God has nothing to multiply and you get what I'm saying the boy with a little fish and the two two fishes with Five Loaves it was what he gave to Jesus multiply I did something of just this service I changed my offering I take my what because I know in the times of hardship is when you sow more I know the principle so I had to give seven figures in every service in every one every service do all five Services because I want to shift my level do you want to come out of poverty don't reduce your offering let me tell you don't reduce your this time because the more you plant the more you harvest the best time to plant is a time of hardship so the hardship God will bring I will bring the Harvest it's not your is that as long as this age when they see time and what it is a prayer time it is a fasting time see time there must be seed before there must be here that's how it works so don't say this hard time I will reduce my offering I know if you come to church I go a day for us they're not helping yourself you must practice the Covenant of giving a hand receiving great is your future in the midst of this time God distanced waste God says what The Prodigal Son wasted all that he had and he went into wanting Luke 15 11-32 script just classifies a waster as thoughtful you know what it was this waste is spending without budgeting that's what you mean by ways West is what why they say you're wasting is what you're spending with that budget you have especially without work then you're wasting spending without budget is waste EG for instance you have fleet of cars without a personal house or investment you can fall back on in the future that's the wish that's what they're your wasted resources without knowing you have Fleet or what cars but you don't have a house you don't have any investment then you are wasted because the cars can't bring you money but you have to invest in something that will bring money for you to buy guys are you getting me now be more investment conscious than just spending and spending be more investment what than just spending on spending be more investment conscious than just spending on be more investment conscious don't say I need to buy this I need to buy this now say I think I need to invest I need what I must invest this when money enters your hand take investment before spending prudent people take investment don't spend everything in your hands when money comes in invest in the kingdom of God first invest in something I'll bring forth profit before you start enjoying life let me give practical illustration when this ministry started for nine years I did not travel not because there was no money to travel but if I traveled that time if you have fed income so we invested in our future and what our future before I started traveling do you understand after nine years I could travel to anywhere today I could travel to anywhere the income has grown to a point where the investment of this commission is too heavy you know the investment in the people in what the people today investment is in the people that I can go to anywhere in the world is that not through it will affect the income but if I started that from the beginning what will happen system will crash when you are growing the more investment conscious especially now where everything is tight don't just go buy shoe buy this no invest in your brain invest in your academics invest in your growth invest in your business put money into your business then business worth grow then from The Profit without spending are you okay what I'm saying now don't just go for pleasure when there's no investment don't buy cars when you don't have business are you getting what I'm saying those I like to live in good house nobody wouldn't allowed to live in good house but the good house will not bring money I like to buy a good car no problem with the good can bring money no so first of all invest the good kind of money to your business this time everybody needs to invest are you hearing me be my investment conscious than spending and spending sorry yeah yeah say here and if you watch the rich they are very stingy through you know why you say rich man they seem to you ask mine he works for the money so it does not waste it rich people don't spend money check very well they don't spend money now it is those around they will waste money are

A-qMY3MYw74 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-qMY3MYw74 | Sense and Sensibility (version 5 dramatic reading) | Jane Austen | Dramatic Readings | 7/7 | chapter 46 of Sense and Sensibility this LibriVox recording is in the public domain Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen chapter 46 Marianne's illness the weakening in its kind had not been long enough to make her recovery slow and with youth natural strength and her mother's presence in aid it proceeded so smoothly has to enable her to remove within four days after the arrival of the latter into mrs. Palmer's dressing room when there at her own particular request for she was impatient to pour forth her thanks to him for fetching her mother Colonel Brandon was invited to visit her his emotion on entering the room in seeing her altered looks and in receiving the pale hand which she immediately held out to him was such as in Elinor's conjecture must arise from something more than his affection for Marianne for the consciousness of its being known to others and she soon discovered in his melancholy eye and varying complexion as he looked at her sister the probable recurrence of many past scenes of misery to his mind brought back by that resemblance between Marianne and Eliza already acknowledged and now strengthened by the hollow eye the sickly skin the posture of reclining weakness and the warm acknowledgment of peculiar obligation mrs. Dashwood not less watchful of what passed than her daughter but with a mind very differently influenced and therefore watching to very different effect saw nothing in the Colonel's behavior but what arose from the most simple and self-evident sensations while in the actions and words of Marianne she persuaded herself to think that something more than gratitude already dawned at the end of another day or two Marianne growing visibly stronger every 12 hours mrs. Dashwood urged equally by her own enter daughter's wishes began to talk of removing to Barton on her measures depended those of her two friends mrs. Jennings could not quit Cleveland during the Dashwood's stay and Colonel Brandon was soon brought by their United request to consider his own abode there as equally determinate if not equally indispensable at his and mrs. Jennings's United request in return mrs. Dashwood was prevailed on to accept the use of his carriage on her journey back for the better accommodation of her sick child and to the colonel at the joint invitation of mrs. Dashwood and mrs. Jennings whose active good nature made her friendly and hospitable for other people as well as herself engaged with pleasure to redeem it by a visit at the cottage in the course of a few weeks the day of separation and departure arrived and Marianne after taking so particular and lengthened a leave of mrs. Jennings one so earnestly grateful so full of respect and kind wishes as seemed due to her own heart from a secret acknowledgment of past inattention and bidding Colonel Brandon farewell with a cordiality of a friend was carefully assisted by him into the carriage of which he seemed anxious that she should engross at at least half mrs. Dashwood and Elinor then followed and the others were left by themselves to talk of the travellers and feel their own dullness till mrs. Jennings was summoned to her Shay's to take comfort in the gossip of her maid for the loss of her two young companions and Colonel Brandon immediately afterwards took his solitary way to delaford the Dashwood's were two days on the road and Marianne bore her journey on both without essential fatigue everything that the most zealous affection the most solicitous care could do to render her comfortable was the office of each watchful companion and each found their reward in her bodily ease and her calmness of spirits to Elinor the observation of the latter was particularly grateful she who had seen her week after week so constantly suffering oppressed by anguish of heart which she had neither courage to speak of nor fortitude to conceal now saw with a joy which no other could equally share an apparent composure of mind which in being the result as she trusted of serious reflection must eventually lead her to contentment and cheerfulness as they approached Barton indeed and entered on scenes of which every field and every tree brought some peculiar some painful recollection she grew silent and thoughtful and turning away her face from their notice sat earnestly gazing through the window but here Elinor could neither wonder nor blame and when she saw as she assisted Marianne from the carriage that she had been crying she saw only an emotion too natural in itself to raise anything less tender than pity and in its unobtrusive nests in titled to praise in the whole of her subsequent manner she traced the direction of a mind awakened to reasonable exertion for no sooner had they entered to their common sitting-room than Marianne turned her eyes around it with a look of resolute firmness as if determined at once to accustom herself to the sight of every object with which the remembrance of Willoughby could be connected she said little but every sentence aimed at cheerfulness and though a sigh sometimes escaped her had never passed away without the atonement of a smile after dinner she would try her piano fort she went to it but the music on which her eye first rested was an opera procured for her by Willoughby containing some of their favorite duets and bearing on its outward leaf her own name in his handwriting that would not do she shook her head put the music aside and after running over the keys for a minute complained of feebleness in her fingers and closed the instrument again declaring however with firmness as she did so that she should in future practice much the next morning produced no abatement in these happy symptoms on the contrary with a mind and body alike strengthened by rest she looked and spoke with more genuine spirit anticipating the pleasure of Margaret's return and talking of the dear family party which would then be restored of their mutual pursuits and cheerful society as the only happiness worth a wish when the weather is settled and I have recovered my strength said she we will take long walks together every day we will walk to the farm at the edge of the down and see how the children go on we will walk to Sir John's new plantations at barton cross in the abalones and we will often go the old ruins of the Priory and try to trace its foundations as far as we are told they once reached I know we shall be happy I know the summer will pass happily away I mean never to be later in rising than six and from that time till dinner I shall divide every moment between music and reading I have formed my plan and am determined to enter on a course of serious study our own library is too well known to me to be resorted to for anything beyond mere amusement but there are many works well worth reading at the park and there are others of more modern production which I know I can borrow of Colonel Brandon by reading only six hours a day I shall gain in the course of a twelvemonth a great deal of instruction which I now feel myself to want Elinor honored her for a plan which originated so nobly as this though smiling to see the same eager fancy which had been leading her to the extreme of languid indolence and selfish repining now at work in introducing excess into a scheme of such rational employment and virtuous self-control her smile however changed to a sigh when she remembered that promise to Willoughby was yet unfulfilled and feared she had that to communicate which might again unsettle the mind of Marianne and ruin at least for a time this fair prospect of busy tranquility willing therefore to delay the evil hour she resolved to wait till her sisters health were more secure before she appointed it but the resolution was made only to be broken Marianne had been two or three days at home before the weather was fine enough for an invalid like herself to venture out but at last a soft genial morning appeared such as might tempt the daughter's wishes and the mother's confidence and Marianne leaning on Elinor's arm was authorized to walk as long as she could without fatigue in the lane before the house the sisters set out at a pace slow as the feebleness of Marianne in an exercise hitherto untried since her illness required and they had advanced only so far beyond the house as to admit a full view of the hill the important hill behind when pausing with her eyes turned towards it Marianne calmly said that exactly there pointing with one hand on that projecting mound there I fell and there I first saw Willoughby her voice sunk with the word but presently reviving she added I am thankful to find that I can look with so little pain on the spot shall we ever talk on that subject Helena hesitatingly it was said or will it be wrong I can talk of it now I hope as I ought to do Elinor tenderly invited her to be open as for regret said Marianne I have done with that as far as he is concerned I do not mean to talk to you of what my feelings have been for him but what they are now at present if I could be satisfied on one point if I could be allowed to think that he was not always acting a part not always deceiving me but above all if I could be assured that he never was so very wicked as my fears have sometimes fancied him since the story of that unfortunate girl she stopped Elinor joyfully treasured her words as she answered if you could be assured of that you think you should be easy yes my peace of mind is doubly involved in it for not only is it horrible to suspect a person who has been what he has been to me of such designs but what must it make me appear to myself what in a situation like mine but a most shamefully unguarded affection could expose me to have him asked her sister would you account for his behavior I would suppose him oh how gladly would I suppose him only fickle very very fickle Elinor said no more she was debating within herself on the eligibility of beginning her story directly or postponing it till Marianne were in stronger help and they crept on for a few minutes in silence I am not wishing him too much good said Marianne at last with a sigh when I wish his secret reflections may be no more unpleasant than my own he will suffer enough in them do you compare your conduct with his no I compared it with what it ought to have been I compare it with yours our situations have borne little resemblance they have borne more than our conduct do not my dearest Elinor let your kindness defend what I know your judgment must censure my illness has made me think it has given me leisure and calmness for serious recollection long before I was enough recovered to talk I was perfectly able to reflect I considered the past I saw in my own behavior since the beginning of our acquaintance with him last autumn nothing but a series of imprudence towards myself and want of kindness to others I saw that my own feelings had prepared my sufferings and that my want a fortune sheet under them had almost led me to the grave my illness I well knew had been entirely brought on myself by such negligence of my own health as I had felt even at the time to be wrong had I died it would have been self-destruction I did not know my danger till the danger was removed but with such feelings as these reflections gave me I wondered my recovery wonder that the very eagerness of my desire to live to have time for atonement to my god and to all did not kill me at once had I died in what peculiar misery should I have left you my nurse my friend my sister you who had seen all the fretful selfishness of my latter days who had known all the murmurings of my heart how should I have lived in your remembrance my mother - how could you have consoled her I cannot express my own abhorrent of myself whenever I looked towards the past I saw some duty neglected or some failing indulged everybody seemed injured by me the kindness the unceasing kindness of mrs. Jennings I had repaid with ungrateful contempt to the Middletons to the Palmers the Steel's to every common acquaintance even I had been insolent and unjust with a heart hardened against their merits and temper irritated by their very attention - John - Fanny yes even to them little as they deserve I had given less than their Jew but you you above all above my mother had been wronged by me i and only I knew your heart and its sorrows yet - what did it influence me not to any compassion that could benefit to you or myself your example was before me but - what a veil was i more considerate of you and your comfort did I imitate your forbearance or lessen your restraints by taking any part in those offices of general complaisance or particular gratitude which you had hitherto been left to discharge alone no not less when I knew you to be unhappy than when I had believed you at ease did I turn away from every exertion of Duty or friendship scarcely allowing sorrow to exist but with me regretting only that heart which had deserted and wronged me and leaving you for whom I professed an unbounded affection to be miserable for my sake here ceased the rapid flow of herself reproving spirit and Elinor impatient to soothe though too honest to flatter gave her instantly that praise and support which are frankness and her contrition so well deserved Marianne pressed her hand and replied you are very good the future must be my proof I have laid down my plan and if I am capable of adhering to it my feeling shall be governed and my temper improved they shall no longer worry others nor torture myself I shall now live solely for my family you my mother and Margaret must henceforth be all the world to me you will share my affections entirely between you from you from my home I shall never again have the smallest incitement to move and if I do mix another society it will be only to show that my spirit is humbled my heart amended and that I can practice the civilities the lesser duties of life with gentleness and forbearance as for willoughby to say that I shall soon or that I shall ever forget him would be idle his remembrance can be overcome by no change of circumstances or opinions but it shall be regulated it shall be checked by religion by Reason by constant employments she paused and added in a low voice if I could but know his heart everything would become easy Elinor who had now been for some time reflecting on the propriety or impropriety of speedily hazarding her narration without feeling at all nearer decision than at first heard this and perceiving that as reflection did nothing resolution must do all soon found herself leading to the fact she managed the recital as she hoped with address prepared her anxious listener with caution related simply and honestly the chief points on which willoughby grounded his apology did justice to his repentance and softened only his protestations of present regard Marianne said not a word she trembled her eyes were fixed on the ground and her lips became whiter than even sickness had left them a thousand inquiries sprung up from her heart but she dared not urge one she caught every syllable with panting eagerness her hand unknowingly to herself closely pressed her sister's and tears covered her cheeks Elinor dreading her being tired led her towards home until they reached the door of the cottage easily conjecturing what her curiosity must be though no question was suffered to speak it talked of nothing but Willoughby and their conversation together and was carefully minut in every particular of speech and look where my Newton Ascan be safely indulged as soon as they entered to the house Marianne with a kiss of gratitude and these two words just articulate through her tears tell mama withdrew from her sister and walked slowly upstairs Elinor would not attempt to disturb a solitude so reasonable as what she now sought and with a mind anxiously pre arranging its result and a resolution of reviving the subject again should Marianne fail to do it she turned into the parlor to fulfill her parting injunction end of chapter 46 chapter 47 of Sense and Sensibility this LibriVox recording is in the public domain Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen chapter xlvii mrs. Dashwood did not hear unmoved the vindication of her former favorite she rejoiced in his being cleared from some part of his imputed guilt she was sorry for him she wished him happy but the feelings of the past could not be recalled nothing could restore him with a faith unbroken a character unblemished to Mary Ann nothing could do away the knowledge of what the latter had suffered through his means nor remove the guilt of his conduct towards Eliza nothing could replace him therefore in her former esteem nor injure the interests of Colonel and had mrs. dashwood like her daughter heard Willoughby's story from himself had she witnessed his distress and been under the influence of his countenance and his manner it is probable that her compassion would have been greater but it was neither in Elinor's power nor in her wish to rouse such feelings in another by her retailed explanation as had at first been called forth in her self-reflection had given calmness to her judgment and sobered her own opinion of Willoughby's deserts she wished therefore to declare only the simple truth and lay open such facts as were really due to his character without any embellishment of tenderness to lead the fancy astray in the evening when they were all three together Mary Ann began voluntarily to speak of him again but that it was not without an effort the Restless unquiet thoughtfulness in which she had been for some time previously sitting her rising color as she spoke and her unsteady voice plainly showed I wish to assure you both said she that I see everything as you can desire me to do mrs. Dashwood would have interrupted her instantly with soothing tenderness had not Elinor who really wished to hear her sisters unbiased opinion by an eager sign engaged her silence Marianne slowly continued it is a great relief to me what Elinor told me this morning I have now heard exactly what I wished to hear for some moments her voice was lost but recovering herself she added and with greater calmness than before I am now perfectly satisfied I wish for no change I never could have been happy with him after knowing as sooner or later I must have known all this I should have had no confidence no esteem nothing could have done it away to my feelings I know it I know it cried her mother happy with a man of libertine practices with one who so injured the Peace of the dearest our friends and the best of man no my Marianne has not a heart to be made happy with such a man her conscience her sensitive conscience would have felt all that the conscience of her husband ought to have felt Marianne's side and repeated I wish for no change you consider the matter said Eleanor exactly as a good mind in the sound understanding must consider it and I daresay you perceive as well as myself not only in this but in many other circumstances reason enough to be convinced that your marriage must have involved you in many certain troubles and disappointments in which you would have been poorly supported by an affection on his side much less certain had you married you must have been always pour his expensiveness is acknowledged even by himself and his whole conduct declares that self-denial is a word hardly