710 says, did you make that peanut butter? No, I didn't make the peanut butter. Hazardous. HDTV. How are you doing, by the way? I didn't. It's really good peanut butter, though. Organic peanut butter and stuff like that. It's nice. Felix, how are you doing? Felix, not sure if you caught my message. I didn't when you were scrolling, but hey, what's up, Chicho? And everyone in chat, hello, Felix. How are you doing? No, I didn't catch it because I was just looking for stuff that said Chicho Live just to get caught up, right? And welcome to another live stream. Glad to have you here. Bipster. Hey, Chicho, I'm at work and I just listened to the audio. The problem with the other people is that I'm really independent and I don't really need people in my life. Also, there are a lot of people who are going to hurt you and I'd rather be alone. My spiritual animal is a spider, so I feel good alone. Okay, but don't isolate yourself because you're worried about being hurt, right? With hurt also comes love. The only reason you would get hurt is because you cared and caring is not a bad thing, right? So if you're isolating yourself because out of fear of being hurt, that's not as healthy as isolating yourself because you're very comfortable being alone and you don't want to interact with anyone. Not too many people anyway. But we do need others to bounce off ideas and whatnot, and this is fine. You're coming on chat and you can just interact with us and chat while you're isolated in your own space, which is totally okay as well. For me, I'm not one of the people that says you have to interact with other people. Absolutely not. If you are okay in your shell, in your life, just living a solo life, kudos to you, power to you. Just make sure you're not doing it out of fear. You're doing it out of love because you love being alone. Padre. Rocky. Was Rocky left-handed? Left-handed? I forget. I'm scrolling, scrolling, free assange, free assange, free assange. When it comes to relationships, Felix says, for me, my problem is overthinking. I think pretty fast, which is good for some things. I do like mouth and chest, but when it comes to relationships, both platonic and romantic, it can be a problem. Felix, I feel you. I feel you. Learn to slow yourself down. Don't, and you don't need to slow yourself down in everything you do. Slow yourself down in certain things that you want to savor. For example, if you go out to a restaurant and you order an amazing dish or you cook for yourself, you order amazing food, just because you think fast, it doesn't mean you should go go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, eat it, speedy Gonzales style, right? You savor the food. When you have an amazing wine, you smell it and you sip it, right? That's fantastic. Don't chug it down. There are certain things you should train yourself to savor. Eating should be one of them. And usually, sometimes you're in a rush, you want to wolf it down because you need the energy, right? Relationships too. If you enjoy being around someone, you don't need to make that interaction rapid. Just breathe. Enjoy the silence, right? But I guess it depends on the length of the book. Oh yeah, this is the book club talk. Felix, there's a girl in a math class I have tomorrow that I like, but because of COVID precautions in class, I'm not sure how to approach her. Write her a note. Hi, thought I write you a note because of COVID precautions instead of coming too close to you because I don't want to get into your space. But I think you're pretty cool. Would you like to talk? She will love it. Well, or she will go, what a creep. You're on your own on that one. Felix, take Chicho's advice with a gigantic grain of salt. That's why Apollo's trainers didn't want him to fight him. Too much of a wild card. Oh, really? Is that why? In the movie? And Rocky. Richie Shad. Hi, Chicho. My name's Richie and my spirit animal is my refrigerator during COVID. I've gained it in weight. Is that okay? I have gained about 30 pounds. Oh, 30 pounds a lot. Pounds in six months. And I'm stress eating. Any advice for me, Chico? Dude, I feel you. I did go through a period in my life where I did exactly what you did. Stress eat. And I was about 40 pounds heavier than what I am now. Right? Difficult to break. Okay, easy to get into. My advice is it's really difficult to break. But when you feel like eating, drink a big glass of water. Sometimes the sensation of hunger, you get the sensation of hunger because you're thirsty. You need water. Drink a big glass of water. The second thing you need to do is don't eat late at night. Don't eat late at night. Okay, that'll knock. If you don't, right now, if you're eating late at night, stacking late at night, cut that out. That'll, that should reduce at least five to 10 pounds on your weight. Right? Drink glasses of water. Start doing exercise. Start doing exercise. The other thing, if you're going to eat, eat healthy food. Right? Like seriously, like people don't emphasize this enough. Crazy. Healthy food has more nutrients that your body can use to fill that void, the hunger that you're feeling. If you're eating garbage food, that's got a full of calories, full of sugar, full of salt, whatever it might be. Your body doesn't recognize that as food, as chemicals. Right? So your hunger doesn't reduce. You're still hungry after eating this. Right? Healthy food. Huge, huge, huge. So if you're fridge, if you open up your fridge right now, it's full of pop and cake and pizza you bought from somewhere, throw that crap away, put fruits, vegetables. If you're a meat eater, meat that you can eat, that you can cook yourself, that you bought out of butcher. Right? Not processed sausages and stuff like this. Right? Fill your fridge full of good, healthy food, fruits and vegetables and herbs. And slowly do that. It's going to take you time. Time. An exercise is huge. Cheryl, chronic over thinker club present. Felix, welcome to the club. Cheryl, I've been a member for quite some time, Felix says. The tiger butt, how are you doing? Doing well, man. Thank you very much. M.G. M.G. Solo. That's the way I've got to pronounce it. That was beautiful, Chicho. To many of us, including myself, live in fear when it comes to social relationships, situations, and we convince ourselves that everything is fine when in the back of our mind, we know we want to conquer that fear. The day we conquer this fear is the day we can truly be happy with ourselves. Baby steps are okay as long as we improve, we do not have to be perfect. Yeah. Well said, brother or sister, of course. Right? Super spread. Just got to whisper that. I'm the exact opposite. If I'm stressed, I can barely eat. Oh, really, that man. That's not good either, by the way. That's not healthy. Right? Felix, Chicho. Maybe I'll try writing a note. Worst that can happen is rejection, and the short-term pain of rejection is better than the long-term pain of regretting not trying, I suppose. Why not? But please, I hope it works out. I'm all nervous now. I'm nervous. Rich. Intermittent fasting can be helpful. Yeah, intermittent fasting is good too. Don't eat between 7pm and 11am. Good. It prevents you from eating late at night, provides clear rules, and gives you some license to eat what you want during the rest of the time. Although, as Chicho said, healthy food is good. Healthy food is good. And for me, I'm okay with not eating after 7.30pm. Right? But because I wake up early, I wouldn't wait until 11am to eat. I would eat earlier. Right? The tiger butt. Glad to hear that, Chicho. I hope you're doing well. I'm good. Thank you. Ah, there you go. Good, good, good. Welcome to another live stream. Question. How to bag a rich guy, petite female life, become rich yourself? And it depends what you mean with rich. What's your definition of rich? Rich in humor? Rich in social relationships? Rich in knowledge? Rich in experience? I don't know. Rich in apples and peanut butter? I got a lot of apples and peanut butter. I'm very rich. Felix, what's your thoughts on the no fab movement, Chicho? New thing that's beneficial or pseudoscience? I don't know what the no fab movement is. I feel like what's a no fab movement? Rich equals a short guy standing on his wallet would make him 6 foot 3. Really? Man, you could just fill it full of dollars. No fab means stop touching your willy. Oh, is that what it means? What the hell? Ah, that's part of life. No fab has given me so many bans. I'd be shocked if Chicho knew what that even was. Not that I knew the movement existed. Rich in comic books. I'm rich in comic books. Not as rich as some though. But if I stood on my comic books, I'd be really tall. No fans, stop touching your willy. Why would you? It's part of your body. Do you touch your ear? Is there a no ear? No ear thing? Does this make you feel good? Yeah, you know what? It's nice. Yeah, that's nice. Why would you stop doing something that feels good? Right? That being said, there is a certain amount of chi in your life. Right? So be careful. What did Allah God say? I tried that. Only God. Hilarious. By the way, Petit Fem, your comment got blocked. They picked it out. Automod, okay? I guess automod doesn't like mofo. Just a way to practice stoicism, Padre says. Felix, no fab is a movement that believes in abstaining from masturbation, more specifically pornography. I personally think that porn is pretty damaging to a lot of areas of the psyche. It could be, sure. It's like any addiction. If you're addicted to something, kill your addiction. Stop your addiction. Everything in moderation. Yeah, or extremism in moderation. That's my philosophy anyway. Extremism in moderation. Yeah, the abstaining from pornography part probably has some benefits. Probably, yeah. If you're addicted to porn, yeah, stop that. It's like being addicted to anything. Stop it. Right? Dekman, I totally agree. Porn is so bad for your brain. It's like any other addiction. Dekman, it really depends on what type of porn. Have you guys watched some 70s porn? Pretty damn cool. Right? Not that I'm promoting it, as Bill Hicks would say, but I'm not denying it. There's some amazing movies that I've seen that some people will consider porn, especially back when they were made, right now that would just be risqué, right? Oh, risqué movies that were considered hardcore porn back in the day, right? Or porn back in the day, which are pretty damn cool. I agree with porn hub and all that just to a certain degree, right? Because all of that is centralized control. And what you're seeing is programming, right? So it really depends. Look, number one rule. Don't get your information from centralized institutions. If you find that what you know in life, who you interact in life, how you feel about life, all of it has been programmed into your psyche from centralized authority, you need to reprogram yourself, right? It's like social media. If you only go to, if you only get your news from Facebook, you're a dumb dumb. If you only go to Reddit to get information, you're a dumb dumb, right? So if you only get sexual pleasure from going to a porn site, you're a dumb dumb. It's simple as that. Dragons, how are you doing? Hey, Chih-chou, loving the recent content. Been watching a few days after during downtime. Awesome, awesome dragons. I'm going to release the cooking one today after this stream. So I've lined up the next few to release. And the current events that we did is definitely not going to go on YouTube, right? It'll only be on BitShoot. So if you like the current event stuff, you have to watch it on BitShoot, okay? Or watch it within two weeks on Twitch before they take it off. Poor defender. Socrates said you're only supposed to have sex once with your wife in, in, in your whole lifetime. Socrates was a little confused. Coolio. Well, battling addiction is a lot more complex than stop it. But I get what you're saying. Yeah, agree. You know, I'm simplifying the matter a little bit, right? But I can honestly tell you I've been addicted to things, right? And I've been able to break those addictions. And they were difficult, right? But the more addictions you break, the easier it becomes for you to break your addictions, right? So stop it. Kebabs. Sorry, Chicho. I got rid of all my other addictions. What porn is there to stay for me? Well, if it's there to stay for you right now, then, and you know, it's an addiction, then so be it, right? It is what it is. That's fine, right? But make sure it doesn't stay with you for your whole life. Move on. There's better addictions out there or other addictions out there that might give you just as much pleasure, right? That might be less destructive, right? It's better to love one woman a thousand ways than love a thousand women once. Someone should tell that to, what's his name? Lead singer of Kiss, Richard Simmons. No, Richard is Richard Simmons. I forget his name. He was surrounded by Greeks who had sex constantly. I guess he was turned off. He was surrounded in pornography. He lived in the porn world. Caligula for the next movie club. Ha-ha, dragons. I've seen Caligula. It was interesting. Felix Chico. I think that porn desensitizes you to a certain extent. That I agree with. I personally experienced it myself, and that's when I realized there was a problem and decided to quit. Awesome. Good on you, Felix. And I agree with you. It can't desensitize you for sure. But if it's something you want to participate in, for me, I'm an anti-provisionist. People, adults, should be allowed to experience life how they want. If people want to have sex in certain ways, they have the right to have sex in certain ways or watch certain sex for sure. But understand that you are being programmed, especially if that is coming from a centralized institution. If you're watching Hollywood, let's say Hollywood porn, they're programming you. There's a dictate at hand. If you only watch Hollywood movies, you're being programmed. You have to expand outside of Hollywood to really appreciate what theater really is. Watch Korean movies, watch Japanese movies, watch Chinese movies, watch Persian movies. My God. Amazing. There's a Persian movie. Oh my God. Amazing. Watch Arabic movies, watch French movies, watch British movies, watch German movies, watch European, watch Russian movies. Watch African movies. I don't seem too many, but there has been some. If you're in your life, you've only watched movies coming out of Hollywood, man, you got a lot of living to do. You got a lot of living to do. Gang, I'm scrolling down to see if there's anything. Cheryl, one of the keys with porn is understanding the potential disconnect between the appearance of the bodies or display of those you encounter in real life. Not being constantly disappointed that most men and women do not meet up to poor standards in appearance and likely in action. Yeah, agreed. And to tell you the truth, you really don't want your sex life to be only the action you see in porn, right? Like a lot of people that read glamour magazines and stuff like that, if you think that is how human beings should be, you got a lot of growing up to do, right? Kebab, porn gives me ideas to try with my girlfriend. Good on you. Awesome. Okay, I'll stop now. Are you Persian? Armenian, Persian, Canadian. What I've realized about life is that as long as you don't hurt anybody, you should essentially be able to just do what you want. Deckman, 100%. I'm with Deckman all the way. Olive Ciccio. What exactly are they programming you to? It really depends on the type of porn. First of all, it's disconnect. They're eliminating intimacy on a large part, a lot of pornography. The love is not there. It's more of the physical than the sensual, right? There are sensual porn out there, right? There is. But you have to really, it's a small percentage and you have to really dig for it, right? So there's a lot in it, Olive. But some people just want to do, won't want the physical satisfaction. So be it, right? Yeah, Cheryl says to Kebabs, wash together. She might get some ideas as well. Yeah. And Kebabs, don't be afraid if she wants to try certain things out and you might be like, wait a minute, if it gives her pleasure, right? Why not? Elder God, porn for me was a technical manual very much. But in my time, there was not real internet. Thanks, big H. Big H, big H. What's the big H? Big fan of Korean filming, yeah. Filmmaking, Korean filmmaking is powerful. Snake, I do it yourself. A competent judge would have a wide variety of experiences. Yeah. Hello, Crafter, how are you doing? I got no time for relationships. You got no time relationships. Oh, you for sure, you must have relationships. You have work relationships. You have family relationships. You mean intimate relationships. Question, the simp loves me. Should I marry him? I don't know what a simp is. Streaming. He found out I stream any simps to me now. I don't have no idea what simps is. Cheryl to Cabos, but if she's never watched or says she hasn't, choose carefully or in me backfire. Indeed, indeed. And the other thing is you could ask her, have you watched porn? Is there certain porn you would like to see? Have you watched people being intimate or being very physically active together? Punisher Max live. Hello, hello. In your honest opinion, if you break up with someone, would you get back together with them later in life? Is it possible? It is possible. I haven't. Okay. For me, I've never broken up with someone. No, no, no. Not true. I was, I was with someone where she left the city. She went to the other side of the country and we broke up for the period that she wasn't there. She wasn't here and when she came back, we got back together. But we've never broken up and then gotten back together. So I've never done it, but it is possible. I know people who have and sometimes it is much more powerful. Vigage. Hugh Hefner. Elder God. Vigage is Hugh Hefner. Playboy. Man, I kick, I'm kicking myself still from back in the 90s when I had the opportunity to buy a complete Playboy run for $500. It was less than a thousand and I didn't go for it. Some guy had an ad in the paper and classifieds. He was selling his Playboy collection and I didn't buy it. I can't believe it. Oh my God. Every time I think about it, I kick myself. Like, let's say it was a thousand dollars, the complete Playboy run. Playboy number one right now sells in good condition. Sells for like thousands. Man. Not that I would sell it, but it's good to have. This is a guy who cheats on one like a goddess too much. Oh, is that what it is? That's what a sep is. He becomes a kerf. I don't know what a kerf is. So if you choose someone like a goddess, so you want to be, you want your partner to be a dom to a certain degree. Yes. I just generally don't like sex anymore and that's okay, defender. If you don't like sex, you don't like sex. I guess I still like romance though. Romance is fantastic. Crafter. Well, it was kind of a joke, but with online classes, I've got a lot less meaningful interactions. Yeah, in crafter, you're not alone. A lot of people do, right? Like seriously, just imagine being single, which I'm not. Just imagine being single and trying to hook up with someone. Very difficult right now, right? And that's stressful. So don't be too hard. Squish. You can definitely suffer from sunk cost, fallacy in human relationships where it's not healthy working, working, but you feel because you have invested so much time getting to know the person. You don't want to start over, even though that's the right call. Getting out of an unhealthy 10 year relationship was very hard to overcome. For me, I've never been there, Squish. Whenever I've been in a relationship, so when it's gotten stagnant where we didn't enjoy it, we usually ended it. But I've known people where they're in a relationship where it's totally destructive and they stick with it. It's sort of a clarification here. Some people stay in those relationships because they can't afford to break up, right? The cost of break up is a lot, by the way, gang. If people are living from paycheck to paycheck, if you're living a place together with someone and you're paying rent, you're doing all this stuff and whatnot, you don't have enough funds to move out, right? It could be a difficult trap. And there are a lot of people in these types of relationships that, unfortunately, because of the lockdowns and stuff like this, they're going through some serious hard times, right? So we have to keep that in mind. That collection would have gone for so much these days. I know, that man, like a full Playboy run up to the 1990s for $1,000 right now, probably would have sold for like 30 grand. I don't know what it would have sold for. I'm kicking myself, man. My aunt has like 40 plus years worth of Playboys. Take care of them. Make sure she knows what they're worth. Some people dump their collections without knowing what they're worth, right? Oh my God, I might have a few copies hanging around. Whatever doesn't make you money. Don't do it. Ha ha. Simp is a gimp. But watered down for today's youth. Is that what it is? Oh my God. A keff is like a voluntary slave, like how monks are to monasteries. Okay. So basically, being in a relationship with the Dom, which is fine. If you want to be, that's okay. I don't agree with that kebabs. You have to make time for yourself outside of the rat race. That I agree with Kulia. Are monks slaves to monasteries? Never mind. Yeah, I wouldn't call them slaves, but they've taken certain vows, right? There are people who take vows of silence. Apple and peanut butter. Delicious goodness. Oh, almost got it focused in. Difficult. A loveless partnership. That's tough. Indeed, Padra says. Yeah, I got dumped by my boyfriend of two years. I suffered a lot from psychological abuse. I did a witch love spell, wishing for a simp. Be careful what you wish for, because you just might get it. Indeed, a simple week after the breakup. Olive, Chicho. What's the topic for your next stream? The next one is on Wednesday. We're talking about privacy censorship. Privacy censorship surveillance. So mainly sort of censorship and privacy. On Wednesday, I believe at 7 p.m. My time. I've been live. Oh, I've been live for an hour 15. Okay, cool. Introducing internet terms to Chicho is hilarious to me and Kulia. The kicker is, I've been online since like 1990. Right? It's just the social places I don't go to, because I guess my age group or whatever it is, right? But I've been online. I'm online more than anyone I know. Like, like really. But there are certain terms I just don't know. Chicho societal issues. Societal issues or perceptions also keep people from getting counseling early enough to help. Yeah. If something isn't working and you either can't find a way to talk about it, or just don't communicate well, get help. Get help. Free assange, free assange, free assange. Case of simp, anyway. Punisher max. I hate to admit this. I was with my ex for five years. We mutually broke up. Then two weeks later, she's dating someone else. It hurts like hell. Yeah. I know people that do that. They jump from one relationship to another. Punisher, I would feel sorry for her. Because that would be my take. I feel sorry for people who jump from one relationship to another relationship. Because if they live their life that way, that means they will never know who they are. Right? They will never know who they are. If people don't spend time alone, how are you going to know who you are? Right? That's huge. So I'm pretty sure, like Punisher, I know it hurts. Right? But look at it from a different angle. Right? Feel pity for her. And maybe the relationship was over between you guys for a couple of years beforehand. And she just wanted to, you know, bounce out of that. Right? Maybe for you too. Go find yourself a nice squeeze. Right? I can't speak about my experience in sex here, but I have tried the serfdom model. Serfdom model. Oh, I think I know what you mean. The other side of the dom? Squish. If you respect the person and you mutually agree, they want to be dominated and you want to dominate them, that's fine. If you see them as a deficient because they want to be submissive, that's going to be a toxic relationship. It could be a toxic relationship. But doms and subs, it doesn't have to be a toxic relationship. It really doesn't. It could be a very powerful relationship. Right? What's Madre's definition of? I missed it. Naked Gimp. Padre. I like that definition. Naked Gimp. What was Padre's thing? Padre. Simp equals Gimp with no suit. Oh, wait a second. Oh, yeah, yeah. This is my first time watching your stream. This is great discussion. I look forward to more of your streams. Petit Femme. Femme Alive. I'm glad you found us. And yeah, we have really fun discussions here. Sometimes pretty intense. Sometimes nice and chill. We go all over the place. We do comic book readings. We do mathematics. We do mathematics. We do cooking. We do eating. Nek Man. I'll have to tune into that stream on Wednesday. I've been wanting to get your opinion on some censorship questions I have for sure. Censorship is huge right now, gang. One of the most important things that we should be talking about. Olive Chichou. I'd love to see the next stream. It will be 4am for me though. I'll try to drop by regardless. Interesting topic, yeah. It was requested of us. And I'll have that video up on Bichute for sure and most likely on YouTube because it needs to be on YouTube because YouTube is censoring like mad, right? So we'll see. We'll see. Proof Defender. Your previous point was finding a new partner is difficult. Then you said the cost of a breakup is too much. I would have to say finding a new partner is part of that breakup cost. Indeed, I agree, Defender. Finding someone else that you can care about can be very difficult, but very important to find things that you love about someone else that aren't the same as the person you broke up with. So don't do a replacement of, you know, if you like the way they giggled, you're trying to find someone that you're going to like. They're giggles, right? Don't look for those specific traits. Look for things that is genuine to them, to that new person that you're looking for. Aligato Chichou. I will get an Urban Dictionary together on Discord. Okay, thanks brother. Kulio Chichou, la, la, la. Some of this talk has got me thinking maybe we can have a bit chute exclusive sex stream. Oh my god, we could. But I think I have to read Elder God's Dictionary first. Kulio definitely being sarcastic unless it's something you think you could stream on for a couple of hours. It depends. We could, I have friends that are sex therapists and stuff like that. So unfortunately one of them was actually, not last year, two years ago, they flew over from the other side of Canada here and they had a conference here, not a, well a workshop here, sex therapy and they did a whole bunch of sex therapy workshops and we'd sit down and talk about it and stuff like that. And she's a therapist and I mentioned to her that a couple of years ago when they were here, if she would be into doing a live stream discussion and she was, maybe we could do it online actually. Let that, let me think about that for a second, for a little bit of time, Kulio. I'll get in touch with them again. I'm going to talk to them for a few months and maybe suggest it and see if they would be open to doing a live stream discussion with her regarding sex therapy and she's an RMT massage therapist that specializes in releasing sexual energy. And I learned from her just sitting there talking. I haven't taken her workshop but it would be cool. And that I would be okay with loading on YouTube. YouTube is okay sharing certain things. They're just not okay with sharing thoughts, freedom of expression. They're not okay with free speech. All right. Okay, gang, I'm going to scroll down. I'm going down. Thank you very much, Elder Gough for taking care of business. Punisher Max. The thing is, last time we spoke, she was kissing me and telling me she loves me and that if it's meant to be, we will get back together. Oh, yet she's dating someone else. It makes no sense to me. Brother, keep your distance from her. She could be just a user. I don't know who she is. I don't want to, she could also be very confused herself. She might not know what she's doing. So she was confused herself. She wanted you. She didn't know. I personally would stay away from a toxic relationship like that. You don't need to put yourself through that, right? Or allow someone else to make you feel that way. G4F. So I just messaged my ex. It gnaws on me why she called weeks later. Well, because you didn't call her back for a month. She called you, but you didn't call her back after until a month later. You can't hold it against her, brother. Isn't that famous Dr. Ruth from Canada? I don't know. And I used to listen to the Dr. Ruth, not Dr. Ruth. I think so. The radio thing every now and then, the talk show she had way, way back in the day. Petite femme live. After the breakup, I realized after crying the logic of why heartbreak causes sadness. It's not love to the other person. It's the feeling of loss, of compensation, revenge. Telling my ex, I have a new guy, aka my sim, cured the heartbreak immediately. It was amazing. It made him jealous. It was my first relationship. Always your first relationship. Yeah, in general, I don't think it's a good... I wouldn't say I'm okay with making to make yourself feel better. You have to make other people feel bad. But sometimes that is the situation. Right? So, but it is your first relationship. So, that's understandable. Okay. But don't make it a habit of I was, oh, you were abused and yeah, lay it on. Right? But that is on you as well, by the way. If the relationship stayed long time and you justified staying with the person because you liked it that they cooked for you and whatnot. But yeah, if they didn't treat you well, you could do what you want. Exactly. Bipser. Sorry if my message are late, but I think getting hurt and dealing with it makes you stronger indeed. And there are three types of relationships that I see. Family, friendly and love. I think the most painful thing you can get hurt by is a relationship is about family. I told you about my biggest pain a long time ago that my father father do Alzheimer's. They're more, but I'll keep that one. Yeah. Bitser. Family, yes, but love can hurt as well. Friendship can hurt as well. I know people who, in my life, who were extremely distant with their family and they didn't really associate with their family and they considered their friends to be family more than anything. So, you know, the friendship crossed over to the realm of family. So it suits your definition as well, right? But, you know, there's a saying that says we don't choose family. We choose our friends. So families are the burdens that we come into this world with. We have to deal with that and all that jazz. And one other thing I would add in the types of relationships you have. I would also include work relationships. Work relationships are important because they're not friends. They could be friendly, but they're work related. You keep them at a distance. This is only about work. And that also could include relationships that you have that are specifically genre-based, right? Petit Femme. I put a lot of effort, being caring, karma to him. Okay. I hope my simp is rich and provide nothing about super attractive compared to my ex. So you're going with the opposite of your ex. That's okay. Go with extremes. Things are rarely completely one-sided. Things are rarely completely one-sided and usually they're not. Okay. Usually they're not. Oh, my father has revealed himself as a vaccine supporter. Oh, no. I need a replacement immediately. Well, if he gets the vaccine, you might need a replacement immediately, right? Hate to say it. Free as such, free as such, free as such. Bitstorm. Not massively keen on the language simp, to be honest, especially within Twitch context. I feel it just feels negative perception, stereotypes about female streamers and the value of their content. Yeah. For me, I still can't associate with, I'm associating simp with a subdom relationship. That's the way I'm associating to it. I don't know if that's true or not. But for those of you who've been here, you know, I associate words not exactly as their true definition. So maybe I'll have to explore this more. I don't know. It's not really something that is pulling me towards, towards it. Patricia Max. Okay, she showed. That is the best thing I could do to move on and forget about this person who hurt me. Yeah, and it's not about the hurt, because they can hurt you. It's about the lie, right? Like someone can hurt you unintentionally and it's painful, sure. But this person, I'm going to use a word here. Now, don't take it too hard, right? But this person played you. For me, I've had people in my life that have played me. Once I realize they've played me, they're done. Like they're done. And I make sure I let all my friends know that I'm done with them. Like they're garbage to me, right? So I don't know if that's your situation, but if someone's played you, gang, cut your ties with them. G4F. And take my advice with a grain of salt, of course, right? The reason I don't call back, the reason I didn't call back was to process the breakup and we kept getting into fights, not because I like to, but because she has BPD and narcissistic trait. We agreed not to talk anymore, so when she called, I was afraid of getting into a fight again. Our relationship was hectic, okay? But you didn't call back for a month, right? Now you're saying she hasn't called you back for a month, so you want to know why? Toot for tat, maybe? Toot for tat, maybe? It doesn't look like it's a good relationship. I don't know G4F, but you just want to know and know this G4F. Sometimes we won't know. We won't know why a person broke up. We won't know why a person did this. We won't know. You have to be okay with not knowing, especially if you're going to let go of that relationship. Don't let it eat you from the inside, okay? I do think simple is used as a pejorative, more so than sub. Simple equals simp. Sorry. Oh, that's what it is. Simple means simp. Oh, okay, now I'm getting a better definition of it. It's okay. Like in my day or the terminology I know, you call them bimbos, right? Mambo, bimbo. Girl, some people just dated someone, maybe a man or a woman, doesn't make a difference. I've had girlfriends that or friends that were female that dated men, not because of their intellectual dominance or their brains. They dated them because of their physical attraction and was just about the sex and have known guys that have done the same thing with girls. And I've had friends that were in the LGBTQ community, that they had partners that was just about the sex. It wasn't about intellectual stimulation, right? Coolio. Feel free to question the validity of COVID vaccines, rushed COVID vaccines, but please don't become a blanket accident. We'll leave that alone, because YouTube might kill us. Oh, I didn't mean the subdom. My simp literally treats me like a goddess. I am not sadistic. He likes the name. Oh, yeah, I was played by Max, okay? Yeah, being played by a partner, no. That should leave a really bad taste in your mouth, right? And if someone treats you phenomenal, more power to you, awesome, right? By the way, gang, thank you for the follows. Thank you for the subs. I'm sorry if I'm not noticing them. I'm trying to stay out with the chat. Paudre, have you heard of someone being a Karen? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I feel like these memes are meant to divide and conquer. Yeah, in large part. Yeah, Paudre, for sure. But you know, I know people that don't like the word Karen. Some people are okay with it. For me, like, I have friends that are their names are Karen, I'm pretty sure they're not okay with it. But I can see where they come from. But yeah, central power is trying to divide, right? Divide us. Don't let them. Don't let them. That's fine. I'm just pointing out I do think is used derogatory a lot at the time. For sure. If someone has proven to be maliciously manipulative, don't give them a second chance. Sociopaths are real. Sociopaths are real, right? All right, God slang, a man who foolishly overvalues and defers to a woman putting her on a pedestal quotation slang by extension, someone who foolishly overvalue someone else and the first to them putting them on a pedestal. Yeah, I don't know if that's to me, that's not derogatory. I think what do you call it, that could be a real relationship and could be something that both people need. And that's okay to me. 100%. Right. I agree with you 100% Chichot. Thanks for being real with me. For sure, Punisher Max. I wouldn't give them time a day to tell you the truth, right? Like I wouldn't. It hurts. Maybe I would want to, but I would really refrain from it. Padre, when you think of another person, a simple or a caring or whatever, you're dehumanizing them to a certain extent. I may be looking too much into it. That's just what I see though. But the kicker is, Petit Pham says he loves being called a simp, right? Who are we to say that word is derogatory to them? They love it. I'm okay with it. There's a spectrum of simps, Petit says. But then again, like Chichot says, got to call a spade a spade sometimes. Yeah. This is the money stream. Sex ed from Chichot. I don't know what sex ed is. Just talking about relationships, right? All of spayosexual, plural space sexuals, a person who is sexually attracted to a person's intellect or mind before appearance. Oh, is that what it's called? Spayosexual. Cool. And I think, I think that is 100% okay in there. It exists for real, right? It's a trait that you find extremely attractive, more power to you, right? Grow a forest. People cling to trendy rhetorics, simp, caring, lit, hella. Now you guys got to tell me what lit and hella are. What about a vampire? A new urban dictionary word for a maximum supporter? You can call me Karen. I shop at Costco and drive a minivan with my five hyperactive kids. Oh my god, you got five hyperactive kids. Petit Femme Live, more power to you. You found someone that treats you like a princess? Like a goddess? Hell yeah. Right on. I'm super happy for you now. Damn right. Fantastic. Make sure he gives you foot massages and rubs your shoulders and gives you like little temple rubs and brings you delicious food. I need a beer now. Oh my god. Yeah, he literally called me that as well. Princess. Sorcery works yo. I want a beer now. I'm five. Where is my liqueur, man? Squish. Simp can function as a nut premise insult, just like Vim, where you are skipping over the assumption that vaccines are bad or that deferring to women is bad. You assume everyone believes that and then use it as a yeah, any word can be used as an insult, right? I did a honey jar spell. You did a honey jar spell? I like honey. So 69 viewers is the nice number. Do we have 69 viewers? Right on. For an open discussion on relationship that is seriously focused on sex. What's your opinion of COVID vaccine? I wouldn't be lining up to take it. No, they'll have to knock down my door, hold me down, and it's going to take a few of them to hold me down to give me a jab. I would not be taking, putting any chemical in my body that is rushed to this degree. Why, Olive? Because I do not fear COVID. First of all, okay, it is a virus. If it is a virus or it could be a whatever. Okay, we're talking about COVID. We're trying to make sure we load this on YouTube. So, Olive, because I, okay, let me rephrase it, because the data is problematic, okay, I do not believe the information coming from centralized power, not all of it and not neither the information that is dismissing all of it, right? I'm on the sidelines. I want to, I'm a scientist, right? Or let's call me a scientist as I studied science and I did geophysics for 10 years, right? And I love data, right? I approached things from the realm of mathematics. For me, we haven't had enough time played out with whatever is going on, right, for us to make a decision of what it really is. There's a lot of unknowns and someone from a sort of a mathematics-scientific perspective, I think rushing into things creates way more damage than sitting there waiting to make sure we have enough data and information to figure out what's going on. And I don't trust the pharma companies. They're evil. Ah, Cheryl says, foot massage. Guys, without a shadow of a doubt, foot massages are the key to many, many things, many, many things. Temptress witch that controls them. Whoa, cool. Supreme leader of Twitch. Are you an anti-maxer? The massacre. Right now, they passed a mandate in my part. I went to the bakery and I didn't have a mask. And the night before, the government said everybody that walks into stores now, indoors, you have to have a mask. So I went in there to get my bread and the girl working behind the counter and she was wearing a mask. Everyone was wearing a mask. Said, oh, sir, you have to wear a mask. And she knew she knows me. And I was like, oh, because I hadn't heard about it, the mandate and the owner of the place knows me. It's the bakery that I've been, been going to for a lot of years, right? And he loves me, right? And I love him. It's very important relationship that you should have between yourself and your baker. You should love each other, right? Important relationship advice. He loves me. And he goes, turns to the girl and says, it's okay. It's okay. It's okay. Serve him, serve him. So I told her what I wanted. And I said, wow, I guess I can't go to my second place I needed to go. And he goes, I got a mask for you. He brought over a mask, gave me a mask. A good relationship can give you a lot. If people don't believe in vaccines, please don't cough on me at the shop. Yeah. Don't cough on anyone ever, right? Not a good idea. Yeah. You want a proper trial. Yeah, I get that. Yeah, I, I, this is, we need science doesn't work or based on economics, right? Politics, fear, science based on works out with time. You need, you need to run an experiment for a certain amount of time before you get the results. It's just the way it is, right? I've separate issues, but I'll just leave this, yeah, politics on politics. Unless you have a personal relationship with a global magazine. So if you have to show proof, okay, I'm going to skip, I'm going to skip all the COVID talk gang. Hi, this girl started messaging me a few, do, dig, digger, redo, dig, dig, digger, did you redo? Did you redo? Hi, this girl started messaging me a few weeks ago, but then randomly stopped replying. It's been three weeks. Should I message her again? Were you, has she replied to your messages? If she was messaging you and you were replying and then you guys stopped texting and you want to know what's going on, then yeah, message her. But if you've been texting her in that three weeks, constantly saying what's going on, stop texting her. She's not replying when you move on, right? I remember 1976 vaccine disaster in the 2009 dead children of Sweden from the, save that, okay. I'm skipping over these vaccine talks gang. Love your, love your baker. Where can I buy the T shirt? Squish. What is the ethnic background? ethnic Armenian, Iranian, Canadian, free as such, free as such, free as such. Grow for us. Interesting how new, okay, vaccine. I'm skipping, I'm skipping, I'm skipping. I'm all the way down to the bottom gang. I'm all the way down to the bottom. Did you redo as an instrument? I actually play it as a kid in school. Awesome. Awesome. Who's Assange? Oh, who's Assange? Julian Assange is a person, journalist and publisher, that created a website called WikiLeaks, where whistleblowers could release information and we, the public, could read that information and try to hold power accountable. Julian Assange is a person, is a publisher that created WikiLeaks for all of humanity so that we could have transparency of power so that we could hold power accountable. Right now, that power is trying to crucify and they are crucifying Julian Assange. I highly recommend that you look into who Julian Assange is and we do have a playlist on YouTube that goes over some of the documents that WikiLeaks has released to benefit humanity. Very important. Gicho, all this talk of baking. I need a cake. Oh, I need a cake too, Elder God. I need a cake too. WikiLeaks founder Kulio says, who currently wrongfully imprisoned in UK prison. I have been living under a rock. Petit femalive? Yes, it is your duty and because you seem like a seriously intelligent human being and I love you. It is your duty to find out who Julian Assange is and what is being done to him in our name. Very important. All this thoughts. Supreme Leader of Twitch. I've never been in a relationship and I'm 23, yet I feel like I don't really need a relationship right now. Why is there such a stigma in society against single people? Give me your answer. Oh wise bearded man. Supreme Leader of Twitch. Society sucks in that respect. For me, my longest relationship all the way into my mid, late 20s, my longest relationship to my late 20s or mid 20s was like month and a half. I don't agree with people saying, oh, you have to be with someone for a long period of time. Oh, how come you're not in a relationship? No, man. Single life rocks. Enjoy it. All those people that get hooked up with someone else for an extended period of time. I've met people and I knew people that in high school, they were in a girlfriend-boyfriend relationship for like three years in high school. Oh my God, what a stupid thing to do. During the time when they're going through puberty, when they should be trying to find themselves, figure out who they are, they're hooked together with someone else. Not only that, some of those people that came out of high school, they got married right away. Sure, sometimes it works. Really, sometimes your first love is your true love. Sometimes your childhood love is your true love. But man, I've known people that have never been single in their lives, right? Right out of high school, in a relationship for 20 years. And then after you see them 20 years later, they're like, they don't know who they are, what they are, what they're supposed to do, how to think. They just don't know. Gang, spend some time alone. Find out who you are. Okay, don't jump from one relationship to another relationship. I'm scrolling down, gang. Whoa, guy. Cheecho. Cheech. These puttos. Antifa terrorists don't understand economic hopes. Mira simple para antifas, estuvidos ese. Because you know, ese antifa got to prison and they join the gang and they become, this is what you posted last time. Ironical hopes, just like the polar bear and the Bee Gees. Bee Gees rocks, man. Don't trash the Bee Gees. I don't know what the Bee Gees are. Man, spend some time alone. Find out who you are. Indeed, I needed that advice 20 years ago. Yeah, a lot of people, man. I'm sorry it's coming to you a little late, Squish, but it's never too late, right? Supreme Leader of Twitch. I definitely agree with that. I enjoy being single as well because you have a lot of room to explore and learn. Indeed, like I've known people, right? Like there's a party going on and I'm going to the party. I turn to my friend, hey, you guys coming? Oh, I got to check with my girlfriend. What? Oh, I got to check with my boyfriend. What? This is a once in a lifetime party. Let's go. Let's go. They're like, oh, no, they're not up to it. They got a headache. They don't feel good. I'm like, oh man, get a life, right? I knew a couple in university. Check this out, right? So I go to their, when I was studying geophysics, this group that we're living together, right? So I was the sort of outsider. So I went to their house and this one guy there living there was a friend of mine. I knew everyone else from the same program we're in, right? So we talked and a couple of us, three of us, me and a couple of guys, we're about to go out and do something. We're going to go play pool or something like this, right? So one of the guys comes down and he had a girlfriend, right? And his girlfriend was there that we're living together in the house. And I said, hey, I forget his name. I'm not going to say his name. I said, hey, listen, we're going to go play pool. Won't you come and shoot pool with us? And he goes, no, no, no, no, I can't. I go, oh, how come? He goes, oh, I got to go do laundry. I go, oh, you got to go do laundry. He goes, yeah, yeah, me and my girlfriend are going to go do laundry. I go, well, why don't you come and play pool with us and let her go do laundry? She goes, no, no, we want to do it together. I go, oh, you like doing laundry? He goes, no, no, we both hate it. What? I go, you both hate doing laundry. So why don't you come with us? And she can do the laundry. You have a great time. She doesn't, you know, you both hate it. So she won't have a good time. But the next time she can go do something she loves and you can do the laundry. She goes, no, no, no, that's not the way we're going to do it. Okay. Walked away. Back up slowly, back up slowly. Right. Crazy. Forest. Yes, been alone now for 50 years and couldn't be happier. Right on, right on. Felix, do you play chess? I have in the past a lot. I actually brought it out. Me and my partner are going to start playing. I got a teacher really gone into it recently after watching the Queen Gambit. Oh, Queen's Gambit. Dude, three episodes away from finishing it. What a fantastic series. Really loving it. Fiction completely, but fantastic. And the moves, my partner watched it when I wasn't around, right? And then she's told me she watched it. I was like, oh, we're going to watch it together. She goes, I'll watch it again. It was that good. So when we were watching it, when they were doing certain moves, I was like, oh, she would ask me. She goes, oh, Chicho, do you know what they did? I go, yeah, yeah, yeah. I go, do you want me to explain to you what just happened? She goes, yeah, yeah, yeah. So I would pause the video, bring it back, and I will show the board. We'll show the board. And then I told her what was going on. She was like, oh, cool, cool. And she's super excited to play. So I'm going to teach her chess. Gambit on Netflix. And I found that I'm pretty good at it. And I'm having a lot of fun. Awesome Felix. Fantastic. Chess is fantastic. Chicho, you got to watch blood and blood out. Dude, I've seen it. I told you that yesterday. Orale, orale, orale. Keep it to barrio, I say. Keep it in the barrio, I say. How'd it go when BSM to a woman who was chewed and spat out by a child? Yeah, olive. I've never been in a relationship. Now I'm sort of in the beginnings of one. However, although I do like him, it's more platonic for me. He wants something more though. What do I do about that? Don't want to lose him as a friend. Just tell him, look, you're not ready to go there. You want to be friends and hang out. And you hope that's okay with him. Okay, olive, don't be forced into anything. Really, don't be forced into anything. Take your time. And petite fem life says it a little more harshly. Olive, don't open your legs, wait a while until you know them. Do a background check. Petite fem, I like you. I like you. Laundry together, GF4 says. Straight up, straight up. Not that buddy. I know a couple like that. It's a cult. No worries there. Keep it to the barrio. Okay, gang, I'm scrolling down. Sorry if I miss stuff. Oh, we're almost at the two hours. We got to call the stream for scooper. I really love this. But great conversation, gang. Great conversation. A good idea. What did olive say? Cheryl, for now, it's a maybe. He knows. I've told him. Awesome, olive. You know where it's at. Take your time. Go slow. Take your time. Go slow. In my time, we call this, uh, that's Elder God. I'm not going to say that word. But if I'm associated with a better terminology than that, God, I missed you all the, all this, but what you just said, man, that's the term I know. And I know, I know that term in Farsi as well, in Persian. In Persian, what you said, I'll tell you what, I can't say it. I won't say it. I won't say it. But I know it in two different languages. So now I have a really good definition of what a, what a simp is, but I don't associate it with that. Felix, about 10 minutes ago, my chest rating passed 1000. I've only been playing for a week, so I'm pretty happy about it. Awesome, Felix. Awesome. Gang, thank you for being here. Great stream, great conversation.

You've been here, you've experienced Africa. If you have a message for them all, that message be. I would say do it. Just do it. Plan. But just come out and do it. Any regret so far? None. I want to say it's a pleasure reaching you and thank you so much for inviting me into your shop and it's moving to offer them now a movement. You know I think it's it's just time it's just the time because everything is just coming together. It's like a dream it's you know it's just it's just something that you just wondered to yourself how did this happen but there's more to this than we can actually see there's something else going on there's a vibration going on there's something much more powerful than any of us you know this is not a coincidence this is not a casual move this is something else that is going on events that are occurring people waking up realizing that you know Africa has so many opportunities a place to be persons who are like yourself who are going making us more aware of what Africa has to offer. If you ever watch my first episode on Namibia I stated vividly that Namibia is Africa's most underrated country you know why I said that because Namibia is not what I expected so I think it's all coming together. What really inspired you to move to Africa? That's a great question. It just kind of happened during the quarantine somehow watching lots of lots of YouTube videos on Africa I don't know why it just happened that way. You know when things just come in your thread you just start so I consumed a lot and then I got the idea from one of the I guess influencers they said you know before you move in you need to visit first you know so I said why not just go ahead and visit just go ahead and do it and so I just scraped everything up together went ahead and did it I came here and to Gambia to the Gambia and it was a very good experience. I want to move to Africa and try it I mean I'd rather go ahead and do it than 20-30 years down the line I wish I had you know. So how long have you been here long? I arrived here at the end of October of 2021 so not that long for months. And within a short period of time what have we been able to establish in the Gambia? Wow I have opened this business that we're sitting in and it's called Oasis Grocers and Emporium and I've been here since January of open for months so it's I'm getting accustomed to the flow of how things occur here in the Gambia and learning about you know getting my inventory and those things that you know basic for putting the business together. Is it like a wholesale purchase or you can't buy one and just walking and buy one and go or it's a whole sale. You're just walking and buy one and go. Just like a mini market and Emporium if you you know once you I can take it around it's not just food or your household goods I also want to have crafts in here maybe some items that I gently used and bring them here as well so that's the Emporium portion of it you know you don't know what you can find. Remember what really inspired you to start something like this in here. Desire to open a grocery store and for what I was like what did it come from I was like where did that come from and then I remembered that from my family on my mother's side they had a store and I don't call it same kids and it was like the main grocery store really back back way back in the day I guess you could say the 50s or so something like that. So I'm thinking maybe it's just my blood to be a merchant I don't want to do that. Is it safe to live in the Gambia? Walk everywhere catch the taxi sometimes it's night so I don't feel like something is going to happen to me. You still have to be aware I mean that's just normal but it's pretty safe. Cost of living is it expensive to live in here? I think it depends on the person I think if you want to look at cost of living if you're looking at housing that's really a major reduction because you know everything you pay for everything up front and so that takes the stress off of you know I'm going to meet my mortgage I'm going to meet my rent for those of us who may be in a situation and that is done it's clear and when you look at even though it's big up front to pay monthly it's not that much. My other thing is electricity that depends on the person I don't spend that much on electricity and you pay it beforehand so you kind of think about it. I don't have a water bill yet so I can't tell you about that. Internet is internet you know you're going to pay for that but I think all in all just the way things are operated it makes you take pause and think do I really need this so you can start seeing the benefits of it. So in a word yes it's more economical but it all depends on you. What has been your best challenges you moved to the country? The first thing that came to my mind is getting around not that it's difficult but when I first came I was kind of spoiled because I had a taxi driver that I connected with he gave me his card and when I needed to go something he was very punctual and you know came pick me up etc etc so it was like I lived the taxi life but not the same as you know standing out there and you got to jump from taxi to taxi to taxi. So if I had to say that that was challenging I can't really think of anything that's major challenging I can repeat some of the same things that people say but it's not that challenging for me. Someone said I should ask whether living in Africa are you living or surviving? Oh I think I'm living. You're just living yeah it's not just surviving and I think you also have to plan because that's a viable piece yeah that can exist if you don't if you don't plan if you just move on emotions and sometimes we do that I understand the feeling of wanting to go back to Mother Africa. Oh my god that's fine but you got to gauge am I just moving on emotions only or am I going to use my rational the rational as well you have to plan how am I going to sustain myself organized you know so. My final question what are the kind of opportunities that do you think the diaspora returning in here can grab as soon as they get to the continent? I think anything you wish for really I know a lot of times in the states we say we need to unify and come together and keep our dollars together this is where it can actually play out whatever idea you have or whatever skill you have this is just like a you know in Gambia I think on the whole I'm sure but specifically talking about Gambia it's a place where you can actually try it out and then you have a community of persons here who understand what you're trying to do. So that's folks who can patronize not just support but patronize you have a wonderful family of Gambian people local people who are open and welcoming here so you're just in a very good space to try whatever it is that you want to and you don't have to start out big you can start out little with whatever whatever you just try it. Do you think I need a lot of money to start up a business in Africa? If you want to start a sanitation business that might require some big funds a big transportation business those are things like infrastructure things that require lots but no I think if you like here in Tafmati Bumal like in Bufi Gardens you pay your monthly rent which is not very expensive you buy your supplies or your things that you might ship and bring with you anyway and you can just begin so it's not anywhere close if I were to do this in the United States it would take 10, 20 times as much to invest I believe or from what I research than what I invested here. As I said this is Oasis Grosso's Emporium because we deserve the best okay and I say we deserve the best because their little stores of other folks like in the states for example and it might be in the black community and they don't value us. You're going in it's dusty and it's old stuff and I say that's why I say Oasis Grosso's Emporium because we deserve the best okay. So in here I have different items if we look behind you to the right we have our personal items and we have bathroom tissue your deodorants and your fresheners and your shampoos etc. On this front table which I love this is just a mixture of items that we have this is the Emporium piece okay. We have school supplies, different books related to education, craft, we have some beautiful crochet bags and hats and then this book over here which is dear to my heart. If I can give a shameless plug before I let you go I'm going to teach you myself. Seven tips for bringing out the reader in your black child. I wrote it myself so that's why I'm going to give a little plug on that. So over here we also have some of that what I want to put here are the things that you would grab for baking, grab for lunch, grab for dinner. So the shelves aren't totally full yet but I'm going to continue to fill them up as I progress because I've only been here one month. Over here is your quick grab stuff. You know your water and your drinks and over here is your snacks. This is quick grab here. Quick grab. How much is in the water? $20. $20. And then your little snacks over here are something really quick. So I want to see if I have $100 and see what can I grab in here. I just grabbed water. $20 is gone. $40. $60. Yeah. Okay. That's really nice. $100. You know, we need to support our own. This is the only money that I have in my pocket. You are so sweet. We thank you so much. I got to frame that and put it in the water. There are so many Africans living in Russia who are looking forward to visit both to the continent. You've been here. You've experienced Africa. If you have a message for them, what would that message be? I would say do it. Just do it. Plan. But just come on out and do it. Any regret so far? None. You didn't even tell me your name? My name is Janaki. Janaki. Janaki. I want to say I'm to Janaki. Thank you so much for everything really. I appreciate your time and time. You know what? I want this shop to be a diaspora shop. Or maybe if you are watching this video and even from the Gambia. I want you to shop here. And you know how I always say, it buy force to support an African business. So this is located right here at... The Bruford Gardens Taft Mediba Mall. It's right on Coastal Road. And we're in booth number 16. And if you would like, you can also see a little bit about us on my website. It's www.aquariusschoolforkids.com. And when you go on the shop section, click the Gambia. And then you'll see a little bit about the store. Thank you so much for talking to me. Thank you so much Brother Wodemaya for taking the time out to just visit a humble shop. Thank you.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RZMpjKSAmc", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Today I'm coming to share with you my first collaboration, sorry for my voice, I don't feel well last few days. I kind of signed up for my first collaboration ever and I already screwed up and I'm really very sorry for that. I a little bit messed up with the dates, my video for this collaboration supposed to be posted at Saturday. I forgot to check out this list, I didn't receive properly notifications, it's just because my computer doesn't work really well with Facebook. I'm going a little bit late with my project for this collaboration, but I would like to to you to have a look on all these channels. This is collaboration hosted by Rachel, Rachel is owner of YouTube channel Rach and Bella Kraft and here are the names who are going to be making project for this collaboration. And this should help to new channels, new artists in our family to get more views to get bigger audience. So please go to have a look, I will put down below link for Rachel's channel just to make sure you know where to go for all informations. I'm going to quickly show you what I have created and I also have for you tutorial for the base, for this journal, how you can make the base. I didn't film how I am decorating the base with the pages but you can imagine that, just glue pages on the base. So we have been provided with digital kit in boho style, I found myself that I'm not too good with boho style with so many colors. So I choose blue line of the papers which were provided to us. So I'm going to open my little journal. This is by the way kind of inspired by those crossbody bags which should have here on the bottom those tassels. So I think I'm going to just be quiet and quickly show you what you can expect as a base. Those papers have been provided by Rachel as well. So this is the cover and we do have there this little journal. You know it is made from file folders and there is so many openings and I really love the cascade of these pages. And it's very easy, it's very easy and there is so many pockets. So this is what I have created. I know this needs to get a little bit some kind of tuning to make it the way where it can be called boho. I found myself that I'm not too much into that too blinky style. It's just something that I don't know how to do. So I hope this creation it's good enough to call kind of on the way to boho style. I have to say I did enjoy very very much to create with these beautiful papers. They do have gorgeous colors and I'm so happy I did join this collaboration. You will see there are so many beautiful projects and there is so many names I already know. So I can't wait to see their projects for this collaboration. And as I said I'm very sorry for delay with my project. Now the tutorial will come and as you will see it's really easy to follow. I hope you will enjoy it and you will have a fun. For creating this beautiful file folder journal you will need to take four pages. You will need to take four of file folders. I'm going to be using two file folders with this middle tab and two file folders with this side tab. These you can cut straight away in the size seven inches. So move it on seven and cut it. Keep this for your tabs. The file folder with this middle tab. If you want to keep that middle tab in the middle you need to cut this file folder. The folder is eleven and one quarter eleven and five eighths of inch long. So you will need to cut it two and what is it? If you want to have the size equally so between two and one quarter and two and three eighths. And cut. And again from that opposite side again flip it and move it between two and one quarter and two and three eighths. Just between them and you will get seven inches in length. So with this cutting you will have base seven inches here. So once you do have your file folder scattered in the size you just need to start to fold them and that folding is really easy. You're going to grab the side which is shorter and you're going to fold this longer part to the middle. Like this. Take your bone folder and burnish to make that fold nice and crisp. Flip it over and now this one you're going to fold exactly much this fold here. And burnish. With that you do have beautiful cascade of pages. You're going to grab next one and do exactly same. Again with that longer side on the shorter side of your file folder, a longer side of that cut. Just fold it to the middle and that opposite side much the fold you just created. Same is with these in the middle of the folders you're going to grab this shorter side and fold these longer edges to the middle. Flip it over and then much fold you're going to create now with the fold you created before. So you do have your top pages done. Now if you don't like these sharp corners just grab your paper punch and punch these corners. I'm going to be using this middle corner punch and punch all these corners. From the left overs you can create your extra tabs. So measure your foldings and then decide how long tab you want to have. I would like to have here about four and a half tab plus half inch for gluing on the base which means five inches. So I'm going to grab my yellow team cut five inches long piece from one side cut five inches long piece from opposite side. This I can use in the middle, sew it in there in folds. So this one can be sewn maybe here and create another steps. And these I'm going to grab this corner, take my scoring board and on that five inches it's here. I'm going to score half inch here and that I will use for gluing this piece somewhere in my miniature. Maybe like this. So I'm creating kind of like cascade. Same with this one where there is this decorative edge I'm going to punch the corner on that opposite side. This is five inch side and again I'm going to score half inch which I will use to glue it in my base somewhere. Maybe here and create these steps. For creating cover for your journal you're going to cut, I'm going to be using the file folder with this middle tab. And I'm going to cut, I'm going to tell you three and one eight, three and one eight from each side. Let me tell you three and one quarter. And just make sure, yes, three and one quarter from each side like this. So I do have a base, I'm going to place this base for cover on my scoring board and I'm going to score. So the tab is on the zero, my first scoreline is on four, four and one quarter, four and half, four and three quarter and five. Then I need to move this last scoreline on the zero and I'm going to score here seven and half, seven and three quarter, eight, eight and one quarter and one more, eight and half. I nearly forgot. So this will be back, backside of my cover. Here these will be kind of like top and bottom spine. And now how to put all these together? So I do have two file folders with these tabs up. I would like to have one file folder with the tab on the bottom. If I will flip it this way, I will don't see this cascade from here and I would like to see that actually. So I'm just going to fold everything the opposite way like this and then I do have it. You have one on the top, one on the bottom. I would like to have one middle tab as a first and then one middle tab as a last like this and all that between here. These are going to be added to my journal here and there. So these I'm going to zone in maybe right here. I think on this one where is short page. Yeah, I'm going to be sewing there one of these. These tabs I can use here to create cascade. One here, one here. And I do have one more of these. So first is here, second with this short is here. So I'm going to place it in there and I do have two more of these five inches long. So one going to be here and another going to be here. And I'm going to quickly show you how you can put all these together. So you're going to take your small tab, put the glue on this hinge on this fold and place it on the spot. You want to see it maybe right here so you can see the cascade. Then you're going to take your second. This is going to be sewn here and this one. Again put there a glue and glue it where you would like to see it right here. So then it's making the cascade here. I'm going to sew this. So just choose the fold where you want to sew it and sew it in there. I'm going to do same here. I'm going to glue this right here and sew this one here on the bottom where I will see that cascade later on. This cascade. So I'm going to place it here, poke the holes and just with easy sewing sew it together. And with the last one I do have here this tab. So I'm just going to put the glue in there. Place it right here and glue it. Now put these together. It's quite easy. You will just glue them side by side with the front to the back of that previous one and you will just put them together like this. So you're going to put a glue. First you need to glue this middle fold and create top loaded pocket. By that you're going to lift up one side. You know this is top of my signature page. This is top. This is bottom. So I'm going to just lift it up. Put the glue here and here and place it down. Then put the glue here on these three sides. Here, here and here. Grab that next like backwards and I'm going to place it there. Match these ends here like this and glue it together. I'm going to lift up this one. As you know we didn't put glue here yet. So again put the glue here and here. We are creating that middle top loaded pocket. And now I want to glue this one. So I'm going to put the glue here. On these three sides here, here. Grab this file folder with the top on the top. Here I do have top on the bottom. And I'm going to place it on that previous one. Again I'm going to match the bottoms and glue it together. I'm going to take last one with the top in the middle. Again it's that harmonic. So you can either glue these middle top loaded pockets. You can glue them at the first separately on each of these folds. Or the same way as I'm doing it here. So glue these two together again. Glue here, here. And here. Place this one on the top. Match the bottoms. And then don't forget that middle pocket. Just open it. Put the glue here. And on the bottom. And fold it down. That way you have created your... Yeah it needs to dry. And I think I forgot to put out. I forgot, see? It will show you if you forgot to put somewhere the glue. Or I did put but not too much. It needs to dry. So do not get the rush. But you will have one, two, three, four top loaded pockets. And you will have booklet like this. With nice cascade. With many pockets like this. With beautiful openings. Then you just will take this base. And of course I will decorate everything first with papers. I will do my sewing and all kind of decorating. Maybe some embossing. And after that I will start to put these papers together. I'm just showing you how you will put the base together. So once you do have decorated everything. Decorated pages here. And glued them together in the book block. You're gonna take this book block. And here it's good to create kind of like larger pocket. Kind of like top and side loaded pocket. So you're gonna put a glue just on the spine side. Here. And on the bottom. And just try to imagine this is already decorated. You're gonna glue it here between your score lines. And here you just need to have some closure. Decorate it the way you like. And you do have done beautiful decorated file folder journal. I hope this was inspirational. It's very easy to do. And it's so much fun. And this cascade of pages. It looks beautiful in so many styles. So I hope you will create your own file folder journal. And that was all for today. Thank you so much to all of you to stepping by and spending your time with me. Have a beautiful day. Take care of yourself. And I will see you soon.

नाम क्यो दिया because here the learner within himself makes the decision to adapt the learning to his or her need because here the learner decides or his responses to choose which path he will choose then the principles see what were the principles of linear programming self-pacing, immediate feedback student testing, small steps these are the three principle of exposition, principle of diagnosis and principle of remediation this is based on all the wrong responses which the linear had left so since this is programming based on wrong responses this is based on diagnosis and remediation i.e. we will diagnose your weakness and then remedy it from exposition we will expose the whole concept first we will expose then we will find out the diagnosis where you are weak and then we will provide remedy these are the principles then see types of frames your zigzag is not going straight this is why branching programming there are two types of frames home page and wrong page home page will have teaching and diagnosis and wrong page will have remediation now see meaning of the concept definition, importance of the topic advantages and disadvantages test is going on till then you are doing wrong negative is going on, then again you are reading the concept and if it is positive then you are going to the other side if the response is negative i.e. when we give wrong answers then it takes us to that frame where we gave wrong answers its explanation is in some simpler language in simpler form so that you can understand it and then we will ask a question and if we give the right answer then we will go back to the frame thats why it is very zigzag and branching is involved thats why it is called branching programming so what are the assumptions based on which principles students learn better if he is exposed to whole content he says that configuration theory of learning is based on thats why he says that when you present a whole subject in front of him then students error helping diagnosis he says that when he makes a mistake then he will know where he is missing where he has not understood then learns better students learn better if remediation is provided he says that you provide remedy when you provide remedy then he will learn better last but not least students learn better when there is a democratic environment so this is what branching programming is after that what branching programming is responses are selected by the learner not by the programmer means whatever your response is the learner will select the programmer will not select the learner will select because he will make a mistake every person will not make a mistake so as soon as we are making a mistake the frame is coming in front of us thats why every learner does not follow one path thats why he is not a programmer but a learner then confirmation of correct responses provide reinforcement he says that when we give the correct response and we get the confirmation then we get reinforcement then wrong responses help in diagnosis of the weaknesses of the learner which are incorrect from there we get to know where we are missing which is the concept because there is so much involved thats why this is not useful for elementary classes used for secondary as well as higher classes and here higher objectives can be achieved sorry higher objectives can be achieved whereas in linear programming we could only achieve the lower level recall recognition here higher objectives can be achieved but here also we are missing what are the limitations knowing weaknesses of learners not on learning here the main emphasis is that where we are missing what is the weakness what is the learner secondly no sequencing of pages it becomes very zigzag it becomes very haphazard and emphasis on remediation rather teaching or giving strength on education what is the weakness infinite branching cannot be provided we can provide remediation but we cannot provide remediation till the end of time or we cannot be anant shakhit branching programming if this is missing then this is missing if this is also wrong then this is also wrong somewhere we have to delimit so we do not provide branching in full for some extent okay what are the methodics methodics programming who is the founder Thomas F. Gilbert based on connectivist theory of learning when you read learning theories we start with structuralism functionalism, behaviorism cognitivism, constructivism social constructivism and then connectivism so the connectivism is the latest theory but it is called as digital age theory so how here Gilbert was working in so here is the meaning of connectivist theory when you search the connectivist theory then somewhere in the study of mathematical concepts its utilisation is also there and you will know in the methodics that generally in the study of mathematics or grammar this branching programming has been started it is a reverse chaining approach see this chain is reverse how it is reverse then sorry then it is based on principles of chaining i.e. we have to keep a frame in front of you in the form of a chain then discrimination i.e. we have to discriminate and then we have to do the same i.e. we have to do the same then we have to discriminate and then we have to do the same these are its principles i.e chaining of response is help in learning it is said that when the chain of response is blocked then it helps in learning to reach up to mastery level i.e. we have to reach to mastery level then reverse chaining what is reverse chaining i.e. we will provide the chain but reverse i.e. from whole to part i.e. from top to bottom from complex to simple then simple then last and completion of test provides motivation to students i.e. when test our test is completed then it prays to the students and frame size is organized in small step but in a reverse chain i.e. in linear programming frame size was very small but in branching in methodics it is still small but chaining is reverse when in linear simple complex complex is simpler okay then there are two types of frames demonstration frames and prescription frames one will demonstrate the concept and the other will get prescription then responses are structured and determined by the programmer here also is structured and who has decided programmer here also wrong responses are ignored main purpose is to develop mastery of the content i.e. the content you have to teach the content on which you have to provide mastery the content on which you have to teach the mastery on which you have to provide mastery is the main purpose and what are the topics for which mathematics or grammar are logical topics and used for higher classes and useful for complex and difficult task so here also elementary elementary level child not primary level child so higher classes and difficult and complex task are useful limitations are retrograsive chaining of stimuli is not effective for terminal behavior which is your terminal behavior i.e. entry behavior when you are entering terminal behavior when you are leaving for that it is not very important retrograsive chaining which is the theme reverse chaining it is difficult to develop such package anyway programming learning is difficult and it is even more difficult to make it because it is simple and complex from whole to part because we have taught it in the same way okay so program instruction what do you understand by program instruction then types of program instruction means software based linear branching methodics and hardware based learner controlled instruction among these we have already studied CAI now when in question of program instruction something is sometimes asked that how you will develop a program instruction material then look at its shape there are three phases what are the preparatory phases first we will do preparation development phase, development phase and evaluative phase i.e. preparation i.e. preparation of preparation phase, development phase and development phase so in preparatory phase we have to do a lot of things preparation is the best and the evaluation is the smallest in preparation first the assortment of the content first we have to think on which topic, on which topic we have to make material then we will describe learners i.e. for whom we have to make then writing objectives in behavioral terms i.e. we have to prepare their objectives or learning outcomes i.e. after reading this material after reading this material what we will learn then entry behavior of the learners we will have to see what is the full knowledge what is its entry behavior then developing specific outlines of content then we will decide the specific outline of content and then designing the criteria test then we will have to tell the testing then we will not send it to the frame then when development phase comes then we will design the frame designing of the frame sequencing of the frame number 1 which is on number 2 which is on number 3 which program material is going to be the branching methodics of linear and then editing of the program we will have to do the editing of the program we will have to remove the fault and last but not the least without any material then first try out the individual then try out the small group then try out the field then we will know what is its shortcomings then we will include it then we will try out the small group then we will know some shortcomings then we will correct it then we will try out the field then our programed instructional material will be ready okay so program instruction done thank you	{ "url":

You can now find support within reach at 1510 Bemidji Avenue near Erberts and Gerberts and right across the street from the bunkhouse. Their signs are not up yet with the organization plans to put them out soon. Support within reach made the move this month after growing out of the old space in downtown Bemidji. We really needed this location for more space. We've expanded twice as an organization and if we really are seeing all the survivors in the area that we anticipate are there, it's possible that someday we could expand more and we needed more space for our staff and for our clients. So we really moved to that. We also moved closer to Bemidji State University so we are can be a resource to the campus. Support within reach does accept walk-ins and they're also open to volunteers.

If anyone had followed him they would have found him directing his steps toward that side of the town which leads to Charnwood. The old gentleman, who was a Quaker, took his way leisurely but thoughtfully, stopping every now and then to see what the farmer's men were about, who were plowing up the stubbles to prepare for another year's crop. He paused also at this and that farmhouse, evidently having a pleasure in the sight of good fat cattle and in the flocks of poultry, fowls, ducks, geese and turkeys busy about the barn door, where the sound of the flail or the swivel, as they there term it, was already heard busily knocking out the corn of the last bountiful harvest. Our old friend, a friend, for though you, dear reader, do not know him, he was both at the time we speak of, our old friend, again trudging on, would pause on the brow of a hill at a style or on some rustic bridge, casting its little obliging arch over a brooklet and inhale the fresh or tunnel air. And after looking round him, not to himself, as if to say, I, all good, all beautiful, and so he went on again. But it would not be long before he would be arrested again by clusters of rich, jetty blackberries, hanging from some old hawthorn hedge, or by clusters of nuts, hanging by the wayside, through the cops. In all these natural beauties our old wayfare seemed to have the enjoyment of a child. Blackberries went into his mouth, and nuts into his pockets. And so, with a quiet, inquiring, and thoughtful, yet thoughtfully cheerful look, the good old man went on. He seemed bound for a long walk and yet to be in no hurry. In one place he stopped to talk to a very old labourer who was clearing out a ditch, and if he had been near he would have heard that their discourse was of the past days and the changes in that part of the country which the old labourer thought were very much for the worse. And worse they were for him, for formerly he was young and full of life, and now he was old and nearly empty of life. Then he was buoyant, sang songs, made love, went to wakes and merry-makings. Now his worrying days, and his marrying days, and his married days were over. His good old dame, who in those young buxom days was a round-faced, rosy, plump, and light-hearted damsel, was dead, and his children were married and had enough to do. In those days the poor fellow was strong and lusty, had no fear and no care. In these he was weak and tottering, had been pulled and harassed a thousand ways, and was left, as he said, like an old, dry kex, that is a hemlock or cow-pass-nip-stork, hollow and dry, to be knocked down and troddened into the dust some day. Yes, sure enough, those past days were much better days than these days were to him. No comparison. But Mr. John Bassford, our old wanderer, was taking a more cheerful view of things, and telling the nearly worn-out labourer that when the night came there followed morning, and that the next would be a heavenly morning, shining on hills of glory, on waters of life, on cities of the blessed, where no sun rose and no sun set, and where every joyful creature of joyful youth, who had been dear to him, and true to him and God, would again meet him and make times such as should cause songs of praise to spring out of his heart, just as flowers spring out of a vernal tree in the rekindled warmth of the sun. The old labourer leaned reverently on his spade as the worthy man talked to him. His grey locks, uncovered at his labour by any hat, were tossed in the autumn wind. His dim eye was fixed on the distant sky that rolled its dark masses of clouds on the gale, and the deep wrinkles of his pale and feeble temples seemed to grow deeper at the thoughts passing within him. He was listening as to a sermon which brought together his youth and his age, his past and his future, and there were verified on that spot words which Jesus Christ spoke nearly two thousand years ago. Wherever two or three are met together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. He was in the midst of the two only. There was a temple there in those open fields, sanctified by two pious hearts, which no ringing of bells, no sound of solemn organ, nor voice of congregated prayers, nor any preacher but the ever-present and invisible one, who there and then fulfilled his promise and was gracious, could have made more holy. Our old friend again turned to set forward. He shook the old labourer kindly by the hand, and there was a gaze of astonishment in the old man's face. The stranger had not only cheered him by his words, but left something to cheer him when he was gone. The friend now went on with a more determined step. He skirted the memorable park of Bradgert, famous for the abode of Lady Jane Gray and the visit of her schoolmaster, Roger Asham. He went on into a region of woods and hills. At some seven or eight miles from Leicester he drew near a solitary farmhouse within the ancient limits of the forest of Charmwood. It was certainly a lonely place amid the woodlands and the wild autumn fields. Evening was fast dropping down, and as the shade of night fell on the scene the wind tossed more rushingly the boughs of the thick trees and roared down the rocky valley. John Bassford went up to the farmhouse, however, as if that was the object of his journey, and a woman opening it at his knock he soon disappeared within. Now our old friend was a perfect stranger here, had never been here before, had no acquaintance nor actual business with the inhabitants. Though anyone watching his progress hither would have been quite satisfied that he was not wandering without an object, but he merely stated that he was somewhat fatigued with his walk from the town and requested leave to rest awhile. In such a place such a request is readily and even gladly granted. There was a cheerful fire burning on a bright, clean half. The kettle was singing on the hog-four tea and the contrast of the indoor comfort was sensibly heightened by the wild bloom without. The farmer's wife, who had admitted the stranger, soon went out and called her husband from the fold yard. He was a plain, hearty sort of man, gave our friend a hearty shake of the hand, sat down and began to converse. A little time seemed to establish a friendly interest between the stranger and the farmer and his wife. John Bassford asked whether they would allow him to smoke a pipe, which was not only readily accorded, but the farmer joined him. They smoked and talked alternately of the country and the town, Leicester being the farmer's market and as familiar to him as his own neighbourhood. He soon came to know, too, who his guest was and expressed much pleasure in the visit. Tea was carried into the parlour and thither they all adjourned, for now the farming men were coming into the kitchen, where they sat for the evening. Tea over the two gentlemen again had a pipe and the conversation wandered over a multitude of things and people known to both. But the night was come down, pitch dark, wild and windy, and old John Bassford had to return to Leicester. To Leicester exclaimed at once man and wife, to Leicester no such thing, he must stay where he was, where could he be better. John Bassford confessed that that was true. He had great pleasure in conversing with them, but then was it not an unwarrantable liberty to come to a stranger's house and make thus free. Not in the least, the farmer replied, the freer the better. The matter thus was settled and the evening wore on, but in the course of the evening the guest, whose simple manner, strong sense, and deeply pious feeling had made a most favourable impression on his entertainers, hinted that he had heard some strange rumours regarding this house, and that, in truth, had been the cause which had attracted him thither. He had heard, in fact, that a particular chamber in this house was haunted, and he had for a long time felt a growing desire to pass a night in it. He now begged this favour might be granted him. As he had opened this subject, an evident cloud and something of an unpleasant surprise had fallen on the countenances of both man and wife. It deepened as he proceeded. The farmer had withdrawn his pipe from his mouth and laid it on the table, and the woman had risen and looked uneasily at their guest. The moment that he uttered the wish to sleep in the haunted room both exclaimed in the same instant against it. No, never, they exclaimed, never on any consideration. They had made a firm resolve on that point which nothing would induce them to break through. The guest expressed himself disappointed, but did not press the matter further at the moment. He contented himself with turning the conversation quietly upon this subject, and after a while found the farmer and his wife confirmed to him everything that he had heard. Once more then, and as incidentally, he expressed his regret that he could not gratify the curiosity which had brought him so far, and, before the time for retiring arrived, again ventured to express how much what he had now heard had increased his previous desire to pass a night in that room. He did not profess to believe himself invulnerable to fears of such a kind, but was curious to convince himself of the actual existence of spiritual agency of this character. The farmer and his wife steadily refused. They declared that others who had come with the same wish and had been allowed to gratify it had suffered such terrors as had made their afterlives miserable. The last of these guests was a clergyman who received such a fright that his sprang from his bed at midnight, had descended, gone into the stable, and, saddling his horse, had ridden away at full speed. Those things had caused them to refuse, and that firmly any fresh experiment of the kind. The spirit visitation was described to be generally this. At midnight the stranger sleeping in that room would hear the latch of the door raised and would in the dark perceive a light step-enter and, as with a stealthy tread, cross the room and approach the foot of the bed. The curtains would be agitated and something would be perceived mounted on the bed and proceeding up it just upon the body of the person in it. The supernatural visitant would then stretch itself full length on the person of the agitated guest and the next moment he would feel an oppression at his chest of a nightmare and something extremely cold would touch his face. At this crisis the terrified guest would usually utter a fearful shriek and often go into a swoon. The whole family would be roused from their beds by the alarm but on no occasion had any traces of the cause of terror been found, though the house, on such occasions, had been diligently and thoroughly searched. The annoying visit was described as being by no means uniform. Sometimes it would not take place for a very long time so that they would begin to hope that there would be no more of it but it would, when least expected, occur again. Few people of late years, however, had ventured to sleep in that room and never since their forementioned clergyman was so terribly alarmed about two years ago had it once been occupied. Then, said John Bassford, it is probable that the annoyance is done with forever. If the troublesome visitant was still occasionally present it would, no doubt, take care to manifest itself in some mode or place. It was necessary to test the matter to see whether this particular room was still subject to so strange a phenomenon. This seemed to have an effect on the farmer and his wife. The old man urged his suit all the more earnestly and, after further show of extreme reluctance on the part of his entertainers, finally prevailed. The consent once being given the farmer's wife retired to make the necessary arrangements. Our friend heard sundry goings to and fro but at length it was announced to him that all was ready. The farmer and his wife both repeating that they will be much better pleased if Mr. Bassford would be pleased to sleep in some other room. The old man, however, remained firm to his purpose. He was shown to his chamber and the maid who led the way stood at some distance from the denoted door and, pointing to it, had him good night and hurried away. Mr. Bassford found himself alone in the haunted room. He looked round and discovered nothing that should make it differ from any other good and comfortable chamber that should give to some invisible agent so singular a propensity to disturb any innocent mortal that nocturnated in it. Whether he felt any nervous terrors, we know not. But as he was come to see all that would or could occur there, he kept himself most vigilantly awake. He lay down in a very good feather bed, extinguished his light and waited in patience. Time and tide, as they will wait for a no-man, went on, all sounds of life ceased in the house. Nothing could be heard but the rushing wind without and the bark of the yard-dog occasionally amid the laughing blast. Midnight came and found John Bassford wide awake and watchfully expectant. Nothing stirred, but he lay still on the watch. At length, was it so? Did he hear a rustling movement, as it were, near his door or was it his excited fancy? He raised his head from his pillow and listened intensely. Hush! There is something. No, it was his contagious mind ready to hear and see. What? There was an actual sound of the latch. He could hear it raised. He could not be mistaken. There was a sound as if his door was cautiously opened. List! It was true. There were soft, stealthy footsteps on the carpet. They came directly toward the bed. They paused at its foot. The curtains were agitated. There were steps on the bed. Something crept. Did not the heart and the very flesh of the rash old man now creep, too? And upon him sank a palpable form, palpable from its pressure, for the night was dark as an oven. There was a heavy weight on his chest, and in the same instant something almost icy cold touched his face. With a sudden convulsive action, the old man suddenly flung up his arms, clutched at the terrible object which thus oppressed him and shouted with a loud cry, I have got him! I have got him! There was a sound as of a deep growl, a vehement struggle, but John Bassford held fast his hold and felt that he had something within it huge, shaggy and powerful. Once more he raised his voice loud enough to have roused the whole house, but it seemed no voice of terror but one of triumph and satisfaction. In the next instant the farmer rushed into the room with a light in his hand and revealed to John Bassford that he held in his arms the struggling form of a huge newfoundland dog. Let him go, sir, in God's name, exclaimed the farmer, on whose brow drops of real anguish stood and glistened in the light of the candle. Downstairs, Caesar, and the dog, released from the hold of the Quaker, departed as if much ashamed. In the same instant the farmer and his wife, who now also came in dressed, and evidently never having been to bed, were on their knees by the bedside. You know it all, sir, said the farmer. You see through it. You were too deep and strong-minded to be imposed on. We were, therefore, afraid of this when you asked to sleep in this room. Promise us now that while we live you will never reveal what you know. They then related to him that this house and chamber had never been haunted by any other than this dog which had been trained to play the part, that for generations their family had lived on this farm. But some years ago their landlord, having suddenly raised their rent to an amount that they felt they could not give, they were compelled to think of quitting the farm. This was to them an insuperable source of grief. It was the place that all their lives and memories were bound up with. They were extremely cast down. Suddenly it occurred to them to give an ill name to the house. They hit on this scheme, and, having practised it well, did not long want an opportunity of trying it. It had succeeded beyond their expectations. The fears of their guests were found to be of a force which completely blinded them to any discovery of the truth. There had been occasions where they thought some clumsy accident must have stripped away the delusion. But no, there seemed a thick veil of blindness, a fascination of terror cast over the strongest minds which nothing could pierce through. Case after case occurred, and the house and farm acquired such a character that no money or consideration of any kind would have induced a fresh tenant to live there. The old tenants continued at their old rent, and the comfortable ghost stretched himself every night in a capacious kennel without any need of disturbing his slumbers by calls to disturb those of the guests of the haunted chamber. Having made this revelation, the farmer and his wife again implored their guest to preserve their secret. He hesitated. Nay, said he, I think it would not be right to do that. That would be to make myself a party to a public deception. It would be a kind of fraud on the world and the landlord. It would serve to keep up those superstitious terrors which should be as speedily as possible dissipated. The farmer was in agony. He rose and strode to and fro in the room. His countenance grew red and ruffle. He cast dark glances at his guest, whom his wife continued to implore, and who sat silent and, as it were, lost in reflection. And do you think it a right thing, sir? said the farmer, thus to force yourself into a stranger's house and family, and, in spite of the strongest wishes expressed to the contrary, into his very chambers, and that only to do him a mischief. Is that your religion, sir? I thought you had something better in you than that. Am I now to think your mildness and piety were only so much hypocrisy put on to ruin me? Nay, friend, I don't want to ruin thee, said the Quaker. But ruin me you will, though, if you publish this discovery. Out I must turn and be the laughingstock of the whole country to boot. Now, if that is what you mean, say so, and I shall know what sort of a man you are. Let me know at once whether you are an honest man or a cockatrice. My friend, said the Quaker, canst thou call thyself an honest man in practising this deception for all these years and depriving thy landlord of the rent he would otherwise have got from another, and dost thou think it would be honest in me to assist in the continuance of this fraud? I robbed the landlord of nothing, replied the farmer. I pay a good, fair rent, but I don't want to quit the old spot, and if you had not thrust yourself into this affair, you would have had nothing to lay on your conscience concerning it. I must, let me tell you, look on it as a piece of unwarrantable impertinence to come thus to my house and be kindly treated only to turn Judas against me. The word, Judas, seemed to hit the friend a great blow. A Judas? Yes, a Judas, a real Judas, exclaimed the wife. Who could have thought it? Nay, nay, said the old man. I am no Judas. It is true, I have forced myself into it, and if you pay the landlord an honest rent, why, I don't know that it is any business of mine, at least while you live. That is all we want," replied the farmer, his countenance changing, and again flinging himself by his wife on his knees by the bed, promised us never to reveal it while we live, and we shall be quite satisfied. We have no children, and when we go those may come to the old spot who will. Promise me never to practice this trick again," said John Bassford. We promised faithfully, rejoined both farmer and wife. Then I promised, too, said the friend, that not a whisper of what has passed here shall pass my lips during your lifetime. With warmest expressions of thanks the farmer and his wife withdrew, and John Bassford, having cleared the chamber of its mystery, lay down and passed one of the sweetest nights he ever enjoyed. The farmer and his wife lived a good many years after this, but they both died before Mr. Bassford, and after their death he related to his friends the facts which are here detailed. He, too, has passed years ago to his longer night in the grave, and to the clearing up of greater mysteries than that of The Haunted House of Charnwood Forest.

Bowles A New Yorker's experience with a strange old colonial mansion, a nerve-wracking night, some startling incidents which seemed impossible of rational explanation. By T. D. Sullivan, congressman-elect from New York City. This is, I think, the strangest experience in a career that has not been monotonous. It is true, and at one time I had some trouble keeping it out of the papers. Now there's no more reason for keeping quiet about it, so I may as well tell the whole story for the first time. The reason why I need not keep the secret any longer is because a big old-fashioned red brick building was torn down this year. It was once a private residence, then an office building, and now its site is the site of a steel skyscraper. That is the way New York grows. But at the time this narrative deals with, the house was a residence, a big, rambling, roomy old residence at that. Remodeled from a colonial mansion. There was a young fellow whose father had been a dear friend of mine. He had recently married. His bride had taken a fancy to the house, and her husband, being rich and eager to gratify any whim of hers, had bought it in at a sheriff's sale of Uptown property. The purchaser is now a United States congressman. I have not permission to use his name, so I will call him Clark. His chief opponent at the sale was a real estate dealer. O. Gorman is near enough to his real name to suit present purposes. This O. Gorman was a shrewd, shifty, unscrupulous chap who had visions of the great future of the Upper West Side, visions that later came true. If you ever get dissatisfied with the old place, I'll take it off your hands at the figure of my best bid to-day," he said to Clark after the sale. Clark laughed at him, gave orders for the house's renovation, and sailed with his bride for Europe on a six-months trip. The trouble begins. I was sitting in my office one day about half a year later when Clark sauntered in. I saw from his face he was bothered about something. After our first meeting he came to the point. I've made a bad investment in that old Bartolf house," he said. The colonial builder's name had been Jan Bartolf, and the house was still referred to in the neighbourhood by his name. Doesn't Mrs. Clark like the place as much as she expected to? I asked him. She hasn't had a chance to judge of it, he said, and I don't mean that she shall. The house is haunted. Haunted? What nonsense! That's what I thought when I came home last week from Europe and found that not a single day's work had been done on the repairs I ordered," answered Clark. I went to the contractor, and he calmly informed me he wouldn't touch the job, and that I could have my money back. He said that ghosts had frightened his workmen half to death, that he'd seen and heard things there that couldn't be explained, and that every man in his employ would strike if he ordered them to work there. And you believed all that rot, I laughed. No," replied Clark seriously. I didn't. I thought he was lying. I went over the house myself, and—well, what he said was true. You can guide me if you like, old man, but the house is haunted, and I'm going to get rid of it. I suppose white monsters clattered their chains at you, I hazarded, and you ran a block before you identified the hideous spectres as a pack of mice scampering in the loose plastering of the walls. If you take it that way," he said, offended at my guying, there's no use inviting any more of your jokes by telling you what really happened to me there. I'm going to hunt up, oh Gorman, tell him the truth about the place, and see if his offer to buy it still holds good. He may be willing to pay something for it as a land speculation. He never could get a tenant to stay there. Now Clark's absolute sincerity began to make an impression on me. I saw that he was terribly in earnest, that he believed he was telling the truth, and that he was really ready to sell the valuable property for a song. Look here, Clark," I said. I'm sorry I guide you, but it all seems so absurd. You know as well as I do that there are no such things as ghosts. Don't be foolish and give up the place till you've made sure. What are you going to do this evening? Nothing a special. Why? Come and dine with me. Then we'll take a box of cigars, a bundle of candles, and a light lunch along, and go together to this haunted house of yours for the night. I've always wanted to see a ghost. Maybe I can find some explanation for it all. My first idea on hearing his story had been that oh Gorman, in order to gain possession of the property he coveted, had bribed the contractor to spring that ghost yarn, but when Clark himself had apparently seen or heard something to verify the crazy belief, the affair began to take on a more serious aspect. A night investigation. I took a long nap that afternoon to obviate the chance of going to sleep during the vigil, and promptly at ten that evening I started with Clark for the Bartholph mansion. It was, as I said, a rambling old brick dwelling, and built in colonial days by an eccentric Dutchman concerning whom some odd story still survived. The neighbours, it seemed, had regarded him as a sort of wizard or magician. As we walked up the uneven path to the front porch, the old pile of brick looked in the moonlight like the regular dime-novel haunted house, and as Clark led us in through the great blackened oak doors, the darkness of the huge hall seemed to rush forward to meet us. We set about our preparations in a business-like way. We established our headquarters for the night in the big drawing-room to the right of the hall. We lighted a half-dozen candles, stuck them in the rusty iron sconces about the wall, and set about examining the room. The walls were lined with faded tapestry, one or two old half-defaced pictures hung here and there, notably one of old Jan Bartholph himself, which was directly above the mantle. Several pieces of furniture occupied the bare floor, whose hardwood boards were warped by dampness and neglect. We made sure that no hiding-place for lurking mischief-makers existed within the four walls of the apartment. Then, candle in hand, we made a systematic detour of the whole dusty, creaking house. Well, said Clark, as we reached the top of the wide staircase on our return toward the ground floor. If there had been a man or even a mouse concealed anywhere, we'd have found him. Let's go back to the drawing-room and—why, it's dark down there. We were half-way downstairs as he spoke. On our way up, the light of the candles in the drawing-room sconces had cast a glow across the hall. Now, except where illuminated by the two candles in our hands, the whole lower floor was in dense blackness. Ghostly mystery. What do you think now? asked Clark. I made no reply, but ran down the remaining steps into the drawing-room. The smell of extinguished candles filled the room. All was dark save where a broad patch of moonlight from the one unshuttered window fell on the floor. In the very centre of that patch was an old mahogany rocking-chair. It was rocking with a quiet, regular motion, as if some invisible guest were taking his ease and swaying himself to sleep. Do you see that? whispered Clark over my shoulder. That's what I saw when I came up here in broad daylight. It's a current of air, I explained. But even as I said it, I knew that no real draft could enter that closed-room with force enough to blow out six candles and start a heavy chair into motion. Moreover, the air in the room was dead and motionless. I never used to believe in this sort of thing any more than you do, said Clark. But who can doubt it now? I can doubt it, I answered. Help me light these candles in the sconces, and we'll make another inspection of the room. We lighted the candles. As we set foot in the room, the chair had ceased rocking. We once more made the rounds of the apartment, patting the tapestry against the walls with our hands, looking under each bit of furniture, sounding the bricked-up fireplace, and in other ways making sure no trick was played on us by human agency. If anybody is putting up this line of practical joking, I said, he can't do anything while we're in here, if it's a ghost. The sound as if someone sobbing and panting for breath came to us while I was speaking. It seemed to be in the room, within arm's length of us. That's easily explained, I said, as Clark grabbed my arm. The wind in the empty passages of the house and the chimney makes, it's growing dark, interrupted my companion. I looked up. Only two of the six candles were burning. Even as I looked, first one and then another of those remaining two lights went out. It was as though someone had passed along that side of the room and extinguished them. We were in total darkness, for I had closed that one open window-shutter. In the dense blackness, as I groped for a match, I could hear that great rocking chair slowly begin to creak back and forth. I found a match at last and struck it. We relighted the candles. Then I turned to look at the rocker. It was standing motionless. We stared hopelessly into each other's faces. I hoped mine wasn't as scared and white as Clark's. And this is the sort of house you advise me to bring my bride to. You tell at last. We've seen enough. I'm going home. You're going to spend the night here as you promised, I answered. This ghost seems to be a harmless sort of creature. As long as he contents himself with puffing out candles and making chairs rock, he can't bother us greatly. Let's have a smoke and talk it over. I sat down in the ghostly rocker and lighted a cigar. I kept a keen eye on the candles, resolved to get some clue, if possible, to the way they were extinguished. Clark threw himself on a sofa at the other side of the room. It's no use, he said. I'll get rid of the house as soon as I can and at any terms. I'm sorry because my wife had set her heart on living here. With a little repair this would be an ideal home. Except for the ghost. What are you doing? The ghost. I had risen to my feet and come to the middle of the room. The rocker in which I'd been sitting was in the shadow. The candles, as we had rearranged them, were all at the lower end of the room, near the big mantelpiece. As I had sat idly listening to Clark's complaint, my gaze had chance to fall on old Jan Bartolf's picture. I could have sworn that I saw the eyes in the tarnished face close and then open. I'm just strolling around for exercise," I said carelessly. It makes one so nervous to sit still in here and— As I got to this point my steps had carried me in a circuitous route to the mantel. With a sudden motion and exerting all my strength I seized the big picture and wrenched it from its fastenings. It fell to the floor with a crash and there, in a great hole in the wall which the canvas had covered, crouched a human body. With a second sweep of the arm I seized it as it was about to vanish into the dark passage behind the opening and pulled it into the room where it tumbled headlong on the floor. There's your ghost, Clark," I said, brushing the dust off my clothes and watching the figure scramble to its feet. You're a clever chap, O Gorman, but you're not clever enough. That's all the trouble with you. Now, Clark, if you'll keep your hands on this worthy house-haunter, I'm going on an exploring expedition. Clark had the struggling fellow by the throat and I lighted an extra candle and clumbered up into the hole above the mantel. I'll be back in a minute," I said. The picture led to a passageway nearly three feet wide that ran the entire length of the house, being depressed to a height of about three feet at places where the windows intervened. This explained the unusually deep window-seats I'd noticed. The inner walls of the passage, those nearest the rooms, were honeycombed with auger holes, whose aspect showed them to have been bored many years before. Secret Passages Through these apertures it had been a simple matter for O Gorman to detect the whereabouts of the candles in the sconces and, by a sudden puff, to blow them out. The thread-bear tapestry did not obstruct the air and one could see dimly through it. The passage ran clear around the house between outer and inner walls, connecting by ladders with a similar secret passage on the floor above. A ladder descended from the ground floor passage to a space between the drawing room flooring and the cellar ceiling. This space was quite large enough to admit the body of a man. As I glanced into it, I could see the drawing room candle-light filtering through the cracks in the flooring. A slender bladed knife thrust through the cracks at the right place would readily account for the rocking of the chair. One light push of the knife-point would set it in motion. Old Jan Bartolf must have had odd theories on the subject of building. What may have been the original object of these passages, peep-holes, et cetera, no one can tell. Whether he sought to spy on his family or guests, or whether he feared he might one day need shelter from justice or from Indians, I don't know. Perhaps to foist the popular belief in his magic powers. But the secret chambers were there, and Ogorman had made clever use of them. But for his folly in using the cut-out eye-holes in the portrait in order to watch us from a better point of view he would assuredly have gained his point and bought the house of Clark for a song. Ogorman confessed to us that while wandering over the house with a view to buying it, just before Clark had outbid him he had blundered on the secret passage behind Bartolf's picture. The idea of scaring Clark into selling cheap had occurred to him soon after. On Ogorman giving us a written confession, Clark, greatly against my advice, let the fellow go. He was so much relieved to find the house was not really haunted, he said, that he hadn't the heart to drag the whole story into the public prints by prosecuting the swindler. End of In A Haunted House Recording by a Newgate novelist I sat looking at her, wondering if a more appropriate name could have been found for that figure among the anemones and selendines, primulas, pansies, and pinks. The thousand and one blossoms, which, glowing against their groundwork of forget-me-not, formed a jewel mosaic right to the foot of the snows above us. Flowerful life! Truly that was hers. She had a great bunch of scarlet-rode dendrons stuck behind her ear, matching the cloth cap perched gentily on her head, and as she sat herding her buffaloes on the upland, she had threaded chaplet on chaplet of oxide daisies, and hung them about her wherever they could be hung. The result was distinctly flowerful. Her face also was distinctly pretty, distinctly clean for a Kashmiri girls. But coquette, flirt, minx was written in every line of it, and accounted for a most unusual neatness and brightness. She caught my eye and smiled again, broadly, innocently. The Huzoor would like to paint my picture, wouldn't he? She went on in a tone of certainty. The Saib who came last year gave me five rupees. I will take six this year. Food is dear, and those base-born contractors of the Maharaja sees everything. One walnut in ten, one chicken in ten. But I was not going to be beguiled into the old complaints I could hear any, and every day, from the hags of the village. Up here on the murg, within a stone's throw of the first patch of snow, picketing the outskirts of the great glacier of Gwashbrari, I liked, if possible, to forget how vile man could be, in the little shingle huts clustering below by the river. I will not describe the place. To begin with, it defies description, and next, could I even hint at its surpassing beauty, the globetrotter would come and defile it. It is sufficient to say that a murg is an upland meadow or alp, and that this one, with its forget-me-nots and sparkling glaciers, was like a turquoise set in diamonds. I had seated myself on a projecting spur, once I could sketch a frowning defile northwards, down which the emerald green river was dashing madly, among huge rocks crowned by pine trees. I will give five rupees also, that is plenty. I remarked swolvly, and fully Jan smiled again. It must do, for I like being painted. Only a few scybes come, very few, but whenever they see me they want to paint me in the flowers, and it makes the other girls in the village angry. Then Golu and Chochu. Here she went off into a perfect cascade of smiles, and began to pull the eyelashes off the daisies deliberately. There seems a peculiar temptation in girlhood for cruelty towards flowers all over the world, and fully Jan was preeminently girlish. She looked eighteen, but I doubt if she was really more than sixteen. Even so, it was odd to find her unappropriated, so I inquired if Golu or Chochu was the happy man. My mother is a widow. She replied without the least hesitation. It depends which will pay the most, for we are poor. There are others too, so there is no hurry. They are at my beck and call. She crooked her forefinger and nodded her head as if beckoning to someone. For sheer, light-hearted, innocent enjoyment of her own attraction, I never saw the equal of that face. I should have made my fortune if I could have painted it there in the blazing sunlight, framed in flowers, but it was too much for me. Therefore I asked her to move to the right, further along the promontory, so that I could put her in the foreground of the picture I had already begun. There, by that first clump of iris, I said, pointing to a patch of green sword-leaves, where the white and lilac blossoms were beginning to show. She gave a perceptible shudder. What! Sit on a grave, not I. Does not the Huzoor know that those are graves? It is true. All our people are buried here. We plant the iris over them always. If you ask why, I know not. It is the flower of death. A sudden determination to paint her, the flowerful life against the flowerful death, completely obliterated the knowledge of my own incompetence, but I urged and bribed in vain. Fulijan would not stir. She would not even let me pick a handful of the flowers for her to hold. It was unlucky. Besides, one never knew what one might find in the thickets of leaves, bones and horrid things. Had I never heard that dead people got tired of their graves and tried to get out, even if they only wanted something in their graves, they would stretch forth a hand to get it. That was one reason why people covered them up with flowers, just to make them more contented. The idea of stooping to cull a flower and shaking hands with a corpse was distinctly unpleasant, even in the sunlight. So I gave up the point and began to sketch the girl as she sat. Rather a difficult task, for she chattered incessantly. Did I see that thin blue thread of smoke in the dark pole of pine trees covering the bottom of the valley? That was Golus' fire. He was drying Oris' root for the Maharaja. There, on the opposite murg, where the buffaloes showed dark among the flowers, was Chachu's hut. Undoubtedly Chachu was the richer, but Golu could climb like an Ibex. It was he whom the Hazor was going to take as a guide to the peak. He could dance, too. The Hazor should see him dance the circle dance round the fire. No one turned so slowly as Golu. He would not frighten a young lamb except when he was angry. Well, jealous, if the Hazor thought that a better word. By the time she had done chattering there was not a petal left on the oxide daisies, and I was divided between pity and envy towards Golu and Chachu. That evening, as usual, I set my painting to dry on the easel at the door of the tent. As I lounged by the campfire, smoking my pipe, a big young man coming in with a jar of buffalo milk on his shoulder, and a big bunch of red rhododendron behind his ear, stopped and grinned at my caricature of Fuli Jan. Five minutes after, down by the servants' encampment, I heard a free fight going on, and strolled over to see what was the matter. After the manner of Kashmiri quarrels, it had ended almost as it began, for the race loved peace. That it had so ended was not, however, I saw at a glance, the fault of the smaller of the antagonists who was being forcibly held back by my shikari. Chachu, that man there, wanted to charge Golu this man here, the same price for milk as he does your honour, explained the shikari elaborately. That was extortionate, even though Golu, being the Huzoor's guide for tomorrow, may be said to be your honour's servant for the time. I have settled the matter justly. The Huzoor need not give fault to it. I looked at the two recipients of Fuli Jan's favour with interest, for that the bunches of Rhododendron they both wore were her gift, I did not doubt. They were both fine young men, but Golu was distinctly the better looking of the two, if a trifle sinister. Despite the recommendation of my shikari to cast thought aside, the incident lingered in my memory, and I mentioned it to Fuli Jan when, on returning to finish my sketch, I found her waiting for me among the flowers. Her smile was more brilliant than ever. They will not hurt each other, she said. Chachu knows that Golu is more active, and Golu knows that Chachu is stronger. It is like the dogs in our village. I was not thinking of them, I replied. I was thinking of you. Supposing they were to quarrel with you. She laughed. They will not quarrel. In summer time there are plenty of flowers for everybody. I thought of those Rhododendrons and could not repress a smile at her bare-faced wisdom of the serpent. And in the winter time, then I will marry one of them, or some one. I have only to choose. That is all. They are at my beck and call. Three years passed before recurring leave enabled me to pay another visit to the Merg. The Rhododendrons were once more on the uplands, and as I turned the last corner of the pineset path, which threaded its way through the defile, I saw the meadow before me, with its mosaic of flowers bright as ever. The memory of Fuli-jan came back to me as she had sat in the sunshine, nodding and beckoning. Fuli-jan echoed the old patriarch who came out to welcome me as I crossed the plank bridge to the village. Fuli-jan, the hoed girl. Huzor, she is dead. She died from picking flowers. A vain thing. It was at the turn beyond the Merg, Huzor, half-way between Chuchu's hut and Golu's drying-stage. There is a big Rhododendron tree hanging over the cliff, and she must have fallen down. It is three years gone. Three years. Then it must have happened almost immediately after I left the valley. The idea upset me. I knew not why. The Merg without that flowerful life, nodding and beckoning, felt empty, and I found myself wondering if indeed the girl had fallen down, or if she had played with flowers too recklessly and one of her lovers, perhaps both. It was an idea which dimmed the sunshine, and I was glad that I had arranged not to remain for the night, but to push on to another meadow, some six miles further up the river. To do so, however, I required a fresh relay of coolies, and while my shikari was arranging for this in the village, I made my way by a cross-cut to the promontory with its patches of iris. Deaths are rare in these small communities, and there were but two or three new graves, all but one too recent to be poor, foolish hands. That, then, must be hers, with its still clearly defined oblong a virus, already a mass of pale, purple and white. I sat down on a rock and began, unromantically, to eat my lunch, finishing up with a pull at my flask, and thus providentially fortified, I stooped, ear-leaving, to pick one or two of the blossoms from the grave, intending to paint them round the sketch of the girl's head which I had with me. Great heavens! What was that? I turned positively sick with horror and doubt. Was it a hand? It was some time before I could force myself to set aside the sheaving-leaves and settle the point. Something it was, something which, even as I parted the stems, fell to pieces as the skeleton of a beckoning hand might have done. I did not stay to see more. I let the flowers close over it, whatever it was, and made my way back to the village. My baggage, having changed shoulders, was streaming out over the plank bridge again, and in the two first-bearers, carrying my cookroom pots and pans, I recognized Golu and Chuchu. They had both grown stouter and wore huge bunches of red rhododendron behind their ears. I found out, on inquiry, that they were both married and had become bosom friends. I have not seen the turquoise set in diamond sense, but I often think of it, and wonder what it was I saw among the iris. And then I seem to see Fuli-chan sitting among the flowers, nodding her head and saying, They are at my beck and call. If I were Golu or Chuchu, I would be buried somewhere else. End of At Her Beck and Call By Flora Annie Steele In a Cup of Tea by Lafcadio Hearn Have you ever attempted to mount some old tower stairway, spiring up through darkness, and in the heart of that darkness found yourself at the cobwebbed edge of nothing, or have you followed some coast path cut along the face of a cliff, only to discover yourself at a turn on the jagged verge of a break? The emotional worth of such experience, from a literary point of view, is proved by the force of the sensations aroused, and by the vividness with which they are remembered. Now there have been curiously preserved, in old Japanese story books, certain fragments of fiction that produce an almost similar emotional experience. Perhaps the writer was lazy, perhaps he had a quarrel with the publisher, perhaps he was suddenly called away from his little table, and never came back. Perhaps death stopped the writing brush in the very middle of a sentence, but no mortal man can ever tell us exactly why these things were left unfinished. I select a typical example. On the fourth day of the first month of the Third Tenwa, that is to say about 220 years ago, the Lord Nakagawa Sedo, while on his way to make a New Year's visit, halted with his train at a tea house in Hakusan, in the Hongo district of Yedo. While the party were resting there, one of the Lord's attendants, Awakato, named Sekinai, feeling very thirsty, filled for himself a large water cup with tea. He was raised in the cup to his lips, when he suddenly perceived, in the transparent yellow infusion, the image or reflection of a face that was not his own. Startled he looked around, but could see no one near him. The face in the tea appeared, from the coiffure, to be the face of a young samurai. It was strangely distinct, and very handsome, delicate as the face of a girl. And it seemed the reflection of a living face, for the eyes and the lips were moving. Bewildered by this mysterious apparition, Sekinai threw away the tea, and carefully examined the cup. It proved to be a very cheap water cup, with no artistic devices of any sort. He found and filled another cup, and again the face appeared in the tea. He then ordered fresh tea and refilled the cup, and once more the strange face appeared, this time with a mocking smile. But Sekinai did not allow himself to be frightened. Whoever you are, he muttered, you shall delude me no further. Then he swallowed the tea, face and all, and went on his way, wondering whether he had swallowed a ghost. Late in the evening of the same day, while on watch in the palace of the Lord Nakagawa, Sekinai was surprised by the soundless coming of a stranger into the apartment. This stranger, a richly dressed young samurai, seated himself directly in front of Sekinai, and, saluting the Wakato with a slight bow, observed, I am Shikibu Henae, met you today for the first time. You do not seem to recognize me. He spoke in a very low but penetrating voice, and Sekinai was astonished to find before him the same sinister, handsome face of which he had seen and swallowed, the apparition in a cup of tea. It was smiling now, as the phantom had smiled, but the steady gaze of the eyes above the smiling lips was at once a challenge and an insult. No, I do not recognize you. Return, Sekinai, angry but cool, and perhaps you will now be good enough to inform me how you obtained admission to this house? In feudal times the residence of a Lord was strictly guarded at all hours, and no one could enter unannounced except through some unpardonable negligence on the part of the armed watch. Ah, you do not recognize me, exclaimed the visitor in a tone of irony, drawing a little nearer as he spoke. No, you do not recognize me. Yet you took upon yourself this morning to do me a deadly injury. Sekinai instantly seized the tanto at his girdle and made a fierce thrust at the throat of the man, but the blade seemed to touch no substance. Simultaneously and soundlessly the intruder leaped sideward to the chamber wall and threw it. The wall showed no trace of his exit. He had traversed it only as the light of a candle passes through lantern-paper. When Sekinai made report of the incident his recital astonished and puzzled the retainers. No stranger had been seen either to enter or leave the palace at the hour of the occurrence, and no one in the service of the Lord Nakagawa had ever heard of the name Shikibu Henae. On the following night Sekinai was off duty and remained at home with his parents. At a rather late hour he was informed that some strangers had called at the house and desired to speak with him for a moment. Taking his sword he went to the entrance and there found three armed men, apparently retainers, waiting in front of the doorstep. The three bowed respectfully to Sekinai and one of them said, Our names are Matsuoka Bungo, Tsuchibashi Bungo and Okamura Heiroko. We are retainers of the noble Shikibu Henae. When our master last night dained to pay you a visit you struck him with a sword. He was much will hurt and has been obliged to go to the hot springs where his wound is now being treated. But on the sixteenth day of the coming month he will return and he will then fitly repay you for the injury done him. Without waiting to hear more Sekinai leaped out sword in hand and slashed right and left at the strangers, but the three men sprang to the wall of the adjoining building and flitted up the wall like shadows and… Here the old narrative breaks off.

After John Caloran was hit he carried on in kind of twilight of the mind. Things grew dimmer and calmer. Harsh outlines of events became blurred. Memories came to him. There was singing in his ears like far-off bells. Things seemed more beautiful than they had a while ago. To him it was for all the world like an evening after some quiet sunset, when lawns and shrubs and woods and some old spire looked lovely in the late light, and one reflects on past days. Thus he carried on, seeing things dimly, and what was sometimes called the roar of battle, those aerial voices that snarl and moan and whine and rage at soldiers, had grown dimmer too. It all seemed further away and littler as far things are. He still heard the bullets. There was something so violently and intensely sharp in the snap of passing bullets at short range that you hear them in deepest thought and even in dreams. He heard them tearing by, above all things else. The rest seemed fainter and dimmer and smaller and further away. He did not think he was very badly hit, but nothing seemed to matter as he did a while ago. Yet he carried on. And then he opened his eyes very wide and found he was back in London again, in the underground train. He knew it at once by the look of it. He had made hundreds of journeys long ago by those trains. He knew by the dark outside that it had not yet left London, but what was odder than that, if one stopped to think of it, was that he knew exactly where it was going. It was the train that went away out into the country where he used to live as a boy. He was sure of that without thinking. When he began to think how he came to be there, he remembered the war as a very far-off thing. He supposed he had been unconscious a very long time. He was all right now. Other people were sitting beside him on the same seat. They all seemed like people he remembered a very long time ago. In the darkness opposite, beyond the windows of the train, he could see their reflections clearly. He looked at the reflections, but could not quite remember. A woman was sitting on his left. She was quite young. She was like someone that he most deeply remembered than all the others were. He gazed at her and tried to clear his mind. He did not turn and stare at her, but he quietly watched her reflection before him in the dark. Every detail of her dress, her young face, her hat, the little ornaments she wore, were minutely clear before him, looking out of the dark. So contented she looked that she would say she was untouched by war. As he gazed at the clear, calm face, and the dress that seemed neat, though old, and, like all things so far away, his mind grew clearer and clearer. It seemed to him certain that it was the face of his mother, but from thirty years ago, out of old memories and one picture. He felt sure it was his mother as she had been when he was very small. And yet, after thirty years, how could he know? He puzzled and tried to be quite sure. But how she came to be there, looking like that, out of those oldest memories, he did not even think of at all. He seemed to be hugely tired by many things and did not want to think. Yet he was very happy, more happy even than tired men just come home, all new to comfort. He gazed and gazed at the face in the dark. And then he felt quite sure. He was about to speak. Was she looking at him? Was she watching him, he wondered? He glanced up for the first time to his own reflection in the clear row of faces. His own reflection was not there, and blank dark showed between his two neighbors. And then he knew he was dead.

Bell Man Overboard by Winston Spencer Churchill It was a little after half-past nine when the man fell overboard. The male steamer was hurrying through the Red Sea in the hope of making up the time which the currents of the Indian Ocean had stolen. The night was clear, though the moon was hidden behind clouds. The warm air was laden with moisture. The still surface of the waters was only broken by the movement of the Great Ship from whose quarter the long, slanting undulations struck out the feathers from an arrow shaft, and in whose wake the froth and air bubbles churned up by the propeller trailed in a narrowing line to the darkness of the horizon. There was a concert on board. All the passengers were glad to break the monotony of the voyage and gathered around the piano in the companion house. The decks were deserted. The man had been listening to the music and joining in the songs, but the room was hot and he came out to smoke a cigarette and enjoy a breath of the wind which the speedy passage of the liner created. It was the only wind in the Red Sea that night. The accommodation ladder had not been unshipped since leaving Aden, and the man walked out onto the platform as onto a balcony. He leaned his back against the rail and blew a puff of smoke into the air reflectively. The piano struck up a lively tune and a voice began to sing the first verse of the rowdy-dowdy boys. The measured pulsations of the screw were a subdued but additional accompaniment. The man knew the song. It had been the rage at all the music halls when he had started for India seven years before. It reminded him of the brilliant and busy streets he had not seen for so long, but was soon to see again. He was just going to join in the chorus when the railing which had been insecurely fastened gave way suddenly with a snap and he fell backwards into the warm water of the sea amid a great splash. For a moment he was physically too much astonished to think. Then he realized that he must shout. He began to do this even before he rose to the surface. He achieved a horse inarticulate, half choked scream. A startled brain suggested the word help and he bawled this out lustily and with frantic effort six or seven times without stopping. Then he listened. High, high, clear the way for the rowdy-dowdy boys. The chorus floated back to him across the smooth water for the ship had already passed completely by and as he heard the music a long stab of terror drove through his heart. The possibility that he would not be picked up dawned for the first time on his consciousness. The chorus started again. Then I say, boys, who's for a jolly spree? Rum tum tiddlyum, who'll have a drink with me? Help, help, help, shrieked the man in desperate fear. Fond of a glass now and then, fond of a row or noise. High, high, clear the way for the rowdy-dowdy boys. The last words drawled out faint and fainter. The vessel was steaming fast. The beginning of the second verse was confused and broken by the ever-growing distance. The dark outline of the great hull was getting blurred. The stern light dwindled. Then he set out to swim after it with furious energy, pausing every dozen strokes to shout long, wild shouts. The disturbed waters of the sea began to settle again to their rest. The widening undulations became ripples. The air-rated confusion of the screw fizzed itself upwards and out. The noise of motion and the sounds of life and music died away. The liner was but a single fading light on the blackness of the waters and a dark shadow against the pale or sky. At length, full realization came to the man and he stopped swimming. He was alone, abandoned. With the understanding his brain reeled. He began again to swim, only now, instead of shouting, he prayed. Mad, incoherent prayers, the words stumbling into one another. Suddenly a distant light seemed to flicker and brighten. A surge of joy and hope rushed through his mind. They were going to stop, to turn the ship and come back. And with the hope came gratitude. His prayer was answered. Broken words of thanksgiving rose to his lips. He stopped and stared after the light, his soul in his eyes. As he watched it, it grew gradually but steadily smaller. Then the man knew that his fate was certain. Despair succeeded hope. Gratitude gave place to curses. Beating the water with his arms he raved impotently. Foul oaths burst from him as broken as his prayers and as unheeded. The fit of passion passed, hurried by increasing fatigue. He became silent. Silent as was the sea, for even the ripples were subsiding into the glassy smoothness of the surface. He swam on mechanically along the track of the ship, sobbing quietly to himself in the misery of fear. And the stern light became a tiny speck, yellower but scarcely bigger than some of the stars which here and there are shown between the clouds. Nearly twenty minutes passed and the man's fatigue began to change to exhaustion. The overpowering sense of the inevitable pressed upon him. With the weariness came a strange comfort. He need not swim all the long way to Suez. There was another course. He would die. He would resign his existence since he was thus abandoned. He threw up his hands impulsively and sank. Down, down he went through the warm water. The physical death took hold of him and he began to drown. The pain of that savage grip recalled his anger. He fought with it furiously. Striking out with arms and legs he sought to get back to the air. It was a hard struggle, but he escaped victorious and gasping to the surface. Despair awaited him. Feebly splashing with his hands he moaned in bitter misery. I can't. I must. Oh God, let me die. The moon, then in her third quarter, pushed out from behind the concealing clouds and shed a pale, soft glitter upon the sea. Upright in the water, fifty yards away, was a black, triangular object. It was a fin. It approached him slowly. His last appeal had been heard. End of Man Overboard Recording by Louise J. Bell Sebastopol, California The Man with the Gash by Jack London This is a LibriVox recording. All LibriVox recordings are in the public domain. For more information or to volunteer, please visit LibriVox.org The Man with the Gash by Jack London Jacob Kent had suffered from cupidity all the days of his life. This, in turn, had engendered a chronic distrustfulness, and his mind and character had become so warped that he was a very disagreeable man to deal with. He was also a victim to some nambolic propensities and very set in his ideas. He had been a weaver of cloth from the cradle until the fever of Klondike had entered his blood and torn him away from his loom. His cabin stood midway between Sixty Mile Post and the Stewart River, and men who made it accustomed to travel the trail to Dawson, likened him to a robber baron, perched in his fortress an exacting toll from the caravans that used his ill-kept roads. Since a certain amount of history was required in the construction of this figure, the less-cultured wayfarers from Stewart River were prone to describe him after a still more primordial fashion, in which command of strong adjectives was to be chiefly noted. This cabin was not his, by the way, having been built several years previously by a couple of miners who had got out a raft of logs at that point for a grub steak. They had been most hospitable lads, and, after they abandoned it, travelers who knew the route made it an object to arrive there at nightfall. It was very handy, saving them all the time and toil of pitching camp, and it was an unwritten rule that the last man left a neat pile of firewood for the next comer. Rarely a night passed, but from half a dozen to a score of men crowded into its shelter. Jacob Kent noted these things, exercised squatter sovereignty, and moved in. Thenceforth, the weary travelers were mulked at a dollar per head for the privilege of sleeping on the floor, Jacob Kent weighing the dust and never failing to steal the downweight. Besides, he so contrived that his transient guests chopped his wood for him and carried his water. This was rank piracy, but his victims were an easygoing breed, and while they detested him, they yet permitted him to flourish in his sins. One afternoon in April he sat by his door, for all the world like a predatory spider, marveling at the heat of the returning sun, and keeping an eye on the trail for prospective flies. The Yukon lay at his feet, a sea of ice disappearing around two great bends to the north and south, and stretching an honest two miles from bank to bank. Over its rough breast ran the sled trail, a slender sunken line, 18 inches wide and 2,000 miles in length, with more curses distributed to the linear foot than any other road in or out of all Christendom. Jacob Kent was feeling particularly good that afternoon. The record had been broken the previous night, and he had sold his hospitality to no less than 28 visitors. True, it had been quite uncomfortable, and four had snored beneath his bunk all night. But then it had added appreciable weight to the sack in which he kept his gold dust. That sack, with its glittering yellow treasure, was at once the chief delight and the chief bane of his existence. Heaven and hell lay within its slender mouth. In the nature of things there being no privacy to his one-roomed dwelling, he was tortured by a constant fear of theft. It would be very easy for these bearded, desperate-looking strangers to make away with it. Often he dreamed that such was the case, and awoke in the grip of nightmare. A select number of these robbers haunted him through his dreams, and he came to know them quite well, especially the bronzed leader with the gash on his right cheek. This fellow was the most persistent of the lot, and because of him, he had, in his waking moments, constructed several score of hiding places in and about the cabin. After a concealment, he would breathe freely again, perhaps for several nights, only to collar the man with the gash in the very act of unearthing the sack. Then, on awakening in the midst of the usual struggle, he would at once get up and transfer the bag to a new and more ingenious crypt. It was not that he was the direct victim of these phantasms, but he believed in omens and thought-transference, and he deemed these dream robbers to be the astral projection of real personages who happened at those particular moments, no matter where they were in the flesh, to be harboring designs in the spirit upon his wealth. So he continued to bleed the unfortunates who crossed his threshold, and at the same time to add to his trouble with every ounce that went into the sack. As he sat sunning himself, a thought came to Jacob Kent that brought him to his feet with a jerk. The pleasures of life had culminated in the continual weighing and re-weighing of his dust, but a shadow had been thrown upon this pleasant avocation which he had hitherto failed to brush aside. His gold scales were quite small. In fact, their maximum was a pound and a half, 18 ounces, while his hoard amounted up to something like three and a third times that. He had never been able to weigh it all at one operation, and hence considered himself to have been shut out from a new and most edifying coin of contemplation. Being denied this, half the pleasure of possession had been lost. Nay, he felt that this miserable obstacle actually minimized the fact, as it did the strength of possession. It was the solution of this problem flashing across his mind that had just brought him to his feet. He searched the trail carefully in either direction. There was nothing in sight, so he went inside. In a few seconds he had the table cleared away and the scales set up. On one side he placed the stamped discs to the equivalent of 15 ounces and balanced it with dust on the other. Replacing the weights with dust, he then had 30 ounces precisely balanced. These, in turn, he placed together on one side and again balanced with more dust. By this time the gold was exhausted and he was sweating liberally. He trembled with ecstasy, ravished beyond measure. Nevertheless he dusted the sack thoroughly to the last least grain till the balance was overcome and one side of the scales sank to the table. Equilibrium, however, was restored by the addition of a pennyweight and five grains to the opposite side. He stood, head thrown back, transfixed. The sack was empty, but the potentiality of the scales had become immeasurable. Upon them he could weigh any amount from the tiniest grain to pounds upon pounds. Mammon laid hot fingers on his heart. The sun swung on its westering way till it flashed through the open doorway full upon the yellow-burdened scales. The precious heaps, like the golden breasts of a bronze Cleopatra, flung back the light in a mellow glow. Time and space were not. God, blimey, but you have the making of several quid there, haven't you? Jacob Kent wheeled about, at the same time reaching for his double-barreled shotgun, which stood handy. But when his eyes lit on the intruder's face he staggered back dizzily. It was the face of the man with the gash. The man looked at him curiously. Oh, that's all right! he said, waving his hand deprecatingly. You needn't think as all arm you or your blasted dust. You're a rum and you are. He added reflectively as he watched the sweat pouring from off Kent's face and the quavering of his knees. Why don't you pipe up and say something? He went on as the other struggled for breath. What's gone wrong, ya guff? Any think the matter? W-w-where'd you get it? Kent at last managed to articulate, raising a shaking forefinger to the ghastly scar which seemed the other's cheek. Shipmates stole me down with a marlin spike from the main royal. And now, as ya have your figure red and trim, what I want to know is what it's a you. That's what I want to know. What it's a you, go blimey, do it at you. Ain't it smug enough for the likes of you? That's what I want to know. No, no, Kent answered, sinking upon a stool with a sickly grin. I was just wondering, Did you ever see the like? The other went on treculently. No. Ain't it a bute? Yes. Kent nodded his head approvingly, intent on humoring this strange visitor, but wholly unprepared for the outburst which was to follow his effort to be agreeable. You blasted bloom in burgu-eaten son of a sea swab. What do you mean, a sayin' the most unsightly thing God almighty ever put on the face of man is a bute? What do you mean you? And there at this fiery son of a sea broke off into a string of oriental profanity, mingling gods and devils, lineages and men, metaphors and monsters, with so savage a virility that Jacob Kent was paralyzed. He shrank back, his arms lifted as though to ward off physical violence. So utterly unnerved was he that the other paused in the mid-swing of a gorgeous peroration and bust into thunderous laughter. The sons knocked the bottom out of the trail, said the man with the gash, between departing paroxysms of mirth, and I only hope as you'll appreciate the opportunity of consortin' with a man of my mug. Get steam up in that firebox a yarn, go and un-rig the dogs and grub them, and don't be shy of the wood, my lad. There's plenty more where that come from, and it's you've got the time to sling an axe, and tow up a bucket of water while you're about it. Lively, or I'll run you down, so help me. Such a thing was unheard of. Jacob Kent was making the fire, chopping wood, packing water, doing menial tasks for a guest. When Jim Cardege left Dawson, it was with his head filled with the iniquities of this roadside shylock, and all along the trail his numerous victims had added to the sum of his crimes. Now Jim Cardege, with the sailor's love for a sailor's joke, had determined, when he pulled into the cabin, to bring its inmate down a peg or so, that he had succeeded beyond expectation he could not help but remark, though he was in the dark as to the part the gash on his cheek had played in it. But while he could not understand, he saw the terror it created, and resolved to exploit it as remorselessly as would any modern trader a choice bit of merchandise. Strike me blind, but you're a usla, he said admiringly, his head cocked to one side as his host bustled about. You never ought to have gone clondiking. It's the keeper of a pub you was laid out for, and it's often as I have heard the lads up and down the river speak of you, but I hadn't no idea you was so jolly nice. Jacob Kent experienced a tremendous yearning to try his shotgun on him, but the fascination of the gash was too potent. This was the real man with the gash, the man who had so often robbed him in the spirit. This, then, was the embodied entity of the being whose astral form had been projected into his dreams, the man who had so frequently harbored designs against his horde. Hence, there could be no other conclusion. This man with the gash had now come into the flesh to dispossess him, and that gash he could no more keep his eyes from it than stop the beating of his heart. Try as he would. They wandered back to that one point as inevitably as the needle to the pole. Do it, aren't you? Jim Cartagy thundered suddenly, looking up from the spreading of his blankets and encountering the wrapped gaze of the other. It strikes me as I would it be the proper thing for you to draw your jib, douse the glim, and turn in, seein' as I would words you. Just lay to that, you swab, or so help me, I'll take a pull on your peak purchases. Kent was so nervous that it took three puffs to blow out the slush lamp, and he crawled into his blankets without even removing his moccasins. The sailor was soon snoring lustily from his hard bed on the floor, but Kent lay staring up into the blackness. One hand on the shotgun resolved not to close his eyes the whole night. He had not had an opportunity to secrete his five pounds of gold, and it lay in the ammunition box at the head of his bunk. But, try as he would, he at last dozed off with the weight of his dust heavy on his soul. Had he not inadvertently fallen asleep with his mind in such condition, the somnambolic demon would not have been invoked, nor would Jim Cardege have gone mining next day with a dishpan. The fire fought a losing battle, and at last died away, while the frost penetrated the mossy chinks between the logs and chilled the inner atmosphere. The dogs outside ceased their howling, and, curled up in the snow, dreamed of salmon-stocked heavens, where dog-drivers and kindred taskmasters were not. Within, a sailor lay like a log, while his host tossed restlessly about, the victim of strange fantasies. As midnight drew near, he suddenly threw off the blankets and got up. It was remarkable that he could do what he then did without ever striking a light. Perhaps it was because of the darkness that he kept his eyes shut, and perhaps it was for fear he would see the terrible gash on the cheek of his visitor. But, be this as it may, it is a fact that, unseen, his ammunition box put a heavy charge into the muzzle of the shotgun without spilling a particle, rammed it down with double wads, and then put everything away and got back into bed. Just as daylight laid its steel-grey fingers on the parchment window, Jacob Kent awoke. Turning on his elbow, he raised the lid and peered into the ammunition box. Whatever he saw, or whatever he did not see, exercised a very peculiar effect upon him, considering his neurotic temperament. He glanced at the sleeping man on the floor, let the lid down gently, and rolled over on his back. It was an unwanted calm that rested on his face, not a muscle quivered. There was not the least sign of excitement or perturbation. He lay there a long while, thinking, and when he got up and began to move about, it was in a cool, collected manner, without noise and without hurry. It happened that a heavy wooden peg had been driven into the ridge pole just above Jim Cartagy's head. Jacob Kent, working softly, ran a piece of half-inch manilla over it, bringing both ends to the ground. One end he tied about his waist, and in the other he rove a running noose. Then he cocked his shotgun and laid it within reach by the side of numerous moose-hide thongs. By an effort of will, he bore the sight of the scar, slipped the noose over the sleeper's head, and drew it taut by throwing back on his weight at the same time, seizing the gun and bringing it to bear. Jim Cartagy awoke, choking, bewildered, staring down the twin wells of steel. Where is it? Kent asked, at the same time slacking on the rope. You blasted! Kent merely threw back his weight, shutting off the other's wind. Bloomin' burr! Where is it? Kent repeated. What? Cartagy asked, as soon as he had caught his breath. The gold dust. What gold dust? The perplexed sailor demanded. You know well enough. Mine ain't seen nothin' of it. What do you take me for, a safe deposit? What have I got to do with it anyhow? Maybe you know, and maybe you don't. But anyway, I'm going to stop your breath, till you do know. And if you lift a hand, I'll blow your head off! Fast even! Cartagy roared as the rope tightened. Kent eased away a moment, and the sailor, wriggling his neck as though from the pressure, managed to loosen the noose a bit and work it up so the point of contact was just under the chin. Well, Kent questioned, expecting the disclosure, but Cartagy grinned. Go ahead with your angin'. You bloomin' ol' pop wallabah! Then, as the sailor had anticipated, the tragedy became a farce. Cartagy, being the heavier of the two, Kent, throwing his body backward and down, could not lift him clear of the ground. Strain and strive to the utter most. The sailor's feet still stuck to the floor and sustained a part of his weight. The remaining portion was supported by the point of contact just under his chin. Failing to swing him clear, Kent clung on, resolved to slowly throttle him or force him to tell what he had done with the horde. But the man with the gash would not throttle. Five, ten, fifteen minutes passed, and at the end of that time, in despair, Kent let his prisoner down. Well, he remarked, wiping away the sweat, if you won't hang, you'll shoot. Some men wasn't born to be hanged anyway. And it's a pretty mess as you'll make all this eared cabin floor. Cartagy was fighting for time. Now look here, I'll tell you what we do. We'll lay our heads long side and reason together. You've lost some dust. You say is how I know, and I say is how I don't. Let's get a observation and shape a course. Vast heave-in, Kent dashed in, maliciously imitating the other's enunciation. I'm going to shape all the courses of this shebang, and you observe. And if you do anything more, I'll bore you as sure as Moses. For the sake of my mother, whom God have mercy upon if she loves you. Ah, would you? He frustrated a hostile move on the part of the other by pressing the cold muzzle against his forehead. Lay quiet now. If you lift as much as a hair, you'll get it. It was rather an awkward task, with the trigger of the gun always within pulling distance of the finger. But Kent was a weaver, and in a few minutes had the sailor tied hand and foot. Then he dragged him without and laid him by the side of the cabin, where he could overlook the river and watch the sun climb to the meridian. Now I'll give you till noon, and then what? You'll be hitting the brimstone trail, but if you speak up, I'll keep you till the next bunch of mounted police come by. Well, God, blind me if this ain't a go. Here I be, innocent as a lamb, and here you be, lost all of your top amper and out of your reckoning. Run me foul and going to rake me into Elfire. You blooming old pirate, you... Jim Cartagy loosed the strings of his profanity and fairly outdid himself. Jacob Kent brought out a stool that he might enjoy it in comfort. Having exhausted all the possible combinations of his vocabulary, the sailor quieted down to hard thinking, his eyes constantly gauging the progress of the sun, which tore up the eastern slope of the heavens with unseemly haste. His dogs, surprised that they had not long since been put to harness, crowded around him. His helplessness appealed to the brutes. They felt that something was wrong, though they knew not what, without howling their mournful sympathy. Chook, mush on your swashes! He cried, attempting in a vermicular way to kick at them and discovering himself to be tottering on the edge of a declivity. As soon as the animals had scattered, he devoted himself to the significance of that declivity, which he felt to be there but could not see. Nor was he long in arriving at a correct conclusion. In the nature of things, he figured, man is lazy. He was no more than he has to. When he builds a cabin, he must put dirt on the roof. From these premises, it was logical that he should carry that dirt no further than was absolutely necessary. Therefore, he lay upon the edge of the hole from which the dirt had been taken to roof Jacob Kent's cabin. This knowledge, properly utilized, might prolong things, he thought, and he then turned his attention to the moose-hide thongs which bound him. The thongs were tied behind him, and pressing against the snow, they were wet with the contact. This moistening of the raw hide he knew would tend to make it stretch, and, without apparent effort, he endeavored to stretch it more and more. He watched the trail hungrily, and when in the direction of 60 mile a dark speck appeared for a moment against the white background of an ice-jam, he cast an anxious eye at the sun. It had climbed nearly to the zenith. Now and again he caught the black speck clearing the hills of ice and sinking into the intervening hollows. But he dared not permit himself more than the most cursory glances for fear of rousing his enemies' suspicion. Once, when Jacob Kent rose to his feet and searched the trail with care, Cardigy was frightened, but the dog sled had struck a piece of trail running parallel with a jam and remained out of sight till the danger was passed. I'll see you ung for this! Cardigy threatened, attempting to draw the other's attention. And you're rotten, El. Just you see if you don't. I say! He cried after another pause. Do you believe in ghosts? Kent's sudden start made him sure of his ground and he went on. Now a ghost has the right to haunt a man. What don't do what he says? And you can't shuffle me off till eight bells. What I mean is 12 o'clock. Can you? Because if you do, it'll happen as how I'll haunt you. The ear! A minute, a second too quick. And I'll haunt you so help me I will. Jacob Kent looked dubious but declined to talk. How's your chronometer? What's your longitude? How do you know as your time's correct? Cardigy persisted, vainly hoping to beat his executioner out of a few minutes. Is it barracks time, you have? Or is it the company time? Because if you do it before the stroke of the bell, I'll not rest. I give you fair warning. I'll come back. And if you haven't the time, I will you know. That's what I want. I will you tell. I'll send you off all right. Kent replied. Got a sundial here. No good. 32 degrees variation of needle. Steaks are all set. How did you get them? Compass? No, lined them up with the north star. Sure? Sure. Cardigy groaned, then stole a glance at the trail. The sled was just clearing a rise, barely a mile away, and the dogs were in full lope running lightly. How close is the shadows to the line? Kent walked to the primitive timepiece and studied it. Three inches, he announced after a careful survey. Say, just sing out eight bells, of four you pull the gun, will ya? Kent agreed, and they lapsed into silence. The thongs about Cardigy's wrists were slowly stretching, and he had begun to work them over his hands. Say, how close is the shadows? One inch. The sailor wriggered slightly to assure himself that he would topple over at the right moment and slipped the first turn over his hands. How close? Half an inch. Just then Kent heard the jarring churn of the runners and turned his eyes to the trail. The driver was lying flat on the sled and the dogs swinging down the straight stretch to the cabin. Kent whirled back, bringing his rifle to shoulder. It ain't eight bells yet, you sure? Jacob Kent faltered. He was standing by the sundial, perhaps ten paces from his victim. The man on the sled must have seen that something unusual was taking place, for he had risen to his knees, his whip singing viciously among the dogs. The shadows swept into line. Kent looked along the sights. Make ready! He commanded solemnly. Eight but just a fraction of a second too soon, Kent held his fire and ran to the edge. Bang! The gun exploded full in the sailor's face as he rose to his feet. But no smoke came from the muzzle. Instead, a sheet of flame burst from the side of the barrel near its butt and Jacob Kent went down. The dogs dashed up the bank, dragging the sled over his body and the driver sprang off as Jim Cardege freed his hands and drew himself from the hole. Jim, the newcomer recognized him. What's the matter? What's the matter? Oh, nothing at all. It just happens as I do little things like this for my health. What's the matter, you bloomin' idiot? What's the matter, eh? Cast me loose or I'll show you what. Hurry up or I'll only stone the decks with you. He added as the other went to work with his sheath knife. What's the matter? I want to know. Just tell me that, will ya? What's the matter, hey? Kent was quite dead when they rolled him over. The gun, an old-fashioned heavy-weighted muzzleloader, lay near him. Steel and wood had parted company. Near the butt of the right-hand barrel with lips pressed outward gaped a fissure several inches in length. The sailor picked it up curiously. A glittering stream flowed dust ran through the crack. The facts of the case donned upon Jim Cartagy. Strike me standin', he roared. Here's ya go. Here's his bloomin' dust. God, blimey, and you too, Charlie, if you don't run and get the dishpan. End of The Man with the Gash. Memory by H.P. Lovecraft. This is a LibriVox recording.

In the valley of Nis the accursed waning moon shines thinly, tearing a path for its light with feeble horns through the lethal foliage of the great upas tree. And within the depths of the valley, where the light reaches not, move forms, not meet to be held. Rank is the erbiage on each slope, where evil vines and creeping plants crawl amidst the stones of the ruined palaces, twining tightly about the broken columns, and strange monoliths, and heaving up moral pavements laid by forgotten hands. And in the trees that grow gigantic in crumbling courtyards leap little apes, while in and out of deep treasure-folds writhe poisonous serpents and scaly things without a name. Vast are the stones which sleep beneath coverlets of dank moss, and mighty were the walls from which they fell. For all time did their builders erect them, and in sooth they have yet served nobly, for beneath them the gray toad makes his habitation. At the very bottom of the valley lies the river Than, whose waters are slimy and filled with weeds. From hidden springs it rises, and to subterranean grottoes it flows, so that the daemon of the valley knows not why its waters are red, nor whither they are bound. The genie that haunts the moon-beams spake to the daemon of the valley, saying, I am old and forget much. Tell me the deeds and aspect and name of them about these things of stone. And the daemon replied, I am memory and am wise in lore of the past, but I too am old. These beings were like the waters of the river Than, not to be understood. Their deeds I recall not, for they were but of the moment. Their aspect I recall dimly, for it was like that of the little apes in the trees. Their name I recall clearly, for it rhymed with that of the river. These beings of yesterday were called man. So the genie flew back to the thin, horned moon, and the daemon looked intently at the little apes in the tree that grew in the crumbling courtyard. End of Memory by H.P.

UCKN1OL8ZzQLfy_ae7H2zgMQ	The Basics of Graphic Design for the Busy Business Owner, Kathryn Sullivan 2022 Float Conference	Most float center owners are a little lost when it comes to putting together promotional materials, maintaining a social media account, and interacting with printers. I'll run through simple things like which programs to use, the difference between making a file for print vs for digital, how to approach designing any webpage and/or ad, and the nitty gritty of how to present a brand visually.

I might talk real fast, but don't worry. It's going to be online. Don't forget that while I talk. I was pulled on to float on to be the illustrator and graphic designer many years ago, and I want you all to know that I was not a designer at the time. This is important information. I was like, yeah, Graham, I can do that, but like, you should know that I'm specifically very bad at composition. He was like, that's chill. I'll train you. So I know a thing or two about not knowing a thing or two. And I've also seen firsthand what it's like to be a business owner who is trying to do all of their graphic design by themselves. So I'm hoping that I can share with you some of the things that I've learned over the last, I don't know how many years I'm tired, I can't count. So, oh, there's the mic. That's good to know. To be efficient, I put everything that I'm going to talk about on one slide. So you all can read that, right? I forgot my glasses upstairs, but you can read that. Well, how about we zoom in on the parts that I'm going to be talking about? We'll start with what kind of programs you should have installed. So we got, like, publishing software. We should have, like, an image manipulation software. And that's maybe a little bit cluttered. I'd really love to remove some of these elements, but I did build this in Photoshop, and now we're in PowerPoint. I'll put some boxes in front of it so that the elements don't, well, now those are black. They should be colored so that they cover up specific things. And some of those things are really blurry. So let's, like, put some text over the, it doesn't fit. Okay. This is very bad. It's almost like I should have built my slides in a program that I built to make slides. Part one, use the right software for the job. So how about those lines? We don't need these vertical lines because we already know this has columns. We can see them. Get out of there. There's a lot of colors on here, too. I don't think we need all these colors. We can already see that there are rows, and there's nothing particularly red about publishing software or purple about, what is that, design mock-up software. Let's limit it to one color. I don't have a style sheet for this slideshow because I was only going to do one slide. So I guess when we're in that position, the best thing to do is to copy somebody else's style. We'll just make it blue. Good. And the headers, too. Yes. Now that we've done all that, I can't help but notice that Microsoft Word is weirdly emphasized. They should pay me money for this. The sizing is all off. We should make everything the same size. Yes. But it's not the same size because there's like 10 million fonts on here. So get rid of all of those. Better. Now the alignment is very odd in the horizontal sense. So let's use the arrange tool here to get that into whack because you can get things out of whack. The arrange menu is on almost every program. If you don't know where it is and whatever you're using, definitely Google that. That will save you a million years of time. Great. Not so great. Those colored boxes are just all over the place. I don't have time to deal with that. I think there is actually a table function that I should have been using in PowerPoint, but I didn't know at the time I'm learning a new piece of software right now. So let's get rid of those. We don't need those. Oh, we needed those. The background is very ugly. Let's get rid of the background. That's fine. Oh, everything is centered. Why is everything centered? Did I think it was all headers? They're not. This is unscanable. Do it. Yes. Good. Now it's jiggly from top to bottom. I like this better, but there's like way not enough space for description. Let's get that spaced out. That's okay. That's going along. Now there's typos, and there's weird emphasis. Check this. Editor is just like capitalization. I can't add that. Now, also the line heights here. I can't find the line height function, but I really like these things to line up with each other across the board. That's a little better. Mm, the tidalese. The tidalese. Those sweet little tidalese are not feeling very tidally to me. What if we make the lower lines lighter so that the higher line has all the emphasis? That helps a little, but it's not quite enough, especially on this very well-lit screen. Let's try making the titles bold. It looks like nothing. Let's try making the titles underlined. They look like links. Let's make them bigger. Okay. That's alright, I guess. I think this is about as far as we can go with this without deleting some of this, honestly, egregiously copyright. You can't read it anyway. We'll start by getting rid of design mockup software. I don't really know that stuff very well, so what's the point? We already talked about spreadsheets, and I only mentioned text editors because I want to advise you not to try and make pamphlets and that thing, because it's not going to be a fun time. Okay, now we can fit this all on a page better. I made it all bulleted lips, too, so that you can actually read it. Okay, now that you can see that, why is this in a table? What are tables for? Tables are meant for comparing things. And we can see there are three different kinds of software, and sure, we could be like, ah, here's all the features that Catherine wants you to look at. And you could make the argument that I put this in a table to show you that these are all very distinct programs with nothing in common, but you want to know the real reason that it's in a table. I had too much to put on a page and I wanted an excuse to put lines in between everything. And that's a terrible reason to use a table. Let's give each of these things their own slides, as it should have been. I know more work for me, but part two, where do I try to expose you to tech jargon without scaring you? Wish me luck. We're gonna talk about text, excuse me, vector editors. This is very ugly. Let's get this into PowerPoint and give it a glow up. Okay. So again, lots of fonts. We got like, what is it for getting signs, teachers and other swag printed logos and icons like it bounces all over the place. And as you're reading it, you have all these opportunities to just get out of here. You're like, well, they're switching font again, I'll just leave. So let's get that all unified. There's a lot of bounciness also as we're reading because the text is centered, you have to go find the beginning of the line, every single line, loop, loop, loop, loop, loop, loop, it's nonsense. Let's get that all justified to the left as it should be. There's no shame in just going with the flow of the page, we read right to left, excuse me, the other way around and top to bottom. And we want to read of this side of the page first. We can just leave our text over there all cozy. On the other hand, I don't actually want you guys reading at all because I have a mouth and I can speak pretty fast. Vector editors, what are they for? posters, t shirts, icons for your website, mocking up your website, and your logos. Why do we use vectors for this? Well, I'll tell you, this is a model of a raster image, a raster image is made up of pixels. Every single pixel is given a color and a position, and every single pixel has to load. You might notice it takes a little while. Here we are waiting for our bitmap to load. Here we are waiting for a bitmap to load. And you can't read the text, because there's only so many pixels. So what do we do about that? Well, we've got compressed images. Here's an example of a JPEG. I mean, it's not exact, but this is roughly what a JPEG does to compress the image. You can see that it loaded way faster. But we've lost information. We call this a lossy compression. Even if you don't remember what type of file you're using, you can always look up is this lossy. JPEGs have this distinctive square artifacting. And you'll also see that colors start to bleed into other colors. And it's very ugly. I might be biased. I really hate JPEGs. This is a PNG. It loads much faster as well similar to JPEGs, but it uses a different type of compression. And it's lossless. Every single pixel is exactly the same as the original bitmap, despite the fact that it was loaded much more efficiently. However, you can see that there are still only so many pixels up here, and we can't read this nice text. And you could do all sorts of things to this image. You could load it into Illustrator and re-save it as a .ai file. You could make it into a PDF. You could blow it up in Photoshop, and that text is never coming back because there's only so many pixels. So this little thing right here that I was using on the other slide, if we want to make that big as a raster image, it's only going to show off whatever kind of compression artifact is on there. It's never going to get bigger. So what do we do? Enter the vector! How big? How big can we display a vector? Yes. Vectors can display a so big, and they display so fast. There are no pixels in a vector image. They're math. They're just mathematical descriptions of how your computer should draw the image, which is awesome. So if I've got this little bitty icon, as you can see, this is like 1080 by 1920. I can't be sure about this. This is not my projector, but roughly speaking, and this is 150 pixels by 150 pixels that we have to stretch out. Side note, don't ever stretch your images out of aspect ratio. You think, oh, well, I just needed to stretch it a little bit to fill this space. No, I will notice, and it will hurt me. Don't do it, please. So, say we want to use this icon, but it's very ugly. It's got a background. It's all fuzzy. I don't know what to do about it. Well, let me show you my very favorite tool from Illustrator. It's called Image Trace. You can chuck a thing into Illustrator and use the, like, just kind of do the, oh, right, if you can't find it, it's in the Windows menu. I did that. That was smart of past self. You can play with the tools here, and it will attempt to trace the image for you. This is great for me because I'm not, I'm an Illustrator by nature, so I often end up with more images than I do, just shapes. I just really wanted to show you this tool. It's, like, my favorite thing. Now, obviously, garbage in, garbage out. This is not the nicest looking vector. A lot of stuff on this page. Get out of here. Okay, this is not the nicest looking vector you could get. But if you put in, say, like an 8,000 by 8,000 image with three colors, and then you suck that in there, well, then you got yourself a t-shirt. There's also, it's a powerful stuff you can do with a vector editor. It's so great. If you want to up your skills in your vector editor program, I can't get into the stuff, but you could Google converting anchor points, shape builder and shape merge, and again, Image Trace. Image Trace is actually available, not just in Illustrator, but in every freeware program as well. So that's tight. I didn't know that before this talk. It's around. Part three, putting stuff with other stuff. Now it's time to talk about everybody's favorite kind of software, the image editor. That's your Photoshop. It's also your Krita and your Gimp, which are two freeware programs that have tools in them that Photoshop doesn't have. So definitely check those guys out. This slide is terrible in a fresh new way. We've got all the same font, but I've done some terrible things this time. Sorry. Let me get into PowerPoint and show you all about it. So this image already has several elements on it. We've got the hands, and we've got the heart in between them. We've got the surface of the water, and we have the ripples in the water. Every element on this page has a relationship to every other element on this page. The two hands form the heart. The ripples on the water define the continuity of the water. The highlights on the water, which intersect with the back hand, show that it is in fact a reflection and behind the surface of the water. So if you add another element inside of an element, I have created a hideous chimera of an element, which can no longer do either of the things that it wants to do. This text can no longer command your attention well enough to make you read it, and this hand can no longer do the compositional work that it was designed for. If you don't see why this is so weird, let me replace it with just any other element. Why is that mic in that hand, and why is it in a different style? It begs all sorts of bizarre questions that you don't really want to ask of your audience. So how do we put text on an image? Letting our text intersect with one of the major elements of the page I have established to the audience that this text is above everything. Your text and logo are not a part of the images that they're on. They are above it. They are more important. They are separate. This is not the most legible text, though, because there's a value shift pretty rapidly, which is what happens when you intersect things. So what do we do about that? Well, if it was on my website, I just removed the text. I just get rid of it. I figure let's give the image first, and after I have your attention, I'll do some words maybe. But let's say we don't want to get rid of any text. Let's say we've gone through every single word of this and we've decided that it is absolutely necessary to get our meaning across into leading any of it would remove the meaning, every single word. This is perfect copywriting. I definitely don't hate this copywriting. Well, if this was the buoy project, I might put a glow effect behind it. And that keeps the values in this kind of a smooth curve instead of a choppy curve is much nicer. Also, nice for float images. It has a nice glow to it. If this were float tank solutions, however, I'd give the text more authority by putting it into a handy dandy info box because the float tank solutions vibe is let's present all the information very efficiently and cleanly. If this were for the shop, I'd put it in a jaunty circle with some handwritten text because the shop's design is for showing that floating is not scary. And if this were for Helmbot, I would give the text an enormous amount of space to luxuriate and just a whole hotel room to itself. It's so cozy over there because Helmbot's design is made to say, this is simple. And what's simpler than they're just being text and they're being an image and you just get to look at them whenever you like. Sometimes overlapping things is too much for a design. All of these things were created in an image editor, and that's a great use for that. Other great uses for image editing software is putting an image into the software and turning it into your logo colors or making it into a tiling background image or making Steven Johnson into the Terminator. If you want to master your image manipulation software and you don't have time to look up absolutely everything, my top three things to Google are layer styles, layer masks, and just layers. You should learn about layers. Layers are great. Not everything should be made in an image manipulation software. This is the beginner's guide. This is the beginning of the beginner's guide. It was created in Photoshop. One of my first jobs when Graham pulled me on, he was like, you need to learn in design. And also, please put this thing that I made into InDesign. InDesign is far better for this kind of thing. It supports multiple pages. It has all sorts of tools for arranging things on the page. And it also has this amazing feature of linked files and styles that will make making changes much more fluid. I don't have time to get into it. I want to get the page layout, but here's the things you should look up if you want to be a bomber at your publishing software. LinkedIn embedded files. What is margin and bleed? Text and object styles. Okay, let's get to page layout. Page layout. This is, oh, this is a thing, huh? I love that E. That E is my favorite thing right now. Just kind of hanging out. I don't know. What is this page? I don't know what this is for. Let's remove some of these elements and see if we can't distill this into something that means something. Let's start with that glowy guy. Get out of here, glowy guy. I don't know what you're for. Over here, look, we've got a little Jocelyn. Jocelyn's great. She's been working so hard. This page isn't about her. We've got two things that have clocks on them. I don't need two things with clocks on. Get them out of there. We also already talked about which program we should use, so I don't need that. And I don't need an associated image. Let's see. What else can we get rid of? This thing, very low res. Look at that JPEG artifact. Get out of here. Let's see. We don't need memes, whatever. I can communicate more effectively than that, and that's ugly. That thing's also low res. I don't need that. That thing's squished, and that thing is stretched. And there's salt on my page. Oh my God. Get out of here. We can get rid of that spreadsheet and make Steven Johnson happy. Vectors are cool, but this isn't about vectors. What does that even say over there? Yeah, there are too many colors. Let's unify the colors as much as we can. Some of these images can't be unified, which is get rid of them. That's fine. Let's see. Yeah, get rid of those colors too. This is good. Get rid of that. We already did colors. That's fine. We don't crush elements into corners. That's good. What is that? Yeah, get gone. That thing. There. Everything is made up and the points don't matter. True. But what's that? I know what that is. I know what's on there, but you don't know what that means, so let's get rid of that. That's nothing. Yeah, let's say that E is still down there. Get rid of dolphin girl. This isn't about crushing elements. This isn't about alignment. This isn't about get gone. Oh my gosh, salt. Okay. We already know this is a page. In fact, we already know this is page layout. We don't need that first half. We don't need that second half. This is not in color scheme. We should get rid of these fonts. This background is smushed. We don't need a background. Let's get rid of this too. Let's get rid of that. Let's get rid of the freaking get gone. Do you want to know what the most powerful element on a page is? Is everybody's favorite thing? If you drop a single pebble into this luminous void, it will be lifted up and the page will shout, this is important because this was put here deliberately. The amount of space that I've been given in this room and the amount of time that you've given me, that's what's making me important right now. You could get rid of this podium. You could get rid of this art. You could get rid of half these lights and I would be in a spotlight. You could get rid of this thing right here, and I would only get more important. And that could be a really scary thing. People get stage fright. They see this blank page. They're like, oh, shoot. Maybe I'll bold this text. That'll make people look at it. Maybe I'll add an image. Maybe I'll make another paragraph of text explaining why people should care about this. Maybe I'll make every single letter a different color and then I'd seven different glowing arrows all pointing at it and then people will care. And you don't need all that actually. You really don't. Did you know that people love your business and they already want to hear from you? And you've already got important and cool things to say. We don't really have time to arrange every element on the page. There's like, you could put a hundred things on there, but you don't have to. You can just say what you need to say. You can sit down for your design and just be like, here's what I mean. This is what I want to say to my clients. And you can get something on the page. And then you can viciously remove absolutely everything that isn't serving your purpose and get the full power of nothing behind you. Thank you.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5R-7VtDWexQ", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }
UCu3Ri8DI1RQLdVtU12uIp1Q	Accumulo's Secret to Real-time Performance	sqrrl Co-Founder and CTO Adam Fuchs explains in this whiteboard session how Accumulo provides granular and scaleable security to noSQL database environments in this session with Wikibon's Dave Vellante Hybrid flash/disk storage systems, in which data is written first to a flash cache in the server and then later peculated to a traditional storage array, can provide significant direct savings in environments supporting more than 700 IOPs per Tbyte. And hybrid arrays can benefit SMBs as well as large enterprises. Those are the primary conclusions of an in-depth Wikibon research project into performance differences between true hybrid storage and traditional arrays with read-only cache, presented in David Floyer's latest report, "Hybrid Storage Poised to Disrupt Traditional Arrays." The savings comes partly from the order-of-magnitude read-write speeds of flash-first hybrid storage, in which data is written directly to the flash cache, as contrasted by the traditional array architecture in which data is first written to disk and then copied to the flash cache. This advantage is magnified in virtualized environments where control of reads and writes rests in the virtualization layer, and traffic from multiple applications is combined. This traffic appears to the storage layer as random. Flash is optimized for such random traffic while disk by nature is much more efficient handling long consecutive reads and writes. The result of this huge performance advantage is that the number of cores in a typical high-performance database can be reduced while still meeting QoS requirements for the database. For instance, Floyer writes, a planned eight core traditional database infastructure can be reduced to five cores by using a hybrid system. Given that licenses for SQL Server and Oracle databases cost $15,000 to $20,000 per processor core, this can save $45,000 to $60,000 in licensing. A VM-aware hybrid storage architecture also greatly simplifies database management because VM storage objects are mapped directly to objects held in the storage array. The software-layer management can provide detailed response-time performance measurements to the DBA. The study found that this reduced the time required to manage these systems to about five hours per week, compared to 10-to-20 hours per week for traditional systems running similar loads. Databases under 700 IOPS per Tbyte, and lower performance systems in general, however, probably will not benefit sufficiently to justify the higher purchase cost of flash systems. They are better off, Floyer writes, on lower-cost all disk systems. Adding read-only flash cache to traditional storage arrays will increase performance. "However, Wikibon does not believe that this implementation will provide the same cost and performance advantages of a full implementation of a flash-first VM-Aware hybrid architecture." Floyer concludes that over time flash costs will continue to decrease, and flash-first arrays, either hybrid or pure flash, will become the standard for high-performance storage. As a result, he recommends strongly that CIOs, including those of SMBs and corporate divisions, specify low-latency flash or hybrid arrays in the RFPs for all high-performance storage systems where the anticipated performance characteristics exceed the minimum 700 IOPS per Tbyte.

In the second, we took a look at the security ecosystem around Accumulo, the database that Adam helped build while he was at the NSA, and today, we're gonna look at how Accumulo is optimized to maximize performance. Adam, take it away. Thanks, Dave, good to be here. Yeah, so we're gonna cover some of the secrets of how Accumulo really gets all of its performance in real time. A lot of this derived from Google's Bigtable and things that we've extended in my previous career at NSA, as well as what I'm doing now with Squirrel. So to start out, we'll look at one of the key elements here, which is the log structure of Merchantry, which really backs up a lot of the key value operations inside of Accumulo. So Accumulo stores key value pairs and it stores them in sorted order. And we take tables, which are really just collections of key value pairs. We break them up into partitions, which are known as tablets. And focusing in on just one particular tablet, we can talk about a couple of operations specific to that data. So in particular, if we're just looking at the tablet data flow here, we have data coming in from the left and these are key value pairs coming in in random order within the boundaries of that tablet. On the right, we have key value pairs coming out, but they come out in sorted order. So in in random order, out in sorted order and in between, there's a mess of operations to perform that sort. And we're going to optimize two different elements as we perform that sort operation. The first is to minimize the latency. So as data streams in, we want that data to be able to contribute to a query with as little latency as possible there. At the same time, we want to minimize our impact on disk resources. So Accumulo is a disk based architecture as we store data on spinning disks. We don't want to do a whole lot of random IO. We want to perform sequential IO whenever possible on disks. So that's performed through this mechanism and I'll take you through that here. So key value pairs coming in in random order immediately go into an in-memory map and this is a balanced binary tree. It's random IO, but it's inside of memory so it's efficient and as soon as it's in that in-memory map, it can contribute to a query. So we've minimized latency there. However, in-memory map, that's a volatile memory. So in order to preserve durability, at the same time, we write the data to a write-ahead log. This write-ahead log for Accumulo version 1.5 and beyond is stored in HDFS. So it's actually replicated on multiple nodes and it's synced to disk by the time that we acknowledge a write. Another issue with just storing things in memory is that memory is much smaller than disk. So at some point, this memory will fill up and we'll need to perform what's known as a compaction operation or minor compaction, also known as a flush operation. We flush that in-memory map to a file which is stored, again, in HDFS. So that write on disk, we want to make sequential. So we buffer a fair amount of data in memory and write that all as one sequential stream to an R file. Memory is much smaller than disk drives. So it'll fill up again. We'll do another compaction operation writing to an additional R file. Each of these R files then participates in queries. And as we stream data out of it, we'll stream, we'll merge data from each of these independent containers through a mechanism here to provide a single sorted stream of key value pairs at the query. The more R files we have, the more sources of data that we have, the more seeks that we have to do on disk. So query latency is impacted by the number of these files. So in order to minimize query latency, we do this, an additional background operation here, which is known as a major compaction, where we take multiple files, merge them together to perform, to create one single globally sorted file across all of those. And that operation happens as a background processing operation. So we have background threads doing the minor compaction, background thread doing the major compaction, and then threads attached to the query or the write performing those operations. So all of this is great. This is basically a standard log structure merge tree design. It goes back into the mid 90s for technology. One of the things that we've done with Acumulo is to put another mechanism in here, known as the iterator tree. So as we stream data from these multiple sources and merge them together, it actually goes through a series of operators. And those operators take place not only on the query path, but also on the compaction paths. So there's a series of operators that these sorted streams of key value pairs go through. So if we focus in on what those operators are, there's another view here of that iterator tree. So you can think of a series of our files and the in-memory map contributing to some following process here. The first one that we're going to do is really a merge. So we'll merge all of these individually sorted key value sources together to perform a single stream of sorted key value. But we're not done yet. So operations like deleting key value pairs or the cell level security that you're familiar with inside of Acumulo, that all goes through iterators and is performed in iterators. So that's a set of system iterators. On top of that, we can extend our capabilities to application-specific processing. So you might consider the case of I'm inserting key value pairs, I insert the same key twice with two different values. What do I do with the values? Do I keep the most recent one? Do I keep all versions of it? One of the operations that we do inside of the application specific iterators is versioning. So we can decide to keep the most recent value. We can keep the most 10 recent values. We can keep the most recent 90 days of values. So those are basic, what we would call filtering operations. In addition to that, we can do aggregation operations. So instead of just filtering out some of the values, we can calculate a function of all of the values that we've seen. And if that function is associative and commutative, then we can reason about it and we can say that really any online statistic fits naturally inside of that iterator tree here. So one example of that is word count. Anybody who's ever done the MapReduce tutorial has gone through a series of documents, pulled out the words, mapped those words to a count of those words, and then inside of the reduce phase done a collapsing of all of those counts, adding them up to provide the final word count. We can do the same thing, but we can do it in a streaming fashion using the iterators combining capability or aggregation capability to perform a very efficient merge. So for example, if I have this corpus of documents, I generate a set of terms. Each term I associated with the number of times I see that. I'm going to see the term A many times inside of the iterators. I may see two of those key value pairs. I can add those up. I get another version. Maybe that's one of my compaction operations. I do another compaction operation on the next two. Maybe I do a major compaction, merging those two together to get my final or at least most recent count. So the term A being seen four times would happen as an aggregation inside of the iterator tree. So when we look at the performance of that, essentially what we're trying to do here is avoid read, modify, write. So as I'm inserting randomly ordered key value pairs, if I need to look up the previous value, I'm essentially reading that off of disk, causing a seek on disk, and then writing a new value of it could also result in a write to disk. That type of randomized disk is very inefficient. So since we're piggybacking on top of this log structure merge tree mechanism, we can get much more efficient writes of online statistical data, where we're keeping that aggregated footprint instead. So a cumulative has this thing called a compaction ratio. And that actually allows us to shift between extremes here. On one extreme, we might want to say that I only want to keep one file at any point to really minimize the read latency that I see. The cost of that is every time I write new data, every time it flushes the disk, I need to compact it with that existing file. And as such, I'm going to be doing a number of copies, a large number of copies of each of the key value pairs that I write, where those copies are essentially rewriting that key value pair on disk. The flip side is maybe I don't want to do a lot of copies. I want to minimize my impact to disk, so I can keep the copies down. But the cost of that is I get a lot of intermediate R files, and that has an impact on read latency. So what we've offered is a ratio that you can set in between there. We've tried to optimize it for the general use case, where it's a mix of reads and writes. But essentially, we can bring that number of copies down, which makes our writes much more efficient, and at the same time, keep our read latency fairly low. So there you have it. That's the secret to Accumulo's online real time performance for a number of applications. Thank you, Adam. So you're seeing some of the innovations that Accumulo built on top of Bigtable and, of course, Squirrel just announced Squirrel Enterprise, which is an application development environment to allow programmers to take greater advantage of Accumulo and dramatically simplify that environment.

I wasn't aware of this, so I brought in everyone's favorite crypto CPA, She-Han Chandrasekhar, out to the show to explain. So She-Han, welcome back. Yeah, great to be here again. Poor again to that. Can you just give us a quick refresher so everybody knows? First of all, I'm going to ask you this. What is a taxable event? What's it is between short and long-term capital gains? And then also there's one called a net investment income tax. So just real quick, She-Han, could you just kind of go through what is an actual taxable event in crypto so people know? Yeah, so in general for crypto, there are five taxable events. By the way, this has nothing to do with ETF. This is just general crypto. So number one, just cashing out pretty self-explanatory. You had Bitcoin, you sold it for profit for cash. You had to pay taxes. Number two, when you exchange one coin or NFT with another coin or NFT, the IRS does not care if you receive cash or not. You still had to pay taxes. If that first coin has appreciated in value at the time you're exchanging it to the next coin. OK. Number three, when you spend cryptocurrency or even NFTs to buy goods and services, that triggers a taxable event. Number four is when you earn cryptocurrencies. You can earn cryptocurrencies through mining, staking, employment income, et cetera. Those are taxable. The last one is crypto specific events. Like sometimes you get new coins as a result of an airdrop or a hard fork. And those coins are taxed at the time you receive them based on the fair market value. So those are the five taxable events. Gotcha. OK. So that is just the basics of basics. Let's talk about short and long term capital gains because you put this up. And of course, people look at this and are like, what is this? Do I have to pay this much taxes? So just real quick difference between short and long term and what are the brackets here in the United States? Now, of course, we can't cover all the different countries that are out there, but this is a general term and this is just for the US. Yeah. So at a high level, what determines whether something is short term or long term is the holding period in simple terms. That means how much you're keeping an ETF share or a coin or stock. So if you were to buy something and sell after holding it for less than 12 months, the resulting profit results in what's called short term capital gains. And those gains are subject to these tax rates based on your filing status and the income levels. So let's say, for example, you made $50,000 worth of short term capital gains. So you got to kind of follow the chart. So 50,000 kind of in that third row. So that 50,000 is going to be subject to assuming you're a single file and that's going to be subject to a 22% tax rate. So that's kind of how it works. Gotcha. So like from like from if I make 50,000, not a bad. So this is a progressive tax, right? So from zero to 11,000, I'm paying X amount. Correct. 11,000, 40,000, paying 12 and 44 to the 22. It's not like when I get to 44,000, I'm immediately paying 22%. So I know some people sometimes have that question, but we have a progressive tax. Now, let's so just to clarify. So the 22% the rate is going to be applied to whatever the difference between 50,000 minus 44,725. Exactly. Gotcha. Gotcha. Good clarification. So that would be the short term. Let's talk about long term. Yeah. So the long term capital gains apply when you sell something for profit after holding it for more than 12 months. So there are three tax rates for these profits to be subject to 0%, 15% and 20%. By the way, a lot of people are not aware of this 0% tax rate. And it's something that you can use if you kind of meet the complications. Let's do like another example here. So let's say $50,000, like in our previous example, in this case, it's a long term capital gain. In this scenario, that entire 50,000 is going to be subject to a flat 15% tax rate because these rates are kind of a little bit different compared to the previous shot. And by the way, so in order for you to get the 0% rate, like your entire taxable income for the year has to be less than like $44,625 for a single person. So let's say, for example, you had one year, all you had was like, you know, $40,000 worth of long term Bitcoin, stock or ETF gains. That's going to be subject to 0% tax rates, meaning you don't have to pay any taxes. Well, thank God for small wonders, only $40,000 to live on. Yeah. Yeah, only $40,000 to live on. But if you really think about it, that's probably equivalent to a $60,000, $65,000 W2 income, right? Because because you're not paying taxes. Like if you like if you have like a $62,000, $65,000 and W2 job, your actual cash inflow is probably going to be somewhere around 40 to 45,000. Like that's actually what hitting your bank account. So that is very true. Yeah, I could I could be OK, you know, living around $3,700 to $4,000 a month, just going from there. I mean, of course, it'd be $48,000, but yeah, let's just say $35,000, I can do that. So there's that piece. Now let's talk about the NIT, the net investment income tax. What exactly is this year? Yeah, so so we spoke about short term capital gains and long term capital gains. And in any given year, if you're total income, but as a matter of fact, it's called the modified gross adjusted income exceeds any of these shows, you had to pay an additional 3.8 percent tax on top of your capital gain tax. So going with our example before, so you had three thousand dollars worth of, you know, could be short term or long term. But for the entire year, you made like, you know, half a million dollars because you're high net with individuals and that half a million dollar could come from wages or business income or whatever. So in that case, that 50,000 is is subject to their short term or long term capital gain taxes we spoke about. Plus, this additional 3.8 percent tax. Ah, fun times. Good love taxes. So now that will leave us to our last point, which is one that I had a question on, which was these fund expenses, because this is all from the Bitcoin ETF and the different institutions that are offering those services, the Black Rocks and the Fidelity's and things like that. There is a fund expense. So could you kind of walk us through this because that's for the people who right now are going, OK, I'm just going to do a Bitcoin ETF, but I haven't sold anything. So how does this work for fund expenses? Yeah, so this is somewhat unique thing to spot ETFs because these ETFs are structured as grant or trust. So obviously, like sponsors like, you know, ARC and Fidelity, they need to have money to kind of run the fund, right? They had to pay the salaries and etc. Right. In order to do that, they have to dispose of like bitcoins throughout the year to kind of come up with the cash inflow. So whenever they do that, that results in a capital gain or loss event for the shareholders, because whenever you spend something like Bitcoin, there's a difference between how much you paid for it and the market value. So if there's a profit, there's a gain at the fund level. And as an ETF shareholder, you had to report that gain based on your pro-rata share of the fund that you own. But the trick here is that you had to report that gain, but the fund is not giving you the cash. They're not distributing that. Yeah. So I like to kind of call this like a hodling tax because generally speaking, like, you know, hodling, hodling is completely tax-free. Like if you're hodling, you know, Bitcoin, even like any stock, right? But if you're hodling a spot Bitcoin ETF fund, you had to keep you had to pay this tax. That's kind of something for you guys to know about. That's crazy. That's crazy. So everybody, so if you're new to the game and then you're like, you're seeing yourself that that a, you know, an ETF could be very safe. Of course, you offload some of those restrictions and the things that you have to do as far as what you're holding on to it. That is true. But just like Xi'an said, and I've never heard of this until right now, there is a hodling tax. That is probably what I will use in the description in the title for this actual video. So Xi'an, that's interesting stuff. And yet another reason why I think people should learn how to self custody and cold storage devices. But that's another video. So Xi'an, before we take off any last words of wisdom for the people out there getting into the space right now. I think the spot Bitcoin ETF, like there are like, you know, legit use cases for using something like that, especially if you want to buy if you don't have exposure to crypto in a 401k set by array or need to have an account, the spot Bitcoin ETF is a really good way to go about that. But if you're kind of want to kind of hold Bitcoin for the long run, the cheapest way for you to do is self custody, assuming you don't lose any seed prices or stuff like that, or you don't compromise your seed price to a hacker. This is very true. There's always the pros and the cons. So Xi'an, thank you so much. All right, everybody. So look, if you like today's video, give it a thumbs up, consider subscribing. If you want to follow Xi'an, there's information below in the description. That's it for today. So everybody, thanks so much for stopping by. Hope this helped and we'll see you in the next one. Thanks, guys.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5r_Mk32rWac", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

UCfX55Sx5hEFjoC3cNs6mCUQ	Keynote: The New World of Open Source Networking, Edge & IoT - Arpit Joshipura	Keynote: The New World of Open Source Networking, Edge & IoT - Arpit Joshipura, GM, Networking, Edge & IoT, The Linux Foundation https://sched.co/Nu0g	null	2019-07-11T00:42:55	2024-02-05T08:14:25	690	5RxrVC9l1mY	All right, good morning. As people come in, we will start this second round of keynotes with a very interesting twist, which is how does cloud native impact adjacent areas and technology? So that's the focus of this whole section of keynotes. And you will understand and appreciate how different open source projects within the Linux Foundation are working together to enable this phenomena. What I'm going to talk about today are three things. And I call it the new world of open source networking, edge, and IoT. And this new world has three characteristics. The first one is telecom networks globally have now chosen open source to be their de facto platform. That's number one. Number two, the cloud is moving to the edge. And edge is going to be unified across not just the cloud, but cloud networks, telecom, enterprise, and IoT. It's going to be a common edge. So we'll talk about that built on open source. And number three, there are interdependencies between projects across cloud native and other technologies. So I'm going to cover all three. Let me start off with the telecom networking part. Open source is going to be the de facto way how global networks are built. Why do we know that? The journey started with SDN and NFV several years ago. I was one of the first ones in that journey. That journey led to disaggregation, where you had a choice of hardware and software. It moved to automation and orchestration of the entire network zero touch last year. And then this year is about open collaboration with the cloud native and containerization. And to help with this journey, Linux Foundation, Linux Foundation Networking specifically, is very proud to host nine of the top 10 projects, top 10 open source projects. We have operators and end users participating that account for almost 70% of the global mobile subscribers, including the top three from China here, top China Mobile, China Telecom, China Unicom, and all the vendors that are in networking. So this is just the board of LF Networking, but huge momentum here. And that momentum has been recognized through deployments, open sources deployed in some of the largest carriers and specifically projects like ONAP that Jim talked about, open network automation platform which was created through the collaboration of China Mobile and AT&T a couple of years ago and now is the de facto platform, right? Geo, Reliance Geo, the fastest growing LTE network in India is using that AT&T, China Mobile, Bell Canada, Orange, you name it, there's huge focus on deployment. And the thing that I personally like is the how open source is developed. And I call it diversity across people, communities, geographies, and companies. So you can see some of the panels. We had an all-female panel, keynote panel. These are technical leaders in the ONAP community, right? They own the TSC. We had meetups, including last year here in Shanghai. So, and then on the right-hand side, you can see from the colors that various companies are contributing from the first release to the releases afterwards. So it's very important from a diversity perspective. And the focus areas on networking for this year in terms of open source are two things. One is compliance and verification, and the other one is standards and open source harmonization. So let me take two minutes to explain those. In the world of telcos, if you're a China Mobile, China Telecom, China Unicom, or anyone in the world, the thing on the left is what you have to deal with. You get a VNF or a virtual network function or a workload or an app, right? Load balancers, firewalls, evolve packet core. You get that from one vendor. You get the orchestrator from another vendor. You get the virtual infrastructure manager from another vendor, and you get the hardware and NFVI that we call it from another one. And then you have to onboard and test. What LF Networking's OVP program that just got launched will do is simplify the whole life cycle by 50%. It will be based on ONAP and OPNFE, and we are working with GSMA to help this standardized NFVI. Huge, huge progress in the community to simplify deployment. The second important thing we are doing in Networking is to make sure that standards and open source work collaboratively. We have white papers that are just refreshed that explain how the communities work, and we are now the showcase for standards and open source collaboration, whether it's MEF, TMF Forum, ORAN, Etsy, GSMA. We are the standard, and we work with them very, very closely. Now, that's the core Networking, which is now automated, and it needs to be automated before 5G hits. Now let's move to the edge. When we move to the edge, today you have a fragmented edge. You have a cloud edge, you have an IoT edge, you have an enterprise edge, and now you have a telco edge. We believe that there needs to be a unified edge, and so we announced in 2019 an umbrella project called LF Edge, which is hugely supported by you folks here in China, that unifies the different edge communities. This was found by five founding members, founding projects, and 60 founding members. Now today we are up to seven, including Baidu's open edge, which is going to be contributed into LF Edge. We're at 70 plus now, and we are working very closely with a lot of standardized community. So this is how edge looks at the landscape. So you can see from the top, you've got to collaborate with ORAN, then you have a project in Home Edge, which is the software that unifies the appliances inside the edge. Then you have Eve, which is the on-prem edge, comes into an Acreno blueprint, which is another project that glues everything together, and then moves into the core, running ONAP. ONAP works with Kubernetes and OpenStack, and then works with all the standards. Looks complex, but it is very, very nicely laid out, okay? And so that brings me to my third and very important point, which is we're not living in the world of isolation. Cloud Native is not on its own. Networking is not on its own. Edge, Blockchain, Cloud Foundry, these are all platforms that are collaborating, and it's very important. So I'm going to give you a few examples here. The first one is LF Networking is working very closely with Kubernetes to figure out how we can do a hybrid migration of VMs or VNFs to CNFs, okay? And CNFs are Cloud Native functions. They have a very specific characteristics, and we want to move them along. How does that happen? We have testbeds. We have ONAP working groups that collaborate, and they will come up with a solution for that, okay? Later on today, we'll have Brian talk about Blockchain, and this technology is extremely relevant to telecom, and we have the telecom SIG that will work closely with the LF Networking. So these are just, and here are the use cases. So these are just examples of projects and umbrellas working together to collaborate and make things happen. And when we make things happen, the stack looks very simple. At the end of the day, end users make money from these services, cloud services, residential services, enterprises services, or IoT AI services. And they run those services on infrastructure, data centers, carrier networks, cloud networks, and public or hybrid or private, doesn't matter. And then the layer in the middle is the plumbing. That's the glue. That needs to be automated, and that's the project focus for LF Networking, Edge, Kubernetes, LF AI, LF Edge, okay? So that's kind of the whole picture. So from my perspective, the key takeaways for this year in 2019, this is the year of collaboration, okay? And in telecom networks, open source has won. There is no more proprietary deployments all the way to RAN. However, there's a lot of innovation on top of the open source plumbing, as I call it. But ONAP is the chosen de facto platform. The Edge is completely fragmented this year, but we are bringing a unified edge together across IoT, telecom, enterprise, and cloud through the LF Edge program. And each of these will have blueprints in the various verticals, like automotive, energy, insurance, banking, et cetera, using several of the technology building blocks, okay? And finally, technologies and industries are extremely dependent on each other. And we will have major collaboration. So if you're in one project, please don't limit yourself to that one. Expand your horizon and come together as a total team. So with that, thank you very much. And I will be also hosting the rest of the session, but thanks for listening to me.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RxrVC9l1mY", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

If you are watching this video You are the narcissist source of supply. It can be difficult to tell when the narcissist has realized their time is up It may seem like you're no longer relevant to them But then they will pop up again when you least expect it. They drag you along for their own agenda Because they need constant attention and validation But when you no longer meet their needs They will begin to show opposition to you. They will make you work very hard to meet their standards and They will be verbally abusive or even physically abusive to you They will throw temper tantrums They will act like they're in a difficult situation and they need your help to pull you back into the relationship They will gaslight you they will blame you for everything. They will discard you They will start a smear campaign against you or they will completely ignore you in some situations They will come back to love-bomb you when the narcissist realizes their time is up They will discard you and they won't leave you with any closure So that it then leaves the door open for them to return to you But they only come back because of their anxiety or boredom Or because they're lonely They come back because they need your attention and validation And as long as you give that to them They will keep coming back Even if it's negative attention Because negative attention Sometimes gratifies the narcissist It makes them feel powerful and important And then they will flip it on you. They will use it against you When the narcissist discards you it may seem like they have realized their time is up But then they come back with a hoover They may try to pull you back in Even if they have a new supply They will get bored Just as they got bored of you the only definitive way To know that the narcissist has realized their time is up Is when you decide to no longer let them back into your life Because it's very rare that a narcissist will permanently leave their victim They always find a reason to come back Even when it may seem that they have moved on to someone else Because they still want power and control over you They still want to know that you want them Which is why they will keep coming back to you Even after months or years of no contact Because they want to pull you back into their world of drama and chaos So that they can feel powerful and important So that they can feel superior Which is what keeps them coming back again and again They live in a fantasy world And they depend on people to support their fantasy When they feel like their fantasy is likely to collapse They will do whatever it takes to restore it When the narcissist realizes their time is up When they realize they can no longer control you That is when they lose most of their power Because at that point you just see them as a fraud They become a laugh in stock Because they're pretending to be so important and serious But you know it's all a joke Because they're heavily dependent on you for their own survival Which is why they often act disinterested Which is why they get angry so easily Because they're trying to hide their own insecurities They use manipulation tactics to keep you engaged They make you feel hopeless As if the situation is impossible to deal with They lead you into having a great need or desire for something They make you reliant on them for support and survival While they constantly betraying you They know how to dial up certain emotions in you They can make you feel guilty or ashamed Or they can make you feel honored and loved But it's all fake Because they have a history of emotionally abusing you and manipulating you They just don't want you to realize your own self worth They don't want you to realize that you can do better That's why they insult you That's why they put you down That's why they minimize your accomplishments and sabotage your success Because they can't deal with the thought of you Living a life without them They see you as an object that exists to serve them And they want you to see yourself the same way They're very miserable people They're never satisfied with anything And that is why they have to abuse you Because that's what fills that void And the more you give them supply The more they will rely on you for that But that doesn't mean they're committed to you They just know that most people wouldn't put up with them But eventually They realize their time is up And they leave you without any closure Because they don't know how to end a relationship But they will pretend like they never needed you anyway They will act like you don't exist Or they will start a smear campaign against you But the truth is they needed you more than you needed them Which is demonstrated by their inability to give you closure They only need you so that they can abuse you Because they know they can't do that with other people They know that other people wouldn't tolerate it If you are with a narcissist Try not to worry too much about when their time is up You need to decide that you are done with them Instead of hoping that they're going to change They have a mental disorder And they have no interest in changing anything Because they're quite comfortable with how things are Thank you for watching I hope this video resonates with you Please like, comment, share and subscribe If you would like to donate My payback link Is in the video description Coaching inquiries You can email me at coachinganarchsviver.uk Thank you for watching and I'll talk to you soon	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rBnrbKpTfc", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