understood by him his demands and your inexperience together on a small very small income must have brought on de-stresses which would not have been the less Grievous to you from having been entirely unknown and thought of before your sense of honour and honesty would have led you I know when aware of your situation to attempt all the economy that would appear to you possible and perhaps as long as your frugality retrenched only on your own comfort you might have been suffered to practice it but beyond that and how little could the utmost of your single management do to stop the ruin which had begun before your marriage beyond that had you endeavoured however reasonably to abridge his enjoyments is it not to be feared that instead of prevailing on feeling so selfish to consent to it you would have lessened your own influence on his heart and made him regret the connection which had involved him in such difficulties Marianne's lips quivered and she repeated the word selfish in a tone that implied do you really think him selfish the whole of his behavior replied Elinor from the beginning to the end of the affair has been grounded on selfishness it was selfishness which first made him sport with your affections which afterwards when his own were engaged made him delay the confession of it and which finally carried him from Barton his own enjoyment or his own ease was in every particular his rule in principle it is very true my happiness never was his object at present continued Eleanor he regrets what he has done and why does he regret it because he finds it has not answered towards himself it has not made him happy his circumstances are now unembarrassed he suffers from no evil of that kind and he thinks only that he has married a woman of less amiable temper than yourself but does it follow that had he married you he would have been happy the inconveniences would have been different he would then have suffered under the pecuniary distresses which because they are removed he now reckons as nothing he would have had a wife of whose temper he could make no complaint but he would have been always necessitous always poor and probably would soon have learned to rank the innumerable comforts of a clear estate and a good income as a far more importance even to domestic happiness than the mere temper of a wife I have not a doubt of it said Marianne and I have nothing to regret nothing but my own folly rather say your mother's imprudence my child said mrs. Dashwood she must be answerable Marianne would not let her proceed and Elinor satisfied that each felt their own error wished to avoid any survey of the past that might weaken her sisters spirits she therefore pursuing the first subject immediately continued one observation may I think be fairly drawn from the whole of the story that all will of his difficulties have arisen from the first offense against virtue in his behavior to Elijah Williams that crime has been the origin of every lesser one and all his present discontents Marianne assented most feelingly to the remark and her mother was led by it to an enumeration of Colonel Brandon's injuries and merits warm as friendship and design could unitedly dictate her daughter did not look however as if much of it were heard by her Elinor according to her expectation saw on the two or three following days that Marianne did not continue to gain strength as she had done but while her resolution was unsubdued and she still tried to appear cheerful and easy her sister could safely trust to the effect of time upon her health Margaret returned and the family were again all restored to each other again quietly settled at the cottage and if not pursuing their usual studies with quite so much vigour as when they first came to Barton at least planning a vigorous prosecution of them in future Elinor grew impatient for some tidings of Edward she had heard nothing of him since her leaving London nothing knew of his plans nothing certain even of his present abode some letters had passed between her and her brother in consequence of Marianne's illness and in the first of Joan's there had been this sentence we know nothing of our unfortunate Edward and can make no inquiries on so prohibited a subject but conclude him to be still at Oxford which was all the intelligence of Edward afforded her by the correspondence for his name was not even mentioned in any of the succeeding letters she was not doomed however to be long in ignorance of his measures their manservant had been sent one morning to Exeter on business and when as he waited at table he had satisfied the inquiries of his mistress as to the event of his errand this was his voluntary communication I suppose you know man that mr. Ferrars is married Marianne gave a violent start fixed her eyes upon Elinor saw her turning pale and fell back in her chair in hysterics mrs. Dashwood whose eyes as she answered to the servants inquiry had intuitively taken the same direction was shocked to perceive by Elinor's countenance how much she really suffered and a moment afterwards alike distressed by Marianne's situation knew not on which child to bestow her principal attention the servant who saw only that miss Marianne was taken ill had sense enough to call one of the maids who with mrs. Dashwood's assistance supported her into the other room by that time Marianne was rather better and her mother leaving her to the care of Margaret and the maid returned to Elinor who though still much disordered had so far recovered the use of her reason and voice has to be just beginning an inquiry of Thomas as to the source of his intelligence mrs. Dashwood immediately took all that trouble on herself and Elinor had the benefit of the information without the exertion of seeking it who told you that mr. Farrar's was married Thomas I see mr. Ferrars myself ma'am this morning and Exeter and his lady too miss Steele as was they was stopping in a chaise at the door of the New London Hin as I went there with a message from Sally at the park to her brother who was one of the post boys I happen to look up as I went by the shade and so I see directly it was the youngest miss Steele so I took off my hat and she knew me and called to me and inquired after you ma'am and the young ladies especially mr. Marianne and bid me I should give her compliments and mr. Ferrars their best compliments and service and how sorry they was they had not time to come on and see you but they was in a great hurry to go forward before they was going further down for a little while but house ever when they come back they'd make sure to come and see you but did she tell you she was married Thomas yes ma'am she smiled and said how she had changed her name said she was in these parts she was always a very affable and free smoking young lady and very civil behaved so I made free to wish her joy was mr. Farrar's in the carriage with her yes ma'am I just see him leaning back in it but he did not look up he never was a gentleman much for talking Elinor's heart could easily account for his not putting himself forward and mrs. Dashwood probably found the same explanation was there no one else in the carriage no man only they - do you know where they came from they come straight from town as Miss Lucy mrs. Ferrars told me and are they going farther westward yes ma'am but not to bide long they will soon be back again and then they'd be sure to call here mrs. Dashwood snow looked at her daughter but Elinor knew better than to expect them she recognized the whole of Lucy in the message and was very confident that Edward would never come near them she observed in a low voice to her mother that they were probably going down to mr. Pratt's near Plymouth Thomas's intelligence seemed over Elinor looked as if she wished to hear more did you see them off before you came away no man the horses were just coming out but I could not bite any longer I was afraid of being late did mrs. Farrar's look well yes ma'am she said how she was very well and to my mind she was always a very handsome young lady and she seemed vastly contented mrs. Dashwood could think of no other question and Thomas and the tablecloth now alike needless were soon afterwards dismissed Marianne had already sent to say that she should eat nothing more mrs. Dashwood's and Elinor's appetites were equally lost and Margaret might think herself very well off that with so much uneasiness as both her sisters had lately experienced so much reason as they had often had to be careless of their meals she had never been obliged to go without her dinner before when the dessert and the wine were arranged and mrs. Dashwood and Elinor were left by themselves they remained long together in a similarity of thoughtfulness and silence mrs. Dashwood feared to hazard any remark and ventured not to offer consolation she now found that she had erred in relying on Elinor's representation of herself and justly concluded that everything had been expressly softened at the time to spare her from an increase of unhappiness suffering as she then had suffered for Marianne she found that she had been misled by the careful a considerate attention of her daughter to think the attachment which once she had so well understood much slighter in reality then she had been want to believe or than it was now proved to be she feared that under this persuasion she had been unjust inattentive knee almost unkind to her Elinor that Marianne's affliction because more acknowledged more immediately before her had too much engrossed her tenderness and led her away to forget that in Elinor she might have a daughter suffering almost as much certainly within less self provocation and greater fortitude end of chapter 47 chapter 48 of Sense and Sensibility this LibriVox recording is in the public domain Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen chapter xlviii Eleanor now found the difference between the expectation of an unpleasant event however certain the mind may be told to consider it and certainty itself she now found that in spite of herself she had always admitted a hope while Edward remained single that something would occur to prevent his marrying Lucy that some resolution of his own some mediation of friends or some more eligible opportunity of establishment for the lady would arise to assist to the happiness of all but he was now married and she condemned her heart for the lurking flattery which so much heightened the pain of the intelligence that he should be married soon before as she imagined he could be in orders and consequently before he could be in possession of the living surprised her a little at first but she soon saw how likely it was that Lucy in herself Provident care in her haste to secure him should overlook everything but the risk of delay they were married married in town and now hastening down to her uncle's what had Edward felt on being within four miles from Barton on seeing her mother's servant on hearing Lucy's message would soon she supposed be settled at delaford delaford that place in which so much conspired to give her an interest which she wished to be acquainted with and yet desired to avoid she saw them in an instant in their parsonage-house saw in Lucy the active contriving manager uniting at once a desire of smart appearance with the utmost frugality and ashamed to be suspected of half her economical practices pursuing her own interest in every thought courting the favour of Colonel Brandon of mrs. Jennings and of every wealthy friend in Edward she knew not what she saw nor what she wished to see happy or unhappy nothing pleased her she turned away her head from every sketch of him and her flattered herself that someone of their connections in London would write to them to announce the event and give further particulars but day after day passed off and brought no letter no tidings though uncertain that anyone were to blame she found fault with every absent friend they were all thoughtless are indolent when do you write to Colonel Brandon mom was an inquiry which sprung from the impatience of her mind to have something going on I wrote to him my love last week and rather expect to see than to hear from him again I earnestly pressed his coming to us and should not be surprised to see him walk in today or tomorrow or any day this was gaining something something to look forward to Colonel Brandon must have some information to give scarcely had she so determined it when the figure of a man on horseback drew her eyes to the window he stopped at their gate it was a gentleman it was Colonel Brandon himself now she could hear more and she trembled in expectation of it but it was not Colonel Brandon neither his heir nor his height were it pasa she must say it must be Edward she looked again he had just dismounted she could not be mistaken it was Edward she moved away and sat down he comes from mr. Pratt's purposely to see us I will become I will be mistress of myself in a moment she perceived that the others were likewise aware of the mistake she saw her mother and Marianne change color saw them look at herself and whisper a few sentences to each other she would have given the world to be able to speak and to make them understand that she hoped no coolness no slight would appear in their behavior to him but she had no utterance and was obliged to leave all to their own discretion not a syllable passed aloud they all waited in silence for the appearance of their visitor his footsteps were heard along the gravel path in a moment he was in the passage and in another he was before them his countenance as he entered the room was not too happy even for Eleanor his complexion was white with agitation and he looked as if fearful of his reception and conscious that he merited no kind one mrs. Dashwood however conforming as she trusted to the wishes of that daughter by whom she then meant in the warmth of her heart to be guided in everything met with a look of forced complacency gave him her hand and wished him joy he coloured and stammered out an unintelligible reply Elinor's lips had moved with her mother's and when the moment of action was over she wished that she had shaken hands with him too but it was then too late and with a countenance meaning to be open she sat down again and talked of the weather Marianne had retreated as much as possible out of sight to conceal her distress and Margaret understanding some part but not the whole of the case thought it incumbent on her to be dignified and therefore took a seat as far from him as she could and maintained a strict silence when Eleanor had ceased to rejoice in the dryness of the season a very awful pause took place it was put an end to by mrs. Dashwood who felt obliged to hope that he had left mrs. Ferrars very well in a hurried manner he replied in the affirmative another pause Eleanor resolving to exert herself though fearing the sound of her own voice now said his mrs. Ferrars at longstaple at longstaple he replied with an air of surprise no my mother is in town I meant said Eleanor taking up some work from the table to inquire for mrs. Edward Ferris she dared not look up but her mother and Marianne both turned their eyes on him he colored seemed perplexed looked doubtingly and after some hesitation said perhaps you mean my brother you mean mrs. mrs. Robert Ferrars mrs. Robert Ferrars was repeated by Marianne and her mother in an accent of the utmost amazement and though Elinor could not speak even her eyes were fixed on him with the same impatient wonder he rose from his seat and walked to the window apparently from not knowing what to do took up a pair of scissors that lay there and while spoiling both them and their sheath by cutting the latter to pieces as he spoke said in a hurried voice perhaps you do not know you may not have heard that my brother is Lately married to - the youngest - Miss Lucy Steele his words were echoed with unspeakable astonishment by all but Elinor who sat with her head leaning over her work in a state of such agitation has made her hardly know where she was yes said he they were married last week and are now adore ished Elinor could sit it no longer she almost ran out of the room and as soon as the door was closed burst into tears of joy which at first she thought would never cease Edward who had till then looked anywhere rather than at her saw her hurry away and perhaps saw or even heard her emotion for immediately afterwards he fell into a reverie which no remarks no inquiries no affectionate address of mrs. Dashwood could penetrate and at last without saying a word quitted the room and walked out towards the village leaving the others in the greatest astonishment and perplexity on a change in his situation so wonderful and so sudden a perplexity which they had no means of lessening but by their own conjectures end of chapter 48 chapter 49 of Sense and Sensibility this LibriVox recording is in the public domain Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen chapter xlix unaccountable however as the circumstances of his release might appear to the whole family it was certain that Edward was free and to what purpose that freedom would be employed was easily predetermined by all for after experiencing the blessings of one imprudent engagement contracted without his mother's consent as he had already done for more than four years nothing less could be expected of him in the failure of that than the immediate contraction of another his errand at Barton in fact was a simple one it was only to ask Elinor to marry him and considering that he was not altogether inexperienced in such a question it might be strange that he should feel so uncomfortable in the present case as he really did so much in need of encouragement and fresh air how soon he had walked himself into the proper resolution however how soon an opportunity of exercising it occurred in what manner he expressed himself and how he was received need not be particularly told this only need be said but when they all sat down to table at four o'clock about three hours after his arrival he had secured his lady engaged her mother's consent and was not only in the raptures profession of the lover but in the reality of reason and truth one of the happiest of men his situation indeed was more than commonly joyful he had more than the ordinary triumph of accepted love to swell his heart and raise his spirits he was released without any reproach to himself from an entanglement which had long formed his misery from a woman whom he had long ceased to love and elevated at once to that security with another which he must have thought of almost with despair as soon as he had learned to consider it with desire he was brought not from doubt or suspense but from misery to happiness and the change was openly spoken in such a genuine flowing grateful cheerfulness as his friends had never witnessed in him before his heart was now opened to Elinor all its weaknesses all its errors confessed and his first boyish attachment to Lucy treated with all the philosophic dignity of 24 it was a foolish Isle inclination on my side said he the consequence of ignorance of the world and want of employment had my brother given me some active profession when I was removed at 18 from the care of mr. Brett I think nay I am sure it would never have happened for though I left long stable with what I thought had a time a most uncomfortable preference for his knees yet had I then had any pursuit any object to engage my time and keep me at a distance from her for a few months I should very soon have outgrown the fancied attachment especially by mixing more with the world as in such case I must have done but instead of having anything to do instead of having any profession chosen for me or being allowed to choose any myself I returned home to be completely idle and for the first twelve month afterwards I had not even the nominal employment which belonging to the University would have given me for I was not entered at Oxford till I was 19 I had therefore nothing in the world to do but to fancy myself in love and as my mother did not make my home in every respect comfortable as I had no friend no companion in my brother and disliked new acquaintances it was not a natural for me to be very often at loss table where I always felt myself at home and was always sure of a welcome and accordingly I spent the greatest part of my time there from eighteen to nineteen Lucy appeared everything that was amiable and obliging she was pretty - at least I thought so then and I had seized a little of other women that I could make no comparisons and see no defects considering everything therefore I hope foolish as our engagement was foolish as it has sins in every way when proved it was not at the time an unnatural or inexcusable piece of folly the change which a few hours had wrought in the minds and the happiness of the Dashwood's was such so great has promised them all the satisfaction of a sleepless night mrs. Dashwood too happy to be comfortable knew not how to love Edward nor praise Eleanor enough how to be enough thankful for his release without wounding his delicacy nor how at once to give them leisure for unrestrained conversation together and yet enjoy has she wished the sight in society of both Marianne could speak her happy yes only by Tears comparisons would occur regrets would arise and her joy though sincere as her love for her sister was of a kind to give her neither spirits nor language but Eleanor how are her feelings to be described from the moment of learning that Lucy was married to another that Edward was free to the moment of his justifying the hopes which had so instantly followed she was everything by turns but tranquil but when the second moment had passed when she found every doubt every solicitude removed compared her situation with what so lately it has been saw him honorably released from his former engagement saw him instantly profiting by the release to address herself and declare an affection as tender as constant as she had ever supposed it to be she was oppressed she was overcome by her own Felicity and happily disposed as is the human mind to be easily familiarized with any change for the better it required several hours to give sedateness to her spirits or any degree of tranquillity to her heart Edward was now fixed at the cottage at least for a week for whatever other claims might be made on him it was impossible that less than a week should be given up to the enjoyment of Elinor's company or suffice to say half that was to be said of the past the present and the future for though a very few hours spent in the hard labor of incessant talking will dispatch more subjects than can really be in common between any two rational creatures yet with lovers it is different between them no subject is finished no communication is even made till it has been made at least 20 times over Lucy's marriage the unceasing and reasonable wonder among them all formed of course one of the earliest discussions of the lovers and Elinor's particular knowledge of each party made it appear to her in view has one of the most extraordinary and unaccountable circumstances she had ever heard how they could be thrown together and by what attraction Robert could be drawn on to marry a girl of whose beauty she had herself heard him speak without any admiration a girl - already engaged to his brother and on whose account that brother had been thrown off by his family it was beyond her comprehension to make out to her own heart it was a delightful affair to her imagination it was even a ridiculous one but to her reason her judgment it was completely a puzzle Edward could only attempt an explanation by supposing that perhaps at first accidentally meeting the vanity of the one had been so worked on by the flattery