UCWnPjmqvljcafA0z2U1fwKQ	Rails Pacific 2016 - Continuous Learning, Teaching and... by Luis Ferreira	Continuous Learning, Teaching and the Art of Improving Yourself by Luis Ferreira If you have ever tried to learn how to code, you know how hard it is. If you succeeded at learning it, by now you should also be aware that it does not stop there. This talk will cover my personal experience in learning new things, consolidating knowledge and giving some of it back to the community through teaching. It provides many valuable lessons I have learned through years of making a concerted effort learn new subjects, from programming languages, to business practices you can apply at your own companies, to create a more welcoming environment for learners. Key points: * Learning how to learn * Taking the time to learn * Improving your personal productivity by being more organized * How, where and at what point in your career can you help the community by teaching Help us caption & translate this video! http://amara.org/v/Lf5x/	null	2016-06-09T16:32:40	2024-02-05T07:13:26	2,452	5r5pBg9RMdM	I eventually, I submitted, was a bit too big in the slide, so I cut it down to the main three topics I'm gonna talk about, which I feel are all related to each other, and that's kind of what I'm going to talk about here, it's about productivity, learning, and teaching. Ways I've managed to, or I think are good, to improve all of these in your lives and how they can relate to each other, okay? So let's start with productivity, and the first thing I want to talk about here is trying to define what is productivity, okay? Because learning and teaching, I think, are easier to define, so learning, you can simplify it as you're starting here by not knowing something and you end by knowing something, so whatever happens in between doesn't really matter. And in teaching, hopefully someone else starts by not knowing something and you help them get to knowing that something. But what about productivity? That's harder to define. So I looked it up on the Wikipedia page and I'm not gonna read all of this, but it basically says that it's a measurement of efficiency and that's output per unit of input, that's how you measure the efficiency of productivity. But what is this, right? So what is output, what is input? Is it lines of code? Don't really know. So this is actually the economics definition of productivity, so it probably doesn't apply. Let's look at, again, from Wikipedia, the programming productivity definition, and that takes quantity of software per cost of software. But again, what is quantity of software? Is it lines of code? Lines of tests? Lines of codes with dot bugs? Number of features that clients are happy with? Again, this is too hard of a problem and too much of a philosophical problem for us to discuss, I think, in 20 minutes, which are like 15 to 20 minutes, which is what I'm gonna spend in this section. So I'm gonna talk about something that I call perceived productivity. And the definition for that is that you're gonna reach the end of the day happy and confident that you did a good job. So you completed the task you had set up for that day, you're happy and you can go home, have quality time with it by yourself, your friends, your family, your dog, whatever, without feeling guilt that there's something you needed to do today that you didn't. To quote Game of Thrones here, like, who said this, me, right now? So I couldn't find a definition of this, but this is exactly what I wanted to talk about. There's a couple things I have been doing lately to try and achieve this, and that's what I wanted to share with you today. So the first thing that I think is very important is to plan your day. Like, this is something I started to do recently and has really improved my productivity or the way I feel about it. So this is very important for me. And I'm gonna go over like a couple of steps you can do to plan your day. So first one I would recommend is list all your tasks for the day. So this is, I usually do this the day before, okay? You just write them down wherever you want, just have a list of all the tasks. Next step is to prioritize those tasks, okay? You can do this in a lot of ways. I'm gonna show you two ways you can do this. There's one inherent way kind of implicit, that is you just do it ad hoc, just put whatever you think is more important, just put it to like the top of the list. But there are two more organized ways I'm gonna talk about. First one is called ABC analysis. It has like a fancy name, it's pretty easy. It's just like you give a letter to each task, and A means urgent and important, B important but not urgent, and C unimportant. So as you can probably imagine, if you give a C to a task, you can probably just drop that task, because it's not important. This is often put together with the Pareto rule, which says that you should, like 20% of the work should get you to 80% of your goal. So you can put the 20% tasks that will get you those 20% at the top. So this is one way. The other one is a bit more complex. It's called the Eisenhower method, and it comes from this quote from Dwight Eisenhower. And basically it divides your tasks into four quadrants. So urgent and important, not urgent and important, urgent and not important, and not urgent and not important. So looking at each of one of them, urgent and important means like your house on fire. So these are like big issues that you have to take care of right now. And the idea is that if you don't do them right now, at least plan them to be first. And this is something you have to do personally. You have to do it yourself. These quadrants, like not urgent and important, this is like recreation, exercising, this planning of the day, like this is important, but you don't have to do it right now. So you can set a deadline for them and do them personally again. Urgent and not important. These are like interruptions, meetings. These are stuff that you should delegate if possible. If you don't have to attend a meeting, delegate to someone else, okay? Not urgent and not important. This is busy work, time wasters, stuff, but it doesn't really matter. You should try to drop these activities as much as possible. Now, once you have all the tasks for the day that are prioritized, it's important to write them somewhere that you won't forget, right? For these, I use a tool called Action Ally. I don't know if you've heard of it. I think it's a Mac-only tool, but there you can use anything. This one, it's really nice. It has an overlay over your screen. So whenever you're not doing anything, your tasks are just there in your face. So you don't forget them. I highly recommend it. It's a paid app, but it's like a one-time payment, so if you use it every day, it's a good deal. Another thing that I would like to recommend is do not set times for each task, okay? I think it's very hard to plan your day in terms of I'm gonna do this task first and I'm gonna do it from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. This will set you up for failure, I think. Because you're gonna go over time on some tasks, some are gonna be shorter. And what if you have an hour and it takes half an hour? Are you going to go on Twitter for the other half? It's not a good way to plan your day, I think. And I also think that we should be getting better at time management, so doing more with your time and not at time allocation or estimation. I think that's a hard problem that we don't wanna solve in our lives, per se. So time management, I feel, is important. So you have your tasks and you should manage your time to be able to accomplish those tasks. That's the more important thing. In terms of time management, like this sound like get things done, okay? So this sounds like very basic thing, but if you prioritize your tasks correctly and you consistently get things done, you'll be in a very good place at the end of every day, okay? And I stress this just because sometimes you're focusing on a lot of stuff and you forget like to get things done. One way I like to do this is, I know you've heard of the Pomodoro Technique, but I said this is an adaptation of that. Like the Pomodoro Technique has a lot of stuff. I'm just gonna focus on one major thing about it. And it basically just states that you should do around 25 minutes of uninterrupted work. This means like forget everything else in the world, focus on the unit of work you have at hand, so your task, and then take five minutes break to celebrate, to stretch your legs, talk to someone else. Like if someone wanted to interrupt you then, ask them to interrupt you when you finish with your Pomodoro. Okay, Action Ally, that's what I just mentioned, also allows you to do this. For each task that you have planned, you can say I wanna do like 25 minute work and it will set up an alarm like five minutes before to let you know it's ending and stuff like that. Now, this is all nice and theoretical, but what if you, like I do, what if you work in an open space? Like how can you achieve 25 minutes uninterrupted work? I bet if you have worked in an open space before, you felt the pain of like having a lot of noise, a lot of people around you. One thing that I feel is important when you are working in a setup like this is to be able to control your interruptions, okay? So people can interrupt you, but on your own terms. First thing I would say is to set alarms. I set alarms for like everything, so you don't forget, like if you're doing Pomodoro's, like after 25 minutes, you have an alarm. If you need to do something at like one hour after, set an alarm, okay? Like someone wants to talk to you, set an alarm to talk to them, whatever you're able to. Slack, we use Slack internally and Slack has a functionality for this. It has like a remind command that you can just say remind me of whatever at this time. It will remind you, so that's how I use alarms, but again, anything, you can use your phone, alarms, whatever, but do set those alarms. This is good for another reason, that is it takes your mind off of the things that you should do at that time. Once you set an alarm, you can forget it. Like once the alarm goes off, you can think about it again. So this kind of clears your mind to work on what you're working on at the moment. Again, I think it's very important to be responsive on your own terms when working in an open space environment. And this means that you should have a way to communicate to your team that you're not available, okay? It can be like you have your headphones on, that means do not disturb. There are a couple of products right now in the market, like for one that's just like a piece of wood. That has two colors, like red and white, and you just turn it around. Like there's a lot of stuff you can do to just say I'm available. Set do not disturb on Slack. Slack has the functionality now. Or quit it entirely, just quit Slack when you're not available. If you can, go to a separate office. If not, that's bad. But be sure to explain those signals to your team. Do not assume that they know that because you have headphones, you don't want to be disturbed, okay? Like talk to your team and let them know. If I have my headphones on, do not disturb me. But one thing that I also feel is important to like for you to be able to be responsive on your own terms is to not always be offline, okay? Like be aware that if you're working in a team, that team might need you sometimes. So if you're doing the Pomodoro technique, it's easier, you have every 25 minutes, you have five minutes, but I'll say at least every hour, take some time to look at what people want from you. Otherwise, it's gonna be hard, at least in my experience, it's gonna be hard to work in a team. One thing that I feel personally, and I think a lot of people do, about setting not disturb on Slack or quitting Slack, is something called the Fear of Missing Out, also known as FOMO. And I think like you really need to try to control that. For one of the main reasons, that's probably one of the main reasons you don't want to leave Slack in the first place, because you think something super exciting is gonna happen and you're gonna miss it. There's actually now a product called, not a product, like an open source project, called FOMO Box, that you can put in your Slack, like Slack channels, and it will measure activity on how many people are talking, and it's like more than three or more people talking a lot more than usually in that channel, it'll let you know, but probably something interesting happen. So if you're afraid of that, you can use FOMO Box. But in general, if something really matters, you will know about it, okay? If there's something on fire, someone will get up and tell you, like hey, you need to really work on this right now. So it's usually okay if you turn off your email, your Slack for long stretches of time, like if something really matters, you'll know about it. One other thing that I find, and I have to be honest, a hard time doing this still, but I think is important in order to be productive, is to have daily routines. This is often perceived as bad, like to have like something that you do, like it's every day the same thing, but they are very good for productivity. This is things that you do not need to figure out every day. If you do them the same way every day, you don't need to think about them. For instance, have a routine that means it's time to work. Lately, about two months ago, I started doing what I call daily standup videos, pretty much for myself, but I basically record myself on, like I have a standup with myself, saying like what I done yesterday, what I'm doing today, and what's blocking me. I record a video, about a minute video, and I put it in a Slack channel so everyone on my team can see like what I'm doing if they want, but it's also something that I do every day before going to work. So for me, it just switches my mind into like work time. It's also good to have a routine that means time to switch off. I know some people that just like put everything on the right order in the desk and just say computers switch off or whatever, like just have something in your life that means start working, stop working. Or else you're in the risk of just working all day and all night. Get up and go to bed at the same time. I have a hard problem with this, but it would be nice if you have a routine there. Famously, Steve Jobs and now Mark Zuckerberg have this routine of always resting the same way. Like because that's one less thing that they have to think about every day. So just clear ahead and do whatever you have to do. A bit apart and now these more focused for like developers, which I think most of you are. I think your editor should be there to help and not to fight you. So regardless of the editor you use, I think you should be able to run tests from your editor, assuming that you have a test suit that I think most people do or that you do TDD, especially important, but running a test from the editor, if you have to leave the editor to run your tests, that's painful, I feel. You should be able to extract repetitive tasks into shortcuts. I think most editors support this, so do try to be conscious about stuff that you do every day. That's boring, repetitive, like busy work, and put that into shortcuts. You should be able to change files at the pace of your thoughts. And I think this is important. There are a lot of like fuzzy searchers now for editors. This is very important. Like if you have to keep thinking about, what's the structure of the project? Where's that file? That's just time wasted. And I think you also should, if you haven't, you should learn to touch type. It's also a major product you boosted. At least it was for me when I took some time to actually kind of not look at the keyboard. So any editor that you use please try to do this, I think, and there's more things. I think these are the most important ones. So wrapping up this section of the talk, the main things out I think are important in terms of improving your productivity every day is to plan it. Cannot stress is enough. Planning each day is great. Like you know what you have to do, you don't have to think about it, and you can see like the progress of your day going on. And improving your time management skills I think is also important. Things I've talked about like the Pomodoro technique and being able to know like, okay I'm gonna work on this task for this long, like uninterrupted, and this is gonna go fine. Like if I work uninterrupted on a task for 25 minutes, regardless of where the task is in terms of completion, I know that I gave my best for those 25 minutes. And if I do this all day, I can end the day feeling fine because I gave my best entirely. Like if I haven't done more, it's because like what I can do is not enough to get to that. So and that kind of links to the next section of this talk that is if I'm not, at this point I'm not good enough to do more with the time that I have, even if I can plan a lot and I can manage a lot, but if I just don't have the skills, then I'm not able to do enough. So one thing that I'm preaching here is to try to learn every day, every week, all the time, keep learning so that you can, so there's like a feedback loop so you can do more with your time. So you can manage and do more tasks better. In terms of learning, I'm gonna separate this into two subsections. So things you can do as an individual. So yourself, anyone can do this and things you can do in your company. So as an individual, the first thing, again, this seems very simple and very straightforward, but sometimes it's not. Just be conscious and make an effort and take the time to learn. So if you don't take the time to learn, you'll never be able to learn anything. This seems like very simple, but it's not always, so I do stress that this is important. One thing that you can try to do, and this will really speed up your learning, is try to find a mentor. It can be in your company, if you work in a company where you have someone more senior than you or that you look up to, look at, like ask them if they can help you out. Outside of your company, even internationally, a lot of people, if you reach out to them, if they have time, they're more than willing to help you and guide you in like choosing what to learn because I feel that, I think Godfrey talked about this yesterday. I think this is one of the hardest things as someone that's learning is what to learn next. And if you have someone with more experience that you respect, that's a very good way to learn. So if you can, do try to find a mentor. Now in terms of learning, we have a lot of places where we can get input. Like we can read books, read articles, can listen to podcasts, attend conferences like this one. There's a lot of stuff we can do. So there's a lot of information out there. But how do we take this information and what we do with it is the most important thing. So there's this dichotomy between learning and doing and how much you should be doing of each. And so when should you stop learning and start doing? Because if you're just learning, if you're learning all the time, you're not gonna be able to apply it. I think this is true for everyone. If you're just learning, you're not learning the details of it. It's not sticking in your head. Like you need to apply it as well. So you need to strike a balance here. But it's super hard to know when to stop learning. So when have I learned enough that I can do something or when have I done too much that I'm just not doing good work and I need to go back and learn some. I'm a fan of this thing called just-in-time learning. And this is actually a thing. I didn't make it up. And what it states is that you should only learn what you need right now. And the reason for this is that a lot of your knowledge will probably become obsolete. Like if you're, for instance, if you're learning social media. Social media work and SEO stuff, that changes a lot. If you spend like a month learning it today and you only need to use it like two years from now, it's probably completely outdated. And this works for a lot of stuff. Like for instance, I'm now learning Elixir, but the goal is to get client projects in it and to do like real work on it. If I stop working on it, my knowledge right now in a year will probably be obsolete. Now, that being said, it's also important, I think, to not stop learning. So this very technical things and specific things, it's good that you just learn them when you need them. But it's also important that you learn a lot, like from every area of life. And like go out of your comfort zone, broaden your horizons, because that's where best ideas will come from. So if you learn from a lot of different things, that's the mix of areas and domains is I think would make the best ideas. So keep reading books, keep learning stuff. But also have in mind that this is not necessarily, so if you're going to read the book and you don't need it right now, don't necessarily think that you have to understand everything that's there or you have to learn everything that's there. It's more as a tool for you to have in your back of your head. If sometime you need it, you know something about it and you can relate to it. And you know where you learn that and go back to that. This relates a bit to what the panel was discussing yesterday about college, like in everyone not remembering pretty much anything that happened in college. That's not exactly true. You learn stuff and you can relate back to that if you really need it. Probably even if you don't know everything about it right now. As a company, and this is if you are in a position of changing your company culture or influencing someone who can. There is a lot of stuff that you can adopt I think as company-wide practices that will help make your company a company where people can learn. A lot of this what I'm going to go through right now is stuff that we do at Subvisual, my company, and my personal experience. So pairing, if you haven't tried it, you should. It's a good, especially good way of tackling new problems that you have no idea how to tackle. This is very good to learn. Even if you're at the same level, it's good, you're gonna learn something. If it's someone that knows less than you, it's also good. You're gonna see different things happening. If it's someone more senior than you, it also works. So pairing is a very nice way of learning new ways of working, new workflows, new, like in terms of the development, like new commands for the bash that people use that you don't, like new techniques, everything. So I really enjoy pairing people. Like now as a company-wide thing, we have four hackathons a year, and I recommend doing this. If you can in your company, just take a full day and do a hackathon. Doesn't, some interesting projects might come out of it, but even if not, it's just good for team members that don't usually work with each other to do that. So you have some cross-pollination of ideas and knowledge, and I think that's good, especially if you have a big company with big teams, like you can, people can know each other, they can relate, and learn different things. It's also good to work on different problems, different technologies, so if you're doing mostly the same thing every day, this is a good way to have an escape from that. Another thing that we do is, I call it development meetings, but this could mean anything. What this means is that we hold monthly meetings, and as of late, we start doing something that I've been really enjoying, and it's the, these development meetings are mostly a show-and-tell moment, where everyone can have like five minutes to show a small side project. New technique is learned, so it's a great way again to disseminate knowledge throughout the, across the company. So very interesting, someone is doing anything they can just go there, okay, I'm gonna show you this. Really enjoying it, highly recommended. Something we have been doing for a while now, we call them Friday talks, you can call them Monday talks, whatever. It's just on Friday, on the lunch, the company pays for the lunch, and someone always, someone has at least one talk, usually two, about whatever, like this is me speaking, giving this exact talk last week at the Friday talk to prepare it, but anything's good for this Friday talks. Every week, we have a talk about a topic, big or small, doesn't really matter. It can be management, it can be anything, so I would also recommend having this as a good way of sharing knowledge, and this is because of my company, we have like awear consultancy, so we have a bunch of small teams working on different projects for clients, and a lot of times, we don't work with each other, we have different technologies we're working with, so it's a good way for everyone to be kind of in the same page. Another thing we do is book clubs, so it's pretty much what the name says, it shows a book, and you read it as a group, and this is good, oh, and every week we have a meeting to discuss the chapter we just read, if it has exercises, we do them and discuss the code, if not, there's other things you can do, but this is also a great way to both share knowledge, and for me personally, take advantage of peer pressure to finish a book, because as there was talk, like someone said yesterday, I think, Godfrey again, he has, I also have the problem of not being able to finish books. I started reading them, and at some point, like midway, I lose interest, and this is a good way to have someone else like pressure you in a good sense to finish those books. Takeaways for this section of the talk is, again, take the time to learn, be aware of balancing learning with doing, because both things are important, and if you can, use your company as a learning catalyzer to help you grow, it's very good if you're in a company that is interested in helping you grow. I'm gonna interrupt this for a mandatory commercial break, where I'm gonna talk about my company really fast, so as I said, we're a consultancy based in Braga, we're opening an office in Boston, and so if you're interested in talking more about this, or consultancy in general, development, whatever, please do come talk to me, and also we are the organizers of RubyConf Portugal, it's happening in October this year, so you can buy tickets already, the CFP is open, if you want to send me the talk, please do. We have a pretty good lineup for this year, have Aaron Patterson, Martin Toller, you're the cats that are gonna be there, so I think it's a very nice conference, and if you've never been to Portugal, you should definitely go there. That was it, that's the commercial break. All right, now onto the last section of the talk, I'm gonna, it's the smaller one, I'm gonna talk about teaching. I didn't really talk about myself, but apart from my company, I also teach classes to different universities, and I teach at a local boot camp as well, so I have some experience teaching people Rails, mostly, the web in general, and this is some of the things I learned, and some of the things that I want to tell you about teaching, sorry. The most important thing, and the most difficult one, it was for me, and I think it's important for everyone that's starting to teach, is to leave your ego aside, like when you're teaching, and even right now when I'm giving this conference talk, I'm hopefully teaching you something. This is not about me, okay? This is about you, it's about people that are getting the message, and the quicker that you get to that mindset, the better you're gonna be able to teach something to someone. This is from Phil Collins' song, but in teaching you will learn. I really do believe this, this is very cliche, but it ends up being true in most situations. It helps you both get out of your comfort zone, helps you get beginner's eyes again, beginner's eyes again, which we sometimes lose that mentality, just like you've been working probably on Ruby and Rails for so long, that you do not see it from the eyes of someone that's just starting with it, and that's important as well. You'll be surprised how much you can learn from that. It's also a good way to meet new people, if you are teaching in the broad sense of the word, like in conferences, meetups, it's a very good way to meet new people. One thing that I really like to stress, and this is the most common people I think I see with people in general, is that they think they cannot teach because they have nothing to teach. It's never too early to teach, and there is always someone who is just where you were. Regardless of what you just learned, there's someone that is trying to learn that, so you can at least teach them. So please do teach wherever you can. It can be like a blog post, it can be whatever, like you do a short video, podcast, whatever you want to do, please do it. The world is better for that, I think, because sometimes the best teachers is not someone who knows a lot about a topic, because they can be completely distanced of what a beginner needs to know right now. I think that's why bootcamps, a lot of times take alumni from those bootcamps and integrate them into teaching, like the faculty, and I think that works really well. Now you can say, I have no idea what or where to teach, how do I do that? So in terms of what to teach, like as I said, wherever you're learning right now and you're interested in right now, teach that, like pay it forward. Now, where to teach? You can look at the community in general, there's loads of places where you can teach. You can teach at universities, probably the hardest one to get in, but if you can, if you have a CS degree, go to your university, ask if you can teach, I don't know, there's a couple of things you can do there, but if you can, or even, so this is my university, it's me giving a crash course on Rails, it's not actually a class, so there's always workshops and stuff that you can propose in your local universities. You can talk at conferences, there's a lot of conferences, okay, and you can submit talks to them and sometimes you get accepted, like I did to come here, which is really nice. You get to know new places, new people, it's a very good way of sharing and getting something out of it as well. If there's a bootcamp where you leave, you can try to teach there as well, we actually created one, and so this is a picture from that. So this is, again, a way you can teach, this is very intensive if you ever try to do it, but it's a good way to teach people. If you have local meetups, you can try and speak there. Usually meetups are desperate to find people to speak, so if you have one here, this is a very good place to start and usually a smaller crowd and that's a place where you can improve your speaking skills, test your talks, so I again recommend talking at meetups and if there's no meetups, then just start one. That's what we did in Braga where I live. Again, Friday talks, coming back to this, a very good way to improve your speaking skills and a very easy way to start speaking because it's, in your company, to your people that you work with every day, it's very easy to get in, like there's no approval process or anything, like it's pretty easy to talk there. Mentoring, if you can do it, like one-on-one mentoring, stuff like that, we have some of it, like we have an apprentice program and that includes a bit of mentoring, I don't have any pictures though, but if you can and want and feel that, you can help someone, please do. There's also events, all kinds of events related to programming where you can teach someone something, like this is a picture of Kodor Dojo, I don't know if you've heard of the, like this is an international thing, to teach programming to kids and this is happening in my university, yeah, we also started this and every Saturday morning, like kids go here and they can learn to code, now they just got Raspberry Pi's and they're gonna do stuff with that, so it's an interesting, another interesting thing you can do, if it doesn't exist, you can just create it as well. Now, takeaways from this section is that, I think you should care about your students, as I said, put your ego aside, this is about the people that are learning. There is always someone you can teach, I see so many people that have very interesting stories to share and very interesting knowledge and they're just afraid that no one will care or that is not good enough, it is, just share it and actively look for places where you can share that. Now, all this I've said is very good, but it's also okay if you don't want to do any of this, but you do have to be prepared to face the consequences of that, which I feel is or are that your knowledge can become obsolete or too specific and this becomes very hard for you to change jobs or if you get fired, very hard to find a new one. I see a lot of people that just have this knowledge, this is what I do, I work nine to five and I don't care and that might be problematic or not, but just be aware that that might be a thing. One of the major things that you will not do, I think, and this I think is important, that you will not build your personal brand and I don't know if this is stress enough, but having a personal brand is very important, like being active in social media and by social media I also mean like GitHub, which is kind of social media right now, but so having open source contributions, being active on Twitter, talking at conferences, putting yourself out there is very good, like you'll know a lot of new people, you put yourself in a position to meet new people, probably working at interesting places and if you ever want to change jobs, you probably can get a better job than you would if you're just sitting at home watching TV. But most importantly of all, I think you'll miss out on the joy of learning. At least I feel this every time I learn something new and I can apply it and it works, I'm very happy. So at the end of the day, I think that's the most important thing, you should be proud of what you do, you should be happy and I think that's what we're all for here, so thanks.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5r5pBg9RMdM", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Welcome to another week of Science. This is This Week in Science. We are back again to talk about all the things that we thought we would bring to the program today. And as you all know, this is the broadcast of our podcast. So some of the things in the next hour or so maybe edit it out for the podcast version. So what you're watching is- Raw live version. Raw live version. So, but it's going to be interesting because Justin's going to be very quiet today in VR voicing because his baby's still sleeping. So don't wake the baby, Justin. I'll try not to. I'm really, I'm very actually afraid that I will forget. Try not to get too excited about concrete. Yes. My child is sleeping and say something loud. And then there'll be this shrill. Wow. Daddy, what have you done? I've done it. Why don't you be with me right now? All right, everyone. We are going to do this science show and we'll be with you for the next couple of hours talking science. We're glad you are here with us. So I guess as we get started, make sure you click those likes and those bells and all the things and make sure that the algorithms love us. So let's start the show. Oh, wait, that's Blair, not me. Hey, you want to do it? Yeah. I click a button. It turns into Blair. We do a thing. It's all good. Yeah, that's just the way it's going to work. All right, let us begin like Caesar, like Romain in a three, two, this is twist. This week in science episode number 909, recorded on Wednesday, January 18th, 2023. Laser guided lightning, very, very frightening. I'm Dr. Kiki. And today we'll fill your head with lightning nonsense and snot bubbles, but first. Disclaimer, disclaimer, disclaimer. The following program is all about science. Not about all science I would take too long to listen to. This is just a slice of recent science. A peak into the ongoing efforts within research to reassure you that sane work is being done somewhere in the world. And to get your mind thinking. Not that it wasn't already about what a truly wonderful mystery we are surrounded by with all the things we know already, with all the discoveries and inventions that have come before. New knowledge has a certain excitement about it. You can feel almost inevitable at times when a new technology or therapy is unveiled, but there is, along the way, incremental advances. Simple mechanisms understood, previously missed observations noted, concise experimentation conducted. And through it all, the step-by-step data point by data point gathering of knowledge builds upon our previous understanding to make the mysterious mundane. The mundane, manageable, and the previously unimaginable as routine as a self-driving electric car or a novel-virus rapid home test. Or another episode of This Week in Science, coming up next. ["Science To You Kiki and Blair"] I've got the kind of mind that can't get enough. I wanna learn everything. I wanna discover reason happen every day of the week. There's only one place to go to find the knowledge I seek. I wanna know. Good science to you, Kiki and Blair. And a good science to you too, Justin, Blair, and everyone out there. Welcome to another episode of This Week in Science. We're back again to talk about all the science that we wanted to talk about this week, and we think that you will enjoy as well. Don't wake the baby. Okay, we have a whole bunch of science coming your way. Thank you for joining us for the show today. On the show tonight, I have stories about aging mice, solar flares, and vagrant birds. Yeah, Justin, what'd you bring? I've got laser-guided lightning, self-healing Romans, ancient Norwegian nonsense, and an anti-matastic peptide fantastic story. Wow, okay, I wanna hear about that one. Blair, what's in the animal corner? Oh, I have the snot bubbles that you mentioned earlier. Very excited to talk about that. Also, I have some dogs and toddlers always fun in a room together, and then intentional invasives. How's that for an oxymoron? Yes. Like humans. I want to go there. You're right. You're invited? Invited? Are they invited? Yeah, it's a whole thing. We're gonna talk about it. Yeah, I can't wait. I'm looking forward to it. All right, as we jump into the show, for those of you who know, you already know, but those of you who don't, if you have not subscribed yet to our podcast, we have podcasts. You can find us all places podcasts are found. We also stream weekly Wednesday nights, eight o'clock p.m. Pacific time on YouTube, Twitch, and Facebook, we are- And then again, and then again we do the same thing at five a.m. central European time. It's all at the same time. It's time zones, Justin. It's just the same thing if people are up that early. Yeah, okay. But you can find us on Twitter and Mastodon and Instagram and Twitch as Twist Science, T-W-I-S-C-I-E-N-C-E. If all of this is just so much, head to twist.org. That's our website. Show notes, links, all that kind of stuff is found there. Time for the science? Yes. Let's do it. Okay, let's make this show happen. Scientists want to predict the future. Of course they do. Of course they do. Researchers, NASA researchers have been working recently using NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory to take a look at various layers of the sun's atmosphere to determine the dynamics of the photosphere, the chromosphere, the corona, all of these various layers that may give some kind of information about what kind of energy the sun is going to just impart on us, solar weather. It affects us. From those solar flares that are just energetic and impact our magnetosphere to the ones that are really, really energetic and can actually impact our satellites and all of the electrical systems on our planet, overloading capacitors. I mean, things could happen and we want to be ready. We want to know what's happening in terms of the sun's activity. Solar flares, we know are a big part of this. And so how could little flashes on the sun be like a little match that starts the fire that becomes an eventual flare that will impact us? And so the researchers have been taking look. They just published in the Astrophysical Journal their information from the corona that's different from the photosphere which is the surface of the sun. And they've discovered a marker actually that allows them to determine which areas are going to flare sooner rather than later. Which areas are gonna stay quiet and which ones are not? So this particular paper, and there's another paper that's published as well that has publicly available data from the SDO, the Solar Dynamics Observatory, has been taking a look at images of these active regions in ultraviolet and extreme ultraviolet light. So stuff that's not in the human visible spectrum. I mean, ultraviolet light, you can maybe take a look at just at sunset, right? But ultraviolet light, extreme ultraviolet light, these are things that are outside of our visible spectrum, but they are energetic spectrums and we can look at them with various instruments. And so they've been able to take a look at eight years of images of these active regions and based on statistical methods that are developed by a team member named Graham Barnes, they have determined that there are little tiny flashes in the corona that precede the actual flares. And so it's kind of like trying to figure out when a volcano is gonna erupt here on earth, what are the little signals or little shakes that'll allow us to have a little bit of warning before a flare happens? So once we see a blast going off, I'm trying to figure out my brain is trying to wrap around this. It takes eight minutes for that light to travel. I don't know how long a solar flare takes to reach, probably not far behind that eight minutes. However, if we're doing an observation, we need the light to have traveled for eight minutes. So now aren't we finding out that it's happening as it's happening? No, because we don't have FTL communication with the Solar Dynamics Observatory. So it's all time shifted, but because we're seeing the flare before, I mean, the little flash of light, there's a little tiny flash of light, right? We see a flash, we go, oh, we could be ready for this. And if it's something that's pointed at us, we can potentially take action because we'll have maybe a little longer than eight minutes to be ready. But that flash happened eight minutes ago on the sun. Right, but the flare comes after the flash. Yeah, yeah, okay, yeah, okay. We have time. Yeah, it's a warning system. If it takes a while to develop, we would have time, like maybe we're like, oh, this is developing, but it takes a month or something. Maybe the Earth will be pointed somewhere else or somewhere else or slightly around to the sun. Yeah. Or if it's a 12 hour, it's like, ah, I don't hit the other side of the world. We'll be fine. That's really the question is, what is the general range of warning that we would get from this? Yeah. Well, it's better than volcanoes currently. So, which is maybe 30 seconds. It still seems like it's not enough time to shield all of our electronics. We should probably do that hardening first, regardless. Absolutely, but there's not a lot that we can do about our satellites. I mean, is eight minutes enough time to signal to our satellites to power down for a period of time? Is the flare going to be the kind of flare that's so powerful that it just burns out electrical components and satellites, regardless of whether they're turned on or not? There's a lot that still needs to be determined, but this is the beginning of developing that early warning system that will allow us to be able to make potential changes down here on Earth. But yeah, you're exactly right. We need to strengthen our electrical transport systems, our infrastructure here anyway. There's a lot that we just need to be doing differently. But yeah. So basically we figured out there's a precursor. Now is the time to collect just heaps and heaps and heaps of data to figure out what kind of precursor on average it is to then be able to toy with things that we can do to, okay, got it. Yeah. I also appreciate that these researchers did not take the advice they were given as children and have been staring at the sun. I mean, you got them. Yeah, they do it, so we don't have to. Thank you very much for ruining your vision. The laser beams, that's another thing you're not supposed to look at. What have you been staring at, Justin? Never stared a laser beam. So this story goes back a little bit. Back in 1769. Oh, that's a lot bit. That's a lot of it. Lightning hit a church in northern Italy. So while this sort of thing happened occasionally to tall buildings, it still does, this time it resulted in a tremendous amount of damage as the church exploded. It blew up, showering large stones of the church over a half a mile away, destroying much of the surrounding city, killing many hundreds of the townsfolk. The reason, the lightning rod, which had already been invented by Ben Franklin, hadn't made its way to the small town at the foot of the Alps yet. That, and for some reason, the church was storing 100 tons of gunpowder in the basement. And then the lightning kaboom. There's a combination of factors. Yeah, that's what we do with it. The importance of lightning rods to divert lightning strikes from buildings has become well adopted. In fact, this is considered the event that worldwide got people's attention to Ben Franklin's invention. Lightning rods start going up very shortly after this and places that hold hazardous material in the light. And nowadays we have them everywhere they're incorporated, even if we don't see them. So this all makes us safer from lightning strikes. Unknown if churches are still stockpiling gunpowder. There's not been an update on that. The Empire State Building is a lightning rod to top it, diverting some 25 strikes per year from itself in the surrounding buildings, transmitting all that energy safely underground. On a mountain in northeastern Switzerland, sits an 124 meter tall telecommunications tower that is one of the most struck by lightning structures on the planet with over 100 strikes per year. Partly this is due to being just closer to the action on top of this mountain. And partly because the size of the tower acting as a lightning rod, the way it works is it attracts lightning strikes from an area twice as wide as the tower is tall. Sort of the basic lightning rod math on what a lightning rod can protect. So it was the perfect location for Swiss and French researchers to test out their latest invention, a laser guided lightning rod. Wow. They used, so this has been tried before but lasers as much as we can maybe see them in the night or on a sort of misty night, they tend to dissipate. So in this experiment, they used intense short laser pulses that were fired very close to the tower at a thousand times greater rate than it has been attempted before in similar experiments. So they essentially were competing against the tower for the lightning strikes. The laser pulses are very intense and they are intense enough to ionize air molecules creating narrow channels of ionization, laser pulses over these long distance. This is that create a sort of ionized filaments in the air. The air mouth, oh gosh, hang on a second. I have no idea why Siri is popping in here to try to talk to me. Okay, the laser pulses are intense enough to ionize air molecules creating narrow channels of ionizing laser pulses over long distances along these regions. Air molecules are rapidly heated by the absorbed laser energy and expelled radially at supersonic speed leaving behind these long lived channels of air that have reduced density. Reduced density air is the path that lightning travels when it's a downward strike. So these low channel density channels just millisecond in duration have higher conductivity than the surrounding air and therefore the lightning decides to go that way. So you can make your lightning rods way taller, basically. Yeah, so the idea is, and okay, great, we have these pictures up here. Now, in this experiment, you can see that it caught the lightning and then the lightning chooses the rod again later. And it's only grabbed it from about 50 meters. So it's not yet at the point where you're talking about where you can have the lightning rod that goes all the way up to the atmosphere or something like this. This is, but in this experiment, they proved that it's possible. They proved that it's possible to use a laser to, as a lightning rod, to divert the path of lightning coming down. Also interesting is that there's a potential that they could use this to trigger lightning, to actually do a discharge that didn't naturally happen. So part of this is they're talking about, yes, we could use this to protect things like launch sites, sensitive installations, places that you'd be very afraid of having be hit by lightning at certain times. Although if you're launching a rocket, you should be doing it during the day when there's a clear day without lightning strikes, but still. And see these pictures that we've put up here, the top ones, you can see where it's kind of captured the lightning and the ones at the bottom are ones, strikes that have happened without the laser on and where it just naturally hits that lightning line. So you can kind of see the difference when it's doing the diversion. But the other thing that might be that it's just, if you can prompt a discharge, and I don't understand why this tower doesn't have some sort of energy generation, batteries, free spinning kinetic wheel or something to capture this energy. It seems like you could just use it as an energy capture method at some point. That's cool. Yeah, but then at some point you're like, oh wait, we needed that electricity in the atmosphere because it's holding everything together. I don't know. So it's not gonna stay in the atmosphere anyway because usually this energy is finding the easiest path to the ground, right? So this is a way for the atmosphere to discharge into the ground. Now that said, there are potential reasons that it might be beneficial to have it go into the ground. Or it is a preemptive. If you're really worried that there's a big electrical storm is looming over a town or a facility or something like this, it might be a smart thing to do to discharge it with lasers in a controlled environment versus having these lightning strikes all over the place. So anyway, this is published in the current edition of Nature Photonics Online. They say there is more research needed. I think so. Fair. But this is the first proof of concept outside of a laboratory experiment that actually successfully diverted lightning strikes from nature and with a laser. Pretty cool. Cool. All right, so high intensity, ionizing lasers, short, high frequency bursts. Oh, and one important note that I left out. They can control where these pulses are ionizing the air in such a way that they can get it to begin a kilometer away from the laser. Oh, whoa. Which then allows it to, you know, when it comes down, it can divert to a proper lightning rod as opposed to blowing up the laser every time, like making it all the way back to the laser. Don't come back to the power source. A little bit of control of where I suppose the wavelengths are building up for these pulses. That's cool. That is, That crouchy gamer. You know, shooting lasers into space. Do we really want to do that? Yeah, we might attract a little attention now. We've been doing this, I think, so it's too late. Yeah, your planet was shooting at us when we flew by. Whoa, what's up with that? Oh, sorry. You're just having a light show. Yeah, just a nice little rave. I remember one year at Burning Man, there were some NASA JPL dudes who had a big laser and they were encoding messages from people at Burning Man that they sent out to Alpha Centauri. So who knows what people messaged Alpha Centauri with on that night? Yeah, they only know about Burning Man attendees. That's interesting. That's not too terrible, I guess. I don't know. You could do worse. What about dogs? It could be much worse. What about dogs, Blair? We could get ahold of our internet. Yeah, really. Well, dogs, so if you enter a room with a dog in it, are you compelled to interact with that dog? I know I am. Not at all. And more specifically, I know you're not Justin, I knew, I didn't do that. More specifically, if there was a dog and there was a toy, like under the couch or something and you could see it and they were trying to get at it, would you grab that toy with your nice opposable thumb and hand it to that dog? Yes, yes I would. Yeah, probably. Yeah, I would do it. So a sample group of children age two to three years were twice as likely to help a dog reach a toy or treat when the animal showed interest than if it did not. So Justin, you just proved that hypothesis, actually. Children were more likely to help the dogs get the out of reach items if they already lived with a pet dog. It's definitely helped. Prime them to how dogs work, right? And if the dogs were live layer, so if they showed interest in the toy or if the item was in fact a treat rather than a toy seems like these toddlers are more keyed into the idea of feeding the dogs than retrieving a toy for them. So this experiment was 97 toddlers, 51 girls, 46 boys between 20 and 47 months. They were all from middle-class families in and around the city of Ann Arbor, Michigan and surrounding towns. So this definitely needs replicating. The majority of children were white. The rest were multiracial black or African-American, Latino or Asian. 71% of them were white though. So this is like pretty skewed. Why would there be a difference? I don't get it. It's just culturally, right? If you, especially if you are raised in a house with a dog versus not with a dog, like it's, we don't know what's linked, right? So this is just a potential. Or rural versus urban. Yes, absolutely. So I grew up out in the country and the way that I thought about animals growing up is not the way that people think about animals now, like, you know, for babies was not the thing out in the country. No, livestock impacts very different type of animal. If you have predominantly white researchers looking at predominantly white children, there can be skewing of results in observation. So there's all sorts of things, just basically you have to watch your variables, right? So the thing that I think would skew the results the most is whether or not the dog had a flat stout or a big pointy one. Well, you can see the three dogs right now. It is Fiona, Henry and Seymour. Is Henry in the middle? Three dogs. I don't know. If it's the one in the middle who's got a long nose, I bet that one would be the most successful. Because partly, I think it's, you know, the toddlers are recognizing the dog with its forward-facing eyes or looking at an object. That's part of it. But the nose, if you've got a dog with a long nose, it's almost like they're pointing. But see, again, it depends what kind of dog they have at home. That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. I think dogs depend. If they have a pug at home, then they might respond better to Seymour. It depends, right? It depends on experience dependent. Yeah. If it's a pug, it's looking to the side and up at the same time. This might also be... You have no idea what that dog was. Why they picked these three dogs, they would do it all the different. And it also might be why we should listen to the results of the study. We'll be determined. I'm trying to make my decision. I've gotten there. So, 44 of the children had dogs at home. 53 did not. The toddlers... See, this is... Oh, this is between 2015 and 2020. This was a lot of results over kind of a long period of time. The toddlers gave out-of-reach treats and toys in 50% of all events. Great. However, they offered dogs objects they ignored only half as often on only 26% of occasions. So, if the dog was specifically paying attention to the item, they were much more likely to hand it to them. So, if this is independent of whether or not they have a dog at home, this particular metric, that means that toddlers can pick up on the body language that the dog is giving, saying, I want this thing that I can't get. But then, separately, having a dog at home also had an impact on how good they were at grabbing things for the dog, but that makes sense because they're used to handing things to the dog at home. That's whenever I have a toddler over in my house, they just hand Sadie a toy over and over, and she drops it, and they hand her a toy, and she drops it, and they hand her a toy, and she drops it. Oh, it's the perfect play partner. Yes, exactly. And then, also, this idea, the thing I thought was really interesting was that if the outreach object was food, rather than a toy, they were more likely to grab it. Now, this is interesting to me because why? Is it because the idea of eating something is universal from a very young age, or is it because humans are obsessed with feeding animals? Because this is the thing, right? Like, if you offer, as a person who's worked with animals a lot, if you offer somebody the opportunity to feed an animal, it doesn't matter how old they are, who they are, they get very excited. And I still get excited. I visited a wildlife area recently, and I was offered to feed a giraffe, which I have done literally hundreds of times, maybe thousands, and I was like, yeah! So I don't know, is there something weirdly, innately there about us wanting to feed things? I don't know. It's just very... Interesting question. It's a very interesting piece of this study. Obviously, future research needs to be done just to get a larger sample set, but also they wanna look at the psychological components of the interspecific instrumental helping. So is this something that happens across species? Is it just with dogs? Is it just with these items? What if the dog needed to get somewhere? Would toddlers open a door for a dog? Like, what is the helping, right? And then also looking at the underlying emotions that motivate them to help the dogs. And is this shaped by culture? Is this shaped by evolution? What is happening here? Why at such an early age, do toddlers move to help a dog reach something that they can't get to? It's pretty interesting. Yeah, I think it is fascinating, especially when it's not your own dog, especially when it's not a dog in the toddler's household. I mean, there's the getting to know all of the individuals in the household as part of a social group and the reciprocity of helping and playing within your social group. But then when it's an animal outside of that group and you transfer that behavior to another animal, it's interesting. That's why toddlers get bitten by dogs a lot. So everyone, be careful with your toddlers around strange dogs. Or family dogs. It's usually the family dog that does it, not some strange dog. Anyway, yeah, why? When do we get around? Is it reciprocity? Is it, you know, as an adult, yeah, I wanna get close to that giraffe. Yes, I wanna get close to that weird emu. Yes, I wanna get close to the rhinoceros, you know, to have them so close when you're not just throwing food a distance away, but that you're actually feeding them. That means they're interacting with you. Yeah. And Lauren in the chat is asking, is it just empathy? Empathy, right? I need to know, would a toddler do this for a rat? Would a toddler do this for a lizard? This is what I need to know. Is it really just dogs? Like, were we predisposed to do this? Is this why dogs domesticated us so easily? What that's all I was gonna say is I think essentially the mindset of a toddler is not unlike any pack animal. Yeah. They're running with their pack, you know, they don't, toddlers don't fall down and then look for any human for help. They look for their pack, they try, they're like, oh, you're one of, yeah. So I don't know. There's a little of that. I also wonder if there's any connection to the thousands of years of animal husbandry that humans have been involved in. That's interesting. Yeah. In terms of like wanting to, like you're saying, wanting to feed animals and take care of livestock. I mean, this is, if you ignore everything else in human history, this is how we've sustained ourselves for thousands of years, largely from agriculture and from animal husbandry. And I'm wondering if you were to run this test with peoples who didn't have dogs but were in a strict hunter gatherer society, would they care at all? Right. Or would they be like a, you know, a hunter farmer, I don't know, seeing as this is a competitive, competitor in the environment and be like, I'm not gonna help that dog. That's good. I might need that treat later myself or whatever. I don't know. Well, that's the other thing. We need to do this experiment with chimps. Get away from the human aspect and see the animal husbandry control. Yeah. Well, first of all, I could forget if a chimp would help. Yeah, if a chimp would even help another chimp. Right. See, that's the, I guess bonobos. Let's go with bonobos. Yeah. That's our best shop for anything. Yeah. Moving away. Gotta love them. Go ahead. I have to love them. Many people also love birds. Yes. And it's always interesting during bird migration season to find out that there are wandering, vagrant birds in your local area. And if you're a bird watcher and you keep track of stuff, you know, people who are on the bird watching scene, they'll be like, oh my goodness, there's a broad-tailed hummingbird in Portland. Broad-tailed hummingbirds shouldn't be here. They're more southern. This is not where they should be. You know, why did they get here? And we think things like, oh, maybe these birds got pushed off course by winds. Or maybe, you know, they got confused. But it's usually only one or two. And if you think if it were a real wind event, you would see lots of birds having moved from one place to another. So researchers at UCLA have published in Scientific Reports this last week their work looking into how geomagnetic fields might actually play into these vagrants. And their hypothesis and their evidence suggests it is disturbances in the geomagnetic field that often correlate with vagrants in different areas. And they actually have a website where they've got a lot of, they're doing a lot of predictions and they're looking at localized geomagnetic fields. Like we've talked before about the shifting poles of earth and how north and south are kind of shifting over time. And as part of that, there are like these weird outspirts, kind of like solar flares, but they're weird little outbursts that happen around the planet. And we're not predicting them very well, but what they've been able to do with their data is looking at 2 million captures of 152 land bird species in North America over 60 years, they have associated magnetic field disruption with vagrancy during fall migration. And it happens more so during fall migration than during spring migration, which is interesting in itself. But they also have determined that sunlight, so daylight migrants are less affected by these magnetic fields. So it's the nighttime migrators that seem to be more affected by the shifts in the magnetic fields and these disturbances. And when they have put all these links together, all these bits of data together, they've determined that some, it's a variation some birds are more affected than other birds by the geomagnetic effects, and solar activity can have impacts on it as well. But overall, they can predict an increase in bird vagrants, the wandering birds based on little blips in our magnetic field. Yeah, so the birds are already migrating. That's already the thing, but they get out there and the GPS is off, they end up in the wrong spot. Yeah, what I think is really interesting and this is mostly like fall migration. So older birds and younger birds are affected, but fall migration is like, these are juvenile birds who've never migrated before, they're heading out and they're like, all I have is my magnet, you know. If I lose my GPS, I can't just feel my way there. Yeah, and so the solar activity, the polarization of the light, that they're focusing on these cues that are probably very genetically ingrained and they haven't learned all those little local cues of, oh, that tree's nice, that lake is nice. This is the path I go down, whereas older birds will be like, dude, I'm just gonna take shelter for the night. This is weird. Yeah. That's true. My GPS is out, I gotta find a hotel. Better to spend the night than fly for a whole night in the wrong direction. Yeah, yeah. So anyway, they have a very interesting website that you can also access that is on hiatus for the winter time because nobody's really migrating, but it is called the Rare Bird Forecast. And if you're interested in bird watching and kind of predicting whether or not there might be vagrancy or increased incidence of vagrancy, they are linking geometric activity and solar activity and making predictions as to the likelihood of whether or not you should be on the lookout for weird birds in your neighborhood. And you can actually sign up for them to notify you when it's online. If you are a bird watcher, this might be kind of cool. And then you can also help in the identifying of vagrants and the data collection and all the cool stuff that goes along with us trying to keep track of all these things. Groove. Yeah. So now that we're done with birds, you wanna talk about concrete. Yes, I have a very big news. Big news from the world of concrete. Okay. We may have finally figured out how to make it like the Romans did, thousands of years ago. So despite all of the concrete that we've used in the last century, it's, we still don't really understand why it is that the Roman concrete structures have survived for thousands of years. Typically modern steel reinforced concrete, it's good for about 150 years. That's like maybe at the best. So as long as it can avoid earthquakes and water making its way into the cracks or ice forming in those cracks, it can survive for about 150 years. We don't see a lot of major buildings collapsing or being demolished because of expired concrete. That's mostly because we haven't been doing large scale building with concrete for 150 years. So those days will soon be upon us as many iconic buildings will be reaching their expiration date by the end of the century. So it may be much more common. It's like, all right, this year, hey, they're gonna bring down the Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building that we might start losing some of these buildings because they're built with modern concrete. It just doesn't stand to test time. Meanwhile, the Parthenon, the Coliseum, countless bath houses and temples and even some Roman houses are over 2,000 years old, standing still from Roman times. Previous attempts at recreating Roman concrete focused on one version of it, the chemical interactions of seawater with volcanic ash and the ancient admixture that adds structure to the cement that actually made it harder over time. Now researchers at MIT have discovered that hot mixing which allows for a reaction of pure quick lime with water which can produce a lot of heat. Potentially it can cause an explosion. But by doing it this way, it allowed for a rougher admixture which is very much like what was seen in ancient Roman concrete. So it appears when you look at it almost as though it was poorly mixed because it's very granule and there's big chunks of this lime and calcium sort of stuck in there and it looks like they went through all the trouble to make this incised formulation and then they just sort of half mixed it mixed it by hand as opposed to in a mixture. I mean, in a lot of times it gets chalked up to like, well, the technology at the times this is the only way they could do it. The clumpiness of lab made concrete in this way contained a lot of calcium in lime when exposed to water through the cracks, seat out and made their way into the cracks and then sealed them up again. So they had blocks that they made with more traditional formulations and some with this hot mix are going. And by the way the hot mix didn't explode anything. They say it did heat up and there was a little bit of steam release of some sort, but it didn't explode. It was nowhere near that level. When they cracked the blocks and added water to them the old formulation, they just stayed cracked. But in this formulation where they did it very much like Romans did, they self-healed within two to three weeks, a self-healing construction material. Right, we talked about this on the show before. It's like it's just there, it's been there for years. Thousands of years and it's just whatever. The question is, did they know what they were doing or was this just the only way to do it at the time? So very likely they knew what they were doing. So some of this, some of the earlier that the knowledge of that seawater was making some concrete strata. They built piers into the sea that are still there, which we can't do. We pour concrete into the water with the steel reinforcement and it breaks down over time and that's the replaced. It gets into the steel and it rusts away. So they knew that there was obviously something going on here. And if you look at the recipes, the few that are out there from ancient times, they're very specific that the lime, that a quick lime must be pure, completely white without impurities that, so they even figured out their formulation. Now it's the Romans, not the most inventive people. Not, they really aren't. They are very good at implementation of things that other people have come up with. Very true. Like almost everything about the Roman Empire's technology is Greek, almost all of the science they're using is Greek from a time gone by. Yeah, so you could question whether or not this had been discovered before or on some smaller scale, but once they find a useful thing, stick into it and recreate it. And so that's why also the researchers thought, it's so weird that they have this sort of poorly mixed and it turns out it's actually what was required for the initial, for the chemical reactions to be taking place slowly over time and to create a self-healing construction material thousands of years ago, that's still there. Now, maybe not everybody used this. Maybe there's plenty of Roman structures that they were like, why do we need to follow that specific recipe? I'll just mix the concrete, put up, those buildings have been long gone. Those buildings have been gone for 1,900 years. You know, dust, they've been built on top of. But in using these forms, especially for these large structures, they must have known that they needed this, this strength and this weatherproofing for something like a coliseum or a parthenon, right? So the big question now, because with concrete manufacture now, the big issue is carbon dioxide emissions. So as Rob Haglund is saying in our YouTube chat, what are we doing though? I mean, this is great, self-healing. It'll reduce the amount of carbon of concrete that we have to produce over and over and over again. But- Correct, and that's it, and that's the thing. If you can build it once, because it's the manufacturing process that's also causing a lot of this carbon, right? Adding more and adding more and adding more concrete where concrete already was placed. Sidewalks, infrastructure, all these things. If you can build it once and it stands the test of time, then you've reduced it just right there. The carbon footprint of the concrete, yeah. Yeah. But fingers crossed that they can also, you know, potentially work on this and reduce even the carbon dioxide output of this. I mean, Justin, I think you have brought these stories about Roman concrete to the show for the last couple of decades. We're still not there. We're still not there. We're still not there. And so this is some very exciting story. It really is. It's something, I can't remember what it was. It was some sort of fake inventory where they pictured the future without humans. And I remember being really astounded by the fact that in like a hundred years time or so, all the buildings are gone. All the skyscrapers are gone. Like all these things that you would think, oh, in the future, people will look back on this great modern civilization of humans and say, oh, look at all that tall stuff to me. It's just dust. It's all just gonna turn to dust in 150 years or so. You know, so. Well, but that's only things they had, not everything's made out of concrete, right? Because like, the- Yeah, the plastic will be here. You're talking about Roman concrete, but if you go to Europe, there's a lot of structures that are hundreds and hundreds, if not thousands of years old, right? And so what are they made out of? They're not made out of Roman concrete. Well, actually some of them are. Actually a lot of them are. Actually, no, no, that's the thing. That's the funny thing. When you go to Paris and look at the old, and if you go to London, you're like, oh, look at these aqueducts. It's still Roman concrete. Got it, all right. If you're talking hundreds of years, you know, you can make brick and mortar buildings that can last hundreds of years, but those are also when a brick breaks, you don't know how often these bricks are getting replaced. You don't know how often maintenance can be done in small sections. When you're talking about a walls of concrete, those crack. But I would say that's an argument against concrete, right? Because having something that you can repair sectionally is more, has better. Yeah, but then you're getting into a skyscraper. At some point, I think there's something to do with physics, where like now there's a brick at the bottom that's taking the weight of the entire structure. Right. But yeah, a lot of the ancient structures that you'll find in Syrian bathhouses and ancient French temples or whatever, those are still Roman construction. That's what's so amazing about it. It's all across Europe. You can find these ancient Roman buildings that are thousands of years old. Speaking of carbon emissions, there are organizations that are basically the leading ones for the carbon offset industry, carbon taxes, so to say. So one of the leading organizations is called Vera. Vera has been, is known for its position in the industry of being the leader in these projects in the Amazon and other places where they say, these trees that you put your money into, we're going to save them and it's going to be wonderful. We're gonna buy this area. No more deforestation is going to happen and all sorts of big corporations have bought into this stuff, like major organizations, Gucci, Salesforce, BHP Shells, EasyJet, Leon, and the band Pearl Jam, have bought rainforest offsets that are approved by Vera for environmental claims. There has been a massive investigation by Guardian journalists and the German weekly desite and source material, this is a non-profit investigative journalism organization, and they have also been looking at new analyses of scientific studies of Vera's rainforest schemes to determine how good they are. Are they actually doing the work they say they're gonna be doing? So the researchers have determined that, no, it's all overstated. It's not, the Vera's rainforest carbon offset schemes are not actually helping local economies. They're not helping the rainforest. There's all sorts of stuff going on. Vera, of course, is denying this and saying, no, no, no, you didn't look at the right things and the comparative spaces were not the right comparisons and there are other details because this is very complicated and of course it's complicated, but what the researchers have determined is that about 90% of Vera's rainforest offsets are useless, which when we're trying to figure out how we're going to deal economically with carbon moving forward as corporations say, oh, I've put my money into the rainforest and deforestation, so we're net neutral, right? And they can put stuff all over their labeling that says zero carbon, net neutral, we're environmentally friendly, maybe they're not. And so this is a huge issue and there are a couple of studies that have just come out in the proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences that are looking into various locations throughout the Amazon and how they're actually working to offset carbon emissions or not as the case may be. So Pearl Jam, Gucci, Salesforce, class action suit please, get your mind back and put it to good use. Yeah, I mean, there's one to learn from in this, I think, but like right off the bat, we're going to plant trees in the rainforest. How do we need trees? You're going to prevent them from being cut. Yeah, prevent, yeah. We're going to do a thing by not doing a thing. Yeah. Okay. Yes, well, you know, you can't when Vera started doing their offsets, they didn't know Bolsonaro was going to be elected and push more deforestation. You know, and now the situation may switch and the politics of an area affect various things as well as the localized politics of whether or not people are supporting deforestation, how they're going to work economically with farming or not farming or whatever they're doing. Or did the area you buy was that already in a protected forest and so you didn't do anything. But to keep these points then you really do need to give them a chance under a more helpful administration to take these things on before you judge here. For instance, biofuel in the United States, the corn ethanol, whether you're for it against it, all but disappeared for three years, four years under the past administration because they ended subsidies or not so much subsidies, but it was a requirement that regular fuel have this admixture of a certain percentage of biofuel added to it that then paid for the biofuel industry basically. Yeah. And by eliminating that, the fossil fuel industry said, well, we don't need you or our competition anyway and we'll just not use you at all. And it shut down the entire industry basically for three years, four years. So if there's a political, yeah, I can see if there's a real political thing involved in this in terms of you wanna buy this land but we're gonna cut it down anyway or we're gonna cut everything around it or yeah. There is a need to do massive reforestation and nature protection. Yes. But to identify them as this is something we've offset, like I've offset my carbon imprint by buying a certain percentage of rainforest that is already existing isn't an improvement in the situation. Yeah. Exactly, right. Throwing money at the problem is part of the issue as well which we've talked about before like. And then also, how many other people bought that same piece of land with you? Their private jet, but instead if they could fly commercial first class that would reduce their carbon footprint, right? So there are things that you can do that would help in actually the people of the power to do but giving them the option to just throw money at it and say, I've done it, I'm carbon neutral is it's a cop out, unfortunately. Well, yeah. But at the same time. They don't wanna discourage it too much, right? Right, but at the same time we don't want it to become a situation where major corporations who do have massive influence globally stop paying to avoid deforestation. So who's in charge of making sure that's actually happening then? Me. I am nominating me. You gotta do it. I'll make sure it happens. I'll get it done. There has to be consequences, that's the thing. This is why I'm saying that they need to be, if nothing else, they need to be sued. They need to feel it fiscally, right? So like, there needs to be consequences so that people can't show up and say, I'm selling you a piece of the Eiffel Tower. It's like, you can't sell the Eiffel Tower 50 times. That's exactly what this is, right? So it could be, yeah. So that's the danger here. Is anybody can show up and say, I'm buying some trees in the Amazon for you? I don't know that that happened here, but that is something that could take place where, yeah, that was kind of like the same piece of land has been set aside for trees and a million people have bought that two acres. Right. You didn't know it, but I bought you a target grade on the moon and named it after you. That's great. That's so amazing. EasyJet apparently, yeah, but what's happened is in the meantime, there are corporations making changes. The fast food chain Leon no longer buys carbon offsets from one of the projects in the study. EasyJet is now working on new zero carbon emission aircraft technology. And so they've moved where they're actually putting their money. And this might actually be a better place to put it. So put it in the technology instead of the mushy, squishy deforestation area, carbon offset area. And from this Guardian article, Barbara Haye, the director of the Berkeley Carbon Trading Project who's been researching carbon credits and trying to work in this area for over 20 years. Her comment at the end of this article is just on the nose, is that I started studying carbon offsets 20 years ago, studying problems with protocols and programs. Here I am, 20 years later, having the same conversation, we need an alternative process. The offset market is broken. So of course the offset companies are going to debate it and this is a Wild West kind of situation, but it's- There's a huge amount of pressure from governments for it to work on paper anyway, because as we've discussed before, they've already dedicated half of the world's current agricultural land to growing two trillion trees in the next 30 years, but it built no infrastructure behind actually getting it done. Yeah. So along with this though, we need to get- They're gonna reach a goal? Right, we need to get- With this little effort? Yeah, we need to get working on this, however, because another study out of Lawrence Berkeley Labs has determined that with increased climate change and the intense storms that are going to be coming with more climate change, we will have what is called more wind throw. And that's when you have really big storms with lots of wind that come through and pick up trees and pull them out of the ground and throw them around. So the storms are gonna be tossing the trees around. And so even if we have programs like Vera, who want to have the carbon offsets in the Amazon, we're gonna have these massive storms coming through that potentially are going to be uprooting all of those plans. And so this is an entire- Uprooting, I get it. An entirely different area that needs to be taken into advantage, taken into account in these carbon offset prediction models. Landsat eight has examples of wind throw. They show these large up to 1200 acres, sometimes larger areas that have been blown down, just trees uprooted and knocked over and blown down. And then you have new growth that comes up afterwards, but of course that new growth is not the same as those old growth rainforests. And so there's time for it to repair and recover that is not going to be adding to what we need from the rainforest as part of the lungs of the earth and part of the water process of the earth and all the things that the rainforest is important for. So we gotta take various things into account. I don't know, electric cars, that's another story. They're gonna be great batteries for our transition to an electric future. Your electric car in the garage, you're storing energy in it. And if everybody's doing that, we've all got good batteries. That can be part of the grid. So anyway, there's positive stuff out there. It's not all negative. So in that too, it's like people have already started using Tesla batteries. Now they have to get the wall, the thing that they've even taken out of the cars and you can install it in the home as a battery backup as a storage for solar or whatever you've got going on. So yeah, being able to trickle charge those cars when there's a peak availability of electricity. Also, do you do this in the homes? You can charge homes that have these batteries. They charge overnight when electricity is not in high demand, so the electric charge costs when they're using them later is less, but that also means more efficient use of electricity were out of manufacturing. But this whole story that you bring up, what we need is a seat at the United Nations for the nation of nature. Right. A corporate and nation's state. Of nature with representatives who can be like, here's what we need. There's no seat at the table for any of this. And this is part of the problem is that it's being left to all the, it's going to go in a corporate profit model. Right. If we make it a corporate profit model by which we attempt to rescue the planet from this. If you don't put nature in the conversation as part of the interested party. Ecology equals economy. Yeah. Conversation, yeah. Separate the two. We need some voice of reason. I don't know, how do you start a country that's everywhere? Well, you have to have a GDP, right? Which nature has. You can quantify it. Yeah. How do you start a country that's already everywhere? Yeah. And claim that's the nation I represent. The one that's everywhere. We'll work on that one. We are going to work on all of this. I know all of you out there are going to be contemplating this for the next several days. But in the meantime, I hope you think about how much you love this weekend science. Thank you so much for joining us. We still have a few more stories to go. But as we're sitting here for a moment, I would love to ask you to head over to twist.org and click on our Patreon link and choose to support us $10 and more per month. And we will thank you by name at the end of the show. We really do appreciate your support. It is the thing that keeps us going. We can't do this without you. We love the science and we hope that you do too. Now we will move on to some other kinds of science that we like. It's the animal science. Oh my goodness. It's time for Blair's Animal Corner. With Blair. There we go. Just all. By pet, milliped, no pet at all. If you want to hear about animals, she's your girl. Except for giant pandas and squirrels. Got Blair. I have hot e-kidnas. Hot. They're hot. They're physically hot. Climate change is happening. E-kidnas are heating up. They live on an island. What are they gonna do? What do you do when you're hot? I like to... Struck down the boulevard, knowing it. Yeah, okay, fair enough. Go for a pool. Find myself some shade. You might sweat a little bit. Oh, I don't like doing that. E-kidnas can't do that. If you were a dog, you might pant. They can't do that either. E-kidnas can't sweat or lick, also because they're covered in spines. But they can't do any of those things to help with evaporative cooling in their body. And so it's been thought for a long time that they're pretty much just boned when it comes to climate change. They're in trouble. So they have nowhere to go. They're on an island. They can't deal with the heat. What's gonna happen? Well, some scientists took thermal video of e-kidnas in the wild, short-beaked e-kidnas in bushland, which is about 170 kilometers southwest of Perth. And they wanted to see how these animals exchanged heat with their environment. Turns out they have some methods to cool themselves down in the heat, which e-kidna biologists didn't previously know. The, they will actually move their quills around, which is really cool. So their spines, when they're kind of tight to their body, they hold in heat, they retain heat. When they kind of loosen them up, it exposes the skin in between the individual spines. If you look at a porcupine, the quills are very, very dense. If you look at an e-kidna, you can see skin. They're like, they're more sparse. And so they can open up their spines and they also can expose the spineless areas on their underside and on their legs. And that can improve the evaporative cooling. It can improve just kind of exposure to air that allows for a heat window and that's heat exchange. And so that can cool them down. But what is more exciting is that they can actually blow bubbles from their nose. They blow them up so big, they burst over their nose tip and wet the tip of their nose. And then as the moisture evaporates, it cools them down, cools their blood. Makes, so their nose tip works also as an evaporative window. So this is a really wild thermoregulation technique, but specifically this is actually conservation wise. This is important to know because it does mean that e-kidnas can be active under hotter conditions than previously thought. And so this can actually adjust predictions of how they will respond to a warming climate. They're still not the best adapted for where things are going, but they're gonna hang in there better than previously thought. By blowing snot bubbles. Yeah. Nature finds a way. Love it. Wow, so would we expect then that they would blow more snot bubbles, that they would need more water, that they would need like how will this affect their physiology if they have to be doing this to keep cool more often? Right, so that's the push-pull, right? Is that every time they do that, they're losing moisture in their body. So are they gonna be able to get enough moisture to keep that up, to be able to continue doing that? Are they gonna have to be active less during the day, during the heat of the day, because they have to go high because it's just too darn hot? There's still a lot of research that needs to be done, but this is a new factor in the e-kidna research and their response to climate change that was not previously discovered. The kidna snot bubbles. Yeah, pretty cool. I actually wanna see the snot bubbles. I think you can do that. Really? In it? I do. Is it like a bubbly nose? Is it like a bubbly bubble? Does that mean my toddler's trying to? Right. Could be. Trying to reduce his temperature with those snot bubbles. Oh no, he does excessive drooling. Oh yeah. No. That's his technique. That's just, there's teepers coming in. They're all in. They're all in there. Oh jeez. He has, he has got like all, he got them so quick. And I don't, I don't know. I almost wanted him to be studied because I feel like it's. You have too many kids, child. There's more coming in. Gotta watch out. So speaking of climate change, other ways that animals are in trouble from climate change, they have to respond. And they have, in the way that many animals respond to climate change is they move to spaces that are more favorable to the conditions that they evolved in. And so for some animals that's easy for other animals like those that live on islands, not so easy. And so there is actually a pending change in the US Endangered Species Act by the Biden administration that would make it easier to relocate some of the most imperiled species to places where they're not previously been recorded. So an example of that is the Tristrem's Storm Petrals, which is on Northeastern Hawaii's Turn Island. It's six feet above sea level. No. Yeah. So it's not long for this world. It's gonna be gone real soon. And so researchers are looking at relocating 40 chicks to artificial burrows about 500 miles away on Oahu. So this would be kind of a proof of concept to see if they could move these individuals, have them establish a home base there. And the goal would be that when they migrate away, they would return back to that new home when they were old enough to breed. And so that would mean that they could establish a functioning population in that space recognize that they're gonna lose all of the other ones on that other island. So interesting, the whole issue here is that... Is there already? Exactly. So state wildlife officials and scientists suggested moving some species, struggling with climate change to areas that they might be well-adapted. Specifically, Republicans in Western states, including Montana, New Mexico, and Arizona are against the proposal, saying it could wreak ecological havoc as invasive species get purposefully introduced. Very interesting to hear Republicans worried about ecological havoc. But anyway, it's interesting. It's an interesting conversation and it's nuanced because while on face value, that's true. You don't want to intentionally introduce non-native species to a space. That's like in a vacuum, right? But recognizing we have ruined everything already. Like nothing is as it should be. The climate in the space where the animals are is not what they're supposed to be. The place you're moving them into is no longer suited for the animals that live there. So it's all a mess. So we're just trying to recoup what we can here. So if you can trust the ecologists and you can trust the people whose entire life work has been focusing on these ecosystems and studying them, we can make some ditch efforts to save species that are going away. As long as it is ecologically focused and not species focused. And that is the thing that is really hard to figure out just by looking at this on face value. So again, you have to trust the institutions that are trying these things, which is a hard thing to do because who put cane toads in Australia? Like, oh yeah. So we're not always good at that systems thinking. So it's really hard to have that vote of confidence to be like, yeah, go for it. You know what you're doing? But at the same time, do you let species disappear if you could save them if there is suitable habitat nearby? And they just haven't been found there before. This is, we were talking about this recently with Tuatars. So again, an animal that is almost extinct could go in a space. It is a space that is already messed up by other invasive species and climate change. So recognizing it's not a perfect system, can those in charge of these decisions make the right call to save ecosystems and bring species in that are not going to upend other species? I don't know. I mean, we can't even do this with ourselves. No, I just wanna point out on the political frame of this that this situation is not unique that they would suddenly care about one aspect of the thing. Ignoring problems and arguing against the solutions is very much on brand. Yeah, you're right. Regardless of where or how the subject is that is before us, ignoring the problem, arguing against solutions, very on brand. And again, another reason why we need a community of just nature. Right, yeah. So I think it's actually very sad but necessary component to mitigation. Mitigation is a very sad but necessary component to the coming global warming situation because we're going to be needing to do this. We're talking about this one species on this one island but it's going to take place microbiome by microbiome across the planet that these considerations are going to be needed. Anywhere from where trees grow now to where they used to. What needs to live amongst those trees to survive needs to move. The things that they feed on, the things that feed on them, everything needs to, and nature has always been able to do this seemingly, seamlessly at times and sometimes abruptly over really long time spans. You know what nature's going to do just fine. Things are going to survive, just not all the things. There's going to be a lot of things that die because they can't just keep up. We're in a mass extinction. Yeah, it's a mass extinction. They happen all the time on this planet. It's just going to be another day on Earth. This is the seven. Yeah, so there'll be adaptive radiation after all this. The question is, yeah, whoa, what hand are we going to put it in? So we have had a hand in causing the extinctions. Can we have a hand in saving species and ecosystems? Or are we just going to make it worse? And just to keep in to also that later radiation, you know, a lot of these bird species may have evolved over 23 million years to get to the point where they're well adapted to be on this island. You know, we're talking about time scales of rebound that we must assume happen without us. That must happen after humans. After humans. Well, but the problem is sea level rise isn't usually this fast. So like there'd be time for some of them to survive and get lost and be vagrants and show up somewhere else and establish a new populate. But now it's just like, bam, your island's gone. And the question is, with these species relocations, can we move enough individuals to get past population bottlenecks which would themselves be a problem for that later radiation? Would we be moving enough individuals to make it any different from those random single vagrants who end up by themselves in the wrong place, right? Yeah. And once you move them to Oahu, are they gonna be like, oh snap, there's all this resort food and they completely change their entire, yeah, their entire habits? Yeah, and then, you know, they're like, oh, the people died. And where'd the resort food go? What? Well, there are right now, there's, I think we've discussed this on the show before, five island nations that are petitioning the United Nations for some sort of documentation or legal framework for them to continue to be nations once they no longer have soil. Yeah, virtual. They want to maintain their fishing rights for their waters. They wanna maintain their voice in the world as a nation, a state of people. What you do is you make a Roman concrete island, right? There it is. So, just build a pipe. Build a pipe. Build a pipe tower. Yeah. Can you keep adding to it? Yeah. Yeah. Oh man. Hey, we're joking, but they were talking about creating a flotation system in one of these nations. I believe it. Like, this is like, it's not, they were being forced to confront the thing that we almost jokingly, flippantly say like, oh, that's gonna be tough. They're actually like, yeah, we need to figure out a way to keep our country on the planet, on the maps. Yeah, where are they going to be? What are they going to do? These are peoples, right? Waterworld. Yeah. What's gonna happen to Salt Lake City when it starts killing everybody with its arsenic clouds, right? And where they're not able to ship enough water through airships to replenish Great Salt Lake. You know, there's all sorts of things going on. It's, you know, Cadillac Desert and Waterworld all over the place. Okay, not to bring you all down, but this is the Seeking Science and we're really glad you're here and you know, the animals, they're very important to all the things. Yay, nature. Okay, so we ask that you head over to twist.org and if you would like a calendar, we are selling them as DIY PDF printables. You can click on the link on our website and get yourself a nice printable calendar for 2023. They're really, really wonderful art by Blair and if you haven't done it yet, get yourself a calendar. Supports twists and it's just really neat art to have on your walls. Justin, what stories do you have for us? All right, a real quick one here. Norwegian archeologists have found the world's oldest runestone. 2000 year old sandstone inscription was recovered from an ancient burial ground northwest of Oslo. Apparently it was either discovered or removed because there's a rail system coming through there so they went through and did this big excavation. Found something that they're dating to 2000-ish years old. Predating the oldest currently known runestone by a few hundred years. Carbon dating of bone and wood found in the grave beside the rune suggests it was inscribed. Between year one and maybe 250 AD, these are often found at grave sites much later during the Viking era. Runestones are stones that are exactly what they sound like. Stones inscribed with runic letters of the ancient Scandinavian alphabet. So far though, the translation seems to be lost. Retranscribed into the Latin alphabet, the inscription is basically a total Norwegian nonsense. I-D-I-B-E-R-U-G. I-D-I-B-E-R-U-G? Maybe, hmm, maybe? Which is apparently utterly meaningless but also could have been a common name at the time. Nobody can be sure. Being the earliest example of a written language in Scandinavian by hundreds of years, it is also the earliest form of language that may not even translate well to later runic writings. It could be slang or a swear. It could be anything. It could be anything, they have no idea. The fact that it's a grave marker, yeah, you can maybe jump to it's a name but it doesn't translate and they haven't, which is also fun, especially if you are somebody who has been studying runic writing. Now you have an older example in it. It's not fitting or it's not easy to transcribe. Now you have a mystery. They wanna find more of these, of course. And they're going straight to display. It's gonna be on display in Museum, Cultural History in Oslo from January 21st to February 26th this year. So people will be able to go take a look at it themselves. And really encouraging news. Well, okay. I gotta be careful how I set up a story. Really encouraging news and then I'm reading an estimated 90% of deaths from breast cancer due to complications resulting from metastasis. So this is the process in which- Yeah, is that encouraging? What? Well, yeah, I gotta get to the end of the story. Get to it, okay. So this is where cancer cells break down tissues from where they are formed and then they travel through the blood or lymph circulatory systems and they form tumors in other parts of the body. Breast cancer is always erased to remove cancer before this happens because there are not good options for therapy or curative options once it is metastasized. Once it is these cancer cells are floating throughout the blood or lymph system. So cancer cells use protrusions. Let me say they look like little feet in invadopodia to degrade the tissues that they then allows them to free up and travel to the other organs. This is based on previous research at Bar-Ilan University Israel, revealed two important clues about the formation of invadopodia. The level of two proteins, PYK2 and Cortacutin, suspiciously increase when the cell is entering this malignant phase ahead of metastasis. But if the cell lost its ability to produce one of them, PYK2, no metastasis was observed whatsoever. So in this recent study spanning on the previous findings, they discovered the mechanism which the protein interaction affects the formation and defined the structure of the complex between these two proteins. Researchers narrowed it down to a precise segment of the protein involved in the interaction between the PYK2 and the Cortacutin, Cortactin, excuse me. Small segment, peptides was then synthesized in the laboratory and administered to breast cancer. It's in the lungs in the mice, but it's the analog cancer bearing mice. They synthesized this peptide successfully and with the place where it from the PYK2 and basically flooded the zone with this peptide. What happened was the other protein that the PYK2 was interacting with took up these just these little peptide portions and it stopped metastasis. The other protein, it basically ran interference. So got the one protein and the other protein and this one's like, oh, if I just had a little bit of what you've got over here, I could go and start the process of metastasis down the road and instead it got these little segments that fulfilled its desire to connect but without the rest of the components needed to fulfill its role. So pretty amazing. It wasn't 100% successful but it was a very high rate of reduction and metastasis. So what they're doing now, they've only used 19 of something like 1,000 amino acid building blocks that are in this connection zone. So they're now focused on transforming this peptide into a better drug candidate. They're trying out different sequences of the amino acids. They're testing so they can get a very specific target of the binding site. Also critical because the other binding sites that may be similar to this could cause side effects in a drug if it were produced based off of this. So this is very, this is like the most encouraging. I know we're always talking about trying to avoid the cancer research down the road story but this is the first one that I've really seen attack metastasis at a mechanism level. Which is that as opposed to just a, oh my gosh, we're going to... After the fact. After the fact, yeah. We're going to give you treatment, yeah. Yes, this is, or it's treatment because they're not successful but they can be extremely invasive and extremely, this is when you get into full body chemotherapy, running chemotherapy drugs throughout your entire system to try to halt the spread. This is the first one I've seen where it's like, okay, we actually can see now what we think is the mechanism that happens before metastasis and we've developed a peptide that can be administered that can block that from happening. Now they just need to perfect it and get it into drug trials. And so this is five, seven years away probably. That's great, but... Meanwhile, everyone learn how to do a self-check. Men and women, it's not hard to do. You know, they never bring that up to men. It really should be. Men don't get it as often, but it is... It happens. They should. It's a big problem, yeah. If we want to produce it. I have such little muscle tissue on my body. I'm such a rail that I would just look in the mirror and be like, oh, that didn't belong there. I could see it, I wouldn't even need to feel for it. But yeah, I guess men too. Yeah, so the next big state of this is to move from mice and try and figure out whether or not they can actually create it. Staying mice a little bit longer. Yeah. Perfect it in the mice model. Yeah. Get that effect that they have seen. When I say great when we reduce, they even aren't sure that metastasis happened afterwards. But they can tell that it was highly effective. Yeah. But now to perfect it so that it could be used in a large system without causing downstream effects and to be more effective. So really encouraging. This is one of those things about cancer that if this could be stopped, cancer wouldn't be as big a deal. Like really would not be as big a deal. It wouldn't be as much of a ticking clock, yeah. Yeah. If you can get rid of the metastasis, that's the really big issue, right? It's the biggest game. It spreads to other systems and starts, yeah. Localized, we can usually handle when cancer appears in a local area, it can be simple as extraction. There's a bunch of therapies that can break down or inhibit tumor growth in a localized organ. That's the thing we can do now today. This is the one thing that we have in itself. This would be huge. So anyway, this is a story to keep following. Hopefully, I hope my seven years is way too far out. I hope they get tremendous amounts of funding and excitement and parallel research that is on board and really move this forward quickly. Right, because it could affect more than just breast cancer. This is looking at just that metastasis generally. Can we stop it from spreading? Yeah. Well, moving on from cancer and metastasis, I have a couple of stories related to epigenetics and aging. One of the things related to aging is you start getting achy joints and part of achy joints is osteoarthritis related to your cartilage. So researchers have been trying to figure out whether or not we can use information gleaned from stem cells to be able to find factors that might lead to an understanding of how to turn back the clock on that cartilage. Because one of the things that we know about cartilage is that it just doesn't get the blood flow that other tissues do, and it's hard to repair. So if your knees go and the cartilage in your knees go, you're like, oh, well, gotta rebuild my knees, that's it. But what if we could have drugs or other treatments that got around surgery to enable the restructuring of old cartilage to make it work once again? So these researchers at USC just published their work in aging cell, and they were looking at particular factors, one particularly called stat three. It turns genes on and off. It's an epigenetic factor that regulates when aspects of cartilage cells are turned on or off, and there's another molecule that's involved called DNA methyl transferase three. It interacts with stat three. When stat three gets inactivated, this DNA methyl transferase three gets really hyperactive and starts adding aging marks to the DNA, and that progresses osteoarthritis. So what they've determined from their work in mice is that if they could keep stat three activated, this could potentially keep cells thinking that they're younger or maybe even turn back the clock a little bit. So they did a bunch of experiments to see how they could up regulate stat three and kind of return it to a younger profile, and they found that they could, which is really great because it suggests that, oh, hey, we can get some of these cartilage cells acting young again. But the bad news here is that even though we can control it epigenetically, these younger cells, the cells that kind of go, oh, I'm young again, they don't know what to do with themselves because they are in an older tissue, huh? And so because they are younger cells in an older tissue, they become potentially tumorgenic or they create weird tissue that doesn't match the rest of the tissue. And so it created a worse problem in the mice eventually. Ah, kids today. It's true everywhere you go. Yes, it always has been. It always has been. So more to look at and more to understand. And they've worked on aspects of this previously. So there have been other studies looking at rejuvenating cells related to Parkinson's disease and dopamine neurons and oh, you can't just put a young cell into the brain. You have to tell the cell what to do. So this is a starting point. And eventually they'll probably figure out other markers that will epigenetically allow them to control the reeducation of these cartilage cells so that they can be young again. So that's a very important thing they bring up is a lot of the communication in tissues is between local cells. Yes. So why can't these young cells just listen? Well, they do, but they're not, it's like a grown up telling a toddler what to do. And a toddler's like, I don't want, I'm fine. I'll be kind of doing it. Toddlers having a tantrum on the floor of Target. Right, exactly. I'm gonna do it for a little bit, but I'm tired now. Or I don't really want to do that. I don't have an attention span like that. Yeah, exactly. I mean, this is also what cancer is. Cancer is cells that have stopped listening to the cells around them. They're ignoring the stop growing signals. Yeah, we're out of room. We're out of room, I said we're out of room. They're ignoring the communication of from the other cells around them. So I'm wondering if somehow this is, if they can just improve the listening ability, which is, I know, like a very analog what this, we're doing a lot of. You need to make them younger, but not too young. Right. Just a little younger. Just a little younger, just so that you're not decrepit anymore. Or just make the whole body younger. Just do it all. And so on that note, there's another study out this last week that's been all over the news. People have been excited about this paper looking at epigenetics in mice. Researchers at Harvard Medical School have taken the Yamanaka factors, which are a series of factors, Oct4, Sox2, KLF4. There are genes that are active in stem cells that are known to revert stem cells. Revert cells. So you can add the Yamanaka factors and other things to a skin cell and turn it back into a baby skin cell or a neuron into a baby neuron. And you take them back to these younger states, right? And so stem cells, the cells that can potentially are gonna propagate and grow into the tissues, they're young and it's great. And you want to have as many nice young stem cells working in your body at all time to make sure that you're not aging too much. So over time, the stem cells themselves, we've talked before about the telomeres at the ends of DNA that start to shorten. And so because the little aglets at the end of the, the telomeres at the end of the DNA start to shorten, suddenly you start getting errors all over the place and proteins are in the wrong places. And DNA that's supposed to be tied up is opened up and DNA that's supposed to be opened up is tied up and genes are getting expressed that shouldn't be expressed. And suddenly your skin is wrinkly. Suddenly you're getting older. Suddenly you have memory problems. Suddenly you have osteoarthritis and there are all these things happening. You're aging because your DNA is breaking down. Oh no. Right. So these researchers have published their paper involving these older mice and they had, it was in cell and in this study, they took mice of the same genetic background and they took some of them and had them have sped up DNA breakage. And they ended up with mice that were the same age but one mouse looked old and another mouse didn't look very young actually. And in this, in what they did they also realized that they could then give the mice these Yamanaka factors and they called them the ice mice. These ice mice had their vision, their glaucoma repaired, their epigenome started becoming unscramble, their tissues and organs returned to what could be considered more youthful states. And the lead author, David Sinclair, says it's like rebooting a malfunctioning computer. It's set in motion an epigenetic program that led cells to restore the epigenetic information they had when they were young. It's a permanent reset. And Sinclair has gone as far and you know, scientists can sometimes get really excited about their discoveries and really overstate stuff and Sinclair's been on Twitter and he's like, this is, if it's correct, we're gonna cure cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer's, you know, really it's the epigenome DNA breaking and if we can fix it and give it a reset we can solve everything. My first prediction of the year, my first prediction of the year, here it is. Longevity has been solved, reversing of aging. Just this year. I predicted this would happen however, part of my prediction was that they would not tell anybody about it, because the ramifications of everybody living forever is really gonna be bad for the planet. I think that's another issue there. And the economy and society in general. Also only some people will be able to afford it. So then only certain individuals will get to live forever. Then it wouldn't be so bad. Except if you think about the people that'll be able to afford it, that's not what you want. That's what they want. That's not what we want. Well, I'm gonna be friends with those people then because then maybe if I do their bidding long enough they'll keep me around a little longer. Can you imagine that though as a perk for a job? Also this will give you access to longevity. Yes, our benefits package include an extra 30 years. You'll just be working for those three years. You'll be working for us the entire time. You're young. You're gonna say you can do it. Who needs your tire working? It'll be every five years, you'll get another five years. It's not a retirement package, it's a reworking package. Oh my God. Forever working package. I think I'd rather die. Yeah, there's a limit to the amount of... Depends on what you're doing. If you love what you're doing, I mean, I could do this show forever. Well, you don't do this for 40 hours a week. Yes, but in the new benefits program it'll be required. Yeah, so there is another study as well. Also not yet peer reviewed, the cell studies peer reviewed, they did this work, we're able to somewhat repair aging in these mice. There's another paper out in bio archive, the pre-print server by a number of researchers called Gene Therapy Mediated Partial Req Programming extends lifespan and reverses age related changes in aged mice in which they essentially were able to allow an age equivalent of 77 year old mice to live longer. So same gene therapy, the Yamanaka factors systemically delivered AAVs which are adenoviruses encoding inducible Yamanaka factors, extended the lifespan by 9% in mice. And in human skin cells, they observed significant epigenetic markers of age reversal potential to a healthier state. So the question is, is this work, the kind of work that can be turned into a treatment that can help skin cancer? Is this the kind of thing that can help glaucoma? Is it the kind of thing that without surgery, we can help with age related disorders like Alzheimer's and others that are very complex disorders, but yeah, like you mentioned, Justin, there are economic and other social concerns as we look at the extension of life. Yeah, and does it affect everything? I mean, if I am now a young man in my 20s in terms of vim and vigor, which also tells me my age, what am I saying? You're a 70-year-old, yeah. And yet I still have horrible arthritis and Alzheimer's is still catching up to me and like, is it going to affect everything? Hey, if it gets rid of the wrinkles and I'm like, great, but still have a bad back. I don't know, you know, how much of this rejuvenation is outward facing and how much of it is actual internal health changes? You know, more is better. Right, but and considering the effects of the younger cells in the osteoarthritis situation, how much of it is actually going to be beneficial? Like are there deleterious effects on the body system by reprogramming cells and making them think they're younger? If I'm here when I'm 77, I will take that. I'll take that, right? Will you? I'll take it. If my ligaments are great, but my bones have turned to dust. Well, that's dusty old science people. I think we've come to the end of another episode. Have we done that? I think so. Certainly, certainly we made it through. Thanks everyone for listening to another episode of This Week in Science.

This Week in Science. This Week in Science, it's the end of the world. So I'm setting up a shop, got my banner unfurled. It says the scientist is in, I'm gonna sell my advice. Show them how to stop the robots with a simple device. I'll reverse below the warm up in your way. So every skin science. This Week in Science. Science. This Week in Science. This Week in Science. I've got one disclaimer and it shouldn't be news that what I say may not represent your view. Listen up everybody, it's the after-show. Just... We are joined by our guest, Mr. Felix. Hello, Mr. Felix. Somebody's almost ready to read show notes. I heard him chime in in. He said, what? Very much in there. Talk for science. Talk for science. He's like, talk about the haikus that come to you in the night. Little baby haikus. I would like to see them all. Felix says, I will touch your keyboard. I'm gonna make all the things happen. Oh yeah, he's very much into technology. What kid isn't? Geez, it's so stimulating. So we're gonna bounce. We're gonna go grab some breakfast. Good, yeah, go feed some babies. I'm gonna bounce on to my mattress then. You can do that as well. Oh, should I already say it? You guys wanna talk about any of the after-show or you could do... I'm not here, there's no after-show. Is that what happens? No, I mean, unless we have something that's merely that we need to talk about, but I mean, seriously, I would love to stay for an after-show, but I mean, if you're going, we can all go, and that's okay. It's all right. I think it's very exciting that we got to see Felix this morning, so that is great. How do you see them? Can you say hi? Hi, Felix. Hi, Felix. Hi. Hi. He can't hear us though, right? No. No, he probably can't hear you. That's it, yeah. Hi, I'm waving. Hi, Felix. Hi, Felix. Hi, Felix. Hi. Hello. Hello, Felix. Hello. Hi. Hey. He's like, oh, what is happening here? He's confused. Yeah, he's just waking up. So go ahead and say good night, Blair. Good night, Blair. Say good morning, Justin. Good morning, Justin. Good night. Hi, Kiki. Good night, everyone, and good morning, Felix. I hope everyone has a wonderful day, slash night, sat, slash week, all the things that you're doing. Thank you for joining us for another episode of This Week in Science. We'll be back again next Wednesday, P.M. Pacific Time. Let us know if there's anything in the meantime. You want us to know us to know about, but we'll be back. Don't eat wild fish. Thank you for your time. Stay safe, stay healthy, stay curious. I love how you're always searching for that final word. Stay curious, don't eat wild fish. Don't run with, remember not to run with scissors, everybody. That's right. I got the things. Don't teach man eat fish, he day. Don't, don't undercook your eggs. This is it. I like my stapler. Okay. Everyone have a wonderful week. We'll see you again next Wednesday.

If you're new here, my name is Seppy and this is my sister's soul We haven't done a sit-down video together in like definitely a real year But I'm really excited to do this and I'm really glad to have a chit chat and deep talk with soul Just about life, what's been going on with us and how our mentalities might have changed since we last had a sit-down together and Just shed some wisdom and advice with you guys What do you think soul? I love that idea. I'm excited for this. I know I think we haven't done one of these in ages Also guys side note. Look at my teeth Soul did in Visaline. I'm so far. We've gone two shades lighter with my teeth I'm obsessed any of you guys want to see mine before and after Head over to the Dr. S dentistry Instagram to see Just go to any of my videos from 2021 or earlier and you'll see how different my smile was and I just love how it looks And one of those well, like you can't stop smiling because you'd be like it We're still gonna do some bonding. I think for a few of the teeth But if we do we'll shout that on the journey to make sure you follow I think you need to just leave it as is for at least a couple of weeks and then see if what you feel afterwards Because as much as I love bonding, I think this looks beautiful. Yeah, I think you've done a great job So we're gonna start off with some questions some of which you guys had sent into previously Some of which I've come up with which I think are a bit deep and that I would want to know From myself my point of view now and I want to know your point of view now on that The first one is Let's talk about love I love love. I love people in love. It's coming up to Valentine's Day So Speaking of do you have a date on Valentine's Day? No I'm not lying. I'm doing my masters in Liverpool And I'm going to Liverpool on my own. So Would you have had a date on Valentine's Day if you weren't going to Liverpool? Yes I don't have a date on Valentine's Day She really steals my thunder because I was going to be there like yeah, no, I don't have a date and then she goes no I don't have one. I was like, okay Um, I don't have a date on Valentine's Day, but I'm not going to lie to you guys I have had in the past weekend alone like people message me like out of the woodwork like hey Do you want to go out tonight? What are you doing? Blah blah blah. So I feel like guys sense Valentine's Day as much as girls And maybe don't want to be single on Valentine's Day, which I think I was speaking about this with some girls yesterday Sorry, not single on their own on Valentine's Day. Maybe maybe but I was speaking about with some some girls yesterday and um, some of them were single and some of them were in relationships and the one one of the girls who was in a relationship was saying I really don't care about Valentine's Day. And then The other girls were like it's because you have a boyfriend that you don't think it's a big deal Like by blah and she was like no even before that. I didn't think it was a big deal Um, so do you think it's big deal? Yeah, I think it is. I think when you don't have oxygen You only miss oxygen when you don't have oxygen. Does that make sense? So you think having someone is like having oxygen Maybe the wrong analogy. I was gonna say you really think of third Maybe the wrong analogy, but I feel like you don't You want it more when you don't have it and it's not so much you want it more There's been so many times where I have been so comfortable with being single and I find that other people have a problem with it I'd have colleagues patients asking me about my dating life and I'm happy with being single You know, I was happy with being single. It's other people that don't have They're not happy with it and have an issue with it. Yeah, and it's the same for Valentine's Day I was happy last Valentine's Day. I was happy like I was really looking forward to coming home Sitting down on the sofa with the dog and a takeaway and watching some nonsense on tv Or some old episodes of friends My parents had a reservation No outside and they were like no, no, no, no, you have to come with us. I was like, no They missed their reservation and took me to a local restaurant just so I could go with them So I'm not on my own on Valentine's Day. It was lovely However, you would have liked to be by yourself. Yes I really would have you know instead of taking pictures of them What do you think? Valentine's Day, I'm the kind of person I love. I'm very romantic. I love love. I love when When I am in a relationship, I'd love to celebrate Valentine's Day But I do think Valentine's Day might be seen as less important when you're in a relationship Like that's kind of new But let's say if you're married and a few years have passed and you hear like all these couples Like there's a podcast bar, etc. where they lose the spark They forget to like surprise their partner and they forget to do anything romantic And I feel like that's what Valentine's Day is really really good for in terms of love Like it's good to remind you to show Some love and affection and show that you've thought of someone I get that like it might be a queue for loads of brands and shops, etc I like to use it as marketing to get you to spend money and I feel like as a Romantic person myself I don't necessarily get the biggest joy on Valentine's Day from going and sitting in a restaurant Where all the tables are two people two people two people. I actually that that cringes me out a lot But I think it's more in like the flowers the thoughts the texts in the morning Like happy Valentine's Day and just that kind of stuff is more I like the cards The cards I just really like the card Is Valentine's Day a commercial exploitation of love? Yes But does it matter? No Any excuse to celebrate love is a good enough excuse. Yeah, I think that's a good one. Do you believe in soulmates? I really don't know Soulmates of the opposite sex or someone that you're physically attracted to or could it be that you're my soulmate? No, I mean like a partner in life soulmate Like one forever. Yeah I don't know sir Have you met anyone and you're like this is my soulmate because I feel like what I've understood soulmates to be As someone who from the get go you knew they were your soulmate I love at first sight love at first sight almost but like you just you sat with them You spoke with them and you clicked and you're like you're my lobster That's very cute Do I believe in that? Yeah I believe that there's something better than what I imagine there to be I'm not sure I understand that Yes, I've won someone that's perfect for me. Oh my god. That's lovely But what if that someone is tick boxes that aren't really there does that make sense? Like they're better than what you envision them to be They're just you know, they open your eyes their way of thinking is completely different to yours And they just compliment you like I don't want to date a copy of myself Yeah And it's so nice to have like Someone who teaches you new things shows you a whole new world Yeah, so I used to say that I'd love to see the eye in the world in four eyes And how nice is that when someone's outlook on life is completely different to yours? Yeah, it's beautiful I think that's one of the reasons why me personally. I'm a doctor. I've never dated a doctor It's just my job. What do you want me to say? But I've never dated a doctor and I feel like one of the reasons people always ask me that like How come you've never like gone out with a with a doctor like you've never ever given them a chance when when they show you Have you never gone on a date with a doctor? No, never ever like not even one date No, have you ever fancied anyone? like a doctor No, if it like as in not a realistic one like for example Oh, except you're gonna marry a doctor I don't believe that Personally, I don't mean that because I believe in the same thing as you and that I want to see Like I want to hear about different experiences like it's I personally and again This is probably a weird thing to say, but I don't really like dating at all Like I just I I'm not a fan of it Like I feel like I know from the start when I meet like someone If I'm going to get along with them and if it's going to progress or something And when your friend's kind of like force you like Give this guy a chance like you should go out on a date with him I can usually tell already in my brain's vetting process if this is going to work or not So I just don't like going on dates For like the sake of going on dates like I do mean a second date or a third day No, even a first date because with me I've never dated like online. So everyone who I've Been on a date with anyone who I've ever been on a date with I've met first or been introduced to first and then Going on a date with them. Okay So yeah, that's why I feel like in general I don't really like dating because I will usually know Before even the date just speaking to someone a bit if I would like them or not and Sometimes I just I feel like I prefer being which isn't I don't think it's the best way by the way But like sometimes when you're in like a certain mindset you have some goals You're like I really don't want to then spend this evening with this person Who I feel like even like give you a chance and yeah, there might be something But I know in my brain that you're not the one you've already made up your mind Yeah, I felt like I don't sometimes I just I don't even bother because I'm like there's no point And when I do bother my friend's like see you should give this person a chance and I'm like see I didn't like them You know So I feel like I really went off cue with what what we were talking about. What was the question? I really can't remember. I feel like we're talking about so many Yeah, and we're talking about dating doctors But yeah, like the same with doctors like I feel like when I've been on dates So I've been really fascinated by the other person They never ever like do anything that I know anything about because then I ask them about their work and I find it so intriguing And especially if like someone's an entrepreneur I find it really really cool that someone has their own drive Like I have a job where if I don't show up there is a bunch of people waiting for me There's a bunch of people dependent on me whereas when you're an entrepreneur You need to show up for yourself first So I find that really cool like when you when you date someone to like and they're an entrepreneur or something It gives you like that different mindset. So yeah I want someone to look at me the way I look at you I want someone to look at me the way you look at me too, but maybe in Less creepy. Yeah, not in a sibling way actually. So Yeah, and maybe I don't want that But do I believe in soul mates? I feel like no I feel like You sit with someone and after a while of letting your walls down naturally because I think everyone to some extent Always have some sort of guard or walls and and once you allow that to come down You allow yourself to converse with the person you can then see what they're really About and if you click and then that's what matters. I don't think I'd ever I've ever looked at someone I'm like, uh you you're mine Do you think you agree with that? No, I do. Yeah Yeah, there we go. That's what we think about soul mates How can you tell if someone's won't be you? Oh Uh They let me their chicken wings They let me drink their wine Just the casual stuff, you know, and I can speak to them freely without being judged, you know I start conversing I don't usually speak my mind I'm a hold back quite a bit And when I start speaking that's when I know I'm comfortable with someone. Yeah And then also when they make an effort with my family I really love that. I love that when people were one particular But that's quite far down the line, isn't it? Like I don't think no I like people to meet my family quite quickly Because if you're not going to get along then one of my best friends is like that. She um her ex partner Um, she introduced him after like three weeks of them being together because she wanted to know if like her mom and her dad liked him Um, and then she could still date him and they went out for like five six years So and also they're all I think about and everything else in life is just noise until the next time I see them Oh, yeah deep. Yeah I feel like you know if someone's the one for you if you feel most comfortable in yourself around them And you're harm. I read this thing and I realized it's so true like In my life if I've ever Dated someone and they've been right with me, especially since I've been an adult Not like when when you're younger. I only started dating when I was like 18 19 So when you're like at that age, I feel like you still have your own Insecurities and things but when you get a bit older and you know who you are a bit more and you're more comfortable in yourself Um, when you meet someone else and you can stay that same level of relax and calm with them But also find them really attractive. I think that's when you know, they're the one for you Don't you find that they become more attractive? Of course, of course And you look back you look back at like someone you dated me like oh like what was I thinking like you're so Not like as cute as I thought you were or something and then you remember like all the things they did to make you feel Excited and bubbly and that you're like, oh, yeah, okay now I get it Um, but I think that's how you know they're the one and also like I feel like it's a safety thing like I always want someone who makes me feel safe as well and Safe secure You know in your heart of heart when you start getting little anxieties about them That's it. My dad says something which is rather beautiful And it's that no one can fool us like we can fool ourselves. That's very true So you know when someone's toxic, you know when you see those red flags You don't need a friend or a sibling or anyone to tell you you've already seen it trust yourself So I feel like there's two types of toxic toxic I feel like there's the overtly obvious toxic the one who is horrible to you root to you puts you down And just makes you feel like crap. That's the first kind of negativity and toxic energy And then I feel like the second kind of toxic is the more dangerous one Because it's the person who seems so lovely and it's like the devil in disguise They'll make you feel like they're a lovely person that you can trust that are really nice But will just make you feel insecure about little things So they'll tell you that they love you and then they care about you, etc But for example, they might be like oh, but I'm not sure that I can be with you because I just don't think you know My family would think you're good enough for me That's toxic because that's someone saying I I think you're good enough for me, but they don't but they I'm think they won't they won't see you as good enough for me So that's I love you regardless of that. Yeah, you're not perfect And they will see that you're not perfect, but I will stand by you regardless of that like I feel like that's an example Fortunately, I've not dated someone like that But I hear it through my friends. I'm like, please see this for yourself because I like soul said I feel like you can't no one can fool you any you can fool yourself You can't wake up someone who's pretending to sleep. I think that's definitely one of the the other toxic people that you need to kind of keep Be aware of and keep in mind in your life And make sure that you don't give them too much of your energy if there was one thing And I guess this is another question for you to think about if there was one thing that you can go back and tell yourself From when you were like 20 years old, um or 19 years old, you don't even need to finish that Put yourself fast don't give up on yourself in terms of don't Put the time that you don't sacrifice the time that you have for yourself or someone else Be it anyone else in your life If you want to go to the gym still make time to go to the gym if you want to go out with your friends Still make time to go out with your friends. I'll give you guys an example as well of one of one of my friends Um, we were going out to dinner. We told her come to dinner with us We're going out to dinner, etc We'd said it from a week before and she hadn't responded yet So comes the day of the dinner. We're like, you're gonna come to dinner with us And she was like, oh, I'm gonna see if my boyfriend Goes to football then yeah, I'll come but if he decides not to go to football then I'm just gonna go and chill at his house So I think that's really prophetic So I feel like that's An example of a time where you are not prioritizing yourself and you're putting someone else ahead of you So as soon as you start disrespecting I found that as soon as I started disrespecting myself It made it very easy for other people to start disrespecting me And then I began to become resentful because they were disrespecting me. So now I Like to respect myself. I like to keep time for my family my friends My leisure activities Yeah, I think that's so true I think it does one thing that I could tell my younger self It would probably be To know my worth I think a lot of times I used to think that if I didn't give the answer that the other person wanted to hear And this could even go towards friendships as well and any sort of relationship not just um with a partner But I used to think that if I didn't give the answer that the other person wanted to hear That it would jeopardize my relationship with that person or make them feel bad and I would care more about How they felt then I would care about how I felt So it was your inner chimp trying to make them happy Chimp paradox guys if you guys haven't read it neither of I am going to read it I listened to it. He's got a new book out actually in the jungle So I'm going to read the chip paradox. We love The Diary of a CEO by Stephen. Oh, we just love Stephen I think that's one of my goals in life. I want to make it on time. No, we love Stephen so much He's so good. I love his podcast I think those are people have discovered his even more in the past year Right makes it even better because when you talk about him and his podcast people know what you're on about And they're under the same spell What do you think is a good age to start dating? It's up to you Whatever what's right for me is completely different for what's right for sappy We all reach Emotional maturity at a different age So you have to be A little emotionally mature, I guess I think if you don't want someone to take advantage of you, then you definitely need to be mature for sure because if you And we all naturally do it if we are all just going on the state with someone because we like them But we don't know what we expect of it. We don't know what we want from it We don't know anything then someone else can sway us So you have to know in your head even if it's nothing that you want you have to know I don't want anything So that no one else can sway you to what they want if that makes sense That's very true. It shouldn't be going to expectations. It shouldn't be what you expect From the other person. It's what you expect for yourself Does that make sense because you cannot predict how the other person will react and if they don't meet those Expectations that you have they'll make you really unhappy. However, if you have no expectations from them But you have certain standards that they need to meet. It's very different I really agree with that. I really agree. This is what I would like. I'd like to be treated with respect I'd like to I'd like a phone call. I'd like I don't know you want them to open the door for you like whatever those are And it should be what you want not what you expect from them. Does that make sense? I really really think that the times in life that you've been like really hurt or heartbroken let down by someone Is when you created them to be someone else in your head that they're not And that's why you've technically let yourself down not the other person letting you down You start dating someone for example And you let's say you're a guy and you think that the girl that you're dating is Super chill. She doesn't care about if you have loads of girl mates She doesn't care if you want to go out to the pub all the time with your friends She doesn't care about any of those things. She's super laid back. She's happy to see you Three times a week because you like three times a week and you want it to fit into your schedule And then she turns out to be someone who is not sure whether you're going out with your friends Once more date nights Rather than you going to the pub with your mates only wants to see you Twice a week not three times a week and then you'll laugh that being like The skull is so like not what I thought she was going to be and it's it's pretty much that it's because You've created something in your head rather than just letting someone be who they are and then seeing if that fits in with what you want 100% and I really agree with what's all sad of just because you're like not setting up this False idea in your head of what that person is doesn't mean that you shouldn't have expectations for yourself And you can voice if those expectations aren't that Don't be scared to voice them because the longer you're silent The more it will go on And the more upset you will be the other person doesn't know if we don't communicate with them They're not gonna know. Yeah, I agree with so for sure. And then let's say you meet someone who is quite toxic How would you advise someone to get out of toxic relationships because I know friends who've been in toxic relationships who've needed like the help of a therapist to get out of that first They are too scared to tell family and friends because that's a lot of the case like we're we're from Iran and We totally understand like every culture has its own mentality towards Dating and like we need to be like mindful and respectful of that too So maybe everyone can't go and tell their parents or their siblings that they are seeing someone And then if that person is quite toxic for them, they don't know how to end it and they don't have that support So what do you think you have to want to stop dating them? You have to want to be out of that relationship and you have to want to want better for yourself No one else can do it, but you you have to want that Yeah, sepi could want me to stop dating X Or my parents could but I'd have to want to ultimately the decision lies with me I have to see that they're toxic and then I have to do it And then I have to decide do I want to do it on my own or do I want to do it with their help Can I do it on my own use help the help of your friends and your family? Can I do it on my own or would it work best if I had their help? I think getting out of a toxic relationship can be so difficult because That person has a different kind of hold on you because they've Played a different mental game with you so to speak and that just makes it so much harder And if you don't have friends or family to support you and in breaking up with them, it can be difficult I would say the first thing I would do is work on my own self-esteem Right if you live with this person, I guess it can be harder So the other thing I would plan on doing is separating my finances so that I could Afford to move out if I need to right no one's saying that like if you're in a scenario that you need to run away from it Instantly unless you obviously fear something then obviously leave that scenario straight away But if it's just a case of someone not wanting good for you in general making you Feel overall lesser than you are or not getting what you deserve Then I think you need to plan an exit strategy. Whether that be moving out by yourself if you live with them Having your own income if you rely on them for financial income that could be really difficult So maybe getting a part-time job or a full-time job or a remote job And all of those things I think you need to plan those things so that when you have the when you've Plucked up the courage to say to them that you don't want to be with them anymore You don't need to linger around to have them drag you back in like you could be like, hey Really appreciate our time together But I don't think we work together because of x and I want x and you want y you want z and I want b You're talking apples. I'm talking pears. It doesn't work and don't give that person an opportunity To talk you out of it I think because if you sit around and wait for that opportunity Then you're going to be fooled and then you're going to be back into that cycle and you don't want that cycle I feel like that is everything Okay, and I want to have you tell me your favorite quote this to shall pass This to shall pass is a really good one Before we end this video We just want to draw your attention to what's going on in Iran If none of you guys are aware of what's happening in Iran There is a huge movement towards women's rights and freedom and general human rights for the people in Iran This all started since the death of masa amini in september 2022 the people in Iran have been protesting in the streets In iran and outside of iran the persian population has been supporting them This is a community of persians from all over the Kurdish the turkish iranians the azerbaijan iranians All of the persians have come together to stand up for the people of iran to be broken free from the dictatorship that is happening As a result of this many people who Who participated in peaceful protests are now being identified using security cameras in the streets and being called to prosecution and Being sentenced to death penalty Without many of them without a fair trial and many of them forced and beaten into giving false confessions It's been really really really difficult for us as iranians from outside to Watch and watch it and try and help and spread the message where we can Um, we've got some links down below in the description for anyone who feels like they can share the message Get involved sign petitions and try and get the whole world talking about this guys We'd really appreciate it if you could share and you could post about the movement in iran Every single post helps It really does. It's linked down in the description if you guys want to read more about what has triggered all of this What it is we're speaking about you can have a read. Thank you guys so much On a positive note, we wish you all a happy valentine's day in advance. We love you. We really do I love you. I love you too And we'll see you next time.