of the other as to lead by degrees to all the rest Elinor remembered what Robert had told her in Harley Street of his opinion of what his own mediation in his brother's affairs might have done if applied to in time she repeated it to Edward that was exactly that profit was his immediate observation and that he presently added might perhaps be in his head when the acquaintance between them first began and Lucie perhaps at first might think only of procuring his good offices in my favor other designs might afterwards arise how long it had been carrying on between them however he was equally at a loss with herself to make out for at Oxford where he had remained for choice ever since his quitting London he had had no means of hearing of her but from herself and her letters to the very last were neither less frequent nor less affectionate than usual not the smallest suspicion therefore had ever occurred to prepare him for what followed and when at last it burst on him in a letter from Lucy herself he had been for some time he believed half stupefied in the wonder the horror and the joy of such a deliverance he puts the letter into Elinor's hands dear sir being very sure I have long lost your affections I have fought myself at liberty to bestow my own on another and have no doubt of being as happy with him as I once used to think I might be with you but I scorned to accept a hand while the heart was in others sincerely wish you happy in your choice and it shall not be my fault if we are not always good friends as our near relationship now makes proper I can safely say I owe you no ill-will and I'm sure you will be too generous to do us any ill offices your brother has gained my affections entirely as we could not live without one another we had just returned from the altar and are now on our way to Dawlish for a few weeks which place your dear brother has great curiosity to see but thought I would first trouble you with these few lines and to always remain your sincere well-wisher friend and sister Lucy Ferrars I have burnt all your letters and will return your picture the first opportunity please to destroy my Scrolls but the ring with my hair you are very welcome to keep Helena red and returned it without any comment I will not ask your opinion of it hasit composition said Edward for words I have seen where you in former days in a sister it is bad enough but in a wife how I have blushed over the pages of her writing and I believe I may say that since the first half he loved our foolish business this is the only letter I ever received from her of which the substance made me any immense will the defect of the style however it may have come about said Eleanor after a pause they are certainly married and your mother has brought on herself a most appropriate punishment the independent she settled on Robert through resentment against you has put it in his power to make his own choice and she has actually been bribing one son with a thousand a year to do the very deed which he disinherited the other for intending she will hardly be less hurt I suppose by Roberts marrying Lucy then she would have been by you're marrying her she will be more hurt by it for Robert always was her favorite she will be more hurt by it and on the same principle will forgive him much sooner in what state the affair stood at present between them Edward knew not for no communication with any of his family had yet been attempted by him he had quitted Oxford within four and twenty hours after Lucy's letter arrived and with only one object before him the nearest road to Barton had had no leisure to form any scheme of conduct with which that Road did not hold the most intimate connection he could do nothing till he were assured of his fate with Miss Dashwood and by his rapidity in seeking that fate it is to be supposed in spite of the jealousy with which he had once thought of Colonel Brandon in spite of the modesty with which he rated his own desserts and the politeness with which he talked of his doubts he did not upon the hall expect a very cruel reception it was his business however to say that he did and he said it very prettily what he might say on the subject to 12 months after must be referred to the imagination of husbands and wives the Lucy had certainly meant to deceive to go off with a flourish of malice against him in her message by Thomas was perfectly clear to Elinor and Edward himself now thoroughly enlightened on her character had no scruple in believing her capable of the utmost meanness of wanton ill-nature though his eyes had been long opened even before his acquaintance with Elinor began to her ignorant and a want of liberality in some of her opinions they had been equally imputed by him to her want of education and till her last letter reached him he had always believed her to be a well disposed good-hearted girl and thoroughly attached to himself nothing but such a persuasion could have prevented his put and to an engagement which long before the discovery of it laid him open to his mother's anger had been a continual source of disquiet and regret to him I thought it my duty said he independent of my feelings to give her the option of continuing the engagement or not when I was renounced by my mother and stood to all appearance without a friend in the world to assist me in such a situation as depth where there seemed nothing to Tim the aviary saw the vanity of any living creature how could I suppose when she so earnestly so warmly insisted on sharing my fate whatever it might be that anything but the most disinterested affection was her inducement and even now I cannot comprehend on what motive she acted what fancied advantage it could be to her to be fettered to a man for whom she had not a smallest regard and literally 2,000 pounds in the world she could not foresee that Colonel Brandon would give me a living no but she might suppose that something would occur in your favour that your own family might in time relent and at any rate she lost nothing by continuing the engagement for she has proved that it fettered neither her inclination nor her actions the connection was certainly a respectable one and probably gained her consideration among her friends and if nothing more advantageous occurred it will be better for her to marry you than be single Edward was of course immediately convinced that nothing could have been more natural than Lucy's conduct nor more self-evident than the motive of it elinor scolded him harshly as ladies always scold the imprudence which compliments themselves for having spent so much time with them at Norland when he must have felt his own inconstancy your behavior was certainly very wrong said she because to say nothing of my own conviction our relations were all led away by it to fancy and expect what as you were then situated could never be he could only plead an ignorance of his own heart and a mistaken confidence in the force of his engagement I was simply enough to think that because my faith was plighted to another there could be no danger in my being with you and that the consciousness of my engagement was to keep my heart as safe and sacred as my honor I felt that I admired you but I told myself it was only friendship until I began to make comparisons between yourself and Lucy I did not know how far I was God after that I suppose I was wrong in remaining so much in Sussex any arguments with which I reconcile myself to the expediency of it were no better than these the dangerous my own I'm doing no injury to anybody but myself Elinor smiled and shook her head edward heard with pleasure of Colonel Brandon's being expected at the cottage as he really wished not only to be better acquainted with him but to have an opportunity of convincing him that he no longer resented his giving him the living of delaford which at present said he after thanks so ungraciously delivered his mind were on the occasion he must think I have never forgiven him for offering now he felt astonished himself that he had never yet been to the place but so little interest had he taken in the matter that he owed all his knowledge of the house garden and glebe extent of the parish condition of the land and rate of the tithes to Elinor herself who had heard so much of it from Colonel Brandon and heard it with so much attention as to be entirely mistress of the subject one question after this only remained undecided between them one difficulty only was to be overcome they were brought together by mutual affection with the warmest approbation of their real friends their intimate knowledge of each other seemed to make their happiness certain and they only wanted something to live upon Edward had 2,000 pounds and Elinor one which with delaford living was all that they could call their own for it was impossible that miss - what should advance anything and they were neither of them quite enough in love to think that 350 pounds a year would supply them with the comforts of life Edward was not entirely without hopes of some favorable change in his mother towards him and on that he rested for the residue of their income but Elinor had no such dependence for since Edward would still be unable to marry miss Morton and his choosing herself had been spoken of in mrs. ferrars's flattering language as only a lesser evil than his choosing Lucy Steele she feared that Roberts offense would serve no other purpose than to enrich fanny about four days after Edwards arrival Colonel Brandon appeared to complete mrs. Dashwood's satisfaction and to give her the dignity of having for the first time since her living at Barton Moore company with her than her house would hold edward was allowed to retain the privilege of first comer and Colonel Brandon therefore walked every night to his old quarters at the park from whence he usually returned in the morning early enough to interrupt the lovers first tete-a-tete before breakfast a three weeks residence at delaford where in his evening hours at least he had little to do but to calculate the disproportion between 36 and 17 brought him to Barton in a temper of mind which needed all the improvement in Marianne's looks all the kindness of her welcome and all the encouragement of her mother's language to make it cheerful among such friends however and such flattery he did revive no rumor of Lucy's marriage had yet reached him he knew nothing of what had passed and the first hours of his visit were consequently spent in hearing and in wandering everything was explained to him by mrs. Dashwood and he found fresh reason to rejoice in what he had done for mr. Ferris since eventually had promoted the interest of Elinor it would be needless to say that the gentleman advanced in the good opinion of each other as they advanced in each other's acquaintance for it could not be otherwise their resemblance in good principles and good sense in disposition and manner of thinking would probably have been sufficient to unite them in friendship without any other attraction but their being in love with two sisters and two sisters fond of each other made that mutual regard inevitable and immediate which might otherwise have waited the effect of time and judgment the letters from town which a few days before would have made every nerve in Elinor's body thrill with transport now arrived to be read with less emotion than mirth mrs. Jennings wrote to tell the wonderful tale to vent her honest indignation against the jilting girl and pour forth her compassion towards poor mr. Edward who she was sure had quite doted upon the worthless hussy and was now by all accounts almost brokenhearted at Oxford I do think she continued nothing was ever carried on so sly for it was but two days before Lucy called and sat a couple of hours with me not a soul suspected anything of the matter not even Nancy who poor soul came crying to me the day after in a great fright for fear of mrs. Ferrars as well as not knowing how to get to Plymouth but Lucy it seems burrowed or her money before she went off to be married on purpose we supposed to make a show with and poor Nancy had not seven shillings in the world so I was very glad to give her five guineas to take her down to Exeter where she thinks of staying three or four weeks with mrs. Burges in hopes as I tell her to fall in with a doctor again and I must say that Lucy's crossed us not to take them along with them in the shades as worse than all poor mr. Edward I cannot get him out of my head but you must send him to Barton and Miss Marianne must tried to comfort him mr. Dashwood's strains were more solemn mrs. Ferrars was the most unfortunate of women poor Fanny had suffered Agony's of sensibility and he considered the resistance of each under such a blow with grateful Wonder Roberts offense was unpardonable but Lucy's was infinitely worse neither of them were ever again to be mentioned to mrs. Phares and even if she might hereafter be induced to forgive her son his wife should never be acknowledged as her daughter nor be permitted to appear in her presence the secrecy with which everything had been carried on between them was rationally treated as enormous ly heightening the crime because had any suspicion of it occurred to the others proper measures would have been taken to prevent the marriage and he called on Elinor to join with him in regretting that Lucy's engagement with Edward had not rather been fulfilled then that she should thus be the means of spreading misery farther in the family he thus continued mrs. Ferris has never yet mentioned Edwards name which does not surprise us but to our great astonishment not a line has been received from him on the occasion perhaps however he is kept silent by his fear of offending and I shall therefore give him a hint by a line to Oxford that his sister and I both think a letter of proper submission from him that dressed perhaps to Fanny and by her shown to her mother might not be taken a miss for we all know the tenderness of mrs. Ferrars heart and that she wishes for nothing so much as to be on good terms with her children this paragraph was of some importance to the prospects and conduct of Edward it determined him to attempt to reconciliation though not exactly in the manner pointed out by their brother and sister a letter of proper submission repeated he would they have me make my mother's pardon for Roberts ingratitude to her and breach of honour to me I can make no submission I'm girl neither the humble nor penitent wear what has passed I'm grown very happy but there would not interest I know if nose that is proper for me to make you may certainly ask to be forgiven said Eleanor because you have offended and I think you might now venture so fast to profess some concern for having ever formed the engagement which drew on you your mother's anger he agreed that he made and when she has forgiven you perhaps a little humility may be convenient while acknowledging a second engagement almost as imprudent in her eyes as the first he had nothing to urge against it but still resisted the idea of a letter of proper submission and therefore to make it easier to him as he declared a much greater willingness to make mean concessions by word of mouth than on paper it was resolved that instead of writing to Fanny he should go to London and personally entreat her good offices in his favor and if they really do interest themselves said Marianne in her new character of candor in bringing about a reconciliation I shall think that even John and Fanny are not entirely without merit after a visit on Colonel Brandon's side of only three or four days the two gentlemen quitted Barton together they were to go immediately to delaford that Edward might have some personal knowledge of his future home and assist his patron and friend in deciding on what improvements were needed to it and from thence after staying there a couple of nights he was to proceed on his journey to town end of chapter 49 after fifty of Sense and Sensibility this LibriVox recording is in the public domain Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen chapter fifty after a proper resistance on the part of mrs. Farris just so violent and so steady as to preserve her from that reproach which she always seemed fearful of incurring the reproach of being too amiable Edward was admitted to her presence and pronounced to be again her son her family had of late been exceedingly fluctuating for many years of her life she had had two sons but the crime and annihilation of Edward a few weeks ago had robbed her of one the similar annihilation of Robert had left her for a fortnight without any and now by the resuscitation of Edward she had won again in spite of his being allowed once more to live however he did not feel the continuance of his existence secured till he had revealed his present engagement for the publication of that circumstance he feared might give a sudden turn to his constitution and carry him off as rapidly as before with apprehensive caution therefore it was revealed and he was listened to with unexpected calmness mrs. Ferrars at first reasonably endeavoured to dissuade him from marrying Miss Dashwood by every argument in her power told him that in Miss Morton he would have a woman of higher rank and larger fortune and enforced the assertion by observing that Miss Morton was the daughter of a nobleman with 30,000 pounds while Miss Dashwood was only the daughter of a private gentleman with no more than three but when she found that though perfectly admitting the truth of her representation he was by no means inclined to be guided by it she judged it wisest from the experience of the past to submit and therefore after such an ungracious delay as she owed to her own dignity and as served to prevent every suspicion of goodwill she issued her decree of consent to the marriage of Edward and Elinor what she would engage to do towards augmenting their income was next to be considered and here it plainly appeared that the way Edward was now her only son he was by no means her eldest for while Robert was inevitably endowed with a thousand pounds a year not the smallest objection was made against Edwards taking orders for the sake of two hundred and fifty at the utmost nor was anything promised either for the present or in future beyond the ten thousand pounds which had been given with Fanny it was as much however as was desired and more than was expected by Edward and Elinor and mrs. Ferris herself by her shuffling excuses seemed the only person surprised at her not giving more with an income quite sufficient to their wants thus secured to them they had nothing to wait for after Edward was in possession of the living but the readiness of the house to which Colonel Brandon with an eager desire for the accommodation of Elinor was making considerable improvements and after waiting some time for their completion after experiencing as usual a thousand disappointments and delays from the unaccountable dilatoriness of the workmen Elinor as usual broke through the first positive resolution of not marrying till everything was ready and the ceremony took place in Barton Church early in the autumn the first month after their marriage was spent with their friend at the mansion house from whence they could superintend the progress of the parsonage and direct everything as they liked on the spot could choose papers project shrubberies and invent a sweep mrs. Jennings's prophecies though rather jumbled together were chiefly fulfilled for she was able to visit Edward and his wife in their parsonage by Michaelmas and she found in Eleanor and her husband as she really believed one of the happiest couples in the world they had in fact nothing to wish for but the marriage of Colonel Brandon and Marianne and rather better pasturage for their cows they were visited on their first settling by almost all their relations and friends mrs. Ferrars came to inspect the happiness which she was almost ashamed of having authorised and even the Dashwood's were at the expense of a journey from Sussex to do them honor I will not say that I am disappointed my dear sister said John as they were walking together one morning before the gates of delaford house that would be saying too much for certainly you have been one of the most fortunate young women in the world as it is but I confess it would give me great pleasure to call Colonel Brandon brother his property here his place his house everything is in such respectable and excellent condition and his woods I have not seen such timber anywhere in Dorsetshire as there is now standing in delaford hanger and though perhaps marianne may not seem exactly the person to attract him yet I think it would altogether be advisable for you to have them now frequently staying with you for as Colonel Brandon seems a great deal at home nobody can tell what may happen for when people are much thrown together and see little of anybody else and it will always be in your power to set her off to advantage and so forth in short you may as well give her a chance you understand me but though mrs. Ferrars did come to see them and always treated them with the make-believe of decent affection they were never insulted by her real favour and preference that was due to the folly of Robert and the cunning of his wife and it was earned by them before many had passed away The Selfish sagacity of the latter which had at first drawn Robert into the scrape was the principal instrument of his deliverance from it for her respectful humility assiduous attentions and endless flatteries as soon as the smallest opening was given for their exercise reconciled mrs. Phares to his choice and re-established him completely in her favour the whole of Lucy's behavior in the affair and the prosperity which crowned it therefore may be held forth as a most encouraging instance of what an earnest an unceasing attention to self-interest however its progress may be apparently obstructed will do in securing every advantage of fortune with no other sacrifice than that of time and conscience when Robert first sought her acquaintance and privately visited her in Bartlett's buildings it was only with the view imputed to him by his brother he merely meant to persuade her to give up the engagement and as there could be nothing to overcome but the affection of both he naturally expected that one or two interviews would settle the matter in that point however and that only he erred for though Lucy soon gave him hopes that his eloquence would convince her in time another visit another conversation was always wanted to produce this conviction some doubts always lingered in her mind when they parted which could only be removed by another half hour's discourse with himself his attendance was by this means secured and the rest followed in course instead of talking of Edward they came gradually to talk only of Robert a subject on which he had always more to say than on any other and in which she soon betrayed an interest even equal to his own and in short it became speedily evident to both that he had entirely supplanted his brother he was proud of his conquest proud of tricking and very proud of marrying privately without his mother's consent what immediately followed is known they passed some months in great happiness at Dawlish for she had many relations and old acquaintances to cut and he drew several plans for magnificent cottages and from thence returning to town procured the forgiveness of mrs. Phares by the simple expedient of asking it which had to lose his instigation was adopted the forgiveness at first indeed as was reasonable comprehended only Robert and Lucy who had old his mother no duty and therefore could have transgressed none still remained some weeks longer unpardonable sin humility of conduct and messages