UC_eJsmK-DMqA9Dy7bLKKL-g	Giving learners course access	Part of the Moodle Teaching Basics program on moodle.academy. This video relates to Moodle 4.3.	null	2023-12-04T11:26:18	2024-02-05T06:30:48	160	5rzQP2jMNYI	Giving learners course access. There are a number of ways in which your learners can access your course. For example, your administrator might enroll them for you, or they might be automatically enrolled from outside, or they might be able to create their own accounts on the Moodle site, and then enroll themselves into your course. Enrollment means how students get into your course, whereas authentication means how they get onto a Moodle site, which we don't explore here. In this video, we look at how you the teacher can manually add students to your course, and how you can find out the other ways in which they can access your course. If we click Participants from Course Navigation, we see any participants already enrolled in the course, and if there are a lot, we can search and filter with several options. If allowed, teachers can click the Enroll Users button to manually add a student. Note that as a course teacher, you can't add other editing teachers, unless allowed by admin. From the drop-down, by selecting Enrollment methods, we can see the different ways that they're able to access or be enrolled into a course. The first one we see is Manual Enrollment. This means that students can be enrolled into the course by the teacher. Guest Access here has its eye closed, so that means that currently no guests can look at this course, but the teacher can enable it by clicking the icon. Self Enrollment means that users can enroll themselves by clicking a button, if we enable this by opening the eye. If the admin has allowed other Enrollment methods, you can access them from the drop-down. Let's explore the options for Self Enrollment by clicking the icon. Here, you can set a password or Enrollment key, and you can also, amongst other options, set a limit on the number of learners who can join the course. Let's enable Self Enrollment, and follow student Barbara as she accesses the course. She sees the Enroll button, but first she has to enter the Enrollment key. She does this, and now can enroll into the course.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rzQP2jMNYI", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }
UCYkwFvKVf11cuBzzlqeUp8Q	The Teachers’ Research Exchange (T-REX) - Proposal - 21-22 November 2018	This project will continue to develop an online community of researchers, teacher educators, students in initial teacher education and those in schools nationally. The project will harness the potential of the online community to embed research practice into initial teacher education programmes nationally.	null	2018-11-30T17:01:59	2024-04-18T18:16:46	977	5RnnYZvY_Gg	Maen nhw'n marihail, wrth gwrs Mary Maclechwch. Oedden nhw'n ystyried i'n gwybod i'r ysgolwgr AMF Mae'r awl iawn, Mary Maclechwch, Jennifer Redman, Llympgein Llymwric, Allison Egan, maen nhw'n ef oedd unigfaith o gyfan ac Tony Hall, yng ngyraig NUI. A chi'n tu'r gweithio ar sy'n tu, ond ein teulu, o'rful mae ymgyrch, flwyddyn yw ychydig. A mae'r progect yn ysgrifiannol, siaradau i'r ardufed o'r ysgrifiannol. I'm going to begin with some history firstly, some ancient history and some more recent history. I suppose our earliest and most eminent educational philosophers, way back from the time of John Henry Pestilotsi to John Dewey, have been talking about the essential requirement for teachers to be researchers. I spoke about the importance of teachers engaging in regular cycles of inquiry, looking at their practice, learning from learners, for learners, and for the wider educational community once they share and add to that body of knowledge. But somewhere along the way that researcher role, which was seen as so central and so important, became peripheral and ultimately detached. That responsibility for educational research was assumed by higher educational institutions. I suppose this is where a big gap emerged between educational research and educational practice. Irish teachers are frustrated with that gap. At the beginning of this whole process we spoke to teachers on the ground and one of them spoke in relation to the higher education institutions and schools. They said they're like two different worlds and there's a lack of a link between the two and that's a link that is needed to change practice and to move things forward. So that really is our vision. It's the vision for this project to build a digital bridge between these two very disparate worlds. So now the more recent history. So in 2015 we came to the National Forum against a policy backdrop which was really pushing this teacher researcher approach in teacher education. We had pushes within the ITE teacher accreditation guidelines going from the teaching council but also in national policy documents for teachers. And we came and we presented this vision which was to create a digital infrastructure for student researchers, for teacher researchers, and for higher education researchers to engage and collaborate together in an online community of practice for educational research. Sort of ensuring that educational research was informed by educational practice and vice versa. And we have moved quite a long way on that journey but I suppose we haven't fully realised the ambition yet. So first of all I suppose we had to build that bridge and we did succeed in delivering feature-rich technology. We built the bridge. That was the first big job that we had to do and we did that. But I suppose also we had to ensure that we had a community and we had to take a number of steps to build that community and we succeeded in bringing about a large community which included student researchers, teacher researchers and higher education researchers and by the end of that approach we'd over a thousand active users. So we told people about the bridge, we brought them to the bridge and we figured out some effective ways of getting them to cross that bridge and meet each other in the middle. So we piloted on a small scale a number of different ways that worked effectively to actually use this project. I suppose we presented this slide at the end of our national review piece before. We said a lot done what to do so we were able to recycle this slide. We had clearly identified areas that we needed to work on and the base of feedback as well from the forum. I suppose the biggest thing was some people maybe found the bridge a little bit difficult to navigate. So we have looked at trying to incorporate some software developments in terms of this new package and this new project. But I suppose in order to secure the ultimate long-term value of this project we needed to embed it into ITE practice. So that is the big focus of this particular project. We also wanted to diversify participation. It was very small scale the last time. We embedded it in a few of our own modules but now we've got new partners on board with us. We're delighted to have Reno Institute of Education with us and we're extending a national reach to try and push this project in a much more national impact. Building more partnerships as we go through the process and a bigger community, a more vibrant and active community. And more support materials to guide people along the way as they navigate that bridge. Okay so now to the future. What are we going to deliver? Well this project has three core strands right. The first one is looking at integrating research into teaching and learning right. So rather than I suppose the last time when we came up here we were thinking okay we're going to target research methods modules that's what we were about here. But we realized over the course of our project and what the focus of here is it's not about this detached isolated approach to research methods. It's about an incremental integrated approach to research methods. So what we're talking here is not about the research methods modules. We're talking about integrating TREX and collaborative research engagement into the general ITE modules. Be they teaching of maths, teaching of language, inclusion, integrating in that way. So that students are experiencing research methods. They're linking practice and research in a real life way as they go out throughout their program. Not this detached thing that happens at the end and they don't really see the relevance of it. So that's core to the whole piece. The second strand is to build that community and I'll speak to you about the ways that we have conceptualized in terms of how we are going to do that. And the last piece is about software support. Improving our software. Improving the web platform and finessing the app and really working on the application for the site. And more support material so that people can actually use this very effectively. So how are we going to go about doing this? Well we are going to begin with stakeholder dialogues. We are going to begin by having workshops in all the ITE institutions between students and lecturers to facilitate collaborative reflection on the teaching and learning experience. To figure out what these people actually need and what is actually going to work for them. To hear the voice of the students and to hear the voice of the lecturers. And I suppose the student voice is central to this. And in fact it was one of the biggest drivers of this focus that we have in this particular piece of work. The students the last time said to us and I'm paraphrasing a quote, a very powerful quote that we actually were very moved by it. They said to us yeah you know we had done research methods modules before but we didn't really see them as being relevant for our jobs as teachers. But now having experienced a t-rex integrated approach to a module. Now research is so important. This is the voice of the students. So that has really influenced our approach in this absolutely. Module redevelopment programme is really looking, after that we are going to look at an intense look at professional development for the lecturers so that they can integrate it with supports. Because it takes a lot of time, it will take a lot of work and support in order to do that. So we are working on doing that and we also want to make sure that we produce and work examples as we like to call them t-rex employers of how people have effectively used this in their practice so that they can share that as a resource for future. We have a very clear focus in terms of how to build our community of practice. We learned very quickly in the previous project that just setting up a digital infrastructure and bringing people there doesn't mean that they're going to talk to each other. That you can't just organically expect a community of practice to grow. You have to scaffold it and we've done that in this focus week approach. So we pick an identified team related to education and we share research news related to that identified team over the course of that week. We invite members of our community who have done Emmett's and done undergraduate dissertations on that particular theme but nobody ever hears about them to create three minute dissertation or thesis videos to share on rex. We're going to set up journal clubs so that we can invite our colleagues who will be related to a particular theme to pick one of their research journals which often might not have huge readership and it's definitely not going to get too much readership in the teaching or student population so that they can share it with a particular group on rex of teachers and students and they can discuss it to show real impact and to try and translate that research into having a research impact and we will continue as well with the very successful rexpert chats or t-rexpert chats now where we bring an international expert which will be related to the theme to discuss that theme and the research related to that theme with the students and teachers and a t-rex advisory panel will also be set up to ensure that this is an iterative process evolving process with voice of all stakeholders represented on that and finally the last round is software and development we're going to look at refining features and looking at some structural redevelopment of the platform on the basis of previous feedback improving the visibility of the projects and we're also going to really work on that mobile app development which students spoke to us as being really critical for their engagement with the platform and we're also going to try and capture user experience more so in support materials so that students can and lecturers can navigate the whole process much more effectively and easily so i'm going to hand you over now to my colleague Merrick McGann who's going to talk to you about impact and sustainability okay so um Maria has already hit on a number of the things where we're going to see impact um the some of the the strands of the project and primarily involve a substantial amount of professional development and to a large extent um the the resources here are set aside in order to take pressure off people who want to change and there is already a strong appetite for redevelopment of the way we do things and for better inclusion of research and so on in initial teacher education modules but everyone's under pressure and through dedicated spaces such as the workshops and then um support programs um that we've included in the work packages we basically just will offer an opportunity to just depressurize a little bit so that people get an opportunity to reflect and revise their work in collaboration and in dialogues from the start with teachers and other um sort of peers um those redeveloped modules then as Marie mentioned will will be developed into worked examples and the aim here at all stages really is to lower the bar for entry lower the barrier so as that it becomes easier and more fluid and less of a daunting challenge to change the way you do things and to adopt effective means of integrating research activity into your modules and this supports the just that culture of enhancement of evidence-based practice which is changing within the teaching profession nationwide within Ireland and also then essentially has is having knock-on effects throughout initial teacher education as a result and because all of this is scaffolded through the the online social network it's in going to involve a lot of integration with technology-based delivery and therefore we will see improved technological self-efficacy with ITE module leaders as well within the community development we've got a wider network we already have new initial teacher education institutions on board through marino and we've had very very useful and very positive dialogues with the likes of the Institute of Education in DCU as well and through another other partnerships we have sort of an extensive professional network for research engagement in in teaching as well which I'll talk a little bit more about in a second and one of these things the as Marie mentioned what REX allows or TREX allows is this bringing together of people from different professional backgrounds teachers can be on TREX they don't have to join a specific university teaching system in order to do it and student teachers start with TREX and they keep the same profile as they go out into the teaching world and we already have examples of students who were in final year modules that involved sort of a TREX a REX based component who have now come back as the teachers to collaborate with students in in those same modules so that there's a sort of a gradual growing of the community in that way in terms of sustainability for membership history today shows a strong potential for growth and as Marie mentioned we have more than a thousand active members we're in the the 1300s thereabouts but just to one of the the principle means we do it is through the joy of having the captive audience of undergraduate students and PME students and BED students across the country so even if we just take these dotted lines are cumulative numbers of graduates per annum from each of the participating institutions even if only 10% of those students stick around and continue to use REX through their teaching life we get this green and sort of gradually growing graph of engaged TREX users and that doesn't include the teachers and because this is with this project we're focused on the area of higher education the aim is to focus on bolstering that aspect of the community but we have a complementary project which will involve other elements of um to sort of round out the community um so we will we aim to continue to recruit other IT providers but also crucially we're building national level governance structures in collaboration with professional bodies that includes the teaching council that includes the national council for curriculum and assessment and the centre for effective services um and they are we're developing a sort of a TREX steering group to help guide the the development of the project within national priorities and the TREX advisory forum or the TREX advisory panel as Marie mentioned which is a forum of stakeholders and students um higher educational professionals um teachers and um professional support bodies um so very and that really is the sort of the aim to sort of continue to develop the the clicker seems to have stopped working so I'll just sort of briefly mention as well in terms of maximising that sustainability there is a there's another project which is focused on bringing the teachers um the TREX is already in use uh continued use by research engaged teachers um so this is the teaching council website and through um they are sort of already advertising the what it was the REX and is going to become the TREX system as a means of sharing research activity um and also there is a supported project by this research alive consortium as they call themselves the teaching council the NCCA and the CES who aim to drive um the embedding of TREX activities within schools and um teachers research activity through for example the teaching council's research support framework um that will bring the teachers to the group of students and higher educational professionals that we are looking for your support um in this instance. Thanks very much.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RnnYZvY_Gg", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

UCr5jq6MC_VCe1c5ciIZtk_w	Ernest Z. Bower Interviews U.S. Ambassador to Vietnam David Shear	Ernest Z. Bower Interviews U.S. Ambassador to Vietnam David Shear.	[ "120316", "dialog", "davidshear" ]	2012-03-29T16:05:23	2024-02-05T08:26:34	361	5rHOZoil7R4	Good afternoon. I'm Ernie Bauer, the senior advisor and director of the Southeast Asia program here at CSIS and we're very fortunate this afternoon to have the US ambassador to Vietnam David Shear with us. Welcome, David. Thank you very much, Ernie. Could you tell us a little bit about the status of US-Vietnam relations? We've normalized the relationship and now it seems to be going in some new directions. Overall, where are we headed? US-Vietnam relations have grown tremendously since we normalized relations in 1995. Last year, the two countries did $22 billion in two-way trade. That represented a 20% increase over 2010 trade. So the the relationship has great potential in the economic sphere. We also have great potential in diplomatic cooperation and people-to-people relations as well. We have 15,000 Vietnamese students studying in the United States now and they'll make tremendous ambassadors when they return to their home country. Absolutely. Vietnam is one of the nine countries, along with the United States negotiating the Trans-Pacific Partnership Trade Agreement. Could you tell us a little bit about the state of the negotiations and how Vietnam views it? Vietnam and the United States concluded a bilateral trade agreement 10 years ago. And when we concluded that agreement, two-way trade stood at about $400 million dollars. And as I mentioned earlier, two-way trade last year was $22 billion dollars. So both sides have benefited tremendously from the opening trade relationship we've established since the early 2000s. And we hope that with the conclusion of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, our economic relationship will move to the next level. And Vietnam has a great deal to benefit from further opening trade with the United States, as do we. You, on the trade side, we're making progress. What about on the strategic side? I think the United States and Vietnam are talking about a strategic partnership. What does that look like and what are the aspects of it? Vietnam and the United States have a strong common interest in continued peace and stability in Southeast Asia in general and in the South China Sea in particular. And we have worked together very closely to ensure that regional security issues remain very much on the multilateral agenda in regional diplomacy. And I expect that we will continue to cooperate very closely to pursue this common interest in the future. Congress, US Congress, has expressed concerns about the human rights and religious freedom issues in Vietnam. Can you give us an update on what's going on in those areas? Well, the Vietnam has a ways to go in order to improve their human rights record, as our annual Human Rights Report suggests. The Vietnamese, we hope, will do what will work hard to release political prisoners to increase the opportunities for freedom of expression and freedom of association. And we also look for improvements in religious freedom as well. The Vietnamese are also working on trafficking in persons. We've seen some improvements there. They have recently passed a anti-trafficking law and we expect to work very closely with the Vietnamese as they implement that law. Just a follow-up on that. The military-to-military relationship, obviously, you know, we've fought a war together against each other, but we are now talking about normalizing mill-to-mill relations. Could you give us a little look into that process? Military-to-military ties between our two countries took a big step forward last September when we concluded a memorandum of understanding on military cooperation. And on the basis of that MOU, we're going to explore further cooperation in such areas as peacekeeping, humanitarian assistance, and disaster relief, as well as military-to-military exchanges among our military training institutions. So I think we have a great deal of potential in this area and I would look to see us implementing that MOU over the next year or so. It's great. People-to-people ties, education. The United States just made a major donation on the education side for scholarships. Where are we on education and ties between our countries? Education represents a great export for the United States to Vietnam and it's got great future potential. As I mentioned earlier, we've got 15,000 Vietnamese students in the United States at in many different kinds of institutions of higher education. There's really a university or a college or a community college here for every Vietnamese requirement and we're encouraging even more Vietnamese to study in the United States. At the same time, we're very interested in helping the Vietnamese improve their own educational infrastructure and we're implementing a variety of programs in Vietnam to help them do that. Well, Ambassador Shearer, thank you for joining us today. We certainly are well represented and annoyed with you there. Thank you for coming.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rHOZoil7R4", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

And today we're gonna take a look at the fantastic show on HBO called Chernobyl. That's right, it is fantastic. It's in fact so good, I love everything about it. The music is great, the sound design is fantastic. The cast, the acting, the composition, the colors, just everything, so good. Actually I have so much to talk about that I wanna do a series for every episode. So it's gonna be up to one, two, three, four, five because I can't talk about everything, it would be hours. But anyway, so there's a long list for episode one, let's get straight to the clips. First up is this tiny little thing here as he prepares the tapes and wants to roll them up or does roll them up in newspaper here. What I love about this is that it's just slightly off, whoop, he stops and corrects. Now, besides prop handling, that's always interesting to me in terms of animation, but it's just an interesting detail that if you do have a character and there are props in the scene and they're aligned or it's something like a book or something where anything where you can show off that the character is very particular about details. I think it's just an interesting character moment. It doesn't have to be so on display, it can be a tiny thing like one of the previous acting analysis that I did where the character just adjusts the shoes and because she's so picky about this, she knows that a book is kinda misplaced. So there are little things that you can push in terms of character for a sequence but just as a tiny thing here, I like this. Next up, after the incident, the explosion occurred and I love this here. I love the introduction of the character and what the camera does and the change of composition. Now, you could technically cut out that middle part but what I wanna show you here is how it ends. So A, you have somewhat of a full body, you know, a full body kind of a waist out thing but so it can show a lot. It's a bit more about body posture and silhouette and everything. And then you have an intro of the second character. He just kinda comes in when he was sleeping but you can argue that maybe in your shot the character can stumble in or run in or maybe something happens in and pushes off the door or maybe still it comes in from the outside and there's a coat on and takes the coat off or whatever you wanna do but I think it's cool that you have one character here and because so much is empty here, you expect another character to enter. So I think it's a cool two character set up and I like how it goes from this to that and you can show this through just a simple pan followed by the characters and then you can show off full body, somewhat full body, right? Body mechanics, two facial close up. It's also interesting, we can see both of them but it's mainly that as a focus, although that with the hair you won't see much but it's something that you can obviously tweak but still you can show off multiple things in terms of body mechanics and then get into a close up. I think that's a really, really cool change of character composition. Here's something that I'm always a big fan of and that is doing something that is slightly off screen. He is a firefighter, he puts on boots. Puts on the boots and then that's it, second one, you talk about things and he gets up. So what I like about this is that the character does something that he would do and it's not specifically framed for that. Obviously you want to see the face and he just happens to put on the boots which kind of reminds me of that spider-verse shot where the character closes the door but it's not super visible, it's kind of just with his leg. I'm just a big fan of that more naturalistic performance where the character does something but we are focused on this and we just happen to kind of see what's going on off screen, it's not distracting, we still don't understand what's going on and it's not overly presentational. This section is really neat because I'm always a huge fan of putting characters in sets, using props and having environments and using environments to change specific acting choices or drive certain acting choices. And what I like about this is that if you are putting a character in an environment, make sure that the character is aware of the environment of what happened, what's going on and can you use this to your advantage? So in this case, given that this is all broken even if you watch this, you're here, stuff is breaking and creaking and the specific sound right as it goes in. And what I like about that is that he is aware of the environment. The sound of the environment influences him and his acting. Because if you just have a walk and opening a door can be interesting from a mechanics point of view but if you let's say, whatever set you wanna add it could be something where stuff is broken and then there's maybe water dripping out. So as the character starts to open maybe because of the opening of the door or something happens and stuff drips on his face and then he or she can wipe that off. So anything that makes it a bit more interesting than just having a character, as I always say in an empty scene. So having a character in this here and having that, even if it's just through sounds but it will still be something that triggers more interesting acting choices. And speaking of set, here's another one. What I love about this is that as the characters go into this and they are framed by the door frame look at what this character does. The talk can exit and you just see the hand, yes he comes in and it's an interesting thing of A you can show off two characters and then you can do something where you only act through a hand which to me is always very interesting where you can kinda push certain things where a character is kinda cut off and a character can even hold a newspaper and flick it or just do this but also for contrast what I like is that he's doing this and it comes back in just for a little bit of contrast and change and then out and then he does this thing here but something like that to me is again interesting where it's not just we have two characters and you gotta watch them and it might be boring you can add something a bit more interesting a bit more contrast and also do some interesting finger acting and if you need to hand finger acting watch anything with Harrison Ford. This one I thought was neat because he is talking but he's not in focus, we are looking at him. So he says something and we did everything right whatever the line is and there's just that reaction the doubts and potential panic what I like about that is I'm always a big fan of characters reacting and listening to what another character says now this is kinda neat because this could function as your first time lip sync so that you're doing the lip sync for this and because it's out of focus you won't really pay attention to it but you can still kinda practice but the focus is all on this character listening, taking all this in thought process and reacting this could be something more subtle like that a little bit of a swallow which I'm always a big fan of because that's not really available in rigs or you can do something bigger could be a smile, could be a bigger reaction but kinda like this idea that you do have a two character shot and you do have technically lip sync but you can kinda like, let me just practice and there won't be so much focus because it's actually not in focus and everything that I'm gonna polish is on this character listening. Here is a classic wait assignment he is carrying another victim of this accident but it's not like it's a bag of potatoes that he just kinda swings over and just kinda lets it fall look at how delicate he is with putting it down read lots of little adjustments there making sure that the character is not getting hurt despite being already extremely hurt and even at the end here that little bit of a there's that little extra long hold on the hedge just I care about this character make sure that this character doesn't fall onto the ground but again, if you have something where it's a wait assignment what is the character carrying? Could be against a bag that's uneven so it makes it more challenging to hold kinda like the way you have it here with a lot of adjustments versus a big box that you have very obviously very strong corners and areas where the character can hold and always have a steady grip so to me it's if you do a wait assignment where the character carries something think about what is the object obviously and that will drive the acting choices and does this character care about what he or she is holding and carrying and putting down or lifting or whatever your assignment is this is all about lip sync but to me it's always what's after the lip sync that's also interesting so he kinda threatens this character saying you know I can't make it better for you but I can certainly make it worse and then he realizes all right well this is not a good thing here I'm not gonna fight this then he says well do the thing that I'm telling you to do I'm paraphrasing horribly by the way and then he says yeah, yeah, yeah but I like it about that is the end so after he says yes long look and then that turn I love how he turns away I love that actor that look, blink and then turn and he's constantly so kinda relaxed but also it doesn't really give a crap about things attitude in this despite the horrible incident but I love this technically so you would have lip sync and then your audio file kinda stops but you don't really have to stop the shot what if you add one more thing especially if you start with the shot like this it's on a weird ending kinda book ends you know this and this but I love this I love that you have that and then his long judging look and then turn away and I love that he doesn't blink either so one of those things where when do you wanna blink? lots of blinks, no blinks very threatening just that stare so good but the one thing is that so if this character talks you know obviously you got your wave file your sound file and blah blah blah and you got noise and if you stop then you suddenly have just dead silence so what I would do is I would find files that give you room tone, room noise whatever you wanna call this and actually I'm gonna put a link in description that has all kinds of stuff so if you have something where your audio stops here maybe you know this is your lip sync and then you wanna add one more thing at the end that's this reaction here so what you can do if you have this here find room noise and then put it over the whole thing now this clip might already have room noise you gotta find something that's similar and make it very small you know in the volume and then obviously bring it up more here but I would just pay attention to those kind of things where if you do have something where the sound cuts off it's not noise, noise, noise in music and then suddenly silence anything you can do to smooth out that transition it's very picky this might just be me but something to potentially pay attention to but again I love that this is such a cool ending to obviously the whole episode is awesome but as I'm picking out this moment here it's a good exchange especially his lines and again you don't have to stop when the lip sync stops you can still add one more thing to give him more character is he more menacing or okay or suddenly he could smile and make it a creepy smile or is he smiling and realized hmm he actually wasn't that serious he was just kind of a joke so whatever you can do you can change the scene by adding one more thing at the end now this is not potentially something you can do in your reel but just speaking of that sequence I love this moment where he tells him he tells the other guy on the phone if I'm up then he's up but what I like about that editing is that when he says that if I'm up he's up then it cuts to bam we know exactly oh well that's what he is talking about and it's a simple thing that again you can't really use on your reel potentially but what I want to show you is this he is waiting and this is your classic waiting assignment but I like the changes especially like the little swings and how the fingers are in you can barely see this but that little thing there a little nervous tap there he does a bit of a scratch which classic already does that but I love the pacing then he sees the car and I also love that and then he changes straight to a fast little move and again the fingers a little tightening there lots of things even here getting ready okay I'm gonna start talking to him nervous just all those little things here I love that and this is your classic waiting assignment that you might get at whatever school or that you wanna do at home for yourself and you can do again something where you have a full body shot waiting assignment in terms of I'm gonna show this my arms and my legs and everything or do this or both right you do full body and then you wanna cut to something that's a bit closer for more detail in the face potentially but I wanted to show this as an example because a waiting assignment is a classic thing that students do at school I mean at least I did it I'm assuming nowadays it's still being done I think it's a good exercise but anyway, that's just an example I wanted to show and that's it now speaking of something that students do is at least to me I think it's too much gesturing with arms and then you end up being in a pose where it's too twinned and it's just too gesturing and too big and it's always kind of the default thing that students usually go or gravitate towards what I like about this is that he does have, I wouldn't say gesture but it's a smaller thing with his fingers he's somewhat frustrated he's bored on angry but he's also a bit nervous and I like that little tiny thing now sometimes you shoot this reference and then you start adding this in animation and it becomes too poppy and it's weird and you might not be able to exactly take all of this and use the fingers but my thing is always if you start a shot and you act it out, put your arms behind your back and just act it out just with the body and the head that to me will always be more interesting and then you will add one or two gestures for contrast and emphasis but I do like that little thing on the finger end up the hands in general even here on the second shot just that, just those little things here you can show all of this all of the tension, the impatience and everything and it doesn't have to be a big hand or arm gesture but just that tiny thing here still adds to the, you know, again so the panic or to the nervousness that this character goes through or feels this one is potentially tricky again not, I don't know if you can take this directly for your for a shot, as a real shot or for an exercise but I wanted to show it anyway I love this guy that comes in look at that face it seems like he's just judging fam, judging that guy right away or judging the environment but as this guy stood out to me I love what he does afterwards so watch him he goes and then walks around and then he checks the chair he checks the chair and goes, nope I'm gonna sit somewhere else who does that? who does that? did the director tell him to do this? this is something that he decided to do I don't think you would see this in an animation movie this is something so weird and specific actor-wise I don't know this is so cool it cracked me up but anyway, do you wanna do this in your shot and your reel? maybe maybe not, I'm not sure and again, the same thing with this afterwards but basically what I wanna show you I just love this whole this first episode it's so good throughout just everything again, sound design and acting but these guys have to brief everybody else and obviously they're slightly nervous and they wanna make sure that they don't say that everything is horrible they're making a joke mainly this guy makes a joke and I love the reaction of this guy he goes, hey, hey, right? right guys, right guys? then he goes back to maybe it's not that funny but also I like the reactions of other people there's a slight little smile maybe he does something maybe but I love this I love that you have that nervous moment here and that okay, well, let's diffuse attention then make a little joke and that little weasel does, yeah, yeah, yeah, I find this funny even though it's not funny at all anyway, can you use this for a shot? maybe, I mean, you can argue that in the audio that you chose for your lip sync that it's clear that this character is nervous and is making a horrible joke trying to distract those people from the horrible truth and maybe you wanna put another character as kind of a sidekick that's kind of that weasel that does this actually, why not? This could be an interesting thing if you just take this moment imagine it's a longer shot not this here but this goes on for a bit longer and that's the end of it could be interesting I just love that guy, such a weasel now I talked about exercise and here's another one it's not just sitting down but a standing up is also an exercise what I like about this is that if you are given the exercise of the character has to stand up while you can just do a regular stand up or you can do a stand up with a prop but you can also do a stand up with character and I like that he is so impatient and he's like, eh, waves the guy off I love how he waves he uses this one thing so you can almost imagine your shot would be this without these guys and you have maybe whatever maybe it's a person in the hospital and someone, a nurse maybe the nurse wants to help him and he just waves him off or her and it's something that just adds one more thing in terms of character so it's not just body mechanics it's also, this is what the character feels that's his character here in terms of being kind of rude and then maybe you can have a funny reaction of how this character stops but I like this it's a simple thing it's not huge so if you do have a sit up assignment that could just be something that you want to add to give this a bit more flavor and you can see that the cane is a little wobble there I mean, obviously it's old but anyway, I thought this cracked me up when I saw it and it made me think of an exercise right away because a stand up is an exercise that you could attempt speaking of gestures I love this here the soldier tells him that he is waiting for him I don't know why I'm drawing all this but I like to draw so I'll love this here again, as you can tell in the especially if you watch my channel I'm a massive fan of long judging looks where you are confident enough in your shot that you take the time for character to just wait and look and judge and stare and also what's cool is this ah, I love this he doesn't say get up and it's this kind of a this board let me almost start to look away right before it cuts and I love that it's kind of a it's a very simple gesture, right? there's nothing fancy with a wrist flick or anything with the fingers or but it's just that look that pose and just that is such a I don't want to see you but I guess all right, come on, get up I'm ordering you to get up here such a cool move oh, I love this with this working animation this might even be too simple you never know, sometimes stuff in live action works then you put this in your animation it feels like well did you forget to animate the wrist or the fingers you want to add some contrast in there it doesn't always translate but I wanted to show it anyway and also this and you don't really hear what they're saying or whispering so this would be kind of a pantomime thing and I love that, I love that he's already seeing him but he does that extra ah stare, no blink ah, so good this is a long shot I'm including the subtitles so you can read what they're talking about or especially what he is listening to and I love this too in terms of reactions I love that as he listens to and he realizes what he just heard about the running per hour there's no blink, right? there's almost no darting here just kind of listens then he realizes the way, what? and it's that little anticipation where that you start with the eyebrows and then he goes, wait a minute I think this is pretty significant he gets cut off throughout the sequence he gets cut off all the time and it's a simple thing here too with his lips together and the lifting of the head and if you watch my channel you know I'm a massive fan of head accents so you could just leave the character always in this pose but I love that little change through there but the main thing I want to show you is mainly his eyes and the blinking when does he blink? when does he not blink? now he's being told he's being roughly again and being told what he's supposed to do here and you can see that little squint there but not that much blinking and then he realizes, wait what? and you can see again the widening with the eyes and the brows going up and then he just processes what he just heard and you can look at the blinks lots of blinks, lots of processing and wait, wait, wait, what's going on here? and again, think about that as you do your shot, when do you blink? when do you not blink? do you have something where the character just kind of listens and he's not blinking that makes him very concentrated or maybe kind of spaced out and actually not really listening or something where like, wait did I just hear this? oh, I got to process what I just heard and then he got more blinks like that that could be something that's nervous or something where there's just so much going on that he just heard that he has to take a second before he answers lots of good stuff and the funny thing is if you have a two character audio maybe you wanna be fancy with your audio editing but maybe the original shot is two characters talking but you eliminate one and whenever that character talks you put an audio filter on it so it sounds like he's on the phone or she and then you can concentrate on just one character on the phone listening to the other character and it's all about listening, reacting and having fun just with those moments of when do I blink, when do I not blink when they're putting eye darts do I have a bigger reaction do I move my body with a reaction it's even like something like this that I love so again, if you do have a two character dialogue you don't have to have both characters in the scene you can actually have none of the audio performed on screen it's one character listening to two characters so you have this constant back and forth of who I'm listening to or what I showed before where one character is blurry it's all about the character listening and reacting so this could be something where like I said the foreground is blurry but you can do some sort of lip sync and it's gonna add some balance to the composition you wanna do a character shot that way or like the last thing that I looked at where you take one audio and you tweak it it sounds like it's always on the phone or maybe behind the wall and then you just have a character listening and then do the lip sync and reacting and then that constant back and forth could be really interesting so you don't have to stick to if you hear two voices to portray and animate two characters there you go, that's it, episode one I will hopefully see you next week for episode two and so on because there's so much to talk about so much to show next week, lots of stuff with props but anyway, I hope you're gonna watch the show and if you have, let me know in the comments let me know what you liked or did not like about the show and if you watch this until the very end as always, I appreciate it you know, I am very appreciative of the time that you take to watch this and if you like this, you can give us a like also, if you think that all that stuff is interesting and you wanna use that in your shots you can sign up for my workshops where we can talk about that stuff and we can work together on your shots where we can implement those acting choices and take your shots to the next level if you want to, my sign ups are always open for my workshops and that is it if you don't wanna miss all that stuff that I'm posting then don't forget to subscribe hit that bell button for all notifications if you want to get notified about all my uploads because I do upload almost every day and that is it if you're still here, you're a champ and I will see you tomorrow and next week	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ReRiXd_-3A", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }
UCX1QptigcsbBubVqtB1JK7g	How to relate without making it about you	If someone is sharing a personal experience, is it rude to immediately respond with a story of your own? For some it’s a form of relating but for others it can be considered dismissive. Therapists and podcast hosts Vanessa Bennett and Dené Logan relate to opposite sides of the debate and share ways to show support without redirecting the conversation. Free Therapy is a new series that wants to answer questions, demystify therapy, and give everyone the tools they need to be their best self, friend, partner, and family member. - ATTN: is a media company that breaks down important societal topics and conversations into digestible, entertaining videos and series across all platforms.

I feel like all of us can relate to being on one side of this debate or the other. When someone tells me something that happened to them, I often respond with a story of something I've experienced. It's how I feel connected to people, but other people seem to think it's self-centered. Who is right here? There are certain people in my life I just don't go to for certain things because I have had that experience of feeling like everything is just like right back to you. And you know, one of my favorite phrases is do not go to the hardware store looking for peanut butter. It doesn't live there. So that's your responsibility to say like, that's not the friend I go to for that kind of support. I might have a different kind of relationship with them, but in this friendship, we do something different and that's okay. That doesn't mean that's a bad person. It's funny that we're getting this question because I was just watching a video and this content creator is also a therapist was talking about exactly this, about how when you respond to somebody's story with a story of your own, it's considered rude or self-centered. And I was curious because I do this. I had an ex call me a one upper and I never really understood like what the problem was. So in the comments section, I was super curious and there was all of this back and forth that was going on about neurodivergent people and how they show up in this specific way versus neurotypical people. So what is neurodivergent or neurotypical? Neurodivergent isn't actually a medical term, but it is a term that we use to describe the brains of people who might work slightly different than a typical brain. So they might have different struggles, but they also have different strengths. Now, you know that I have done a lot of inner inquiry and I've been on kind of a journey recently where I've started realizing that I actually do have a lot of traits that people with neurodivergence do. I was really curious about this debate that was going on. They were saying that for neurodivergent people, doing that thing where, oh, you had this experience, let me tell you about my experience is actually a way of relating. And then neurotypical people actually find it very dismissive of them, right? If they're the storyteller. What I think often happens in the case of someone, quote, one upping another person is something positive. So say I got a new job and I was like super excited to tell you about it and you're like, well, I got a new job too. I got something that happened for me that's good too. It's like, okay, well, amazing, but that also feels really dismissive of my thing. And so I feel like that's a little bit where I think it can be difficult to navigate how to speak to that in that context, because I can see where that would be alienating to the neurodivergent person in the way that you're describing it because that person might tell themselves the story. It's always about you. Anything that happens for me, you immediately bring it back to you and make it about your thing where from what you're saying, that's not what the person is attempting to do. They're attempting to connect. But if it's not something that you're empathizing with from like a support space but like a space of I'm just like you, the same thing happened that can feel really like, well, this was my thing and we just made it about you all of a sudden. How'd that happen? You know what I mean? I mean, I don't know. You and I seem to get along really well and I know I have a tendency to do that. So how does that, I guess, land for you? I don't necessarily experience you that way. I think it also has to do with the intention underneath it. There is the difference between speaking to a similar experience when I'm talking about something that's been challenging for me versus something that feels like a celebration that I want you to celebrate with me. I feel like you're like my biggest fan when something good happens. So I don't know. Can you think of a time when you've won up to me that I'm not thinking of and I just can't remember? I don't know. Maybe I just don't experience you that way. No, you're right. I think there is something about attention. I think I have gotten to the place of a practice where I still validate first. And then in a moment of connection, I might say, here's a way that I've struggled, but I don't do it without first saying, this is really hard. I see you struggling and all those validation words.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5R3so8f4Ggk", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

It's a Fourier-Vire relation, essentially. So of course we have this description for Gaussian states. When principle we already have a bridge to the Hilbert space. I didn't really show it, but in order to get some of these results, like evaluate the covariances, you need to go to the Fock basis, which is already in the Hilbert space. But the most sophisticated, I would say, and powerful bridge between Hilbert space and by the way, you always need to go into the, even though Gaussian dynamics may be trivial, this is sometimes a point that is raised against these sort of continuous variable problems, right? Because people in the sort of a field theoretical tradition, they call this theory is quasi-free. They call them quasi-free because of the normal modic compositions that I showed, which is you can always diagonalize these Hamiltonians and solve the dynamics. That's true, but that's not the point. I mean, solving a problem in quantum information such as typically is a state entangled or not. It's not equivalent to solving some dynamics, so that objection is that it's unfounded, essentially. So these problems are still difficult, as we're going to see. And whenever you want to face those problems, you have to go into the Hilbert space. So one way to go into the Hilbert space is the Fox space that we saw, but a very powerful way is the Fourier vial, which is essentially the characteristic function. And by which I mean, essentially, that displacement operators that we saw already form a basis in the form of an orthonormal basis or a complete set with respect to the Hilbert Schmidt product. And the consequence, I'm going to state this only for a single mode, because stating it with many modes will be unwieldy and unnecessary at this stage. But what I mean is I can write any row, any state. Let's talk about a state. It could be any bounded operator, but as an integral of a C2 of the alpha. Let me just be sure I use the right, the same convention. Well, I'm not. So D minus alpha trace the alpha row. This pi normalizes this convention and where D alpha is the displacement operator, but written in terms of complex variables with ladder operators as a basis of operators. That would be this. You're familiar with this, I think, because you've seen our coherent states and all in the day before yesterday. But this is the same as what we wrote before with XMP and that omega. This product corresponds to coupling XMPs through the omega matrix. Check it out. Like, upon this identification. Yeah, this is alpha is X plus IP over square root of two. And then you get the same and A dagger and A are the ladder operators. Okay, I don't want to go into these details, but essentially what this statement say, what this statement is, is that you can expand a row in the basis of D alphas. Yeah, I know that mathematically this this this statement is lightly questionable, but you know, allow me the freedom to be a base lobby. And that's what I call Fourier vile. And this in fact is that's the characteristic function. There's a symmetrically ordered characteristic function of of the state row. Yeah So then if we Yeah, if we Fourier transform this, we take the complex Fourier transform, you get the Bigner function. And we already talked about that. I don't want to get into this. But as you know, there's a number of these quasi-probability functions, these phase space representations. And another one is the P function. And did you, are you familiar with the P function so I get a sense of what the audience knows. You don't know about the P function. Okay, cool. So let me let me get a bit more specific. I'm not going to show this relationship, how to prove it, because that will be a bit lengthy. But I'm going to give you one bit, which is this is based on a very interesting representation of the projection on the vacuum. This is equivalent to this, to an equation that we're going to need later. And which is proven in the notes. Oh, why am I, no, no, C2, no, C, not C2, C, so minus or plus is the same. Yeah, so I just mentioned that and this is proven in the notes. Yeah, so that's how you derive this. And use the fact that essentially the set of coherent states is an over-complete set. You can resolve the identity through it. Let me just mention another important equality, which is the identity operator in the Hilbert space, at the Hilbert space level is 1 over pi alpha, alpha. Let's create alpha. Whereas alpha is a coherent state, so it's the alpha upon the vacuum. Okay, so so that's a resume of quantum optics in a sense and and this is the, I think this is the most cultural of all the, it's something that all physicists should know, I think. If I had to pick one bit of quantum optics that everyone should know, it's not a Wigner function and all that, because that's just derivative and it's an elaboration, fine. But this is the most important bit and it's the one that bridges really between Hilbert space and the phase space description through this characteristic function, right? So you can prove that all the, so if we put the Gaussian definition that we have before, this is explicitly done in the notes, though it's a bit pedantic, but you get you get the following. So the big, the characteristic function of a Gaussian state, chi alpha, this is something, so it's it to the, no, no, no. Chi, let me go back now to my variables there where I remember formula. Hopefully. It should be this. You always come with an omega because of the way this canonic, this commutation relations work. And that's sigma and then you multiply times i are transposed, omega transposed, I think, well, hopefully. This should be up to a phase that. So that's the first moment of the state. And they act as a phase on the characteristic function. And this is the covalence matrix. So this is a characteristic function of a Gaussian states. And this will relate between our phase space description given by sigma and R and the Hilbert space operator through this. Okay, if I plug this one in there, I get the expression of another alternative expression of a Gaussian state. So this relates to standard quantum optical descriptions. What is it? Oh, yeah. And then if you take the Fourier transform of this, you get the sigma will go sigma to the minus one, obviously, like for any Gaussian function. And this phase will become a shift. That's what happens. Yeah, and then you get the vignette function, which is really, you know, for one mode is a Gaussian blob centered in R with some shape that is determined by sigma. Yeah. And then the grades imagine a Gaussian blob. Okay. And you have this phase space, which is given by X and P or alpha through that equation. Okay, so that's very, very briefly concise summary of all this and but I want to then go to the peer representation a little bit slightly more specifically. So you can define other characteristic functions and in particular you can define chi minus one alpha as same thing, the trace of the alpha row times this. Okay, so as you notice, we're making things slightly more difficult. Because this will be, so when you Fourier transform this, because we're making it narrower, we're taking the risk. Okay, this will be worse behaved than the big, so once we Fourier transform this, then it might be, it might behave worse than the vignette function, which is the Fourier transform of that. Okay, because we make it tighter as a distribution. I'll come back to this point because it has a relevance for that entanglement even for of these systems. It's okay. It's kind of an interesting side remark, but it was very instrumental too. And then the peer representation is the Fourier transform of that. So I think, how do I usually, yeah, I think I normally, this is normalized that way without the square root, but with a pi there. And then the square beta it's e to the alpha beta star minus alpha star beta of chi minus one beta. Okay, and the peer representation as a very interesting and this was, well this line was almost worth, not alone, but it was instrumental to get in a Nobel Prize for Glaube, right? So this is the renowned Glaube-Südarsson representation, which is that rho equals simply this. That's some really freakish equation that, so they're so over-complete. Coherent states are so far-reaching that you can even express any state as a mixture in a sense of diagonal of projectors on Gaussians, on coherent states. What's the catch? Some of you will know what. There's a problem, of course, in what I just said. That P alpha is usually not even a function, right? It's something nasty. Not only negative, but like could be derivative of delta functions, some distribution, but not a function. Yeah? So it can still be defined consistently that way. And let me mention how to prove this, because I want to, this is really interesting that, so if you add a D alpha there and there, yeah? We will get a D alpha there, and a D minus alpha there. D minus alpha is the same as D alpha, that guy. That unitary, so. And so this equals then projector on alpha. This will just, this will shift this operator by alpha minus alpha, so by zero, but will then give a phase. It should be familiar with this, that if I combine two shift operators, I get the operator, which is the sum of the shifts times some phase. That phase embodies the canonical commutation relations. Yeah? In this case, that phase sort of reads this way. So, so if I write down what I have on the right hand side there to square alpha, alpha, alpha, P alpha. This is an interesting proof, so I want to show it explicitly. This will be one over pi C, D squared alpha, and then I do the other integral in, I don't know, say gamma, there's a P alpha, which is this one, but the the projector on alpha, I want to write it with this integral, and it's, yeah, into the minus, and then I've got the phase, which is alpha, gamma star, minus alpha star, gamma. The phase is the effect of these two, and this is gamma. Why do I have minus gamma there? Oh, it's the same. I can choose both plus and minus there, because it's phase invariant, that statement, so. And then, and then I've got, ah, yes, this is really nice, in fact. Now, this, yeah, so, ah, yeah, so this integral will give me the counter, so I have, I end up with the characteristic function with this, because I'm counter Fourier transforming the P, and then multiplying by that. Yeah, but think about it. This is, because we got P by Fourier transforming that. Yeah. So then, that's why this works. So the integral in alpha is, ah, eaten up, and I get my chi, why is it chi, oh, maybe I should have called it minus one. Ah, I see why I was an idiot. So, yeah, I've been an idiot. That's pretty bad. Okay, so that's why this, because I started to question myself because of this minus, and now it all works. So, and this, I said something really stupid before, which is, of course I make myself more, I make myself more trouble if I multiply this by something divergent like this exponential. Yeah. Okay, so, sorry about that. So that's why this P is less regular. And whereas if I put the minus, you get the cure presentation, which is more regular, my bad. But fortunately, I went through this and then I found out about my mistakes. And just let me just be sure I learned this. Yes, chi one, now this is a gamma, and it to the minus squared. Ah, yes. And this is d minus, which is one over pi integral over c of this squared gamma. Fantastic, chi zero gamma. We counter food and transform this and get chi one times that. But chi one times c to the minus alpha squared is chi zero. And chi zero goes there. Now what's this? That's the integral of chi zero times this, the bases. Yes. By using the Fourier-Weier relation, which is the first thing I wrote, this is raw, which is exactly what we were set out, we set out to prove, okay. So this is how you prove this celebrated representation. Why am I making all this fuss about this? The reason is that, yeah, I was hoping this would be a bit more obvious to see, but like never mind. So no, actually it is. It is quite clear. Now in going from alpha to this x functions, you get a factor two because of this square root. Trust me, try it out. And then you see that essentially what this becomes, this factor there becomes e to the r t r over four, which is also equal. So this is equal really. I mean for a single mode, but it doesn't really matter. Omega t, omega one quota r. Now, so for the p function, for the p function of a Gaussian state to be well defined, well, to be well behaved. And we'll see what that means. And by well behaved, I mean not worse behaved than a delta function. It must be sigma greater equal than the identity. Why? Because see in order to get the chi one, I need to multiply this by one quote this factor. Yeah. So the quadratic part would be essentially if I want chi one, I need to simply put sigma minus one identity there as a matrix. Yeah. And in order to be able to then transform Fourier transform this properly, I want all the eigenvalues of this to be positive. And if they are zero, you get some delta functions. But if they are worse, then you can't define a proper function like that. So you can define this, but it won't be a function or a delta function. It would be like some other distribution. Okay. So at this stage, this will not tell you much, but we'll see why this is very important to us. Yeah. That's the one result I wanted to go through. And it's also useful you get some manipulation of these p functions. And after all, a collagen quantum optics. So now we can go on to discuss the entanglement of Gaussian states. And so first off, what is an entangled state? You probably know it, but you know, this has contained, let me repeat it. So, so row is separable if and only if. So a state of a composite system with Hilbert space A and Hilbert space B is separable if and only if you can write it down as a convex combination, probabilistic mixture of product states. These are all the states that can be, sorry, A, J. These are the states that can be formed from uncorrelated states through local operation and classical communication. Yeah. Because the hypothetical Alice will sample this distribution. And then when she gets a J, calls up Bob and instructs him to create the state row BJ, whilst she creates the state row AJ entirely locally. So that's how you do it. That's how you correlate two coins through this ignorance. Okay? And row is entangled. So you probably will know this, but if and only if is not, row is not separable. So then, okay, there are many tests to check entanglement. The whole extent of the study would be beyond the scope of this lecture, but I want just to mention one test, which is PPT, Positivity of the Partial Transposition, which is that if row is separable, and can the FOB be written that way, then row tilde will stand for partial transposition, which means we transpose only in one of the two Hilbert spaces. Which one is irrelevant? Why is it, why is it that each one, which one is it? Well, I'll come to that later. But that will be transposed in this. And of course, if you transpose the whole state, it's still a state. It's still positive specifically. And so therefore it'd be true that this is greater or equal than zero. So it's a positive semi-definite operator. So this is a necessity condition for separability. And it turns out to be therefore, because of the mutually exclusive definition of the two notions, nature of the notion, it's also sufficient for, its violation is sufficient for entanglement. So therefore if row tilde is not positive semi-definite, it has one negative eigenvalue, then row is entangled. Yeah? So then, and this criteria is only sufficient in general. It's only necessary for separability that is sufficient in general for entanglement is not necessary and sufficient. There are PPT entangled states which are called bound entangled, because they cannot be distilled. But that's more like quantum information theory really. So here to this extent, let me just say this is a test to check that whether this is entangled or not. And it turns out that for the most iconic type of continuous variable entanglement, which is a two-mode Gaussian state, that's what you have in the lab more often than not. Although now in optical comms they've got these like billions of entangled modes, and so the, which would escape this criterion. But basically in all the early days and most of the situation that we're still interested in now. For instance, if you want to check whether the light mode of an optimal mechanical cavity is entangled with a single mechanical mode, that's still a, that's still a two-mode Gaussian state perhaps. And you can still check it's, it's entanglement through the covariance matrix. And it turns out that this condition, which is what we're gonna see now, is not only necessary, but also, it's not only sufficient, but also necessary for Gaussian entanglement of two modes. That's no longer true for, it's still true for one versus any number of modes. It's still true if you have modes which are bi-symmetric, which means that they are symmetric if you exchange modes within the same partitions. But it's no longer true in general for, for any generic Gaussian states. So of many modes, yeah? M plus M modes. But for two modes, this is, this turned out to be necessary and sufficient. Like for two qubits or for a qubit times a Q-trip. In finite dimensions. So, and that's what we, we set out to prove. And okay, so the first thing I want to prove is, it's first a sufficient condition for separability. And it's very general. Which is, is it true only for Gaussians, this one? Yeah. Yeah, I think so. That's it. And then, Gaussian state with the, with the, with the covariance matrix which is greater than the identity is always separable. And why? Because we have it already on the white board. On the black board. Yeah? Because of this reason. Because then P, look at what, what would happen. So this would be the characteristic function. And it would be a well-defined Gaussian. Because we just need to, to, sorry, it's, it's Fourier transform that goes there. Sorry about the sort of mix up in notation here. This is complex notation. These are just real, but it's just, so that I don't write wrong formula. But because if sigma minus one is, is that way, and most you can get a delta function which, which is obviously the P function of a coherent state. Yeah? But a projector on a coherent state, see? But this will be well behaved. And this means that in the multi-mode case, you get a mixture of product states. A well-defined positive Gaussian mixture of, of tensile products of coherent states. Yeah? I didn't write the multi-mode case explicitly, but you can see that this all carries on over. And the reason why everything carries over very simply from the single-mode case is that all these vial operators are tensile products over different spaces. They don't let modes talk to each other. Okay? So it's all a direct sum. So the P representation give immediately these decomposition. So the state must be positive, must be separable. Right? So that's the first state. And besides being instrumental to what follows, this, this statement, yes, between any mode, any mode, any mode within this partition, you split this between any partition of modes, you always end up, which brings me to the underlying truth which, which runs quite deep is that you always need squeezing to have continuous variable entanglement. By squeezing, I mean an eigenvalue of this smaller than the, than one. That's a very nice and powerful statement though. It's very simple. I mean, it's got like far reaching implications, no squeezing, no entanglement ever in continuous variables for Gaussians because if you truncate the space and do things like infinite dimensions, you can get different effects that would not abide by this. But okay. So, cool. So this is the first thing. Let me, let me do everything quite in detail now because the second part is that let's now, this is for any mode, for any number of modes. Let's focus, let's now consider two mode states. As we saw in the previous lectures, we can disregard the first moments as far as entanglement is concerned quite safely because they can be adjusted by LOCC as we like. So, let's just consider two mode states and then we call sigma which is where we encode all the information about the state as sigma A, sigma B, and sigma AB. So we, sigma A is the two times two covariance matrix of mode A and this is the two times two covariance matrix of mode B and, and, and this is where the correlations are. Yeah. And the first remark is that you can always reduce it. There is always a set of local operations that leads this to the standard form through symplectic LOCC, let's call them. I mean, there's no classical communication need. It's just LOBA, which they're going to, and the standard form is also called Simon normal standard form and this, this expression here, c plus a minus. So why, how do we do this? Well, so first off, you have local operation based on the, on the normal mode decomposition for a single mode state. You can always reduce this to Williamson. That's also the normal mode form is also called Williamson form because this was, that's because in the 30s, these things were still being studied to some extent in the third, quite late, considering, you know, how fundamental this stuff is just quadratic Hamiltonians that would appear in classical mechanics. But the trick was that it's quite difficult to classify everything you can do through symplectic operations on any metrics that is not strictly positive. The strictly positive case that I discussed is the simple one. There's a very well known and notorious appendix to Arnold, the classical mechanics books were all book where all these, there's also mistake in the appendix, but all these normal forms are described and that was Williamson theorem. Williamson was interested in all the pathological cases that we don't care about at this stage. So that's called Williamson theorem in the literature often, although Williamson theory is about the difficult cases that are not just this. But anyway, through bi-virtual Williamson theorem, this sigma a and sigma b can be reduced to normal form through local symplectic and now see these local, these normal forms are invariant under rotations, under local rotations which are also symplectic. They are the phase plates that we saw before. And then through those, you can apply one on the left and the different one on the right of the off diagonal block and do it singular value decomposition that leads it to diagonal form regardless of what this is. And you can even, you have enough freedom in these orthogonals that you can choose C plus to be greater or equal than C minus. Yeah? Okay, so this is, it's always true that you can apply local operation and classical communications to achieve this normal form with all these zeros and four parameters which are relevant. And those are the four parameters that are invariant under global and local symplectics. Okay? So then another lemma, it's state with determinant of sigma a b greater or equal than zero, then rho is separable. And this is a bit technical and I don't want to get into that because what you do is you show that if the determinant of sigma a b is greater than zero, that is if C plus and C minus have the same sign, you can always define a set of operations that you can do local squeezing and global beam splitters that leads to a state with sigma greater than one. And then it must be separable. The details are irrelevant here. I mean, again, they're all spelled set out and spelled out quite, fleshed out quite in detail in the, in the notes, but I don't want to get into that. So that's an important lemma that we have. And now we're ready to go for the jugular, which is find the, establish that this condition, the, the, the PPT is necessary and sufficient for such, for, for Gaussian states that we do it this way. Well, we need some few more lines of preparation. So the first one is that there's a quantity. So, okay. So what is PPT? PPT is an expression about the positivity of the states, right? But if you remember, we had another, other ways of expressing, well, we had a Gaussian or phase space way of expressing this positivity. Yeah? Which was sigma plus i omega with the equal then zero, the Eisenberg principle. Yeah? So one ingredient that we need is this and its consequences. Yeah? And among which are the fact that all the simplistic eigenvalues, these are the same. All the simplistic eigenvalues must be greater than one. Not the orthogonal eigenvalues, eh? Those can be smaller than one and hence violate these and have some entanglement. But the simplistic eigenvalues must always be greater than one. They're one for pure states, like the vacuum. And, um, but this can be expressed also in another way, which we're going to do now. How do we see this, that this is the best way to? Yes. So it must be able to express this in terms of all the quantities that are invariant under symplatic operations, because, you know, you can apply a symplatic there, a symplatic there, and, and this will disappear. So this quantity must only depend on, on symplatically invariant quantities. And there, for an n-mode Gaussian states, there are n independent symplatically invariants, which correspond to the n-symplatic eigenvalues. Okay? Specifically for a two-mode state, there is one, it's very simple, it's just the determinant of sigma. I'm mentioning this because there are several problems where it's convenient to, to apply this, to, to use these invariants and to utilize them. So one is two-mode, eh? Only for two modes. One is the determinant, which is always an invariant, because symplatic, uh, because symplatic operations, by definition, because they have to satisfy this, right? So by Binet theorem, there must be invertible because they're a matrix group. So they cannot have determinant zero. And by Binet theorem, obviously they must have determinant either one or minus one. And it turns out they always have determinant plus one, by the way. But, so they cannot change the determinant of sigma acting by congruence. So this must be an invariant. And the other invariant is a bit more exotic. But it's just, you can determine all the invariants by taking the characteristic equation that lets you find the symplatic eigenvalues. I couldn't go into that. And, and constructing the characteristic polynomial. This will be all the invariants, the coefficients of the polynomials. But, um, but one of them is very simple to write down. And it's this one. It's this quantity. And it's kind of interesting to see how that, that turns out to be an invariant. Let me see how much time, yeah. Let me do that because I don't want to. So the reason why this is a, a symplatic invariant can be seen by looking at the standard form. So any state can be brought into standard form. So this must be through local operation, right? So this must be invariants because local symplatic operation are still symplatic operations. So, and then, so the invariants must be, the global invariants must be, uh, expressible in terms of these four quantities. And so if you look at delta, that would be, uh, you know, a squared plus b squared plus 2c plus c minus, which turns out to be if you regroup this as, if you take these two blocks, so reorganize this, this, this vectors as this squares. So shift the space and call this the x block. And the circles are the p block. That would just be trace the Hilbert Schmidt product between sigma x and sigma p. Yeah. And then you can show that you can bring any metrics from the standard form to, uh, from this standard form to the normal form by operations that do not change this. And this proves that delta is an invariant. And it must be determined by the, by the, the eigenvalues. And the reason is that the beam splitter that we saw, that we wrote before will just be rotations among this. And if you mix this beam splitter and local squeezers, you can do, you can bring this state into, into standard form, into normal form, into a state which is new one, new one, new two, new two. But I don't want to. I think, I think it's a good place. So let me just clarify what we established, a few things. So we have the PPT, the violation of PPT, our positivity of the partial transpose is a sufficient condition for entanglement in general. So for Gaussian states too. And then we have a couple of lemons, one that say, well, the most important one is to say is that e in a two-mode Gaussian state, if the determinant of sigma a b is greater or equal than zero, then rho is separable. And then we have a way to express positivity, which is this, oh, which then can be re-expressed in terms of the simplistic invariants as, as this is this equation, that sigma minus delta plus one greater or equal than zero. And then we have this final statement that the deter, because of the Eisenberg principle, I can't really, well, it's not difficult to show this, but you just need to express this delta, the fact that that sigma is the product of the simplistic eigenvalues, squared, and this is just a sum. And then this must be greater or equal than one. If you put everything together, you find this relationship. Yeah, so we have that this must always be true. We identify two invariants, and this must always be true for any covariance metrics to be physical. And then I'll come back and tell you how to describe partial transposition in phase space, and we put everything together and find a criteria and show that this is necessary and sufficient for two-mode Gaussian states, which solve that problem. And I think that's it for this lecture. We still, we have one lecture in the afternoon, right? Yeah, cool. Thanks.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5r9NYxZhMlc", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Today I'm going to walk you through my simple morning routine. Today was a work day for me, so I got up earlier than usual. This morning I got up at 4.15 a.m. to get ready and ride over to the beach to watch the sunrise. It takes me about 30 minutes to ride my bike, so I like to give myself plenty of time to get to the beach before the sun starts to rise over the horizon. And I enjoy the ride as it helps to wake me up in the mornings. Plus, it's really quiet and peaceful at this hour, as there's barely anyone awake, so I love this time of morning. If I'm not watching the sunrise in the morning, I'll usually get up at around 7 a.m. and start my day then. I arrived at the beach at 5 a.m., parked my bike, and then headed down towards the sea, finding a comfy spot to place my towel down and sit and watch the beautiful sunrise. We'd been having quite cloudy days before this, so this morning's sunrise was just spectacular. And the day proved to be so sunny and warm, it was just perfect weather for sunrise watching. The sun rose over the horizon at about 5.47 a.m. on this particular day, and as soon as the rays of sunlight hit my face, I could feel my whole body start to warm up, and I felt new energy coursing through my body. I stayed to watch the sunrise up into the sky to about 6 a.m., then packed up, got back on my bike, and rode to my favorite cafe nearby to order a dairy-free hot chocolate on almond milk. To take away in my glass reusable cup. I then walked back to the beach and found a sunny spot on the sand to sit and have my hot chocolate while I listened to the waves rolling in and watched the surfers out at sea catching some waves. After my hot chocolate, I read a book for a while and soaked up more of the morning sun on my skin, which was helping to defrost my cold body from the chilly morning we had. After about an hour or so, I packed up my things and went over to the nearest shower to wash out my reusable cup. If there aren't any showers nearby, I'll wash my reusables in the ocean instead, just to give them a quick rinse before I clean them properly at home. I then rode the 30 minutes back home and by now the day was starting to warm up, so when I arrived back home, I was really really hot, so I quickly changed into a summery dress and then made my liver cleansing juice. Just to help detoxify and cleanse my liver in the mornings, as I found out from my naturopath that my liver is prone to blocking regularly. So this just helps to flush it out and then I follow up with a peppermint tea 15 minutes later to further flush out my liver and give it a good cleanse. After my tea, I give my teeth a good clean using my homemade all-natural whitening tooth powder, then I start my skincare routine. I first cleanse my skin using my homemade oil cleanser made with olive oil and cast oil, which I massage onto my skin. I leave this cleanser on for 10 minutes or so to allow it to seep deep into my pores. Then I soak a face cloth with hot water and place it over my face to create a steam barrier, which opens up my pores and allows my skin to flush out any impurities trapped inside. I leave the cloth on my face for about a minute or until it's no longer warm, then I gently wash off any remaining oil residue on my skin with the edges of the cloth. Next I apply my homemade ultra-hydrating moisturizer to my face. I only use a pea-sized amount as it's an oil-based moisturizer, so it's much oilier than the standard water-based moisturizers you find at the store and so a little goes a long way with this cream. It's 100% plastic-free, all-natural, vegan, it's made with certified organic ingredients and it's handmade by me. It contains apricot kernel oil, coconut oil, vitamin E oil, shea butter and lavender essential oil. I found it to be the only moisturizer that I've come across that keeps my skin hydrated and silky smooth all day long after just one application. I used to need to apply standard water-based moisturizers at least two times a day and they would soak into my skin too quickly, leaving it dry and flaky within a few hours. This moisturizer is made with a luscious blend of yummy oils and butters that keep skin hydrated and nourished all day long, as the oils take longer for the skin to absorb, so it sits on skin for longer, protecting it from the elements around us like the sun, wind and cold. This moisturizer is now available on my website, simplynaturalnessa.com and I'll also link it below in the description if you'd like to check it out. I'll be releasing an all-natural face cleanser soon too. And that is my simple morning routine living by the seaside. I hope you all enjoy this video, let me know what time you start your mornings. Do you get up at 5am too or do you get up earlier or later? I'd love to know. Thank you so much for watching and thank you for the support and love you share with me as I share my videos with you all. It means so much to me and inspires me to keep going. I'm sending you so much love from here in Australia. I hope you take care and I hope to see you again soon. Bye.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5r69L24yEkk", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

So we can just very quickly look at how it is that we can conduct an investigation to test for the presence of the carbon-carbon double bond in organic molecules. So I hope that what you've been thinking as you've looked at the beginning of this video is, well, the carbon-carbon double bond can actually be identified very easily with the addition of bromine water. Bromine water is a great test substance for unsaturated hydrocarbons. So I'll put that under there for unsaturated hydrocarbons because what will happen with these unsaturated hydrocarbons is they will undergo an addition reaction. Structurally, if we have say for example let's call it pent one in four five one two three There we go. So here's our double bond here and what we're going to be doing is we're going to add bromine water. Now there are a couple of variations on this and it's going to be interesting to see just how how many different options you're going to be expected to understand. But I would assume that one of the simple things that you can do with this is to just look at the way that the bromine is going to add across the double bond. So we've got a bromine on the first carbon and a bromine on the second carbon and then three four five carbons and of course all our hydrogens around and I haven't added all of those in and of course you can certainly do that. And I'm hoping by now that you'll you'll have been understanding that really what we do with our organic compounds is we put in our functional groups, we put in our number of carbons, make sure we locate our functional groups and then we fill up all of our carbons with four bonds in total and anything that isn't already part of the functional groups that we've labeled we just add hydrogens in there. So you can see this is pent one in and with the addition of bromine water in aqueous, it becomes one, two, di-bromo pentane. Now it is possible that we can look at the way that the bromine combines in water. You may see some variations on this where the bromine water actually forms a little complex where the bromine is actually bonded to a hydroxyl group and they can actually add across that double bond as well. And there are occasions where we have seen that that is a variation on this theme. I think it's probably important to have a bit of a chat and class about it and just focus on this more simple version of the addition reaction with bromine water.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rFiy--lXh4", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Your YouTube channel's identity is the foundation upon which all your future success will be built. It's essential to have a clear understanding of your channel's purpose, your target audience, and the unique value you offer. In this chapter, we'll explore the importance of crafting a strong brand identity and how it can help you stand out in the vast sea of YouTube creators. 1.1, defining your channel's purpose and vision. Before you can start creating content, you need to have a clear understanding of your channel's purpose and vision. This will serve as a guiding light for all your future decisions, from the content you create to the audience you seek to attract. Start by asking yourself the following questions. What topics or themes do I want to explore on my channel? What are my long-term goals for my YouTube channel? How do I want my channel to evolve over time? Take the time to reflect on these questions and write down your answers. Keep in mind that your channel's purpose and vision may change as you grow and learn more about your audience, so don't be afraid to revisit and revise your answers as needed. 1.2, identifying your target audience. Understanding your target audience is essential for creating content that resonates with viewers and fosters loyalty. Identifying your target audience involves asking yourself the following questions. Who is my ideal viewer? What are their demographics, age, gender, location, etc. What are their interests and preferences? What types of content do they enjoy watching? Keep in mind that your target audience might not be a homogenous group, but rather, a collection of different segments with varying interests and preferences. As you grow your channel, you may find it helpful to create audience personas, fictional characters that embody the characteristics of your ideal viewers, to help guide your content creation decisions. 1.3, developing a unique value proposition. Your unique value proposition, UVP, is what sets your channel apart from the competition and gives viewers a reason to choose your content over others. To craft a compelling UVP, consider the following questions. What makes my channel different from others in my niche? What unique perspective or expertise can I offer my viewers? What specific needs or problems can my content address for my audience? Once you've identified your UVP, make sure to communicate it clearly and consistently across your channel. This includes incorporating it into your channel banner, video descriptions, and even mentioning it in your videos. 1.4, creating a consistent brand image. A cohesive and consistent brand image helps your channel appear more professional and memorable to viewers. When developing your brand image, consider the following elements. Channel name, choose a name that reflects your channel's purpose, is easy to remember, and has a strong connection to your content. Logo, design a simple yet distinctive logo that can be used across your channel, social media profiles, and any merchandise you may create. Channel banner, your channel banner should be visually appealing, clearly communicate your UVP, and include any relevant information, example, upload schedule, social media handles, etc. Channel trailer, create a short video that introduces new viewers to your channel, showcases your content, and encourages them to subscribe. Additionally, maintain consistency in your video thumbnails, fonts, and color schemes to create a recognizable visual identity for your channel. 1.5 understanding YouTube's guidelines and best practices. As a YouTube creator, it's crucial to familiarize yourself with YouTube's guidelines and best practices to ensure that your channel remains in good standing. This includes understanding YouTube's community guidelines, which outline the types of content that are allowed on the platform, as well as their copyright and fair use policies, which govern the use of copyrighted material in your videos. Additionally, YouTube's Creator Academy offers a wealth of resources to help you navigate the platform, understand its features, and learn best practices for growing your channel. Be sure to take advantage of these resources as you build your YouTube presence. 1.6 setting realistic goals and expectations. Growing a YouTube channel takes time, dedication, and consistent effort. As you embark on this journey, it's essential to set realistic goals and expectations for your channel's growth. Instead of focusing solely on subscriber count or view numbers, consider setting goals related to audience engagement, content quality, and personal growth as a creator. Some examples of realistic goals might include improving audience retention rates, increasing the number of comments and likes on your videos, collaborating with other creators in your niche, learning new video editing techniques or production skills. By setting achievable goals, you'll be able to celebrate milestones along the way and maintain motivation, even when growth may seem slow. 1.7 building a content strategy. A well-crafted content strategy is essential for growing your YouTube channel. It will help you create content that appeals to your target audience, maintain a consistent upload schedule, and ensure that your channel remains focused on its purpose and vision. Start by brainstorming a list of content ideas that align with your channel's purpose and cater to your target audience's interests. Consider various content formats, such as tutorials, vlogs, interviews, and reviews, to keep your channel fresh and engaging. Next, create an editorial calendar to plan your content and maintain a consistent upload schedule. This will not only help you stay organized and accountable, but also signal to viewers that they can expect regular content from your channel. 1.8 investing in quality equipment and software. While it's possible to create engaging YouTube content with minimal equipment, investing in quality gear and software can significantly improve your production value and overall viewer experience. Some essential equipment to consider includes camera, a DSLR or mirrorless camera with good video capabilities will provide the best image quality, but even a smartphone with a high-quality camera can suffice for beginners. Microphone invest in an external microphone to capture clear, crisp audio. Lighting, good lighting is essential for professional looking videos. Consider purchasing a simple lighting kit or making use of natural light. Tripod or stabilizer, a tripod or stabilizer will help you achieve smooth, steady shots. Editing software, choose user-friendly editing software such as Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro or DaVinci Resolve to bring your videos to life. 1.9 learning and improving. As you grow your YouTube channel, it's essential to continually learn and improve your skills as a creator. This might involve attending workshops or online courses, seeking feedback from your audience or experimenting with new content formats and techniques. Embrace a growth mindset and view your channel as an ongoing work in progress. By continually seeking opportunities to learn and improve, you'll be better equipped to adapt to the ever-changing YouTube landscape and keep your content fresh and engaging.

In the following chapters, we'll dive deeper into the specifics of content creation, optimization, audience engagement, and monetization, providing you with the tools and knowledge needed to turn your small channel into a thriving digital empire. Chapter 2. Content is king, mastering the art of engaging video creation. As the saying goes, content is king and nowhere is this truer than on YouTube. In this chapter, we'll explore the essential elements of engaging video content and provide practical tips and techniques for planning, scripting, filming, and editing your videos. By mastering the art of content creation, you'll be well on your way to capturing your audience's attention and turning casual viewers into loyal subscribers. 2.1 Identifying Content Formats and Genres There's no one-size-fits-all formula for creating engaging content on YouTube, as different viewers have different preferences and interests. The key is to identify the content formats and genres that resonate with your target audience and align with your channel's purpose and vision. Some popular content formats and genres on YouTube include tutorials on how to videos, vlogs, video blogs, reviews and unboxings, interviews and Q&As, listicles and top 10s, educational and explainer videos, documentaries and mini-docs, live streams and gaming videos, comedy skits and sketches, travel and adventure videos. Don't be afraid to experiment with different formats and genres, as this can help you identify what works best for your channel and keep your content fresh and engaging. As you explore various content formats, pay close attention to your audience's feedback and YouTube analytics to determine which types of content resonate most with your viewers. 2.2 Planning and Research Before diving into video production, it's essential to plan and research your content thoroughly. This involves identifying your video's main objective, gathering relevant information and organizing your ideas into a cohesive structure. Some practical steps for planning and researching your content include Determine your video's primary goal, example, to entertain, inform, inspire, etc. Conduct keyword research to identify popular search terms related to your video topic. Gather relevant information, facts and data to support your video's main points. Create a rough outline or storyboard to organize your ideas and ensure your video has a clear beginning, middle and end. Identify any visual aids, props or resources needed for your video, example, b-roll footage, graphics, music, etc. By investing time and effort into planning and research, you'll ensure that your content is well-structured, informative, and engaging to your target audience. 2.3 Scripting your videos While some YouTube creators prefer to speak off the cuff, many find it helpful to script their videos in advance. This ensures that your content is clear, concise, and engaging and can help prevent rambling or forgetting important points. When scripting your videos, consider the following tips. Write conversationally, as if you are speaking to a friend or family member. Use short sentences and simple language to ensure your content is easy to understand. Break your script into sections or bullet points to make it easier to follow. Incorporate storytelling techniques to make your content more engaging, example, anecdotes, metaphors, etc. Consider using a teleprompter app or printed notes to help you deliver your script more smoothly. Remember that your script should serve as a guide rather than a rigid script to be red verbatim. Feel free to improvise and adapt your script as needed to maintain a natural and authentic tone. 2.4 Filming techniques for engaging content The way you film your videos can have a significant impact on your audience's viewing experience. By employing effective filming techniques, you can create visually appealing and engaging content that captures your viewer's attention. Consider the following tips when filming your videos. Use the rule of thirds. Divide your frame into a 3x3 grid and position your subject or key elements at the intersection points to create a more visually appealing composition. Maintain proper eye contact. If you're speaking directly to the camera, make sure to maintain eye contact to establish a connection with your viewers. If you're filming someone else, ensure they maintain eye contact with the camera or an off-screen interviewer. Use different camera angles, experiment with various camera angles, example, close ups, wide shots, low angles, high angles, to add visual interest and variety to your content. Utilize b-roll footage, supplement your main footage with b-roll, additional footage that supports your story, to provide context, enhance your storytelling, and keep your viewers engaged. Maintain stable shots, use a tripod, gimbal, or other stabilizing equipment to keep your shots steady and professional looking. Pay attention to lighting, good lighting is essential for creating high-quality videos. Utilize natural light when possible or invest in a simple lighting kit to ensure your subjects are well-lit and visible. Record high-quality audio, as mentioned in chapter 1, invest in a good external microphone to capture clear, crisp audio. Avoid filming in noisy environments and consider using a windscreen or phone cover for your microphone when filming outdoors. Remember that practice makes perfect when it comes to filming techniques. As you gain more experience and learn from your mistakes, your video production skills will continue to improve. 2.5. Editing for impact and engagement. Editing is where the magic happens in video production, as it allows you to transform raw footage into a polished and engaging final product. When editing your videos, consider the following tips to ensure your content is both impactful and engaging. Trim the fat, remove any unnecessary or repetitive footage to keep your video concise and to the point. This will help maintain your viewers' attention and improve audience retention rates. Use jump cuts sparingly, while jump cuts, abrupt transitions between shots, can be used to create a fast-paced and energetic feel. Overusing them can be disorienting to viewers. Strive for a balance between jump cuts and more seamless transitions, such as crossfades and wipes. Incorporate graphics and text, enhance your storytelling and reinforce key points with the use of graphics, text overlays, and lower thirds, text banners that appear at the bottom of the screen. Pay attention to pacing, ensure your video has a natural and engaging flow by varying the pace of your edits. Use faster cuts for high energy sections and slower cuts for more contemplative or emotional moments. Add music and sound effects, use background music and sound effects to create a more immersive and engaging viewing experience. Be sure to choose royalty-free music or obtain the necessary permissions to avoid copyright issues. Color grade your footage, adjust the color in contrast of your footage to create a consistent and visually appealing aesthetic. Many editing software programs offer built-in color grading tools or presets to make this process more accessible. Remember that editing is both an art and a skill that takes time and practice to master. As you gain experience and experiment with different editing techniques, your ability to create engaging and impactful content will continue to grow. 2.6 Prioritizing Audience Retention Audience retention is a critical metric on YouTube, as it measures the percentage of a video that viewers watch before clicking away. Videos with high audience retention rates are more likely to be recommended by YouTube's algorithm, leading to increased visibility and growth for your channel. To optimize your audience retention, consider the following tips. Hook your viewers early, capture your viewers' attention within the first few seconds of your video by starting with a compelling hook, such as an intriguing question, a bold statement, or a captivating visual.

Chapter 3. YouTube Optimization, Harnessing the Power of the Algorithm In addition to creating engaging content, it's essential to optimize your videos for YouTube's algorithm to maximize your channel's visibility and growth potential. In this chapter, we'll explore the key factors that influence YouTube's algorithm and provide practical tips for optimizing your videos, metadata, and channel to improve discoverability, audience retention, and viewer engagement. 3.1. Understanding YouTube's Algorithm YouTube's algorithm is a complex system that determines which videos are recommended to users based on a variety of factors, including relevance. The algorithm considers how closely a video matches a user's search query or viewing history. Engagement videos with high levels of engagement, example, likes, comments, shares, are more likely to be recommended by the algorithm. Watch time, the total amount of time users spend watching a video is a crucial factor in determining its algorithmic success. Videos with high watch times are more likely to be promoted by YouTube. Audience retention, as discussed in chapter 2, videos with high audience retention rates, the percentage of a video that viewers watch before clicking away, are favored by the algorithm. Session time, YouTube's algorithm also considers the total amount of time users spend on the platform after watching a particular video. Videos that lead to longer session times are more likely to be promoted. By optimizing your content for these factors, you can improve your chances of being discovered by new viewers and boost your channel's growth. 3.2 video optimization, titles, thumbnails, and descriptions. Optimizing your video metadata, including titles, thumbnails, and descriptions, is crucial for capturing viewers' attention and improving your content's discoverability. Consider the following tips when optimizing your video metadata. Craft compelling titles, your video title should be both descriptive and enticing, clearly conveying the topic of your video while also peaking viewers' curiosity. Use relevant keywords to improve search visibility and consider incorporating numbers or emotionally charged words to create a sense of urgency or intrigue. Create eye-catching thumbnails. Your video thumbnail is the first visual impression viewers have of your content, so make it count. Use high-quality images, bold text, and contrasting colors to create a visually appealing and attention-grabbing thumbnail that accurately represents your video's content. Ensure your thumbnail is clear and readable, even at smaller sizes. Write detailed descriptions, your video description should provide a brief overview of your content and include relevant keywords to improve search visibility. Be sure to include timestamps or chapter markers for longer videos to help viewers navigate your content more easily. In addition, include links to your social media profiles, relevant resources, and any products or services mentioned in your video. 3.3 Harnessing the Power of Tags and Keywords Using relevant tags and keywords in your video metadata is essential for improving your content's discoverability on YouTube. Tags help YouTube's algorithm understand the topic and context of your video, making it more likely to be recommended to users with similar interests. When selecting tags for your videos, consider the following tips. Perform keyword research, use tools like Google's keyword planner, TubeBuddy, or vidIQ to identify popular search terms related to your video's topic. Incorporate these keywords into your tags, titles, and descriptions to improve search visibility. Use a mix of broad and specific tags, include both general tags related to your video's overall theme, example, fitness, cooking, and more specific tags that describe the content in greater detail, example, hit workout, vegan lasagna recipe. Avoid keyword stuffing, while it's important to use relevant keywords in your tags, avoid overloading your metadata with an excessive number of tags, as this can be perceived as spam by YouTube's algorithm. Focus on using a curated selection of high quality, relevant tags that accurately represent your content. 3.4 Optimizing Video Length and Structure While there's no universally ideal video length for YouTube, it's essential to optimize your video's length and structure to maximize audience retention and watch time. Consider the following tips when optimizing your video length and structure. Tailor your video length to your content, while shorter videos can be more accessible and shareable, longer videos tend to have higher watch times, which can improve your chances of being recommended by YouTube's algorithm. Consider the nature of your content and your audience's preferences when determining the ideal video length for your channel. Start strong, as mentioned in chapter 2, capturing your viewer's attention within the first few seconds of your video is crucial for improving audience retention. Begin your videos with a compelling hook, such as a provocative question, a captivating visual, or a brief preview of the content to come. Structure your content, organize your videos into clear sections or chapters to create a sense of flow and make your content more accessible and engaging for viewers. Use visual cues and transitions to signal changes in topic or to break up longer segments of your video. Encourage viewer engagement throughout your video, encourage viewers to interact with your content by asking questions, soliciting feedback, or prompting them to like, comment, or subscribe. This can help boost engagement metrics and improve your video's algorithmic performance. 3.5 channel optimization, branding, playlists, and channel layout.

UCtqzN78IJnYSP8fppbBv-CQ	Maharishikaa \| What is Freedom? How to find it? - Enlightenment, Reintegration, Fearlessness	Register for the Video Live Satsang with Maharishikaa Preeti: https://swiy.co/65Live What is freedom? Where is it found? Do freedom and ultimate fearlessness lie in the samadhi states? How can one be free from fear? Maharishikaa masterfully breaks down the edifice of old-fashioned spirituality where enlightened masters in states of dissolution of identity were revered. Did these masters actually experience fearlessness? And if they did, was that fearlessness of any use in daily life? If one decides not to take the old spiritual path of striving for enlightenment, but decides for the new spirituality of bending to the Truth Impulse, can one then become free from fear? Many spiritual traditions talk about escaping the cycle of birth and rebirth. Should one be concerned with this on one’s spiritual journey? Does ultimate freedom really lie in getting out of this supposed cycle? Or is there, perhaps, a more simple way to find it… #Maharishikaa #Fearlessness #Reintegration Aaryaa Maharishikaa Preeti Maiyaa, is a revolutionary female mystic who fearlessly dares to demystify spirituality in her unrelenting call to realize Self, and act from Source.

What's your name? Mohit, I attended one of the online sessions. My question is about two things. One is, when you mention about reintegration and the chances of somebody who has been in Nirvikalpa Samadhi or serve in Nirvikalpa Samadhi as you mentioned, it's very rare. And the structure over here, you're saying, is not focusing on that. It is more embodying into an identity and going for Samarpan. My question is, what is the process of integration? And secondly, when you mention about getting fear out of the system, the peak of it is, in a way, Samadhi. It is only when one is totally surrendered to be free from fear. If completely one focuses on being free from fear, the final fear comes of fear of death, how that can be skipped in a spiritual process, if it can be at all. When you move into Samadhi states, the consciousness, the awareness, moves further and further away from the awareness of the body. It's a dissolution of identity. So it starts with the seeker who is seeking enlightenment and seeking Samadhi, moving into a state of meditation where the body is kept in a certain position for long hours of time, which already in itself starts to push the consciousness out. And increasingly the seeker, after enlightenment, feels the dissolution of the contours of the body until at one point there is only a perceiving identity. That would be the Savikalpa Samadhi. There's a perceiving identity. And then comes the Nirvikalpa Samadhi where that perceiving identity dissolves as well. So there is no experience of fear anymore, which is great and fine, but there is also no experience of the body, which means that something else takes charge of the body and that something else is the ahankar. All those spiritual masters that have been looked at as masters because they were enlightened, were actually in a state of complete dissolution of identity, therefore allowing the ego, the ahankar, to take over their systems. Which is why their bodies suffered so enormously? Take the example of Ramana Maharshi, extreme suffering in the body. The example of Ramakrishna Paramahansa, extreme suffering in the body. Ananda Mahima, extreme suffering in the body. And those are three examples from the Indian subcontinent. It is an experiment in the spiritual trajectory. It is an experiment and a lot has been gleaned and understood of the cosmic experience. But if in order to experience a totally fearless state, you have to leave the body to the machinations of the ego, then that fearless state has no meaning because you're not able to function which everyone has to do. Ramana Maharshi had to reintegrate into his body. And when that reintegration happens, fear returns into the system. It is not a conceptual fear that returns. It's not an emotional fear. It is a material fear. It is in the cells of the body. They respond with fear. With time, however, with the deepening processes of integration and with the consciousness pushing deeper and deeper into the very cells of the body, that fear can be eliminated to a large degree. So the future of spirituality will turn away from the Samadhi experience into the materiality of the body. Being present to such an extent and to be so conscious and aware that very little fear can happen in the body. And yet the body is able to function normally without the ego taking over as much as it would if the person is out in the Samadhi experience. You understand what I'm saying? So that's the future. Because going into Samadhi has shown itself to be interesting as an experience but not conducive to living in this world and living in society and embracing the abundance that life itself offers. Because if you want to live in a Samadhi state, then why live in a body at all? And people who want to be in a cosmic experience, they can leave the body and go and be in their cosmic experience. If they are in a body, they must be present, they must be aware, they must be conscious and not idealize those who are not in their bodies. That is the past of spirituality. And how does it fall into place, the narrative of journey of soul taking rebirth and being free from that process, which for a long time has been said to be one of the goals of Andhya Atman, you being free from the rebirth process. How does that fit into this process? Or it is also like it's a bogus pursuit? The freedom is to be experienced here and now. That is the freedom. And that freedom lies in the surrender posture to the soul, to the soul. The more you are in surrender, the more free you are. What happens after death? I don't know. I can't speak about it. Some people say the soul is reborn. There may be some evidence for that. Other people say if you have been good in this life, you get 72 virgins after you pass away. I don't know about the women if they get anything, but the men do. Others say you would be nearer or further away from God. Others say you go to hell. There are different versions of all of this. I don't know because I haven't died. So I don't have that experience. And the freedom that you seek is the freedom from the ego. That is the freedom to seek because that brings you to this moment and you are in a state of joy. If you are yearning for something, you are already not in this moment. And so it's not living its life. It's a pursuit. It's not being. So if you just are in this moment, you don't have to pursue anything. True, but still when you talk about sanatana dharma, that has been the narrative for centuries. And also when you're saying living moment to moment, it is you're living less from your ego trying to become something as being yourself. You say there's no pursuit, but this narrative, I will call it narrative right now because nobody here has experienced it is false human to say because it is the de facto for a large part of the pursuit of Indian spirituality or adhyatma. Also when somebody is free from the body, when you say in Nirvikalpa Samadhi, what is left there? When somebody takes this process, two lines meet at the same point or no? When you go to a teacher, a spiritual master or guru, they will speak to you from their experience. When you go to an acharya, they will speak to you from the texts. The texts are a series of compilations over millennia different approaches, different ideas, different interpretations and they also have different meanings to different people. When you speak about the dharmic approach, there are hundreds of different dharmic approaches. There is the approach of the believer in death and rebirth. There is the approach of the non-believer at all, even in God. Even that is a dharmic approach. You can't say that the fundamentals of sanatana dharma are describing the idea of the soul's journey and rebirth. That is only one aspect of sanatana dharma that has caught on more than other aspects. But if you ask a spiritual guide, somebody who is guiding you to yourself, to speak about what happens after death, they will be referring to texts, not of their own experience. It has to be a material experience in order to speak about it. They can have visions, but then it's a vision. It is not born of experience. What is important is this moment and your question regarding the being in this moment as also a goal which you are trying to pursue. It's not a goal because when you are in this moment, you are in this moment. It is not something you reach because you are it. It's not a journey. It is. If you take yourself in this very moment, you are sitting here and you are looking at me now, and again now, and again now, and again now, again, and now, and now, and now. This is not a journey. You are connecting with your truth now, and again now. Connect with the master, bend, connect, now, now, now, and now, and now, and now, and again now, and now. It's not a journey. It's this-ness, here-ness, now-ness. And so there's no journey. It's responding to the impulse of the truth. It's a spirituality of the future, being here and now. Nothing to yearn for, nothing to long for, no paradise, nothing, no heaven, no hell, no nothing. It's all now, here.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RMuua0m9Wc", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

This shit was off the charts. We're gonna talk about it right now. I'm Ryan. I'm Dries. I'm Scoot. And this is our review for Spider-Man Homecoming. Don't mess with me, because I will kill you and everybody you love. So Spider-Man Homecoming, Spider-Man's new foray into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It was pretty unreal. What'd you guys think? It was unbelievable. I love Spider-Man. We'll get into that later. What do you think, Scoot? This was excellent. This was a lot of fun. Heaps of humor. I really liked that high school aspect of that. That really kind of shined through. I think what I was really excited about was, Tony Stark didn't have anywhere near as big of a role as the ads kind of made it seem. And I think that I was really kind of nervous going into it. I agree with that. This is very much a Spider-Man film. And yeah, it takes the cake. Either probably the best Spider-Man film they've brought out so far. Shit. I think... That's a big statement. I think Tom Holland was probably the best out of the three. What do you guys reckon, like in Spider-Man? Well, I like Tom and Gwai. I'm a big fan of Tom and Gwai. The first Spider-Man, the second Spider-Man, the second Spider-Man by far is probably my favorite. But this would be second to them. Yeah. While watching the Andrew Garfield films, I quite liked it. The first one I loved, the second one I loved even more in the cinema. It sucked. But then I saw it. I saw it at home and fucking... God damn it, Jamie Foxx. You ruined that movie for me. Yeah, indeed. Neither of them are very good in that movie. No, yeah, yeah. But Garfield is great. Emerson is great. And that aspect is awesome. They should have been making more movies with just those two actors and actors in Emerson and Andrew Garfield. Why? Hello? Because it's the storyline. You should know this. This is my point. Come on, man. You love Spider-Man, but maybe you don't. No, I do. I love Spider-Man. I remember when I was a kid, I used to always ran out this book from the library. It was this like old comic hardback of Spider-Man. How to read. Yeah. No, no, no, no. No, I got a good story with this one. Anyway, I was only ever going to give it back when I turned into Spider-Man. So as a kid, you know, you're waiting, you're waiting. Anyway, I ended up being able to shoot webs from a certain spot, but I still kept the book anyway. So I guess I'm not Spider-Man. But I can shoot webs. I don't want to know that. That's too much information. What the hell? My favorite part about this whole movie was the relationship... The web shooting! No, it was the relationships in high school. Yeah. It was so John Husey, I thought. And that's what they're aiming for, right? Yeah, yeah, absolutely. And there was like splatterings of 80s throughout it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There was Bula. Yeah, that was great. The running scene. Yeah, yeah, that was unreal. Yeah. It was very comical aspect. It was really funny. But one of the main things I thought was, you know, for Spider-Man movie, there was so much high school stuff. It was over 60% high school. And then, you know, 20% to 30% Spider-Man and 10% Stark and Avengers. So for me, that was unreal. Like, I loved seeing a Spider-Man movie. There wasn't so much Spider-Man. We've seen that shit. How many times already? Let's get something different. And this was. I feel like the other film series, whatever we call them now, was like, oh yeah, we're in high school, but they've been there for like five minutes. And like when they're already 40 years old actors, like Tim McGuire, it just doesn't seem like legit. I'm in high school. Want to go to the prom? I think the love interest between, you know, Peter Parker and Liz was good. Yeah, I agree. But I liked it how he just knew his place and at the end he's just like, look, you know, I can't have a relationship with her. I'm just going to pull away and be who I have to be. Which is Spider-Man. Yeah, it's very Spider-Man. But the sequence where he's walked through the hall pass, that was all the feels, man. Yeah, it was great. Yeah, yeah. When Fuzzy's came back. Yes, very much so. What did you guys think of my Keaton? Keaton's amazing. He's great. He's really a menacing. I think he, I know you guys are saying Tom Holland might be the best Spider-Man, but I think he has been the best Spider-Man villain to date by far. He was the most threatening I found. And that surprised me because I didn't expect that out of him at all. And he had a reason to be a villain. That's one thing I absolutely loved. Trying to make money. I don't give a fuck what you're a villain. You have no reason to be. But like, he was trying to protect his family and give him money and stuff. And that aspect of the movie I really loved. I was really happy with all the integrations they did because it doesn't always, in my head, like, I know they fit in the comics right, but I didn't figure out how they were going to do it in the cinematic universe. But they did a really good job. And like, you saw subtle references everywhere to the Avengers films. And that was great. It was awesome. Happy. Happy it was in it. Happy! Finally we get him back. And he played a huge part. Yeah, February hasn't had their biggest part since in all the films. Yeah, I agree. He's been seen playing a great part in this. He always feels weird to me. I don't know. It's like a place that shouldn't be in the film almost. Kind of like a Stan Lee cameo. Oh, Stan Lee is Gary. Come on, that was cool. That was cool. He peeps his head out of the window. He's like, oh, it's like, Stan, you're still here. By the way, he's immortal, so. He is. He's a watcher. So there's so many things happening in the movie. There is special character. There's cameos. There's everything happening. We've got a spoiler review coming out very soon. So make sure you check out that. But for now, what the hell was your favorite bits? Me? Okay. I'm up. I'm up. The end sequence. Spider-Man versus the Vulture. That was an epic battle. That had me in the seat. I was like, ah, it was so good. I turned behind me. David Campbell's there. David Campbell's always there. I know he is, but hey, Sam. I screamed Jimmy just like looked away. But anyway, it was absolutely epic. That was my favorite. What was yours? Everything in high school. I loved all the high school stuff. I think there was something that the Spider-Man universe needs. He's a character. He's a teenager. He needs to be in high school, not for five minutes, for a whole movie. And this movie had it. And I loved every bit of it. I did it all up. Yeah, man. What do I say? I love the sequence where Peter goes to the suburbs, goes to a party, and then tries to be Spider-Man. And we see the limitations of his powers. It's not very good when there's no big buildings or anything, right? He's trying to flip through and falling through shed roofs and everything. I thought that was great. It was a real good differentiation from everything we've seen before. Definitely, man. Definitely. What was your worst part? Worst part? Okay, I always say this. I hate low points in the movie. There doesn't have to be low points ever. Can't he just get the girl, fight the villain, win, and become an Avenger? That's my low point. Your blow point is your life, mate. What was your scoop? Michael Giacchino wrote this awesome version of the TV show theme, and it only played over the credits. I was hoping that would kick in at some point in the film. Giacchino! The score is really cool, but that theme, they showed it right at the start, and they never brought it back, and they disappointed me a little bit. Fair enough. My worst part was Happy Hogan. I'm sorry. He didn't need to be in the movie, and he was in it so much. He was actually your main character, and that kind of did my head in. You brought in Robert Downey Jr. How the fuck can you bring in John Faravu? You got Robert Downey Jr. Just use him. You've already put him in all the trailers. Did you just pronounce it Faravu? I'm going to say it. Say it. How do you say it? Faravu? Faravu. Your favorite. Yeah, all right. Fair enough. John Faravu. Faravu. Faravu! That's the villain in Dr. Strange, isn't it? Oh, shit. So, is Spider-Man Homecoming any good? Yes. Yes! No. I hated it. You're kidding. It's amazing. Yes. Go see it. It's awesome. So, once again, I'm Ryan. This is Scott. This is Tras. We're all part of this. I wasn't any good. And until next time, make sure you hit that subscribe button. Comment below and let us know what you thought of Spider-Man Homecoming.