in self condemnation for Roberts offence and gratitude for the unkindness she was treated with procured her in time the haughty notice which overcame her by its graciousness and led soon afterwards by rapid degrees to the highest state of affection and influence Lucy became as necessary to mrs. Phares as either Robert or Fanny and while Edward was never cordially forgiven for having once intended to marry her and Elinor though superior to her in fortune and birth was spoken of as an intruder she was in everything considered and always openly acknowledged to be a favorite child they settled in town received very liberal assistance from mrs. Ferrars were on the best terms imaginable with the Dashwood's and setting aside the jealousies and ill-will continually subsisting between Fanny and Lucy in which their husbands of course took apart as well as the frequent domestic disagreements between Robert and Lucy themselves nothing could exceed the harmony in which they all live together what Edward had done to forfeit the right of eldest son might have puzzled many people to find and what Robert had done to succeed - it might have puzzled them still more it was an arrangement however justified in its effects if not in its cause for nothing ever appeared in Roberts style of living or of talking to give a suspicion of his regretting the extent of his income as either leaving his brother too little or bringing himself too much and if Edward might be judged from the ready discharge of his duties in every particular from an increasing attachment to his wife and his home and from the regular cheerfulness of his spirits he might be supposed no less contented with his lot no less free from every wish of an exchange Elinor's marriage divided her as little from her family as could well be contrived without rendering the cottage at Barton entirely useless for her mother and sisters spent much more than half their time with her mrs. Dashwood was acting on motives of policy as well as pleasure in the frequency of her visits at delaford for her wish of bringing Marianne and Colonel Brandon together was hardly less earnest though rather more liberal than what John had expressed it was now her darling object precious as was the company of her daughter to her she desired nothing so much as to give up its constant enjoyment to her valued friend and to see Marianne settled at the mansion house was equally the wish of Edward and Elinor they each felt his sorrows and their own obligations and Marianne by general consent was to be the reward of all with such a confederacy against her with a knowledge so intimate of his goodness with a conviction of his fond attachment to herself which at last though long after it was observable to everybody else burst on her what could she do Marianne Dashwood was born to an extraordinary fate she was born to discover the falsehood of her own opinions and to counteract by her conduct her most favorite Maxim's she was born to overcome an affection formed so late in life as at seventeen and with no sentiment superior to strong esteem and lively friendship voluntarily to give her hand to another and that other a man who had suffered no less than herself under the event of a former attachment whom two years before she had considered too old to be married and who still sought the constitutional safeguard of a flannel waistcoat but so it was instead of falling a sacrifice to an irresistible passion as once she had fondly flattered herself with expecting instead of remaining even forever with her mother and finding her only pleasures in retirement and study as afterwards in her more calm and sober judgment she had determined on she found herself at 19 submitting to new attachments entering on new duties placed in a new home a wife the mistress of a family and the patroness of a village Colonel Brandon was now as happy as all those who best loved him believed he deserved to be in Marianne he was consoled for every past affliction her regard and her society restored his mind to animation and his spirits to cheerfulness and that Marianne found her own happiness in forming his was equally the persuasion and delight of each observing friend Marianne could never love by halves and her whole heart became in time as much devoted to her husband as it had once being to Willoughby Willoughby could not hear of her marriage without a pang and his punishment was soon afterwards complete in the voluntary forgiveness of mrs. Smith who by stating his marriage with a woman of character as the source of her clemency gave him reason for believing that had he behaved with honour towards Marianne he might at once have been happy and rich at his repentance of misconduct which thus brought its own punishment was sincere need not be doubted nor that he long thought of Colonel Brandon with envy and of Marianne with regret but that he was forever inconsolable that he fled from society or contracted an habitual gloom of temper or died of a broken heart must not be depended on for he did neither he lived to exert and frequently to enjoy himself his wife was not always out of humour nor his home always uncomfortable and in his breed of horses and dogs and in sporting of every kind he found no inconsiderable degree of domestic Felicity for Marianne however in spite of his incivility in surviving her loss he always retained that decided regard which interested him in everything that befell her and made her his secret standard of perfection in woman and many arising Beauty would be slighted by him in after days as bearing no comparison with mrs. Brandon mrs. Dashwood was prudent enough to remain at the cottage without attempting a removal to delaford and fortunately for Sir John and mrs. Jennings when Marianne was taken from them Margaret had reached an age highly suitable for dancing and not very ineligible for being supposed to have a lover between Barton and delaford there was that constant communication which strong family affection would naturally dictate and among the merits and the happiness of Elinor and Marianne let it not be ranked as the least considerable that those sisters and living almost within sight of each other they could live without disagreement between themselves or producing coolness between their husbands end of chapter 50 end of Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen | Priceless Audiobooks | UCly1zcKPGzGW9wZMCZodWOA | 2018-08-06 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 13,326 | 73,572 |
HmOxDWXb-d8 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmOxDWXb-d8 | AGL All Members Call: Rep. James Grant Discusses Florida Digital Service | and so we'll have this recording for playback for a member so but we're very excited to have the representative from Florida to talk about the creation of the Florida digital services and as I understand it this is this is something that's been in the making for quite some years so representative grant thank you for joining us today for sure thanks for having me I really really appreciate it appreciate what y'all do and look forward to conversation yeah absolutely so we're particularly interested in in digital services you know government digital services so I know that a number of states are doing this they're in various stages with the creation of their own state digital services I don't see in California is working on some form of this we also have state of Georgia New York just made an announcement recently so we're really interested to hear your story so maybe we could just start off with some background you know how did how did you get here you know where did this all start for you yeah so maybe just to get a little bit of my personal background cuz I think that helps inform it a little bit but I'm a recovering lawyer that's about nine years sober from the practice of law 2010 I got elected to the Florida Legislature for those of you who aren't aware we're a part-time legislature up here we have five to six committee weeks depending on the session over the year and then uh nine weeks get a session if we get out on time and so we're about 15 16 weeks formally in Tallahassee every year and then of course if you've got chairmanships and you've got leadership responsibilities that tends to escalate whether it's in South here around the state around the country 2011 co-founded a health care startup with a couple other folks one homes actually at USGS right now we went on a pretty amazing journey growing from Florida about 400 of us we raised I think north of well not I think we raised north of 65 million in venture had had had really kind of transformed health care tech in a really good way and then went through a hostile takeover that's kind of almost too much to believe if you're the screenplay writers it Valliere billions and so that went down in June of 2017 but from 2011 to 2017 pretty much lived on the front lines of healthcare attack and really starting in a platform play that looked at how do I make a longitudinal record for a patient on behalf of that patient when you think about all the different silos and ecosystems and legacy systems that exist in the healthcare world they're they're pretty emblematic of what we deal with in the traditional government or bureaucracy world and so get to it got to have a lot of fun a lot of challenges a lot of experiences but one thing Zyra stress to people when when I kind of explain public policy and tech and what my life is like is what I call the innovation dichotomy in the private sector my the simple rule is innovate or die right if we're not running fast enough and delivering value fast enough somebody else will and will become obsolete or irrelevant the moment I walk into the Capitol or I walk into my committee rooms or my chairmanship the rule was innovate and they will all try and kill you and and so there is this dichotomy kind of back and forth and and so the way we really got to here and I don't want to go too far because I hate to to kind of ramble or lecture at you but but really the way this year's legislation came to be was kind of the product of a lot of failure and a lot of different attempts to try and get to a place where we promulgated for the first time meaningful data governance in the state of Florida or meaningful enterprise architecture or set the frameworks for interoperability across silos and we tried just about every way we possibly could and and then we kind of had an aha moment a couple years ago that set the stage for some of the successes that really put us in a position this year to have a what I truly believe will be a transformative win for for us here in the state of Florida and it it's a longer story than that I'm happy to take any questions but but yeah I mean it's a quite frankly a byproduct of a lot of failed attempts to finally figure out what it took to get it done sure so we'll definitely thank you for that we're definitely going to have questions for you I'm going to open it up to the group for questions in just a little bit so please think of questions you might have for the representative so but just to follow up on what you were just talking about you know I there were attempts I read in news stories that this is maybe the third time that this this is the you know reorganization of the Florida IT department has been attempted you know I think this group would like to hear more about that struggle you know what is what was dysfunctional about the old way of doing it and you know how is how is digital a digital service going to resolve that like what are some of the classic differences between the old model in the new model yeah I think it's a great question I think there's a handful of things number one the backing of the executive is critical in this infrastructure and in this ecosystem so if you don't have a governor who cares and and to put a little bit of context to that the governor's appointing all of the different secretaries or executive directors to run agencies if the governor is not going to care about interoperability and digital policy then you're really not going to be able to do anything because you're you're you're going to find yourself with with resistors at the top of those agencies who don't necessarily want to have problems or opportunities for innovation to be brought to light they really don't want to rock the boat and and so without a strong executive nothing happens and and and what I would stress more than anything that the biggest game-changer and how we got to to the passage this year is a governor who finally cares you know most of my efforts were with a previous administration that that quite frankly just didn't really care about this policy area governor Sanders does and and he put a lot of resources and a lot of team behind us to work with us and so I think that's number one I think number two and this is something that I don't think it's talked about enough in the conversations I've had following the legislation but one of our key principles was was to make sure that the understanding the definition of success was at the forefront right so that everybody that looked at the digital service understood what their job is and what it is not and and that touches on I think when you say what's different about you know previous IT one of the things I was adamant about it's just kind of like it wasn't thought about nobody they highlighted it it wasn't really an asset or a liability when we work in the bill but we maintain the Division of Telecom at the division at the Department of Management Services and the reason I was so adamant about doing that is that I think in an ecosystem where none of my colleagues know what an API is or what data governance means or Identity Management or any other kind of rudimentary concepts that we build on as soon as you say there's a there's an IT department they start thinking that's where they get their password reset or that's where they get their phone or their desktop or their laptop reordered or you know whatever that that IT Help Desk kind of functionality is and so one of the things that I was adamant about and that we were able to get done is to separate out what I kind of colloquially referred to as the IT Help Desk and leave that over there and to protect the digital service from all of that kind of stuff and and then to clearly define what the digital services responsibilities are I was part of setting up the agency for state technology the Appropriations chair at the time I think 2011 or 2012 came to me this 2012-2013 came to me and said hey we really want to set this thing up and this was gonna be our fourth tech agency and one of the mistakes I'm kind of naively and immaturely made at the time was not realizing that we need to give a mission statement and what you saw the agency for state technology here in Florida become with a data center management company on a cost recovery basis and I think we can probably stop there I'm happy to do some excellent explaining but I'm assuming your group probably understand how metastatic the cancer of cost recovery is and how different running a data center is from from performing digital services and then the last thing I'd say is if we if we've gotten it right the way I would maybe the way I would kind of tangibly talk about the success is if any of y'all are following what's going on here in Florida we've had a pretty big disaster when it comes to the unemployment compensation website over the last month it quite frankly and talking to some some folks at the digital service and how the USGS got set up and kind of running parallel to the healthcare gov failures at the federal level when you have an executive who has a major policy issue or a major policy liability and the execution doesn't go right the policy fails and so what does it look like for or an elite team of tech talent that encompasses engineers both front and back in design and UX folks and project management project lead folks to come in and to really be able to solve problems and ironically it's not it's not necessarily being advertised but that the head of department of management services Jonathan Saturday is just a rock star has been leveraging and working with USPS in the midst of this crisis and unsurprisingly a lot of the breakthroughs came where the state of Florida and USPS started working together to kind of start that fire fighting so I think that the major difference is if I could sum there is a we have given it a clear purpose B we've kept that purpose out of the traditional IT Help Desk world and C set the stage with an executive who cares and really looking at how to deliver tangible solutions that people can understand okay all right so you you talked about the traditional IT parking separated out a lot of what we talk about it AGL has to do with procurement because it seems like everything starts there in terms of you know any sort of consulting services or you know anything above and beyond what the the state agency or the payment agency doesn't do them for themselves it all starts with the procurement and is there can you talk about that I mean is there has there been a shift in your strategy and has that had anything to do with the change or struggles that you've had yeah so I'll kind of if you'll give me a little bit of latitude I'll answer a little bit of a different question and kind of come to that because procurement reform is unquestionably a major component I think one of the biggest challenges in maturing through the process and figuring out how to take on something as monumental that we're talking about with as many resistors or promote dragons as I call them that are the the kind of a horse and buggy caucus or the the fiefdom protectors that don't want you coming into their castle as much of that is going on procurement reform is is it's kind of fundamentally there and so figuring out how to how to get as much meaningful and irreversible progress as possible what I find interesting is you know most of the time we would say that when a government agency is created or a government program is created it's created in perpetuity and while that rule is almost always true one of the things in the state of Florida as you mentioned we have killed I think for date technology officers already so we have a history and a precedent of killing them where people don't understand them and don't don't get the value so so what we really really really focused on this year was how much significant meaningful irreversible progress can we get and and I kind of think of that in the category of a Trojan horse sometimes or metaphorically some gas under the door nobody sees the gas coming in until they're unconscious and at that point it's too late I don't need my colleagues or the agency heads to understand how an API works or what an API is I don't need them to understand what a data dictionary is I don't need them to understand what a data catalog is or when we think about Identity Management and and and those kinds of solutions what I need them to understand is I want this thing and that's all I need understand and and the thing that we use oh I'll say it this way to a user sometimes of speeches on this topic but but I have come to learn that tech policy is a lot like a backbone nobody buys it without glitter and there's no real functionality there's no reason that a basket board has to have glitter but if you can find anyone that's without glitter I'll buy you a basket boat right Tech policy kind of the same thing the functionality of the policy is all there but what people care about is the glitter so the digital driver's license is what we use to really get buy-in we had a lot of people who started to understand hey it would be a great thing as a as a business traveler or how I could produce I identification card whether it was a driver's license a hunting and fishing license a voter registration go down the list of all of those things if I can manifest identity with one of those things people start to understand the value and they go hey that's a great thing I don't necessarily need them to understand that in order to do that I've got to have a credential service provider and I and and kind of go through all of that I give you that backdrop to say that some of the most meaningful procurement reform we did and it's on the kind of a back end I think we have a lot more work to do so let me give you that caveat I think procurement form we have a ton left to do but I think for those of you who deal in the government space you'll appreciate how difficult this this probably was we created the first ever revenue share paid by the drink situation in the state of Florida with the digital driver's license so one of the things I was adamant about when we were working on that procurement with the agency involved was to say I'm not interested in just a secure representation of a driver's license showing up on a phone we're not going to go procure one vendor who turns around and build the enterprise and the and the consumer side so that if you get pulled over on the side of the road make invalidate a driver's license is not the product here identity is the product a driver's license is a manifestation of that product and so what we've done is slowed down the time to which we'll get a driver's license but I'm ok with that because we're doing it the right way we're going to procure a credential service provider and there will likely be one credential service provider in the state of Florida there are scenarios where there can be multiple but let's just say there's one that credential service provider then has to contract with qualified entities those qualified entities having signed a Terms of Service and Privacy Policy and contracting with the state now have the ability to ping that credential service provider to validate identity for the for the purpose of of what they're trying to do so that could be everything from remotely closing a mortgage I worked on and we finally got done electronic notarization being legal in the state of Florida and electronic wills when we think about digital transactions I have to first start with Identity Management to say is this person or is this thing who they say it is and and that then gets us to the place where we have to explain to people that identity management isn't just a person and I had to explain to the CIO of the agency involved that identity management it's not just my driver's license it's not just a person it's an application it's an organization it's a device as well and so I say all that to say one of the Trojan horses is to pay by the drink side of the credential service provider and really inverting why procurement of software and data is so broken and government in my opinion the software is never done ever data never done and yet we continue to procure it like it is from from big vendors who have the revenue to kind of run out the sales cycle rather than saying hey I've got a problem I can quantify the cost of goods sold or I can quantify the metric that you're either generating revenue for me or saving revenue if you so I'm gonna pay you every time you bring me one of those things because it's valuable and and so really getting into the world of a revenue share and I pay by the drink was actually the hardest part of getting the digital driver's license Pat but I would say that that's probably the most meaningful procurement reform we've done to date I think you will see in the next year to some agile procurement reforms move in here and the governor and myself are both is his team that kind of runs a silo we're all bought into the procurement reforms in that space to end some of the craziness that happens because at the end of the day if you look at what happens with our unemployment compensation website right