Felly, wnaeth yw'r ymwysig o hitting o'r rhaglau hyn. Felly, rydyn ni'n ymddielo'r rhaglau hynny. ond yw Adrian yn mynd i'n ffordd o'r awr ysgol yma. Rhaid i'n bwysig i'r fath, ac yn fawr y ddych chi'n ei ddweud, rhaid i'n bwysig i Adrian. Rhaid i'n bwysig i'n bwysig i'r fath. Rhaid i'n bwysig i'r fath? Rhaid, rhaid, rhaid? Rhaid i'n bwysig i ddweud Edward i'r Clys o'r byd i'n bwysig i'n bwysig i'r fath o'r holl. Rhaid i'n bwysig i'r holl. Yn dweud, mae'n cael ei wneud o gweithio. Mae'r wahanol ac mae'n gwaith o gweithio yma yw'r pethau a'r hanfodol sy'n gwybod gyda Peter Mankhoff. Mae'n gweithio, mae'n gweithio, mae'n gweithio, mae'n gweithio'n gweithio. A'i bod yn yr ysgolhau, mae'n gweithio yn y 1650s a 1660s, mae'n gweithio'n gweithio. Felly, a oeddwn ni'r wneud i'r cywspeth yng Nghymru, mae'n mynd i'r angen i ddylch yn ddysgu'r ddeithas yng Nghymru. Mae'n gwneud yn ei wneud i ddweud, yw'r unig. Rwy'n ym 1600, y coonid yng Nghymru, mae oherwydd mae'n coonid sylviau, mae'n ddweud i gael gwir, Oni'n gweld yn defnyddio'r enghraifft a'r bobl yn ystod yw'r cael ei awr iawn. Felly, sy'n meddwl y ffordd i'r ffordd ar y cyfnod ar y dda, ychydig swydd yn rhaid i ei ffordd i'r cyfnod. Mae'r rhai cyfnod yn ffordd ar gyfer hyn o gau. Mae'r ddweud yn y cyfnod ar gyfer hyderau'r cyffredig. Mae'r ddweud yn y cyffredig yn y cyffredig. Mae'r ddweud yn y cyffredig. Mae'r ddweud yn y cyffredig ar gyfer hyn. Mi gyd. These are small coins. They are difficult to make so the Royal Mint don't like making them. They're fiddly. You've got to cut a very small die. You're messing around with a tiny disc of silver. So, not many are made. They're also very easy to lose. You can see, something like that. And because they're not easy to make, the Mint prefer to make bigger coins like shillings and so forth. Ond ydych chi'n bobl wedi gweld bwysig. Mae'r bobl yma yn y cyfrifod yma, fel y mawr yn gyffrwch. Mae'r bobl yn rhaid amser wedi gweld ffiddwysiwyr yn y Llatyn, ond y gallwn bas ond mae'r hyn yn adeilad â'r fathau, bobl yw ddigon â'r effaith yn rhaid d crér. Mae'r hwnnw, i ffigo'n hynny. Ymlaff wna bwysig gwyan o'r holl. Felly, fel y mae hwnnw, gallwn i'n bwysig a'r holl. So, mae'r rhannu cyfwyr, ychydig o'r cwpan bwysigwyr o'r Gweithredu Cyfwyr, Fe yw'r cyfwyr Cysur. Fe ydych chi'n gweld Ym Mhwyl Cysur i'w wahanol yw 1649, mae'n maen nhw'n gweld o gyfwyr mewn gwirionedd Caerdydd. Mae'n gweithio'r cyfwyr dda i'r cyfwyr o'r cyfwyr, yw bod hynny'n yn ôl i'n cyfwyr o'r gwirionedd Caerdydd yn cael ei gwaith. Ond mae'n gweithio'r problem yn y bydd. Obviously, if you've not got enough small chains, you got problems, it really makes training difficult. So, what do people do? They have their own tokens made. I suppose one thing to talk about is what these things are worth before we carry on. Well, it's a pre-decimal system. So, you have a pound, which is yw'r cyfnod o'r £1,000 yma. Mae'n i'n fath o'r alyu cyfnod o'r cyfnod o'r cyfnod o'r cyfnod, ond mae'n rhaid o'r hyffordd y gallwn arfer o'r gaelol. Y rhai o'r cyfnod o'r 20 ymgylchedd, oherwydd y cyfnod o'r cyfnod o'r 50 ymgylchedd, a 12 penniol yn ychwanelifad. So, mae'n ddweud y penniol. Mae'r cwrddur yn ddweud 4 o 5 cwyd yn y cwrnod. Mae'r half penniol yn ddweud penniol, ac mae oedd o'r pwysig ddweud yn sylweddol. A mae'n ddweud o'r pwysig o'r pwysig o'r pwysig, yr adroddau o fyw o ddweud. A mae'n ddweud o'r pwysig o'r pwysig, mae'n gwybod yn llwyll yn fwy o ddweud. Felly mae gennym ei bod ychwanegau o ukwyr yn 17 oed. Mae'r gweithio os yw mwy oedd yn rhan o'r gweithio. Rwy'n credu bod y gallwn yn cael ei gweithio, felly mae'r gweithio gennym eu bod yn ei i. A gweithio'r gweithio yw'r gweithio. Felly mae'r methi gweithio'r gweithio ar y tocan yma ar 1650-1660. Mae'r gweithio yn y Llyngdyn i, ac mae'r gweithio'r gweithio'r gweithio, ac mae'r gweithio'r gweithio ar-deithas. Mae'n gweithio'r gweithio. i gael ei wneud yn dweud ar ei wneud. Dwi'n gweithio fydd yn gweithio gwybod ychydig eu cyflawn, a rydych chi'n gweithio'r ysgol yn ymweld i'r Parys yma, ond rhai o'r ffeirio'r ysgol yn ysgol, ond efallai yn gweld i'n bryd o bobl yn ymgyrch. Mae'r ddweud yn 16 miliometr o gweithio, mae'n 2.5 o gweithio'n gweithio. Dyna'r gwneud y mynd i'r isio'r, dweud George Reeve. Dyna ydw i'r blaen o'r obfersau, mae'n gweithio, mae'n golygu ytod, maen nhw'n gweithio. Dyna'r blaen o'r obfersau mae'n gweithio'r cyffredin, mae'r cyffredin a'r cyffredin, a'r cyffredin i'r busnes. Mae'n ddwy'n ymddiogel yw'r cyffredin o'r 17th, mae'n ddweud cyffredin o'r cyffredin. felly gallwch chi'n gwybod ni'n meddwl. Yn ymgyrch, mae'n ddiogelio'r prif mwyaf o'r grosas company o London. Dwi'n meddwl ar grosas yma arall o'r llwygr. Mynd i'n gwybod, George Reeve yn meddwl. Mae'r daun yn yw'r cyfrifiad sy'n meddwl i'r cyrfaen fwyaf yw'r cyfrifiad. Mae nhw i'n meddwl, nid yw fwyaf yw'r cyfrifiad. ac mae gennych iawn y traiad yr hyn yn ysgol wedi newydd. A mae'r wych g serfedarad yn ffasfa. Felly mae'r ar-fill yn cyfrifi ar bob y popo ac mae'r gysig ar George mae'r ar-ffillaid ar hyn yn ysgol. Felly fod yna'r arfa'n i fynd yn ysgol yn rhyngwy, nid yn ôl cyflن ysgol yn ysgol yn yr hyn.

Felly byddwn i'n meddwl am bwysig yw'r probyr yn bwysig, ac mae'n gofio'n gwneud yw'r cyffredinol, mae'n gweithio'r cyffredinol. Mae'n gweithio'r cyffredinol. Mae'n gweithio'r cyffredinol, mae'n gweithio'r cyffredinol ar gyfer gweithio'r cyffredinol. Felly, mae'r fourtypicol tokens. Well, what to say about 17 cents of tokens in the past. We know that the first collector, or the first collector we know of, was a charcoal brown willis who was collecting the very early 18th century. Sadly, not everybody was so keen. John Evelyn is very prophetic and he writes, for tokens may happily in after time come to exercise and busy the learned critic what they should signify and fill whole volumes with their conjectures. Indeed, many, many, many volumes have been filled on these things. Pinkerton is not quite so nice. These town pieces and tradesman's tokens are collected by some antiquaries with an avidity truly pure isle. I will then say that the workmanship is always utterly contemptible and that not one purpose of taste, information or curiosity can be drawn from them. And he continues, it needs hardly be added that they are recommended to a supreme scorn of the reader who may justly regard for studying or collecting them along with the admiration of counters as beneath any man of taste. Well, that's told me, hasn't it? I am a token anorak. I will hope to prove Pinkerton wrong in the course of my talk today anyway. So there we are. They are a bit more well thought of now. Right, let's begin with Norwich in the period. We do have rather a nice bird's eye view here of Norwich from the west looking over and you can see the various landmarks of Castle and Cathedral. So a nice bird's eye view, 1660, I'm slap bang in the period we're looking at and then if you spin that aerial view round and have a map here, you'll have the Wenceslan through, you have the northern wards at the top, the ultra acran, that area across the river, across the water and then south of the river and indeed west of it. You have said Peter Mankroff, the palace has said Peter Mankroff here. It's of course borders be marked in part and this is be the market area. Now before we carry on it's probably an idea to look at how much this area has changed. This is sorry, not yet Chris. We have the main market now and then you've got the overall which was on Peter Street and then the never old gentlemen's walk. Take Peter Mankroff here and the livestock market used to be here. Let's look at the area now. This is the market area now, massively different. You've got the forum of course, City Hall built in 1938 and then the market is pretty much all stalls and the only two constants really linking the market area today as it was in the 60s and 50s and 1660s is Mankroff itself and the Guild Hall. We will look at the Guild Hall later. Right, let's go back to one of the earliest maps we have here. This is Hoyle's map of 1728. You can see the market very different. You've got lots of buildings here which we'll come back to in a minute and you have this great big monstrosity here. This is not quite to scale because as you see it's the biggest St Peter Mankroff but this was a very big thing. It was indeed the market cross and this is 60 or 70 feet high and this stands at the bottom or stood at the bottom end of the market. It's demolished in 1732 which is why it appears on Hoyle's map of 1728 but not on King's map of 1766. You can see it's gone but that may have gone but the rest of the market is still very alien compared to today. You've got all these buildings here slap bang in the centre of what's now the marketplace. You've got St Peter Street here obviously the City Hall long long in the future and the Foreman long in the future as well. This is a view about 1800 from the top of the market, basically top of the Guild Hall looking south to Mankroff and then this is actually the fish market or was for fish markets at the time. That occupies the higher ground just below where City Hall now stands and finally we'll go through a sort of quick survey of what happens. This is an area of view of the market in 1920s and grateful to Jonathan Plunkett who has generally allowed me to use his late father George's photographs which you can also find out online. You can see all these houses here swinging round and circling Mankroff by coming right up to the gates of Mankroff and then the Guild Hall here and then all these big buildings. They go away with all flesh. This is the buildings in the early 30s. You can see you can see St Peter Street behind. This is pre-City Hall and then all those houses are demolished so you've got this great wave of land here which will become City Hall. This is just before 1938. You've still got all those buildings however. That changes shortly. Oh sorry Chris could we have the last one again. All these houses survived until 1961. We'll come back to those shortly. Here we have the big buildings in the centre of the market being demolished. This is in 1938. You can see City Hall has been put up by this time and then continuing to be demolished and you can see the Guild Hall here so it gives you an idea of where these buildings are located. Right so that's what the area looks like. Let's now start to look at some of the people who lived in Mankroff down well as I say I've been buried there. You've got an awful lot of sources to go out here. You've got parish records, baptisms, maritism, burials. They're obviously quite useful so you can track these people down. Remember if you have one of those tried initials with the wife's initials and that's quite useful. You have a mayoralty court books which are big big books in the Norfolk Record Office in the Archives Centre where all the decisions of a court of mayoralty which is headed by the mayor and including the old woman and common council, they meet and they pass judgments on people or building regulations all sorts of things like that so some of those can be very interesting. There's the half tax assessments. They're assessed for, no it's in 1666 and basically you're taxed a shilling on every half you have in your house. So it's an attempt to sort of wealth tax the bigger the house the more halves you've got the more you should pay. It's replaced by the equally unpopular window tax in William III's reign where as you can guess you're taxed on your windows. There are also wills and other probate records. They can be very interesting indeed. Obviously a will is telling you how someone is disposing of their property after their death and you can also get things like probate inventories where all the possessions that the deceased are listed. They're far less common but they sometimes survive and then there's lots of other contemporary records for example registers of the freedom of the city. If you're starting in trade and this only applies to men in this period you need to have the freedom of knowledge to trade. You can trade for two years in a day without it but then you must have the freedom. This basically signalling someone starting out their their career usually although some people put the freedom off as long as they can. So there's all sorts of things to go at. We'll leave that there for now but the Norfolk Record Office as you might guess has stacks of stuff relating to Norwitz and some of that relates to the tokenessers themselves. So right let's have a survey now, a tour if you like round St Peter Mancroft in the 1650s and 1660s and actually meet some of these people. The first one we have here um oh Parker, John Parker, a lamb and of now it's 1665 and we know from the records what his wife was he. Now for lamb, the lamb on the token and this is where the lamb is now. Now I've mixed feelings on this place. Still in operation, it's very nice on one hand to have a tavern or an inn that was base for a tokeness or a still in operation but I did pay my first £5 for a pint in that place it is rather on the expensive side but it does survive. It's one of only two pubs would do, the other is the Adam and Eve on the other side of the city but John Parker, the lamb references the inside or what would have been the inside of the lamb but Parker wasn't the licensee and this is something we we need to look at briefly. Not all licensees issue tokens and not all tokenessu is our licensees indeed quite often a tokenessu might be based somewhere operating maybe out of the back or conducting their business from a shop there but they're not actually in charge of the place so the lamb is the base of John Parker but he's not actually running the pub. We know that Parker is a Mercer now Mercers in this period are are sort of top-end wholesalers there they're supplying reasonably good expensive items they stand above grocers who are wholesalers dealing with more more common sort of stuff and haberdasers who are similar so yeah Mercer's are sort of top-end and Parker is one of those. Augustine Briggs now the token says Augustine Briggs if you look this is an error at the tower of London where his tokens were made it should be Briggs now Briggs is an interesting character he's born in 1617 he's apprenticed in Norwich and then while he's sort of finishing off his apprentice ship the civil war breaks out and Briggs in contrast to most people in Norwich who are very much for parliament goes off to fight for the king and he's present at the seeds of kings linn in 1643 the royals get beaten there so Briggs comes back to Norwich with his tail between his legs and well he surely keeps his head down we know he's not punished for it Cousins Harding Kent in their book on the mares of Norwich they say that he's split to his alderman ship who is Aldermanry that's not the case because he's only 25 he's far too young to be an alderman in the first place and indeed he's not an alderman until much much later but he does get himself an accidental common count from 1656 so he's obviously not that inimical to the corporation of knowledge during the Commonwealth but it is in 1660 of the restoration but his star really comes into the ascendant he's made sheriff in that year in 1660 with the restoration trials for second and 10 years later he's mayor and incredibly we have two portraits surviving he's just about the only token issuer in the country who we have a portrait surviving of um and that's because he's doing very well by 1670 one in his mayoral robes and another dressed as a cavalier which echoes what one of his contemporaries says about him he is an honest old cavalier cavalier and a very understanding man we will see shortly that he actually wasn't quite that understanding with some people but he does very well he is mayor as I say in 1670 his MP for Norwich one of the two MPs in the late 1670s and early 1680s and then he dies in 1684 his tomb or rather his war memorial is there and on it you have letters picked out in lead it's rather impressive monument and in latin part of it translating as the good genius of the city and county of the isini a man of honest report sound judgment and wise understanding an approved example of piety charity and sociability and brigsters very nicely because he has a street named after him brig street you know where this is presumably um you're going out down that way um it wasn't always called brig street it was originally called brig's lane um in the early 19th century the s is dropped and it becomes a street rather than a lane but named after brig's because his house stood there so the street comes to bear his name so brig's does does rather well brocdon is a different character entirely brocdon is a bit of a scoundrel really um he could I suppose be called a pragmatic businessman it's uh it's up to you no one for many years knew what the castle signified they said it might be part of the arms of noix which has a castle and a lion or it could refer to an inside that's correct but it wasn't until I went to an awful record office and had a random search that I found out why look at his career briefly first in noix wife are another rebecca he becomes three in 1636 he takes on a few apprentices he starts as a haberdasher sometimes described as a millionaire so a sort of rather low end tradesman and then as his career progresses he starts to change his title and he ends up describing himself as a mercer and then finally in his will which is proven 1680 he is styled gent gentleman now this is the same as brig's and basically if you do very well in trade you can basically buy yourself land and buy yourself gentility on the back of that so brocdon does this but his earlier career is not quite so glorious first of all he gets in trouble this is where the castle was but let's look at a document first this is the document I found this is a court summons and it's a summoning James brocdon or brocdon as he's called in the document to court in 1655 what's he done wrong well he has behaved very mortally because he obviously owns the castle this inn and what he's been doing is for the last year he has been taking in overnight paying guests now you have to be licensed as an ancient inn to do that you can't just set up and do it and there are two inns in the neighbourhood which have that right and they're obviously a bit miffed at James brocdon taking um well starting at competition we'll look at them in turn but first here we have it it mentions James brocdon of Norwick's haberdasher of small wares and then one common inn called the castle common inn not an ancient inn we don't know what happens to brocdon but plainly he gets out of it because he's got the castle on his token which is dated 1664 so as you're sure so he's kind of got out of it and whether the castle is allowed to take a paying over that guest by then or not we don't know but it does certainly turn into a hotel because this is a castle hotel later on this is second world war you can see a a little baros balloon and then an american officer in the foreground but that's the frontage of the castle hotel if you remember the little map the original entrance is on white lions is on white lion street this is the later entrance when it comes out onto the area below the castle mound so the entrance is changing but the back entrance still remained this is earlier this century you can make that castle hotel that's the place so it survived until relatively recently it was knocked down in 1989 to make way for the castle now and that's what stands there now that's the old heart foundation um where electricity and furnaces shop so the castle survived as i say until until pretty recently let's look at the other places and one this is one ancient inn called the blue bell now no one as far as we know issued a token at the blue bell but it does still stand it's now that rather awful weather spoons pub on hark hill um later orford hill but it's still the same place now of course it looks nothing like it would have done it's been holy but the inside's been stripped out to put all those awful neon lights and things in and the exterior is heavily rebuilt in the 19th century so it looks nothing like it would have done but it is on the place where the blue bell was so that's the blue bell and the other one one called the white lion now the white lion was on white lion street it gives white lion street its name it was white lion lane then again like like the bridge it was a lane not a street at the time the white lion we are fortunate also housed a token assure again he's not the licensing he does seem from all the records i can lay my hands on to have been a barber which is a bit odd but i suppose if you are having a shave or your hair cut a farring token to use as chains is perfect given a shave is probably costing a hair cut is probably costing a hate me or something like that so he's based there his wife elizabeth rather annoyingly his son who's also called william money also marries an elizabeth but we know this token 16 late 1650s stylistically and we know the son is not old enough to be usher in the token at that stage so it's the father who's issuing it and of course the little lion here is referencing the white lion so again it's it's a signboard that's where it is the white lion and you can see it's either marked this is the king's map we looked at earlier 1766 and it's marked here white lion lane it's in mancroft and white lion lane you can see the bell here which we looked at and the white lion is the other ancient inn which has a right to put people up overnight if they pay and it's quite probable that money is one of the people who's a bit annoyed at Brockton usherping that in's right to to take people in so we don't know but that's the white line for you rather nicely this is another place that survives here it remains the white line until 1918 it then becomes the haymarket stores which is another pub another inn and that's closed down in 1974 this is a viewer that in the 30s you can see here these two twin game balls here at the top and that's looking away from mancroft this is looking towards mancroft in a market place you can see the two little game balls still it's like the remodel and it was a costa until very recently it closed as a costa just before the lockdown so it's absolutely up for let but it's quite nice to let somewhere out but the tokenists who had lived in but I think the asking price is rather enormous so that's the white lion we'll look at a rather sadder story now and this is John Brown the token shows what you would be forgiven for thinking as a duck here it is in fact a swan and it is referencing for white swan now the white swan there's a huge coaxing in right outside the gates of mancroft we'll look at the location in a minute for now it's enough to know that Brown was married to Susan strikes for token in 1657 he is born at Wacton in 1629 he marries Susan at some point in the early 1650s but I've not found a marriage record as yet but they have their first child Mary in 1654 so the tokenist issued fairly early in his working life we know from the records but here's a confectioner or sugar baker so he's he's making pastes basically and as I say the white swan here King's map records it the postcoach to London in one day from the white swan so it's coaxing in then in 1766 and as you can see it is right outside the doors of mancroft see here we go back to that aerial view for me 1920s and you can see here which white frontage if you can make it out that is the frontage of what was the white swan you can see it's right up to the ports of mancroft in fact he he could he could probably have lobbed a jammed heart um from his threshold into the ports it's that close nowadays if you're standing on the stacks of the forum you are pretty much where the white swan was and indeed another of George Plunkett's photographs this one in the courtyard of the old white swan it's become a swan by now this is 1961 just before it's demolition it was demolished to make way for the central library which of course in its turn fell victim to fire a member forum of course now occupied site but this is the courtyard before it's demolished and you can see the great tower of mancroft in the background and rather nicely this is a hint of how high status three white swan was originally as i said it's it became a slum but when they're knocking it down they come across it's rather fine it's fine medieval cellar here with these vaulted arches so it was it was quite a building originally before it began this sad sliding down into a slum okay getting back to poor old John Brown and mentioned the first child Mary she survives to become an adult although that's not it's not the whole story they have 11 more children they all die and i came across this quite by accident this has been led to slap the floor stone to Susan Brown the daughter of John and Susan Brown and it is right by where my mini exhibition is if you want to look later see guys in 1686 age 19 just short of becoming what would have been an adult at the time the stone also has a rather nice little poem at the bottom here lies a single flower scarcely blown 10 more before the northern gates are strewn plucked from a self-stained stork only to be transplanted to a better nursery so that's poor Susan and the other 10 children there they're all buried either with Susan or perhaps outside in the in the graveyard outside the the northern porch which is that door there so one daughter survives now we do have the will of both John Brown and later of Susan Brown his widow now what's very sad is in the main body of both wills there are several complicated sections dealing with looking after their daughter Mary she is obviously very severely elementary or physically disabled she needs looking after so people are appointed to look after the money that's being left in her name and to look after her so it's sad that the only surviving daughter has possibly severe problems but what was quite nice in Susan Brown's will the widow she dies at Wackton the two of them obviously moved back there to retire effectively John Brown is described as a gentleman so he's another of his tokenist who is who makes the leap into gentility on the back of all his hard work but then there's this quite exceptional bit here in the will and chopping it up to fit the slide Susan Brown wishes to be decently buried in the parish church of st Peter of mancroft in the city of Norwich as near my daughter Susan as may be in a voyage right over there significantly she doesn't want to be buried with her husband who we know was buried at Wackton she wants to be brought back to st Peter mancroft to lie close to her one of her daughters right we move on the king's head william cooper king's head on one side and a rose on the other we know he wasn't the licentiae at the king's head that was a mr dysley's this is where the king's head was knocked down in 1913 to make way for david place so no longer surviving and it moved and it's now gone and then you can see the place here this is a painting from the early 19th century and you see it's a coaching in because you've got a coach coming out of the entry and the king's head side there cooper is obviously based there as I say he's not the licentiae we don't quite know what he did the rose might refer to another rose pub or tavern which we know it's around the corner near the castle mound so it may be that he's got his fingers in two pies and he's advertising both his businesses on the one token we can't be sure we know he's buried in mancroft later on and then interestingly we get another token issuer at that place this is al his name isn't given but we can be fairly sure that here's the grocer andrew lightfoot who is based at the post office in 1661 well the post office in 1661 was at the king's head so he's another token issuer based there as well as cooper he's not running the post office because it's called sovereignty is the postmaster in 1661 so you've got dice these realized and see sovereignty the postmaster and these two also based there in 1666 and 61 and he is another plague victim in 1666 well that's the post office we'll move on now to Laurence Goodwin the golden camel and you have a golden camel oh goodwin goodwin now Laurence Goodwin starts his career in the 1650s he's apprenticed as a grocer but he becomes a confectioner like John Brown and indeed they're quite near to one another he has a long and distinguished career he fills many civic officers he's sheriff in 1682 we'll see him acting in that capacity shortly and mayor in 1697 he lives to the advanced age of 91 and is buried in st Andrews in 1725 we know that he starts off in mancroft but he moves to st Andrews by 1666 but he's an apprentice and he he works his way through the civic officers and has a has a long and quite distinguished career and the golden camel we believe it was here where Clark's shoe shop now stands at the end of brig street we believe that's where it was now interestingly oh and there's um Laurence Goodwin's tombstone uh it's mainly partly covered up by the pews in st Andrews as indeed are many tombstones here but that's where it is and it records him um being um old and when he's sometime mayor but we have another camel now it's very unlikely there's say a red camel or a silver camel or anything i'm sure this also references the golden camel but it's another issuer and this is Anthony Mingay in Norwich he also is apprenticed as a grocer but he becomes an apothecary and so ends up in the medical trade if you like he's a very different individual to Goodwin he's pretty much born with a silver spoon in his mouth he is apprenticed does become a trader but he inherits Cursons Manor in Sraines Fork in 1663 and a heap of money he seems to pretty much give up work as indeed who wouldn't and indeed he doesn't want to serve in civic officers because they cost money so he pays 85 pounds that's about say 85,000 pounds in today's money so he doesn't have to so he can skip the shrievulty, the sherrythdom, and the mayoralty and serving his alderman and so on so that's what he does we know he moves to St Stephen's by 1666 the golden camel that is right slapbanger on the border of mancroft and St Stephen's parishes anyway so we know both him and Goodwin move away but we know that they're both in the parish of mancroft before 1666 so he could have had the golden camel then Goodwin or vice versa or perhaps both working out at the same time we don't know interestingly Mingay was one of the witnesses to the will of Sir Thomas Brown um the war memorial over there and he also lives into his well into his 70s um Mingay right the guild hall this was the administrative centre of Norwich before city hall was built and county hall all the running of Norwich is done from here it's where the alderman meet where the court of mayoralty meets the common council all that and it also has a prison below which we're looking to shortly it's also where all the courts meet so Quakers not popular with Quakers they're an independent group they have various differences would be established Protestant church um one of them perhaps the main one being they don't believe that ministers are necessary to mediate between between you and god they are unpopular to say the least now they start to build an an assembly house on goat lane in 1678 they probably should have kept their heads down because this seems to lead to a persecution in 1682 now you remember in 1682 who was sheriff it's Lawrence Goodwin um this is the sort of things where Quakers are accused of above ordinances free will um et cetera et cetera a lot of these charges levelled out from our of course untrue but that doesn't mean mud doesn't stick Goodwin again well Goodwin is sheriff in 1682 as we've seen so here's the bloke who's charged with bringing the Quakers in and it's clear that he doesn't like the Quakers on the basis of how he behaves they're dragged to the Guild Hall Goodwin is punching them the back and when he gets there he says if his majesty was of my mind he would send you all to Jamaica now Jamaica wasn't full of all inclusive hotels then it was a rather different not a nice place to be sent to it's unfortunate that when the Quakers get to be Guild Hall and they're brought up for trial that the JP presiding is none other than our friend Augustine Briggs Briggs as we heard earlier was described as a very understanding man that did not extend however to Quakers the Quakers have brought before Briggs and they held their hands up to say we've got no we've got no weapons where we're where we're fine we don't mean any harm and Briggs replies you could have pistols in your pockets for ought I know the Quakers then asked if they might be sent somewhere decent to wait out there period before they're brought to trial and Briggs says no and he says if you've got no money you will go in the whole now what happened in the 17th century if you want a decent accommodation in prison the paid for it it's as simple as that the Quakers aren't doing this so Briggs sends them to the whole you can visit the whole it's under the Guild Hall in fact I went there last year on Heritage Open Week then you can see it's a vaulted cellar basically not unlikely cellar beneath the white swan and you can see this is where it is if you're on the outside of the Guild Hall it's down there 62 of the Quakers are crammed in the whole rather ironically it was deemed unfit for use as a prison in the reign of Elizabeth the first um but didn't stop it being reused now I can't find any intimate connection with a token issue of air but I have got a sort of side long one the only Quaker I know of who issued a token was Charles Reeve he's a cordwainer the token issue in 1664 quite early in his career we know he's a Quaker because much later on towards the end of his life he marries quite a much younger widow in 1698 called Elizabeth Greenwood and this is the document here and Quaker fashion you have a load of witnesses appending their names so this records the marriage of the second marriage of um the token issue and Greenwood and second on that list you saw it highlighted in the last slide is Stephen Ames now interestingly Ames marries the widow of um Reeve he Reeve dies very soon after his second marriage but Ames marries the widow he's second on the list of witnesses to Reeve's wedding and interestingly we know he was in the hole for two years between 1680 and 1684 they keep them languishing there for two years and we know that Stephen Ames or Ames was one of them because he does feature in the records Reeve doesn't so Reeve presumably escaped it one more issuer who starts his career in mancroft but moves on he is Jeremy Vin grosses arms token issue in 1657 early in a career which lasts until 1705 when he dies rather nicely his house survives i said he moved away from mancroft he moves to be cathedral precinct and if you go in by the apple tree the gate his house immediately on your left on your right rather this is it big many gables thing and rather nicely on the gables you have IVS i Jeremy Vin and the initial Susan of his third wife and then 01 and there would have been a 17 there so built in 1701 now i got to reading Vin's will and this spurred me on because you have this section here it's written in on 15th of november 1703 i incredibly informed she this is his youngest daughter sorry oldest daughter Susan she is lately married without my approbation and consent so i thought oh i so i thought i would go and check and indeed two days before this will was written Susan vin the younger his eldest daughter named after her mother married John Peter or Jean Pierre gets bored at Westminster two days so someone has hotfooted it from Westminster to sneak on the young couple and Jeremy Vin is obviously furious and either writes a will or rewrites his will sadly the couple come back to know it's where season gives birth to a son named John Peter after his father um but they die um John Peter is actually frekway's friends as you can tell he's a friends you know he came over William III in 1689 and he's a soldier he was a captain at the state um at the stage he becomes the lieutenant general in the end and never remarries he dies at Enfield in the 1740s so um quite a sad story that and Jeremy then is buried in the ambulatory of the cathedral right at the right at the top and you can go and see his tomb interestingly his wife is buried with him his eldest his youngest daughter Mary his son-in-law John Knights and other members of the family but not Susan his daughter that is okay i've not mentioned many tokenists and women today that's simply because there are very very few of them there are 91 tokenists who is in Norwich three of them are women they are all widows carrying on their dead husband's business it's not helped because 17th century is a fairly showingistic age women cannot be free of the city therefore they can't carry on business if they're spinsters or if they're married they can only do that if they're widows and they're a widow of a tradesman that's the case with Ann Mumford here this is produced after Richard Mumford her husband has died in 1657 interestingly Ann Mumford carries on his trade as a grocer and their son George Mumford also starts out in trade as a grocer it looks like George thinks he's a bit better than a grocer because he puts a merchant's mark on his token um that's showing you you think you're you're a bit you're a bit more than a mere grocer but it looks like Ann is better at business because we know that when Ann makes her will in 1672 George owes her 100 quid that's about 100,000 quid in today's money so it looks like she is the more astute businessman and George for all his pretensions to being a merchant is probably not quite so good and one other token assure um who's female um Ann Mumford is Saint Peter Markov so his blive pattern here blive pattern a rose um probably referencing the rose tavernal road pub where she may have been based um we know she's she was a worsted weaver or obviously is the widow a worsted weaver and presumably carrying on the worsted weaver's trade and obviously this is a widow so it's just her two initials bh right we'll end now or very shortly we've seen there's plenty of places which are connected with tokeners so big places this fine building various shops or buildings that were were once inns or shops where tokeners was based it's very rare but you can hold something other than the tokens which was intimately connected with a token assure there is one example though this is a token as you see of eggwood woodyard pierce perhaps we use the paint or something like that and then E W eggwood yard 1656 and M for Margaret's wife and rather nicely this survives this is in the castle museum collection but it is on long term loan to the worsted for company of grocers in london because it has the grosses arms on it the token has an abbreviated form it has been sugar loaf and clothes but you have here E W M eggwood yard and the gate 1649 so seven years before the token was issued and as you may be aware there is a little exhibition at the back of the well the entrance of the church which tells a few of these stories on paper and if you like do have a look around the starting point is actually on the far side so you start there and go round and of course there's also Susan Brown's tombstone there as well and as Fiona mentioned earlier I there's five copies of my book and catalogue of the Norwich custom museum collection for sale I've only been five I'm afraid but the proceeds are to go to the church and so with that I will say thank you very much well it might I'm Chris Salam I'm the events manager here at the St Peter Mankrothal coordinator and it falls to me to offer a vote of thanks to Adrian this afternoon um Adrian I don't think you are an anorec rail you've got one heck of an amount of enthusiasm and you get it over to us in such a easy way to understand as well so thank you so much for your	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RMK12Uz5Ng",

UCLR064MHxTrpWoK35Uj1CwQ	That's Air University-Building Your Replacement	Maj. Branden Jarmon, an Air University instructor at Officer Training School, talks about the importance of education in our military and how his time as an instructor has made him a better officer.	null	2020-06-10T11:52:33	2024-02-05T08:59:41	66	5RPBsO8Mplo	Just to see the impact that you have on trainees and to watch their development throughout the eight-week program is transformative. It's amazing. Several OTs have come up to me and asked, how do I become an instructor? How do I come back to do this? And it's one, because they love the program. They see the benefit of it. Or two, is hey, I have some great ideas on how we can make this program better. And both of them are welcome. We're always finding ways to be more innovative and we're changing the times and technology. And so we need people that want to come back to make those changes and implement them here. And then at every university as a whole, on the opposite side, we're always going to come through here. And so the quality of education that we've received is going to impact not only us, but our followers as well. And so if you don't have quality instructors, then you're pretty much going to be a lower quality partner. They're going to be leading people throughout their careers in some capacity. And so being able to identify strengths, weaknesses, ways to mentor, ways to develop, and developing your replacement no matter what branch or career field we're in is extremely important. And that's Air University.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RPBsO8Mplo", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Everton drew 1-1 with Brighton and Hallwell being a good of some park on Saturday. Everton manager Sean Dides thought that it was a point gained rather than two drop. This is what the Blues boss had to say after the 1-1 draw. The tactical side of the game was fantastic from the players. We know they're a team that played possession, you've got to be patient. I have a tiny little question on our, when we did turn it over because we got in some brilliant positions today. Last season we capitalised on them, today we didn't as much. The work ethic of the players, three games in six days, virtually the same group. The way that they're growing with the mentality to take on games is absolutely fantastic so I'm absolutely delighted with that side of things. There you go. The manager pleased with a draw against Brighton. He keeps evident, just taking over an extra point gained there. The Blues is so close to winning three games in a week. On we go to Palace next week, let's hope we can get the three points there. Sean Dides was speaking positively about the performances of Vitaly Michalenco and Jared Branthwaite once again putting another excellent display at the heart of the Blues defence. This is what the Toffees boss had to say about them. I thought, Micho's doing well, he's learning all the time, he's improving all the time, he's playing strong. Jared and Tarky are playing that. In fact, defensively, which was a big part of the game today, defence to attack of course, I'm really pleased because early season we were dominating games and not getting a reward for it, with the ball that is. Today was a different style of performance and I'm so pleased with the flexibility of the group. We've been trying to encourage different ways of playing, different ways of affecting a game and different ways of getting an outcome. So I'm really pleased with that. The players are adapting to most of the challenges that come their way. Evertonians are seeing, I believe, a team that put everything into a game and I think they saw that again today. So these are building blocks. We're not the real deal, I keep saying that, but they're building blocks about what we're looking for in the consistency of the mentality. The mentality was excellent today, I thought. Be sure over the weekend, Miquel Artheta, absolutely raging after the Newcastle's goal against Arsenal Artheta coming out and having a go at the referees and VAR and the PGMOL and all of those people. Everton could have had two penalties on Saturday, both the crucial times in the game. Arbos wasn't quite so colourful and quite so angry with the one that went against us, but he was still a little bit disappointed. Everton felt that he should have had a penalty. This is what Sean Dates had to say on that matter. I think he just borderline starts outside but drags him inside the box. I mean it's a really important call that and it went against us because I don't know how that one went against us today because I thought it was obvious. I'm bound to say that, but I think when people see it, I'd be surprised if they didn't think there was certainly a big suggestion of that one being wrong. 777 have submitted all the documents requested by the Premier League and the Financial Conduct Authority to try and take over Everton Football Club. They are confident rather of completing a deal to gain control of the football club by the end of the year. That has always been their timeline. This is still amidst other stories coming out today in publication Joss Amar, which suggests the group lost 600 million in the last year. It doesn't make great reading. Obviously we'll wait to see if I'm sure 777 will have something to say or some comments to make on those stories as well. That is out there today, but that is also following something that was said by Alan Nixon last night which said that 777 could face competition from an Indian consortium we are very interested in buying Everton as well, some wealthy businessman involved in that consortium. They are apparently watching developments and could put a bid in for the Blues should 777 be unsuccessful. You have to take this with a pinch of salt given that why haven't they already put a bid in for the club? Why didn't they come in at the start or are they just being elated to the possibility now? Do they know that 777 may not get granted permission to take Everton over? It's an interesting one, but I'm wondering if there's more than just this Indian consortium watching this space with interest. We'll have to wait and see, but it does seem as though things are developing where 777 and the full takeover of Everton Football Club are concerned. Everton are apparently monitoring 17-year-old Croatian and Osijek striker Anton Makovic. The 17-year-old is very, very highly rated. Arby Sulzberg a Sasiu Ollo are interested in him as well. This further evidence that Everton are casting their net far and wide now trying to get young, exciting talent into the football club. We showed the purchase of Yousuf Cymru in the summer from Sport and Lisbon and hopefully Everton are moving down that route as well. On top of that, Fabricio Romano has said that Everton and Juventus are keeping close tabs on Swiss striker Winsley Batelli. He's also 17 years of age, very, very highly rated. He currently plays for Borussia Munch in Gladbach and he's recently changed his agent and the rumours on top of that is because he's interested in moving and Everton are very, very interested in him. So this could be a part of Everton's new policy to try and get some younger talent in obviously the work permit. Laws have changed in this country as well. So we'll see whether there's any legs in that. And finally, John Philippe Gabaman, who left Everton on deadline day, his contract was terminated. He has joined French league two-side USL Dunkerch until the end of the season. Wish John Philippe well in his new club. That is it for the news today. Make sure you check out the final where they haven't won bright and won't give the video a thumbs up, subscribe. If you haven't, see you later. Till this day, I do not know why I did it. I've seen an opportunity to probably leave a little bit on him, but when I look back I go, I've done that for. You know, I got away with it. I got away with it. There's no VR. But I felt and then it was a good meeting man brought me down later on in that game and we missed the penalty. So it ended up being that it just even wasted what I did and didn't even win. I didn't get any points out of it. It looks really bad and I had to write a letter. Rio Ferdinham went off his head. But again, I would. You know, I just had to suck it up and apologise and look, it's out of me character. You know, it's not me. It's not sorry. You don't do that to any professional footballer. And I just don't know what come over to me. I don't know. Probably just knew he was going to rip me.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rZAm2JV_RY", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

And I'll also tell you what other alternatives exist if you still want to tackle the region solo. Now, first off is the Inca Trail. You can't hike the Inca Trail on your own. It just wouldn't be reasonable. There's too much at stake. There's a lot of historical significance and we don't need somebody running out there with a rock or stone and carving something of their own personal motivation into the wall. We want to keep everything safe. And this is done by having legitimate guides and travel agencies regulated and being the only ones that are allowed on the trail itself. Second reason is the stimulated economy. We want to definitely make sure that there are people in the area that get paid or experience some of the benefits of external tourism. And that's done by employing locals and such to get them to be porters and to allow them to take your stuff around the area. It's a reasonable thing to do as well. And then the last as well is cleanliness. You certainly don't want people running out there and getting drunk on the trail or leaving toilet paper all over the place. Maybe there'd be other things like vandalism or violence other things that would just otherwise happen if it was an unregulated area. Now you can still buy beer on the trail and these are done at some of the little stations along the way but other than that people aren't throwing bonfire parties. But anyway, you'll always need a tour guide if you want to travel the Inca Trail. An alternative to the Inca Trail would be the Salkentide Trail. The Salkentide Trail has a few benefits. The other one of most being is not the Inca Trail and it still ends up at Machu Picchu. Now the Salkentide Trail also has a benefit at the beginning. You'll be able to hike past Lake Umenti. Umenti is at the base of Salkentide Mountain. The mountains were revered by the Incan people. And Umenti itself is a wonderful, gorgeous lake that we had the fortune to go visit or visit on our own without actually hiking the Salkentide Trail. Salkentide Trail still has a good amount of elevation climbing. You're still hiking through the Andes. It has wonderful views. And like I said, it's the only other one that's actually going to take you to Machu Picchu. Last on the list right now is the Chocokiro Trail. The Chocokiro Trail takes about six days in total and it's a very, very isolated trail. Now, that being said, some of the isolation gives it some beauty. It has a lot of wonderful views as you take the trip. Usually it's a two-day entry and then about four days on the trail itself once you leave Chocokiro. But beyond that, if you want to see a couple of other videos of some people doing it, we haven't done it ourselves. But I know Craig Adams has done it and he had a wonderful little video and we'll definitely put it up in the description. Two other trails that you'll have the opportunity to hike if you want to see the Andes will be the Vilcambamba Trail and the Laris Trail. Now again, the only two trails that actually make it to Machu Picchu are the Inca Trail and the Salkentide Trail. Other than that, we mentioned Chocokiro and then like you said, Vilcambamba and Laris Trail. These trails themselves also have their own ups and downs. They have other sites they're going to see and you're going to be captivated no matter where you go. But you still have to look out for accessibility and the downsides to the Inca Trail are that it's just so populated. It's a touristy area and the trail itself is heavily traveled as a result of that. You have to plan very far in advance if you want to book these. As we start getting to Salkentide, you'll still have a reasonable number of people on Salkentide and Chocokiro, Vilcambamba, Laris are going to be less populated, allow you to still see the area. Perhaps if you get there and you didn't book ahead or you didn't have the opportunity, there's still plenty to see in the area. So do go look up these trails and I'm sure you'll find something wonderful on them. We haven't done them ourselves yet, but we've only been in Peru once also. So maybe next time. So that ends our short little episode on why you can't hike the Inca Trail on your own. What other alternatives you might have in the event that you can't get to the Inca Trail but you happen to be in Peru. And if you liked this video, leave some comments below. Give us a thumbs up and we'll see you on your next adventure.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rbDoYbq6HQ", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

But Gary just refuses to stay still and let Barry pour it into his drink. So they lose bad start. I don't know why you thought you should move there. So how do you say Merry Christmas in Spanish? Those kids were like, no idea dare those guys to double double dare you back now. Physical channel. Felice Navidad. So Gary's got a strap on the safety goggles again. He's got to put another cup on top of his head. And he's got to catch water while playing every single instrument nails that one bangs out the drums right here gets the symbols a little sad monkey going on. Don't get the two pay wet two pays getting way too wet fill up the water while you're moving so much. Okay, dude, stop moving. They got it three seconds to spare. And this is where Gary has a real big realization like I just thought I would take my kids to Disney World. And we'd have a good time. And I didn't know I'd have to become a big monkey. What country celebrates Boxing Day? It's Australia. These guys have no idea they have 100 points there. Right. Now if they say double dare, that means it becomes an 80 point question. This was a turning point in the game. And the razzle kids just double their $80 physical physical challenge. Their parents win this they win and they got to throw eggs and crack them on their heads basically foreplay for the Griswolds. Look at that. Oh, yeah, toss me another egg, honey, toss me another they wanted to do more even after they won. Now these guys need to get two questions, right? A math question. Don't blame them for not getting this 19 incorrect. Fuck that. And then miracle on 34th Sturt's Macy's they say blooming deals. No, gosh, Macy's. So the Griswolds went what a comeback. The double dare really got him. Now the parents have to go on the obstacle course. And they do pretty well. I'm not gonna lie. Crush it down the slide. He climbs up there. She goes on the bicycle doesn't use the pedals at all gets a little shower he rips open the present. They're just finding flags left right this gets a little scary because I don't know if this is a dive or fall or I don't know what it she almost clips her head on the side there. It just doesn't look good is what it is that guy in the back was like, Oh my god, she's gonna hurt herself. She doesn't which we're all happy about. But she is a little late to the flag here. Mark basically had a pusher little two foot rope swing hamster wheel they think they've got the victory but they don't they actually lost the last one. But the good news is Gary and Barry razzle and their kids got crushed. Good job by the Griswolds.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5R0OxETWECA", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

It is a nexus of intersecting dimensions within which time and space behave without pattern or reason. It becomes possible for a Voyager to fold these barriers in upon themselves to transpose himself from one location in both time and place to another. This drives the Dranarchy to seek out the powers of manipulation within the twisted waves of Ether. The Void could be reckoned akin to an infinite ocean, and to sail upon those dimensional waves, the Twilight Kin would need ships especially designed and constructed to survive the voyage and protect their crews. From within, they summon and command Nightstalkers. By their dark magic, the veil between reality and the Void could be drawn back to allow such manifestations to appear. These loathsome horrors were now at the Twilight Kin's command. With these powers, they seek the Great Return. With a firm goal driving them on, the Twilight Kin have sacrificed all empathy and morality. For them, everything is secondary to the realization of the Great Return. The transition of the lureleth as it was into Panathor's present.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5riBZ4xSZEU", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }
UCzntthQN6ZF01rRRWikcmmQ	30 Mar 2016: Disks	Introduction to disks and the basics of stable storage.	[ "operating systems", "disks", "HDD", "SSD" ]	2016-03-30T21:12:02	2024-02-05T16:47:39	2,914	5RK0wZlHpg4	Hello? Down here we're discussing motivation. It's a very fancy looking theoretical flyer down here about motivation. It has graphs, figures, diagrams, arousal theory, that sounds interesting. If you need some motivation right down here. Free motivation. Alright, so today we are launching into the third sort of unit of the class. This is on. Oh, maybe we are. Maybe we're having issues with this again. There we go. Okay, so today we're going to start talking about disks and stable storage. So of all the, so we talked about the CPU, we've talked about memory, now we're on to kind of the third big part of the system. Disks are probably the place where I would argue there's been the most sort of radical change within your lifetimes and my lifetime in terms of the storage hierarchy. You know, we have more cores than we used to. Memory technologies are a little bit different although fundamental sort of properties of memory are pretty much the same. But with disks, you know, the move that's going on right now from spinning disks to flash really changes a lot about how the operating system interfaces with those devices. We're going to talk about hard disk drives in this class and spinning disks and that's mainly because there's 40, 50, 60 years of really beautiful important work on file system design that, you know, is useful for you as a software developer to think about and learn from. However, you know, it's worth pointing out that flash drives are making a lot of this work obsolete or at least allowing us to rethink a lot of this work. So let's keep that in mind as we go along. Assignment three is due a week from Friday. There's motivation down here if you need it. Hopefully assignment three is motivation enough. Please, you know, like I pointed out, the first part of assignment three is not necessarily that difficult. Please don't use that an excuse to wait to get started. Instead, get it done and then you can move on to the other parts. So we also opened up the leader boards today so those are now publicly visible. If you, I posted on discourse about this, if you have tried to make a submission visible and it is not visible, it is possible that your partner is the problem. We're going to try to make this a little bit more clear. In order for your submission to show up on the leader board, if you have a perfect score, both you and your partner have to allow it on some level, either anonymously or sort of fully anonymously. So again, Yee Hong is working on making that a little bit more obvious in cases where you don't see your submission and you're wondering why. Okay. Any questions on VM before we go on? This is it. Yeah. Okay. Does anyone remember when I promised that we would have the midterm grades back? Two weeks from last Friday. Yes. So tax day, I guess. Is that true? No, April 8th. So I think it's the same day as the assignment three. What's that? I don't know about you. I have to pay taxes. Yeah, if it's not tax day, it's April 8th. That's our target for the midterm grading. Ali, are we on target for the midterm grading? Ali says we are. Okay, great. Yeah. So that's when we'll have the midterms back. We return, we give you guys your midterm back and you hopefully will come and get it and take it away forever. We're going to scan all the midterms before we return them. So we already have the original. So please come get your midterm, you know, burn it, cut it into little pieces, whatever you want to do, frame it. I don't know what you want, whatever you want, but please come and get it and take it away. You're welcome to wander off. And at that point, the complaint period will officially begin. All right, good question. Any questions about VM? All right, so let's talk about something new. Disks. So when we start talking about disks, I mean, a lot of you are probably familiar with this. You know, we talk about, so stable storage is the general catch term that describes both and variety of different technologies that we're going to be talking about. That's just storage that doesn't lose its contents when it's powered off. That's a way to, you know, hold those contents for a long period of time. There's two primary types of stable storage that we're going to talk about. And, you know, one is sort of the past and the other is the future. Hard disk drives. Hard disk drives, and we have some fun videos to watch today, but hard disk drives store data on a magnetic medium and move. So that's the big thing. So the way that hard drives, spinning disks, magnetic hard drives, retrieve data is by, is by moving. They spin the platters, they move things around. That's how you get data on and off of them. And that makes them, from a computer science perspective, fairly interesting. Flash drives, on the other hand, are what are known as solid state drives. Has anyone ever taken a part of flash drive? Opened up the case? It's really funny because, like, they're in a form factor that's designed around the old spinning disks, right? So spinning disks, if you take us, has anyone opened up a spinning disk before? So if you open up a spinning disk, there's stuff in there, right? It's pretty much, you know, if you get like a two and a half or three and a half inch drive, it's full. There's a bunch of stuff inside. If you open up the equivalent flash drive, it's like empty. It's mostly air. And there's a couple of chips sort of tucked away in one corner on a board, and that's it. So the, the solid state drives store things in what's known as non-volatile memory. There's some caveats and some consequences of this. But still today, and it's actually pretty impressive how the gap has shrunk. So I'll ask you guys in a sec if you can sort of predict this. Hard disk drives, spinning disks, are still cheaper than flash drives. And they also tend to be, because of that reason, they tend to be larger. They're cheaper in terms of price per gigabyte for capacity. So organizations that are doing large amounts of storage typically do sort of warm storage on spinning disks simply because it's still more cost effective. Now here's the interesting thing. So back when I started teaching this class, that was 2011. The difference was about an order of magnitude. So back then, about 10 cents per gigabyte for a hard disk drive, versus about a dollar for a solid state drive. Anyone know what that number is today? Anyone priced out disks recently? Want to pick a guess? Yeah. Quarter to a dollar, okay. So that that would indicate that it's shrunk to kind of a factor of four. I guess the question is, in this was projected for 2012, it was going to be an order of magnitude difference in price per capacity. Anyone want to guess what that is now? Yeah. 15 cents, okay. That's actually pretty close. What is it for the hard disk drive? What's the ratio here? How much more am I paying per unit capacity for a solid state drive? Pretty close. Yeah, so it's about 7 cents to 15 cents. So we're only talking about a factor of two. So go out and buy a solid state drive, because it's worth it. But this number is shrunk quite a bit, so this is pretty interesting. I don't know enough about the EE underlying these things to understand what's driving these trends. But it's certainly quite interesting that you're seeing a very, in a relatively short amount of time, a pretty significant narrowing in the gap. It is no longer prohibitively expensive to buy large solid state disk drives. And the performance that you can get from those drives in certain cases is much, much better than you would get from a spinning disk. How many people have a computer with a spinning disk in it still? Okay, how many people have a mobile device with a spinning disk in it? Oh, man, you guys are playing with fire. Get rid of that thing. It's going to break, trust me. I went through at least seven hard drives on my laptop when I was in graduate school. All right, so and when we talk about now some of the file system designs we're going to talk about, and more mature file system designs, we're still frequently designed around the capabilities and limitations and the problems associated with spinning disks that we're going to introduce today. But if you're confused about what we're talking about, please ask, because there's pretty significant differences with the new technology. Okay, so I talked a little bit about this, but you know, why bother? Right? I mean, this is a class, you know, maybe when when the department introduces the modern operating systems course, they'll stop talking about, about flash drives. But I think that it's worth. I mean, first of all, there's still a gazillion of these hard disk drives around. They're still out there in the world, they're still in active use. If you are really interested in just capacity per unit dollar, the hard disk drives are still a big win. And if you're a company like, I don't know, Dropbox, for example, that has to provision terabytes upon terabytes of storage, that multiplier of two is actually kind of important. For you, when you buy your laptop, maybe you're willing to pay another hundred bucks to get a flash drive. But, but for them, that's really an issue of sort of the bottom line. Why would, you know, get so, so let's just presume for now that flash drives perform a lot better, they're a little bit more expensive. What would be an application where you might still want to use a spinning disk? Yeah. Oh, that's an interesting question. Yeah. Okay. So, so here's another question. Do flash drives last forever? No, negative. Yeah. In terms of flash drives wear out, they wear out in a different way than hard disk drives. But they still, yeah, so flash drives are not forever. But, but what's an, you know, what's an example of a type of data that you might think would be okay to store on, on a hard disk drive? Yeah. Yeah, but I mean, in, in generally, we think of sort of cold or warm storage, things that don't get touched very often. What's an example of this from your own life? Give me some piece of data that you have stored in the cloud that is probably completely okay to move on to a spinning hard drive. Yeah. Your textbooks. I like that. That's a good answer. Pictures, maybe. I mean, what about the emails that you sent in 2010? You could still find those, right? I mean, Google still has those, or whoever you use as a cloud email provider probably still has them, but they're not hot. They're not stuff that you're looking at often. And so, to some degree, the story that we're starting to see emerge with the introduction of flash is it provides an interesting additional tier in the storage hierarchy, where if we have stuff that's really hot and is accessed really often, it might make sense in certain cases when I have performance constraints to move that stuff into flash, whereas stuff that's sort of coldish can be easily moved into, into spinning disks, where it's accessible. It's a lot more accessible than something like tape, which is super slow to access. But, you know, it's not, there's not a performance bottleneck when you're talking about really ancient email. It's kind of impressive to me to think about the fact that emails that I will probably never read again are sitting on some computer in one of Google's data centers. That is just a total waste of space. I'm just, I'm sorry. But there they are, right? It's kind of interesting. So, hierarchical file systems is the time that we talk about. How many people still organize their files on their computer? In like a, okay, now we all want to be organized, so I understand that. But like, how many of you have ever written a computer program to reorganize your files on your computer? Okay, there we go. See, you guys, the other ones, you're not really that organized, right? So, so yeah, I mean the idea of moving things, you know, you know, accessing stuff through folders. When you guys want to play a song on your computer, do you navigate to the folder where the song is located and double click on the mp3 or whatever it is? How many people do that? Yeah, okay. What do the rest of you do? Just don't listen to music? That's cool. Let's say. How do you find it? Okay, let's presume that you have some music somewhere that you can call up. How do you locate it? How do you, how do you get at it? You search, you start typing in the, you misspell the artist's name badly and Google's smart enough to figure it out. It's like, okay, here's which one. Yeah, so search is really changing the way that people interact with data. And if you listen to certain, you know, prognosticators, it's all ruining our minds and we can't think clearly anymore because all we have to do is like type of badly worded sentence into Google and it just is like, oh, here's what you want. But, but you know, the fact is like all these search tools like spotlight and, you know, any search tool that's built into apps that you guys use, these are still built on top of hierarchical storage. And hierarchical storage, hierarchical namespaces still form the basis of file systems that are out there in the world. I don't know how long that's going to be the case. I mean, this stuff changes very slowly. We're talking about data that's going to be around for decades. It's unlikely that Google is going to be really excited about a big project to move all of their completely cold and useless data onto some new file system who cares, right? It works, it's there, it doesn't matter. But there are sort of new trends emerging in this space and I think search is one of them. But fundamentally I mean understanding the future in this case always is always used to study what we've done and understand the past, where things came from. Because I think there are probably design quirks about file systems and storage that are inherited from spinning disks that will be with us for a long time if not for. And we will talk about flash. I'll probably add maybe a lecture this year on just entirely on flash storage. And the goal here just to keep this, you know, keep this in mind is to talk about the system design principle because while hard drives have changed, the principles of hard drives that make file system design very exciting. So there's a lot of work on file system design for decades and there's a variety of reasons for that. But one of the reasons for it is that there are things about hard drives that are difficult to deal with. And those things aren't gone. There may be hard drives don't fail in the same way that they used to, but other types of systems fail in the same way. And so it's still useful to talk about this. Okay, so let's talk about spinning disks. As you, if you've taught, I should really start doing this. I mean, I think when I took this lecture, Margot, she brought like a hard disk to class, right? So this is the one part of the computer and it's kind of, I mean, that's the kind of thing that's sad about flash. I mean, if you take apart a computer, it's not very interesting. It's like, there's, I don't know, some blob of integrated circuits over there and there's another blob over there and who knows when anything does, right? I mean, and the processor's cool, right? But of course, you're going to touch that and then it's going to like bonk out, you'll be out 200 bucks. You know, you can kind of see that, you can kind of see memory. But disks were the one thing that was kind of fun to take apart because there's moving parts in there and, you know, it's a little, little sort of, there's stuff that goes on. So where data is actually stored, these are called platters. Platter is coated with some sort of magnetic medium. Data is written in red to and from these, these platters. That's what actually, that's where the bit of data is actually located. The spindle, so the way that the spinning disks work is they have a bunch of platters, they all rotate together and the rotation is part of how we navigate to a particular spot on disk. And we'll talk about this more later. And then the, most of the, the brains and most of the complexity here is in what's called the disk head. So the head is the sensor and actuator that is actually reading and writing data from the disk. The heads also move, so they move and that allows them to move from one side of the platter to the other. Okay, here's a diagram. Let's check this out. Platters, right, and there's a stack of these. There's not just one. Modern disks would have, I don't know, eight, ten, twelve, a whole stack of these. Each one of them has some amount of capacity on it. They're rotating around the spindle. Here's, and the heads are on this arm, right? This arm swings back and forth, which is what allows the heads to reach any spot on disk. So through some combination of moving the head and allowing the disk to spin underneath the heads, I can reach any part of the disk that I would need to, need to reach. Just make sense? Many people have seen this before. Okay, cool, great. How do you get to other platters? Great question. Anyone know? Yeah. Okay, let's, anyone want to guess which one it is? Yeah, so what that arm is actually like a rake, right? So there's heads on at least the top and probably actually, so each platter has two sides, so there's actually heads facing every platter all the way up and down. But the whole head, typically on, you know, modern sort of inexpensive disks, I'm pretty sure you have one arm that moves a whole bunch of heads. Now that has consequences, right? Because all the heads are in the same position on the disk at one, at any given time. So if I have, if I have some data, so that, that affects what the heads can read at the same time. Does that make sense? Yeah, I think there's a, let me, okay. So we talk about places on the disk. So the disk has actual physical locality, which is kind of interesting, right? I mean, we talk about memory. You think about physical memory as having some sort of address space from low address to the high address. But you don't think like, I mean, maybe you do. It would be interesting to be able to figure out like what stick of actual physical memory is this address on. But we usually don't care. With the disk we do, because it affects a lot of how performance on disks works and how we design file systems. So the track is, you know, one, think of like a race track or the track is a lane on a race track that runs all the way around the platter. The track is what I can read without moving the heads. So if all I do is let the disk spin, I can read all the data on one track. So a sector resembles something like this. So this is like a slice of pie. And the cylinder is one track dropped through all the platters. And here's a diagram. So the track is the yellow part. The sector is this. This is not a arrow. This is an actual slice. So that's one sector on the disk potentially. And the cylinder is a little hard to think about, but it's almost like a can that's been dropped all the way through the disk. Does that make sense? The cylinder is interesting because that's all the data I can read from the entire disk without moving the heads. Just letting the disk spin. Okay, so we have some fun videos to watch today. Because this move, right? I mean you could make a video of memory and use, but it's not very interesting. Whereas at disk it's alright. So let's check this out. Alright. Free advertising for whoever this guy is. So we've got platters, right? Spindle. This is the head. And again if you rotated this you would see that this head has identical arms. Sorry, the arm has identical sort of components that are in between each track. Sorry, in between each platter. There we go. Oops. There we go. So that's cool, right? Now you know what made that noise, right? So I suspect what the noise is is actually the heads stopping or you know getting to one point and turning around, right? So this is fairly inexplicable. This is clearly a Windows machine because I'm serious because deleting a folder should not take this much time. It's not like it was just really one thing you have to do and then it's kind of gone, right? But anyway, okay, here we go. Oh, sorry. We're still going. We're still deleting that folder. I'm sure there's like icon, like you know there's an animation going on, like things are flying to the trash. So this is kind of cool, right? So this is a copy-paste. Now here you can really see locality. One of the files is over here on the disk, literally located there. The other one is over here and you can, if you watch carefully, you can see the heads essentially picking up a little bit of data on one side and dropping it on the other. Oops, sorry. Alright, so now we're doing a quick format. Alright, questions about this? It's kind of cool. Yeah. Oh, good question. Yeah. What fails? All sorts of things can fail. I mean the magnetism I suspect is usually not the problem, right? The disk has physical parts. This is why spinning disks, for a long time, I mean particularly on mobile devices, spinning disks were a serious and problematic cause of failure. This is one of the reasons why flash drives are so great, particularly if you have a laptop. I mean it used to be if you dropped your laptop, you set a little prayer. Sometimes you were lucky. Sometimes actually you'd pick it up and you'd have about 20 seconds to say goodbye. That was it. And then something would freeze and that would be it. And we'll talk about why that happens in a second. So usually, now once you start dropping the disk or doing other things to it, all sorts of things can go wrong. But the physical parts of the disk are usually what fail. So the and when we start talking about file systems, just always have to keep this in mind. Discs move and that really sets them apart from everything else we studied. And that movement causes failures, it causes things to wear out, it causes delays that are different in computer time from the other delays that we've talked about. The delay to move a physical object is always way way way bigger than to like throw some electrons across a bus. And that starts to impact how file systems are designed, caching all sorts of other things. Yeah and that causes, that's really what caused disks to be slow. The old spinning disk was the fact that there was things moving. Now if you want to get something done fast, don't move. Like don't move physically and you'll go a lot faster. The other thing is sort of how disks are integrated into the rest of the system. So the things that we've been talking about before, the CPU and memory, these things are really tightly integrated into the OS. Discs less so, right? How can you tell? What is the kind of hint that you might have if you use a modern computer system that the disk is a little bit more separated from the operating system? Well I have two different technologies, so that's a good point. I mean it's important that those two technologies expose the same interface. But where do I see differences in software? Yeah. Okay so that's, yeah I mean disks show up on your computer as devices, which is, but again it's sort of a hint at what's going on here. But what's, where do I see the difference? Right? I mean maybe let me put it another way. So with the CPU, a lot of the fancy stuff that goes on in CPUs is done internally. So if you think about things like out-of-order execution and pipelining and all sorts of things like that, that's stuff that the CPU does without the operating systems help at all. Memory, the OS is really heavily involved in providing this address space abstraction that's very common. On the disk there's a lot of software involved and again how can you tell? How many people have installed a Linux or an Ubuntu type system before? Okay. You have to make a choice at some point. Maybe you didn't notice. Did you choose something about the type of memory management abstractions you wanted to provide when you install the operating system? You did? What choice did you make? No, okay sorry. No, the memory. So did you make any choices related to the virtual memory subsystem? Yeah okay that's not a big deal, right? It's not like, it was like what type of virtual memory system would you like? Did it ask you what type of you know schedule or did you like? No, you just got the schedule that was built in. You got the virtual memory system that was built in but you made a choice which he pointed out which is what file system do you want, right? File systems are software and I think that's the other reason why they're fun, right? They're fun to talk about is because we have a lot of choice. You guys could go out and build your own file system and you could integrate it with Linux pretty easily if you want to. In fact, there are tools that allowed you to build file systems in software, right? Above the OS interface so you can actually something called fuse which allows you to implement a file system entirely, sorry not in software, that's clear in user space. You don't even have to have kernel privileges. You can just take a file, like an area on disk and build your own file system there and go wild in case you want to build a file system. That would be cool, yeah? Like open, when I open a file it plays a YouTube video, right? So yeah, I mean like the disk, the underlying disk interface and abstraction will talk about. There's not a lot there, it's basically just chunks of data. What you do with that in software and how you build a file system on top of it is really up to you, yeah? So what I mean is that the interface that people use to find things, so 30 years ago if you wanted to find something on your computer, you either opened up some sort of nasty gooey and started clicking on folders and you're like oh where did I put that letter? I'm going to look oh it's my letters folder and it's in this whatever. Now people don't do that, right? They just open spotlight or whatever the dog thing on Microsoft is called. I don't think it's the dog anymore, whatever they call. And you start typing like letter and then it shows you a bunch of search results. It's built in index basically. To some degree I would argue a lot of computers just have no idea where things are anymore. You open up your Microsoft Word editor, you click New document, you start typing something, you click Save, you close it. I bet most people could not find that file on their computer if they tried, right? But they know how to find, they know how to locate it which is either they open Microsoft Word again they say oh recent files or something or they search or whatever. So just the way that people locate things is different, right? The location. Now again under the covers there is a hierarchical file, something that this is all built on top of. But you can imagine getting rid of that. You can imagine having a file system that you couldn't browse in the same way hierarchically but you could still search. I mean to some degree this is almost like that. Anyone ever remember using Yahoo? Ever used Yahoo? Back when they had, so Yahoo had this heroic effort to essentially build a hierarchical quote-unquote kind of topic-based file system on top of the internet. You know it was like topic, subtopic. I mean they tried to classify everything. It was very Java-like. It's like we must have a type hierarchy. And Google was like no way. Who cares? Search, right? Like you just put in your search terms. Google is not trying to build this like rigid hierarchical structure. They're just trying to help you find things. So maybe that embodies the difference. It's just how people locate things. Yahoo thought somebody would locate, if they're looking for computer help, they would click on the computers section and then they would click on the help section and then they would click on the Microsoft Windows section and they would click on whatever, right? So it's just a different interface, a different way of locating things. And the web is really what's driving this, right? I mean Google is really sort of that that functionality is really what's changing a lot of how people interact with their computer. And I would argue maybe for the better, unless you're one of the people who thinks that we're all stupider because we can use Google to search for things. I guess. I don't know. To me that seems weird. We can find out a lot more than we used to. So I don't know how that makes it stupider. Okay, so I already pointed this out. I mean because this move we do a lot of work at the file system level to try to hide these latencies. And there's tricks upon tricks upon tricks. Some of them feel like hacks now that are all based around this idea. And that's what's so interesting about flash because flash doesn't move, flash doesn't have the same locality constraints. So to some degree flash comes in and just says I don't care about this problem any more. And all the file system people are like we've been solving this problem for 40 years and we're so good at it. And yet gone. All this locality stuff is gone. But it's still fun to talk about. And again clearly moving things around is slow. So accessing the byte of memory fast, moving the head across the disk. Now you saw that head. That looked fast. Right? But keep in mind you're a slow human. So in the time that it took that head to move from one part of the disk to the other, I just got like a gigabyte from my RAM chip easily or something like that. It just doesn't compare. Disks also fail. So one of the fun, some of the fun and I would argue more lasting contributions of file system design have to do with failure and figuring out ways to recover from failures, anticipate failures, things like this. Disks can fail. So this is a fun fact. And there's an interesting paper maybe we'll read. We're getting to the part of the class where I start to assign research papers for you guys to look at. Little ones that are fun. About five years later there was a group that did this really fun study. So they bought ten, or I don't know what it was, twenty identical hard drives. Okay? Quote unquote identical. They were by the same maker, same manufacturer, same vendor ID, same lot number. You know they might have come off the factory line like next to each other. What they found is that there were huge performance differences between these discs. And a lot of it has to do with sort of manufacturing defects that disc cover up. So in a lot of cases spinning discs have, they come with bad sectors. They come with parts of the disc that don't work. And I do not know why this is. I'm sure this is just some sort of manufacturing process problem. But instead of, this is kind of clever, instead of trying to make the manufacturing process perfect what the vendors do is they just say as long as the disc knows what parts are bad and avoids those, doesn't let you use them, then it's okay. So discs do these checks where they figure out, okay that sectors gone, I'm not using that anymore. And this can happen over time as well. So in certain cases you can have sectors that sort of fail. And again I have no idea why this is but it happens and discs will kind of remap things to make those sectors go away. But this can cause some of those performance differences. All right. And discs can fail all at once. So that's kind of like slow decline. Now when we talk about flash, flash can also fail in this slow burn sort of sense. Where it turns out after a long period of time, flash has a certain number of times that it could read, it can erase, sorry, it can basically write a particular part of the flash drive. And once you exceed that number there's a probability that those will fail. At which point that chunk of the flash drive is gone. And so we'll come back to this when we talk about flash. But flash chips do all sorts of funny things to try to make that problem go away. So discs can also fail in these ugly ways. So a head crash, you saw those heads as you know they were you know flying back and forth across the disc. In order to improve density, those heads sit like, I don't know, it's an engineer number. It's like a nanometer or something above the surface of the disc. They are really really really close to the platter. And of course it makes sense, you know the farther away I am the harder it is to read or write data to it. In the closer I am I can write smaller and smaller and smaller tracks which makes the overall capacity of the disc larger. Unfortunately if I, I can't touch the platter. The platter is moving quite quickly. My heads have like little sharp edges on them. And what can happen if I do, if I do touch the platter, this is what's called a head crash. And this just will wipe out a disc. Right? I mean this basically ruins the whole thing. And this is I'm sure what I did to like disc after disc when I was in college. Just by dropping them. So here we go. Let's watch another video. YouTube is full of these. Can anyone see it? Can anyone see the problem? It's so funny. It almost looks like a racing stripe. You're like oh that's a fancy hard drive right? I didn't know they can. Does that make it go faster? You know like a someone told me the other day if I had a racing stripe to my car, 10% faster immediately. Right? Can anyone, can anyone see the problem? Yeah, like this is not good. That's not, again, that's not a decal. That's where he'll explain it. Oops. Sorry. Notice here, notice that this only occurred in a small area of the platter creating a cylindrical scratch. Yeah, so this is also kind of interesting because of the fact that that discs are so kinetic. They do a little bit of work. I mean this is not some sort of advanced filtration system. This is like a little piece of gauze or something. But they try to avoid getting particles in here. Because you can imagine if I have a little piece of something hard and it ends up inside the disc case and starts bouncing around. It could do some damage. Right? There we go. How many people do backups? Okay, thank you. I'll see you get, by the way, gets a great backup tool. Okay, so we're going to talk about RAID later, which is a cool way to bring multiple discs together to basically both improve performance and reliability. But there's also a fair amount of fault tolerance that's done at the file assistant level. And there's a bunch of, again, I think they're enduring contributions from the file system community. There's several that have to do with failure handling. Okay, so now let's talk about the fact that discs are slow. So disc fail. I'll talk a little bit about that. Because discs are slow, they're often the part of the system that everything else is waiting on. If I have to read or write from a file, if I have to actually do some IO. And this is still true, even when I'm using flash. I mean flash is faster, but it's still way slower than memory, way slower than registers or first or second level caches. And so the file system does a lot to try to hide this. And in this case, the operating system is really intimately involved. So go back to the processor example. The out of order execution the processors do to try to hide memory latencies is totally opaque to the operating system. All the operating system knows is that instructions go in one end and come out the other. And they come out in order. What the processor is doing in internally? No clue. It's too fast. It's happening too fast. With the file system on the other hand, sort of the difference in speed between the memory subsystem and the files and the disc is something that the OS is very involved in handling in software. And so there's a bunch of things that we can learn here. We use the fact that all these system design, classic system design techniques have been applied to this problem. You know, wait to do things. And I just set this. So the OS is really much more involved in hiding these latencies and so there's more for us to learn here about some of the classic approaches to doing this. So let's talk about what's slow about reader writing to disk. So it's a brief primer in terms of what you actually have to do to read or write to disk. So the first thing I have to do is tell the disk what to do. Disk is a device so there's some protocol I have to use to speak to it and tell it for example I have this buffer of data and I want you to write it at this point to this address on the disk. And at this point we're not talking about file systems. There's no notion of a file name or anything else. This could be anything. We'll come back and talk about the interface that disks expose but it's quite simple. Essentially an array of chunks of data of a fixed size like 256 or 512 bytes. So I tell it what to do. The drive then has to move the heads. Now this is simplified somewhat. There's more there's buffering that goes on here as well. The drive has to move the heads to that location. Then there's something called settle time which I love which is essentially the time it takes for the heads to stabilize. So the heads have been on a very exciting journey from one side of the disk to the other. And they made that journey as fast as possible but when they get over to the other side they're kind of like shaking back and forth a little bit. So you have to kind of wait for them to stabilize so they're centered on the track that you're trying to read or write from. And then there's a rotation time where the platters actually have to rotate the position where the data is located. The disk reads this internally and then transfers the data back to the OS or back to the system over some kind of bus. Yeah. I have no idea. Small. Right. Yeah. Small as possible. So the capacity increases that we've seen in disks which I have a slide to show you in just a second are really the function of just being able to make tracks smaller and smaller and smaller and to make the heads smaller and smaller and smaller and to make everything more precise. So in the past you've had much larger disks. The tracks were a lot wider. You know you couldn't stabilize the heads is well enough. So I think there's a lot of kind of cool electrical and mechanical engineering that went into being able to make the tracks and also materials engineering. Right. To make the tracks so so small. Obviously the problem is at some point if they're too if they're too narrow there's not enough magnetic material to really hold the information. When they're too narrow and too close together I also have interference. Let's think about it. And again I'm way out of my league here. But imagine you're the head. You're like holding a magnet over the disk and like magnetizing various parts and un-magnetizing other parts. But there's two other tracks right there. And so those two tracks are too close to me. I end up actually spreading a little bit of that over into other regions. And this happens naturally. But there's enough sort of redundancy in how the disk is used in order to prevent it from being a problem. But I certainly don't want to erase data on a neighboring track. So over time when we looked at improving spinning disks. So one of the things that happened is capacity went up because tracks got smaller. Internet connect speeds got much much faster. What about the seek time? So the seek is actually moving the head from one part of the disk to the other. How much do you think that improved over the past 20 years? Moore's law, like that? Not so much. So this just doesn't is not improving that rapidly. And there's just fundamental physical constraints here that come into play. Rotation speeds don't end up, you know, maybe has anyone ever been tempted to buy like a 100,000 RPM disk? I don't think those exist actually. I think those would like, I don't know, they might be unstable and fly out of control and shatter everywhere or something. But it turns out that the rotation latency is just not the problem. By the time I get to the track, waiting for the disk to rotate around just turns out to not take very long compared with the amount of time it's taking me to get there and stabilize the heads. So this just turns out to not be a huge component of overall speed. So over the past 30 years, there's interesting trends going on, right? So on one hand, you had Moore's law that was making processors and other parts of the system a lot faster. And on the other hand, you had disks and there were two problems with this. First of all, disks were not getting faster very quickly. But people kept buying bigger and bigger and bigger disks. I mean, it's it's sort of shocking. I mean, I know that processors are faster now. But the amount of disk space that my computer has now compared to what it had when I was in college is really amazing to me, right? I mean, in college, I bought a 20 gigabyte hard drive and I thought that was huge. That was like my big hard drive, you know. Now it's like I have like two terabyte drives that are an array to raise. Why not, you know? And you know people are recording videos and of their stupid cats and taking pictures and like thousand P resolutions so that they can be blown up the size of like the side of a building or whatever. Like I don't know what people are using all the storage for, but clearly they are because people kept buying these things, right? So here's just let me finish with like two two graphs. So here's a fun graph. This is showing from 84 until 06. So it ends relatively recently sort of the progression of a couple of different types of disk technologies. These are the three and a half inch drives that you typically find in desktop machines. These are the two and a half inch drives that you find more commonly in laptops. These are some of the smaller micro drives that you were seeing in things like iPod. And so this is a log scale. So this is capacity. So capacity is going up exponentially over time. On the other hand, here are the performance. This is performance in terms of the the amount of data I can get on or off the disk. Now this looks like this kind of the only problem is this is not a log scale. So this is linear. So over the same period of time, you had roughly three orders of magnitude improvements in capacity, but only two in speed. So I've got more and more stuff on the disk and yet the ratio between disk performance and disk capacity is changing. The other thing of course that's happening around the same time are processors in memory are getting way, way, way faster. So this ratio really defines a lot of what we're going to talk about over the next couple of weeks. Okay. So I will pick up here on Wednesday. Wait, it is Wednesday. Friday, Friday. I'll see you guys on Friday.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RK0wZlHpg4", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Look at that. Like the paint doesn't even come out Yeah, that's that's the point. They're dry paints. Did you read the bottle? No, I mean I just threw them all away, so Right. Okay. Sure. That's definitely a good idea. Anyways, what are you working on man? What are you painting? I think I'm gonna paint another death guard. Oh good more death guard You mean like that thing you robbed me of a crystal brush with a few years ago like that kind of death guard? Yeah, I mean, what can I say the judges just identified the better painter, so I See I see that's what it was, huh? They identified the better painter. All right, John I see how this is gonna be look. There's only one thing we can do here. Okay, you're the better painter We're gonna have to settle this We're gonna settle this the only way we can high noon internet Dry brush showdown The strict technomancer that is Vinci V. Let us get to the technique and learn it Vinci V style Welcome to another hobby cheating video and as you saw this one's gonna be a little different So Ninjahn and I decided to do a little challenge with each other To see who could paint a better manager just using dry brushes now Dry brushes and dry brushing are often aligned as being something only for newbies or that's something that Display painters or high-end painters or I don't know pro painters or whatever stupid term you want to use look down on And I've always thought that's silly dry brushing is incredibly versatile as we're gonna see in this video So as I paint this emperors champion What I really want to show you is that this humble tool the dry brush comes in many different forms and can be used in many different ways so Let's get into it All right, so let's start out and actually talk about dry brushes they come in lots of different sizes some are more flat like these This is sort of the classic dry brush you often get from game companies Some have angles things like that, but they generally present a more flat face This is kind of the first dry brush most people have The other types of dry brushes around they have like large rounded tips These are often are makeup brushes or there's a specialty line from artists opus In either case They both have their different uses one thing I will say is don't buy gaming dry brushes Just go buy makeup brushes or cheap brushes. Don't overpay for a very simple thing Now since this is a dry brush only challenge Some of our very fine details, especially like things that need to be metallic present me some real challenges because if I get metal paint On things that it shouldn't be on it's gonna stand out So I'm actually just painting all the little steel stuff with metal first I'm also trying to work from the inside out Just hitting those tiny details and if I spill over like I did there with the red. I don't care I'm not gonna talk about paints those will scroll up in the top what I want to talk about here is techniques So here with the dry brush you notice I've worked almost all of my paint off like I mean I really wiped this on the paper towel And you'll notice that I'm just really grinding the paint in and that's the first thing I'll say when you're dry brushing one of the things you can do is simply Really get a lot lot lot less paint one of the things I usually see people go wrong with Especially people who are new in painting when they're dry brushing is they keep way too much paint on the brush It's fine. If you're doing some base coating type work like I'm doing here just to set the color for this Cloak to brown because I want to make it lighter and so I need to work it up So here it's fine to have a little bit more paint on the brush But often when you're trying to dry brush for fine detail or only hit edges you want to work a lot of paint off of that brush You'll see me use a combination of both flat and round dry brushes. We'll talk about why Here with the flats whenever I'm trying to do something That's a little more detailed that I want to catch just on the very very edges or using a more controlled fashion I'm using a flat dry brush because I can turn that sideways and use the flat edge of it to my advantage Effectively using it almost like a scraping tool to just scrape paint along the few raised surfaces that I want When I'm trying to do larger areas You'll usually see me go to the rounded brushes because there I have a lot more even application In both cases, I'm always wiping so much more of the paint off Then you think wipe until you think there's no paint left and then test on something like the back of your hand The natural ridges in your hand if you make a fist are the perfect place to test a dry brush For how much paint is going to come off and usually you'll be surprised You'll see how I'm using a dry brush much in the same way we would use layers here One of the cool things about dry brushing is that it can actually make blending really super easy Because if you just work up colors You'll naturally get some pretty organic blends each time I had less and less paint on the brush and each time I was using a brighter and brighter color Now you can also use dry brushes just to stipple or to edge highlight So you see here what I'm doing is a mix of both I drug very little paint across that leather hitting just the edges and then stippled in the middle to create a random pattern of wear Dry brushes don't have to simply move back and forth. You can also stab and dab like you see me often doing in this paint job Stabbing and dabbing is a perfectly fine use of a dry brush In fact the natural texture it provides can be very powerful You can use that to create things like some natural texture in metal or on things like armor You'll see people like Richard Gray actually use this quite a bit where he uses larger dry brushes to set down a base texture And then we'll sometimes layer paint or glaze over the top to somewhat soften it You still have the impression that it's not a perfect smooth surface and those little micro inconsistencies Create visual confusion that makes the blend look smoother than it is When the paint is applied completely Solidly on a layer. It's very easy to notice a break between one layer and the other When it's applied roughly with this sort of stippling motion like you see me using here or on the cloak It actually becomes very hard for your eye to distinguish inconsistencies in the paint layers because they're not even there's not a straight line between them There's a host of visual confusion that's tricking your eye into thinking it's much more much more smooth than it is You'll notice that I go back and forth between the stabbing and the swiping and that's really what dry brushing is stabbing and swiping and As I work smaller and smaller areas to build up my highlights You'll see how I never did a glaze or anything like that Of course, this is dry brushing only and yet even with whites I was able to build it up to a nice bright color and have it look rather smooth in its effect where I want it to Now a couple times I did get a little too much red or sorry white where I didn't want it onto my red symbol So I just went back and repaired that real quick again with almost no paint on the brush Now we're gonna start hitting the actual armor itself And there is no easier way to paint black armor than with some dry brushing By simply going over it with this light gray color I'm able to very easily pick out all of the edges and effectively edge highlight this guy in seconds now Note I'm using soft makeup brushes and as I mentioned earlier. Those are really the key Soft makeup brushes mean that you only deposit a very small amount of paint You can work it repeatedly Without getting any paint anywhere. You don't want it I want to jump in here in the middle and just say as you're watching this you're probably thinking It seems like you're going to a lot of effort in some steps when it would be easier to just use a different technique And that's exactly right because the nature of this challenge We had to stick to only dry brushes and dry brushing and that does create some fun limitations The point of dry brushing isn't to be used all the time like we're doing here. This is just a bit of fun Dry brushing is a tool a tool in your toolbox. It's a hammer It's a very valuable tool that doesn't mean you get it out every single time if you've got a screw You go get a screwdriver So don't try to emulate everything you see here. I'm probably working harder just for the purposes of this challenge But I hope you see all the different ways that this application that this brush that this technique Can be used and maybe integrate some of that in here Let's get back to the action. You see how as I continue to work the dry brush all over the figure I'm just getting all those edges and Because I'm always working in a motion where I'm not trying to hit every part of the miniature I'm basically working from the top down just as though I was almost zenithaling the thing basically with this One you see how little paint goes anywhere but the edge and two You notice how easy it is for me to create the impression of highlighted black armor I can however go back in with a darker color like I did here and dry brush in the opposite direction To control that shadow and tint it so by using this darker color and then working up or stippling I can actually then tint the armor of color in the same way I would with a glaze But I'm just doing it with a dry brush and it's a lot faster and a lot easier You just work with very very little paint now. I didn't want to get out my secret weapon this early But let's get into it The other thing to do with dry brushing is work on something dry dry pigment with a dry brush So here I'm using some straight black pigment to deepen my shadows I start by just applying a fair amount of it And then I use a brush that doesn't have any pigment to wipe it away and smooth it out Dry pigment is a fantastic tool with a dry brush You can actually just apply it push it into the miniature and then smooth it down It won't leave a whole lot on there But it'll leave enough to soft and soften the transition in the same way as a glaze that the best part is it's way easier Here I'm just doing some cleanup again You notice I'm using the flat dry brush here because I want to hit a specific area whenever I'm trying to be very precise It's time to get out the flat dry brush when I want to hit a bigger area a rounded tip works With the metallics I make sure to just go in and scrape them very very lightly There's very little metal paint on there And I want to leave some of the natural shadows of the matte paint to create my deep shadows With the other colors here where I want to hit the edges. It's the same trick as with the black So here I'm using this lighter brown and I'm just touching the edges and making sure that those details are popped Here I work with a very very very small dry brush, but effectively the same thing in the same motions When I want to create texture I start stabbing dabbing and moving the brush in random directions because then the pattern it leaves is Also random making it look very natural Working in shadows is as easy as taking a matte paint and then dry brushing it from below just like you saw me do with the armor Highlighting it is exactly the same thing again very little silver paint But I'm just taking it and very lightly touching it and pulling down from above The important part to remember here, and you're going to see it a lot as I work on the sword is Directionality matters One of the things you always want to be thinking about when you're dry brushing is what direction am I moving my brush? How is that angle and then whether I have a flat or a rounded brush going to interact with the surface? So as I work the sword you'll see not only do I work the sword only in a particular angle Notice how I only drag Horizontally across the sword and that's because I want those edges that are naturally sculpted to be catching the majority of paint as I create This non-metallic effect with a dry brush But also you'll see me rotate the flat brush to have more or less surface area of the brush touching the miniature This is another advantage of a flat dry brush versus a round one with the flat I can rotate it sideways and get a very thin working area effectively with the same color Creating a transition. So I started with a couple of swipes just all the way in an area Flip to the brush vertically and instantly I had a more tight highlight You can also edge highlight as you saw me do there just by dragging the side of your dry brush Now OSL effects are normally kind of a pain, but with a dry brush and dry pigment We can actually just easily create a simple blue glow down by this little Reliquary or whatever it is took some of that blue pigment worked it into the base of the thing and then worked it into the area around it Used and brush without any pigment to then soften that blue transition out and what we get is a nice soft blue glow in the shadows Once that's done I go back in with some steel and just very lightly dry brush over the metal to actually recreate the frame easy peasy So you can work back and forth when dry brushing to still create the same effect She would if you were being a lot more careful with a layer brush. It's just a lot faster The last thing to do is of course the base and this is pretty easy with the base I start with some dry paint dry. I'm sorry some dry pigment Scrape that all in get that brown up on his feet and up getting a little too much up there So I correct that but that's fine. So just tinting that all brown Work some up onto his cloak again. We want this guy to feel this is the embers champion, but he's on a crusade mission This is lengthy. It's tiring. It's exhausting. He's fought through the muck and the mire And the cool part is even though I got a little too much brown up there and softened some of my transitions I can just build them back in no problem I can also do some fun effects here with water. He's on an island. Let's say so with the dry brush This becomes incredibly easy To just of course pick out the texture on the base as well as create some nice color transitions in the water underneath Rocks and things like that. We all classically know are a perfect area for dry brushing and exactly where probably we most use it Never be too good to dry brush a rock that a miniature standing on. It's just the easiest effect and it looks great I can also go back to my stippling technique here where I'm just stabbing to create the effect of movement in the water Notice I don't want it to be super smooth I want there to be some kind of transitions and breaks and things like that because you can create texture You can create movement. You can create all those things just by the application of the brush So instead of trying to apply a smooth layer, which would actually be worse in this case I can just apply little stabs and dabs and create that transition When they work it in some red pigment and again pushing this up into the feet But especially in the shadows just to add more color to the lower parts of the miniature and some visual interest Dry brushing again with dry pigment. I've said it many times in this video But it really is a pleasure pigment is so easy to use to take a dry brush you get some dry pigment You shove it onto the miniature. There's no magic to this. It's the easiest thing in the world And that more or less has him ready to go I wanted to leave you with one final trick that isn't technically dry brushing I got a little bit of that red up onto his cloaks make it interesting, but I thought You know we said with the only brush work could be with a dry brush and that's fine, but we didn't say no cool water effects So I decided to get out some of my UV resin and have this guy standing on a little pond So I decided to create a little pool around him He's up on an island all alone and now we've got that nice transition of blue and red all over the miniature I thought hey, let's apply some of that UV resin You can smooth that out with a little brush or something similar once you've Gooped it on there, but it will self-level over a few minutes if you just let it sit there And then we just hit it with the UV light and it's good to go and with that That's gonna complete all the primary work on the miniature the last thing we got to do Black rim that base and there's no reason to switch from anything But a big dry brush for this one as we get in there and get that sweet sweet black rim on that many Mmm Always the best part and the greatest moment when you get to black rim that base Well, there you go. There's the finished model. I think he turned out pretty cool There's gonna be some pictures of him rolling here in just a moment Don't forget to go check out ninjans video. It's linked down in the description His channel if you're not already Give him a sub as well John is a truly great human being one of my best friends and just somebody I truly love And I thank him for offering to do this challenge it was a lot of fun and Honestly, I had a really great time painting this space green just with dry brushing It makes me think I could kind of do the whole black Templar army something like this Maybe with a few other techniques in there But thank you so much for watching if you liked this Hey, don't forget to hit that like button Subscribe for additional hobby cheating in the future.