now nobody cares that it was ten years ago procured nobody cares who made the decision people just care that we can't fundamentally process claims right now and nobody really had an idea until until the Kovach crisis hit we had the the obvious number of unemployment claims coming in okay all right thank you so just a shift the conversation just a little bit and and after this question I'm going to see if anyone in the group wants to you know ask the question but you mentioned earlier a partnership with USGS I know in your legislation it actually spells it out it says that it's modeled in some way after a u.s. digital service you know this new Florida digital service I was wondering if you could talk about the the you know the relationship there like in terms of you know working with the federal government how how has that gone and you know any details about you know your your modeling after what they did yes I saw I was trying to do as much as possible on paper statutory to give us the flexibility that to adopt or not adopt as much as possible and when I say to adopt or not adopt there's obviously things that are applicable at the federal level there's things that in conversations with us DSL amor folks at USPS that they would say man I wish we didn't have this and so trying to learn the lessons from from USPS and kind of what worked and what did avoid the landmines that have already been hit and not adopt those and then simultaneously be able to have the flexibility to adopt as much as possible and make it work so you know it's technically an informal relationship I'll say it's been really really cool to see you know I guess there was an email that went out through a couple of the USPS channels that said hey you know we're seeing Flores doing this does anybody know and because I have a former co-founder there she said hey look I can make some introductions and stuff I've actually had the opportunity to have a number of conversations with us the esalaam and existing folks there and it's just been really really cool to see how much people are passionate about this and refreshing and the reason I say that is I think if any of y'all have kind of walked the halls or participated in the advocacy space it's a pretty lonely fight on this front nobody really cares about it you know I mentioned the unemployment compensation situation but I'll give I'll give you another one I'm sure you all are familiar with what happened in parks on Valentine's Day a couple years ago if you really dug into that fact pattern you'd realize that it is it is the most gross failure of a lacking of interoperability that you've ever seen and so put all your politics aside or what you think the solution is the reality is that was a fundamental failure on the interoperability front and in the legislation that was passed coming out of it we required interoperability but because we had no real what I would say the digital service to make it happen we sit here year and a half later and no real progress has been made on the interoperability requirements of that if we're not willing to put our kids and teachers and educational facilities safety as a priority and make sure that we get that policy implemented to ensure that interoperability has happened and I don't I don't know what we're doing I can give you a laundry list the state has put sexual predators and foster children together because FDLE and and DCF be the two agencies dealing with the sex offender registry and then in foster parents can't communicate and pain and say look this address is a bad address that's a that's a week-long hackathon project for some talented folks that's assault and so I think in that regard it has been really lonely in the sense that nobody has really wanted to work on those things and then crises come up and people kind of talk about it for a minute we get the policy put in place and it never really gets executed so it has been like a 180 and this really refreshing thing for people to come out of the woodwork hey like we really care about what you're working on we want to see to succeed just USPS folks that live in Florida right that's a look I care about Florida because and so that's that's actually been really cool and almost kind of surreal because for like I said for a decade it's kind of just been a couple of us trying to make this happen all right thank you okay group so who wants to ask the representative a question who's that first I'm happy to her usual please do dad thank you cool thanks Ann and GW thanks so much for joining this is it's awesome to hear from you and uh my background briefly I was a former Contracting Officer digital service advisor at Sun for medicare/medicaid services since spent about seven and a half years there and I work with a for a small veteran owned digital service company called agile six and also am the president of a digital services coalition it's kind of like commercial reciprocation to you STS and we do a lot of work teaming with AGL on similar initiatives for my experience you know a successful digital transformation like culture right I mean it's all about culture and mindset I mean the technology of course is important there you had mentioned earlier that governor of DeSantis is like you know taking this pretty seriously and I think understands the value there knowing that culture the importance of kind of coming from the top down and kind of setting that tone is there anything you can kind of speak to why you're you know you're maybe optimistic that this one will stick you know you said I think there was four other offices that were killed in various stages but would like to just here kind of hear anything else you have in that area yeah yeah so for sure so so well it's well it's kind of frustrating that we've killed for what's interesting is that if you look backwards at the floor they all had kind of different symptoms disease states and assets so I don't know that we've ever had an executive who cared more about this stuff than Jeb JEB would would literally tell people I want to dashboard on my desk I want to know everything in this enterprise that exists I want to know the numbers I think the reality is if we look backwards at the tech that that Jeb had access to at that time right you probably didn't have the ability to develop let's just call kind of the simple data call across different agencies right so not nearly that the technical capability to keep up with the executives passion and then you kind of watch over the next few where that changes charlie didn't care about this stuff and governor scott didn't care about this stuff they would say they did right if something came up but but show me your behavior and I'll tell you what you care about right governor De Santis unquestionably and and the best way I can maybe articulate it for those of us familiar in the government spaces his head of legislative stuff had a call with all of the agency heads and legislative affairs directors and said if y'all are messing with this bill know that there's going to be major problems and serious consequences that's not normal right the legislature filing something to create a digital service that it's quite frankly stepping on the toes of the executive at the executive not bought in except in this case the executive is absolutely bought in to the point that they're telling their other agencies you know you're going to play ball on this so I think that's I think that's one part of it I think the second part and I actually had a conversation it came up with somebody coming out of of USBs earlier in the week but kind of she was sharing a little bit about the experience with healthcare.gov going down and President Obama kind of having this moment of gosh I put my name on this thing and I want this policy to work and we can't get a website to work like help me understand what's going on there I think I think any executive who has a major moment where software is the failure it crystallizes right so in some regards I think we kind of almost have the perfect storm Governor DeSantis put a lot of resources and partnership into making the bill happen when we didn't even know what Cove it was right so this goes back to last July we start working on this so so clearly his behavior indicates in the administration behavior indicates they cared about it prior to the Kovan situation I think where the coding situation matters is now he has a bit of an anvil around the administration in the fact that that we can't process unemployment claims with the system this has been fundamentally incapable of keeping up a volume and so I think when you take those two together you get a perfect storm where somebody is already bought in and then they get validated and reinforced by saying hey I never want to see that happen again how do I prevent that and and and and so I think there is reason to be really optimistic in that regard thank you you know you were talking about making sure you had the executive support and also you wanted people around you just to be cared about the product and product vision and what the ultimate goal was what were some of the methods though modern methods whether it was research or anything to do with design that you did have to find some early adopters of within the organization so great question and great to meet you what I would I actually went like super old-school here and I have a theory when it comes to the legislative space and it's a couple of rules that I it's the same way I lobby my own bills and do vote counts when I'm going to committee there's only two types of legislators or two types of people in this process there are people who know what they want to be called and people who know what they want to get done and there's no currency in this process there's no quantitative metric if I'm if I'm managing a baseball team I can set my batting order by and large based on on-base percentages and batting averages and strikeouts and there are metrics that my whole locker room understand the reason you're not hitting leadoff is because you can't get on base for flip and into those metrics or if I think about it in the organizational contact a sales sales chief that it's just a frustrating person deal with but continually produces or ahead of marketing and customer acquisition costs and all of those those metrics that we can actually govern by we don't have those in this place this is a purely qualitative process so without a currency without a metric and then with two different types of people I have found that there's two currencies accepted one is a coin that has fear and hope on each side right so I'm either scaring you or giving you optimism and that's why you join me and the other is one that has substance and sexual honesty and and unfortunately I don't know that the American political process in any arena has enough of the latter but it's really identifying who those people are and so in this case that's where I touch on the digital driver's license being such a game-changer if you had so many people who wanted a digital driver's license for one reason or another some of them wanted to go campaign on it and tell their constituents that hey I helped make that happen other people saw the value of it in the commercial context or whatever it may be and then two to four people in the entire building understood the substance of what we were talking about and so it's not to say that I didn't want people and I don't want to sound shadier that I was trying to hide the ball we obviously lay it all out on paper I just I'm okay if they don't understand that as long as they're bought into the objective I don't need them to understand the principles of data governance I just need them to agree that hey wouldn't it be great if we had a data dictionary you know what we had where we keep it what we call it and who has access to it so that then maybe we can start talking about cybersecurity policy those kinds of things does that make sense I also actually I should I should send this to y'all real quick sorry Bo I think we're Shelly if I got the name right Shelly I should actually send it to you cuz the the governor's office has kept it I lied to you I went even more old-school I forgot to add this detail I started to take I so I started taking my iPad and drawing pictures and I was literally taking my iPad with with diagrams that I had I don't even that diagrams is not even a nice enough words like kindergarten level stick figure showing how data would move across the enterprise and what it looks like but I'd literally turn my iPad into a coloring book and started taking that to meeting yep yep I wish I had the budget for a great designer onto that okay next question Joyce yeah yes yes thank you good afternoon Rick from rainy Maryland once you wanted to ask are you have you heard of a TBM or technology business management and are you implementing that into what you're doing as far as having a clear line of sight from ideation all the way through to production the federal government has has required that all the federal government agencies now put in TBM which is the collaborative framework that has businesses aligned with their IT components and I was wondering if you all are looking at that starting to look at that have you started building the framework because I think that that so and that actually came out of the failure of healthcare.gov and because there was no visibility and nobody knew what everybody was spending and they really had not plugged in the Christmas lights before they put it on the tree and so so that's a question that I'd like to know yeah it's a great question Joyce and I appreciate it the answer to one of your questions are we looking at it is yes I think for the what are we doing with it is a little bit premature so I give the governor a lot of credit in this regard we did not have a we have a state CIO by statute as soon as we started talking about the the creation of the digital service the governor's office very wisely realized that the leader of the then-existing division for state technology which was really just the data center and kind of the the old broken stuff is a very different leaders and somebody who would leave the digital service and so they they kind of went on a freeze to say we're not going to add somebody to Windows it's going to pass and then as soon as of course session gets done and we get this passed at the end of session we enter into the kind of the coronal world so I do hope that we find out here in the next you know month or two would be we would be nice to know who's going to be leading our state CIO will be responsible for the digital service that is their job nothing else they will lead the digital service and that was intentional in some of the reforms to give that that individual and that team that mission and and so yes I from a legislative and policy perspective and looking at a number of things on that front some super rudimentary but we don't even actually have access to a testing environment here in the state of Florida all right so you know right so see so so we go spend a whole bunch of money on a massive build and we don't even have a testing product all right affecting environment that we've that we've licensed or procured or I don't want us to build it but but I mean we don't own it and we don't we'll contract for it so we're we're so far behind that in some regards I think we're ahead which is I think the encouraging part that we have a little bit of a blank canvas to work with here it's absolutely something we're looking at Joyce I think you're spot-on to ensure that the transparency and oversight both on the kind of a project basis and the spend basis is super important we're not doing it the most intelligent way I think as we start to see the digital service built out and and what I would intend to file next year as legislation I think you'll start to see more implementation than kind of architecture design this year was largely architecture and design and then the and the last thing I've done it you know in order to get something passed this year I really you know I boiled down from about what I think might be a five or six year run that runway excuse me or roadmap of policy and just understanding again what's what's the most meaningful irreversible change we can make this year and build on it year by year by year understanding that it's not impressive to those of us in the private sector but it's monumental in the in the bureaucratic space I would in closing I would recommend a couple of things number one is I would say you know Google TBM Council I think they have a wealth of information on how you can you know get involved in TBM I have TBM as a part of your framework as you're building this this architecture number two is an organization out of California but they are fantastic it's called it literally it's got what it's about what that's not that's the website and I think they will find a lot of great information there so that's thank you very much that was very helpful No thank you George I appreciate I was I was taking notes while you were talking to so I have another question just follow up on a couple of things that you were talking about earlier you mentioned the governor's legislative representative putting out some edict saying don't mess with this and I find that really fascinating I'm curious how the rest of the executive branch who stand to lose a little bit of turf in that situation you know who might be giving up part of their responsibilities and their IT program to serve their own individual agency whatever it might be you know the other cabinet secretaries I was wondering if you can if you could talk about that like that that resistance what did that look like and then also the new CIO who's going to come in and to that line what advice do you have for that new CIO ah man two questions there so all right the first one I think I'll give you the you know you can take the boy out of the practice of law but you can't take the law out of them I'll give you the it depends answer there when you ask about you know what it means to the different secretaries and the reason I say that is I think you have some that will very much welcome that our Commissioner of Education is one of my best friends and a really bright guy but he's one of the first people to say you know when he when he got hired he he oversees one of the biggest agencies in the state and he told all of his team he said I want to know every skeleton there is in the closet bring it to me now if you bring me the biggest problem in the world we're fine if I find out that you knew about a problem and you hid it because you didn't want to tell me about we're gonna have major problems that's not always that's not always the norm right so I think it does take leaders that are that are courageous and willing to take risk and be innovative fortunately this governor has done a pretty good job of appointing agency secretaries that by and large have a pretty competent skillset and you know we at least have a critical mass where they would welcome the help rather than just putting up the the kind of rolling up the the drawbridge to make you cross the moat yep I can hear you now can you hear me yeah where'd you lose me I'm sorry you I think you finished that you answered the first question got it okay so yes I think it just depends right like if you've got people who recognize that that help is on the way then they're not really Sutton but I also think it's one of the premises and actually somebody at USGS kind of laid this out as one of the principles of you know if we screw up we get the blame if we win you get the credit and I and I think that's important when you're trying to come in and kind of build friends and Pingo the second question remind me sorry because I suspected when we got dropped that's oh well they do incoming CIL who's gonna tell ya yes I don't know that I think I think what I would tell it's been interesting to see our last few CIOs we've had I'll take the last two because they kind of run a pretty good range one more of a sales guy that was probably more comfortable speaking at a podium and committee but not necessarily technical or a tactician and there were some struggles that came alongside that the next was it was an absolute tactician that I think is a really bright guy high but just wasn't natural at the podium didn't really understand the legislative process I think the real challenge is that in the tech community we hear CIO and we kind of gristle a little bit and say oh great you know another government thinking they know what to do and that kind of thing one of the choices we had to make this year was was not messing with the title that was something that people were kind of getting fussy about so I just I left it instead I you know at the end of the day I'm not really all that worried about the title as much as I am just getting the policy right what I would tell the new CIO is that it's just as important to understand the legislative and political process as it is the technical process you have to be able to navigate both because if you've only got one you've got nothing in my experience here you can have all the technical abilities in the world but if you can't get the buy-in you're not going to get the policy and you can simultaneously have all of the technical ability excuse me all of the policy but if you can't execute on it you're never going to be trusted again all right okay so if I could chime in this is so come on yes please do I great to have a colleague from Florida talking about this I'm looking at Miami uncle my question is sir take off of what Bill was asking that is what kind of a team would you like to see in place to make it through we're talking about the positive outcomes and also the CIO but you would need an entire team to run this yes sir I'm a big I'm a big fan of what I kind of called a platoon model and that platoon model has different roles inside of it but but basically each unit has the ability to execute on projects right so whether they're they're dedicated to different policy silos whether they're dedicated to different agencies whatever that may look like but each unit having the totality of the schools that the skillset necessary such that if there's a fire to be put out one or more platoons can be designated to go put that fire out and personally I think you know as I've had some of the conversations that probably a little bit more opinionated on it then I had been previously in the sense that I've talked to some folks at USD s who have kind of shared the good bad and ugly butt but my original thought is that I would certainly advise the CIO to make sure that each of those platoons have the ability to handle project management and transparency components to be on budget and on time I think the second thing is having the engineering talent and to me that means both the back end and but also the front end UX and UI stuff because I think I think that matters and I think you look at also having people that have the ability to figure out how to kind of break through the bureaucratic mess and and that's not always easy in this space and people won't necessarily tell you that they're that they are your opponent or that they are trying to kill your bill or even why if you can figure out us as them so I think that's where you kind of get to a combination of product and development and design but also navigation and I think if you have those components you have the beginnings of a platoon that you can scale to the different sizes to solve different problems but I guess the thing I would stress is you know if you all have seen models work and you have suggestions I guess I'd be as much interested in spending an hour asking y'all some questions as answered questions because you've lived it kind of in a different way and I guess the best way I can put it is I put my credibility on the line before the digital services gonna work so I'd kind of like to see it work rather than looking like an idiot well this is really cool seeing that this is coming out of Florida well thank you appreciate it okay other questions with regards to you know a lot of state where where they just don't have budget you know roll out maybe large IT programs you were talking about not having multiple environments to do proper development and testing before you roll something out so how did you decide you know right how did you prioritize your budget for that knowing that you did like an agile procurement like Bob you know I buy the dream type of thing but how did you high or ties yeah it's a great question Shellie one of the things that to answer this question in a way that gives everybody proper context we have a constitutional requirement here in Florida balance our budget so we cannot debt spent which means that if you're asking for money as a legislator at the zero-sum game if I'm asking for a dollar that the dollar that none of you can have and so it really creates an interesting scenario and and I for one I mean I'm glad that that's in our Constitution I think it's born out to show to be a very good thing for our state we still are one of the few states that have triple-a bond rating which is a big deal when you talk about the cost of money to borrow that said it brings challenges and so it was really important that when we looked at the digital drivers like that it had no fiscal impact right that we created in a way that we actually didn't need budgetary dollars the way I looked at that was to say hey if we can procure the credential service provider on a revenue-sharing basis we don't actually need state money to procure it and simultaneously every time a data transaction is happening two people are expressing value and the state's getting money and so my vision kind of long-term is that the digital driver's license in the credential service rider become kind of a new form of currency and revenue here in the in the state of Florida that fund growth of other initiatives that might be fixed initiatives the other thing I'd say we typically we rarely if ever have a revenue problem we have a spending problem and that's where I think sometimes the challenges come into place is that you start walking to different agency saying hey I need to do this thing which means you don't get to do this thing and you're taking money from somebody it's not that the administrative costs or the inefficiencies that we're spending on over here are warranted it's just that somebody wants them because it's in their turf and so step one I think is getting the policy changes in place without creating the fiscal impact and then step two is figuring out how to demonstrate the tangible win such that an arbitrator whether that's a speaker a president a senator a representative look at it and say why would I spend a dollar over here if I could spend it over here and I think that's where the tangible results matter so much and I think that's why it's so critical that we get as much done as possible without actually costing money so coming out of this year just to give you kind of a when you think about the tools we'll have we got a data dictionary and data catalog procured well going to be procured but we got it appropriated we have the digital driver's license currently being procured which requires the credential service provider pay by the drink structure and then we got the FDS policy so if you give me a way to do identity management on a data dictionary data catalog and a digital service I can I can do a lot with that so I think that's the problem things that and then the last thing I tell you we've got to get rid of the other two things and this maybe goes to why is this one different or why does this have viability the cost recovery model that I mentioned in the data center we're in the business of outsourced in the data center there's no reason the state of Florida should be running a new defendant or people who do that for a living and do it really really fricking well and so there's no reason for us to be doing that on our own and then secondly getting rid of the cost recovery model if y'all are not familiar with a cost recovery model I think it's a critical part of procurement reform but in essence it's kind of like when you buy a condo in a let's say you know a hundred unit condiment or a thousand unit condominium to make it make it even bigger denim and sycamores woods and Miami thousand unit condominium well if it's all filled like the cam charges and the common area recreation pool all that stuff relatively inexpensive but if ten units are filled it becomes very cost prohibitive and that's what we've done on the data center with the cost recovery model so we've just got to get out of a place where the agencies feel like every time we're coming in cost them money it ought to be a the digital service ought to be an asset that serves the totality of the enterprise and everybody sees as a resource and a problem-solving team rather than a cost driver does that answer your question it comes back to the gas into the door like that what I've learned about tech policy is that you either have to have something really shiny that people want or you have to be able to get enough gas under the door before they realize that it's too late [Laughter] and we are recording too so you'll get the playback all right so well any other questions so I've got a final question another two-part question short-term and long-term what's next for the Florida digital service and you also mentioned a number of years working on this policy package that has you know I think you mentioned like five years a five-year effort so that would be more long-term so short-term and long-term what's next yes I think short-term is turning the architecture into action and figuring out what the team looks like and building that out I think if if I think about what I think the CIO should be doing I think it's year one is probably a lot of surveillance scouting relationship building across the enterprise and simultaneously a whole lot of talent acquisition and figuring out how to bring a truly elite team and figure out how to take this architecture and turn it into action and then show you know tangible win by tangible and intangible win because each of those tangible wins will create a ton of trust across the enterprise and it'll have the phone ringing form agencies saying hey I need help whereas right now I think most would say you know quit knocking on my door I don't need you so I think that's I think that short term long term I I think I'll say what what my dream is in this regard or one of the metrics of success I truly the leads that if the Florida digital digital service or its equivalent was completely optimized that we probably saved fifteen to twenty percent of our state budget meaning we could go find fifteen to twenty percent of our state budget eliminated overnight and no consumer would notice a reduction in service or quality I think we have at least twenty percent of our spend that is that is unaffiliated directly with service delivery or service value or service benefit therefore that together value my dream is that we get to a place so let's say that twenty percent so right now in the state of Florida that would be about nineteen billion dollars just shy nineteen billion dollars if we had twenty two percent back my dream is and what I find fun about this space is that my most progressive colleagues who are rarely agree with on public policy or some of my libertarian colleagues that are probably more towards my bet we all want to see government get better faster cheaper all of us would love to be able to walk onto the floor of the Florida House and debate how to spend nineteen billion dollars a year somebody may say I want tax cuts somebody may say I want to invest in education I want to do universal basic income I you know the proposals would run the gamut but at least we would be talking about the delivery of something tangible rather than just accepting the fact that some hypothetical fifteen to twenty percent of our budget is completely wasted and so a guy that's a dear friend and it's kind of been a mentor to me a nice Chopra in his book innovative state if you haven't read it I always give it a plug because it's a it's a great read in this space I give it to my colleague to kind of help them understand because it's written at a level where people that in the industry are gonna get something out of it and somebody who has no idea what they're what they're reading is gonna get something out of it but he talks about kind of the premise of let's quit talking about making government bigger or smaller and let's just make it smarter and and I think that's really where the the opportunity lies when we think about what what a digital service can do I think it it bears out what a couple of data points one we start to see legislatures around the country discovering new money without raising taxes without raising fees and it's tangible money and they're debating how to spend it I think - you start to see citizens restore their belief that government can provide a competent service somewhere right like if we were to talk to the American public I don't care whether it's the post office or its healthcare.gov or it's our current version with with unemployment that touches republican/democrat every demographic data point element you have touch we've had massive failures to the point that people just no longer trust that government can deliver a competent service or perform its functions competently and so I think where we could where we could start to see that number change I think we we get some some exciting stuff all right well so thank you for that we're just about out of time so I want to say thank you representative for your time out of your busy schedule there Florida really appreciate it this has been very helpful and really just appreciate it thank you to our AG Oh members for participating today and watch for the playback we're going to post this on our website on our YouTube YouTube channel so and share it with the world so again thank you for your time today and really appreciate it

7DMWGEEQ5s4 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DMWGEEQ5s4 | Hoaka Swimsuit Try On Haul | what's up you guys welcome back to another video it's been so long since i've been able to do a try on haul for you guys but it is springtime now so the fact that summer's right around the corner i felt like it was very appropriate to do one around this time so if you guys are unfamiliar with waka swimwear they are a bathing suit company right out of canada and if you guys are familiar with my videos at all i've been wearing these bikinis for probably two to three years now and i absolutely love them the company is great i've never had an issue with them at all the material of their bathing suit is actually a wetsuit material so remember if you guys end up ordering any of these bikinis or if the guys you want to order swim trunks or anything remember that it's a wetsuit material so it does fit a little bit different than a regular bikini would but i absolutely recommend it because they're amazing i've literally never had a problem with anything so i have three bikinis today that i want to try on for you guys without further ado let's get into the video i have the first bikini on you guys and this is the one that i probably wearing all the time top is a medium plus plus i wear a 32 double d so that is why it's a medium plus plus and i want to say it fits perfect honestly the fact that this is a neoprene material which is uh like a wetsuit material it does fit a little bit stiffer so in some spots it does wrinkle up a little bit but i personally don't mind at all i find it super comfy and then guys these are just the normal um bikini bottoms i want to say they're the thong version and i got these in a medium as well [Music] okay so guys i think so far well i only tried on one bathing suit but i think this one's gonna be my favorite one i feel like it looks really good when you have just a little bit of a tan but i'm gonna change into the next one so i'll be back this is their velvet strapless bikini and i've never worn something velvet especially for a swimsuit but i personally really really like the way it fits um the top again is a medium plus plus and bottoms are the high waisted thong bottom i just hope that this stays up in the water but it's the neoprene material underneath so it's still that wetsuit material so it feels really sturdy feel right here and then feel underneath [Music] understand [Music] and you guys the way i put it on i honestly just slipped it right over my head because i feel like it's really hard to get on by yourself the way you're supposed to put it on is by it snaps up kind of just like a bra but guys i just flipped it over my head and it went on just fine i like this bikini i have one more bikini left so let's go try her on he's over it i feel like this is like famous bikini i feel like they're the first ones that came out with this zip up neoprene material i used to actually own one of these before the same exact kind except for it had like a white a white strip instead of the black strip i absolutely loved it i wore it to cancun i went surfing in it wakeboarding in it and i absolutely loved it so i already knew i was gonna like this top so again i got a medium plus plus in the top and then these are the high-waisted thongs again in a medium and i feel like it fits perfect so [Music] now okay you guys that is the end of this try and haul there's only three bathing suits to try on but that's okay i feel like that's enough it's got me stocked up for summertime so i'm excited to wear these bikinis if you guys want to check them out the link will be listed down below and i will have a 10 discount code for you guys so if you have any questions at all leave a comment down in the comment sections remember to like this video subscribe and one more thing there's a link down below if you guys want to check out these bikinis just click the link and it'll take you straight to their website at hawakkuswimwear.com thank you guys so much and i'll see you next video bye you | Tintfig | UC8kCYNPUYbTYt_GjbX7WjIQ | 2020-05-29 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 798 | 3,958 |
d2Lwhrxkrb4 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2Lwhrxkrb4 | Indo-Pacific Endeavour 2017 | The Indo-Pacific Joint Task Group departed from Sydney made up of six ships from the Royal Australian Navy as well as joint assets to support our humanitarian assistance and and disaster response capability. The main aim of the deployment is to conduct security operations. We also conduct a number of humanitarian aid disaster relief exercises. The Indo-Pacific Endeavour Task Group is the largest Joint Task Group that we've deployed off Australia in over 40 years into the East Asian region. The ship's will remain together initially but over the course of the deployment between September and November, they will detach at times and then rejoin at various stages throughout the deployment based on what their tasking maybe. It's a great opportunity for Australia to demonstrate what this new LHD capability can bring to support our regional partners for any major humanitarian assistance and disaster response. So at the end of the deployment what I hope to have achieved is that we've shown our regional neighbours what the Australian Defence Force can provide in terms of humanitarian aid and disaster relief capabilities and capacity and that they have an understanding of how we can help them should they request that help and it would facilitate a level of trust amongst ourselves such that we are all fully aware of what each of us can do in times of need. | Royal Australian Navy | UCQ8hkLHwG2MNGNHmW4EzMfg | 2017-09-19 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 228 | 1,367 |

vJnozLNQCYM | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJnozLNQCYM | How to Submit Biopsy Sample for Assessment | So this is the collection kit that arrives from KASHI Clinical Laboratories and inside the box, we have one RNAlater® tube in the specimen bag and a patient identifier barcode for the sample and one for the form and the inside, the order request form. Here is the Specimen Collection Form, which is very straightforward. Please place the sticker of the barcode on the top of the form here and the other copy onto the specimen bottle. Please fill out the patient demographic information, the clinical information and the insurance and billing information, and your institutional details. You can see here that I've labeled both the form and the bottle with the corresponding barcode sticker. Back of the form, you will find instructions as to how to take the sample, which I'll show you in the upcoming video. Hi I'm Chris Lawrence, I'm the Director of Medical Affairs with One Lambda, and I'm going to show you how to collect a sample from the Molecular Microscope™. Simply set up your tray in the usual way. You will need a blade in order to dissect the kidney core to provide the three millimeter segment for the Molecular Microscope™. So we've done the biopsy, and we've got two cores of kidney here and here. And we need three millimeters of one of the cores, so we will take it off the larger core. Sometimes a little bit tricky. I use a scalpel blade and a needle to dissect the core. Give me a generous three millimeters here. There we are. We've got that three millimeters or more of cortex so we pop that straight into the RNAlater®. And then simply seal the tube and that's ready to go with the completed form by FedEx to the laboratory. The sample labeled kidney in RNAlater® goes into the specimen bag. Seal the specimen bag. Pop the completed form in with it. Pop it back into the box, and then the box goes into the FedEx envelope and is sent to the KASHI laboratory in Portland. | Thermo Fisher Scientific | One Lambda | UC8iaV-ZllAHXbXiAMwKR_wg | 2021-07-01 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 341 | 2,013 |
1zbwkZrt9yc | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zbwkZrt9yc | Session II: New Programs Emerging from DCO - Shaunna Morrison | thank you so much Catherine and I'm really excited today to have the opportunity to tell you a little bit about our 4d initiative in deep time data-driven discovery and the evolution of planetary systems where's that clicker so this came about from the deep time data infrastructure project this of course was in part funded by the deep carbon Observatory and the sloan foundation and with this project we were tasked with the goal of better understanding the coevolution of the geosphere and biosphere from a data-driven perspective through this project came questions that are still driving for D today and that of things like how do planets evolve through deep time and what are the drivers behind their similarities and differences how can we deconvolve and characterize the complex feedback systems between the geosphere and biosphere what physical and chemical parameters control planetary habitability and what are the most robust and unambiguous bio signatures that we and how can we detect them on other planets so with these questions in mind and with the very generous funding of the sloan foundation and the deep carbon observatory we brought together over a hundred scientists from many different fields of earth space life and data scientists to see if we could integrate our expertise and begin to answer some questions some big outstanding science questions that one field alone could not address out of this workshop we have a white paper which is available on our website and we also have a fantastic cross-disciplinary international network and I'm gonna hit on a couple things that have already been mentioned by a few of the other speakers and that is that we have some great opportunities here so first we have the opportunity to ask compelling science question that is at the interface of our fields DCO is an amazing example of how bringing together different fields can begin to tackle some amazing questions we also have the opportunity to harness and integrate some of the existing data resources including dark data and we can also apply advanced analytics and visualization techniques to exploit the multidimensionality of these very complex systems and lastly we can create open access data resources and we can train the next generation so I'd like to just give you four very brief intros to a couple of the projects that we been working on in 4d and I'd like to just point out our data science team this is Peter Fox at RPI and Marshall MA at University of Idaho and their teams of course this is a collaboration that came about strictly through the through the deep carbon Observatory and none of this work you're about to see would be possible without them so first let's talk a bit about network analysis so the premise here in mineral network analysis is that the diversity and distribution as well as the composition of minerals provide a framework for answering questions and making predictions regarding the timing extent underlying causes and relationships between complex geologic biologic and planetary processes and features through deep time and the question we had is is how do we deal with these complex systems how can we visualize and analyze this this extreme multidimensionality that we have so here we're looking at a carbon mineral Network you'll see the colored nodes represent carbon mineral species things like calcite and aragonite and they're colored according to their age and they're sized according to the number of localities that they occur at and the black nodes represent carbon mineral locality sized according to their diversity there are a lot of things I could point out here but I'll just mention one is then that is that we may be looking at a planetary scale bio signature why is that that is because earths mineral diversity and distribution is unique we have a frequency distribution of minerals on earth it follows an Ln re or a large number of rare events distribution Dan homers gonna talk a little bit more about this and his carbon mineral challenge talk but basically this is that most mineral species are rare and there are only a few that are very common so when you couple this with the high mineral diversity over 5500 mineral species as of today and you look at other planetary systems like Mars the moon in Vesta they have on the order of hundreds of mineral species that occur frequently and they're lacking rare species and high diversity so I'd like to show another feature of networks and that is embedded timelines I could have shown you this on the carbon network but I thought we'd mix it up a little bit and look at a network of coexistence of animal families so here we have an embedded time line as you can probably immediately see going from Cambrian fauna into modern day I'd like to note that time was not encoded in the layout of this network in any way it's only coexistence so the fact that we can see a time line means its intrinsic to this data which makes sense in an evolving system so I'd also like to point out these pinch points these were really interesting features and it turns out they correspond to known mass extinction events in the fossil record this was great because when we're using a new technique we want to make sure it can tell us what we already know to be true of course right but it also gives us a tool now when