Today is July 17th of Monday. What a great day it is today. Why? Because today is my 30th birthday, guys. Yes, I'm the big 3-0. My goodness, I'm getting up there in age. But it's great, guys. I gotta tell you, my life is grim. So, thankful for my life. Thankful for my wife, my three-year-old son, Edrick. They, you know, they're amazing. They are the reason why I get up every day and do what I do, guys. I'm also extremely thankful for my friends. I have the best friends that anybody can ask for. Thank you so much. I love you guys all. Thank you so much for standing by me and being my friend. Alrighty, guys. Today I did make a losing trade. I lost about 6%, guys. The markets aren't moving. It's a little frustrating, guys. And with that being said, I did come to realize a couple things. I learned two things. Two things that I learned today. You know that saying that you learn something new every day. That is definitely true with me. The first thing I learned is the setup only works when the markets are moving. That's so darn obvious, but I do have to tell myself that and just be honest, guys. And my strategy, my setup only works when the markets are actually moving. So with that being said, it sucks whenever the markets are absolutely flat, doesn't create any good opportunities to make money, good trades and whatnot. Two. The second thing I learned today about my strategy is I got invited to a webinar, much like the tax webinar that happened a couple days ago, several days ago. I got invited to this webinar. I thought it had to do with the New York Stock Exchange, about the S&P 500, the NASDAQ. Turns out it was a forex webinar. You know, forex is not my thing, nor do I ever want to trade it. But I stayed on the webinar just to hear what the presenter had to say. And while the presenter was talking, pulled up a chart of a currency pair, I don't know what that pair was, he pulled up the five-minute chart, and I noticed something interesting and tricky and familiar. I saw that the setup actually happened on that currency pair, and that led me to think what I was thinking last week. I don't want to change anything about my strategy, but I do want to look at possibly other stocks, high beta stocks, something that I can trade options with. I only want to trade options. I think the leverage that you have there is just absolutely unbeatable. You can't do any better than options when it comes to, you know, your return on investing, your leverage, and yada, yada, yada. So I took a look at Apple, guys, and then pulled it up. I highly suggest you pull it up. If you've been watching my channel and you know exactly how to set up my charts, pull up the 15, five, and one-minute chart, and you'll see something very familiar on that one-minute chart on Apple, guys. And my big announcement, guys, I just want to get straight to him. I am going to be picking two winners, guys. You don't have to wait until I have 100 subscribers to know my strategy. I will be picking two winners, and I'm going to show them everything. I'm going to show them the strategy, the indicators that I use, how I set up my charts, how I use those indicators to make money. The way I'm going to be picking these winners is subscribe to my channel. You have to be a subscriber on my channel. Just hit that subscribe button. It's that easy. Like and share my videos. Absolutely, guys. And also, shoot me an email with the subject line of I'm in. Tell me a little bit about yourself in that email. You don't have to go into, you know, great detail, but let me know, are you a beginner, are you experienced? You know, what's your level of knowledge in the stock market? Do you know what options are? You know, little things like that, that will help me out tremendously. Send that email to spyoptionstrading at gmail.com, guys. I'll put it somewhere here up down inside. I'll also put it in the description of this video. Again, just to recap, subscribe to my channel. Hit that subscribe button. Like and share my videos. And shoot me an email to spyoptionstrading at gmail.com with the subject line, I'm in. And I'll be picking two random winners. The deadline is going to be the 24th. One week from today, July 24th. I'll announce the winner on July 25th, that Tuesday, the following Tuesday. And I'll bear it all. We will set up a time. I'll get with the two winners. I'll set up a time that works for you and me. And it might be about 30 minutes long. I thought about it maybe an hour. We'll see. But it won't take an hour for me to show you everything that I know. The strategy is very simple. You know, anybody can do this. And that's one of my biggest things about starting this channel is you don't need these extravagant setups and tools and algorithms and whatnot. So it's really simple, guys. I promise you. So once again, hit that subscribe button down below to help me tremendously. Once I hit 100 subscribers, I will make tutorial videos of how I trade, guys. So thank you so much for watching. This will be a little bit of fun. Thank you so much for watching. We'll see you tomorrow.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5REIl2KDSgw", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

It's been tough, like to say the least, it's been tough. First it all started with the injuries and it actually never stopped with the injuries. It really didn't. Because those have continued throughout this entire season. But then COVID said, hey, hey Ravens, what's up big heads? What's going on y'all? I gotta make my appearance one more time. You know, I came through for y'all last year. We had a lot of fun. And you know what? It was so nice. I'm about to come back through twice. How about we do it again? Shall we? And the Ravens already, right now, they have, well, Chuck Clark, he just came off the COVID list. So shout out to him. Benjamin Victor, he came off the COVID list as well. But besides those two, oh, Tristan Colón Castillo, he came off too. So besides those three, the Ravens have so many players on the COVID list. So many. And now they got another one in Tyler Huntley. They had said that yesterday, Tyler Huntley, he was feeling sick. And I was like, oh boy, here we go. But then a D. King Cabawa, she said, hey, no, no, no, no, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. It's not COVID. And we were all like, because we was scared. I was just like, oh my goodness. And I was like, okay, maybe Tyler Huntley got that little, that Florida sickness. So sometimes our stomach will start hurting or something. And it just, it ain't the day. I'm like, okay, cool. That's Lamar done been through the same thing a couple of times before. All right. It's all good. But now today, Ian Rappapour, he said, per me and a DD King Cabawa, Tyler Huntley is headed to the COVID-19 reserve list sick yesterday. Now on the list today, he is out for Sunday. He's out. He's done. He's out. So what are the Ravens going to do? Because Lamar Jackson, he's out because he's been hurt. Now I really hope, I really hope the Ravens, they, this doesn't make them. All right, Lamar, you got to be out there now since Tyler Huntley's out. We got no choice. And I really do think it seems as if this injury may be a little bit worse than the Ravens are leading us to believe, but that's a whole another conversation. But with Tyler Huntley being out, they have Josh Johnson, but who would back him up? Ravens have to sign somebody. Who would back up Josh Johnson? Because Lamar Jackson out because of injury Tyler Huntley out because of COVID. Chris Stravlar is also on the COVID list. I'm like 99% sure he's on there too. So who's going to back up Josh Johnson? The Ravens have to, they're going to have to sign somebody. They're going to have to sign somebody. They're going to have to bring, they're going to have to bring somebody on within the next like couple of hours. And that person is going to have to fly with it. Like hold up, because the game is in Cincinnati tomorrow. So Ravens, they will be flying out today. And this thing is, oh my goodness. You know what? Let me just check right now. Let me just check right now because I know that that COVID list. The Ravens COVID list is crazy. Let me see who the backup would be. Because I know they, I know Jeff Zribick just tweeted out everybody who's on the list right now. And I'm about to check it right here right now so we can know. Because I just want to make sure. Okay. So wait a minute. Okay. Maybe what's the name? Maybe Chris Stravlar isn't on the list. Maybe he's not on the list. I really thought he was. I was like a thousand percent sure that he was, but maybe he's not. Maybe he's one of the people that wasn't on it. Okay. So if that's the case, then that, that lets us know that maybe he will be actually able to play. This thing is a mess, man. Oh, this thing is a mess, man. It's a mess. It's a mess. It's a mess, man. It's a mess. It is a mess. So maybe, so I guess they don't have to sign anybody. If Chris Stravlar isn't on the list, he'll just get called up for the game tomorrow as a COVID replacement as a COVID call up. And that'll be that. I don't know, man. I just, oh goodness, man. Like draining, draining this season has been draining. Now imagine if Raven pulled this off. Imagine if they pull it off with Josh Johnson. Imagine. Anything's possible, but just imagine. I don't even know y'all. I don't even know y'all. Oh, my expectations going into the game. Oh, hold up. Okay. So Jeff Zribick, he cleared it up. He said Josh Johnson and Lamar, the Ravens, only two quarterbacks, not on the reserve COVID list. He said, so Jackson may have to be active either way. I don't think they would do that. I don't think they would have him active and then like, and him not like, no. Okay. So maybe Chris Traveller is there then on the, on the COVID list. Anyway, whether he is or not, Josh Johnson tomorrow. I don't know, man. I know this video been all over the place. My head is all over the place right now because these Ravens are all over the place. This is just, it's just insane. It's just insane. That's it. Ain't no other way to put it, man. This is insane, insane, insane. Oh, but with Josh Johnson, Hey, you don't know what to expect. I mean, this, this would be the real ultimate curve ball because remember before we talked about what Tyler Huntley like leading up to the packers game, the Ravens like, okay, Lamar, he didn't practice, but he could still play, still possibility, but possibility that he could play. I can't even talk, um, and he didn't play. They were trying to make the packers prepared for both quarterbacks. We knew Lamar wasn't playing Packers knew Lamar wasn't playing but regardless, but then this week. All right bingles Lamar hasn't been practicing You know bingles. They preparing for Tyler Huntley. All right watching film on Tyler Huntley. They're boom Josh Johnson time, baby. And that's that's a curveball that nobody saw coming nobody Not even the Ravens Wink Martindale talked about it in a presser from either yesterday to day before yesterday. He said that um There's a lady the lady that handles the the health and safety and all the COVID stuff that gives him all the information He said that they love her. They love her. They appreciate her job. They appreciate what she does They got a lot of love for but wink said that he hates seeing her Because she's the one that always has to deliver that bad news I'm saying oh this person is on COVID list that person's on COVID list. So it's very very unfortunate. So anyway, um That's it That's that's it like That's it. What? That's it What can you do? What can you do? What can you expect? I? Don't I don't know babe. I don't know. I don't I don't know so Team keep it clean appreciate y'all love y'all Mmm-hmm. Oh my god Jeff's he said it's Jackson and Johnson. That's all they got That's it. So it's looking like it's going to be uh, Josh Johnson and Where the Lamar is active but Sam cook he man The shot baby and he look like he could play some quarterback. He look like he get though So he might have to get some action at the quarterback position just in case just in case just in case now Something to think about Josh Johnson and Tyler Huntley are both quarterbacks So they are around each other They practice together. They be in the building together. So just imagine a Denver Broncos type situation from last year Because it cannot be ruled out because we still have a less than 24 hours Yeah, less than 24 hours before the game It is possible Something to think about and I mean, I know you figure. Oh, it can't get any worse than this. Oh, it can Something to think about it is possible That within the next 24 hours that Josh Johnson could also be placed on the COVID list as well It is very possible So just keep that in mind going forward and it's possible Lamar They could throw Lamar on there too, but he ain't been practicing. So it'd be a lot harder to but still Lamar been going to all the QB meetings and stuff And so it is possible that the Ravens could actually have no quarterbacks for the game tomorrow against the Bengals So Hope your day is going great. Love ya. We out	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RF-ZpiDzCk", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

See displayed here are the list of news articles that I have chosen for today's discussion. See today's discussion is really going to be very useful for both your problems as well as mains and as I always assure you I have an economic topic today also it is regarding the concept of fiscal consolidation then in that itself I had covered about fiscal deficit and how to address the fiscal deficit okay and the first news article that I have chosen for today's discussion is very much important for both your problems and mains keeping in mind that problems is fast approaching I had made a point to cover all important points that can be put in your problems questions okay and in the other two articles also I had made a point to give more importance for your problems so without wasting much time now let's get into the first news article discussion now take a look at this editorial article see this editorial article talks about secularism I hope you all remember the recent hijab issue that was raised in the state of Karnataka and when the issue was taken to the Karnataka High Court it could not settle the issue the judgment of the High Court was very technical it nearly read like a petition and it revealed an excessive desire to disprove the opposing viewpoint hence it's judgment for the provoked the hijab hearing college students in Udupi as a result no they have now approached the Supreme Court of India to contest the order so this is the crux of the article given here see you very well know that this topic secularism is very much important for your mains but note that the philosophy of secularism is very much important for your problems also because questions based on that is coming nowadays and also the constitutional provisions regarding secularism can be asked as a preliminary question so this topic is going to be relevant for both your problems as well as means kindly pay attention and make note of each and every point that is going to be mentioned in this discussion okay before that the syllabus relevant to this news article is highlighted here for your reference just go through it see to begin with what is secularism secularism in simple term refers to separation of religion from the state or you can say it is a normative doctrine which seeks to realize a secular society that is a society that is devoid of either interreligious or intra-religious dominations see to put positively it promotes freedom within religions and equality between as well as within religions now what kind of state is necessary to realize these goals the answer is very simple to realize secularism we need a secular state now when you look at the constitution of India it stands for a secular state hence it does not uphold any particular religion as the official religion of the Indian state now we are going to see some of the provisions of the Indian constitution that reveals the secular character of the Indian state firstly as you know originally the constitution provided for seven fundamental rights and a part three of the Indian constitution from articles 12 to 35 one among the fundamental rights is the right to freedom of religion which includes articles from 25 to article 28 remember this fundamental right is available not only for citizens of India but also for the foreigners see all persons are equally entitled to freedom of consigns and the right to freely profess practice and propagate any religion this is under article 25 then when you take article 26 it says every religious denominations or any of its section shall have the right to manage its religious affairs then if you take article 27 it says no person shall be compelled to pay any tax for the promotion of a particular religion and lastly when you take article 28 it says no religious instruction shall be provided in any educational institution maintained by the state here you must note one thing the constitution originally or even under fundamental rights does not explicitly mentions the term secularism or secular state there is no doubt that constitution makers wanted to establish such a state under article 25 to 28 which is guaranteeing the fundamental right that is freedom of religion but still the constitution does not explicitly mention that India is a secular state see wait wait it is for this reason only the 42nd constitutional amendment act was made so according to this 42nd constitutional amendment act the term secular was added to the preamble of the Indian constitution itself okay so far we specifically saw about the provisions of the Indian constitution which are explicitly projecting India as a secular state see apart from this there are many other provisions of the Indian constitution which are implicitly projecting India as a secular state now let us see them on by one see in preamble in addition to the term secular state there is also liberty of belief faith and worship this is implicitly mentioning that India is a secular state and when you take article 14 it says the state shall not deny to any person equality before law and equal protection of the laws see here they are meaning to say that a person from a particular religion is not given high status he is treated equally before law okay now when you take article 15 it says that the state shall not discriminate against any citizen on the ground of religion and when you take article 16 it says equality of opportunity for all citizens the matters of public employment should be provided and when you take article 29 it says any section of the citizen shall have the right to conserve its distinct language script or culture then when you take article 30 all the minority shall have the right to establish and administer the educational institution of their choice lastly when you take article 44 as you are right it is regarding DPSP it has also made a provision like that the state shall endeavor to secure for all the citizens a uniform civil code so having seen the provisions of the Indian constitution now let us move on to the important part of the discussion that is the Indian philosophy of secularism see the Indian concept of secularism differs from the western concept of secularism this is because the western concept of secularism connotes a complete separation between the religion and the state see this is reflecting a negative concept of secularism and it is in applicable in the Indian situation because the society here is multi-religious hence the Indian constitution embodies the positive concept of secularism that is giving equal respect to all religions or protecting all religions equally to put it in simple words India as a secular state do not interfere with religion or religious activities and faith also note that any religion or religious activities or faith does not play any role in law and policy making decisions but still India respects all religion and protects all religion equally okay now coming back to the news article see according to the author the issue of the hijab is political as well as constitutional the top court that is a Supreme Court might examine the constitutional aspect and his judgment will hopefully settle the issue but the political dimension of the hijab issue will continue to trouble the Indian society for a long time see the author says so because according to him the sudden eruption of the issue is nothing but a reflection of a widespread intolerance among the people this is true because as a matter of fact Hindu and Sikh women in northern India cover their heads on all important occasions such as marriage or funeral or religious ceremonies etc etc but still wearing hijab and school primers became an issue the fact that a piece of cloth is enough to provoke people to rush out on to the street and fight each other is a witness to the transformation that has occurred in the Indian society see the transformation that I'm mentioning here is an environment of intolerance okay see in the situation the claims of traditional tolerance pluralism seems like a bad joke now the threat here is there is too much religiosity in public life in India so we have conveniently changed the meaning of secularism into Sarva Dharma Sambhav which would only lead to majoritarianism and ultimately to the establishment of a theocratic state see what is this theocratic state a state governed directly by a priestly order is called a theocratic state see if such a thing happens theocracy will ensure that disintegration of the country in the Indian context a theocratic state based on the religious scriptures would be fundamentally unstable since it would deny the subaltern class equality before the law and equal protection the law not only this they also lead to discrimination against them on the basis of caste see this may lead to long-lasting conflicts in the eventual disintegration of the society will happen so by now you would have understood that disturbing the secularism of India is equal to threatening the very base of the society so this moves us to the question of way forward now what should be done we must come to the obvious conclusion that India as a nation can only survive as a secular state that is there should be no religious promotion by the state see according to the author the fact that educated Indians mock secularism and have come to endorse the idea of theocratic state based on the dominant religion is an indication of people's thoughtlessness see this educated Indians mood is being shaped by the confusing religion or political campaigns see remember why secularism was chosen by Indian leaders see secularism was chosen as the foundational principle of the Republic to keep the nation united hence enlightened citizen should understand that if secularism is abandoned the country's hard one unity will be endangered so as a citizen of India every citizen has a patriotic duty to strengthen secularism and thereby safeguard the nation so that's all about this news article we discussed about what is secularism especially we discussed about the Indian philosophy of secularism then we saw about the constitutional provisions which talks about the secularism we saw both explicit mentioning and implicit mentioning okay then we saw the threat to secularism and what will be the cause of that threat lastly we saw what should be done as a citizen of India to protect secularism so these key points and nine now let's move on to the next news article discussion look at this article here it is about the purchase of bramos missiles by philippines from india see we all know that bramos supersonic cruise missile was a joint development between india and russia but the purchase of the cruise missile by philippines from india is notable here this is because india would be able to move ahead on a bilateral basis with philippines so this is the essence of the news article given here in this context let us learn more about missiles from prilim's perspective here i'll be covering about the types of missiles then i'll also cover about bramos missile in prilim's perspective okay first of all let us see what is a missile see a missile is nothing but an object such as a weapon thrown or projected this is thrown or projected in order to strike something at a distance which is a target okay see it is usually a rocket which carries a payload with the aim of destroying the target there are different types of missiles on the basis of launch mode no they are classified as surface to surface add to surface then surface to air missiles then add to air missiles then you can also say anti-satellite weapons missiles okay see as far as the types are concerned they are very easy because you can understand from the name itself what is the type and what is its mechanism okay now for example take the surface to surface missile it means the rocket is propelled from the ground and it hits a target on the ground okay likewise you take the add to air missile it means it is propelled from a jet and it will hit the target which is in the air see the target might be another jet or something else okay now when you take the add to surface missile it means they are propelled from a jet and it hits a target on the ground can you understand from the name itself you can understand the mechanism of their launch am i right that is why this is a very easy classification and when you take the surface to air now you say what happens here it is just opposite to add to surface that is the missile is propelled from the surface and it hits the target in the air okay then you may ask what are ballistic missile cruise missile anti-ship or anti-tank missiles wait let us discuss about each of these one by one first let us see about the ballistic missile see the ballistic missile is targeted as a projectile from a single launch force see here not much guidance is added okay and it is launched directly into the high layers of the earth's atmosphere it travels well outside the atmosphere and then the warhead detaches and falls back to earth see the ballistic missile follows the path of a ball thrown upwards which falls down see when you throw a ball how does it go do you remember that path in a similar way the ballistic missile will travel okay since it depends on gravity to reach its target it is called as ballistic missile see ballistic missiles can travel extremely quick along their flight path with the terminal speeds of over 5000 meter per second the ballistic missiles are much harder to intercept than the cruise missile see this is due to the much shorter time available okay see these ballistic missiles are some of the most feared weapons that are available and it can be launched from ships and they can also be land based facilities okay now based on the range no we can classify this ballistic missile as short range medium range then intermediate range and lastly you can also go for intercontinental ballistic missile these are all the types of ballistic missile based on range okay some examples of ballistic missiles in India are Agni 1 Agni 2 then Prithvi 1 Prithvi 2 and Dhanush okay now let's see about the cruise missiles a cruise missile is a guided missile that means the target has to be preset it is used against terrestrial targets see here when you take the cruise missiles they are generally consisting of a guidance system in addition to the payload an aircraft propulsion system and note that this cruise missiles are housed in an airframe with small wings and appendage see appendage is nothing but an arrangement of stabilizing the surface at the tail of an aircraft this is mainly for flight control okay now when you take the cruise missiles they can be launched from various platforms that means they can be landed from land or sea see here means they can be submarine launch or ship launch then they can be launched from air also okay see these cruise missiles are characterized by having different forms of guidance such as satellite GPS guidance then they are known specifically for the low level flight which is staying relatively close to the surface of the earth this is mainly known to avoid the detection from anti-missile systems and they are designed to carry large payloads with high precision okay see the key is that the missile is guided entirely to the target under its own power okay the cruise missiles can be categorized by size speed when you talk about speed no you can call them as supersonic subsonic or hypersonic cruise missiles and it can also be classified based on range and from where it can be launched that is from land or air or surface or ship or submarine whatever it may be okay see when you take the land attack missiles they are the cruise missiles which are designed to hit stationary or moving targets on land okay now let me tell you about the anti-tank missile see anti-tank guided missile anti-tank missile anti-tank guided weapon or anti armor guided weapon all these are guided missile primarily designed to hit and destroy heavily armored military vehicles okay when you ask me a few examples i can tell you to Nag and Helena which are the examples of anti-tank missiles in India okay and now let me tell you about the anti-ship missile see these are a guided missile that is designed for use against ships and large boats see all these ballistic cruise anti-ship and anti-tank missiles are under the broad category which is surface to surface surface to air or air to air or air to surface it means all ballistic cruise anti-ship anti-tank missiles all these can be launched from surface okay now coming back to the article see the article is about the missile bramos so let us see a few important facts about the bramos missile which are very much important for your preliminary examination see the missile has been developed as a joint venture between the DRDO and the federal state unitary enterprise NPO machino stroinya see if you find it difficult to remember this enterprise name just have in mind that it is a Russian-based enterprise and remember this bramos is the first supersonic missile known to be in service bramos is a two-stage supersonic cruise missile which is a solid propellant booster engine as its first stage which brings it to the supersonic speed and then gets separated so remember its first stage is a solid propellant okay then the liquid ramjet or the second stage no then takes the missile closer to three max speed see the missile is fitted with stealth technology and guidance systems with advanced embedded software which provides the missiles with special features now what is the stealth technology see it is very simple a stealth technology is intended to make vehicles or missiles nearly invisible to the enemy radar or other electronic detection so you can call the stealth technology as a invisible technology okay see the missile maintains supersonic speed all through the flight leading to a shorter flight time see it is capable of being launched from submarine ships fighter jets or land and it operates on fire and forget principle adopting varieties of flights on its way to the target what is this fire and forget principle see the fire and forget principle of operation means the missile guidance does not require further guidance that is once it is launched and until it hits the target it doesn't require any guiding system and note that the launcher need not be in the line of sight of the target understood so this bramos is performing under this fire and forget principle of operation okay see the destructive power of bramos is enhanced due to large kinetic energy on impact and that's all about this news article we saw everything about the types of missile and what is a missile then how from the name itself you can understand what is the mechanism of the missile then lastly we saw about the bramos missile see this topic is very much important for your problems because you can expect this kind of questions so with these key points in mind now let's move on to the next news article discussion now look at this news article see this article is from the business page in the hindu paper and you know it's hard to miss this kind of article see this article is about borrowing the article says that according to s&p global ratings global sovereign borrowing will reach 10.4 trillion dollar in 2022 that is almost a third above average before the COVID-19 pandemic and the rating agency said that despite an economic recovery borrowing will stay elevated because of high depth rollover requirements and the war in Ukraine see the conditions that are prevailing globally is spoken in this news article when we talk about borrowing know we should always think of fiscal consolidation because when the borrowing increases the country's depth is increasing thus to prevent this from happening fiscal consolidation must be done so now comes the question here what is fiscal consolidation see to know about fiscal consolidation you should know about fiscal deficit the word fiscal refers to annual government account statements and the word deficit stands for shortage therefore fiscal deficit is a term used to define the difference between what a government spends and what it collects as revenue now you may wonder how can government spend beyond its revenue it is by means of borrowing so in simple words a fiscal deficit situation occurs when the government spends more than what it earns this deficit is calculated in absolute terms and also as a percentage of gross domestic product or GDP of the country for example if the GDP of a country is 100 lakh crore and the difference between total income and expenditure is 10 lakh crore then the fiscal deficit is 10 percentage see if a country has a large and recurring fiscal deficit it shows that the government has been spending beyond what it gets as revenue when you talk about India the fiscal deficit is the king indicator to show the fiscal health of the government effectively fiscal deficit indicates the amount of government borrowing for that particular year am i right excess fiscal deficit produces some adverse effects for the government it causes interest payment burden and for the economy it causes inflationary effect and rising interest rate in the economy so by this time you'd have understood what is this fiscal deficit and what are all the troubles that it is causing and how it is managed it is managed through borrowing so what can be done to control all these problems here comes the answer fiscal consolidation see fiscal consolidation refers to the ways and means of narrowing the fiscal deficit see a government typically borrows to bridge the deficit it will then have to allocate a part of its earning to serve as the debt am i right so the interest burden will increase as the debt increases see when you take the budget for the financial year 2022 of the total government expenditure of over 34.83 lakh crore more than 8.09 lakh crore that is around 20 percent went towards interest payments alone see this depth is one liability that is difficult to defer and at the end of the day the government struggles to find more resources not just for capital expenditure but also for revenue expenditure so in the long run uncontrolled fiscal deficit will hurt economic growth now let us see the measures from the expenditure side and the revenue side that are envisaged by the government to achieve this fiscal consolidation or what we call it as narrowing the fiscal deficit firstly there should be improvement in the tax revenue realization for this increasing efficiency of tax administration by reducing tax avoidance then eliminating tax evasion then enhancing tax compliances etc etc are to be made secondly there should be enhancement in the tax GDP ratio this is done by widening the tax base and minimizing the tax concessions and exemptions see all these will improve tax revenue am i right so now the third measure is better targeting of government subsidies and extending the direct benefit transfer scheme for more subsidies see when the government makes the target for subsidies specific and efficient then definitely the income from the particular sector will enhance the country's economy else it is only going to increase the deficit of the country okay see the higher economic growth rate will help government to get higher tax revenues as well so augmentation of tax revenue is necessary to bring fiscal consolidation as there are limitations for reducing government expenditure in India note that announcing fiscal consolidation plans and measures is a prerequisite to restore public finances also it helps to maintain market confidence see when a country is having more and more percentage of fiscal deficit then who will be confident enough to invest in the country no countries or no companies will be ready to invest right so in order to maintain market confidence also a country should be fiscal deficit free or at least it should be reduced to certain level that is why this fiscal consolidation is very much important see it aims at reducing the government deficit and debt accumulation okay so that's all about this news article i hope you'd have understood about the term fiscal deficit then what are all the causes then what are all the troubles it is causing then how it is managed and finally i hope you'd have understood about the term fiscal consolidation so with these key points in mind now let's move on to the next news article discussion have a look at this news article see this news article talks about a report released by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change that is shortly called as IPCC report as you know IPCC is the United Nations body in charge of evaluating the science related to climate change this news article is more significant in that manner so in this background let us quickly go through the findings of the report before that have this basic understanding see recently released report is nothing but a summary report this summary for policy makers summarizes major conclusions from the working group 2's contribution to the IPCC's sixth assessment report okay the report actually highlights the connection of climate ecosystem and biodiversity as well as human societies and integrates knowledge more strongly across the natural ecological social and economic sciences this is more efficient than the previous IPCC's assessment you can see it in the image given here see from this image itself you can understand how efficiently the report is getting transformed see the climate change causes impacts and risk is on one side and the future climate change limiting the global warming is on the other side so what are all the timely action required can be listed out by each and every government across the globe and thus the global warming can be addressed or in simple words this report evaluates the physical science of climate change looking at the past present and future climate it reveals how human caused emissions are altering our planet and what that means for our collective future talking about the highlights of the report see the latest report has for the first time made an assessment of regional and sectoral impacts of the climate change it has included risk to and vulnerabilities of megacities around the world for example it has said Mumbai is at high risk of sea level rays and flooding well Ahamadabad faces a serious danger of heat waves for the first time the IPCC report has looked at the health impacts of climate change for example it has found that the climate change is increasing vector-borne and water-borne diseases such as malaria or dengue particularly in subtropical regions of Asia and secondly if you take it has also said deaths related to circulatory respiratory diabetic and infectious diseases as well as infant mortality are likely to increase with the rise in temperature then thirdly the increasing frequency of extreme weather events like heat waves flooding and rot and even air pollution was contributing to under nutrition allergic diseases and even mental disorders so talking about India specific study see the report identifies India as one of the vulnerable hotspots with several regions and important cities facing very high risk of climate disasters for example the climate disaster such as flooding sea level rise and heat waves are getting more and more see i already mentioned that Mumbai is at high risk of sea level rise and flooding and Ahmedabad is facing serious danger of heat waves okay then several cities including Chennai Bhuneshwar partner and Lucknow are approaching dangerous levels of heat and humidity see infrastructure including transportation water and sanitation and energy systems has been compromised by extreme and slow onset events this further results in economic losses disruption of services and impacts the well-being of the humans see we know that urban India is at greater risk than other areas with a projected population of 877 million by 2050 see this is nearly double or 480 million in the year 2020 okay so that's all about this news article so we had discussed about the IPCC report which is very much important for your problems and i had given the key findings of the recent report just keep those key points in mind it will be very much useful in addressing your problems based questions okay so with these key points in mind now let's move on to the next part of the news article discussion which is the preliminary practice question discussion now look at this first question it is regarding the Brahmos missile that we discussed today see it is a two statement question so we have to go through both these statements before answering this question okay now look at the first statement it is absolutely incorrect because we saw that the Brahmos is a two-stage supersonic cruise missile with a solid propellant booster engine as its first stage so why is this statement wrong it says that Brahmos is an intercontinental ballistic missile so it is absolutely incorrect okay and the second part no which is talking about the range it is also incorrect because the liquid ramjet or the second stage of this Brahmos cruise missile takes the missile closer to three max speed in cruise phase okay so the first statement here is incorrect now take the second statement it is correct because this we saw in a discussion itself that the missile has been developed as a joint windshield between the DRDO and I said one enterprise name right federal state unitary enterprise NPO machinous tyrannia simply you can remember that it is a russian enterprise okay so this is the first supersonic missile known to be in service okay and see now read the complete question it is asking for correct statement so your answer here will be option B to unleash the correct statement okay now look at this second question see consider the following statement with reference to the type of deficits so three statements are given see whenever you have more than two statements you can opt for elimination technique whenever I get this kind of questions no I always go in for third statement or second statement so let me take the third statement today see the primary deficit is the difference between revenue deficit and grants for creation of capital asset this statement is absolutely incorrect because the definition given there is the definition of effective revenue deficit yes effective revenue deficit is the difference between revenue deficits and grants for the creation of capital assets okay and what is the definition of primary deficit see primary deficit is nothing but the difference between the fiscal deficit of the current year and the interest paid by the government on loans obtained in the past okay so now you know that statement three is incorrect you can eliminate three options that is B, C, D and you can easily find the answer as option A one and two only but always read the other statements also before confirming the answer now look at the first statement fiscal deficit is the difference between the total income of the government and its total expenditure yes it is correct now look at the second statement revenue deficit arises when the government's revenue expenditure exceeds the total revenue receipts yes absolutely correct okay so your answer for this question is option A one and two only is the correct statement okay now look at the third question see it is regarding our IPCC report discussion okay it is a two statement question so we are going to go through both these statements before answering this question look at the first statement it is correct because we saw in a discussion itself that IPCC is a united nation body in charge of evaluating the science related to climate change okay so statement one is correct now look at the second statement see it says that it was established by united nation general assembly and the world meteorological organization in 1988 this statement is incorrect because it was established by UNAP that is united nation environment program and world meteorological organization in the year 1988 it was only endorsed by the UN general assembly okay so the question is demanding for the correct statements your answer will be option A one only is a correct statement okay now I have displayed here a mains question please go through the question and write your answers and post it in the comment section and if you have any doubts regarding the discussion you can post all your doubts in the comment section and it will be clarified as soon as possible if you like this video do like share and comment and don't forget to subscribe to the Shankar IAS Academy's YouTube channel thank you for listening	{ "url":

UCSljO84JCPeaefyHe-8voIg	Unique Early-Onset Scoliosis Case in an 8-year-old \| Dr. Saurabh Verma \| Manipal Hospitals Delhi	Wiaam, an 8-year-old child from Iraq, was referred to Dr. Saurabh Verma at Manipal Hospitals Delhi. The child was suffering from a severe case of kyphoscoliosis, with a spine curvature measuring Cobb's angle of 150 degrees. A two-step process was implemented for the surgery and rehabilitation of Wiaam's condition. Halo gravity technique was implemented in the first stage, and dual-growing rods technique of surgery was implemented in the second stage. Watch the video to hear about Wiaam's case from Dr. Saurabh Verma. Consult our specialists at Manipal Hospitals Delhi, today. Call 011 4967 4967 or click on this link to book an appointment - https://bit.ly/MHNewDelhi	[ "Hospital", "Manipal Hospitals", "Healthcare", "Multi speciality hospitals", "India" ]	2020-06-17T11:47:04	2024-02-05T08:29:40	129	5reEmdt559w	Hi, I am Dr. Saurav Verma, working as the Head of Department and Consultant in the Department of Spine Care at Manipa Hospital, Dwarka. Today, we have with us a 8-year-old young girl from Iraq with an infantile adiopathic splurge with a curvature of the spine measuring with a cobs angle of somewhere close to 160 degrees. She has a kyphosclerotic deformity of the spine, which is debilitating and causing a restricted lung disease to the child. She is just 8 years old and 11 kgs, so we will be just putting her on a hello gravity traction for now and see how much of a correction we can achieve from this method. She will be undergoing a growing rod concept of spine splurge's correction surgery at the end of one month and see how much of a correction we can achieve. She will be given successive distractions every 6 months for a period of 3-4 years from now, so that she can achieve the maximum lung capacity as well as the growth so that the child is normal in all behaviors. Right now, she has no neurological deficit and we hope she remains same neurologically postoperatively. So as discussed, this child underwent surgery in two stages, in which the first stage the hello gravity interaction was applied, in which the child was put on hello gravity with a modified wheelchair, the modified bed arrangement as well as the modified bunker and she was with gravity traction 24 hours a day. So she was kept under in the hospital under observation, under rigorous physiotherapy for a period of one month following which the patient underwent the second surgery of scoliosis correction in which we had placed the growing rod concept of surgery so that the child can now achieve with successive distraction the maximum growth as well as the maximum lung capacity.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5reEmdt559w", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Welcome back to the channel. Footies, batch number two. We are still in the middle of footies. Best of packs, set number two is out right now. We need to look at the market for this week. I'm gonna be honest, this is probably one of the last market outlook SBCs that you're gonna see from me for the rest of this FIFA. I mean, we'll do some periodic market videos here and there depending on what comes out, depending on what stuff happens. But for me, I haven't been trading for a long time and if you're still trading, I'm not gonna tell you to stop. But I mean, this is kind of like the end of the game. If you don't have what you've been grinding for in FIFA so far, I know everybody's situation is different. But now is the time of the game just to have fun. And sometimes by having fun, that means actually putting down the game. That is exactly what I did today. I am not finishing my week in the games. I'm on like eight wins right now. And it is just not worth it for me to be playing this game in this period of time. Almost the end of July, almost August. We're gonna be getting information about FIFA 20. I'll still be on FIFA 19. But honestly, I don't even have the urge to do upgrade packs right now, which is, you know, it sucks. And when they put batch three out, hopefully we get batch three next week and they put major top tier team of the season cards back in packs. That'll probably ignite the fire a little bit. But I have five and a half million coins. I have plenty of coins where I can go out and do things. I have an end game team that I'm happy with. I'm going through an icon SPC with Maldini. I'm gonna have him as a center back in my starting team. And I will be basically finished with my team. I'll still do SPCs and stuff. But yeah, I would just tell you guys like, just whatever you wanna do with the game, whether it's just have fun playing week in league, trying to get good reds, doing upgrade packs, crafting icon SPCs because high ratings are so cheap, or whatever it is. If that's even just doing weekly objectives and then getting off the game, like by all means, do whatever you need to do because this is like the rest time for FIFA, I guess, as well. You know, we've been grinding all year in FIFA. Since September of last year, we've been grinding this game. And a lot of people have dropped off if you're still hanging on. Kudos to you, by the way. But I think it is time for me at least to just take a step back and realize what am I actually doing on this game? So with that being said, let's look at the market for this week because for you guys out there that are still crafting icon SPCs, like myself, we have some incredibly cheap cards out there on the market right now. You know, they're still inflated a little bit for the 81s to 82s, with those team week SPCs being out, the 84s as well, but the 85s, the 86s, basically everything that's an 85 rated on up. It is a fantastic crafting time right now. We have the SPCs out, the upgrade SPCs, only for, you know, until Monday at 6 p.m. UK. Then these go away, which I kind of find interesting. But I'm curious to see what happens after this if they're gonna release a different type of upgrade or if they're gonna wait until batch three to release any of these upgrades. But you're probably gonna see some of the higher rated gold cards back in this range kind of start to creep back up because we're not gonna have as much supply from these upgrade SPCs, which a lot of people are getting high ratings from to do SPCs in. So we're probably gonna see some of these cards kind of tick back up in price throughout the week. If you wanna invest in some cards, honestly, I would go with the gold card versions. Some of these players that are actually here right now, some of them might be out of packs. I haven't done the actual math and look and seen which gold cards are out of packs. But it's probably a decent time for a club stock, 85 rated and above. Not a lot of these SPCs that they've been putting out have been 85 and above, but there's still people on this game that are continuing to do icon SPCs. So that's something that you're intrigued with, something that you might wanna do. Throw a couple, throw a couple gold, do a club stock. You know, like this Terstek in it, 22,000 coins for an 89 rated card is just outrageously cheap. All of these high rated golds are so low because of the special cards that are dropping and these special cards are really low now as well just because they're very attainable through upgrade packs. So I wanted to mention that to you guys. If you're gonna do an icon SPC, even if you're not entirely done yet, like I'm not entirely done with Maldini, I'm probably gonna set up a last few set of upgrade packs and then I need to actually probably stock some of my club with some of these higher rated golds that are out here on the game because I need to be able to complete that SPC for the very cheap price that it is now. And maybe even do some of the informed upgrade SPCs to get some informs as well because informs are pretty crucial for an SPC like Maldini. But I do see some of the SPC fodder rising a little bit into this week just because of the fact that this 81 to 86 SPC is gonna be gone and both of these are gonna be gone because a lot of people are getting high rates from this whether it be a high rated special cards or high rated golds in general, they're very easy to get from those SPCs. I think those will tick up throughout the week because we're gonna get more SPCs. I think a lot of people are still thinking we're gonna get a flashback, this Latan back in packs. We have Denialves in packs right now. So maybe they will wait until this Denialves goes away and they might throw his Latan in. We got the Crouch SPC. I mean, we've had a lot of really solid SPCs throughout the footies promo at the re-release. So I'm excited to see what else they bring out. And all it would take is for them to drop a VVD player the year that they redropped that SPC and made it a lot cheaper. It was about a million coins when it came out. And right now with the way a high rated gold prices are if they cut that cost in half and make it 500K, I would do that SPC. I think a lot of people would do that SPC as well. So that's another possible SPC hazard player in a month, SPC as well. I'm just thinking about some things we couldn't see this week. We are gonna see some more SPCs. And again, I want to kind of mention these SPCs that are going away because this is where like all the hype is right now in FIFA. The weekly objectives, we have some couple players there that I want to look at and look over. You guys already know about those. But this is where all the hype in FIFA is right now. Like this is literally what you do on FIFA. You come on, you play some week in league and you do an upgrade packs. And that's why it kind of feels dead to me. I hate saying dead, but it just feels, I don't have the passion or the want to grind the game right now as much, even with all this stuff in packs, just because the best of the best isn't in packs. If those team of the season cards were in packs, I would be going after these packs a lot more. And I've already done a lot of these upgrades and they've somewhat paid out. They've helped me do Maldini, but it hasn't been anything super spectacular. So hopefully this week we get some better SPCs, just get something to kind of refresh to get us wanting to play this game. I do think that I will go out and get some of these daily objectives. I do think I will get the Alessandroini just for fun because it's very easy when three squad battles matches using 11 MLS players. That's an easy one. A lot of people like this Campembe card because if you have Lala or if you have Denny Alves, he is a strong link to either of those cards, very popular center back in the game. So I think a lot of people are doing this SPC or this week objective as well. So that's something to do throughout the week. But I'm honestly, I'm just kind of curious to see what they put out for the rest of this week in packs. And I wanted to look at one last thing, or excuse me, not about packs, about SPCs. I wanted to look at one last thing. And I've had some people asking me about when do I need to buy cards that are in set two, batch two, when is the best time to buy those cards? So I wanted to look at a couple guys from batch number one that had market movements after they went out of packs. This Fabinho was one of them. So his champions, as you go to the final card, you see his lowest point was on Thursday, the first week he was in packs. So he went into packs on this Wednesday, the first week on Thursday, Weekend League Rewards Day, he went to 270, there was a Weekend League sell-off, he went to 267, and then right as he went out of packs, he went shooting back up to 330,000 coins. Diamonds and Sanchez is another one of those. Wednesday, Thursday before awards, 118K. You see him two weeks later, or a week later, he's 170K on Friday. So now, the one thing that I have a problem with, I'm not gonna go out and tell you guys to go invest in some of these like FFS cards. Obviously I looked at Premier League cards right there, maybe like in Alexander Arnold, since there's a huge gap between his team of the season card and this FFS. 77K on PS4, crazy, crazy low prices for some of these cards. This could be a card, you see he's been 85 on Xbox. If you see this card at like 60,000 coins, you know that that is just way too cheap. Even if he is in packs a little bit longer, probably a lot of people have the Walker card right now, but people that are looking for budget teams in this game, they're gonna look at this Alexander Arnold, remember that he was just going for like 200, 300,000 coins, and they're gonna go pick him up. If you're a budget guy in this game, this is a perfect card. So I think this could be a card that maybe rises up, but again, it looks like from the past set of cards, the first Wednesday and Thursday, so this coming Wednesday and Thursday is the really low point for those cards. So we're looking at FFS, obviously we're looking at headliners, maybe you wanna get a headliner. Pogba on your team, 800 and K, 800 or 48K right now, which is very, very cheap. 88 right back Lala is 32K, are you serious? Wow, that is an ultimate drop off. That is crazy, dude. That is crazy, man. Pogba still holds some value because he's Pogba. He doesn't have a team in the season, but if you're looking to buy some of these cards that you think are gonna rebound out of packs, definitely focus on the Premier League. This Rashford cards impact right now 163K, that could be one that maybe rises a little bit out of packs. I wouldn't say this is an investment opportunity because with batch three coming up, I think they're going to do the best of, basically they're gonna do the best of that we know last year. So they're gonna put the best version of every card of the game in packs. I honestly think that's what they're gonna do for set number three. If they don't, I'll probably be a little bit disappointed, but even then, let's say you have a person like this Trent Alexander-Arnold card, if this team in the season card goes back into packs, he'd probably will be 500K by the time batch three comes around again. This card still being at 60, 70K if you can get at that price range. Even if that Tots card drops down to 400 or 350K, this card should easily rebound from 60 to 100 because this card would not be in packs at that point and you have to kind of think about it this way. If they do best of Tots and put the best version of each player excluding team of the year back into packs for batch number three, this card won't be in packs. Again, if you're a budget guy in this game, there's gonna be people that are gonna come onto the game for that, especially if they do upgrade packs and they promo it, you're gonna see some people come back onto the game. People that might not have a lot of coins, they can afford a 60K right back or maybe an 86K Gabriel Azuz because I think he's got an 88 rated man of the match card so that's a bit interesting. But that's gonna be kind of present maybe an interesting little investment opportunity in itself or just a possibility for you to buy that card for your team. If you want this card for your team, I mean, this week is probably the time to get him because he's not gonna be in packs for the rest of the year unless they do something else other than like best of that we just talked about. If they don't throw Premier League Tots back into packs which would be a huge disgrace in my opinion, just do it, it's July, it's August by the time batch three is gonna be out. So I hope you're tracking along with me on that one. If you want more information about what I'm thinking here, if you want me to explain that better with like the batch three and what that could look like, say something in the comments down below and I will talk more about that in an upcoming video as we get closer to batch three. So but again, yeah, this is just the time of FIFA where a lot of times you don't entirely know what to do and that's kind of at the point where I'm at right now. I know I can play pro clubs. I know I can do, you know, fun stuff on the game with upgrade packs and stuff like that but especially anything that involves gameplay right now for me is just no thanks. Really, it's just I don't wanna play the game. I don't feel like grinding this game. I'm not gonna stop creating videos and content because FIFA 20 is right around the corner. We're starting to get a lot of information about FIFA 20 and that's gonna bring, ultimately that's gonna bring people back to FIFA 19 when they start seeing tweets, they start seeing YouTube videos about FIFA 20. People, that's gonna bring a population of players back to FIFA 19 so that they can maybe get ready for FIFA 20 or oh, hey, yeah, FIFA, I need to go play that game. It's gonna just get people thinking about FIFA and that could possibly get them back on FIFA 19. So I don't think that'll affect the market too much but it is something to think about and we're gonna start doing FIFA 20 videos here in the next this week as well. You'll probably see one or two of those. Depending on what type of stuff we do get from EA Sports on their Twitter, releases or live streams they may have about FIFA 20, you'll definitely see me start to talk about some of those things in YouTube videos with stuff that they release. I thought about doing a video on the gameplay fixes and stuff that they put out but I am not a gameplay guy so I kinda shied away from that but we're gonna get some info on Ultimate Team and other modes of the game so I might venture into maybe doing a couple videos on that type of stuff but other than that boys, hopefully you guys are rocking your end game teams. I am very happy with this team. I enjoy it. I just don't enjoy playing this game. I'm gonna be brutally honest. Right now especially, I'm especially feeling it after playing Weekend League going from four and one, getting to seven and three and now I'm like eight and five, eight and six. I've just been really bad gameplay today but you guys don't need to hear about that. That doesn't matter. We're looking ahead to this next week of FIFA Ultimate Team. This is a market outlook video but I talked about a lot of other stuff. Not just a usual market outlook. This is like a heart to heart, you know? About FIFA, about the state of it in my opinion. We're all coming from different places and I respect that but that's another thing I would be curious about. Whatever you're doing in FIFA right now, if you're watching this because you're still trading, if you're just doing upgrade packs or if you just love football and you're still finding yourself on the game of FIFA, let me know down below with that as well. What's keeping you in FIFA right now because yeah, I'm always curious to hear what you guys are doing on FIFA. So if you enjoyed this video, again, smash the thumbs up, comment down below if you have any questions or want to reply to any of the previous questions that I had for you guys and also subscribe to the channel if you're new. It's been Nate, The Foot Accountant. Catch you guys later. Peace, out.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RN61yGVn5Q", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

My name is Jen I'm a certified weight loss and nutrition coach and I'm on the WW or the weight watchers blue plan And I just finished a jazz or size workout. It is Saturday. It is grocery haul day I have a large grocery haul for you from actually three stores I'm also going to share with you some fun Halloween goodies that I picked up and all of the new fall goodies at Trader Joe's that I haven't shown you yet So if you're excited give this video a big huge a thumbs up if you're new or you haven't yet subscribed I would love to have you here hit the subscribe button and click the bell right next to it So you never miss a single video Make sure you check out the description box down below for my two recipe e-books. I have breakfast I have lunch both are only $15 and contain 15 recipes each all WW plan points included and calories. So definitely pick those up. You'll also find nutrition coaching I do offer personalized to you macros and calories as well as one-on-one coaching if you would like to chat with me directly Links discounts to all my favorite things and my Facebook group are also down in that description box So we have a big haul to do lots of fall lots of Halloween. Let's jump in I want to share with you guys my natural grocers haul It's actually the day before I'm doing the majority of my grocery shopping for the week But I found some really exciting new food finds new treats at natural grocers So I want to share with you guys this Tony's Choco Lonelli I actually have purchased these chocolate bars from Imperfect Foods. The chocolate is Amazing so so good, but it's really hard not to eat the entire big chocolate bar So I saw these at natural grocers. These are the milk chocolate caramel sea salt little cluster So you can see they're about the size of a quarter You can have three pieces. They are individually wrapped as you see here for a hundred and forty calories So I thought if I wanted a little chocolate sweet treat I could have one two or even three of these and because they're individually wrapped. I'm less likely to overeat them I've said time and time again that pre-portioned out things or pre-portioning out really helps me So I had to pick these up. I was pretty excited to see those when I was checking out the gal told me about these yum Earth organic candy corn. She said this is the best candy corn She's ever had and I told her I cannot buy candy corn I will eat the entire bag But these are actually little individual Halloween sized snack bags You can have one snack pack for 70 calories. She said that they don't have any weird ingredients They're organic non-gmo gluten-free and they have a really really good ingredient and she said literally it's the best candy corn ever So I had to pick those up and you already know my chocolate love pumpkin spice is my favorite Favorite thing in the entire world. They only had a few bags left in natural grocer So I went ahead and grabbed three that way I don't run out These are also individually wrapped as you see here It is milk chocolate with a pumpkin spice filling the best chocolate the best pumpkin spice flavor You can have three of them for 130 calories. The ingredients are per Perfection so I love them. I probably will go back again before they are gone because that's how much I love them I saw these at the checkout. These are the cocoa melts. So these are coconut milk caramels We've had these before both for and I really like them, but these are pumpkin spice flavored limited edition So I had to pick this little pack up. It is 90 calories for the entire package I'm really excited to try them. Well-fade kombucha was on sale for $2 and 49 cents a bottle Which is a dollar less per bottle than Walmart and Trader Joe's so I bought all my kombucha for the week I picked up one of the pink lady apple the watermelon Tropical punch and cherry berry passion fruit tangerine Grapefruit and then this one. I really like this is the carrot ginger blood orange So I did pick up seven bottles of the kombucha while it was on sale I bought these last time I was at natural grocers, but I picked up the strawberry ones They're so good that this time I got the lemon poppy seed So these are rice cakes covered in white chocolate. They have good ingredients pretty good Not perfect, but good ingredients they come individually packaged in two rice cakes per packet The entire package is only 150 calories So this time I wanted to try the lemon poppy seed and then they always have my very very favorite good culture This is the whole milk 4% cottage cheese. This is my very favorite usually. It's on sale It wasn't this time, but it is cheaper than the other stores that I found this in so I went ahead and picked up two of those So that is my little haul from natural grocers now. Let's jump into my big grocery haul for the week So here is this week's grocery haul I went to Trader Joe's and then I also did Walmart grocery pickup as you saw in the beginning I had a little natural grocers haul to and then I'm going to show you at the end of the grocery haul The fun Halloween stuff that I picked up at our local Michaels craft store We are having a couple friends over for Halloween and then I'm going to insert pictures At the end of all of the fall pumpkin things at Trader Joe's so that you have an idea of what's currently available There for fall so stay tuned for all of that after the grocery haul portion. So let's jump in I picked up a beautiful mom from Trader Joe's. It was only 999. It even comes in this cute fall color to bucket We're going to try this on our front porch again last year the deer ate our mom So we're going to try it again and see if this year they don't eat it I thought it was absolutely stunning and it had tons of really pretty fall colors We're going to a little barbecue on Sunday for Troy's work, and I'm making his favorite macaroni salad The recipe is on my website It's under Troy's pasta salad if you want to check it out, but I needed some cubed ham for that I was going to order turkey pepperoni, but they were sold out at Walmart So I ended up just picking up regular pepperoni for a dinner recipe dinner cut bacon This is a for meal prep as well as a recipe this next week my breakfast meal prep I needed turkey sausage patties and this was the only option at Walmart. These aren't my favorite They kind of have some questionable ingredients, but this was literally the only option So I went ahead and picked up the Jimmy Dean for fully cooked turkey sausage patties a big block of sharp cheddar cheese for Troy's pasta salad for the barbecue some scoop so that he can have this with his French onion dip from Dean's His very very favorite dip so these are for Troy another pack of the Trader Joe's frozen hash browns I've really been craving my hash brown avocado toast I'll show you guys that in Wednesday's what I eat today So stay tuned for that if you haven't seen that recipe white butter for Troy this time I decided to go ahead and get the country crock to try that versus the I can't believe it's not butter some extra creamy whipped cream This is for my meal prep I don't generally buy canned whipped cream because it has carrageenan in it which I try to avoid But I'm going to use this in my meal prep So I decided to go ahead and pick a can up and I had to get the extra creamy my all-time favorite chicken nuggets for my salad This is the earth's best kids chicken nuggets. These are so good Such high quality really good ingredients for a chicken nugget the only place I've been able to find these as Walmart They're about $7 a bag get these if you can you won't be sorry They're really really good. I decided to pick up another container of the coffee mate peppermint mocha coffee creamer I'm filling all the holidays. So I decided to get this for the week I needed a Pillsbury pizza crust for a dinner recipe So I decided to just go ahead and pick the thin one up It was less calories and points than the traditional pizza crust two packages of Pillsbury crescent dough in the sheet form So you can buy them in the roll form or the sheet form and I need this for a dinner recipe This just makes it really easy. It's the same yummy crescent dough that you get in the little rolls But in a sheet form. So these are really convenient for recipes to grab a bottle of my favorite kombucha from Trader Joe's This is the Living in Gratitude fall edition. This one is so good. It's apple turmeric carrot and spices It's very very fally very spicy It's one of my favorites a tiny little can of tomato sauce for a dinner recipe two packages of Sugar-free vanilla jello pudding now, you know, I don't usually do sugar-free anything The jello doesn't bother my stomach at all and this is for a meal prep recipe and it just saves calories and points So I decided to go with sugar-free some honey ham for my lunch meal prep my favorite light mozzarella cheese from Trader Joe's and my favorite shredded light cheese from Trader Joe's two of the Pumpkin cream cheese because they have them in stock and I'm afraid that they're not going to be in stock next time I go so I went ahead and picked up two of them They're good through the month of November will definitely eat these up I've been putting this on the Western bagel pumpkin bagelette the little mini bagels for one point It's so pumpkin-y so fall so good. So I went ahead again and picked up two also two cans of sliced olives I'm making spaghetti for Troy's lunches this next week and olives go into the macaroni salad recipe for the barbecue Light ranch dressing for my salads and I also need this for a dinner recipe Beef broth for a dinner recipe this next week It has been a hot minute since I bought Kodiak cakes But I need these for my breakfast meal prep and I really get more into comfort type of breakfast as the weather gets colder So this will be great to make some protein pancakes during the fall and winter But I definitely picked this up mainly for my meal prep this next week a loaf of organic white bread from Trader Joe's Just so that we had some bread on hand bread and butter chips are my favorite in wraps and in on hamburgers And we were completely out so I picked up the mount olive brand This is one of my favorite brands some dill relish for the macaroni salad Trader Joe's queso cheese This is for the siate chips that I bought at Costco last week I've been wanting to have those with like queso and bean dip So I picked this up to have that as a snack two jars of the prego roasted garlic parmesan sauce for Troy's Spaghetti for his lunches and here are the spaghetti noodles and the elbow macaroni for the pasta salad another box of The pumpkin Trader Joe's dog treats for the you know, who's these are huge So I can break one of this into three different treats for the dogs vegetable broth for a dinner recipe a few more dog Treats these better than leftovers are really cute. They're really soft So they're perfect for Palmer since he's still a puppy and they're small Enough that it's not too much of a treat at one the tangerine la Croy was a substitution I ordered my favorite lemon tello which they didn't have so they went ahead and substituted with the tangerine A big bag of a russet potatoes. I need potatoes for two dinner recipes Everything else is produce. I have a big pack of organic red seedless grapes some celery hearts This is for the macaroni salad as well as for snacking bell peppers for several recipes green onions for a recipe as well as for salad organic lemons for my water and some radishes for the pasta salad So that is everything from Trader Joe's and from walmart Let me show you the cute stuff that I picked up for halloween and then all of the new goodies at Trader Joe's for fall So the first thing I bought at michael's were these cute halloween pillows They have a spider on them and they say boo and they're kind of that burlap material. They're so cute I'm going to put these on my living room couch. These were half off normally 29 99 Half off so made them $15 a piece which I didn't think was bad at all for a throw pillow Also this cute little paper basket that says boo I'm going to put the utensils in here for the get-together a couple of cute wine glasses one that says happy halloween These were about three dollars and fifty cents a piece and they're glass And I thought that these were really cute. We can just use these every halloween and the other one says magic potion So I thought again those would be really really cute lastly some cute trick-or-treat halloween plates And some little napkins that say boo So that's everything that I picked up halloween from michaels. Now, let me show you what's new for fall at Trader Joe's WW grocery haul I hope you enjoyed seeing all the good stuff that I picked up this week my fun halloween decorations All the yummy stuff from natural grocers and of course all the good stuff currently available at Trader Joe's Now remember these items are very limited So make sure you pick them up as soon as possible If you enjoyed another grocery haul give this video a big thumbs up If you're new or you haven't yet subscribed make sure you hit the subscribe button Click the bell next to it so you never miss a single video Don't forget to check out the description box for the two recipe ebooks nutrition coaching links discounts to all my favorite things And lastly, don't forget to join us on facebook.

That changing borders by force should not be part of the reality of Europe anymore. And with the aggression against Ukraine, the Russian leader decided to change this agreement to fight against another country and just to try to get its territory to be Russian. And we cannot accept this and we have to react to this site and vendor and that means supporting Ukraine in defending the own country, Putin must not win. We gave another speech last year in Prague about the future of Europe. Force should not be part of the reality of Europe anymore. But it is also important that we stick to what we said to others, especially the Western Balkan countries, which got the promise to be part of the opinion 20 years ago. It is now 20 years that intentionally this was said. It's about the things that are important for us, the rule of law. And this is the same with Moldova, the same with Ukraine and I think also with Georgia, that we are partners to them, that we make it feasible for them to take the decisions to better their countries, to organize the reforms and then join our strong European family. I think we have a good chance that this will work if we do our task and if we support those who need support for doing so. It's territory to be Russian and we cannot.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ri_6-tA8MA", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

This is my last card of 2020. Don't worry it's not my last card ever. Using some stamps from Purple Onion Designs drawn by Stacy Yakula. You may recall the epic card that I made a while back when they first came out and I had the buildings but I did not have the shopping critters. These little guys have shopping bags and things and they are they're having a nighttime shopping adventure I guess. Maybe they all got just got off work and they're busy shopping before the stores close and I decided to do this and make it a night scene because I wanted the critters to stand out and if I colored everything else in color it's just gonna be a way too busy card. It is 5x7 so it's a little bigger so I could fit both buildings in but just coloring all of this in the B9s, the very desaturated B9 colors makes the buildings kind of recede into the background and that air brushing gives me some soft snow and also creates that light in the foreground where I'm gonna draw my own light pole later on in the doing of the coloring of the card. So that's a little detail about the card itself and the reason that this is my last card is because I start my sabbatical soon. The month of December has become my traditional sabbatical month for a couple of reasons. One is that I'm exhausted by this time of year. There's not a lot of people that do what I do in terms of doing so much content from August through Black Friday that it's this exhausting. A lot of crafters you may know do one video a week, two videos a week or something and not this many. This is just a lot to get through, a lot of content to come up with and I need a break from it and I also need to refill. I always focus on trying to find a way to teach you something. It may not be something epic but I want to teach you something in each video so I'm always trying to come up with new ideas. It's really hard to come up with new ideas when I'm just in that onslaught mode so taking a break is just gonna really help me to get out there, take my own classes on other sites, go take classes in weird things that have nothing to do with card making or painting but that might get my brain going or I do things like watch science videos and I love watching molecules explode or different nature things that just get my mind thinking in a different way so then when I get back to my art I approach things differently. So I plan to do a lot of painting and drawing and who knows what during the month. I will be having videos here on YouTube and I would love it if you'd continue to watch them even if you know it's not a card because you will learn something from it. I mean just watching something get drawn or painted you may look at that and go oh I didn't realize that I should be drawing this portion first and that drawing that portion second. I mean there's just little things like that that you can pick up from watching fine art that are going to apply to your card making. So please do continue to watch otherwise Google thinks that I've disappeared off the planet because everybody stopped watching my videos and I end up with nobody watching my channel and then come January I'm rebuilding and then it takes until like April before I start getting any kind of an audience back and that makes everything else slower and yeah it's just it's a it's a thing just just watch the videos that's all I ask. I may have some live videos intermixed in here I don't really have a schedule for that at the moment will give me a little week or two to get my act together and figure out what I'm going to do and I will post about those on social media as well to let you know what's coming if I figure out that I'm going to do something on a particular day and some of it will be on Facebook or Instagram and some of it will be here on YouTube. It's at least my mental plan at the moment. We'll see how that works out in the long run. Wanted to let you know that there is a sale today not just at Purple Onion because you can go get stamps from them. These stamps that you're seeing are all linked in the doobly-doo but also on my teaching site. My thanks 2020 coupon code today is good for 30% off all adult classes above $20 so it's basically not the minis and not the kids classes and stuff and then tomorrow the same coupon code thanks 2020 all caps will be for 20% off and then Sunday it will be for 15% off throughout the month I'm going to do pop-up sales and you have to watch my social media to know which class is on sale that day and I will have a card made somehow with some element from that class and that will be the one that will be chosen for the day so there's coupon code things on Christmas Day itself 20% off using that coupon code that'll be the last day for it and I do that one on Christmas so that if you get a gift card from Santa if Santa clicks on the give a class button in the menu bar on my website then he can give you a gift card good for classes and you can make it stretch farther if you get your classes on Christmas Day so thanks 2020 will be for the whole month long there are some new classes if you missed the video the other day when I talked about them there's a level 4 blueprint Copic blueprint class for Copic people who want to learn how to draw interiors there's a Bible journaling class that's a fundraiser because I have not been able to do as much charitable giving this year as I would normally like to do just because in comes down and if people join in then maybe I'll feel better about that because at least I can inspire some other people to do some giving there's also a watercolor class that's a mini it's called all season watercolor and that class uses Stacy Yakula stamps which you can get over on her site she's got a bundle of them they're all together plus that class is going to be on a regular sale since it doesn't count with the coupon code so I want you to still be able to get a discount on that one so I'm gonna put that on sale for about a week and the other new classes I'll have on sale next week to in case you miss out on getting them today so that's the four new classes talked about the coupons talked about sabbatical and now I want to tell you something else I have a comment question that I thought I would pose for you today and it comes from my friend Patrick who's in one of my Toastmaster clubs and in Toastmasters one of the things we do is have a section of the meeting we call table topics when you're asked on the fly to answer a question you have two minutes to answer and it's a question you haven't heard before I just talking off the top of your head and trying to make sense while you're doing it and the question that he asked I thought was really profound and it has had me thinking ever since because he said normally people are talking at this time of year about like what are you thankful for what are you grateful for blah blah blah and yeah we'll all do that around the Thanksgiving table but his question was what is it that made 2020 awesome and it kind of made me really stop and think because I'm always saying you know 2020 has been a pretty stinky year and it has been a stinky year it's been kind of a pain in the butt it's a lot of yucky stuff has happened but there's also been some really amazing stuff that's happened and even in my club just hearing people take turns talking about the thing that made this year awesome for them one guy his wife had a baby in March and he just talked about how amazing it's been that he's been home for his baby like he wouldn't have had that time somebody else talked about how much time she had to cook with her boyfriend when they normally you know were commuting from all over the place they would take an hour to get home every night and they'd be exhausted they didn't want to cook together so they did take out and now they're just cooking together and it's really strengthened their relationship and so I want to ask you guys to leave comments on this video about what has made 2020 an awesome year because I take to heart that there were some people in my previous video where I talked about 2020 being kind of poopy that other people took took offense at that because it was a good year for them and I want you to tell me in the comments what makes it a really good year I want to celebrate the things that made it good and let's let's see if we can leave the things that made it a crappy year behind and move on to the good stuff and maybe 2020 won't end up being an epithet where you know oh that's so 2020 is what I'm expecting to happen the year but maybe it won't maybe we can make it into something that's so awesome that it will be a really good thing to say such and such happened in 2020 already I'm gonna get going I will see you guys again soon with some fine art so hang tight there will be more coming on my channel and if you decide to be silly and just go away until come back in January with more card videos than have a merry Christmas and a happy and creative new year and I will see you in January but I hope that I will see you much sooner than that whether in classes or on social media or here on YouTube my fine art stuff all right I'll see you later take care guys bye bye	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RHw0DeAG_0",

We're going to come back there in a few minutes, but what are we doing tonight? We're looking at Paul Harvey's 1965 essay, If I Were the Devil. This is the fifth sermon on this essay. We've gone through about three quarters of it so far. We're going to finish it up this evening. And what we're doing is we're looking at the words. Basically, you know, Paul Harvey wrote this essay in 1965. And it has some very thoughtful and in many times biblical explanations for what's actually happening to our country today. So we're going to finish this up this evening. But so far what we've talked about is how, you know, the devil has corrupted the churches in the United States of America. He's corrupted the churches. He's corrupted what those churches teach and what those churches preach and what those churches don't teach and preach. Then, of course, he's also corrupted the Bible is the next sermon that we had in this series. And then by corrupting the Bible, then he looked at in the essay talked about the sin and the media and how things just keep getting worse and worse and worse in this country. And then last week, we looked at division. And this is where there was a little bit of a correction that we needed to make because Paul Harvey was saying that the devil was for division. And I showed you from the Bible that is actually Jesus that brings division. The devil is trying to unify people in this country. It is the devil that says, let's come together. Let's meet in the middle. This is Satan's plan. This is not Jesus's plan. Jesus said, I come to bring division. And that is the problem. But anyway, the point is that the observation was still there. You know, he had this wrong. It's the devil that's trying to get unity. Of course, we'll see that in the end times. We'll see that with the Antichrist and the one world government. That's going to take some unity. That's going to take people leaving what they believe and meeting in the middle for unity. That's what Satan wants. So those are the first four sermons. Let's wrap things up tonight. I probably could have had about three or four more sermons, but I'm just going to go through and I'm going to wrap things up this evening with a few more thoughts. And there's one kind of main theme that I want to hit tonight, but keep your place in 1 Kings chapter 21. And we're going to come back to the story of Naboth's vineyard in a little bit. But let me just read for you. Continue on Paul Harvey's essay. Quote, let's continue. Within a decade, so this is if I were the devil, within a decade, I'd have prisons overflowing. I'd have judges promoting pornography. Soon I could evict God from the courthouse, then from the schoolhouse, then from the houses of Congress. So right here, it demonstrates why this shows as all these things happen, I'd have prisons overflowing. I'd be able to take God out of all these institutions, the schools, the courthouses, and even Congress itself. Right here demonstrates why Satan, going back to the first sermon, why Satan had to corrupt the churches first. He had to corrupt the churches first. This had to be, and this will always be Satan's plan. I've said it many times, but this country, when this country is in complete shambles and it's over, this will be true. It was lost first from the pulpit in this country. It was lost first from the pulpit. That's why in part one, he starts the essay by saying, I'd subvert the churches first. And that's exactly what Satan did. Because look, the local church is the first line of defense. It's the grassroots of God's word in every community across America. And if there's not a good local church in every city, that's where everything goes wrong. But then, so he corrupts the church and he starts corrupting the church by corrupting the church doctrine, by getting people to change the Bible itself. Look, where there was somebody in a Bible-believing church, none of these things would be possible. Look, they wouldn't, and here's another thing. You know, as we remove God from the courthouse and God from the schoolhouse and all these things, here's the thing. Personally talking to me today, I wouldn't want whatever God they're referring to in our current society today, anywhere near my children's school anyway. This is why we're homeschooling. This is why we homeschool. This, I mean, because the God that was in the schools, even back when Paul Harvey wrote this essay, was completely corrupted at this point. Because churches already had been corrupted. Churches had stopped preaching the Bible. So I wouldn't want any school, any public school teaching my children anything about God today. This is why we homeschool. This is why you have to homeschool because God, I mean, now God is completely out of the public school. However, before he was even completely out, he was replaced with a corrupt version. Let's continue. Let's continue. Quote, and in his own churches, I would substitute psychology for religion and deify science. Now, let me correct there. I would correct that statement. I would say falsify science because many times I've shown you from the Bible that the Bible is extremely scientific. The Bible has never been scientifically proven wrong. So don't buy into this idea that if you believe the Bible, you're against science wrong. The Bible is very scientific. The Bible talks about everything. The Bible talks about physics. The Bible talks about time. The Bible talks about engineering. The Bible talks about math. The Bible talks about everything. I would lure, he continues, I would lure priests and pastors into misusing boys and girls and church money. If I were the devil, I'd make the symbols of Easter and egg and the symbol of Christmas a bottle. But ultimately, what he's talking about here, this is me now. He's ultimately talking about the doctrine and God has been corrupted in the churches. And by corrupting the doctrine, look, this is why doctrine matters in churches. Because of, you know, I would lure priests and pastors into misusing boys and girls. We'll get to that in a minute. Turn to Mark chapter nine. Turn to Mark chapter nine. But this is why doctrine matters, folks. Doctrine matters. We met a guy out today on the street that talked to my wife and he asked my wife, he said, well, what kind of charity do you guys do? He had no, he had no interest. My wife is showing him the Bible, like I can show you how you can know you're going to go to heaven. Would you like to hear the gospel? Would you like to know how you're going to have eternal life? Zero interest. He's like, but what kind of charity do you do? Because I have, he had his own religion that he made up in his house or something. And he wanted to know what kind of charity to do. Do we go out and feed the homeless? These are examples that he's giving as far as what we do for charity. And my wife said, well, this is what we do. We go out and we preach the gospel. We go out and we show people how they can go to heaven. We go out and we show people how they can pass from death to life. That's, that's what we do. What is charity? Charity means love. But you see how if you have no doctrine, if there's no doctrine, all churches can just get together and just go out and hand out diapers in Mexico or whatever because there's no doctrine. It doesn't matter. You're just doing something that seemed, it's seemingly good. Let's go out and feed stray cats. There's charity right there. But if there's no doctrine, unity is achieved. If there's no doctrine, Satan's plan is achieved. There must be doctrine. Why? I mean, he points it out here. He says, you know, pastors into and priests misusing boys and girls. What he's talking about is child abuse. 1965. Think about the things that have happened since 1965 in churches. And I hate even using the word churches in these cases. Look at Mark chapter nine and verse number 42. Let's look at the doctrine of Jesus Christ. Jesus says, and whosoever shall offend, you know what that means? That means hurt. You know, misuse, I, I, you know, give me a break. I mean, he's trying to lightly say a horrible thing here is what he's trying to do. He says, you know, whosoever shall offend, that means hurt. One of these little ones, he's talking about children that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged around his bed, his neck, and he were cast into the sea. Jesus, Jesus has been faked in churches today too. Jesus has been faked in churches today too to believe that he's just this, this soft, soft, you know, love everybody no matter what. God, it's fake. Jesus is saying anybody that hurts a child, it'd be better if they were drowned in the sea. He's like, because when I get him, it's going to be way worse than that. All Burnham in the lowest parts of hell is what Jesus is getting at here. Go to Romans chapter one. Look, this is why doctrine matters. This is why doctrine matters. Jesus said his church, the true church, the gates of hell will not prevail against it. But it sounds like these churches that Paul Harvey is talking about, it sounds like the gates of hell have been opened in these churches. I mean, if you can't expect your children to be safe in church, what's the problem? How did this happen? Because the doctrine, that's why. It's the doctrine. As a matter of fact, this one right here is just one doctrine. You say, how many doctrines must have gone bad to where children are actually being harmed in church? One. Just one. It's that serious. It's that serious. Go to Romans chapter one. Look at verse number 26. Romans chapter one and verse number 26. This is the importance of doctrine because by just forgetting one doctrine and just deciding, you know what? I don't like preaching this doctrine because this offends some people. By not preaching one doctrine, I endanger every child in this church. Every single one. And the gates of hell will prevail against the church like that. Look at Romans chapter one and verse number 26. For this cause, these are people that they didn't glorify God. They changed the word of God. They didn't believe God. They turned their back on God. These are evil people that turned against God. And in verse 26 he says, for this cause, because they did that, God says, God gave them up to vile affections. Look, somebody that would harm a child, that's a vile thing. That's not a normal thing. That's an unnatural thing. And that's why if you read Romans one, you will see that word come up again. Natural, unnatural, natural, unnatural, unnatural, inconvenient, not convenient. That means this is not normal. Something has happened there. Something has gone wrong there. The Bible's explaining what has gone wrong here. God has given these people up. And then these vile affections came in for even their women to change the natural. There it is, the natural use into that which is against nature. Likewise, also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman burned in their lust towards one another. Men with men working that which is unseemly and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error, which was meat. Even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, again, God gave them over to a reprobate mind. That means rejected. That means they've been rejected because they did not like to retain God in there and they became unnatural because of that. And this talking about homosexuality. And you could just put under unnatural all these other things that you see out there. Because you can't even keep track of them anymore. And this is why right here, that if you just decide, oh, you know, it's just another sin, all these unnatural things. Oh, have you never seen, are you perfect brother? And you just allow this unnaturalness inside the church? That's what happens. You endanger the children of the church because you're not following the doctrines of the Bible. It's very simple. You say, I've heard this before. Well, you know what? Some things are going to be repeated in this church because just this one doctrine can destroy the whole church. If we decide, oh, you know, I don't think it's politically correct to talk about, you know, homosexuality and unnaturalness. And I don't even know like all the different terms now. And I don't even want to speak those terms. But the Bible says that those people have been given over, they've been rejected, which is why they're not coming here ever. And the gates of hell will not prevail against this place as long as we follow the Bible. That's all we have to do. That's it. One doctrine. This is why you must, you destroy the doctrine, you destroy the churches, and we'll get into what comes after that later. Paul Harvey continues. If I were the devil, I'd take from those. Now it's a different paragraph. Now he says, if I were the devil, he said, I'd take from those that have and give to those who want until I had killed the incentive of the ambitious. Ooh, there's a lot in that one sentence. Right there. Turn to 1 Timothy chapter six or just look at the front of your bulletin. You know what that reminds me of? It reminds me of kind of what we talked about this morning. But look at the front of your bulletin where the Bible says, but they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare. They that want money just for the sake of having money. He's talking about communism in this sentence. He's talking about socialism in this sentence. Now here's the big lie about communism and socialism in this country. See, the big lie is the socialists will go out there and they'll say, oh well, capitalism and a free market, those people are just greedy. Those people are just greedy and they can't get enough. Turn to Proverbs chapter 13 and they want to take from those that have and give to those that want. But here's the thing, turn to Proverbs chapter 13 and look at verse number four. Look at Proverbs chapter 13 and verse number four. Here's the problem right here with these people with the socialists today. The Bible says the soul of the sluggard, that's the lazy person. The soul of the sluggard desireth and hath nothing. Now notice that right there. It doesn't say the soul of the sluggard hath nothing and is just happy having nothing. This is the problem right here. Now if the socialists today was like, you know what? All these rich people and all these people that are going in these capitalists, you know, they just they're too greedy and they didn't want anything. At least they would be pure in their in their philosophy. But instead they're saying they have too much. They're too greedy. I want it. That's what they're saying. And the Bible says the exact same thing in Proverbs 13.4. It says the soul of the sluggard. You got to underline this verse. There's word right here. Desireth. He's not lazy sitting in his house or sitting wherever he's sitting. Just being like, yeah, I'm just lazy. I don't want to work and I'm fine. He's like, no, I don't want to work and I want I want your stuff. I want what they have. But I want to keep sitting here. And I want to do nothing. That's the big lie right there. Turn to Hebrews chapter 13. That's the big lie is it's not that they're just lazy. It's that they desire. They desire what others have. And you know, I think the Bible has a word for that. Look at Hebrews 13. Look at verse number five. Hebrews 13 and verse number five. The Bible says, let your conversation be without covetousness. And what and be content with such things as you have. Look, the Bible covetousness, the definition of covetousness is right here. It is not being content with what you have. So you want what other people have. That's what's going on today. That's what we see today. And another problem with communism, and this is turned back to First Kings chapter 21. Now we're going to see some communism, some philosophies of communism in the Bible in First Kings chapter 21. But the big problem with communism, the big problem with communism is that it always needs force. You always have to use force to implement it. It always needs to be implemented through violence is the problem. What do we see going on in First Kings 21? We see a guy that wants something. He wants something that somebody else has. Look at verse, look at verse number two. An Ahab. I mean, just forget that Ahab is the king here for a minute. I mean, he's kind of the guy that wants it. In this case, it's pretty convenient being Ahab, because the guy that wants it also has the ability to get it through violence. Look at verse number two, an Ahab spake on an Ahab, Nabeth saying, give me thy vineyard that I may have it for a garden of herbs, because it's near unto my house. Think he wants to plant vegetables. I mean, think about this story for a second. And think about how it turns out, because it's near to my house, and I'll give it to thee for a better vineyard than it. Or if it seemed good to thee, I'll give you the worth of it and money. Nabeth just didn't want to sell. It was in his family. It meant something more than money to him. And Nabeth said to Ahab, the Lord forbid at me that I should give the inheritance of my father's unto thee. And Ahab came into his house heavy and displeased, because the word would Nabeth, the Nabeth, the Jezreelite spoken unto him for he had said, I will not give thee the inheritance of my father's. And he laid him down upon the bed and turned away his face and would eat no bread. Won't sell me the vineyard. And his wife comes to him and says, you know, what's going on? Then his wife, she's just a, this is just a peach, this gal, Jezebel. And you wonder why people don't, you know, have kids like, you know, how many Jezebel children do you know? This is why. And he said unto her, say, why is thy spirit so sad thou eatest no bread? And he said unto her, because I spake unto Nabeth the Jezreelite and said unto him, give me the vineyard for money or else if it please thee, and I will give thee another vineyard for it. And he answered, I will not give thee my vineyard. And Jezebel, his wife said unto him, does thou now govern the kingdom of Israel? She's like, hello, you're the king. Like, take it. Arise and eat bread and let thy heart be merry. I will give thee the vineyard of Nabeth the Jezreelite. Then look at verse 15. Then she makes up this scheme to falsely accuse Nabeth. You know, they kind of control the government so they can do whatever they want. And then in verse 15, and it came to pass when Jezebel heard that Nabeth was stoned. They killed him. They killed him. It was dead that Jezebel said to Ahabarize and take possession of the vineyard. So look, here's the reason that you need violence to enforce communism. Because typically people just don't want to give you what they've worked for. So you have to point a gun in their face. That's basically what you have to do. That's the government. That's that's what government regulation is, by the way. Don't you ever forget that. We always get so used to regulation, but government regulation is a gun pointed in your face. That's what it is. Follow these rules or else. You know, look, Romans 13 tells us that if the laws that the government have match the laws of the Bible, it's all good. But we are way beyond that today. We are way beyond that today. All these regulations, business regulations, some of you were talking to me about last week. Do this. Do that. But you know, it always turns into pay this and fees. And you know what? Or else. Or else. We'll shut your business down. We'll put you in prison. You know what? And if you don't do any of that, we'll kill you. That's what it comes down to. You know, 1 Corinthians 511, you know what one of the things that are, there's six things that are not allowed in church. You know what one of those things are? Extortion. And you know what extortion is? Extortion is, you know, threatening people for money. That's what it is. You see folks, it's these people that are pushing this back to 1 Timothy chapter 9 and verse number 6. Back to the front of your bulletin. It's these people that are pushing this. They're the greedy ones. Because they're coveting other people's property. Look, it's the guy on welfare who's the greedy one. He's greedy. He wastes. And he wants more and more. It's the guy on the corner. He's the very definition of just wanting money for the sake of money. Look, he just wants the guy standing there on the corner. He just wants money. There's no labor. There's no building. There's no service. There's no making a product. He just wants the money. And he wants your money. There's no benefit to society. It's just money. It's just money. There's no family to support. There's no 1st Timothy 5A. It's just money. That's it. And we learn from this morning, you ought to not go out and make money just for the sake of money. Just for the sake of the money itself. It is to serve the Lord with your life. It is to support your family. It is to follow the commandments that God has laid out for your life in the Bible. Money's a tool. But somebody that just wants your money for the sake of having your money. Look, that's the definition of greed and covetousness. Let's continue. He says, and tell. He says, until I had killed the incentive of the ambitious. Now, if you know some things about economics, you know that there's a very specific wording there. Incentive. He's saying, he's like, what is he talking about? He's saying, he's like, look, a society and the prosperity of a society is all about incentives. It's all about incentives. And guess what? The Bible is no different. Turn to Joshua chapter 23. The Bible is no different. Remember Joshua? In Joshua chapter 23, what is he saying? What is he pleading with the people? He's saying, don't forget the Lord. Don't forget the Lord. Don't forget the Lord. But then he gives them some incentives at the end of the chapter. Look at verse 16. He's saying over and over again, please don't forget the Lord. He's old. He knows he's gonna die. Verse 16, he says in Joshua 23, 16, he says, when you have transgressed the covenant of the Lord your God, which he commanded you, and have gone and served other gods, he's saying, here's what's gonna happen if you don't listen to what I'm saying. And have gone and served other gods and bowed yourselves to them, then shall the anger of the Lord be kindled against you, and you shall perish quickly from off the good land, which he hath given you. He's saying, look, he's like, you want to keep this land that you just, that we just all fought for, that the Lord gave to us, that the Lord fought for us. You want to keep this? He's like, you better follow the Lord. There's your incentive. He's giving them an incentive. Life is all about incentives, and the Bible is no different. Think about your Christian life. What are the incentives? I mean, think about it. I mean, think about it. You know, our salvation is free. I was saved because I trusted on the Lord Jesus Christ. That's it. If you're saved today, it's because you trusted on Jesus, and you were saved in a moment. And there's nothing that will ever change that. You go out and be a drug dealer. You go out and rob a bank. Don't do this stuff, kids. These are just examples. But look, you go out and do these bad things. You're not going to lose your salvation. You're saved no matter what. You're eternally saved. You're sealed by the Holy Spirit once you trusted in that moment. That was it. But what are my incentives? Well, I don't know. Here's one for me. I just want to be in God's good graces. I just want to follow the Lord that saved me. I just want to follow the Lord that gave me this free gift that I didn't have to work for, that I didn't deserve. You know, just character. How's that? But how's this? I want to avoid chastisement in my life because my Heavenly Father is going to beat me with many stripes because I know what's wrong. And then I go and I do them anyway. Look, I'm going to pay for that on this earth. Look, sin destroys. Sin destroys people. It destroys their life. It will destroy your life on this earth. Especially God's not going to let you get away with anything in this world. He's not going to take away your salvation. He promised you that. But you can ruin your life on this earth. That's an incentive. I don't want to. Look, I not only want to not ruin my life, I want to have a life that is profitable to other people. There's a spectrum there, completely ruined, very profitable to other people. That's what I want. I want to be over here somewhere. That's the incentive that we have as Christians. It's to serve the Lord that saved us and be in his good graces and have profitable lives on this earth. Nobody wants to waste their life, yet so many people do. So Paul Harvey is talking about communism. He's talking about how it will make people lazy in this sentence. He's saying it will kill their ambition. It will take those that are providing. Think about this. This is biblical. To go out and labor six days a week, as we talked about this morning. You go out and you labor six days a week with all thy might and you provide for your family. Look, that is biblical. That's what you're doing. Satan needs to destroy that. Satan can't have a bunch of Christians out there that are doing what they're supposed to do. So Satan's like, this is a problem. I need to kill this ambition. Enter communism. Paul Harvey saw this. Turn to 2 Peter chapter 1. Paul Harvey saw this coming. He saw this in 1965. In 1965, he saw this. You see, we are a problem for Satan. Satan is destroying this country and we can look at it and we can read this essay and we can see how completely and how brilliantly this is being done and how successfully it's being done. But you are still a problem. The Bible believing Christian who is trying to be profitable to others because guess what Bible believing Christian that still goes to church and still believes the Bible and still believes the doctrines and still goes out. So, oh, you're going out telling other people. You're going out trying to make other people more profitable. We're not going out trying to get other people to come with us passing out diapers. We are coming. We are trying to get other people to come with us to preach the gospel to people so people don't go to hell. That's what we're trying to do. That's what we're trying to do. And we're making more of ourselves. We are multiplying ourselves. This is a problem for Satan. This is a problem. He must destroy this. Look at 2 Peter chapter 1 in verse number 10. Wherefore, wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you shall fall when? When will the devil take you down? If you are diligent in your Christian life, when will the devil be able to destroy you? Never. I mean, these are promises that the Bible gives us. Hello, why don't we read this more? I mean, the Bible is telling us, the Bible says that if you do these things in the Bible, if you follow my word, Satan will never get you. He will never take you down, ever. Satan's like, that's not going to work. Not going to work for me. He's got to kill that diligence. He's got to destroy that ambition. Satan's goal is to bring you down, folks. He's like, he can't bring you to hell, but he can make you unprofitable. He can put you over on this side of the unprofitable wicked servant. He can cause you to stumble. Here's an analogy. And I don't know if this analogy actually happened, but it's a pretty good analogy as far as what communism will do to people's ambition. There was an economics professor at a university. I'll tell you the story. He said he had never failed a single student before, but had once failed an entire class. The class had insisted that socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich. A great equalizer. Sounds pretty good. The professor then said, okay, we'll have an experiment in this class on socialism. All grades will be averaged. And everyone that would receive the same grade, so no one would fail and no one would receive an A. After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset, and students who studied little were happy. But as the second test rolled around, here's the problem. The students who studied little studied even less. And the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride, too. So they studied little. The second test average was a D and no one was happy. When the third test rolled around, the average was an F. The scores never increased as bickering blame, name calling of all kinds resulted in hard feelings, and no one would study for anyone else. All failed to their great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism would ultimately fail as well because the harder to succeed, the greater the reward. But when a government takes all the reward away, no one will try to succeed. That's a nice little analogy right there. You can kind of feel this today. You know, it used to be an embarrassing thing to say you were getting government assistance for something. People wouldn't really, now it's almost like this badge of honor people wear. Like, oh, I'm getting this. And you know, it almost makes other people feel like, man, maybe I should be getting something. Everybody else is getting all this free stuff, and I'm not, I mean, it makes people feel bad about it. Same thing as this analogy here. But look, this is where we are today. This is where we are today, and it kills people's ambition, even biblical ambition of wanting to work hard, support your family, Paul Harvey saw it in 1965. This is where we are. So first, just an overview here. We destroy the churches. We destroy the Bible. And the doctrines that go along with that Bible. But then guess what else we destroy? Paul Harvey continues, and he concludes. He concludes. He says, and what do you bet after all this has been destroyed, the Bible, the doctrines, the morality, really? And what do you bet I could get whole states to promote gambling as the way to get rich? I would caution against extremes and hard work in patriotism, in moral conduct. I would convince the young that marriage is old fashioned, that swinging is more fun, that what you see on TV is the way to be. I would put fornication in there instead of swinging, and there's never been more people under the age of 30 unmarried in this country ever. Marriage just isn't, and quite frankly, if you're not following the Bible, why in the world would you get married? It's just risk. Any woman will shack up with any guy today. Fornication is just because, look, they destroyed the Bible. They destroyed the doctrines. And guess what? Then you know what else you destroy? The morality, the morality. And thus he continues, I could undress you in public, and I could lure you into bed with diseases for which there is no cure. You know, I read an article before I came to church today that California has an epidemic of STDs. You can explain what that is to your kids later. They have an epidemic, so what are they doing? What's the answer? They're pushing to have at-home STD tests. This is the answer. This is what they're going with, because guess what? They've destroyed the Bible. They've destroyed the doctrines. And you know what? They're going to destroy the people. That's what's happening. Diseases, that there is no cure. How about teaching against fornication, like the Bible does? How about teaching for marriage, like the Bible does? How about instilling the morality, like the Bible does? But no, that's been destroyed. So what do we do? We need more tests. We need more tests. What in the world is that going to do? What in the world is that going to do? I'd address you in public, he says. I mean, look, we've convinced women and girls and ladies to walk around dressed like prostitutes that that's the right way, because they've literally destroyed the people. We've convinced women through this wicked idea of feminism, we've convinced women and young girls that they have no value. That's what we've convinced them. That's what we've told them. We told them, hey, dress like this, because that's what the carnal person that wants to commit fornication wants to see. And you know what? Your value is not your heart and your soul. And the fact that you should be a loving mother to teach the Bible to your children one day, that your value is your body. That's it. What in the world? How is this okay? And people look at us and think we're weird. If I were the devil, I'd just keep right on doing what he's doing. Paul Harvey, good day. You have to listen to it on the radio through his voice to really capture it. But the whole essay, folks, in a nutshell is that once all these things are gone, once I get rid of the Bible, once I get rid of the churches, once I get rid of the doctrines, then I can destroy the people. That is the whole idea of the essay. And you know what? That's exactly what the Bible teaches. I mean, I can destroy their morality. I can destroy their ambition. And ultimately, I can destroy their lives. And you know what? Saved and unsaved. I can make it to where the Christian, the Bible-believing Christian, is worthless. And I can make it to where the unsaved never hears the truth. And then I can bring the whole country down. This is the stage that we are at today, folks. I mean, look, we are a destroyed people. You could look at it. If you're looking at the majority of this country, we're a destroyed people today. Because of Satan's plan, it's very far along. It's very far along. But the optimistic view is this, is that every person, you know what? Every person has a conscience. Let me give you two thoughts. Let me give you two thoughts and just not depress you at the beginning of the new year. But look, first of all, every person has a conscience. Every single person, when they're born, has the law written in their heart. And they have a conscience that must be corrupted. Normally, left alone, left, I mean, a person has God's law written in their heart. That's why people just know that murder's wrong. They just know. Like some person in some South American country that's never even seen civilization, they'll just know that murder's wrong because God wrote the law in everyone's heart. The Bible tells us this. Romans 2.15. So every person has a conscience. That's why, as the people are destroyed, that's why you stand out. And you know what? That's why there's so much opportunity. That's why there's so much opportunity for an 18 or 19 or 20-year-old kid who comes out and he just wants to just work hard. And just, you know, get married and provide for his family. People look at him like, whoa, what in the world? Shows up for work every day. That's weird. There's so much opportunity out there because people, the boss, the owner of the company, still has a conscience. Still looks at somebody like that and says, that's good. They still know that all these unnatural things that are going on out there, they know they're wrong. They may not have the courage or a pastor or a church that they go to that will stand up against these things, but they know because it's written right there. And so they know. So there is a ton of opportunity for the Bible-believing Christian today. Oh, the advantage that is out there because you know what? People still have a conscience. You know, all these people that have been rejected and given over and they're reprobates and they can't, you know, they're unnatural now. That's a very small percentage of people. Most people still have a conscience. So there's a lot of opportunity for those that still, and just think of the low-hanging fruit that's out there for us because we need to go out there and we need to teach the Bible to people because guess what? They still have a conscience. We need to go out there and read, hey, you know, I know this is what you're seeing today and they don't like it, by the way. They don't like it. They're like, I don't know. I don't like it. I don't want to say anything. I don't want to get in trouble, but I like this stuff. And we go out there and we teach them what the Bible says and you know what they're going to do? They're going to put that key in the conscience, in the lock that is the conscience of their heart and it's going to fit. And they're going to get saved. And they're going to get in church and then you know what? We got the answers for them here. We can show them how they can raise those kids in this wicked world. We can show them how they can, you know, in this wicked world, how you can still raise world-class educated kids that have a biblical worldview in a messed up world, in a messed up country. This is why the devil needs to get rid of us. This is why you need to be careful. This is why you need to read the Bible because you're a danger to this plan and don't forget that, especially as you're out there soul-winning, weekend and week out. You have a target on your back. You have a target on your forehead because the devil needs to destroy you in order to complete his plan. But it's very, very foreseeing in 1965 to write something like this. So I'm glad we got a chance to look through it in light of the Bible. Let's bow our heads and have a word of prayer.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rt_YElPkIg", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