we go to a different type of network like my colleague dreama sent he did when he went to the trilobite fossil record and when we notice a pinch point like this one here you can say oh there's something going on there so he actually investigated this time period and found that there was indeed a previously unknown massive faunal turnover event so he was were able to recognize that just looking at the network topology please check out the live demo we are we are trying to figure out different ways to visualize our data and one of the areas we're exploring is virtual reality so in room 125 at carnagie we'll have a set up so you guys can play with this they're really neat so please check it out the next project I'd like to mention is mineral affinity analysis so the question that we really wanted to get out here is how can we predict the location of unknown mineral occurrences deposits or specific environments so a recommender system is a system is a system that characterizes multi-dimensional co-occurrence relationships and creates a probabilistic model for predicting a future or currently unknown co-occurrences so if you've ever used Amazon and it's suggested that you buy things you are familiar with this type of algorithm so essentially we generate Association rules and it kind of looks like this so if I have these for minerals there's a certain probability of finding the fifth mineral there and what this allows us to do is ask questions like where can I find a certain mineral that I'm interested in if I have a certain location that I'm interested in what other minerals form there that we don't already know about and what I'm most interested in is where can I find a deposit or an environment say a Mars analog site that's characterized by a certain mineral assemblage and we actually have some ground truthing of this so we implemented a very simple pairwise version of this algorithm and the folks over at MnDOT were actually able to go out there and find a sample of the wulfenite that we predicted to exist at cooks peak district in New Mexico so it was exciting to have some some ground truthing of this algorithm the third project I'd like to mention I'm really excited about and this is natural kind clustering so basically minerals are incredibly information rich and they offer the opportunity to integrate their diverse characteristics and parameters to gain a more multi-dimensional multivariate perspective of dynamic chemical geological and processes through through deep time so the question I'm really interested in here is how do we determine the formational environment of a mineral so for instance if I find a sample of pyrite on Mars what does that tell me about how it formed not a lot unfortunately but I want to know was there any biological mediation involved in the formation of this mineral so we turned to our colleagues Ross large and Dan Gregory and they very generously provided us with an amazing database of thousands of geo chemical analyses of pyrite major/minor trace isotopic ratios and we were able to look at their their multivariate correlations and use cluster analysis to find groups within these data and it turns out these groups correspond to the formational environment so what this means is if I find a pyrite sample on Mars or you give me a sample of pyrite you don't know how it formed I can tell you how that formed our group can actually tell you that with this information which i think is pretty cool the last project I'd like to just mention briefly really came out of the D co2 so this idea came from the D Co st. Andrews meeting from a few of us chatting there and it ended up making its way into a proposal for a NASA Astrobiology Institute note which got funded at Rutgers it's called enigma and basically here are the ideas that we're taking metagenomic data and we're relating it to the geochemical environment so we're trying to understand what are the complex feedbacks between the geochemical environment and the microbial populations that are present so we want to understand are there are microbial populations constrained by their geochemical environments and vice-versa and did metal availability through deep time of protein evolution so the DCO has done an amazing job of compiling data resources and of bringing together different fields I mean they've truly been a pioneer in this integrative type of science so we are very much so following in those in those footsteps and we're also bringing in advanced analytics and and visualization we're getting out of the XY plots and really trying to look at the multi dimensionality of these systems I've heard it often said before that multidimensionality is a curse it's not a curse it's an amazing opportunity for us to really characterize these complex systems so the 4d future plans we're going to host a number of workshops including an intro to data science so this is if you don't know how to code if you haven't done anything like this before which was me two three years ago I'm honestly not much much past that now but we're going to host some some intro to data science courses so that we can kind of see how people can get started we'll also do some more technique specific courses probably at conferences aju Goldschmidt things like that on cluster analysis network analysis and so on and we'll also host a workshop or two and thinking about a cross-disciplinary question so a scientific question that we can really dig dig down into we also have a number of data phones we have one next week and one the following week so we have quite a few of those going on and we will have a internship and visiting scholar opportunities so if any of you are interested in that please let me know we're also always looking for for new collaborations and new ideas so please come and talk to any of the any of the 4d folks and we're also in a fundraising mode so if you'd like to check out any of our live networks you can actually manipulate these on the d TDI website and please check out the the four d initiative website it's it's still under construction but there's quite a bit of good information up there including our white paper so I'd like to thank by many many collaborators and are many many funders but I most of all like to thank the deep carbon Observatory and the sloan foundation without without the DCO and without sloan ford ii would certainly not be happening so thank you so much for that and we thought I'll take any questions [Applause] so thank you very much are there questions I guess what's a date athon Oh what's the date of one good question I didn't know that three years ago when Peter Fox's group taught me that now they're the only way I like to have meetings basically we would come together on either a common question you know so say I have a research question that I'm really interested in answering or I have a data set that I don't exactly know what questions I even should be asking you know I know that there's something hidden in this data set but how do I find that information so we come together with we bring our data we all sit in the same room together and honestly there's a lot of data cleaning that goes on and that's so if we can do that in advance it's nice so we'll clean the data and then everyone will kind of start exploring it in their own way so each person will take kind of their own approach to trying to figure out what correlations are in they're trying out different visualizations and exploring the data depending upon you know what your question is or if it's truly just exploratory so by the end of it we end up with a matrix of tasks and goals and scientific questions that we're asking it and usually papers that we're going to write it's rare that we have a data phone that we don't have multiple papers coming out of so so they're pretty cool and I know you're right down the road so if you have any interest and this goes to all of you if you have any interest in participating in one of our data phones please let me know if you have a if you have a data set that you're interested in exploring we can do that remotely we can do that through a data Fon just let us know yeah thanks okay thank you [Applause] | Deep Carbon | UCLcRLpfY50Q5_ZdkcFH5Pvw | 2019-10-30 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 2,425 | 13,562 |
vqYY2mdfxG0 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqYY2mdfxG0 | ATRIO VENTRICULAR CANAL DEFECTS | MARK SKLANSKY | AVSD | FETAL ECHO | FETAL CARDIAC ANOMALY | DOWN'S | so let's move on to other types of septal defects AV canal defects so obviously now many cases of a beacon Alchemist OSA with Down syndrome here's a classic case of a complete canal the AV canal defects involved in mitral valve in the tricuspid valve various versions of being a single valve or sort of almost a single valve often there's an atrial septal defect in the primum septum and an inlet ventricular septal defect you could have normal versus complete canals incomplete or partial and then transitional canals and I'll talk about each of them but very importantly before we talk about the details this is another tomographic ultrasound imaging example this shows you why when you're scanning the four chamber view it's very important not just to scan at one level but to move back and forth because it's easy to miss AV canal defects you could see in which portion I guess it's this one right here you could see the AV canal defect but if you look here it looks normal here it looks normal the it's only in one portion so the point being that when you're doing a fourteen review unless you sweep back and forth a little bit you may be missing a canal defect that's an important point so let's talk about different types of AV canal defects complete transitional and partial complete has a large ventricular septal defect a partial has no ventricular septal defect in a transitional has a sort of a medium sized ventricular septal defect that there's a pressure gradient across it and that has clinical relevance after birth which I'll talk about so this is a complete canal right here you could see one big AV valve large ventricular septal defect at the inlet septum and this is an primum atrial septal defect as well of course to look at this we want to look from different views but to see the AV valves this is a nice view to see the AV valves so when an AV canal is a complete canal with a large ventricular septal defect what's very important the neck step from our perspective in terms of looking at the heart is whether it's a balanced defect in other words as I'm scanning I'm thinking to myself is this a defect that down the road after the baby is born maybe around four to six months of age the surgeon will be able to septate close the ventricular septal defect and have enough tissue to form a tricuspid valve on the RV side and enough tissue to form a mitral valve on the LV side and as are the ventricles going to be adequately formed is it well-balanced if there's not a balanced canal and if it's an unbalanced canal then that's the prognosis is much worse because many of those cases will not be able to undergo - ventricular appear they go down the single ventricle palliation approach which has a much more guarded long-term prognosis multiple surgeries much more complicated and difficult for the patient in the family so whether an AV canal a complete canal is balanced or not is very important and of course we also look for V valve R regurgitation the more valve R regurgitation we see early on like at 20 weeks the worst of prognosis and it also also Gorgos along often with ventricular dysfunction more primitive ventricles complete canals of course when we see those need to think about trisomy 21 and many of these patients do undergo a Neilsen Tisa's now a partial canal as I mentioned is I showed you this side before it's a lower part of the atrial septum is deficient so this is a partial canal they almost always will have a cleft in the mitral valve which sometimes you can see regurgitation sometimes that's difficult to see before birth the AV valves are at the same level so this is a partial canal because the the in that ventricular septum is intact and here's normal in comparison so these partial canals are different from a complete canal complete canal needs surgery within the first four to six months if we wait on those babies and don't do surgery they can develop pulmonary vascular disease much worse prognosis so whenever you have a fetus with trisomy 21 if you think the heart's normal prenatal I always recommend doing an echocardiogram after birth to make sure we don't want to miss an AV canal because sometimes they don't present then if you way too late the prognosis is much worse in contrast the partial canal has no ventricular septal defect these these behave like atrial septal defects like secundum atrial septal defects where we don't need to do surgery we don't need to close them until several years after birth when the neurologic prognosis is much better we don't want to go and bypass in the first six months if you don't need to these babies sometimes develop heart failure but that's unusual more typically they're doing just fine maybe they didn't low lasix and we repair them a few years of age and their prognosis is outstanding sometimes the cleft and the mitral valve can be stitch closed at the same time and again there is a maybe an association with trisomy 21 so a transitional canal you could see the primum atrial septal defect and you could get a sense for a small ventricular septal defect that's largely closed we discriminate or distinguish between a complete canal and a transitional because a complete canal requires surgery in the first six months usually four to six months transitional canals by definition because the ventricular septal defect is smaller these babies are not at the same increased risk for pulmonary vascular disease if you wait beyond the year of age so it's a different type it's a very different disease but these babies do require open-heart surgery to close sometimes the repair can be a little more even more complicated than a complete canal depending on the anatomy of the mitral valves and the anatomy in the ventricular septum here in all cases all types of canals of course we wanted this an old slide as you get old Clips you want to look for AV valve regurgitation valve regurgitate it well enough balance is it balanced or not is how well balanced is it turn trying to predict whether these babies will be candidates for two ventricular appear with a very good prognosis versus single ventricle appear with a much more guarded prognosis here you could see again a transitional canal this has a very large primum atrial septal defect and a very small ventricular septal defect here's another transitional canal you could actually see on the left side you could levy valve are tissue partially closing the ventricular septum and you can see white regurgitation over here is from the cleft so all forms of AV canal defects you're not looking just at the AV canal of course whenever you have one heart defect there may be other defects and particular a vehicle nail defects are often associated with other defects sometimes with complex forms of header taxi but sometimes just another AB someone other abnormality so we always want to see what are the veins the pulmonary veins looking like is there a common atrium is it balanced or not and then we want to look at the outflow tracts is there tetralogy flow a vehicle now if that tetralogy AV canal is a very common combination particularly in the context of trisomy 21 we want to look at there is a double outlet right ventricle here's the order coming off the RV and the pulmonary is coming off the LV with transposition the pulmonary arteries may be a little small so it's not just good enough to pick up a diagnosis of AV canal you also then want to see if there's anything else going on that's going to impact how this baby is gonna do AV canal defects if everything else looks perfect they could have one surgery at four to six months of age to then have a normal part of Astral prognosis for the most part with a small percentage of cases having requiring more surgery or if there's if it's unbalanced or significant valve or regurgitation or there's outflow tract abnormalities the prognosis can be much worse so when we counsel patients early on whether to continue a pregnancy it's important to know what other abnormalities may be present [Music] | Indian Radiologist | UCOytuNcDLnYF0WqwD84gYAA | 2020-05-10 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata |

dedicated to helping advisers grow their businesses this series is all about insurance exploring the start to end process of putting a policy in place all the way through to claim time I'm joined by five experts who Shar their knowledge and insight and a few stories along the way so let's get started this podcast series is brought to you by Leading Australian life insurer tal tal is committed to partnering with advisers to protect the financial well-being of their clients now and into the future Tal's accelerated protection products ensure your clients have access to cover options that are

consider the relevant product disclosure statement the target market determination for the product is also available online at tal.com wau welcome to episode 2 in our series on all things insurance I am joined by Hayden white insurance and investment advisor at pooland Partners Investment Services to chat about a very relevant topic given the cost of living pressures increasing insurance premiums and demonstrating the value of what you do for your clients which is how you can ensure a client's insurance policy remains in force Hayden welcome thank you so Hayden I always like to start off by getting to know our guests so can you tell us a little bit about how you got into Financial advice uh yeah so I came into the financial services industry in 2001 um just after I finished high school in 2000 and basically started from the ground up so started in administ ation um worked my way up to power planning um then eventually went into advising um I was always very interested in stock market and economics in in high school um so I I looked at sort of going down that track initially but after my auntie was actually diagnosed with um cancer um and had some pretty bad uh Financial stress simply by not having really the right Insurance in place I really U fell in love with the need um and the importance of personal insurance protection um and so for the next probably uh nearly a decade I went off and and specialized in that area but always had the um the background in in the economics and the investment market so over the last nearly well basically two decades now that I've been in the industry I've sort of molded into what you would refers to that holistic advise that looks after both Personal Insurance um and investment and uation work so uh yeah I've been advising now for for nearly probably 15 years it's interesting how you know so many of us myself included sort of came out of school um you know started quote unquote at the bottom uh worked our way up through admin power planning and then you know went into um advising it's it's it's not an uncommon Journey um and interesting also that it was it was almost a particular life event that that helped you focus on insurance for the first part of your of your career so it's interesting to me that you started off in insurance and then moved into other sorts of uh Financial advice as well so a lot of our listeners are either insurance only and you know wanting to get into holistic advice or holistic advisers who want to do more insurance so how do you balance your time between insurance which is such a massive exercise on its own and also the holistic advice investment advice and all that how do you balance your time between the both of them yeah it's um it can be tricky and we have gotten well me particularly with my personal side of things have gotten to a point where I I nearly am basically capped as far as new business that I can take on and that's why we have brought some some younger advisers into into the practice one is actually an ex accountant um so he's obviously already got a financial background the other is a junior advisor that we're training up the way that we want him to be trained up in our business um so we've got some support there to take on the new business side of things for me personally um what I do with the investment work is very different to what I do with the insurance work so two very different systems two very different service I suppose agreements that we have with with clients um it is very admin heavy especially on the insurance side of things and anyone that's been in the game for long enough and has a reasonable client base knows that what comes with insurance eventually is also claims um and how do you also manage that ongoing claims process in addition with the everyday admin work one of our things has been going after very good Administration staff um now I've been lucky in that I've had a fantastic PA with me for for 10 years um we've also had a number of other Administration staff that have been with us for 5 years plus um so we do have for every one advised we've got basically two and a half to nearly three admin staff um some of them are full-time some of them are part-time um but we want to keep a very high service level um especially when you're dealing with things with insurance because as your book grows even simple things like change of Bank Account Details change of address details um policy alterations updating superation details all those sorts of things do take a big um time consuming role in the practice and as an advisor you don't want to be doing those things your your job is to be dealing with the client not to be doing doing those day in day out admin jobs so having a robust um process in place is very critical um the process needs to be near perfect if you're going to run a very efficient business from a large scale point of view and also I think the second um key point is actually dealing with insurers where where them themselves have a a very good Administration um side of business behind the scenes there are a number of insurers I'm not going to name anyone but there are a number of insurers that do Administration well and some that don't do it well um and we know that um today key of efficiency and speed of being able to change things is very critical in our business so we've been very conscious to make commercial decisions in the past to really partner with certain insurers that obv L not just have a great product and a great service offering for our clients but also how easy is it to change simple things with that insurer how easy is it to change a simple decline on a CPI a change of a bank account a change of address can all that be done instantly online or or via an email or are we dealing with an insurer where we've got to fill out another piece of paper every time some something like that minor does occur so as your business grows and that admin Bur becomes more and more and more it is very important what I believe is to probably have those three main things one is a very robust process um a very good Administration team behind the advisor um and thirdly um dealing with insurers that you can make changes very quickly um so I think dealing with certain insurers can make a big difference um and as you go through your journey as an advisor you also work out having relationships with advisors and key stakeholders does still help with things like claims management um you know the insurance industry is very different to the investment in the superation industry because it still is very much a relationship business um I think the role