بالاشتغالي بالعلم ولا تبغي به ما عشت يا دا دا دا لا وياله من شراف عظيمي now we're going to move on to the next root cause that brings about deviation and that is الحزبية الحزبية means sectarianism to be fanatic towards a particular group a particular individual if a person has his bia in him if a fanatic he's got fanaticism he definitely has to go against the قاعدة قاعدة انكار المنكر preventing evil and fighting against that which is harmful ونصح لله وليه رسولي advising the people to Allah and His Messenger he won't be able to do that if a person has his bia in him he can't do انكار المنكر because his bia is actually in a position to انكار المنكر ونصح لله وليه رسولي advising the people and calling them to Allah and His Messenger the reason why he can't do that is حتى لا يتفرق جمع الحزب he says that the group is going to be divided if I speak the truth if I talk that the group نعم he can't and the efforts of the group is going to become divided so because of that I won't be able to so he leaves off something which is حق the حق that he can't do and he can't fulfill which is انكار المنكر ونصح لله وليه رسولي he's not able to do it because of the group that he's from and the group that he is in وليه ذلك this is something that even the علماء the early scholars have pointed this out كشيخ الاسلام التيمية other than him شيخ الاسلام التيمية he says in his كتاب اقتباء سراط المستقيم لمخالفة أصحاب الجحيم the first volume page 86 شيخ الاسلام ابن التيمية he says the following he says he said this is tested with many people who attribute themselves to a particular group a particular sect in knowledge are we deal or in the religion they attribute themselves to a particular group in matters of knowledge or a deal or in the religion such as those who claim to have فق or will متصوفة or those who claim to have تصوف or غيرهم or other than them so for example you find فق issues meaning what اهل المدهب people have them adhub اهل التصوف who follow a particular طريقة or other than that for us today is going to be all the ahzab that we see today اخوان المسلمين حزب التحرير التبليغ حدث ولا حواج او او those groups if you look at them today they fall under this او الى رئيس المعظم عندهم في الديني غير النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم or they attribute themselves to a leader who is respected in the issues of the religion other than the prophet so there is a particular person now before the hizbih was for a group or it can actually be for a particular person pay attention to this that the issue of the thing that the person is attributed themselves to is not issues of علم or deen it is الى رئيس المعظم a leader that they honor here means a person of knowledge based so there is a fulan he is a sheikh of this country for instance everybody has تعظيم for him في الديني in matters of the religion that person isn't a prophet فإنهم لا يقبلون من الديني so they don't accept the religious matters رأيا ولا ورواية opinions or narrations إلا ما جاء تبهي طائفة to accept if it comes from the taifa that they attribute themselves to the taifa can either be here the group that they are from or they only accept it if the sheikh that they that they respect that they honor that they look up to say it انهم لا يعلمون but they don't know what to جبهوا طائفة to that which their group necessitates from their belief مع أن دين الإسلام يجب التباع الحق مطلقة even that though the religion of Islam it obliges in following the truth unrestrictedly رواية ورائيا in terms of narrations in terms of opinions من غير تعيين الشخص without specifying a person أو طائفة or a group غير الرسول غير الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم other than the messenger عليه الصلاة والسلام شخص سلام is saying that the people are tested tested here means that they are tried with this issue is that they attribute themselves to a particular group in matters of the religion they say we're from this taifa we're from this group we're from this group we're from this group we're from this group we're from this group we're from this group we're from this group and runs the program and runs everything that معظم in the group of course it's not the messenger عليه الصلاة والسلام so they don't accept anything unless the group and that it comes from the leader and then the group execute what he says so the truth is only what comes from here if anybody comes outside that's not part of the group and says يا إخوة الكرام this is the shara'a this is the ruling of the shari'a in this matter فإنهم لا يقبلونها they don't accept that and they reject it and they turn it away and they turn away from it pay attention to this when in reality ابن تيمى is saying that the religion of al-Islam commands us to follow the truth unrestrictedly from whoever it comes from whether it is narrations so here means that if the narrations come from أهل القوفة or it comes from أهل حجاز or it comes from بصرا it doesn't or misr or other than that no land is given virtue in terms of knowledge being taken from it another place or a group it can be a shafi' it can be a hambali it can be a there's no restriction of it being taken from a particular group or even من غير تعيين شخص or a specific individual you can't say I'm not going to take this opinion اللي شيخ فوزان سيزل هذا غير صحيح if another anima said it why are you going to restrict the acceptance of the truth on a particular person that's even if that's if the person is إيمان من أيما تسونا إيمان من أيما تسونا الشيخ صالح الفوزان right now if he's an iman as a man of علم رصوخ if we still don't restrict حقق to him if another anima brings evidences we take it حتى إذا طالب علم brings the truth we take it we don't restrict it to الشيخ صالح الفوزان or we don't restrict it عبد المحسابات we don't restrict to a particular person let alone if that person is a misguided person why are you going to restrict it to him he's not even a person of knowledge and he's not a person of what? the authority if matter gets worse أو طائفة إن غير رسول or you specifically said only when this my group says this I take it and anyone who today looks at the groups that are out there will clearly if he's a monstef if he's a monstef if he's a monstef fair person you will realise that this is very common on so many different people that they will only take the truth from a person who respects their الشيخ خلاص you respect my teacher do you respect this man you don't say anything about him okay بارك الله I remember one time I was invited at a masjid they invited me and I went to the masjid and they said to me what do you say about so and so this is not spubs so many people think this was the spubs it's the other side of spubs they invited me and they interrogated me regarding a particular person أسي أخي أنا عرفه I don't know the person you're talking about I don't know much about him I have no knowledge of this particular individual I don't know him and they said to me okay no problem as long as you don't say anything bad about him so this issue of حزبية عقد الولاء والبراء basing love and hate on a particular individual يا إخو هذه this is one of the things that what it's a root cause that deviate people from the straight path from the حق because why فإن الحية لا تؤمنوا علي الفتنة فإن الحية لا تؤمنوا علي الفتنة the one who is alive you cannot assure that they are free from trials and tribulations how many people who had knowledge and understanding of the religion but they apostated or they turned away from the religion if you connect your religion to the people then your religion is going to be destroyed are you with me brothers ولذلك what did the salaf used to say they used to say this is a very common statement of theirs they used to say I know the truth you know the truth I know the truth then you know who is carrying the truth and who is following the truth don't do the opposite that try to find the truth through the people that basically this person is the truth so anything that's in accordance to what he said is the truth that's not right that's not right that's wrong that is that this sheikh رحم الله is talking about him now this can be spread on different spectrums it can be spread on the overwhelming majority of Muslims today that's the issue they have ولذلك الشيخ العلامة فقيه الزمان بحمد الصالح رحمه الله he sent in his book كتاب العلم the book of knowledge right and he's translated in English he says يجب على طالب العلم أن يتخلع عن الطائفية والحزبية بحيث يعقد ولا أول برا على طائفة معينة أو على حزب حزب واحد ينضعون تحت قول الله تعز وجلة هو سماكم المسلمين من قبل بحمد الصالح يقول it is obligatory on every student of knowledge rather I can say that this is obligatory on every single Muslim but the author said on a student of knowledge because the book is talking about and he's talking and he's addressing who the students of knowledge what is it that they have to do themselves with أن يتخلع عن الطائفية والحزبية he has to get rid of and dismiss and eradicate from himself sectarianism بحيث يعقد ولا أول برا so what's the sectarianism that the author is talking about بحيث يعقد ولا أول برا على طائفة معينة أو على حزب where he bases allegiance and he bases this association on a particular group فهذا لا شك خلاف منهج السلاف this opposes the man had his self this opposes man had his self السلاف الصالح ليس أحزابا the salaf of the righteous were not groups هم حزبوا واحد they are one particular group they are the muslims they are the believers the muslims ينضون تحت قول الله تعالى and all of them brought them together هو السماكم المسلمين من قبل الله تعالى تعالى we have called you believers مسلمين before look at the statement of the author here which he says بحيث يعقد ولا أول برا على طائفة معينة أو على حزب معين today there are people if you satan يا أخي this taifa this particular group is misguided and there are many ملاحظات there are many mistakes that they are held against اجماعات that they have they have head butted so what can we say so why have you still why are you still fanatic about this particular group the minute you do that you lose allegiance you lose the brotherhood you lose disassociation based on what based on what على طائفة المعينة a particular group you go to abrilby you say why you go to you say to him why you go to you say why all of them you ask them why why this particular group these are the mistakes that this group has 1 2 3 4 5 6 يا أخي حديث ولا حرج the list goes on I'm just giving you just a minute a very small amount of mistakes that they have مجلدات volumes have been written about this if it was the books and the stuff that has been written on it if you threw in the ocean the ink might change the ocean يا أخي it's too much مع دائليك you're still fanatic about it you're still consistent in arguing for them and then guess what you lose you lose so all of the narrations that they were saying before that of what أخي smile in the face of your Muslim brother يا أخي show love to the Muslim belief that all goes all of those حديث all of it goes so when they were saying to you أخي smile in the face of the believer they met their group that's what they meant they met their particular group and the people who are of their group العلامة بكر من عبدالله أبو زيد رحمة الله has a book that deserves to be studied and I promise and inshallah it's one of the books in my mind that I'm going to go through which is حكم الانتماء إلى الفرق والأحزاب والجماعات الإسلامية he authored a book about attributing yourself to groups نعم attributing yourself to sex and groups he wrote a book on this أبو زيد رحمه الله رحمة نواسعة and as I said إن شاء الله we're going to go through it when he was mentioning the harms that it has and the problems that it has attributing yourself to a group giving allegiance and love and disassociation based on the group he said the following he said وفل حزبيتي بعثوا حرب الكلمة بنصب عوام الانتصاري والترجيح لأصول كل حزب وردي ما يخالفه he said when it comes to the issue of sectarianism about a group your group is that the person is going to reject the truth and that which is right all because why all because it goes against the أصول of the حزب it goes against the foundations in which the group is built on so any evidences that come they look at it through the lenses of their group any evidences which they can scrutinize and they can bend they'll bend it for the group those evidences that are not able to be bent they're too strong and they're too stiff it won't be able to be bent يضع افونه they weaken it or they discredit those who bring those evidences they take methods and طرخ this is the reality of it so حزبية is one of the root causes that brings about deviation and a person who has حزبية in him that individual you will find without a shadow of a doubt one of the things that they hate is what إنكار المكر and why my beloved brothers and sisters سلفيين are ones that even though they're together if one does a mistake he refutes them and he's happy with the refutation because what matters to them is not individuals there's not a a group that has to be protected يا أخي The Haq is what they brought them together and it's that Haq in which each person is trying to make sure that it's apparent ولدالك I'll tell you something very powerful الشيخ بلعثيمين did a mistake one time when he was talking about an issue pertaining to باب الأسماع والصفات شيخ محمد صالعثيمين when he came to the issue of Allah being above the throne he said a statement which we don't want to go into right now and he did a mistake شيخ حمود من عبد الله came across it so he wrote a refutation against شيخ من عثيمين he wrote a refutation the refutation is مطبوع متداول is present against who شيخ من عثيمين ابنه باز put a مقدمة on the تقديم of the book شيخ من عثيمين had that حمود من عبد الله was busy with the refutation against him he requested حمود من عبد الله to a jury to send him the refutation ابنه عثيمين read it and he put a تقديم for him on the book and that book is من شور spread today with the تقديم of شيخ من عثيمين and also شيخ عبد عزيز عبد الله من عبد الله the reason is because they're not a hizb which you have to look after a group the matter is الحق make the hack play to the people let the people be upon clarity and what is right from what is wrong شيخ من عثيمين was striving to what was right if he got it wrong then his brother who's his mirror his reflection corrected him he's happy and that's praiseworthy they on the other hand the حزبيين they will look at that and say look at you guys fighting they will use it as a to discredit you and say look at you fighting one another يا أخي is not just like the message عليه الصلاة والسلام said اللهم إني أبرأ إليك مما صنع خاليدا والله I free myself from what خاليد did the messenger was clarifying the hack and telling the people what was right and that what خاليد ابن الوليد رضي الله تعالى عنه وارضا did was wrong and the messenger would do that عليه الصلاة والسلام كذب أبو سلاب أبو سلاب lied the messenger clarified عليه الصلاة والسلام all of this for what reason يا أخي إظهار الحق this truth has to be protected but the people of the حزب the hack is not as important to them as the group is the group is more important the individual is more important than the truth so the honor and the reputation of the person takes presidents over the truth وَلَا يُبَالُونَ so they don't really care if the truth is dismissed or it is destroyed to the extent that when somebody comes out and then makes sure that the truth is brought out to the people and he tries to explain the truth to the people he is called an overzealous person so yeah overzealous he's got too much zeal in him instead of what instead of because if they accept that from you people are going to say يا أخي five years you've been doing that yourself وما يستقيم وما يستقيم you've been fooling us then until Allah brought this person so the people are going to see his mistakes and his shortcomings they're going to turn away from him and they're going to listen to this person so he has to be from his greatest enemies and it takes a lot of hard work and it takes a lot of sincerity and a lot of to say that I was wrong and fool animals right it takes a lot out of a person it takes a lot and this is a sign of a مخلص sincere person and this is what the scholars have shown this is what our scholars have shown وذلك شيق ابل القيب رحمه الله العلمة ابل القيب in one of these books I read a story that a teacher was asked a question a teacher was asked a question and the teacher wasn't able to answer the question so he said لا أدري I don't know and this is a characteristic that a Muslim should have when a question is asked and put to you and you don't know it you should say لا أدري I don't know the scholars they used to say the person who does not say لا أدري when he does it now will see but مقاتلوا destruction is on his way that scholar wrote a book on it just one book is called لا أدري I don't know he brought the statement all the علماء who said لا أدري and as you know a man came up to him and asked him questions he traveled from a very far distance and he asked him questions 40 something different mentioned different figures but every question that was put to him he kept saying لا أدري لا أدري لا أدري لا أدري one or two of the questions he answered so the man said to him I traveled all this far for you so you can tell me now somebody would say يا أخي if I say لا أدري I don't know people are going to think I'm a jahil I don't even know the religion يا أخي you don't even know the basics of the deen يا أخي don't let that get to you don't let that get to you know that you're saving yourself from a greater destruction it's better I am ignorant of this particular issue and I say I don't know and I come across as an ignorant person then put in myself forward in answering a question which in reality I didn't know and I got it wrong and then I come to Allah I get punished for speaking without knowledge و لا تقولوا لما تصف وألسنا تقوموا الكديب هذا حلان و هذا حرام و لا تفتروا على الله الكديب إن الذين افترون على الله الكديب لا يفلحون ولا تقفوا ما ليس لك بيعلم إن السمعة والبصر والفؤاد كل أولئك كان عنه مسؤولة لا تتحدث عن ذلك و أنت لا تفهم و لذلك الشخص يقول لا أدري نسف العلم شخص يأتي لا أدري is half of knowledge right someone said it say it twice full you got full knowledge لا أدري you have a complete knowledge what it means is that when you say لا أدري you are actually you've come with half of it which is that you know you don't know so you're now going to be pursuing it و لذلك جهل و مركب is a problem right a compounded ignorance is that a person won't move forward because he believes he knows so what the scholars mean by لا أدري is that once you say I don't know the second step is what go and embark on the path for gaining it so that means it's as they say a good dream is half the bottle to dream it is wanting something the next thing that's missing from you is the execution of your dream so that's why you just have to come with the second half anyways the teacher said لا أدري I don't know when the question was put to him so what happened was that a student of his said I know مرقيم is mentioned in his books the student came and I said he said I know so the teacher took it very personal became very upset and very annoyed with how dare does the student speak in a matter which I am the teacher who said I don't know how dare so he planned to punch the student and make the student suffer because of this statement of his so the student responded to the teacher when he saw that the teacher got upset he said to the teacher you are oh my teacher you are not more knowledgeable than Suleiman and I am not more ignorant than the hud hud didn't Allah say in the Quran when Suleiman was looking for the hud hud he said why is it that I don't see the hud hud أمكان من الغائبين or is it from me it's not here today because Suleiman commanded everybody to come together and hud hud is not here so he went and guess whose command Suleiman so he said I am going to punish the hud hud in a way to punish birds is that you not to kill it so he said I am going to punish the hud hud in a way to punish birds is that you not to kill it so he said so the way he was planning to scholars some of them mentioned that he was going to peel all of its wings off sorry his feathers off I would just put it out in the sun and it would burn to death out of thirst and tie it down or I am going to kill it or I am going to slaughter it anyways the point is or it's going to come with to me أولا يأتي أني بالسلطاني مبين and based on تفسير and this is not known as تفسير بكلية بكلية المعالي which is that every place that the word سلطاني comes in the Qur'an it means حجة we've taken this so he will come to me with a proof meaning knowledge based argument so what did the hoot would come hoot would came back to سليمان and he said to سليمان أحط بمعلم تحرط به واجئ توكب سبع بنبع يقين أحط I have encompassed a matter I have come to know of a matter أحط بمعلم تحرط به you don't know this issue and hoot hoot is not as noble as نبي الله سليمان so the student is trying to say to the teacher if hoot hoot came to know something that سليمان didn't and I am his individual right about say that so the Arabs they say أقحمه سينس the teacher صح أقحمه سينس the teacher the point I'm saying to you here is is that that's how the religion is the truth is mentioned and it's uttered and it's said and every single person strives to making sure that the truth is respected and when it comes to dealing with the scholars and their mistakes we've already spoken about that just because a scholar has done a mistake that does not mean you put him down but that doesn't also mean that the truth is been signed we're signed about the truth because of his honor pay attention just because of the sheikh's honor the truth is we say that we say that it's going to discredit the sheikhs so we're not going to speak about it that's incorrect the truth is spread it's told his mistake is told to the people that it was wrong what he said but his reputation and his honor is not put down so the people of a group that's one thing which they are unable to do which is they can't do إنكاره مكره أن نصف لي الله وليه رسولي وليه ذلك some of the shocking things والله brothers you guys are youngsters brothers a lot of you guys are not aware of these groups I come from a country where this is very common there are many groups we have a letter تصارب they used to be known as which is a branch from the point is that look what they will do when the person gets out of hand like sometimes not everybody's the same somebody would see the مكر he'll be silent for the group when he sees another مكر he'll be silent because of the group but as time goes on he can't handle it anymore so he comes out and he writes a bayan look this is wrong this is wrong that's what they do when he does that they disassociate themselves from him and they alienize him and marginalize him and push him to the side and they tell the people this man was always overzealous he was always he was never right in his mind and attached negative connotation negative things to him the question arises that why are you doing it now let's just say hypothetically you guys are right he was always like that why now why was it when he was in the group you never did that because in the group every bartender and every مكر can be there but now he's harming the group not that he's harming the truth so even when they do refute that person or they criticize him don't take it from them they're just doing it because he went he went against the group and when he did that I'll show you somebody who was part of a group or is part of the same ideology he was with them and they were with him and he did the تكفير of the group I don't ever mention the name but there's a Somali and تكفير today when he comes out on YouTube and stuff and he has and he lives in Nairobi those who know what I'm saying will know there's a group in Somalia known as الإعتصام he did تكفير of them على بكري أبيه على بكري أبيه every member he did تكفير on them تكفير وعين specifically the كفار he permitted their blood it used to be part of them it was once upon a time a person they used to use as a merger that's what they used to do but the minute he what he started to تكفير on them he became a what تكفير خارجي وعلوم مجطوى is that something a Salafi would take from them a person who studied the books of the sunnah لا ever done no he knows by default that you guys are refuting him on the different bases of what we were refuting in the first place yeah you're refuting on the bases that he's actually now come to the حزب and the group and you're just fighting with him based on he's leaving of the حزب and him doing تكفير of the حزب but our issue is of them اعتقاد in the belief of this person and the حق in which he has gone against so pay attention to that حزبي my beloved brothers and sisters it extinguishes the work of what of ونصع just all of that for what reason the voice of the group the group even sometimes they will beautify for you and they will say to you اخي why are you dividing them Muslims اخي I'm not dividing them they're Muslims who said that all the Muslims are اخوان المسلمين who said that all the Muslims are حزب who said that to you when did you get that from اخي I'm just speaking about a group I'm speaking about a misguided group of people so this is very important ان شاء الله I'm going to conclude on that last root cause which is ان شاء الله تأ grab tomorrow's session ان شاء الله I'm going to carry on the other remaining root causes that bring about deviation ان شاء اللهgehو س كان	{ "url":

UC0ZYS0Y7b5oiVLvxGf4magw	Designing, Implementing, and Using Reactive APIs - Ben Hale & Paul Harris, Pivotal	Designing, Implementing, and Using Reactive APIs - Ben Hale & Paul Harris, Pivotal The Java community is on the cusp of a major change in programming model. As the industry moves towards high-performance micro-service architectures, the need for a reactive programming model becomes clear. In this session, the lead developers of the Cloud Foundry Java Client will talk about what led them to choose a reactive API. Using that project as a lens, they'll explore how they designed and implemented this API using Project Reactor and what users will expect when using a reactive API. If you are a developer looking to provide reactive APIs, this is your chance to gain the experience of team building a large, production-ready reactive library. About Ben Hale Ben Hale leads Pivotal's efforts to constantly improve the Java experience on Cloud Foundry. Recently he has been working on the Cloud Foundry Java Buildpack with an eye to making it the best place to run Java applications, in the Cloud or otherwise. In addition, he leads the team that is revamping the Cloud Foundry Java Client, a Java language binding on top of the Cloud Foundry REST APIs. Prior to working on Cloud Foundry, Ben worked on large-scale middleware management tools, tc Server, dm Server (OSGi), and Spring. If you go back far enough, he even worked on a network management and monitoring application, but will deny it when asked. About Paul Harris Paul Harris is the lead developer for the Cloud Foundry Java Client, working on bringing the power of Cloud Foundry’s API and CLI to Java. Prior to working on Cloud Foundry, Paul worked on large-scale middleware management tools, tc Server, and dm Server (OSGi). He’s worked in a range of industries from medical devices through manufacturing to banking, where he was one of the backroom heroes averting the Y2K disaster.	null	2018-04-27T15:53:15	2024-04-23T02:16:28	1,861	5rTIJKrvsKA	Okay. Good afternoon everybody. My name is Ben Hale. I'm a pivotal employee and I am the lead of the Cloud Foundry Java experience, which basically means that if you want to run Java applications on Cloud Foundry, I sort of oversee all of the teams that are responsible for doing that. And my name is Paul Harris. I'm the lead of the Cloud Foundry Java client. I've been working in tech for about 20 years now, the last three of it as a developer. So I'm relatively new to this and will be relatively gentle with you all. Great. So today we're going to be doing a talk called Designing, Implementing, and Using Reactive APIs. This talk was originally supposed to be an hour long, so strap in. This is going to be pretty fast. I am in protest so I will not read this next slide. Would you like to? Exits. There's probably an exit here as well. If you see me running, just follow. I think that's the basic message. Okay. So we're going to talk about reactive programming today, but the term reactive has been just vastly overused. It's been hijacked to me in a bunch of different things. For the purposes of the discussion today, we want to define reactive programming as something that is a way to broadly define event-driven systems. So we effectively want to take code that you've already written or code that you would know how to write imperatively, and we want to move it to a foundation that is asynchronous primarily, and this is probably the biggest thing that you want to take away from it, non-blocking. And we'll talk a little bit about why this is really important. A functional style code base, so you're going to see sort of different things. You're going to see a lot more use of closures and things like that that you may not have normally used. But the whole goal behind doing reactive programming is to give us stable, scalable access to external systems or inside of our own system. The goal is to take what is an imperative programming that can potentially get you into trouble, things like exploding thread pools, things that block for way too long, blocking all incoming connections, to sort of give you a programming model that removes that kind of behavior. And so the way we're going to do this is we're going to talk about the Cloud Foundry Java client. We give this talk in a lot of places that are not Cloud Foundry summits, which means that we have to explain what Cloud Foundry is, the fact that it's composed of about 550 different restful APIs secured by OAuth, but you all know that. There's normally a slide in here that says, don't worry that you don't understand these Cloud Foundry concepts. The names will be self-explanatory. I don't have to give that today because you all know all of these Cloud Foundry concepts. And so what we take away when it comes to writing the Java client is that we have these really, really low-level APIs. They often need to be orchestrated. So I don't know if anybody has ever looked under the hood of what CF push is. Paul will be happy to tell you CF push is at minimum 13 different network requests trying to get all of this stuff coordinated. So the Java client itself has become the preferred language for orchestrating Cloud Foundry. More than any other orchestration tool, we find that things as varied as Spinnaker, the tool from Netflix that's used to sort of orchestrate pushing applications to different Cloud platforms to something like Spring Cloud Dataflow uses this. We see it in different customers as well. We have everybody from like internally inside a Pivotal. We have an internal version of Cloud Foundry called PEZ, and they do a bunch of orchestration there. We see other clients outside doing orchestration and automating access to their Cloud Foundry footprint for their customers using the Cloud Foundry Java client. The problem ends up being that when people first started trying to do this orchestration, just making rest call response, rest call response, and knowing which of the 550 different APIs to call and what the payloads are supposed to be was really, really problematic, that kind of generic access, something like this, where you might have a map of string object and you need to pass a bunch of stuff and make this particular request really, really problematic to know that you got it right to be able to test it extensively. So what we wanted to do was write a Java client on top of it, effectively a language binding that makes things much more strongly typed, much more obvious exactly what's going on, so now you know what name should be. You don't even need to know what the payload key is. We'll take care of that for you, but you write code that is much, much more understandable, and you can do things with it that's a little bit clear to read. I want to push this particular application located here, name this thing using this build pack, and I want to map that response back, getting its ID so that I can do something. So we knew that we wanted to write a language binding for this kind of thing, but we were still toying around with what it meant, like what that API needs to look like, and it turned out that the high-latency network interaction is a really, really good fit for reactive design. There are a number of places that reactive design works really well, but as a sort of first rule of thumb, if you go over a network, you really, really want to use reactive programming, simply because it allows you to write asynchronous, non-blocking kind of operations, really, really simple. So we partnered with something that came out of the Spring team called Project Reactor really early on. We drove their design, they drove our design, and we came out with something that we think is really, really good. So what does it mean? As I said, when should we use reactive? So networking is always a really, really good example of a place to use reactive programming, because it has certain features, things like high latency. If you take a look at sort of imperative programming, whether it's the servlet model or even something like Spring's HTTP client, what you end up with is a network request goes out, but it holds open a thread. There is this binding from one thread to one request, and threads are really expensive. I mean, they're lighter weight than processes, obviously, but there is a very small finite number of threads that a JVM can feasibly keep. Maybe it's 200, maybe it's 2,000. It doesn't matter really what the number is, but effectively, if you hold one of these very scarce resources for an extended period of time, just blocking, waiting for something to come back, you are wasting it in a very bad way. We also see going across network things like failures, intermittent network failures, and what it means when the server on the other side starts sending you a huge amount of data, way more data than you can actually process. All of these things are really good indicators that reactive programming is good for going over the network. We also have anything that requires highly concurrent operations, so if you have something that can be sort of scattered, gathered very broadly, that's really good. So a good example of this was someone asked in the Java client GitHub issues the other day, how would I enumerate the tuple, org name, space name, application name for everything on my entire platform, right? And you can imagine platforms having thousands of orgs and tens of thousands of applications and things like that. If you tried to do something like this sequentially, or even if you tried to coordinate it directly yourself using fork join or something like that in Java and imperative programming, those APIs aren't great, right? And so reactive programming gives you a way to sort of declaratively say, I want these things to happen sequentially, and I want these things to happen parallely, and I can stack them together, right? So I want to, I need to enumerate all of, I need to enumerate an org before I can enumerate its spaces, before I can do its applications. But once I'm inside of an org, I can enumerate all of its applications in parallel on each one of those spaces, all of their applications in parallel as well. And you never have to manage that multi-threading, that concurrency, the framework, the reactive framework takes care of it for you. And then finally we talk about scalability. Scalability, anything that you need to handle a huge amount of data or a huge number of connections or a huge amount of load, reactive programming by its very nature of not doing blocking and doing things asynchronously is another place that's a really, really good fit. So we're going to talk a little bit about the API that we designed is based on, as I said, project reactor. And so the types that you're going to see in here are going to be reactor types, something called flux and mono. But everything that we talk about here is effectively in all reactive frameworks. So if you're using something like RxJava or Vertex or something like that, all of the concepts translate over. We just happen to use this set of names. So reactive APIs, the first fundamental difference of a reactive API from a normal imperative API is that a reactive API always returns something. It's basically what we would call a flow of values of some kind. And there are two major variants. In truth, there's really only one. There's this concept of a flux. Zero to N values are going to be returned. We also specialize. It turns out it's really useful to know if it's going to be zero or one versus zero to N. And so we have a specialization of flux called a mono. So we're going to see in examples like this, something like this. If I want to list a set of applications, listing that set returns me a flux of those applications. So I can list and then I can take that list of all those applications and I can map something out of it. So effectively what this says is for each application flowing through that flux, I want to get its name and then at the bottom we see where we subscribe. I want to print that particular name out. So you start seeing this composability where at any given line, any given operation behaves on one single element flowing through. In the end, all of the elements will flow through and each one of them will get its name and each one of them will be printed out. But one of the key differences between sort of imperative programming and reactive programming is this idea that each one of these little atoms, each one of these little operators behaves on a single element flowing through. Mono response works very similarly except it only does one. And so we see listing applications again. We get all the names. But you'll notice the next thing we do is we collect all of those names as a list. We wait until every single element has come through that flux, put them all as a list. And now I have a mono that just contains a list, which I may check, does an application name exist in that list itself, right? So it works very similarly in that data is flowing through but in the mono the big difference is only a single piece of data. And what you'll see certainly inside the Java client API is it's very, very common to sort of have a stream of stuff that gets collected into the list. And then that list is then inside of a mono. That is the one thing that flows through because something like testing whether or not a name exists, an application name, is very difficult to do if it's just sort of data going by. It's much, much more efficient to just collect all those names and use a standard invocation name contains or something like that. There are ways to do this without converting it. But in a lot of cases actually having an entire list is the most efficient way to understand everything that's gone through. So as we said every method must return something. Void is not a valid return value when you're talking about reactive programming. And the reason is because when we take a look at code a reactive flow is basically a map of execution but it is not executed yet, right? So if we take a look at this imperative operation, when I call delete passing in a string ID it executes this thing, the rest template goes off, goes and deletes something and when it returns that deletion has completed, right? So before it can get out of that delete method and get back into cleanup you can be sure that something has happened, that an operation has been completed. But in reactive programming this is not true. So in this particular case when you call delete it basically sets up a framework that says when someone is finally ready to execute then I will go delete something. So that method returns instantly back to cleanup. Only on this subscribe call here does the delete actually begin. So subscribe basically means start and I want you to hand me some information. In this particular case the use of mono void that you see up there is basically a shorthand way of saying just tell me when you're done. I don't expect you to return anything but you do need to signal me that you are complete or that you have an error. You know? Okay thanks very much Ben. So we've looked at the details that Ben's gone over now. We're going to look at a little bit at the implementation, how we've been implementing stuff reactively. So the first thing, sequential and parallel coordination. So as Ben's been saying there's a lot of benefit here in being able to parallelize things. The project reactor people will tell you most vehemently that this is not about performance, it's about managing loads and things like that. But the fact is if you can parallelize dozens of calls that you would normally do sequentially then clearly there's going to be a performance benefit there. Unfortunately doing things concurrently can be very hard to do. You've got to manage thread pools and all the other problems that Ben's mentioned. Fortunately something like project reactor and various other frameworks that are available will allow you to define sequential and parallel operations and the relationships between them in a pretty simplistic way so that you can concentrate on the code that you need and you can leave it to the framework to do the hard lifting of managing those thread pools etc. So if we take a look at a little example here this is about retrieving some list application information. We have the first method is a get page and all it does is make a call and say give me a page defined by the page number that we've given it. So underneath that we have the main method that starts very simply. It says give me the first page and when it gets that first page back there's a bunch of resources on there but there's also information about the payload that we're requesting. One of the information items on that payload is the total number of pages so it could be two, ten, whatever. So what we're going to do is we're going to extract that information out and we're going to have this thing a flux range so flux a bit like a stream in Java 8. It's going to say give me a list of numbers from two to whatever the total number of pages and for each of those numbers I'm going to do a request to get page. So that flat map says I want you to do all of those at the same time so it will do get page for page two, get page for page three and so on. It will make all of those requests, it will put them together with the that start with there just says don't forget about the first page that we've already got and it will put all of that information together and well in this case sys out obviously not terribly useful but a good example. So the key thing there is we started with a single operation and then everything else, every other request from there happened in parallel, big performance gain potentially. So as well as just defining simple flows like that we can do various sorts of conditional logic. It won't surprise you to hear that we can do the standard things and branching and so on but there are a couple of slightly more unusual things that we can do as well. One of those is we first need to understand that in reactive programming an error is just a value that can be passed on the same as any other value. That means that we can pass it on to the consumer if it's something that we don't particularly know about we can just say here this error happened. We can change behavior, we can generate new values based on that error as well, potentially if it's something that we're expecting to see. So if we look at this example we're going to do an application statistics request so we want to, for a particular application we want to know it's uptime memory usage, things like that. In the normal run of things we give it the application request and we say based on this ID retrieve this information for me it will go and take a look and say here you go here's the information you were after uptime etc. But we may get an error back and one of the errors that we could get back is an application stopped error and what that says is there's nothing wrong everything's working fine it's just that the application is stopped because it hasn't been started for some reason. So in that case we do an on error resume so we've got an error but we don't want to stop we want to resume we want to continue processing and in this case we're going to return an empty object that says I checked there was no information but you can carry on normally and use that information. What it doesn't do it's not a catch all for errors so we've specified that is an application stopped error if anything else comes up then somebody else is going to have to handle that we'll pass it on however we decide to process it. As Ben mentioned earlier not everything will return a particular value sometimes it will just return a complete to say I did the thing you asked me to do and now I'm done and we can use those indicators in the same way that we were using the errors we can again use logic from them we can pass them straight on as just here's the value that came out. So if we take a look at an example of that with this empty logic something that may be familiar to you if we're trying to find a domain based on its name we don't necessarily know if it's a private domain or a shared domain so we have to check both places. So we start here by saying get the private domain ID based on a name and it may return a value in which case we'll pass that on as a string is the ID. If we don't get a result from that if we get an empty that says I checked and there was nothing there then we switch based on that empty and we go and check the shared domains and we do a query and we get back a result and again we may get a positive result we'll pass back the ID but it may come back again saying I checked I still don't have anything for you in which case we now have a problem because we've checked shared domains we check private domains we don't know this name that you've given us and in that scenario we've got an error and we will report that as an illegal state exception so you can see here we've changed logic based on whether we got a return back and then eventually we've actually changed the return type or the return value by generating an error. Okay that's a little bit about processing now we've got some testing which I'm sure you'll all be wanting to do. One of the problems we face when we're testing is that most useful flows will be asynchronous that's what we're about we're trying to use this asynchronous to speed things up to make more efficient use of our resources. Unfortunately in this scenario most testing frameworks are aggressively synchronous so they run the test then shut down as soon as possible and that gives us a problem because we are waiting for something to happen asynchronously that the test will not wait for so what we need to do is to block the main thread and make test assertions in the asynchronous thread and we've got a little example of that here. So I'm going to generate a single value alpha just one value I'm going to subscribe to it and then I'm going to assert that the value I get equals bravo now fairly clearly that should fail and sure enough when I run it it's actually passed and the reason it's passed is because the processing that did the assert equals happened on a secondary thread but whilst that was off doing its thing the test looked for completion didn't see any failure because the assert equals didn't generate anything on the main thread completed and as far as it's concerned everything's passed fortunately project reactor gives us a way of dealing with this and that's to use something called the step verifier the step verifier has a number of other benefits as well as just handling that blocking which would be enough it allows us to do things like multiple value assertions expected error assertions unexpected errors if there's something that we didn't actually know was coming back we can still handle it so if we look at an example of just one of those things the multiple values we're generating a flux here so we're going to have two values emitted alpha and bravo we subscribe to it using a step verifier and then we're going to say we're asserting in effect three things we expect that an alpha will come out and the alpha will be first we expect that bravo will come out and that will be second and then the third thing we're saying is that that's all that we will get back so the next signal that we get is an expect complete give it a duration of five seconds because this is asynchronous which means we don't know how long it's going to take but we know we don't want to wait forever and I don't have a slide to prove it but trust me that works okay so that's implementation that's here's a little bit about how we've been using it and how we expect other people to use it as well one of the big problems that we see a lot of people facing is that the reactive framework can only coordinate its own operation it doesn't know about the environment around it so whilst it's managing its own threads etc what's happening underneath is not visible to it now a lot of the time that doesn't matter if you're running in a servlet container for example it's effectively long-lived and the reactive framework doesn't care what's going on but there are situations where it can cause problems and obviously one of that in addition to the testing we just looked at is if you're running in a main method which we'll try to complete as soon as possible so if we have a look at that happening and what goes wrong I'm going to emit a single value here alpha I'm going to delay the subscription so I'm going to wait for a second so if there is a problem here with concurrency and asynchronously then we will find out about it we subscribe and we're going to try and sys out the value that we get back and when we run that it runs to completion because there's no problem with running it but when we look at the values that come out we see that there aren't any values because the main thread completed before the subscription which was delayed actually got to do anything the way we handle that is using a countdown latch so what we're going to say is I will set up this precondition that needs to be satisfied before the main method can complete and I do that by creating a new countdown latch with just a single flag on it again the code is pretty much the same I emit an alpha I wait for a second I subscribe and you can see I've got some parameters inside that subscribe I'll explain what they are in a moment but the key thing here is that they count down the latch they release the latch in this case and when I run that I wait for the latch and what happens is it executes again because still nothing's gone wrong but this time it's actually waiting for the alpha to be emitted so as I said we've got some additional parameters in there they are let us define the behavior that we're going to have in particular scenarios one of which is error handling as I've said before errors will just go through naturally until somebody catches them so we need to be able to handle those things so if we take a look again a very similar piece of code we're setting up a countdown latch again this time we're going to have a flux I mean it's going to have two items in it the first one is just a simple string and that will work just fine but the second item is an illegal state exception so we know that this is going to throw an error we subscribe to it and then we have three parameters inside that subscribe the first one is on next which just says the next time I get something that comes in do this and that's the normal operation if you like and in this case we will set out the second one is what happens in case of on error and in that scenario we want to do something we want to handle the error in some way here we just print out the stack trace pretty straightforward but we also want to make sure that because we've had an error and this is a terminal condition if you like that we need to count down the latch we need to say this processing is complete the final parameter there is on complete so if everything has completed successfully we've had however many things emitted and now the flux says I'm closed then we still need we could do some other processing as well but we still need to release that latch to say this process is now completed we do the latch await and again that will execute correctly just going back to that actually this is one of the two biggest problems that we see people having when they're using reactive not just to do with our code but in any time that um you've written code that you think is great and it produces nothing because everything that's happening is off on a different thread and you don't see it so if you start using rector and you you don't get the results out that you're expecting it first thing to think of is countdown latch it's not necessarily the solution but it's a good place to start one final thing is point free style so you may have noticed from the code samples that they're using something that might look a little bit unintuitive if you look at it from an imperative point of view there's a link there to point free style guide and the reasoning behind it um what we found is that um it's kind of unintuitive at first and Ben certainly didn't like it when we got started um but after a while you get used to the the style and how it works and and it becomes more readable becomes more compact which helps with understanding the flow so if you look at this um slightly more complicated example i'm going to delete an application so i'm supplying a name and i've got two steps that it needs to take first of all it needs to look up the id based on that name and then it needs to actually do the delete based with that based on that id so you can see that the first builder that i've got there i could construct that in advance i could set up a variable and just insert the variable name inside that but you can see that in the second um builder i can't really do that in advance very easily because i don't know what the application idea is there are ways around it you can um create an unbuilt builder if you like and then just complete it inside there and there are various other cheats you can do but we found that ultimately when you get used to it that this style of um effectively inlining everything is much more useful uh than than trying to stick with the old style of imperative code okay with that i'm going to hand over to ben to wrap up yeah just to sort of build on this a little bit um you do end up with much denser code than you might otherwise um there are ways around that uh so if you ever took a look at the java client code itself you'd see that we'd never actually write a flow that was quite this dense that had this many lines will you you get a lot of reward from really extracting out uh methods and using the java method reference syntax so instead of um this whole second uh sort of flat map here with application id there'd be a method called uh was it get application id or delete application or something like that um that would take in just the application id and so this would sort of collapse to become a one liner and the same thing with the pagination utils and that whole thing that would you know have a list applications method that's absolutely compresses and so this realistically um even using point free style collapses down to like two or three different lines and the key is that it ends up being much more readable whether like if you're taking a look at it um even expanded like this i don't think anybody really thinks at having a bunch of assignment and equal signs and curly braces and stuff like that makes this any more understandable than if you sort of collapse the whole thing down into very small methods that have very clear names on it so uh with just a couple minutes left uh let's go ahead and take a look at um a summary of this so we talked a little bit in the very beginning about how to design so when is it appropriate to use reactive programming the key the easiest one um and probably the first place every single person is going to get involved in reactive programming if you choose to is if you're doing anything over the network the the sort of ability to do asynchronous non-blocking style programming inside of java is the key reason to start taking a look at reactive programming uh reactive methods must or methods and reactive apis must always return something void is not reasonable um you always want to return mono and flux and as i just said you want to have these very small reusable methods and if you take a look at our code you'll see um that a lot on the implementation side remember back at the very beginning i mentioned that one of the key value propositions of something like um project reactor rx java is this idea that you can declaratively say here are the things that need to happen sequentially here are the things that are allowed to happen in parallel with one another and you can look at it and read it and understand how these things are related to one another but someone else some other framework is responsible for doing that coordination in the most efficient way and if you take a look at reactor um things that you think might have been parallelized uh aren't necessarily because it turns out that doing things in batches uh but doing them sequentially can actually outperform doing everything in parallel um or everything in parallel at the exact same time and so you want someone else working at a different layer of abstraction working that out for you and you are simply saying here's what needs to be sequential and here's what's allowed to be parallel finally in the implementation um testing is a really key thing but has a lot of caveats or a lot of gotchas simply because so much of reactor programming happens asynchronously on different threads and test frameworks aren't necessarily designed to um uh think about things in that way on the use side um we said there are a couple things that go um problematic um you want to probably make sure you're using things like countdown latches to guarantee that you're holding processes open um longer than they might otherwise simply because a bunch of stuff is happening on other threads um there are ways we didn't discuss them in here but there are ways to effectively say uh I don't want to use a countdown latch I just want you to turn this back into asynchronous non asynchronous thing by blocking it open um we saw how to handle errors remember that errors are actually values that flow through a chain there are no exceptions uh you pass exception types around but nothing ever gets thrown in reactive uh you want to make sure you compose methods and obviously the point freestyle we discussed there at the end so that's it for us uh thank you all um I think we're right at time now so I will step off the stage and allow the next speaker to come up and we'll answer questions thank you very much	{ "url":

UCvqbFHwN-nwalWPjPUKpvTA	Evolving Prometheus for More Use Cases - Bartek Plotka, Red Hat & Chris Marchbanks, Grafana Labs	Don’t miss out! Join us at our next event: KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Europe 2022 in Valencia, Spain from May 17-20. Learn more at https://kubecon.io The conference features presentations from developers and end users of Kubernetes, Prometheus, Envoy, and all of the other CNCF-hosted projects. Evolving Prometheus for More Use Cases - Bartek Plotka, Red Hat & Chris Marchbanks, Grafana Labs Prometheus is a well-known CNCF Graduated project that allows cheap and effective monitoring capabilities using metrics. With a rich ecosystem of exporters and integrations, Prometheus allows you to collect metrics from your applications running in Kubernetes and beyond in no time. There were many opportunities to learn about Prometheus, its data model and capabilities at every past KubeCon around the globe. This talk will be different. As the cloud-native ecosystem evolves and more organizations adopt cloud-native approaches, all projects are innovating and seeking improvements. We mean things like Kubernetes clusters “as cattle”, multi-cluster applications, eBPF, edge services and more. To keep up with demands for different deployments and architectures, Prometheus evolves too. In this talk, you will learn how you can use and extend Prometheus for those different use cases. In addition, we will highlight advanced, experimental, or upcoming functionality to help with your use cases.	null	2021-10-29T17:48:38	2024-02-05T16:36:14	1,887	5R6Fy21MXVE	Hello, everyone. We hope you have an amazing day at KubeCon. And you have some spare energy to learn something new and exciting about Prometheus project. Before we start, though, I would like you to know to that maintainers team and community created so many materials about Prometheus already you can read, right? You can find those on our website, Prometheus.io. You can find that on blog posts, YouTube, other KubeCons, past KubeCons. And to be honest, it's kind of hard to prepare a talk, a deep dive from KubeCons, that doesn't repeat some knowledge. But if you're not, we found some cool area that might be a little bit different for you this year. So what we want to do, we'll try to give you an overview of all newer features and deployment possibilities that we have created to accommodate many, many various requirements from cloud native community that adopts the technology, the cloud, the communities, and all the goodies there. With more companies, there are much more use cases and different integrations that we have to evolve. And this is what we want to show. But first, some short introduction. I have Chris with me. Hello. I am Chris Marchbanks. I've been a member of the Prometheus team since 2019. I'm currently working at Grafana Labs on engineer and on some machine learning capabilities. In my free time, I try and spend as much time as I can, skiing and climbing with my wife in the mountains outside our home in Colorado. Wow, I miss skiing as well. Hello, my name is Bartek Plotka, and I am a principal software engineer at ThreadHat. I am a Prometheus maintainer for a bit, and I also co-founded Tunnels Project, which is a project for scaling Prometheus. I'm also CNCF TAC observability tech lead, and I also write a book with O'Reilly, which is called Efficient Go. So before we jump into those advanced cases, let's introduce Prometheus to maybe those new here who just want to learn about what it is and what it does. And let's make it very briefly, very brief. So technically speaking, Prometheus is just a single stateful Go binary that we deploy in one or two replicas next to the workloads we want to monitor. So the things that produce some data, some metrics that we want to observe and grab. So when you start this Prometheus server with the typical configuration, it will first reach the discovery that you configure, discovery service that you configured. For example, it might be a DNS service. It might be a Kubernetes API. It might be ECS that scans for the virtual machines that you have deployed. And using the labeling mechanics or various different strategies, it obtain the targets that we want to scrape, that we want to essentially monitor. So with those targets, we essentially reach them and pull metrics from those targets, which typically are just applications. And we do that with every configured interval, which generally means something between one seconds and couple of minutes. And we call this process as scrape, right? And then scrape is essentially a very fast HTTP call to the endpoint that those applications exposes. And it usually exposes those using the open metrics or Prometheus text exposition format. So this exposes essentially the current values of the gouges and counters that are in the system right now. It will also watch the service discovery for any changes that might appear dynamically to make sure we always have the correct place we take the metrics from. And the available data that we pulled can be an access through different means. We have various Prometheus APIs, REST APIs, including query API with flexible promoQL language. You can then connect to Grafana for some dashboarding experience. You can also configure your own recording rules. So to make some fast aggregations or alerting rules that will trigger an alert when, for example, Prometheus see that there are too many errors on your application. Others then are sent to the alert manager for routing purposes, and then send to your email client phone or Slack to notify you or some further machine processes. So that was general overview of Prometheus, very basics. In this talk, however, we want to look on various, maybe more advanced use cases, but actually I want to highlight that those are getting more and more typical because with advancements of technology, of CNCF projects, we can actually abstract so much complexity in a faster way. So you might hit those cases pretty soon if you are even new to the cloud native ecosystem. So we will talk about scraping features, bug-filling, signal correlation, multi-cluster agent mode, and multi-tenancy. Let's go for it. Yeah, so first up, the core Prometheus, the scraping, is still adding more features to allow more and more use cases. I want to highlight a couple of those in the service discovery component. So first off, in the last six months, six new service discovery implementations have been added to Prometheus. I especially want to thank all of the contributors who have implemented them. These new integrations allow for more and more users to easily configure and get started with Prometheus. I'm especially excited about the generic HTTP based service discovery to allow users the ability to use service discovery for anything they can think of. For example, in the past, I've had to use sidecars and Kubernetes operator to fairly distribute load among a fleet of Prometheus instances. Today, that would be possible using only the HTTP service discovery. With all of the new service discoveries and just the continual growth of highly dynamic systems, Prometheus has also improved handling of potentially untrusted or misconfigured targets. First, it is now possible to limit the size and the count of labels. So if it's especially useful one time, write a service writing arbitrary error messages into a label value, sometimes as large as 100 kilobytes in a single label value, quickly brought my Prometheus instance to its knees. Second, you can also now limit the body size of a scrape, which can catch some high-carnal use cases that may also cause issues in your Prometheus instance. And finally, starting in the most recent version of Prometheus, we're going to allow the configuration of scrape intervals and timeouts via relabeling in your service discovery. This means things like a generic Kubernetes job will be able to customize a scrape timeout, a scrape interval on each service or each pod without having to create more and more complex configurations for one-off cases. Combined, all of these new service discovery integrations and just the additional control you have over scraping your targets, allow more use cases and more safety than ever before. Now back to Bartek to learn about the new backfilling capabilities in Prometheus. Thank you. So in this kind of feature, what is very, very important is that we need to understand that for some people, like for most of the users of any observability solution, data is precious because once collected, you usually cannot collect it again for this situation that happened before. So sometimes you want to persist that data even across different systems. This is why there are more and more cases when user want to import bigger datasets of series, metrics to Prometheus setups, for example. It might be due to migrating to Prometheus from other systems or even between Prometheus in a different locations or maybe bring back up data when you lose your, for example, persistent disk. And data backfilling was always possible, not maybe always, but for a couple of years already, but yet only recently with community, we made it much more approachable. So let me explain how you can achieve that and import large number of metric series today. So first command that I would like to introduce or like the solution is maybe you are familiar with the Prom tool. Prom tool is like another binary that builds with the Prometheus project and it allows you to perform certain operations on your local machine or the or on the server. It's like a CLI tool. So we recently added a command called tsdb create blocks from. And then it allows you to define, create a tsdb blocks from different inputs. A tsdb block is essentially a data in a format that Prometheus understand and uses to store metrics in an efficient way, right? So if we can create in an easy way those maybe complex binary format blocks from very easy formats like open metrics or YAML, then we can just create those and put it in output and then literally just copy or move those blocks into your Prometheus local storage. And Prometheus will immediately load those and even start compacting or re-compacting vertically for efficiency purposes, right? So this is why we create the tsdb create blocks from open metrics where you provide open metric format files for different at the same time periods. And you can really literally use something like Prometheus exposition formats open metrics and pack multiple series for multiple timestamps and efficiently create the tsdb block from that on your local setup or somewhere else and then move the blocks. So that's kind of the general backfitting solution. But there is one thing more that we did. So it's a common thing that when you do recording crews or even other thing, mostly for recording crews you are recording those rules or evaluating the certain expression for longer time. And then it might be some disruption at the some point of time, like let's say for three days your cluster were down for some reason or like your machine with Prometheus were down and you have a gap of three days. Now, what you can do right now, you can backfill rule backfill this data which means that you can perform the same recording crew but for the past data and catch up and build this gap of data and import directly into the Prometheus again. Which is amazing because you can just fix that the previous gaps if you still have a raw data for this moment, right? And this is especially important when you have like distributed rules system maybe with the Cortex system and Thanos but it might be useful for Prometheus cases as well. So for this, you use these to be create blocks from rules. Thanks, Bartek. Next up, there's another new feature in Prometheus which is exemplars. Exemplars provide a way to associate context or other information to your metrics and are commonly used for adding tracing information to counters or histograms. So what does an exemplar look like? Here's an example of exemplars being exported using the open metrics format. You can see two exemplars, one with a tracity of fast and one with a tracity of slow but you can add any data that you would like to these that is helpful for you. In addition, you're provided the value of the observation of the exemplar as well as the timestamp for when that value was observed. These fields allow the Prometheus UI and Grafana to plot exemplars on time series charts. For example, here's how exemplars are represented with the Prometheus user interface. I'm graphing the 99th percentile of request lengthies for Cortex and then you can click on any of the exemplars present in the graph to find a trace ID that you can look for in your favorite tracing tool. If you filter the series to only look at certain pods or error status codes, you will also only get exemplars relevant to those series always matching the context that you're looking at. Having the ability to quickly jump from an alert or a dashboard to an example trace is very powerful and streamlines both incident and debugging workflows. Then client library support for exemplars is still growing. Currently, both Java and Go fully support exemplars and Python has an open pull request to add basic support that will be merged soon. In order to enable collecting exemplar data in Prometheus as well as sending it with remote write to other systems that might use that exemplar data, you can use the exemplar storage feature flag. Also note that exemplars are only collected when using the open metrics exposition format. Open metrics is negotiated by default when Prometheus scrapes a target, but some libraries such as client-golling require feature flag to enable open metrics. I hope you find exemplars as useful as I do. Now back to Bartek to discuss multi-cluster use cases for Prometheus. Thank you, Chris. Yeah, I mean, exemplars, this is something I really would love to use more and more these days. It helps so much to correlate with traces or really to get the workflow done much, much easier. But now let's talk about very common thing that are starting to, well, emerge for many of us. We used to have just one big Kubernetes clusters, but nowadays with companies and startups building solutions that can spin up Kubernetes clusters in minutes or even seconds, it's a very common that we have many of them. In Red Hat, we have dozens of thousands of them running around the world. So how do you even cope with that? And what are the monitoring challenges or deployment models that we can use with Prometheus? So we have one cluster, let's imagine it's like in Europe and it's kind of production, we might have different environments, you have applications and then as we discussed, there is a Prometheus running there to monitor them and what you do if you have more of them. Now, something that I want to show as a kind of anti-pattern, never do that essentially, never try to put Prometheus outside of those clusters in let's say another region or another cluster somewhere very remotely in a different network and try to use scraping mechanisms. So very low latency, 15 seconds interval or even faster scrape between those zones. And the reason is that you need to have like a very reliable network or reliable situation to actually have reliable monitoring from that. So you want to have the Prometheus very close to our application or really the ingestion part, the pulling part very close to the application. This is why never do that, never put Prometheus in a different failure domain. But what you can do is that, right? So generally what was always was possible, again, not always but probably like three, four years was hierarchical federation. And essentially what it does is that you federate. So you can say scrapes from one Prometheus on top of another, right? And usually you do that only for a set of metrics with maybe even different interval. So you can actually group and aggregate data on the second layer and on some other cluster, for example, and be able to query that data from a single place and have all the data there. If for example, your Prometheus will die on or your cluster totally die, right? You still have data. And that's kind of a great approach but it has its own trade-offs. First of all, it's a double scrape again. It's against scrape across the domain. So it's not very reliable for all cases. And overall, you usually need to have, you cannot fetch all the data. You have to fetch like very small percentage of the data to make it even possible. So there are a lot of myths of this to the solution. So what kind of, we build or a community build is for example, remote with integration, the Prometheus. So this allowed systems like Thanos to just attach to the Prometheus. So build, we can kind of have a sidecar that kind of transform that data to some JRPC API which is kind of easier to use in Thanos. And then you can place some kind of querying component, aggregating aggregation component on global level to have to be able to query the data from multiple locations, multiple clusters. And I'm talking about hundreds, thousands and every query will try to find a proper place and find out to the relevant places for the data and aggregate and perform promql evaluation on top of that. And this is thanks of the remote read protocol which allows fetching series from Prometheus directly. Again, the limitation at trade-off here is that you are accessing the data which is still on those cluster kind of components on those clusters. So when the cluster is down or maybe network is unreliable between you and the cluster, you don't have visibility of those metrics. The advantage is that you don't move any data, right? Well, you don't move persistently and you don't persist anywhere. You only move it when you need them, right? And generally to be honest, like we love scraping a lot of collecting a lot of data but we don't use most of them. So this might be great solution for you. But it's not only that. I think what is getting more and more popular and what people use is remote write which means that you switch kind of to the opposite model instead of you pulling of the data, you're pushing it somewhere else and actually persisting there for forever. Sometimes you have like a cheap storage. So Prometheus then uses remote write feature to stream the data samples every sample or the samples you want to stream. So maybe portion of the data that you have inside cluster into the some other cluster and then there are different many solutions that allow you to receive this data, including Thanos, Cortex, and recently we quit even some system that allows you to kind of configure that in a kind of SAS product observatorium. But there are so many other solutions that you can have them listed here. And that might be the something that will work for you. Beyond just those big clustered systems like Cortex, like Thanos, like things like that that you're sending to, if you don't have a ton of data or you only want to send a small subset of data similar to what you do with a traditional federation, is that native Prometheus is the Prometheus binary can now be enabled to receive remote write requests. This means all of your clusters can just send a small amount of maybe the result of recording rules to a central Prometheus where you can evaluate global rules and global alerts. And advance to this is you get all of the nice remote write semantics with retrying requests or things like that if there is some sort of network partition that occurs between your central Prometheus and your many clusters. This also feeds into edge clients which we'll talk to a little bit next. So what happens if you just can't store your metrics next to your apps? This happens in lightweight clusters running just like Raspberry Pis, IoT machines or maybe dynamic clusters that don't exist very long and don't have storage for Prometheus or you just don't have persistent disks wherever you're trying to collect metrics from. That can make a traditional Prometheus architecture very challenging. And many times it's very hard to scrape data from an edge client or things like that. The upcoming Prometheus agent seeks to solve these use cases. So Prometheus agent is a mode in Prometheus just configured with a flag that you can run Prometheus and all it does is collect data and forward that data via remote write to another Prometheus instance or any of the remote write receivers that we just saw on a previous slide. This new mode is based on the Grafana agent and it's contributed by Grafana Labs. Running an agent mode will minimize the disk and memory consumed by Prometheus while still having a right ahead log for reliable sample delivery. Feel free to follow pull request 8785 for updates as this work is completed. Then beyond the just agent mode and the remote write receiving capabilities we're also working on improvements to the core server to better support resource constrained environments. For example, there are some settings recently added to Prometheus to just lower the amount of disk space that Prometheus needs to provision for every block of data. And we are welcome to any more contributions that will help enable these low resource use cases. Thanks, that's pretty exciting. So last but not the least, let's talk about use case that pops up here and there again, which is multi-tenancy, right? Which is essentially, what if we can reduce the cost of running Prometheus servers by essentially running one of them for multiple teams that don't necessarily like each other or like don't want to see each other later? How to enable that? And this is something that we try to evolve as well. And I want to explain how you can achieve that right now, especially on the QVD system. So you can, the problem here, as you can imagine, let's be specific is that in the cluster you might have the instances that you want to make sure they are only single or like multiple replicas but the kind of single element there. And you want to make this reusable for multiple teams that, and you want to kind of isolate their experience. So, but the problem is there are lots of shared resources here. In Grafana, as you specify set of dashboards, you specify a certain configuration. You don't want multiple teams to access the same set of dashboards because they can impact each other, maybe create a dashboard with the same name and suddenly everything will not work for another team. The same with other manager. And this is actually very critical. You kind of, there is normally a single place of configuring routing and providers which tells you know, from what alerts should be routed to watch a notifier like maybe page or duty or this kind of slack or whatever, you know, if we allow configuring this by multiple people that don't know each other kind of goals, then well, we might have a clash here. And similarly to Prometheus itself where we specify set of scrape targets. So what should be monitored? And we've worked with what are lurking rules of this if it's configured from a single place then we might have a serious incidents when people are impacting each other from the configuration standpoint. So this is what Prometheus operator is aiming to solve in the Kubernetes ecosystem. So you have Prometheus operator and Grafana operator which kind of recently emerged. Those servers, they essentially define a certain APIs allowing each team to have their own set of, you know rules, recording rules, alerting rules, service monitors which specifies what things should be scraped what targets should be specified for Prometheus and the other manager configurations. So routines and those providers and dashboards you can have your own set of dashboards and it's only your dashboards you don't need to see, you know, other teams resources. So by providing that for Kubernetes APIs we have, you know, by default all the airbag kind of access controls. So we make sure that, you know this team can only access namespaces. So resources, so those dashboards and configurations that only relates to them. And then we can use Grafana operator and Prometheus operator that will watch Kubernetes APIs and essentially merge those things together. So merge other configuration into one merge service monitors into one scraped configuration of Prometheus and inject that to the single resources like Prometheus and other manager and Grafana. And this is what we use in production right now in Red Hat and we really, I mean, recommend doing that if you have like multiple teams and you don't want to impact each other. And there was also one important point which is at the end, you know, configuration is one thing but second thing is how you access this data while providing some data isolation. You can do that with Grafana thanks to the, you know, access control mechanism many of those, but Prometheus doesn't have that but it doesn't mean that you cannot do it because there are already community driven and very well supported proxies. For example, from label proxy that allows you to essentially inject a certain label into the PromQL making sure, you know, your team only sees your own data, nothing else. And we use that heavily on Cortex system, Tano system, so all those systems are derived from Prometheus as well. So it's like a very, very flexible solution here. And, you know, all those things that we improved on the scraping part that Chris mentioned in the very beginning. So making sure resource constraints are, you know, respected and also, you know, there are scrape limits and all of those isolation mechanics. This helps as well because you also limit the possibility of, you know, one team providing, you know, so many metrics or so broken metric endpoints that will, you know, be stopped and be rate limited before it kills the whole Prometheus server, for example. So those approaches are exactly for this purpose for the multi-tenancy cases. So you have some links for those operators if you want to check them out and you can totally check those out and help building and improving those as well. But there are certain things that we always, you know, evolve into and we have two that we are super exciting to, excited to announce. And the first thing is this idea of ingestion scalability automation. What it means is that thanks to the agents mode that we kind of start to, you know, implement and provide, it means that in a sense ingestion, so those the scrape mechanism and service discovery is stateless. So, you know, the data is pulled and immediately forwarded to some remote server. This allows us to scale them dynamically and using, you know, horizontal poke out of scalars and communities or any other solution because suddenly we can dynamically assign scrape targets into multiple agents. So you, if you're Prometheus, if your communities cluster scales from one node to thousand we can dynamically, you know, also scale those ingestion pipelines. It's not like a one Prometheus server that suddenly you need to have more of those which are stateful, it's kind of harder to achieve. So I'm super excited to see those mechanism and we, I hope we can also work with open telemetry to make that, to improve that part as well. Yeah, we also have high density histograms that has work going on right now to support. The new histogram format will provide both higher resolution and higher accuracy of histogram quantile calculations and a significant cost savings in terms of how expensive histograms aren't a store and just how much data is in your Prometheus TSTB. I highly recommend checking out just a few days ago at the DayZero PromCon event, my colleagues Ganesh and Dieter gave a talk about the work they've done in this area. Please check it out. And finally, thank you for listening to our talk, provided some links to reach out to the overall Prometheus community as well as each of us individually. And now we have a few minutes to answer any questions that you have, thank you. Thank you.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5R6Fy21MXVE", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

When I left full-time work in public service, I've been in public service all my life. I wanted to carry on using a lot of the skills I've developed and I saw an advertisement for the probation board and I joined the probation board and I served on that through its time as a trust and then eventually moved to the police authority, which again was another public appointment I thoroughly enjoyed. But when the police authority ended, I didn't want to give up then my public work and as has often happened to me in my life, a friend said, have you seen this and told me about the advert and I looked at it and I thought, remuneration panel didn't kind of grab me immediately as being very exciting but then when I looked at it and thought about the implications of the work, I realised I actually had quite a lot to give because I'd been involved in local government all my life and I'd done a lot of work with elected members and I'd designed training packages for councillors and I'd actually delivered a lot of those training events to councillors so I felt I knew quite a lot about their job and what their interests were. The panel itself is easy to work in, they're a great bunch and we have terrific support from the Secretary here so the actual meeting time is always interesting and fun but what I'd I think pick out most of all is the opportunity to go and meet with councillors and last year we went to visit every local authority in Wales, we didn't all go to each one but I went to quite a lot of them and we talked to councillors, the what you'd call back bench councillors as well as leaders of authorities, deputy leaders, we talked to the mayors and we had a wonderful experience because we had first hand experience of what it's like to be a councillor. We were able to say, well what do you think of our remuneration package? What are the issues for you? Some of the things that came up we were able to bring back and have a think about. For example we found that quite that very few people were taking up the care allowance that was that's available and so we were able to collect up some of that information and that's something that we're working on to see how we can encourage more people to take advantage of the care allowance so I think it's that interaction with people, the reality of what we do in our report and how that affects people out there on the ground doing a job for all of our local communities. Huge numbers of people in our country are from different backgrounds, different cultures, different races and we also have a lot of people who have all kinds of disabilities so we are a diverse nation but that tends not to be represented in our public committees and that's why it's important. I think that different people have different experiences and bring something different to it and I feel as a woman, I mean the only woman on this rather small panel there are only five of us and I think I bring a different point of view it's no better and no worse than the points of view of everyone else it is different and that's why it's important we need to encourage more and more people who've had a different life experience to come forward and take part in public life. I think as you probably realise I've very much enjoyed my time on the panel so if there's anyone who is interested in joining our panel stop and think about all the things you can do that you've done think about your skills make a list of what I can do don't be persuaded to think you can't do it and I think this sounds very gendered but it does seem that often women in particular and I think it may well be true for people from from other ethnic groups I think sometimes people think well I can't do it I haven't done it before I think the key is to say I probably can do it what you can also do is talk to someone else who sits on a public committee and get a sense of what it's like sometimes I think it can sound a bit scary as I said to you in the beginning when I looked at the remuneration panel I think something about the language sometimes the jargon that can put people off don't be put off talk to somebody talk to someone who's done the job before and have the confidence to go ahead and do it because we need more and more people we need more women we need more people who from different backgrounds in this country to come forward and serve and it is serving and it's it's something that's worth doing so don't be afraid to apply come forward	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5R3QUUOQ5vY", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

It's going to be the debit. It's another period cost of cash, and that's going to equal And if we scroll over it's going to equal Scrolling down to the general it's going to equal that 33 There and then we're going to credit something so I'm going to credit the 33 to the cash And so we've got the general salaries is going to equal that 33 and the cash is going to go down I'm going to double click on cash go to the end of it. That's the credit and that puts us back in balance here and Then we'll scroll back down scrolling back down and Highlight that so we've done this one Actually, but there's one more piece to that. There's the interest so the interest in the cash So I'm going to say interest expense on the long-term debt interest expense here interest expense and that's going to be the 15 1000 and we're going to credit to cash once again so cash and That's going to be interest expense is going to go up in the debit Cash we're going to double click on it go to the end of it and once again It's negative, but it's going to be okay. We're going to fix that and Cash is going to be credited. All right now. We're going to highlight that off for sure If we haven't done so so far and we're going to scroll down So that is in okay So now we're going to account for the cash that we received From the sales that we recorded on account. So we had the cash But this is the total sales. These are the cash sales and these are the sales on credit We recorded that what we didn't record is the collection of the revenues we made on sales during this time period So this this is the amount one will need to record so of the credit sales that we made up here We have collected some of those we sold them on credit But it's been three months. So we've collected some of that in this time period So we're going to debit cash and credit accounts receivable For the amount that we've received on the credit sales that we've made in this quarter And I'm going to say that equals and scroll down to the cash So we're scrolling down to cash Down here Not the budget we could get it from the budget actually but it's going to be these items here So I'm going to go up here. I'm going to sum them up because I don't have a total column on this one So I'm going to say it's the sum of the collections so there we have that and We could then credit The the receivable and now our cash should look a lot better. So we're going to go up to cash We're going to double-click on it and go to the end of it plus and then we're going to have our cash here and Our accounts receivable double-click go to the end of it plus and we're going to say the receivables there Okay, and then we had some miscellaneous items that happened. So that's going to take us through this stuff here So we basically did the cash here. We did the receivables So we did that and then we have the cash budget and we had some other kind of miscellaneous I read this loan interest here. So we've got the if we want to record that out. We'd have to say that we have interest expense again interest expense and That's for the 120 it was and we're crediting something and we're going to pay that with cash Interest expense and cash So that's the 120 Cash is going down with the credit and Interest expense is going up with the debit Okay, and if we scroll back down so we say, okay, we took care of that miscellaneous type item down here So that's that one. We already recorded this interest. We're okay there Then we have this equipment we put the equipment and we paid cash for equipment. We didn't have financed it or anything So we're just going to say the equipment on the books. We got more that it's going to go up with a debit and We're going to pay it all with cash. So cash is going to be the 130 on both sides 130 and 130 So we can record that it's it's got to be even it's got to be a journal entry It has to work so we're going to say all right go to the end of that cash is going to go down with a credit And we put it into equipment here plus the debit Like so and so we've recorded the equipment that should recognize we should be okay with our cash there and Then we had the dividend here as well as dividend So dividend we paid out with cash. We're saying so we're going to say okay the dividend happened I'm going to pay the owners the dividend. We're going to credit its cash For that so credits cash and that's going to be ten thousand So there's the dividend and we're going to record that cash is going to go down again by this ten thousand the dividend now is going to be recorded at the 10,000 we did the equipment Okay, and What else do we have down here? We had this pesky loan that we paid off here and then we basically Took another loan out so I'm just gonna net those two out and note note that this should be netted out like this It should be this minus this so really what happened is we basically paid off net 3840 to get us to that minimum balance so I'm instead of writing two journal entries one paying the loan off and then taking another loan Out like we could I'm just gonna say that we paid off over the three three month period 3840 of the loan so we had a loan at the beginning 12 and it's down to eight at eight 160 as of the end We paid off 3840 of it. So we're just gonna say I'm gonna I'm just gonna say well, okay Here's my loan amount. It needs to go down with a debit So we're gonna debit that and then we're gonna credit cash So I'm gonna credit cash like that and the amounts just gonna be equal to That's number that we were just looking at the eight thousand something Right or the three thousand eight forty They're leaving us with eight thousand something hopefully and so we're gonna say alright Let's do that and then if we record this then the cash is gonna go down again So cash is gonna go down and the short-term notes goes from 12 down to that eight thousand something Hopefully so the short-term notes see here it goes	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rkvwNOyB1Y", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }
UCSp74J3CBqsbsT5Jy8qjCVA	2021 National Teach Ag Day	It's #NationalTeachAgDay, so we talked to current and former ag students around the state about the mentors who influenced their love and passion for agriculture. To these special mentors and to all the great ag teachers in Arkansas, we say 'thank you' for the guidance, knowledge and inspiration! Happy National Teach Ag Day!	null	2021-09-16T20:55:51	2024-02-14T20:03:30	272	5R1E7tGCE_8	My name is Brock Roberts and this is Lindy Rooker, we're Education Coordinators at Arkansas Farm Bureau and today is National Teacher Ag Day. We have put together a series of testimonies to highlight the mentors who have rooted our love and passion for the agriculture industry. Hi, I'm Katie Rashard from the North Fork FFB chapter and I want to thank my Ag Advisor, Mr. Cotter. He's made a huge impact on my life and definitely taught me everything that I know about agriculture. I want to thank him for hauling me to every livestock show even if it's freezing cold and in December and a really long drive away. Thank you for absolutely everything that you do. It definitely does not go unnoticed. I wouldn't be the person I am today without you, so I thank you for that. My name is Sadie Bowen and I'm from Lena. I would thank my Grandpa Kenny Bowen and my Ag Teacher, Mr. Levi. Being raised on a farm by my Grandpa and raising rice, corn and soybeans has taught me a lot about farming and the importance of it. And being in Ag classes since ninth grade, I've been taught many skills that I will use in my future and other sides of agriculture. My Ag inspirations are my dad, my Grandpa, and my Ag Teacher, Mr. Levi. Without them, I would not be taking Ag classes in high school and I would not want to be an FFA like I am right now and I'm very involved in that. And I would not want to pursue a degree in Ag business when I graduate this spring. Without them, I would not be the person I am today. They have really pushed me to be involved with my community and my peers at school. And without them, I just, I wouldn't be the person I am today. Hey, this is Rob Rodell and I've been asked, who influenced me in agriculture? And I'm proud to say my Grandpa Rodell and Grandpa Emmons both did. They were row crop farmers in Northeast Arkansas and they loved to watch crops grow, specifically cotton back in the day later on in the rice. It's a big influence on me. It's one of the reasons I'm a strong advocate for Arkansas agriculture today. Thanks. Hello, my name is Beth Treville at Arkansas and I would like to thank my Alacostia advisor, Mr. Brazil, for being a good person. Mr. Brazil has taught me how to take care of my goats who I am thankful for. I show goats thanks to the support of my dad and Mr. Brazil. Happy National Teach Ag Day. I'm Taylor Wiseman and I grew up in Vologna and I would love to give a shout out to some of my ag teachers there. Mr. McCain, Ms. Brown, Mr. Dewey and Ms. Griffin. Thank you so much for believing in me and helping me accomplish my goals as I was growing up. I am who I am today because of the influence that you had on my life. So thank you to you and all the other folks out there who've chosen to teach ag and ultimately change the lives of students. Thanks so much. My name is Taylor Butcherm. I'm from Mount Pine, Arkansas. My dad James Butcherm has taught me so much about ag culture. It's not all about living on a farm and our livestock. It's about becoming a better person. Ag is about leadership and responsibilities. Ag is about a family. It's about a family that you're going to take care of and be there for one another. I want to thank my ag advisor as well for helping me become a better person, the person that I am today. Thank you, Mr. Brazil. I'm Jesse Boxton from Houston, Arkansas and I want to give a shout out to my favorite ag teacher, my dad, Jim Boxton. He always used to say that there's an art to everything, whether it be tractor driving or farming or anything in between your education, your family life and he was probably the best agriculturist that I've ever met. Always continually learning, going to extension meetings and Farm Bureau and Catamens meetings. Whatever came down the path where he could learn and be better when he got back to the farm, that's what he did. And I just want to say thank you for all you've done. Whether you're a parent, a grandparent, ag teacher, extension agent or a neighbor, thank you for your influence on the future leaders of agriculture. Happy National Teach Ag Day from all of us here at Arkansas Farm Bureau.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5R1E7tGCE_8", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }
UC7SbfAPZf8SMvAxp8t51qtQ	Welcome	by Debconf Organizers At: DebConf 6 https://debconf6.debconf.org/ Scheduled start: 2006-05-14	[ "debian", "debconf", "debconf6" ]	2017-11-22T02:38:47	2024-04-24T00:14:34	699	5RMpgCP3tjU	So I hand over to Stockholm for the official welcome speech. Thanks. This won't be a speech. I just want to thank you all for coming, for attending. I welcome you very much. I'm glad that so many, again, had the chance to come. Yeah, I feel always accelerated when I meet so many DV developers, and I enjoy it immensely to meet you every year. A few months ago, I was at a conference in Finland, and there was a representative of a big multinational company talking about their business model and WebSphere and stuff. And he said that his company was in the Linux market not for the ideological things like making the world a better place or so, but for money and for building business and stuff. And later on, I gave a talk, and I said that, among other things, that Debian was in the Linux market not to make money, but to make the world a better place, among other things. And just a few days ago, I met here in Mexico a guy who uses Debian in a small linguistic project where he works with some tribes, which don't have a language, but they would want to keep the language. And so they work with pedagogues and linguists to develop alphabets and everything. And he uses Debian, and he walks long distances because there are no roads and stuff, and he works with hardly any existing budget. And for some reason, that excited me more, made me more happy, more proud even, than just another phone call with a big company representative which uses Debian to boost their business because it's a stable and reliable system. And I was really happy to hear that here in Mexico, we actually do help as a force for good to make the world a better place for some people. And I would like to thank you for being part of that, for building packages, for making a high quality distribution that is actually so usable, so worthwhile, so actually great. And yeah, well, this is something that I'm really proud of, to be able to work with you and with this conference, to trick you all into working with Debian one more year, to put more energy into it, to be excited about it, and to spend immense amounts of time on this, even though you don't get anything from it. Well, you get something, but most likely not money. Thank you very much. And now I need to volunteer who wears this kind of t-shirt because I need to have a look at all the sponsors. Could you please stand up and turn around? Thank you. We have, of course, a lot of sponsors this year again. Most outstanding again is HP, which gave us a little less than half of the conference budget, I think. Really, if you see an HP representative, give him a hug. Oh, yeah. Thank you. Thank you. Then, right, not right, but then we have, as a really noticeable sponsor, Nokia, and almost right on the same level, Intel, which gave, yeah, a lot of money. We have also IBM and Gandy. Do you know Gandy? That's the small registrar. And lots of deep-in developers actually use it. NetApp also on the same level. Opera software, and there were more. Yeah, we have so many sponsors. It's really hard to, yeah. We have HP, IBM, Intel, and then a Mexican, Jagueta. Guna will mention what they sponsored. Nokia, VA Linux, Ubuntu, Talart, Telecom, Aruba, they are doing our wireless network here. AlphaNAS, Colax, Xandros, FNB, they are doing hosting, Gandy, GNU, Linux, no, actually, they are the extra-madura place in Spain, which helped us sponsor travel, sponsored trip. This one I can't read. Linspire, Linux, New Media, they are giving us a one-page ad in their magazines worldwide, which we used to attract sponsors with a thank you ad. MySQL, and this must be the University of Pedagogic Things here in Mexico. NetApp, Opera, Software, O'Reilly, which gave you books. Here comes the University with, OK, I'm not sure. CineNomino, Associated, Unvention, Amazon, CompuGraph, NeoCenter, Copy Left, VoxKit, and ByteMark hosting. They are doing the hosting for a Debcon fork. Yeah, I guess you all know that without their money, we most likely wouldn't be as many as we are now, like 20 or 30, I guess. I'm not sure. Yeah, and then we also have a bunch of local volunteers, which spend amazing amounts of money on time on this, making this happen. There are Gunnar, where's Gunnar? There, here. He lost a lot of weight, by the way. I'm not sure it's due to. It's not due to Debcon, but he did that on purpose. And then we have his wife, Gabriela, who also, yeah, well, I think they actually split the work. Somewhere else also, Darmock is somewhere here? Is he here? I'm not sure. And Yair, no, no, Yair, he's helped a lot with a wireless setup and with shopping for our needs. So we have a quite small local team, which spent a lot of effort on this to make this happen. And I would like to thank you guys very much. Punco, where's he? Is he here? He's in Mexico. He's the guy who built our wireless antennas and the access points, which do the bridging from the high pole on the, where's the, somewhere there, down to the internet cafe in the village. Yeah, it has been a very exciting time, the Debcamp time, actually, because lots of things happened then and the internet became stable, actually. We hope that the pole on the roof keeps being stable. It doesn't fall off. Yeah. Now I would like to ask Gunnar to say a few words. And if our beloved DPL is here, could he perhaps also move himself? And no. OK, yeah. OK, thanks. Well, a few words. I was not prepared for this. Well, thank you. I'm very, very happy to finally have you here. It's been, well, at least three years of trying to bring you all and one year working, because for everybody who's interested in having Debcamp in their countries, it's very important that you get involved in the Debcamp team at least 20 years before. And one year of hellish work here. I really hope this will make the free software movement and the Debian involvement in Mexico grow. Well, I don't know. I could also go again through the list of local sponsors. Of course, the local companies have helped us most with infrastructure, with lending equipment we could not have got otherwise. I'm not going over the list that Stockholm already read. I don't know if you have any other piece of clothes to give to us. No? OK, well, there's not much more to say. We have many people also who, well, even we don't know, but we don't have their names like handy, but have helped us tremendously. And well, I know I can count on any of you. So even if you don't expect it, we will be requiring random people to do random stuff. The nice thing about Debian is that we know we can do it. We know each of you, each of the people that came to Debcamp are part of the team. Each of you are interested in working with us. So this is not just another conference. Well, and that's it for me. So welcome and enjoy your stay. Have a nice time. And Tolimar, you are the protocol man.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5RMpgCP3tjU", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

It's your man, Cobra. Welcome to the Digital Dash. I'll be giving you guys tips on how to market your songs like adults. Now I'm just booming. Now today I have a very special guest with me, my guy, Arshan. He is a media personality, a journalist based out of Montreal County. Is that correct? Vancouver, Canada. So the west side of Canada. Vancouver, okay, my bad man. So based out of Vancouver, he owns this really cool platform called Kids Takeover. They interview everyone from Holo G to Murder Beasts to Zay Tsovain. Just a really bunch of cool creatives and artists that are currently coming up to the scene, man. So appreciate you, bro. Appreciate you for joining me today and hopping on here and giving us a game, man. Thanks man. Thanks for having me on. I like your content and I'm excited to be here. Appreciate it, man. I'm glad to see you staying happy, healthy, hydrated, washing your hands, bro. That's what we're doing right now. Yeah, man. So I'm real big on just thinking that every person is bigger than their platform or their jobs or what they're doing and that we all pretty much have a story that kind of got us here. So, you know, if you would be so kind as to let us know what got you into the space that you were in today, you know, saying what were you doing before that, what kind of inspired you to start moving to the space of making your own outlet? Right. Well, so I'm 20 years old right now. I just turned 20 and I wanted to be a journalist when I was in high school. But I think like grade 11, I really wanted to be like an on-air personality for complex and hot new hip hop, all those blogs, right? And, you know, I would apply to all those places. I had a YouTube channel where I was just making little videos, but I actually got denied like every single place pretty much. So at some point I was like, you know, I need to do this myself. I need to like make my own media outlet. So at first I would just interview these random small artists. And then eventually, you know, I would just like shoot a DM to every single artist or manager who came to Vancouver. And I'm pretty sure that like one person would let me do the interview. So I got one interview with Swoopy Marjorie, I left from the eight-step mob. And then from there on, I just, I made sure I used that interview to get the next one. And I just kept slightly like getting a better interview. And then from there, you know, I just kind of built credibility. Okay. So it's interesting. So Swoopy was the entry point into it. And you just were using that to leverage other interviews. What is that conversation sound like? Is it like, hey, check out my platform, we got Swoopy, you know what I'm saying? Take me a little bit more seriously? Or was it just hoping that, you know, like a artist would care and at least open up to having a conversation with you? Yeah, I think well, basically the thing is, is like, you know, if you, even if you're like nobody or if you're like kind of nobody, right? If you send out 100 emails, one person will respond, right? Yeah. So my thing was like, okay, I know one person is going to respond to me. So next time, you know, if I want to interview Zaytov, and at least I have something good to show them, right? So I just made sure that the Swoopy interview went amazing. It looked amazing, because that was my only sample of work, right? So yeah, you know, I just showed that to Zaytov's manager. They liked it. I showed the Zaytov an interview to Murder Beats his manager. They liked it. Yeah. Okay. Okay, so what's what has been what has been the hardest interview for you to get? Like, which, which interview stands out in particular? Like, oh, this was a tough one to get. And how did you get over whatever was making that a hard interview? Damn. Um, in terms of hardest to get. Um, you know, the thing is, when you have, when you have like barely any credibility in the start, you, you rely on like DMing manager stuff, right? And if they respond to you, you know, who knows, maybe they might not respond like 10 hours later. So I'm trying to think of it. I think there was a guy named Mr. Easy. He was like a really big international artist that I interviewed. And he's a very nice commission. His team has been nice. But like, the first day I did it, I was going to do the interview with him, I waited like six hours for them to tell me like, you know, he was sleeping in his hotel. So then I had to drive all the way back home where I live and come back the next day and then do the interview. So I guess just, you know, the hardest part is, is waiting and not knowing, are you going to get the interview? Are they just going to bail on you? You know, that's the hardest part. Okay, is it, is it, is it hard getting certain artists to like open up their interviews or getting them to, um, I guess what I'm trying to ask is, I feel like we're seeing that since so many of the bigger outlets or more for lack of better terms, I say like major control and a lot of artists aren't getting the opportunities to do interviews with these media outlets. I personally feel like we're starting to see like less and less media trained artists who really know how to like take full advantage of an interview. Are you, are you seeing that on your end? 100%. Yeah, I can easily tell which artists have been media trained and then which person just like doesn't even want to be there. So I would say like, the more they respect you, the better the interviewers, you know, if they don't know you at all, um, there's just a bigger chance that they're just gonna like slouch and, you know, not really explain a story fully. Um, you just got to like make them respect you. You know what I'm talking about? Yeah, yeah. And I get that. Like getting under respect to art, respect to content, want to be on the platform, that type of stuff. So let's keep that same thought in mind then. So let's say I'm an artist and I haven't done a lot of interviews. I'm looking at a platform like yours. I said, you reach out to me, you want to do the interview. What are some of the things that just offer what you've noticed help to make an artist interview stand out or resonate? Whether that be from the standpoint of just being a good piece of content or just to the point of even being something that like their fans look at it like, oh, shit, this was a really dope interview for you. I think every artist, big or small, should look at an interview the same way as the ones they watch, you know, like, would they watch this video if it was coming out, you know, like, let's say I did an interview with a small artist, that small artist should do the interview as if, you know, it's on the breakfast or something, you know, just explain things with stories because that's what people actually relate to. If you just give like two sentence answers and like, you know, things that are just super boring and not different from everyone else, like no one's going to watch your interview and no one's going to connect to it. So like fans, you know, like you will gain fans of people actually connect to your stories, your background. So you got to be able to actually explain that in your interviews. Okay, who's been who's been your favorite interview from like that standpoint? They gave great answers. They did, you know, all the, all the right things. They took up all the right boxes in your opinion. And what were some of those things about the interview that made it just a really good interview? Um, yeah, there's a lot, but I would say, I would say Toby Lou because, you know, he was kind of talking to me as if I was his friend, he wasn't being disrespectful at all. But the best thing is like, you know, if I would say any topic, he would just like bring up a story from back then, like we talked about Juice World. And he's like, oh yeah, you know, I went to school with Juice World and all that stuff. So it's like, you know, you can use those little little clips and like people actually like watch it online, like people think that stuff is interesting. So Toby Lou for sure. Who else? Let me think. Man, I've done so many interviews that I'm just drawing a blank. Let me see. Yeah, I'd say I'd say Toby Lou was the best. Okay, okay. So let's step back a little bit and kind of I feel like a big, a big question that we always get is kind of what point should I start seeking to have these conversations or do these things with these media outlets? I feel like it's a big industry debate of always between like press versus just pure like marketing, like some people were like, oh, you need the blogs, you need the media outlets to cover certain things, to be legitimate, arson it up. Those are those who feel like you don't need the media outlets. You can do your thing without them. What's your stance on it? Where do you see new media outlets like it was kind of fitting into the mode of our career? That's an interesting question. I think I okay, if I were an artist, right, I wouldn't bank on like, oh, I need interviews, I need to have this media outlet mess with me. Because at the end of the day, I feel like the best videos come from the ones that are the most genuine, you know, if I, if I really, really like your music, you know, and I reach out to interview you, I already know the interview is going to be great because I'm reaching out to the person right, whereas like, you know, if you're an upcoming artist and you're just like hitting up every single media, like, hey, that's an interview. I don't think that's the right way to go. I think the best way to go is to try to get that media outlet to like, hear your music first, you know, just push your music. Don't don't go straight to the interview because, you know, people just don't like closing on a first transaction like that. Anyways, just, you know, share your music, find, find out when they're doing like an open mic or like an IG live listening session, get your music out like that. And then, yeah, I think from that point on, just start talking with them over DM or reply to their stories. And eventually, you know, you'll build like a, like a little small relationship with them. And even if they don't do an interview with you, they'll eventually like poke your music or something. So I think it's very important to be in touch with the founders of the hip hop media outlet, or even just like the writers, just like try to be friends with them, you know. Okay. Okay. Let's do it like this. It's going more so the advice, everyone gets in the music issues, like find these people that are easy to deal with because they like you and then just stick it out with them until it makes sense for you guys to do something right. Yeah, because I'm not going to say it's annoying, but it's just kind of weird to, you know, talk to someone for the first time. You don't know each other and they're like, Hey, let's do an interview. You know, it's like you just try to become friends or try to build some sort of like, you know, like like get your music to the first, like try to let them hear your stuff first, you know. Okay. That's interesting about it too. So let's let's say that are there are there are there are these etiquette tips that you would give for reaching out to media personalized or just trying to pitch yourself to to just a blog or any of these content networks, anything? First thing I would say support even if it's in a very small way because I think what what I hate and what a lot of other people who own media outlets hate is when people just ask, ask, ask, you know, without like giving anything at all. So like, like people can tell if you're not like, if you're never liking their stuff or like commenting on their stuff or sharing it, like, you know, and you just you just randomly DM them, they're going to be like, Oh, like, you know, you just want something for me. You don't really like care about my stuff. So show a genuine interest in their blog. And if you're emailing them, I would recommend like mention something specific, mention like a specific like on their blog, you know, when people email me and they're like, Hey, man, I loved in the peer interview where you asked peer born this question, you know, like, I like that. I'm like, Oh, you're actually paying attention to my content. Like, you seem like a core person. Goes back to the support. Like, I know that you ask for attention to me. You didn't just see the interviews or the numbers and go like, Yeah, I need to be on that platform. I need to get to me. Yeah. So for and well, actually, let me back up a little bit. So you said before you hopped into creating kids takeover, you were already trying to be a sports journalist who are moving in that space. Yeah, like a music sports journalist, I really want to just be like an on air personality for someone. For like, all right, I was going to ask, have you noticed any differences in well, I guess let me let me back out there. Well, I want to lead this conversation to support those of who are watching this that wants to grow that on the outlet side. Obviously, thanks to things like YouTube and Instagram, you're able to build out these platforms a lot quicker. I personally feel like then more traditional outlets like a complex or like those networks have. So what are some of the what are some of the strategies that you've been doing from your end that you've seen get you good growth results for kids takeover? Like what are some of the is that is there any particular thing that you do like a strategy to it? Or are you just Yeah, I mean, there's a couple. I would say I would say one of the strategies I use is like, you know, once you do an interview, even if it's with a small person, you have to, even if like, you know, this seems wrong or whatever, but you have to get like that little like click baby, like interesting moment because even if you do an interview with someone that's smaller, but he talks about the time when, you know, he met juice rolled out a concert or something, you know, it's like, you have something to attract more listeners and I'm talking about. So it's like always try to, you know, do whatever type of interview you want to do, like stick to your, to your roots, like what you like from an interview, but try to get one clip that you know will like, you know, be seen by other people rather than like just your audience right now. So so do you prep your interviews with that amount of you have a list of topics that are more like, you know, these are used to pull the sound by itself or you just let the conversation just flow into something like that. I definitely have topics that I just am interested in because I don't believe in doing an interview where you're just getting like drama and stuff, right? But I do always plan one thing that I know is going to get on other blogs, you know, like I always, if I interview Enelie Chapa, right? I was like, OK, I have to make sure I get him to talk about like Roddy Rich, you know, I'm talking about. So I asked him, I'm like, oh, like, you know, would you ever do a collab album with Roddy Rich, something like that. And it got on like some Roddy Rich fan days. And it really helped the interview grow, to be honest. Yeah. OK, that's fine. That's fine. So that's does that play a lot into who you reach out to for your interviews? Like, I know, of course, you said you're reaching out to artists that you like. But are you reaching out to artists that you think like that you see has like a unique side to this story that you that you aren't saying it covered and you want to get them to speak on that or you is it just still purely just I like this artist music. And that's the reason I want to talk to them. Both, I think people ask me this often, but like, here's my criteria for who I want to interview, right? One, it's like, obviously, if they're really big artists, they're doing great numbers. Like, yeah, I'm going to want to interview them because it'll help my channel a lot. The second thing is I have to like your music, you know, like, it just has to be good music. I don't want to I don't like interviewing people that I know suck. So that's that. And then the third thing is that they need to have an interesting story. So for me, it's like, you got to either have two of those three or like one of those three or even all those three. But if you lack all of them, then it just doesn't make sense to an interview because like you're saying that with the story thing, it's like, you know, it's just so boring interview somebody who gives you these like, like one sentence answers. And, you know, if you're not having fun in the interview, there's like literally no point of doing it. Yeah, that's interesting, man. That's that's a great point you brought up. Very great point we bring up a lot is the having the story like stuff artists need to have a reason for you to even want to talk to them, right? Because we'll be we'll get clients and things who want to do press and we'll be like, OK, before we start reaching out to a publisher, something like, what's your story? Because if the story is X Artist Drops new song, that's not interesting to you, right? That is that's the worst story in the world. It's like X artists, you know, wrote this story while blindfolded in a closet and it's like, oh, shit. Now you have something to talk about, now you have something that you will actually want to watch about, right? That's that's a good story right there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. OK, OK. New thing, man. So as far as as far as you doing this, man, because I've I've watched you grow this platform, I think, for about two years. I want to say when I first came in contact with it, I want to say was maybe the Toby Lou interview at first like like brought you to my attention. What exactly are you looking to accomplish with kids? Are you trying to get out a more traditional network like a complex or do you see it going more so so towards artists or services type of thing? What's the general goal of the goal of kids take over is, you know, when I when I took matters into my own hands and created kids take over, my main thing was like, OK, if people don't want to give me an opportunity, you got to make yourself. It doesn't matter if you're if you're 40 or if you're 12, you know, like you can make these opportunities yourself. So my goal with it was, OK, I'm going to create this hip hop media outlet because that's what I'm super into right now. But I want to eventually be able to have this brand where I can do anything I want, any interest. If I want to go into sports, if I want to go into clothes, I have this brand to help me do that. So, you know, it's like I'm doing interviews right now, which I always want to do. But eventually, you know, I do want to make clothes like that's been a dream of mine. I do want to go into sports. I want to interview like young NBA players. And I really just want to I really just want to help a young artist, man, because people don't realize like how much potential you have at a young age and how much tools you have at a young age. Like you have everything you need. So I want people to make their own kids take over. I want I want them to watch my content and just be like, All right, now that like pick me back up and I can be an artist. I can be a producer and I don't need to have like some huge cosign. So I think that's ultimately the goal of it. Yeah, that's dope, man. And you're going to be right there ground level with these artists coming up because that's what I like about your platform is like I said, yeah, you're going for big artists, but even the big artists you go for still in a sense, like rising artists, right? Like NLE Chop is big, but he's still not solidified yet. So you're still the platform where maybe some of these other bigger outlets, man, I have the same interest in his story as you would have to your audience or the thing that you want to ask. But you're still going to kind of like push this side. I always thought that was dope, man. I like what I'm seeing so far, man. Thank you, man. Thank you. And I think I always end the interviews. I try to ask questions at least two or three that will like help a young artist that's watching, you know, because it's great for NLE Chop to talk about his new album, right? But people want to hear like, OK, what was NLE Chop doing when he just wasn't getting buzzed? Like when people weren't fucking with him, like what strategies did he use to get more followers or, you know, just just things like that stuff like a young artist would really want to watch. Has there been any particular gem that you picked up for these artists that just like stuck out or something that like, yo, such as I said, there's like every artist needs to know they should. Damn, that's so rough. Like there's probably so many things. I'm kind of drawing a blank, but let me think. Man, off the top of my head, I probably can't remember this because there's so many like gems. Yeah. Yeah, I get it. Going back to I think all the interviews I've seen that Toby Lou interviews probably the one where it felt like, you know, Toby really doesn't care where he's dropping out again right now. Oh, right. I do remember from Toby Lou interview, what he was saying was, you know, he was just talking about how he drove Uber at the time and like he didn't, like, you know, like you had you got to do what you got to do. If it seems like I could be moralizing job or whatever, it doesn't matter. You got to do what you got to do to, you know, get your career going. So I think I really respected Toby said the Uber thing because a lot of artists are just like sometimes they're scared to know if they need money. They're like, oh, I can't work a job, you know, it's like not sometimes you got to go work, be a fry cook at McDonald's and just make some money. You've got to get some recording time and then move like now you have an opportunity. Yeah, but it's like the money got to come somewhere. We know we know you have to spend the money. The money got to come somewhere. We're not we're not sure. I think that was the part that got me too. I was like, oh, Toby, which I also actually I think is one of the cooler things of ours coming up today where used to be so secretive about, you know, all this artist has a job. This is what this artist is going to grow. But ours they are like, no, bro, this is what I did. I was working, you know, 20 hours a week in McDonald's stacking my check up, going to live shows every week and I did this and I was saying that's cool. Like it seems like the hardest on afraid to share the game and others know what it did to get there. Facts, if I was an if I was an upcoming artist or if I got a chance to do an interview, I would definitely mention those things because people can relate to that. You know, people relate to working at McDonald's because they probably get it themselves. Yeah, yeah, that's right, man. That's a good point, man. Let me think, man. I think I think it might be everything I want to touch on, man. Like I said, I just kind of I want to just chop it up with somebody that's working things now from a new media standpoint because we have a lot of people who watch this channel who want to do some of the same things that you're doing. You know, they want to be able to reach out to an artist they like their respect and do an interview. So is that any piece of advice? Any, you know, any words of wisdom that you would give to the aspiring media personality or the aspiring journalist? The aspiring journalist. I would say number one thing I would say is if people aren't giving you opportunities, just do it on your own, man. You YouTube is there, Instagram is there. You can literally do all the stuff on your own. If no one's giving you an internship and let's say let's say you don't want to make your own media outlet and you want to be a journalist for someone, you don't. If no one's giving you an internship, forget that. Use like Instagram as your internship, you know, do these like one-off interviews with people and then show complex like, hey, I did this by myself. You know, I just hustled and I got an interview with Zay Token or I got an interview with like Lil Key or whatever. That will be your resume. So I would say just like use the internet to your advantage, man, because it's free. Well, so, okay, I thought it was it would just make me think of something. So how much of your week is pitching to other outlets? Like, is that something you are like proactively doing? Or do you let clips flow to these outlets and then just run with them? Or are you like pitching stories yourself to these networks or are you pitching clips or are you pitching parts of interviews to these outlets? Well, I have an intern now who does that. Like she basically gets clips, cuts them up and then sends them to outlets. But to be honest with you, when the moment I'm doing an interview, I already kind of know I'm like, oh, shoot, like, this is going to get picked up by Felicia Report. You know, like, I already know because because before the interview, I specifically look at what are these media outlets writing about? You know, what what are the things that are that are getting the writers like attracted to these stories? And for example, I did an interview with Jamal Crawford, right? He's not the biggest NBA player, anything pretty small, if anything. But Kawhi Leonard and the Raptors, I think at that point where they just won the championship. And I was like, I know for a fact, if I asked him about Kawhi Leonard, right, he's going to give me some sort of story, some sort of answer. This is going to get on the report. And that's exactly what happened. Like as soon as I did the interview, I told my intern, I'm like, yo, send this, like, DM this to Felicia Report. I don't care how big they are, they're going to respond. And that's what happened, like Felicia Report responded to our DM right away and sort of like every other hip hop. I mean, basketball. I already know when I'm doing the interview that it's going to get a block. That's fine, but it's all right. It's that muscle, man. You change yourself and they'll like, all right, this is what I need to do to spark something like this is what I've been talking about. This is what I used to say.

[ "Engineering Mechanics", "Civil Engineering", "IIT Bombay", "IITB", "Mechanical Vibrations", "Sauvik Banerjee" ]	2016-05-26T10:07:32	2024-03-04T14:16:18	3,159	5R26imQvOv4	So, I think there are couple of questions that we try to answer what we will do, we will try to look at a small tutorial problem that we have. So, if we can just try to solve that in 5 minutes time. So, please take your time to you know just solve the first problem of the tutorial. So, let us just try to work on that and I need that you know answer from you. So, we are in now problem number 1 of the tutorial again since we have discussed the spring mass system we want to find out what is the time period natural frequency of vibration and the velocity and acceleration for the problem given. So, can you get the equivalent stiffness of the entire system what is the equivalent spring constant yes some remote centers are actually giving the correct answer. Once we know the spring constant then we should be able to get the time period and the frequency. So, f and capital T f and tau yes the spring constant is going to be equivalent of the total system is 4.11 10 to the power 3 that will be the Newton per meter or 4.11 kilo Newton per meter is the k and from that we can get the frequency. Frequency is 2.77 hertz and time period is 0.364 I think there is a perfect answer from what is this center 1140 1140 that answer is absolutely correct. So, we all hope that this is now clear. Now, I am going to display the solution clearly as such it is a very simple problem two springs are in series and one is in parallel. So, if we look at the solution click carefully. So, ultimately these two spring as we know they are in series. So, therefore, what happens if you give it a delta then this will have some delta 1 this will have some delta 2. So, based on that logic we can say that equivalent spring constant of spring 1 and 2 that is k 1 k 2 divided by k 1 plus k 2 that is for spring 1 and 2. Now, once the spring you know 1 and 2 has been mapped with a equivalent constant k prime. Now, you have k prime and k 3 now they are in parallel connection we see here. So, therefore, such to be in a displacement will be same now here. So, therefore, what is happening that we know that k equivalent must be equals to k prime plus k 3. So, ultimately we look at here that k equals to k prime plus k 3. So, we are going to get this. So, equivalent k can be determined that is equals to 4.11 kilo Newton per meter and from that we can get the time period tau n and f n that is the frequency. So, we have now kind of gone through a very simple problem then we are going to discuss other type of systems. So, simple spring mass system we have studied that was the first part. Now, we are going to generalize this concept and all I am saying that now look we can actually represent it a system by an static equivalent component and static equivalent system and we can still do sum of force you know equals to 0 and sum of moment equals to 0. Now, so far you know when we are looking at it the mass was just a particle. Now, suppose we are now going to study for you know bars. So, suppose you have bars like this which is again idealized from you know some kind of frame structures let us say. So, we have already studied this. Now, what is this? This is rotational inertia. So, rotational inertia of a bar about its own mass center that we have already studied. So, mass moment of inertia about its mass center we know it is going to be m L square over 12 where m is the total mass remember capital M is the total mass. So, suppose now let us say I have pin somewhere in the body and body is rotating counter clockwise again very small oscillation. So, that theta is coming into play. So, how do I show the rotational inertia force? Simply going to be like this in a clockwise fashion which is actually opposing the motion of the bar. So, therefore, we can say that this should be capital M L square by 12 theta double dot. So, we will need this you know when the body is rotating about its mass center. So, then we can actually have the inertia force which is the rotational inertia force in this way. Similarly, let us look at this now. Suppose the body is trying to rotate about a 0.0 a which is not its mass center. So, what happens? Now, remember D'Alembert's principle always state that we take the effect of the inertia forces specially the translational inertia force that should be at the mass center. So, we must have the translator inertia force as well as rotational inertia force. So, remember as per the D'Alembert's principle we have to now localize this translational inertia force and the rotational inertia force about its mass center. Therefore, how to do this problem? Remember what it means that if I have a bar like this and it is rotating by an amount theta. So, it is oscillating about its equilibrium configuration then I can decompose this problem into two parts. One is pure translation and another is the rotation about its own mass center. So, therefore the essential meaning is that I have this rigid body that rigid body has a lumped mass that lumped mass is at the center. So, what that lumped mass will essentially do? It will perform two type of motion. One is the pure translation and another one is the rotation about its own axis. So, therefore how do we determine the pure translation? Remember the degree of freedom is theta only one degree of freedom is there and the all know other degree of freedom the y let us say if I use y as a translational degrees of freedom then that is always related to the theta. So, this is called the generalized degree of freedom where I know the shape as it rotates. So, I can either interpret it in terms of translational degrees of freedom or rotational degrees of freedom. So, the shape is always going to be known to me shape of the deformation in this case shape of the rotation. So, now therefore inertia forces effect if I want to take I will have in this case what is translation now that translation is given by y. So, what is y? y is equals to L by 2 multiplied by theta. So, that is the translational motion right displacement. Therefore, what is the inertia? If the displacement is L by 2 theta then the acceleration translational acceleration will be L by 2 theta double dot right. So, basically you have mass times acceleration that is the translational inertia force and it has to be shown downward. Similarly, what is my rotational inertia about the mass center that is I already know from the previous you know study that it is going to be capital M L square by 12 right that is my mass moment of inertia about it is center multiplied by the alpha alpha is the angular acceleration. So, that is theta double dot ok. So, therefore when I represent this body although it is rotating about this point I will take the effect as per the D'Alembert's principle of the inertia forces at its mass center. So, at its mass center remember if the body is rotating about a I have two effects one is the translational and one is the rotational. So, I have a translational inertia force and I have a rotational inertia force. Now, what happens remember in this problem if I really take the moment about this point. So, now what is the equivalent system of this? The equivalent system can be interpreted by this what is given here right. So, this system and this system will be equivalent in terms of the rotational aspect right. So, what we can simply say that then how can I find out what is J A which is mass moment of inertia about A. So, let us go back to the very first lectures on equivalent system then we take the moment right. So, that will be the moment resultant about A. So, the moment resultant about A of this system will give me what J A theta double dot right. So, that is m L square by 12 theta double dot. So, that is this moment right here plus you have this force vertical force multiplied by the distance is L over 2. So, that is going to total is going to be m L square by 3 theta double dot. As we all know we have already studied what is the mass moment of inertia about A it is actually m L square over 3. So, therefore as we can see clearly if I am adopting D'Alembert's principle and I take the effect of inertia forces at the mass center I need not to worry about what is the mass moment of inertia about elsewhere or in turn what will happen that when I take the moment of these forces and set it to equals to 0 everything will come automatically. So, there is no parallel axis theorem is coming into play to get the mass moment of inertia about A. So, only thing is that I need to understand how the body is making the movement and from that movement I have to find out the inertia forces that are coming into the body at its mass center. Remember there may be many links. So, I can add one more link to here and I can try to study this problem. So, that will be our next level of discussions. So, let us look at this problem it is a idealized model again an actual model you see here. So, some beam it is pivoted here that means there is a hinge here and we have the spring here. Now, we are going to apply some kind of loading right here. So, ultimately it becomes a spring and mass system. Let us say I have also mass of this bar I can have a large mass at this tip and I do have springs. So, ultimately I am again it is representing this one by a spring mass system and I want to find out let us say you know we can do lot of stuff now because we have learnt it. So, natural frequency of vibration can we find out can we found out the period of vibration even you can go back to the you know let us say if we are looking at the free vibrations that means I displace the mass system and release it what kind of velocity acceleration I am expecting. Now, what is most critical to understand this as I said the first of all I have to understand that what is the static equilibrium configuration of this system. Where is my static equilibrium configuration? So, that means if we do include if we include the gravity effect first let us try to find out where is my static equilibrium configuration. So, I solve the problem statically. So, at the first part mass of this bar is ignored. So, there is no mass of this bar rigid bar, but we have only a large mass attached to this rigid bar. So, therefore, now the way to solve this problem will be is that first we must understand what is the displacement diagram. If I say the mass is displaced by delta s t then remember the spring you know how much the springs are stressed or compressed that can also be identified based on the concept of similar triangle. So, here I have only theta s t that is the static rotation that is connected to the static displacement of the tube mass. So, now let us look at what are my spring forces since I know the displacement. So, this spring is going to be compressed the right spring right. If this is under compression then what kind of force is going to come on to the bar as it is shown. So, force has to be directed upward. Similarly, for this spring the force has to be directed upward as well because this is going to be in tension. If it is under tension then I have to have outward right from the body and this is under compression. So, this is inward force on the body, but direction will be same in both cases. So, that is how we tell the students this is the clear free body diagram. Now, from the static take the moment about a 0. So, therefore, this is my equation right that is at equilibrium. Now, we for sure know what is the value of delta s t in terms of the mass and the springs constants. So, next thing would be as I said how about now if I displace the system from the static equilibrium configuration and let it oscillate about its own equilibrium configuration. So, what happens? So, next problem will be remember this is the static equilibrium configuration. So, from the static equilibrium configuration I am giving it a displacement x t. So, my degrees of freedom is here x t that is the displacement which is related to of course theta right here. So, it is a single degree of freedom, but it is generalized why it is generalized because x t that displacement is now connected to theta or in other words I can always predict its shape shape of deformation right. So, therefore, what is happening now you try to think of first I draw the displacement diagram. That means from the static equilibrium configuration I have clearly represented the displacement if this is x t this should be two third x t this should be one third x t. So, you can clearly understand that what is the stretching of the spring and what is the compression of the spring. So, therefore, now you come to the force. So, free body diagram of the forces what is the you know forces acting first of all look at the inertia force since the body is displaced I have taken x to be positive then the inertia force translational inertia force has to be downward. Remember this rigid bar is massless. So, inertia force is not coming from this bar only thing I am concerned about the tip mass that is coming into play. I have the weight of that tip mass the spring forces now how the spring forces look like look at the k 2. What happens to the k 2 from the static equilibrium configuration I go this much. So, ultimately k 2 if you look at it therefore, we can assume it to be in tension if I assume the displacement this way. So, spring force is downward similarly for this one although it is in compression the spring force has to be downward. So, direction of the spring forces will be always same. So, now what we do I am simply looking at now that is my static equivalent system at any instant of time x any instant of time t for a given displacement x remember again I repeat oscillations is small that is the major consideration we are doing. Therefore, this forces does not change its direction as the body oscillates about the equilibrium configuration. So, what happens under the small displacement assumption we can now get the equilibrium of this and as you can see everything is there ultimately what is the equation of motion m x double dot m is the mass of this that portion that mass attached to the that bar and we have the equivalent stiffness that is k 1 by 9 plus 4 k 2 by 9 x t equals to 0. What is most amazing and interesting is that there is no gravity term can you see this very unique there is no gravity term although we have considered the gravity effect. Remember this gravity effect is going to go away because we have already this part is already equals to 0 and that is coming from the static consideration. So, equation of motion for this particular problem when we are measuring from the static equilibrium configuration is again not entering into the equation of motion. If I do not measure the vibration from the static equilibrium configuration that mg will again come into play and we have to be extremely careful. So, it is always advisable that we measure the vibration from the static equilibrium configuration. So, the next is now once I know the k equivalent and the mass. So, therefore, what we can do we can get the time period of vibration and so on so forth. We can now solve a large class of problem as well for free vibrations. Now, let us assume this bar now has a mass distributed mass uniformly distributed mass is present on this rigid bar. Now, before we proceed into this another thing that is being given is that without you know doing this calculation if we would have ignored the gravity effect from the beginning. Suppose I ignore the gravity effect from the very beginning then problem is very very simple the problem is very very simple. If we do not have gravity then we need not to find out the static equilibrium configuration. We can assume the original configuration to be static equilibrium configuration and we can solve this problem. Therefore, you can see that in the force there is no mg because there is no gravity. So, we have assumed static equilibrium configuration itself as a original configuration. There is no displacement due to the gravity. So, therefore, again what we will end up to ultimately you can see that k 1 by 9 plus 4 k 2 by 9 is not that. So, ultimately what the point here is that if we are including the gravity if we do include the gravity we have to be careful and we have to follow these steps first I solve the static equilibrium configuration and from the static equilibrium configuration I vibrate the system right oscillate the system and I am going to get the equation of motion ok. Now, if I exclude gravity effect I need not to worry about the static equilibrium configuration. So, I can start from the original configuration I can solve the problem. Now, both cases you must get the same answer. Answer has to be same from the both cases that is the main point of discussions here. Now, remember in this problem gravity is not entering into the equation. However, you will be very surprised if I look at a pendulum or inverted pendulum problem gravity will automatically come into the equation of motion. So, now with a distributed mass let us say now my bar has a distributed mass what happens again remember we are ignoring the gravity effect. In other words we know for sure that if I measure the vibration from the static equilibrium configuration gravity will not enter the equation of motion. So, let us assume this is indeed my static equilibrium configuration because in this problem gravity is not going to play any role if we measure the vibration from equilibrium configuration. So, we will just bypass that therefore and what is shown here that as if we are ignoring the gravity effect. Now, only thing is that remember we discussed that we now have the inertia force of this bar as per the D R M bar's principle the inertia force has to be taken at its own mass center. So, from the displacement diagram the translational inertia force will be M L 2 theta double dot because M multiplied by translational acceleration which is L by 2 theta double dot and what is the rotational inertia force that is M L square by 2 L theta double dot. So, that is the mass moment of inertia multiplied by the angular acceleration. So, I will show this like that and I take the moment about A equals to 0 for equilibrium. So, ultimately what I am going to get remember these two term when you take the moment of the translational inertia force about this and this one right then only thing remember this capital L will be equals to 3 L. So, M L square over 3 that is capital L square over 3 we know that is the mass moment of inertia about A. So, when you are looking at you know moment of these two forces about that that will become this it has to be. So, moment due to these forces about A should be capital M which is the total mass of this bar capital L square or capital L is equals to 3 L divided by 3. So, in this way we will get the equation of motion in terms of the again tip mass displacement the tip mass displacement is a small x right. So, you can get the equation of motion. So, what is being changed compared to when we do not consider the mass here right when you ignore the mass of the bar the change is only here capital M by 3. So, that is coming into the equivalent mass now. So, equivalent mass becomes small m plus capital M by 3 where small m is the tip mass and capital M is the total mass of this bar. Remember I made an statement one can also use principle of virtual work to obtain the equation of motion. So, everything is connected what is not connected how do I do the virtual work by the way I leave it for the homework. If the system is at equilibrium then I will give it a small rotation delta theta and you do the virtual work done by these forces you will set it equals to 0 you will get the equation of motion it is as simple as that and you have learnt that for a single degree of freedom system virtual work does not give any advantage over the equilibrium equation because what happens ultimately what you are doing you are establishing a moment equation about this point right and in virtual work we are calculating the work done by these forces eventually in when we are calculating the work done which will be very equivalent if you take the moment about a equals to 0. So, from the virtual work we can show that same equation can be established ok. So, by definition of the virtual work let us move on to some other problem it has just you know typical exercises we are going to do now. So, derive the equation of motion of a rectangular block resting on a frictionless surface as shown for a small oscillations in a horizontal plane remember the reason as if you know you let us say you have some kind of disc just for the time being that disc is really rotating ok on a horizontal plane and the surface is frictionless. So, what will happen immediately we do not have gravity right the gravity will not your influence the solution on the plane right because we are talking about a planar motion which is on the horizontal plane. So, let us assume this is connected by spring and mass. So, we have the spring here we have the support this is the rectangular block. So, again how do I derive the equation of motion remember for the rectangular block we already know the mass moment of inertia about its own center what was that capital M a square plus b square divided by 12. So, now with that if we just do the displacement diagram how the displacement diagram will look like as you give it a small theta I have to look at the other displacement components right as you give it a theta remember the center of mass has also changed its position and the center of mass should have a vertical translation as well as a horizontal translation ok. So, therefore, now I can get the spring force spring force is K multiplied by b theta b theta is the small displacement ok. Now, what are my inertia forces it is all here look at it carefully firstly what I said let us assume there is a gamma and this gamma is nothing but mass per unit area if gamma is mass per unit area then gamma times a b is equals to total mass right. So, gamma times area is the total mass. So, let us try to look at this now. So, ultimately you have gamma a b that is always going to be the total mass M capital M. So, therefore, how do I look at the inertia forces now I have two components of translational inertia one has to be horizontal another has to be vertical because there is translational motion in both directions. So, I have shown that in one way it is a by 2 theta double dot right the other way it is b by 2 theta double dot. Similarly what is my rotational inertia capital M a square plus b square by 12 theta double dot ok. So, now all I have to do again sum of moment equals to 0 and you see if I do that definitely I am not going to be concerned about the reactions that are coming into play. So, I just do sum of moment about O equals to 0 and I can solve it. So, ultimately what you see now there is a bit of a problem this small m should be capital M actually there is no difference between small m and capital M. So, ultimately you get see what is this this is actually the mass moment of inertia about point O ok. So, therefore, I get this as my equation of motion in terms of the rotation theta. So, again as I said this is going to be you know very systematic approach that we are following as if we are taking the static equivalent system of a dynamic system and we are analyzing that ok by simply taking the moment equals to 0 moment resultant equals to 0. So, the equation of motion if we put all the numbers is going to be that then you can get the natural frequency of vibration you can get the time period of vibration. Now, we are going to come to the next problem before we take the t break. Let us just try to study this problem how it is posed what are the differential equation of motion about the static equilibrium configuration shown and the natural frequency of motion of body A for small motion of B C neglect the inertia effects from B C. So, we do not have let us say ignore the mass of this only mass that we have is at A. If this is the problem first we need to examine is that a single degree of freedom or multi degree of freedom system. However this does not have any inertia force and in a dynamic problem inertia force only you know comes through the mass that means degrees of freedom selection basis is the mass. Now here you do not have any mass here you have mass. So, that means this part has to be statically connected with this part. So, that this B C body has to be somehow statically connected with this part right here of that of this weight A. So, now if you look at it let us assume for the time being that it is 2 degree of freedom system. So, what we have essentially done I said there is a displacement x A here let us say of this mass and how about this there is a let us say rotation theta. So, that rotation will bring you know displacement here as x D and therefore displacement here as 2 x D. So, for the time being let us start the problem with 2 degree of freedom system and let us try to draw the free body diagram and see what happens what relationship exist is there any relationship that can exist between x A and x D ok. So, we will again try to you know deliver all the time what are the typical free body diagrams nothing else we are doing what are the free body diagrams ok. So, here as we see if this is displaced by x A then the spring force has to be k 1 x A right. Now what this spring will do spring k 2 spring k 2 will have x A minus x D. So, that will be tensile in nature, but still if we assume x A is greater than x D to start with to derive the equation of motion ok. Then we have again spring force that is acting downward on this body what is the inertia force since I have assume the motion upward inertia force has to be m A x A double dot ok. So, now you come to B C this bar what are the forces this spring is going to be stretched. So, this is under tension. So, on the body spring force downward this is under compression, but on the body it has to be in this direction right. So, ultimately what is happening now you have the equation of motion for mass A ok. So, for mass A it is already determined that is the equation of motion. Now what happens to this there is no inertia forces here. So, you can clearly see if I take a moment about point C right. Then what happens naturally we can see that x D and x A these two degrees of freedoms are statically correlated ok. So, you have a relationship between x D and x A therefore, what is the equation of motion of this mass. Now we can go back to that previous equation number 1 and once we substitute basically we are going to get this form. So, ultimately we started with a 2 degree of freedom system, but since the bar did not have a mass there was no inertia force therefore, we are able to correlate the degree of freedom of this bar with the degree of freedom of this mass small mass statically ok. And with that we are able to find out what is the natural frequency of vibration because we know now the equivalent stiffness clear. So, let us move on to another problem. So, here a rod A B is attached to hinge A here and two springs each of constant K what is being asked determine the value of K for which the period of small oscillation is A once again and B infinite. So, the here what is my objective I have to somehow find out the value of K such that time period of oscillation is very small and time period of oscillation is very large. Now what do I mean by time period of oscillation small or large? If the time period of oscillation is small that means body is or spring is more of a rigid right. That means I am expecting high number for spring constant K if the time period is very large that means it is oscillating very slow rate right the oscillation is very slow that means spring is very flexible. So, I am expecting a very low number for the K that is the whole issue here. So, the what is what does it mean by time period of oscillation infinite? What does it mean? That means once the body is actually disturbed it is not going to come back to its equilibrium configuration. So, it is a unstable equilibrium. So, for a given value of K right the body will not come back to its original configuration it is going to be very unstable system is that clear? And we have done that if you remember we have done the potential energy approach t equals to infinity time period equals to infinity omega becomes 0. So, if the time period of oscillation is very large what we are saying it is actually you know static problem it becoming omega equals to 0 as if no frequency and all we are trying to understand that in that static problem what is the value of K such that system is unstable that is all and now we go back to the potential energy approach to solve this problem at least this part this part can also be solved from the potential energy approach that is B that is time period of oscillation infinite what is my value of K and very interesting. Now in actual real life you know do not see this kind of problem, but you see in civil engineering application we have a continuous body. So, it is that of a water tank let us say it is a water tank it is a large tower it is a continuous system, but it can be modeled by saying that I have a mass on the top and body is oscillating about its equilibrium configuration. So, again you will see that in case of a you know civil engineering application you will have the spring how the spring is coming spring is determined by the this tower right what is the spring constant of this tower that can be calculated, but remember this will be not a rigid body now this is now a deformable body. Now we are not going to touch upon those type of problems. So, ultimately you can see if the system really oscillates depending on what kind of stiffness I have it can be highly unstable system and we are really trying to determine that given a mass what is that K for which it is highly unstable very very interesting problem as such and we are linking that with the potential energy approach as well. So, as long as let us say my equation of motion is concerned it is very very simple I disturb the system by theta this is my displacement diagram. So, for a small oscillation I have h theta right and this is you know what is this spring force was you know the displacement in the spring is d theta one spring will be under compression another spring will be under tension. So, if you look at the free body diagram of the forces we have K d theta. So, d is this distance do not forget and h is the total height d is the distance from the hinge to the spring and h is the total height that is the height of the mass from the hinge. So, I have inertia force now what is the inertia force h theta is the displacement therefore, acceleration is h multiplied by theta double dot that is my translation you know in acceleration. So, I have m h theta double dot here I have k d theta k d theta. So, I take the moment about a equals to 0 what is my equation of motion is going to be looking like this remember gravity is indeed in the equation of motion you cannot ignore the gravity in this case it has to be there it is a inverted pendulum gravity will always create a disturbing torque the disturbing torque of the gravity will be always in the first order of theta you cannot neglect that I cannot avoid the disturbing torque that is coming from the gravity. So, therefore, what is happening I get the circular natural frequency expression therefore, in the next part what is my tau that is my time period of vibration. So, that is for once again. So, I can calculate a value of k and time period infinity I can again calculate a value of k remember time period infinity means omega equals to 0 that means frequency equals to 0. So, through that I can again get a value of k there are two case and you can clearly see the difference if time period is infinity oscillation is really large it is moving at a very slow you know oscillation system is very very flexible. So, you are having a very flexible spring whereas, here you have a stiff spring you can see that difference. So, as you increase the you know stiffness you are going to go to the more and more rigid system. So, it is vibrating very fast rate time period is reducing. So, frequency is increasing. So, now can we solve this by potential energy approach as I said if time period of oscillation is infinite then I become I am really trying to look it and look into a problem where frequency is 0 that means it is a static equivalent and I am trying to find out at which value of k the system is unstable. So, now here is the main issue. So, how do I again I am going back to the minimum potential energy principle what is the potential energy of this system remember dynamic is already gone because omega equals to 0 I am trying to understand that situation. So, ultimately potential energy of the mass what is that mg h cosine theta this will be also h. So, h cosine theta that is the distance right. So, we have the potential energy of the body from this datum. So, datum will be my hinge. So, that is mg h cosine theta what is the potential energy of the spring is stretched by d theta. So, half k d theta square 2 times half k d theta square. So, for equilibrium what has to happen d v d theta must be 0 does that give theta equals to 0 as an equilibrium configuration yes theta equals to 0 for this indeed implies that theta equals to 0 is an equilibrium configuration question is whether that is stable or unstable at which value of k it will be stable and which value of k it will be unstable. So, we take the higher order of derivative of the potential energy d 2 v d theta 2. So, we just say for stability d 2 v d theta 2 equals to greater than 0 at theta equals to 0 degree d 2 v d theta 2 must be greater than 0 for stability to prevail. So, therefore, we get the d 2 v d theta 2 we said greater than 0 which implies that k must be greater than this number mg h by 2 d square. That means to make it stable k must be greater than 763 which is the same answer as before. So, when k is equals to 763 that means time period is actually infinite it is becoming unstable. Any value that is less than equals to 763 will make the system unstable and we do not discuss it further is that clear. Now, you can see how engineering mechanics is connected a simple principle of potential energy is connected to a dynamic problem in a very nice way. So, what we are going to do now we are going to take a short tree break. We are going to come back and discuss some issues as it appears and then we are again going to solve a very simple you know tutorial problems based on this as logic that we have given.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5R26imQvOv4", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

That's just that's just what it is now. I Hope everyone's doing fan. Good evening. Good morning. Good afternoon Depending on where you are. We have a small we have a small that just Well, just have a great time anyway. We always have great time So I'll do quick introductions even though there's only three of us I'll take a while. No, so I'm Sarah I'm a weekie tree team member and then we have Mindy our overall week tree challenge coordinator, and then we have Devon no Lee who is our guest star that we're gonna be wrapping up this evening and we're all super excited We are also kicking off the week for Nathan Dylan Goodwin He's not he can't join us today because he's in a different time zone. So he's sleeping but We will still introduce him and his week will be started after we'll probably right now anyway So if you do have any questions while we're going through everything, please leave them in the chat And we'll answer and we'll we'll ask and answer those questions And then unless there's anything else I guess we can Talk about well first. Hold on get it. I'm getting ahead of myself for those of you who are maybe new to watching this We let me tell you a little bit about weekie tree and the weekie tree challenge. So Weekie tree is a community of genealogists who are working together on a single family tree In other words, we collaborate to grow an accurate global tree that connects us all and most Markably, it's free The weekie tree challenges our year-long event as part of our year of Accuracy where each week a team of weekie tree years takes on a genealogy a genealogy guest stars tree and Collaborates to make it more accurate and complete than it is anywhere else Our goal is to improve our accuracy on weekie tree add more family connections and Make more friends. So that is that So now We can delve in to revealing all of the goodies that we have found for the week She was chatting away That's okay I'm gonna give a little bit of information first on how we score this for our participants Of course, we mostly do it for the pleasure and the fun, but we are humans So a little bit of you know competition out there just gets the keeps the juices going now. We'll have our Little points which are one point apiece for adding any direct nuclear Relative or direct ancestor that is not a brick wall so siblings children spouses and then those brick wall ancestors are 10 points apiece Yeah, those are the fun ones to get and actually the other ones add up faster But you know, I guess it depends on how many brick walls you break down And can we go ahead and see yes, let's go to our beautiful Collaboration right and while we're doing this these are the ways that we collaborate now on the left you see our spreadsheet We list everybody that's participating that week and they hopefully are putting the profile They're working on because when you get 30 40 50 people working on one set of branches It can get pretty crowded and people start bumping into each other So that's kind of how we tell people. Hey, I'm working on this one right now on the right. You see the g2g post That's our genealogist a genealogist forum. We put a post out there each week for Devon's week We haven't broke down into the great-grandparents and they can put down discoveries questions what they're working on and Hopefully they're brick walls They don't always remember that they get excited and they don't always remember to post them So the third way we collaborate and you know, I don't know how we can do it without a bit discord And this is our live chat, of course, and we are a global site So we have people all over the world different time zones There's almost always somebody in there and there's always people chatting and it's great because you can cheer each other on You can ask somebody to look at a profile or a source for you get a second set of eyes You can get a translation. You can say hey, does somebody have time to look up this obituary all kinds of things in discord And yes, we do have a few that are like Chris and a little silly in there sometimes But you know keeps everybody going so gotta have that live chat And I'm looking at one person asking about the thumb signs, and I'm like, yes, I have an answer Now This is our MVP and actually I have to say we had a sudden upset and this has not been updated Oh, no, when I said people were working on your branches still I'm gonna people were working on your branches still So as of an hour ago your MVP most valuable player and that means he got the most total points That's we count the bounty points any other points to get we put it all together That's who got the most points was Dieter leave it ends and he's one of our German experts. Yay Yeah, second was Chris Ferriero third was anonymous sharky Fourth was Robin Baker and fifth was Anne Browning nice to see some different names up in the rotation But I do have to say that Robin hopped on up there into second place Oh She she she went up to Chris She was showing up higher than that on mine. Do you have the bounty point showing? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I Just refresh it. So yeah, she was not in second place Oh She's been busy and now you have to wait for a few minutes and see how she was busy and what she I know we're all a tease and Then let's go ahead and look at the the totals on those stats since we're there The first thing we're looking at of course. There is that total points. I was talking about Dieter has a hundred and fifty two Total for our team that counted was four hundred and seventy seven Created ancestors there were sixty six direct created ancestors for you And then the created relative are the nuclear families only so we're not counting cousins uncles, whatever 271 nuclear relatives Added on well, thank you everybody. Yeah, and then bounty points your bounty points that are a hundred and forty So that means fourteen brick walls broken down Okay, I'm hoping it's a guy's door Not not telling yet Profiles edited and you know if you see this down and you're kind of looking at the bottom of it there's some people that don't have total points and that's because there's even more people than this that actually worked on your branches now we have people that do things like go off and work on free space pages or You know, they just write some narrative up for somebody like I said they'll go look up Obituaries and stuff like that and so those people aren't getting points But there's still it shows up as a contribution as an edit most of them do so eight hundred and fifty one Unique profiles edited and then for them. Yeah total edit So that's every time somebody went in changed a date added some sources did anything to a profile Three thousand and five hundred in one week All right. Oh Go wiki trios. That doesn't count all the extra stuff Yeah, I didn't bring you I didn't bring my pie Weren't we gonna do key lime pie I was gonna do like I'll have to do a smore, but I don't That's all I have in the house Anyway, I'm a fire nut. Let's go now we have our first. Are you ready? okay Okay, and here it is and No, we don't make any great progress on that geyser line and poor leader. He worked really hard He found out a bunch of bunch of really cool interesting information about other people that migrated over So you'll still have plenty of reading to do and new information to play with But but no brick walls on that line. That's okay On the Hmm am I out of order? Oh on the Evelyn peak line Okay, this went out to Hugh von night. He is your 13th great-grandfather Okay, it was a Welshman apparently of low birth He fought the last judicial duel Sanctioned by the court of chivalry in front of King Henry the seven in 1492 and he held several roles in the English Royal Court during his service to the crown I'm two of our wiki-triers Lander Ford and I think that's supposed to be Leandra and Susan officer I've been working really hard on that profile And I'd like to say you know like where I talked about how you see people that don't have those points We had people like Greg Clark. He's the one that does our fan charts and whatnot I'm he actually worked on your branches this week and there's just so many people I couldn't listen behind the scenes that just they get really focused in and they get so excited and they just work Really hard all week on what they're getting so I think you know even if they didn't take brick walls down We worked a lot on the accuracy Which it's our year for accuracy and those brick walls are just the icing on the cake But I do really appreciate all of them. They all amaze me look they have a really he has a really nice biography, too That's nice for sure I didn't know I went to Welsh If John tiner is gonna be upset that it's not Irish, but you know, hey, I have no control of that Wow, okay, so that's at the peak line, which is my George's wife's family line right, okay, right And we had several on this as matter of fact We have a lot on this line mostly because the townlies come off of this and So Catherine Foster Townling she was already established on wiki tree once the right connections were made you gain 15 new Ancestors on that connection. So that was pretty exciting and I don't even know who Catherine Foster Townley is I'm guessing she's up That effingham Townley wine I'm guessing okay Cool I guess you gotta gotta go on to the branch and figure out who they are I just I just spent last year trying to connect John Townley from Cincinnati, Ohio to The effingham Townley and so once I could lock into that that would be great. So Yeah And Then Effingham your fifth-grade grandfather and his tombstone we found interesting It says farewell. Yee friends whose tender care has long engaged my love your fond embrace I now exchange for better friends above Humor And then on this line also they did Proven error they said unfortunately that John Elijah peak now he died in 1695 So he's another one that's not going to be fresh on your brain. He's way out there He is not the son of John peak or grandson of his parents William peak He's also not the son of a different John there looks like there was a lot of John peaks Not John peaks in your house Patterson. So that family was really conflated on family search Okay, and without name being so common. We didn't actually find the right one, but we were able to disprove several appearance, so that was okay Almost as important. I'm sure some people aren't family search are gonna be mad But we don't care about family search care about Well, we don't care about mad We do care about Yes, we use it a lot. Yes, and then some of Richard Townley's details had also been Completed and they were very carefully considered and untangled by a team member It was also discovered that Richard's mother was not Latisse shuttle worse Okay tree has the Townley family all the way back to Richard Townley born in 1313 Yeah, and they're they're well documented and there's a must-read page on Wikipedia that involves them Really awesome, you know and the one of the things that you see on like a tree all four warning because you'll see everything We worked out to you where we connected is very well proven and And then as you go back to some of those profiles It'll be like from the earlier days of Wikipedia. They're quite as filled out, you know But then you get back a little bit further and you'll see where the projects take over and this is where they go back and make Sure those really early ancestors that have thousands and thousands of descendants Look like how you saw your your William guy, you know the profiles look beautiful. So sure It was next one is exciting I think This was your white sackfield line, so I don't know how much you did a lot on that line Devin, but we had a small crowd of researchers They were just so excited about this now Richard Townley's mother was Joan white Townley And she presented a really stubborn brick wall and her parents were discovered to be William white Who was born before 1593 and Mary sackfield white? Mary had no less illustrious ancestry two project members tracked her line back through at least two members of Parliament your royalty here one of them was Christopher sackfield born around 1509 now his mother was Margaret Boland sackville. So You know of the Boland's that in the United States They learn about it, but in England they do William Boland who was knighted by Richard the third These lines added more than a hundred ancestors to your branches. I mean it was just crazy So if you look on the left there, you know That's like where it starts out and not quite filled in but those couple of lines every time you clicked You just kept finding these new pages full of new ancestors and it leads back to that's William Boland there in the in the middle. It really fun stuff to read cool And actually one of the bowlands is actually a Profile of the week this week a ghost. Yes She was clean and she's a ghost so interesting ancestors a ghosty queen Well, I think I chose my shirt. Well, I mean you're finding what I have my shirt it says keep calm and watch full dark So you found some English ancestors that's very Okay Yeah, more townlies, I'm telling you we just kept finding them Some more early ancestors so you have Walter de Bailey who was born in 1238 he married a lady with the name of America and Family search line broadly agrees with wiki tree, but we take it back a little bit further than they do so in that line actually goes back to 1120 and Yeah, there's just a lot of people to discover on the way search Robert Sherburne Born about 1215 also broadly agrees with family search another brick Somebody that was already on wiki tree Alice Blackburn Sherburne Born about 1280 her mother was Margaret Holland Benastra and her father Thurston Holland that line goes back to Matthew Holland before 1181 in Lancashire England and then before that the ancestry is disputed, but yeah, how fun is it to have all those ancestors that are that? Yeah, that is exciting Good job Did you see that how the what they said about that you chose your ancestors you chose your family very well, I Was born into the family, so I'm not sure I did much choosing so That there's something more than Andy's line Yes, I know about this. I'm starting that is my grandma and Helen's line So right and then after finding the marriage for him a team member discovered that his father was Johann Zemstein, so that was a brick wall down. Yeah, there did it takes you back one more. He's another Johannes Zemstein and then There was a correction also made to Johann Peter Chanel born 1629 His mother was Katharina Priam Chanel and that once knew and then oh This was just kind of fun We added something on this line about one of the comforts and I know we haven't rolled over into the comfort line yet The son of your seventh great-grandfather John comfort paid the survey fees for his neighbor Frederick E He was granted this land in 1795 and they had given him, you know told him how much he owed in taxes and in 1806 so 11 years later. He still owed these taxes and your you know great great great great uncle Robert Who's in his early 70s went and paid his taxes for him. So we just thought you know, that's that's kind of neat You always look at these profiles of people and you trying kind of get an idea of who they are as people and You know just fun to find that those little bits out that show. Yeah, they were really they really cared about people And you guys changed the name of a Filipino Malta. We've never seen the Maria in front of her name before She's always just been but she's awesome because her boys went to Canada before her and her husband did and they built a log cabin and And had four sides, but no windows and no roof and she arrives and she's tired and she says Their family legend says, how am I supposed to get in and then boys are like we just tossed you over the side Yeah Now I don't know how truthful that is because it's a family legend but that barn or that log cabin was there until they built then the The one of the other houses and then they turned that wood into the barn that's still there today. So it's I love this. I'm science in Canada. They're fun to research Neat Now we get some comfortable land The comfort slain smooth cider Snyder's and some science There's kind of a little I wouldn't say endogenous, but they were definitely intertwined. Good job, Greg. Yep. Yeah On that. Oh Any color-cutting did he color-coat that there? Yeah, yeah, he took the time to go ahead and put where they all actually Made it. I like I put like little numbers before that's what we cool that he put the color code great Awesome job. We love great, but we love everybody, but you know Taking a bit to love so go back. Yeah, it's quite a large image. Good job Yeah, this free space page and just so you know the free space pages don't actually count towards all the edits that are counted on that Scoring sheet so just so much more that has gone into your week then was actually counted Greg would you like to elaborate about the well, I guess you'd have to read it. I don't know about the fence dispute That's great You between Robert Comfort and neighbor Nathan Joss Johnson regarding trespass dispute over fence slide Fence line and 10 acres of wheat. Oh There's further evidence and it has links to the micro So the actual source and there's character witnesses Wow Payment for 200 acres. Yeah, so what look this is a pretty cool free space page So now and I haven't really started working on the comforts all that much we have a book that was printed in 1993 and it's just a bunch of group sheets, but this is amazing. So thank you Walk through all this stuff again You'll get a link to all of these to some of our ladies also did some different free space pages. So That's nice. Give me some fun with stuff to look through Okay, so Greg used to just keep smiling. I'm so proud of you. Thank you and anybody else who worked on that. That's awesome We're proud of everybody. Yes Now my comforts is my UEL line my United Empire loyalist line I'm not sure about everybody else. I don't think so because the Snyder's are Swedish That's I'm trying to German and I'm so bad. I don't know where the lanes and roots are from off the top of my head So we'll have to see Lizzie was just mentioning how that maybe we could be sisters with our same energy and we're also wearing the same color so Well, I have to say I told her she was wearing the wrong color last week And so subliminally I put it in her mind that she needed to wear maroon this week And she put it on without thinking and then I saw it and I switched my search because I was And I wanted to be maroon She was in the back of my head all day. Yes. Oh my gosh. This is exciting. Good. Okay. What? Okay, I got more lines This line Johan Antoni is Klein. Mm-hmm. This was a correction His parents were Conrad Klein the son of Baltazar Klein and Eva cropping Klein the daughter of Hans Peter cropping So, you know, if we'd had more time, maybe it would have been able to take the clients back a little bit further But still that gave you five newly ancestors. So nice. That's exciting Thank you for all the Germans And it was Dieter and some stuff in a language that I probably German Okay, the pickles I know the pickles I was sucked in a dark hole by the pickles How much luck you had and I do and I do want to ask if you don't mind since you know that what line so well How you came up with a connection for Joseph and Gabriel? that actually is before me and I haven't brought I done the pickles because Jane fickle married Charles Gordon and Gerald Gordon's father is always in dispute And then it just goes back one more generation to the tan hill the fickle town hill And that's kind of where I stopped because it's home. Any people mess around with the pickles But I think I think Jane's like ants or knees or something I don't have it in front of me when I see it. I know it, but I think she married a Brown so there's there's there's multiple pickles marrying in together And I haven't been able to prove 100% that it all makes sense but I have a theory that The multiple pixels one flange into the Gordon the brown and you know, whatever You know, I we tried and just could not find that that connection Oh, and although on the last ditch effort trying to look through the wills now the little books that would have been When get around the time Gabriel died are like the only one's not index And it's only a 600 it's only a 649 page book. So, you know, we got through like a hundred pages of it Maybe we'll keep reading more But in the meantime trying to look at the different locations in any record we possibly could of course You know, you see on that map Go back to it Sarah. Oh, sorry. That's okay. Real quick Benjamin and William and Joseph fickle and Joseph, of course is your direct line And I just think it's too much You know of a coincidence that they're not related They would have to be with them all purchasing their land so close together and I think you know, if Benjamin's not Like a sibling he would be a you know a close cousin And there weren't a whole lot of fickles in the area So it's not like they're overrun and you know, you have no idea But there's there's still more that can be tracked on on that But yeah, we got a we got a lot of good information I Yeah, go ahead That's some we got some good biographies for you to read Yes, a couple of those on the space page for you, you know, so you can know which ones to go click I know you wanted to read a couple different writing styles And I'm hoping that our team members will still maybe think of a profile and throw it on there because we'd like to see more Now in looking at the stuff for Joseph fickle and actually I don't know if you'd seen it There was an article about his grandson Silas fickle That was very interesting and it did say starting looking into that that Joseph was of Dutch descent is how they put it and his wife of scotch Descent, okay, so we didn't work on his wife's line. That's supposed to be Scottish what Scottish Irish possibly Not sure now Silas and his father hit was George. So Joseph's son George Okay, both served in the Union side during the Civil War and then Silas was kind of interesting He was quite a man. He wound up being shot not too far into the war right above the knee They didn't amputation of his lower leg They had complications from that they did a further amputation. He only wound up with like five inches below the hip To get married he had a daughter with his wife. They adopted a son He took in a granddaughter and helped raise her for seven years. He was a shoemaker by trade I mean, he's just a really interesting good man, you know, and when he retired he moved to Probably closer to town, you know From where he was and just all about people had said, you know, he him and his wife were just really great people They were just really upstanding citizens of the town and they just really appreciated him So that was just kind of cool to see too. Yeah, for sure And I did learn that fickle with doing the reading fickle with an L E at the end is more of the English spelling and fickle with EL at the end is the German spelling now I know there were like five five variations of how you could spell fickle But the early ones that did come in did spell it with the EL. They had the German Spelling for it Nice nice, okay the Hankinsen I know nothing about the Hankinsen fire And Joseph B. Hankinsen One of our team members was researching on this and just found it interesting and said it I actually took the time to draw out the plots of what which part of his land went to which child instead of you Know just writing it out the boring way in the in the well. That's actually drawn out. So Joseph's five children were Henry William Simeon Margaret and Susanna and they actually waited Henry was not of age He actually made them wait until Henry was of age to split the property So it wasn't just that Henry didn't get his land until then nobody got their land until Yeah, and then they they all got it once he became of age and then we had Joshua Woodruff Hankinsen. He was your second great-grandfather now He was in a gun club and they had written they had written a newspaper article and claim the scores were bad that week because of wait for it defective pigeons There's a pigeon No, of course, you know, we're all focused on genealogy So we're thinking very literally and somebody's like, how do you have a defective pigeon? Well, it's not because the clay pigeons they use of course are those discs, you know So no birds were injured in the making of this story at all but it was it was a fun little bit of information and then Mary Ellen Hankinsen, I don't know if you knew this either I'm sure you knew about the big Hankinsen family reunion that happened in 1900 and one of our team members did actually do a space page on that. She's like, no, I don't look at that line I honestly because see this was my grandmother's biological father's line and Who the guy was I was like, oh, I'm kind of done, but I'm excited to go read you guys gave me something to read so One of yeah, one of their children and she says probably so the team member But if you look at the dates on the article Compared to the daughter Mary Ellen Hankinsen's death records everything is the same on it She was a patient in the insane asylum From Likin County and she crawled through the bar the wind bars on a window five stories up Jump down to one a one-story roof hit that and Unfortunately died from that and she was the only child that did not make it to that big reunion in 1900 and you know, they kind of phrased it as an unfortunate accident But there it turns out there were several people that had done that at that asylum and for some reason they Just couldn't get him to reinforce the bars better and on her death record It did say suicide so that that part was sad that she had such a family around her and and something like that occurred Yeah Good job We also did have and you'll have to look back through the profiles because I do not have a slide on it But if you're looking for any of the morbidly interesting stuff for kids or whoever to look at you have two different people for some reason in your Ancestor's lines that stepped in front of trains or fell in front of trains. So yeah Isn't surprising because my Direct ancestor Henry Joseph Geisler. He died by a trolley car accident. He was drunk So there were generations of alcoholism in the Geisler line And then in late breaking news this happened less than an hour of going a lot This is new to me Adam Deets's probate was found and so and it says it says in there and he was listed as Mary Mary Deets that married Cornelius Gulick Her father was thought to be William But it actually lists her in there as a child of his and if you see at the top there It's Cornelius Gulick and wife which they list down below that. It's his daughter Mary And her husband, she's the wife of Cornelius Gulick. So in other words Dad's an atom So I think he gained five or six kids the last time I looked right before I came online Seven yeah, somebody was actively working on that. So that's part of the reason those points were going up Yeah, she was still adding to that but that was pretty pretty exciting fine. I love finding probate They're just so awesome. I read one while we were doing the research for you and And I and I wish it, you know, sometimes you just wish you're like, I wish this was one of my ancestors wills They're just fun some of them are really fun and there was one in in York County and The gentleman left Very specific things to his wife. So he left one fourth of all the liquor. He had made and half of this hard cider that he had made and The fourth of the garden that specifically was the one that was well-dunged and fertilized I was cracking up when I was reading that and then he said he must have known his death was gonna be imminent Because he was like and the apple slices when they're fully dried once they're dried you get those. I was like, wow This is a specific will Wow Military profiles and there of course we found a lot more than this These were a few that we had taken the time to link and you'll see them on the space page William Townsend who was in the Civil War Now of course George fickle I talked about with his son Silas. They were both in the Civil War on the Union side And he and Tana Hill. So there's one of your Tana Hills There's a private in the second regiment of Cotskere's Ohio militia in the war of 1812 And then so that's not a direct ancestor That's like a son or a cousin uncle kind of thing I'd have to look I don't see the relationship on here. So I would have to look We had several and the Revolutionary War So William Peake and that was your fifth great-grandfather Fought in the Revolutionary War. Yay. Okay, that must have been Chris And these were direct William Hankinsons sixth great-grandfather fought in the Revolutionary War And then we're going out. Well one step Further out each time John Roy your seventh great-grandfather He was a patriot in the Revolutionary War by virtue of the service in the provincial Congress of New Jersey Now see if you were a daughter's of the American Revolution, that would be a high Possibly but something tells me that's up the The dna line. There's no actual record, but the peak one. I think that might be a paper trail So I'm gonna go look at that one for sure Do you have a lot to look at? I know I said I would love to have a dar Oh comfort tour of h2o Oh, they couldn't prove oh They try there was so much talk they went back and forth all week on that isomar and they just could not make the connections They wanted to make so I don't know if the records aren't there or you know, sometimes connections just aren't meant to be I'm not sure And I know what upper candidate is that's Ontario I know my geography Oh Do we so that that that's all we got unless there was any other last minute changes that That was all that we have found for you I mean, there's probably a lot more, you know, we're gonna they're gonna send you everything But this was the big discoveries Very very Good Well, yeah, I'm just thoroughly impressed I don't want to say that I have a favorite But I'm really excited about all the stuff in Canada because I just don't have that access to those documents right now Or I haven't delved into them enough So that is extremely exciting and then The possibility of an American American revolutionary direct investor with paper trail Wow, that would be great because I've been struggling for that Yeah, so Hankinson and Roy are DAR ancestors, but unfortunately I have no paper trail from my um Grandmother so she was adopted out and no paper ever connected her to the Hankinsons But DNA connects her to the Hankinsons. So I can't use that one unfortunately and The longs that um, Louise is from she does have a DAR ancestor up there But they won't let me do that because I know that she's been adopted in so like Then, you know, you you should find out who your local chapter Her registrar is for the DAR or one of them because they are actually starting to consider some DNA evidence Okay, and that's new that's that's within the last year. That's been recent. So Exciting I wanted to be able to have dual dual citizenship, you know, the united empire loyalist DAR So Chris has a question. What was the proof of william peaks parents on family search? They couldn't find proof You've got to ask me to go back to my tree. I don't know what's at the top of my head But you're asking these things off the top of my head. Okay peak peak peak peak peak peak Hey, I don't know my ancestors off the top of my head. So Only so back so many generations. Do I know them off the top of my head? Okay, so The answer is I'm not sure Um, primarily I've been focusing on townlies towns and guys slurred off us carls or gross mocks and zump steins So somebody put the the proof. I don't know what the proof is Oh, you don't have a date for Helen and Robert. You just have to send me an email. I have it There's a great group here and of course I have their work the other marriage date But they've started allowing proof arguments Okay, so I have to report back. What'll be exciting Well, wow, I I don't know what else to say but wow, I mean I'm not someone who doesn't talk We we've taken I don't I forgot what's the phrase we've I don't know. I was gonna say some major speechless. You there we go It's his name. It's late It's it's speechless Yeah, that's exciting I have to tell you that Devon it really was just such a pleasure for us to be able to go through your branches You know and everybody just had they really did have fun with it I mean people worked hard, but they really did have fun with it. So good I hope everybody's family's fun. I mean, you know, it's nice to know that I have something other than a a professor No fan and a drunk on my tree, but I do have this fight. So You have patriots you have a knight. I mean Some ruptured some problematic pigeons and you have a a fence dispute That is exciting because I know that the johnson's and the comforts and the zamsteins all intermix Right and so to see that that they're having a land dispute. I mean, I'm sure it happens, but I actually have all that documentation in the court records the Yeah, because A family chart just makes everybody look like they get along But then when you get all of this extra stuff, I just I mean, I still have a living Cousin in Ontario. Unfortunately her her brothers have died, but I can't wait to say hey I found some more stuff. I mean because it was her mom that Started my mom on the path of doing genealogy research and so we've always wanted to research our Canadian line Um, so anyway, it's exciting people here asking a year just to work off the register Do it just do it. Just do it. Just do it. It's exciting. Oh So we have any Go ahead I'm just gonna say if anybody has any last-minute questions or comments or debon. Do you have any last-minute questions or comments before? We My only comment is now that you've found so many ancestors people are gonna be able to see how's debon related to me And I'll be able to say oh, that's a valid line instead of after time going uh, no, I don't think so I know that's bogus after that person. So That's exciting. We'll have to have a chat where people ever tell me how we're all related Yeah, we had one member and and he had uh, he was trying to work on his hankinson lines And build him out and he knew he was in that same area and there were all those of course hankinsons and kramers and whatnot In ohio and he's like, I just don't understand. I'm not making this connection And I'm building all my branches out and somebody else said well, you know But we don't have all of debon's built out yet I mean the more you add the more you're going to find those connections with people And so I thought well, I'm just going to take a look at his branches and see what he's doing I mean great way work by the way. Donald doing great And I got in there and I'm looking at him and I went wait a minute musking gum ohio I know that that's for stylus uh fickle wound up at he wound up in musking gum so I took and I compared him to Donald's hankinson and they were 17th cousins once removed. So You know, one of the things about us all talking to each other. You're like, wait a minute. I recognize that town So we found a connection that that we didn't know was going to be there exciting exciting exciting, but I can't wait to find out where the maria comes from for filipino's Moulter that's going to be exciting to look at that And I know that they had just brought on the german lutheran records But I didn't know how to read them enough to take it back. So that's exciting to be able to see that All right, and even notes We'll send them to So now we will go to We'll introduce our next guest though. He like I said before he can't be with us because he is sleeping right now with us Nathan dylan goodwin is our Basically, we've already started working on his tree there. I know people are already going at it So we'll go ahead and introduce him and we have some he answered his interview questions So we'll give a all that goodness stuff. Oh my goodness that didn't work. Okay. So let's go back So Devin he has always had a passion for writing if you you some of you might be familiar with him He has a master's degree in creative writing And his first book was haystings at war published in 2005 And he is the off he is an he's the author of the forensic genealogist series And he's currently working on the next installment in the series. I've heard a lot of good things about his books I want to get some and read them, but I haven't actually got them yet He is a member of the society of authors the guild of one name studies the society of genealogists Sussex family history group kent family history society Norfolk family history society haystings and rother family history society a lot of societies So that is Nathan So we will go ahead and I don't know maybe if you want me to we swap I ask a question you answer or we'll just take our terms Giving what the the question and the answer is so you can go ahead and do the first one. Okay, so The first question what got what got Nathan interested in genealogy? So quoting him he says I started doing doing genealogy when I was about 12 years old I first became interested in my maternal grandmother's maiden name den gate as the family had lived locally to me in haystings For several generations and prior to that in the villages not too far away My name was one of those wonderful people who kept everything relating to the family and who wrote on the backs of photographs So I used to sit down and copy out the family tree matching names to photographs But generally not having a clue what I was doing From about 14 I started to interview elderly relatives, but unfortunately asked the wrong questions Focusing on names and dates rather than information that couldn't be gleaned from records that got me hooked and I haven't looked back Okay, and for the second question I usually ask who's your favorite ancestor and that can be hard to answer And Nathan said it was tricky to think of just a singular ancestor as his favorite He said I hope the rest won't be offended though when I choose my great great-grandmother Louisa roaks The vast majority as you will find of my family came from southern England and were white and involved in various laboring agriculture agricultural work So louisa who was of mixed race and hailed from the tiny atlantic island of san alina stands out for me She married a soldier stationed on the island in 1887 and according to her marriage certificate She was 17 years old In fact, she was actually just 15 years old Soon after the marriage her and his great great-grandfather Samuel Angus Ellingham left the island and settled in bedford sure England I've been able to trace south asian and east african dna to her Which very likely came from slavery as the east india company procured their slaves from that area Taking them to work on san alina Very cool So the next one Any interesting stories to share that you find out about your family? And he says well one of my great great great-grandfathers was called sylas thomas He was one of those white agricultural types that I just mentioned But he was a little bit naughty In 1863 he was working on a farm in his home village of mountfield east sussex One another laborer discovered a small horde of middle objects and ranks Believing them to have been made of brass He showed the middle to sylas who paid him five shillings and six pence about five pounds about 15 pounds today for it Taking into his brother-in-law steven willett who was a blacksmith at some point assuming he didn't already know sylas discovered that the items were actually made of gold and sold them to a london merchant for 529 pounds which is more than 25 000 pounds today Unfortunately For sylas the police had some other pieces from the horde and began to launch an investigation Eventually arresting sylas and steven the gold was found had been more than 2000 years old And much to my embarrassment as a historian. They had it all melted down. Sorry history Their trial was quite sensational for the time and the pair were subsequently sent to lose goal Did I say that right goal? I guess it's a I have an idea with an open-ended sentence According to a newspaper article in 1864 A piano teacher named mrs. Kirby wrote to queen victoria on the men's behalf asking for clemency if the story is to be believed then the Then the queen asked her private secretary to have them and released They were led out of prison having served 11 months and to the best of my knowledge stayed out of trouble In fact, sylas thomas went to become an outstanding member of the hastening salvation army. That was pretty cool And devin you thought you had some bad boys Back in your journey Yeah I don't think I have bad boys. I just think I have your run of the mill kind of boys who get in a little bit of trouble a little bit just a little bit Just a little My next question was when did you first discover wiki tree? And he said it was probably about two or three years ago He said I run the den gate one named study dna project at ft dna And the website has helped me with several branches of the den gate family I found photographs that don't exist anywhere else online Ooh The next question which is an important question. What are your current brick walls? And he says he has four main ones where I've actively tried to research them several times But where I've gotten where I get nowhere fast One of them is the lines that settled on st. Helena. Luisa's brooks ancestors The island has no indigenous population. It only became settled from the 1600s mainly from england Unfortunately, there aren't too many off island records. The names are roakes everton and car. Are you guys making notes? Okay, next one My second great-grandfather James Cole various census entries offer confusing birth dates and locations his name appears variously as George James Cole James George Cole or just James Cole The third one the smiths we have a lot of smith researchers. So maybe they can help My second great-grandfather was George Augustus smith from the Battersea area of Surrey now London I've chased it up a false line already as there were two people with exactly this name born close together in time and location Family legend has it that he only had one sister Lizzie who lost her leg at age five and who married Who married but her husband died young. I'm stuck And then his last one My main brick wall and the one which one which given my job writing about professional genealogists is the most embarrassing My goodwin line My fourth great-grandfather was called Thomas Goodwin. He was born around the 1780s But there are so many Thomas Goodwins in the west minister Middlesex area that I can't pin down which one he is I've tried using DNA But it's on the very edge of being possible and so far I've only been able to confirm links between me and some of his other children The parishes in this area now greater London were huge which doesn't help So those are his brick walls guys. Yeah, and I did put that out in a discord room for those of you that are watching both The final question was what do you hope to see him participating in the wiki tree challenge? And Nathan says well, obviously any of those brick walls being knocked down would be amazing Other than that any lines that can be developed would be great So he really just is excited to see what we can find and expand his tree I did go ahead and have the captain ask about the photographs And he definitely said we can use the photographs that he has on ancestry. So I think it's exciting So we will have him on next Wednesday. I believe we're doing three p.m We're doing a five p.m Five p.m eastern times a little earlier. So that'll be nine p.m. GMT A lot better for our england people Yes, so it'll be earlier in the day Uh Or later, I don't I don't know. I guess it depends where you are, but it's going to be a different time So keep an eye out for that. We will post it on wiki tree youtube facebook with the correct time and then Saturday would you have our live cast this weekend? We have k night on to talk about bio check app You know, I think it's really exciting So if you're if you're kind of daunted by some of the apps it kind of ties into wiki tree plus So please come on watch k has a presentation and she'll ask she'll answer questions. So it's gonna be really great and Besides that, thank you everyone by Wait, wait, wait. Oh, no. Yes, devon has devon also wants to share something Right. So june 5th Um, we are having a virtual conference Featuring lisa leahson to talk about newspaper research Joe morally to talk about um union and confederate civil war pension And then my miles meyer to talk about how to cross the prom from the u.s Or canada over into germany if you have those kind of researchers So if you go to family hits euthanatics.com, you'll see a big graphic at the top It you cannot attend live because you're um Taking a break because it's a wiki tree or break. That's it is um recorded for 30 days You need to participate, but the early bird discount ends this saturday And you have to register by june 4th if you want to participate. So we close the doors on june 4th at 11 o'clock p.m my time Which is new mexico time. But anyway, I hope you guys will participate It's always a really good fun event and I can't thank you guys enough for everything you did And um, it was one thing so grega asked about um, why can't I find your marriage date for your grandparents? That's because they eloped Yeah, and I forgot to put on anywhere that I have personal knowledge from my grandparents telling me You know all that other stuff. There really isn't a document They eloped to gretna green in kentucky. So yeah, that's why Eloping happens so Yeah, both of my grandparents eloped my brother eloped Actually, do you have any kind of certificate at all or just so they ran away and they just Just they ran away and then there's a big big big family story of the chaos that caused Because then her older sister eloped and then they got divorced and then she went to ontario married her sweetheart That's her sister or older sister is max's younger sister eloped and yeah Lots of family drama Yes So um, apparently alcohol getting hit by trains or falling off trains And eloping is my family tradition Sounds fun Anyway, I just thought I'd share that That's that's fun though. So Thank you everyone. Thank you devin so much for letting us work on your tree. You know, we're gonna have such a great time Thank you everyone who's watching. Thank you. Mindy We this wouldn't be possible without mindy and thank everybody who's participated And don't forget you can subscribe to youtube or like us on facebook like us on youtube So you can know when we're going live again. Check us out on weekytree.com And with that we will say goodbye until next time I hope everyone has a wonderful evening day and we loved you Goodbye everyone	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5r2LGtCUClg", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Brought to you by VMware. Cisco, EMC, HP, and Nutanix. Now, here are your hosts, John Furrier and Dave Vellante. Okay, welcome back everyone. Here live in San Francisco, California, this is theCUBE, our flagship program. We go out to the events, we extract the civil noise, I'm John Furrier. Here's my co-host Dave Vellante, our next guest, Michael. Hey, VMware Alliance Manager for HP. Welcome to theCUBE. Thank you. Hot topic is VVOLS. So, obviously storage at the center of all the action in VMware, cloud, mobile, social, sub-defined data center, hybrid cloud, et cetera, et cetera. Moving up the stack. Application-centric theme is certainly here. So, give us the 101 of VVOLS. What is it? Why is it important? What's the key conversation? Sure, and maybe let's start so. So, VMware Virtual Volumes, maybe we kind of start with the motivation behind this new technology. It's been one that's been a buzz. I mean, it's been kind of a technology preview since, I think, 2011 at VMworld was the first time they showed it off. So, it's been this technology that's been a long time in the Cummings. And the basis is what VMware found is that their original architecture for storage, based on these large data storage, these large loans from the storage system, they worked great. It allowed them to consolidate a lot of VMs who have a lot of VM entities on a few storage resources. But the challenge with that is they realized as they kept going and looked at more management and policy-based management, is that there was a disconnect between the language storage spoke, which was at that loan level, and what VMware wanted to speak, which is really at that VM-centric level. So, with VVOLS, what they've done is they've built an architecture from the ground up really to fix that disconnect and provide a one-to-one mapping between the VMware world where that talks VMs and the storage system, which talks loans. So, you'll have, every VM will now have its own volume on the storage system. Okay, so, a lot of people watching will say, oh, I get it. A lot of people go, what the heck is Michael talking about? So, LUN stands for logical unit number. Okay, that doesn't mean anything to have the people out there. So, let's unpack that and really do a one-to-one. So, talk about the storage view of the world versus the VM view of the world and how VVOLS is bringing that together. So, what's a LUN, what's a volume? Let's get down to that level and explain to people. Let's dig down there. So, let's start at the storage, and the way we work at the storage is again, we talk about these volumes or logical entities. So, if you think of your laptop, you have a C drive. You put everything on the C drive, that's your volume of your computer. Some people may have two hard drives, you have a C drive and a D drive. That same concept applies to enterprise storage. We have these entities, these logical entities, where we kind of put all the storage behind it. With large enterprise storage systems, we combine a lot of disks together and create these logical units, and that's where all the data goes. Talking about virtualization with VMware. So, let me just stop you. So, physically, the arrays might be distributed, but you can create a logical unit out of those distributed assets so you don't have to move data. Correct. Right? It's because moving data is a pain in the neck and it's slow and it's expensive. Okay, great. So, that's good. I like C drive, I get it. Okay, good. Why is that a problem? Why do I need something better than that? So, the challenge is again, so we, the storage, specifically at the block level, so we're talking about kind of different protocols of storage, your filers and your block storage. From our standpoint, we know kind of what bits are where, but when you have an operating system, a hypervisor on top of that, that file system knows where everything is. We, the storage layer, all we know is all we see are zeros and ones, essentially. So, it's decrypting that zero and one. Zero and one is what the file system does. And that's where historically, the virtual machine file system from VMware kind of sat on that large entity from the storage system and controlled, kind of understood where everything went. From that level, they put multiple VMs in this one unit and they put them all over the place. We at the storage level don't know what they were putting where. So, if you as a user have, let's say your Microsoft Exchange application and let's say your Oracle application running, then we don't know what bits, kind of what blocks, what pieces of our storage go with which application. Okay, and that's a problem because it creates overhead labor cost, essentially, to try to figure that out and performance tune or move data. And the big problem is, there's not so much data that we don't know that, that's fine, the storage layer provides a lot of advanced data service. So, we do have a lot of capabilities at the storage level. So, things like replication, snapshots, you want to create a copy of your data. Right. So, from our standpoint now, from the VMware standpoint, we want to be able to copy on a per VM basis. But, unfortunately, you're locked into a LUN and so you got to take those services and say, okay, these services apply to this logical use. That's the unit basket of things. But I want that service with that application and I want to drive quality of service. I can't do that without a lot of heavy lifting. Yep, exactly. I mean, the other way we describe it is kind of this big basket of VMs or basket of eggs. And in today's world, if you wanted to paint an egg, you have to paint all the eggs the same color. But let's say you want to paint the eggs different colors. Right, I want one green, one blue, one red for, you know, one white for each of my kids. Exactly, exactly. You know, try to be fair. Okay, great. So, VVOLs essentially will allow you to expose those storage services so that they can be consumed at a virtual machine level. So that then you can align the services with the virtual machine and create quality of service and maybe charge forward of your service provider or an internal service provider. And the result is going to be a lot greater simplicity for my IT operations and better service for my customers. Definitely. That's the bottom line, right? Okay, that's good. Thank you for that description. Why is it taking so long? That's a great question. It has been in the works for a while. I think fundamentally it's completely kind of re-architecting that the storage system just proved to be, I mean, it's a big challenge. Not only that, but VMware does a great job. They have a number of storage partners and everybody approaches storage a little differently. So kind of the original plan of, hey, let's kind of have this one way of doing things. They realize, no, maybe HP3 far does it one way. Storage vendor B does it a little differently. There can't be kind of a one fit, kind of one fit. So there had to be a lot of customizations that I think went into it. And then also, as that VMware stack has gotten more advanced, they realized that vSphere is now kind of creating that fundamental infrastructure of their software-fine data center and user computing cloud. There's a lot of pieces within the VMware stack and now touches and had to make sure it was ready for that. So this is a big win for a block storage provider. So good news for you guys, three par and other parts of your portfolio and others, because generally VMware, as you utilize NFS, as the sort of default, right? So it's, so talk about that a little bit. So does this, I guess my question is, does this level the playing field between block devices and say NAS devices being equal, sort of on an equal playing field? The shorter answer is yes. Historically, the discussion between block and file has been a big discussion with VMware. They created their file system to run on block storage. So that was the first storage they supported. But then as as filers emerge, they realized that they wanted to be able to support that storage architecture. And because Vmware is based on files, that the filer could actually see the individual VMs. They could actually do that decoding we talked about. Like they could pull those eggs out of the basket individually in the past. So when it came to technology like replication, they could do that on a pervy and base it easier than the block storage. Even though fiber channel block storage still the dominant use for vSphere. Now with vVolves, it definitely levels that field, that playing field. VMFS goes out the window, both NFS block will now live on the same storage architecture. So all those advantages kind of go out the window. So we'll all have the same ability to see things on a pervy and basis and at that same level of granularity. Now, you remember, you remember well, I'm sure of VAI and VASA in the last three or four or five years, I guess, let's see. It's been probably four years now. Maybe three or four years with the storage integration wars. Let's call it discussions. It's been a better term. But the issue was that you had to get an SDK from VMware, which they didn't necessarily give to everybody because they had the resources to support that. But anyway, the cartel got it. You know, HP, EMC, NetApp, IBM, the big guys, Dell, a few others. 3PAR actually got it early on. Which was interesting. You guys were a small company, but you got in there. The camel's nose was under that tent somehow. Which I think speaks to the architecture. It's affinity with VMware. But anyway, there was a lot of work being done on integration with VMware APIs. So are we now moving to a sort of a new battleground? I'll call it a new integration battleground where VVol interaction is the new fundamental way to do things? Yeah, that's a great question. VVol's inherently is a framework. I mean, it's this new storage platform that the storage vendors can integrate. It's not a solution. It's not like VA where once you did it, you're done. I mean, once you support the different scuzzy commands, kind of different commands of VA, you're done. Check mark, let's move on. With VVol, this is this fundamental layer where now we can, as a storage vendor, provide all of our unique capabilities through this layer. And those show up in VMware storage policy based management. These policies that they've introduced to control storage. And that will be this ongoing ability to, as storage vendors, kind of innovate, create new features from our side, like our dedupe capabilities. And all the capabilities we've announced recently will now be able to have those shine through this VVol's layer and show up right in vCenter when you're creating VMs and choosing your storage. So there's differentiation is what you're saying. So in other words, the differentiation with VAI was, of course, in the array itself and how things were done. But you're saying it was binary. Once you supported that capability, you had it, checkbox, okay, done. It sounds like this is different. So while it may level the playing field between block and file, are you arguing that it actually creates differentiation between block array companies? I definitely think it has the opportunity to create that differentiation. Well, how so? Let's unpack that. Yeah, again, those, you'll now be able to create these policies which will be based on all the capabilities of storage. And every storage vendor has different capabilities. So from the free part, let's use an example. We have our ASIC that's built in, that's inside the box that provides a lot of our advanced services. D-duplication will be in line in our ASIC. We do things like zero detect to allow you to keep an efficient, thin system. So to kind of pull out zeros and keep your volumes efficient. Well, actually, we're going to be providing that zero detect as one of these capabilities to VMware. And so as when you as a vSphere admin, as a system admin, if you're creating a VM, you can now choose a policy like, hey, I want to make sure this VM has zero detect. Like I want to make sure it remains as efficient as a possible over time. And anytime zeros are written, it gets pulled out. That will be visible by the system admin to vSphere admin. If three-par is the only vendor, for example, that has that capability, then that selection will automatically go to three-par if you have multiple storage in your system. So at this point, both storage admins and now vSphere admin admins, when they'll be able to see kind of all these capabilities and choose what their underlying storage does. So I'm going to build a portfolio of services if I'm a sysadmin or a VM admin based upon the underlying infrastructure and the services that they provide to me. So I'm going to pick and choose. And I might even choose to offer one over the other or maybe I'll have different classes of service depending upon the quality of the implementation. Yeah. And the one thing that we haven't touched on too much is VVOLS also makes all the storage provisioning simpler. That happens automatically behind the scenes. So when you create a VM and choose to apply it to VVOLS, all the, basically the storage work, kind of the setup, basically formatting your C drive, going back to the laptop example, kind of installing this new hard drive. All that provisioning happens automatically. So the storage admin no longer has to provision these big baskets, these big data stores anymore. It just happens seamlessly behind the scenes with the integration we've done. So the vSphere admin will now actually be, when they create a VM, it will also be provisioning storage and doing kind of storage tasks even though they don't know it. So what's, from a VMware perspective, where are we? So it's sort of 2011, I think it was like it showed a little leg. Wow. VVOLS, it's coming. And then yesterday Pat talked about VVOLS is being part of vSAN 2.0 maybe, right? So, but in beta, I mean, it's still a long way to go, it feels like. Let me get the party line. I don't want to speak for VMware. Currently VVOLS is available in the vSphere beta. So if you're a vSphere beta user today, you can run vSphere, it'll have VVOLS in there. If you're underlying a ray that you have and that they announced three storage vendors are on the beta site today, HP3par being one of those, you can use VVOLS today and it's available. You can start playing around with it in your lab. Only three vendors. Three vendors are available, only three vendors today are available. Who are the three vendors? HP3par, and then Dell and NetApp. HP3par, Dell and NetApp. Yes. No EMC. No EMC today. Interesting. Okay. I thought the deck was stacked for EMC. A lot of people think that. Yeah. All right, we'll have to dig into that a little later. All right, well, that's great. I mean, it's interesting. Three par, like I said, is always, even before the HP acquisition, three par was kind of in the club. We did a good job of leveraging our strong, kind of, I mean, service providers, kind of that core cloud customers at the time that VMware was also going after. So we had some very vocal joint customers that helped make sure we were in the door and did a good job. We were the first with VASA, one of the first with VAI. Well, we were here when the first Dell bid came down, John, you remember that? Yeah, that was five years ago. VMware 2010, we were sitting at the desk and boy, things were scrambling. They were all running. Was it 2010 or was it 2011? 2010. Was it 2010? 2010, remember? That was right, 2010. Wow. You've been- Also, a compelling drop right after. Well, that was the prediction, right? When Dell lost out to HP. Bridesmaid. Thanks for sharing the data on- Bridesmaid, come on. That's good, Bridesmaid. You're still good. The compelling was cool. Hey, at least you're at the party. Not looking on the outside. So, VVALS is big. Thanks for sharing the data. Obviously, automation DevOps, this is where the future's going. You know, eliminating all these complexities, manual, provisioning, all that stuff's going to go away. Appreciate it, Michael. This is theCUBE. You're watching live in San Francisco, here at VMworld. Three days of wall-to-wall coverage. We're in the midst of day two, 50 year. We'll be right back after this short break.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rGJounCIiA", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

My schedule is tough like so I stream at night I try to for your new booties anywhere from like 8 to 10 p.m. We start You know in a perfect world I get done at 2 but sometimes like 4 I sleep a little bit I wake up at 8 to watch my son Right I watch the Bay. He's a two-year-old now. I watch him till he goes to bed He goes to nap at like 1 30 now take and then I take my second sleep I'm a two sleep a day type of guy I do like two three four-hour sleeps a day. No, I played basketball. That's all I was never like a gym head type of person But I played more basketball for real So it's like what like it's hard to find time to do shit if I want to keep working and I feel like this Content grind bro if he doesn't do like that like if he if he didn't do that like three-hour nap in the middle Of the day are being shambles boys Are we serious? Swat oh, let's go Cromartie You got to have a real light feather touch to stop and go in this game You have to you have to from from that broken tackle all the way into the two run stops and then we get a pick six That's that's how you win football right boys dog what are like what's up boys? I Swear to God I cannot block this like I swear everybody was open and I was just locked into playmaker See, I'm not I don't know that these guys have like three three five that can play like cover three cloud on outside. I Haven't like realized that that's like actually a thing probably Like that's just 14 nothing right there It's 14 nothing the easiest 14 nothing I'll ever have but it goes through his hands Like I just you know why cuz I possession caught that's why because I possession caught the shit I got you got aggressive catch everything in this game I swear that never happened in the beginning of the game all the patches They put just made the ball bounce off your head bounce through your hands like yeah That's the worst part I put my red zone thread in to make sure he catches that in the red zone and it goes through his hands I know it happens to like but what am I supposed to play differently? You know what I mean? Like what am I supposed to do all right? Let's grow up man. Come on. Let's put the training wheels away Nope man milk man milk man Bro, we're in safe man. Like how does that ever an option on red zone threat? I need that caught That's like Brady just cannot make that bro, dude. I don't know why he can't throw that slant I have no idea why he can't throw that slant. No, I did why he can't throw that slant I just got like bro. He just oh sales that every time Football two for eight two for nine love. I love this game dude. I love it second favorite NFL team I don't really I don't really give a Think the Kelsey thing is cool like the Kelsey brothers. I think that's cool. Love Andy Reed. My homes is the man Bro, yeah, if them damn linemen would have blocked somebody would have been in business right there. I swear to God Like if the chiefs didn't have like my home's wife and his brother, they'd be like the coolest team in the league, right? I feel like that My home's brother and his wife kind of like even them out a little bit Right like I played a short pass for field goal right there like five seconds I played hard flats both sides man up shade up I put my linebacker in a yellow though I should have put him in a deep blue but I was thinking maybe you can snap those slant and call time out So I kept the yellow in the middle field rather than the deep blue I mean, that would have been cool If like I had somebody click onto but both my guys literally tackled that guy in the air like what are we doing, right? I Couldn't click on nobody it was just helpless I really started the thing like this route can be good in the red zone here My god, let me free form that for a touchdown. Yeah, let me free form that for a touchdown. Come on What am I asking too much? That's why you can't get rid of red zone threat boys Totties Bolivius to life behind you. I do that. I really do man. Oh, I just passly like are we That happens so much now. It's disgusting. I'll bet like dude I don't even know like what I can do about that Highball it like everything else in this game God underneath it's just wide I got a high ball that one too. I just knew if I high ball that one I would have got knocked out by the guy behind me. I didn't free form that one I just regular past lead. I don't be mad when it'd be like a free form that I know I can't do You know like one of them jobs quick snap so bad right now. So I'm nasty right now I'm getting like I'm just like so slow right now Fourth and 16. Let's play cover three stupid great blocking boys Yep. Oh my god, yo scrambling is absolutely cooked It's absolutely irrelevant scrambling with the football you get just shedded so fast when you hit close to that line of scrimmage Oh, oh, yeah, once I got my field close remotely of a close remotely of a close	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rBlPcpG9yA", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }

Crypt setup is utility used to conveniently set up disk encryption based on the DM Crypt kernel module. So this is the tool most commonly used because it's popular across all distributions, it's been around for a long time and it's very solid, it's very trusted, it's very fast and it's for Linux full disk encryption. And full disk encryption is incredibly important if you care about the data that is on your system and you care that it doesn't wander off somewhere it shouldn't and have someone else have access to it. Now this does not protect you against something happening to your computer as far as when it's unlocked. So encryption is one of those tools that it's meant to lock up your data at rest. That's an important concept to remember that it won't really protect you from a lot of other attacks but it will protect you from the physical access to your device while it's off if you've properly implemented this. Now, important parts of implementing this. When you install your Linux distro whether it's Debian based, Red Hat based or any of the many, many derivatives this is pretty much one of the options of all the popular distributions to fully encrypt not the home drive encryption. It works for that too but you want to fully encrypt your drive. Now why would you do this? As I said, if someone for example has wandered off with my laptop my laptop has a lot of things in there which those things include my SSH keys which allow access to some of my servers and whatever other information I may have put on there. That being said, the best way to protect against this is having a Luxe encrypted partition. So if they were to take the drive out and someone was to try to examine the data on there it would be well encrypted and very difficult to figure out. Now, you could you brute force it? Not easily, it can be done. Obviously if you're just replacing you're just protecting all this with a password so if your password is password one, two, three it's protected until someone types in those set of characters and decrypts it. So it's important that you set a good password. What is also important is that you remember the password you set because I've had people contact me going hey, I lost access to my server what's the easiest way to get around Luxe? I'm like restore from backup. There's not an easy way. That being said, always make sure you have a backup because it does make some people nervous encrypting others drives because there is that higher risk that not only could you lose something from a hardware failure now you have an extra layer of risk because you could have a memory failure a real memory failure of your own memory and forget the password. People have done that. They leave a machine off for a long time. So make sure you put it in a physical safe put it somewhere, keep it in your head whichever your methodology is for doing that but that's an important aspect to the Luxe encryption is it is really good and being good doesn't just keep people you don't want out it can keep you out as well. Okay, so we're gonna start with something simple this is a 16 gig flash drive I have plugged in it's formatted to the EXT-4 Linux file system not encrypted. So that means any data I put on there could easily be read by any Linux machine without any encryption. And this is just a disk utility built into a bunch of base distributions this is particularly pop OS. So nothing you really have to do here to get encryption set up in terms of command line or anything like that. It's pretty easy. So this is what it looks like on encrypted and we're just gonna go ahead and format partition. ENCRIPTED what is called encrypted 16 type internal for extent four password Luxe. Now a couple of things the Luxe encryption is not well supported on windows there is an old project to try to get it on there but on top of that it's formatting at EXT-4 which is also not supported on windows. Those two things are gonna make a challenge if you want this to be interoperable with windows. This is focused only on Linux. Goes outside the scope of this talk to talk about encrypting on windows. So we're gonna go next and wants to have a password. Now I'm gonna show the password. I don't know why it thinks $123 sign is good for password at least it does know password 123 is weak. So it won't even give you the option to click next until you have a decent password please use a decent password because as strong as the encryption is is only good as the password that you use to encrypt it. So an easy password defeats easily strong encryption. Let's go ahead and next format and it's going to automatically create the file system and create the encrypted partition all in one step. All right now here's the drive now that it has Luxe encryption on it. This is where it may be a little bit confusing to look at it looks like there's two partitions on the drive 16 gig each but in fact there is only one. Now the unlock right here shows that it is unlocked so you can see unlocked and then we can mount it right here. So we're gonna go ahead and stop this and we're going to lock it. And this is what the drive looks like locked. Now the way Luxe works because it's working at the kernel level it essentially wraps it through the kernel and creates a new device. So when it's not unlocked it does not create that extra device and what I mean is right here is dev SDC. So that is the name assigned to the thumb drive that we put in. And when we unlock it we put our fancy password 123 and unlock it we get to see what's inside of that Luxe container. Now it creates the kernel does a device map to works like a normal device unlocked. Now this is how it gets around having all of your applications have to understand anything about encryption. It's treated as just another drive. It just isn't mounted at SDC anymore. The encryption is mounted at dev SDC and it's mapped to the unlocked right here. And like I said, this is what makes Luxe very interesting and very easy to manage because you don't have to have every application be aware because the kernel is aware and taking care of it for you once it's unlocked. And then we can treat this and right by default using this utility it creates just a single partition right here. So it's just one encrypted EXT4 on here. So pretty simple, pretty easy to manage and anything you do on here is gonna be encrypted and that same password, if you plug this into any other Linux just show that has Luxe in it, which is like I said, pretty much all of them has been around for since 2004 in the kernel. So it's easily read on other Linux instances with the same password. So it's a great secure way to put data onto thumb drives. So let's now show you what it looks like from the operating system level. And I set up an encrypted Debian system to kind of give you an idea. Now I did this with full disk encryption based on the install. So when you do the install, I chose to install a Debian server with full encryption right from the big get go. I'm gonna show you how that looks. So I created this in a virtual machine. This is XCPNG with, in case you're not familiar, I have other videos on this. I log into it because it's already booted and we're just gonna restart it. And I'll show you what the boot process looks like on an encrypted drive that's in a VM. Now the good and bad of doing this, great for security, great if someone ever were to try to take one of my backups of this particular VM, they would not be able to boot it without the password because when it boots up, it loads the kernel because it needs at least the kernel to load so it can stream the Lux encryption and unencrypted. And this is the same way if you do a full distro install, it does the same thing. It's gonna have a password when it boots. I've seen this as easy when it's a laptop. Difficult if you're in a virtual server environment because you have to get console access to do this. Beyond the scope of this talk, there are ways to have it download a key file from a certain location to unencrypted itself. Those are other methodologies that can be done. Like I said, that's maybe a later video if there's enough interest in this. So now it's booted, we typed in the password, it finished the boot. So let's go in SSH into it. All right, we are now logged into that particular machine. Now this is how it looks on the other side when you're logged in. The boot device was XVDA and XVDA1 is the boot partition which contains the Linux kernel. So that's the part that starts that is unencrypted after that. It's XVDA5 and XVDA5 maps to this right here, dev map or dev encrypted VG route and that is the rest of the file system so we can have all the encrypted. So anything saved anywhere else but except for boot is going to be encrypted on this machine. So all of the databases, all the things that I may store in here are completely and fully encrypted. All right, so let's talk about kind of how I knew, how I know what is or isn't encrypted. So to give you a better idea here, if we do Eftis L for list XVDA, it's a 30 gig partition I set up for this demo and it tells you, right here's the Linux, this is the extended partition and this shows as a Linux partition but it is technically an encrypted partition so it sees it but the only way to mount it is via the crypt command. So let's also look at going like this, talk about the crypt setup and how the command structure works for it. So we're going to do crypt setup, lux dump dev XVDA five and what this does it lists all what they refer to is the key slots that are in there. So for each lux encrypted device you can have multiple key slots and what those key slots do is each key slot is just a password in there. That password can be changed per key. Now it's just extra keys that are not necessary but neat that you can do them because what these extra keys do is you can have two passwords that unlock the same lux encryption drive and that way if you ever wanted to revoke a second password but keep the primary password you could later revoke it if there was some reason to do so but it also means different people can have different keys to restart the machine. Kind of gives you different revocation methods so just a thought it is something that is built into there which I think is pretty slick. Now, what about volatility of this? Obviously there's some risk added when you add lux encryption. Well, specifically the risk that's added is this right here. Crypt setup lux header backup dev xvda5 header backup file and I just named it lucky header.bin. Why did I do that? Well, this is where the challenge can come in with lux. Lux just relies on a header file. The rest of the drive is noise so if there's some data corruption at drive you can't just run fseq against it to fix it. Not if the header is corrupted. If it hits that header if some type of corruption messes that up you have lost the drive because without the first piece of that header that is stored on the drive the rest of the drive cannot be decrypted. That is a critical piece to how lux works. So one of the recommended things for security and it's up to you is to back up the header.bin. I say it's up to you because the other way that we handle is we're less worried about backing up the header file we back up the entirety of the data set itself. So if I ever ended up with one of the volumes I have encrypted with lux I would check my shoulders and restore from backups as opposed to just trying to do the header bin. The risk with the header bin is of course now you have some of the information that you would be storing outside that system to restore that header which of course I guess you could put it on a lux encrypted thumb drive as well but then if it doesn't boot there's a process to getting that header bin restored. How do we get that header restored? It's actually pretty easy. This was lux header backup. There's a lux header restore command. And you type in yes and it restores the header. Now another thing about the way lux setup works this is a case sensitive. So when you see things like create and lux format lux kill slot lux resume remove resize status they're all case sensitive. So it's not that it just has an uppercase letter in here for lux open or lux header backup. If we were trying to type the same command lux header restore and I just didn't capitalize the R it won't work. So please note the case sensitivity nature of the lux commands. So what about changing a password? So I set my system up and it had me type a password and I want to change it. So I have to re-encrypt the drive. No, so re-encrypting the drive is not necessary with lux we can just do lux setup change key. Now you may have noticed that there's multiple key slots and there's two of them in use. What it does is it wants to know the password of the key I want to be changed. So if I type a password that matches the key I typed one that didn't on purpose right now no key matching this pass phrase. Let's try it again. I type the key that does match the pass phrase and our new pass phrase. Verifies the pass phrase and it takes a second and now this drive once this pops back is now re-keyed on boot to have a different password. Please make sure you don't forget what you typed. That's obviously a really important factor in doing this because it's that quick to re-key a drive but if you forget the password, oops I think I know I typed it wrong that time on accident and our pass phrase be changed. Change it back. Now we've re-keyed this drive to there. And remember this is the pass phrase on boot and when you do this you can also add new key. So there's options to do the same thing it was actually the command is gonna be think it is yeah lux add key. So now we can add another pass phrase to unlock this drive. And sometimes this is a good way to do it as well from a sanity check of add a new key before you remove the old key and there's a way you can delete the key as well. So those are a couple of different factors. Now another way to set up your server so you don't have to get council access every single time you boot because obviously that can be very pain is to set up a second hard drive that you store your data on that is encrypted. That means you would be able to boot up your virtual machines. This is frequently the way we set them up. We don't necessarily load the whole virtual machine encrypted but we attach a data drive to it that is encrypted. That way the machine will boot up and I have to actively log into the machine because there's sometimes a remote and far away where I can't easily get to them and then type in the password to decrypt the drive with the actual databases where the files are kept where the actual critical data is. This is a convenience over security. So it's hard to get inside of a data center necessarily and take a machine out. So you're in the list worried about that but if you have the data in an encrypted part cool but if you have to reboot the machine which happens when there's a kernel update I know you can use kernel splicing to avoid those but if you have to reboot a machine or there's an outage at data center that causes the power to go out and come back on physically logging into machines from a console access can be challenging. So that's why you frequently want to load the machine if it's a server and then encrypt the data drive attached to it. So let's cover that part and how that works. So if we do fdisk-l we list out all the drives. So we have the disk XVDB which is the second 15 gig hard drive and we have the boot one XVDA that we're working on. So we're going to start with this. So let's make sure there's no partitions on it. Dev XVDB nothing free blank space. Now, normal process you would make FS well you create some partitions and you do a make FS and create partitions on it but we want this to be a lux encrypted drive. So we're going to create one starts with the crypt setup command like they all the lux formats do lux format dev XVDB. Yes, we want to destroy it within a precarious. Yes, create a password for it. And that's it. We've created the lux container. So now if we go back to CF disk it warns me that if I write this it's a crypt slux signature on there and I'd be overriding that header and destroying it we certainly don't want to do that but there's no partition we didn't format it. The UI version when we do this in a GUI makes it easy because it does all this in one step. This is what happens when you're doing it manually. So now we're going to go ahead and we're going to say crypt setup lux open because the only thing we did was create the container with a password but we didn't open it or mount it. So it was dev XV because we're dealing with it as a device. Now we got to get the device name and this is where it shows up in the mapper part. So we're going to call this data drive. I spelled driver actually will D-A-T-A-D-R-I. We'll use a case sensitivity here. So we're going to crypt setup lux open which means unlock this partition and then create a data drive. So go here, type in the password. All right, now we're going to go over here to dev mapper. There is my data drive. Now let's look at how behind the scenes that's working. So as I said, because this works to the kernel level it creates a new device for each unencrypted drive. That way when you have these drives they are completely treated like any other hard drive and the kernels taking care of all the abstraction layer of doing the encryption and decryption and getting the data to the device in an encrypted manner but then your programs accessing it access it like any other hard drive. So it added it to data drive and it's pointing at DM three behind the scenes in case you're wondering as why I did it that way to show you but you can give it easier, easier to remember names and you can write scripts obviously to do this, this can all be scripted. So now that we've done that the only thing we haven't done is create a file system. So now because it's done there we like I said we want to create the file system inside the encrypted containers. So we're going to make fs.ext4.dev mapper because that's where it stores or unlocks and creates all the unlocked devices that can be treated like a normal file system. And once again make fs doesn't have to be any awareness of the encryption it's taking care of at the kernel level so it just doesn't make fs as if this is any other storage device, done. Now what if I wanted to fsck that, I can do that. I once again if I would need to fsck dev mapper data drive you can do your standard fsck tools and everything else it works just like a regular drive and if we go over here to slash mount make dir data we would do mount slash dev mapper data drive mount data shows up like any other mounted drive. So it's really simple how it works once you kind of get the concept of it's streaming through the kernel and handling it behind the scenes. So everything you create with Lux Open it adds another device here and like I said all this can be scripted and then you choose where you want it to mount. So it mounts and all of your data goes inside of here but anything that goes inside of data now when it at mount is automatically encrypted under Lux side and we can close this we can open it every time it reboots it does require the password you put back in like I said there's ways you can automate some of that but of course at the risk of security but this is a good way to make sure all of your data is encrypted so you would store all of the data that's critical to the machine so the machine can be rebooted remotely SSH back in remotely and then manually mount the data drive back so whatever services are running on it can start and this is a good way when you have remote server setup to lock down the data so they're encrypted in case anyone physically tries to take the server because obviously that's really a big concern. So hopefully this was helpful hopefully it gets you an idea and get started with Lux. It's amazing easy to use once you have a few concepts down and there's a lot of documentation for it. And the last piece I'll leave you with is the Arch Linux wiki on this is the DMCrypt device encryption. It's outstanding in detail of all the different functions you can do talking about how to do things with keys how to do all kinds of functions with it so there's a lot more to Lux this is just to get you started so if you have something really specific or different use cases there's a lot more expanded options but this is great disk encryption at the minimum you should be using it on any of your computers whether it's a laptop desktop in case anyone ever walks off of the drives or in the case that you have to send a drive out do you want to make sure that data is encrypted? It's arbitrary easy to use and with modern processors they have AES modules for encryption decryption there's really not a speed loss on this it's so minimal it's not like you're having a performance issue when you encrypt it which is wonderful about the way this works. So like I said get started on it here if you want to continue the discussion I'll be posting this in my forums if there's some follow up videos on how to do some more things and there's an interest in this let me know and maybe I'll make a follow up video or just answer the questions in the forums.

Erdoğan, 69, arrived with his wife, Emine, taking pictures with his supporters while waiting in line to vote. In his time in power, Erdoğan has taken tight control of most of Turkey's initiations and sidelined liberals and critics. His support slipped in the last few years as a series of currency crashes and a deepening cost of living crisis were brought on by his policy of slashing interest rates in the face of soaring inflation. A powerful orator and campaigner, Erdoğan has pulled out all the stops on the campaign trail as he battles to survive his toughest political test.	{ "url": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rG5sThSuyw", "license": "Creative Commons - Attribution - https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" }