that bdms and support staff with insurance companies do play a a more significant role than it does with investment and superation work um simply from the force that once you put an application in force with say a superation or for investment there's nothing really else to do behind the scenes there it's it's up to the advisor um whereas with insurance you've got a whole range of things that can come off the back of that application there's underwriting there's admin there's claims there's renewals there's a whole range of things so yeah key of process key of good admin staff and key of dealing with efficient insurers I really like that point you made about dealing with efficient insurers and of course that changes all the time businesses go through Cycles so you as a business owner or as an advised professional need to constantly be on top of those relationships but it's really interesting to me that you have made commercial decisions to uh have relationships at a particular point in time with particular insurers you know many of us you know have worked or work with you know these open apls approved product lists and so you can more or less given your dealer group or your license work with any insurers but I I I think it's so key that you know of a panel of 10 insurers you might only at this time work with with five unless there's a case outside of that because it's just such a a a more efficient seamless scalable type process and you know you've summarized it excellently with the robust process and having a good admin team and when we talk about keeping a client's policy in force process in in my experience when I ran my business had so much to do with it especially from a scalable point of view you mentioned that in in some ways you might have hit your sort of current capacity as as an individual but I'm sure that that can be better managed or grow with things like processes so without giving away all your secrets what sort of processes do you have in your business to make sure that a client's policy can remain in force yes so one of our I suppose key processes is especially when we come up to that anniversary time that we are um very proactive in getting in contact with the client um normally four weeks out from the anniversary days um sometimes that will be earlier we know that of recent times insurers have been sending out anniversary details sometimes up to two months in advance when there are those big increases coming um but a lot of the times it will be around about that month um we obviously have a register that we use through um we use advisor Logic for our our CRM and off the back of that run um additional spreadsheets with our anniversaries um and so each you know it can be a bit of a mundane process but we basically have a a business a process where the administration team will obviously gather the new premium data we then have our Junior advisor that will go into that and look at some of the review quotes we then that then comes back to me as the advisor to get in contact with that client um we a lot of our existing clients have come off the back of previous referrals from accountants um and those have been rarely good from a sticking point of view because we still have kept those relationship with the accountants what that's also allowed us to do is behind the scenes is actually um review with the client things like what's been their taxable income for the last 12 months where do they sit with assets and liabilities on a on a balance sheet of their business so we're actually doing a lot of the behind the scenes work from a review point of view that the client sometimes might not be aware of but we're actually making that a really efficient process for the clients the time that that review comes around 3 to 4 weeks out from the anniversary we're being proactive in that we're reviewing first of all the policy against the market is there any significant savings that we could possibly look at um and it does normally have to be reasonably significant to to move a policy um especially these days because underwriting is a hell of a lot more stricter than what it used to be um and then off the back of that it is can we make any alterations that are going to benefit the client and a lot of the time with putting ourselves in the client's position um we know that the cost of living pressures has increased quite significantly and unfortunately it's not uncommon these days to see increases anywhere from 25 35 I've seen some increases of 70% on some Legacy contracts so therefore being proactive is a key part of our process and again I come back to having that rigid um Administration team and process in Place everyone knows their role in the business we do do a lot of reviews in our business every year um it doesn't matter whether a client paying $100 a month or $1,000 a month every client is getting the same service from an insurance point of view um and that just comes back to making sure every policy does stay in force so we're not neglecting the smaller ones um we believe that everyone you know that that is an important element in in a person's protection portfolio for everyone so having being proactive and getting in contact with the client well and truly in advance of that premium increase or aniversary date and then it comes back to educating the client on again reinforcing the importance of what is the policy that they've got what are those policy features and why should they still have that in force um we know that probably post year one of implementation of an insurance policy um clients generally forget what they cover for how much they're covered for and what policy that they've got you know you would probably remember when when you an advisor and you know you you talk to a client and they got tpd cover for example and they would say oh if I get cancer I get paid out on that it's like well not particularly you have to get to an element of the definition that's more your trauma side of thing so again coming back to making clients understand the importance of why they're keeping these policies in force and then trying to come up with a practical solution as to if there has been a significant increase what elements can we possibly alter within that protection portfolio that's going to still make sure the client does have enough cover but is practically affordable going forward um so there are obviously steps in that process but again it's it's for for our business I believe it's getting in contact with the client well and truly out from that anniversary date so that we don't you know it's not a surprise one week out and then having discussions well and truly out from the anniversary date what possible changes could be made um a process in regards to making sure that policies don't lapse again um we have a very good Administration team that any time we we get a notification that there's been a Mis premium the admin team the requirement is that they get on to that within 24 hours um so that will be normally a direct phone call to the client and a lot of the times it's actually just the fact that clients have changed debit details or a credit card or there might be a different USI number for a superation that where rollover hasn't come about so those sort of elements it's it's about getting onto the client ASAP but having that that admin team and that process and making the the admin team actually aware that how important this is that if a policy does lapse there's a big implication not only for us but for the client I am I'm a massive fan of processes and you know I think to run any business of size whether it's a you know a single advisor or you know a business with multiple advisers that processes are absolutely key and I know inherently I think we all know that as business owners or or you know advisers but one of my questions that I that I often like to ask people is is the process up here in your head or is it you programmed is it that you know in your business for example do you have a step-by-step sort of flowchart with um templates that that therefore the client experiences always the same and clients always get that or again is it just this is what we do and everyone knows that's what we do where are you at with your processes yeah no our our process is definitely documented um I mean as I said we've been lucky that we have a number of admin staff that have been with this for five plus years but anytime anyone new comes into the practice and I'll give our Junior advisor probably a good example because he he came on board with us about six months ago um even though his progression is essentially to be an advisor for the first 6 months all he's doing is is Administration and learning and learning the process and going through that procedural process of what we do um because his journey and I suppose like a lot of people when they start off is that you do have time to to see a client and also do your own processing um and then eventually you'll get to a stage where obviously you've got a scalable business and you'll employ someone else to do those duties um but in our business we definitely have a documented proc process we do have those flowcharts through our CRM and also through um our um our spreadsheet that's basically on on the cloud that everyone can access within the office so at any one point people can go into that register and see who's worked on it who's done um the actual um data of the updated um anniversary details who's done the the comparison quotes and then who's actually been in contact with the client so that that I suppose you would call it a flowchart but it's just based off a of a simple um spreadsheet but the whole office can can go in there and anytime it's being touched it it shows who's actually dealt with that file oh I just I can't extol all the virtues of the documented process map whether it's an Excel spreadsheet or a word dock or whether you use a program like prom map something like that I just can't extol the virtues of it enough it makes business so much more scalable the clients get a consistent experience clients in in my experience want consistency I think that sometimes we can get a little bit worried that oh if it's a if it's the same experience all the time people will think that we kind of don't know what we're doing I I just I it's just so important and also from a compliance point of view having a documented process that ticks the boxes um and then some because then you can engineer whatever you want in your process for a great Cent experience I just love a good process map I think it's yeah I think it's absolutely important yeah and I and I think these days we know that um profitability of insurance businesses is not what it used to be and so again not just from a compliance um point of view and and a I suppose a flowing of seamless Administration and process but if you're trying to look for that scalable business your process um and your systems behind the scene need to be near near perfect um otherwise it just becomes too too much of an Administration burden and a burn of time within that practice to be able to get things over the line um if you don't have those right processes in forcing you don't have those flowcharts or a CRM behind the scenes that's doing a lot of the the helping and a lot of the mapping for you then it just becomes um a bit of a dog's breakfast and all that ends up having is that client that you're you know trying to make some some time and money on and get policies over the line or get amendments done just simply does not become profitable so that is another key part of the process especially these days as we know that um there's more red tape there's more time involved so those things need to be very very important to deal with yeah and I think also then having these sort of processes in place I I think it does set businesses apart um it doesn't have to be the most exciting process it just has to be consistent predictable and deliver on on the client's expectations ultimately and of course you know business efficiency season scalability and profitability so that for me is one way possibly one quote unquote invisible way that we can demonstrate as advisers value to clients our value as advisers and also value potentially of the insurance policy so in your business and with your clients how do you demonstrate let's start off with the value of the insurance policy because we're talking all about how to retain clients how to keep clients policy enforced so how do you you demonstrate the value of the policy of the insurance to your clients first all first of all yeah I suppose from our side of things I look I've never been a big salesperson to be honest so for me it's always been about educating the client in regards to what what policy are they taking out what does that entail and how would that financially benefit them in in a lifechanging situation so the first point is a lot of clients will come to us and a lot of the times they will have existing cover especially even if it's just default cover Through superation it's then an education process of making the clients understand what they've got what they're lacking um what the risks are that of them not partaking at a particular policy following on from that one of the things that we do which is just a simple thing is actually every time that we do an annual review for a client and provide an anniversary report is actually also attach our claim statistics um we do get a lot of feedback on that and now we've got claim statistics going back to 2010 um so we do have you know 13 years worth of data now um that is one simple way especially if you've got an established practice where you have had claims where you can simply put that and it's just been openly and honest with the client some years we have a lot of claims sometimes we don't um and that's just the reality of insurance you know one year you might have 100 claims the next year you might have 10 um but it's making the clients understand that claims do happen um and clients generally will forget again I come back to you know post year One what am I covered for what's this policy what am I paying for well you're paying for these these types of situations when claims do come about so we provide very transparent data to clients um we also have in the past provided um claimed stories um and anytime that we do a um process an insurance claim for a client we get them to provide some feedback that we can communicate out um to our existing clients on our website through social media those sorts of things I think also in regards to trying to um instill the importance of a risk portfolio for a client and continuing on you know essentially for their working life as they do need it um is if you're also in a position where you're looking after other elements of their financial needs be it's superation investment work um maybe there might be some um cash flow or external sort of advice that you're giving outside the insurance side of things um is that most of our clients are also on our on our regular regular newsletter which we send out sort of on a on a fortnightly to 3 we basis um and that has a lot of different things it's more of a holistic um communication um a lot of it does evolve around Investments and markets and superation but we do also provide updates in regards with insurance changes and and legislation changes those sorts of things now again whether every client reads it or not I know that every client doesn't read it but it's about that ongoing communication to clients and keeping them engaged with you I think if you're simply just sending out a letter once a year um and and hoping for the best your your drop off rate is probably going to be a lot higher than than an advisor that in more regular communication with with that client um and as I said be it whether you're educating them through claims that you've had in your offers claim stories or be it through other services that you can offer that might value the client whether it's insurance or not it's about keeping them engaged so when you do come that to that annual review it's not a oh who are you again it's uh oh yes this is part of our ongoing process and we understand that this is just part of our overall portfolio for our financial services needs it's kind of like you know the term marketing right ultimately that's kind of what this is but it is really the ongoing education piece which you know is what we've been talking about and I think that when we think about specifically insurance insurance relationships tend to be very heavy on at the beginning then you know once a year ideally with that renewal process and then very heavy on a claims time but how you know as sort of we've just covered this is what you do to to you know have that relationship with your client in the boring middle right keep front of Mind keep demonstrating your value and it it is the things like the newsletters and this is not this is not a marketing the focus of this is not marketing but it is you know stay in front of M with clients but also adding value just sending a a newsletter with just generic stories is not necessarily adding value to your clients it is having those claim stats that are very relevant to your business it's having stories that are relevant to them it's having um you know the policy and product updates it's all those sorts of things and it's also about reaching people across multiple mediums which is kind of you know what you you've said you've got the newsletters the social media platforms do you do things like videos in your business do you get video testimonials from clients and claim and those sorts of things we we have done in the past um to be honest we we haven't done one in probably a couple of years but we have done some in the past in regards with uh video updates we've done some claim testimonials in the past with with video updates as well um that is something that we we are looking to to revamp especially as we've got some other advisors that have come on on recent times um and we did actually get into the habit of one time of actually doing especially with their investment um reports of doing sort of a quarterly update by via video um like like most good things you tend to go away from them for some reason um and those are the sorts of things we're sort of trying to implement back into the business because I think you're definitely right that that video element um even though it might be a bit more generic that can go out to everyone that's just an efficiency of sort of process because you are connecting with a lot more people but off the back of that you can then come back and and individually andent tailor the client situation for what they need um if I look at our practice you know I I started off as a risk only advisor and you know for that first sort of um decade that that's all I did and I think for for young people coming into the industry that to me that makes more sense I think if you're if you're a if you're a young 20-some year old that's trying to go out and and give advice to to retirees with superation and investment um you're probably going to be a bit behind the the eightball there with with up against against advisers that have got more experience and and have been in the game for a bit longer so my my I suppose grow in my business um when I look at the holistic side of things and looking after clients Investments and superation um a lot of that has actually come from insurance clients so because we've done a good job for them in the past at at points in time they've gone hey I've you know I've seen on your newsletter you do this or by the way can you have a look at my superation etc etc so then all of a sudden they not just become an insurance client but they've transitioned from being you know a young person that needs insurance needs to all of a sudden um they're they're earning reasonable money they've got super contributions going in so when then looking after their their super inovation needs and and the investment work around that so I think there there is a great opportunity there especially for younger people that if they're getting instead of heading directly off into the investment side of things is to potentially go off in the other way and head off onto the risk side of things we know that there is a a huge gap there in the market we know that a lot of a lot of older advisers that have been in the game have have now exited from the ins sort of things um that creates a real opportunity for for newer people and especially younger people coming coming into the industry and for me that's that's what started off and then you basically can become that holistic advisor um down the line to provide those additional services but yeah I think that I think the key is the education and keeping clients engaged is a really important factor and how we've been able to grow our business and as I said even even as an insurance client you know every client needs to know about endview super interation strategies um whether they're ins whether they're an insurance client only or whether they're holistic client you know providing that communication is those little 1% ad values that if if another advisor came up to them or you know in the old days they would go to the bank and and the bank would try to poach them um with their insurance products they're probably more likely to stay with you because you've got those other elements that is not just insurance so I think those key points are very critical in making sure clients are a lot more sticky for your business and and a lot more long-term f as well absolutely and I just you know I I might be a little bit biased because I was a risk only adviser for 15 years but I I just there's such as you you yourself said there is such an opportunity in Insurance still as you said a lot of advisers risk only advisors have left are leaving the market there is a massive Gap there but there's opport Unity for all different types of advisor so if you're a younger adviser coming into the profession insurance is an excellent place to start if you want to crash course in financial advice start in Insurance you will get to know people you will get to know product you will get to know everything about the process if you're an existing risk advisor who is you know retaining risk and only wants to do that people are leaving in droves there are there is so much opportunity for you there if you're a holistic advisor who wants to do more risk there's so much opportunity there too and I think that risk is a lot of work insurance is a lot of work in a in a range of areas it's people work and it's it's admin work as we've highlighted and it sounds very simple and I'm making it sound very simple but if you invest the time in scalable processes risk can still be very profitable and also be a great experience for you your team and your clients um but I think where it can fall down for advisers of all types is the processes and the systems in place to make sure that it is a good experience for everyone that's sort of how I how I've seen it play out for for for other advice practices yeah and I definitely think that um if advisers are coming into the industry and they do have potentially more of an investment or a superation background that can actually be a real big advantage in regards to the RIS side of things because it does provide a lot of knowledge in regards to policy structure and policy ownership what you can and can't do through superation um if you've got a superation or investment background you've probably got um some knowledge around super you know self-managed super funds um um trustee requirements all those sorts of things so you know if we look back and go back years and years ago when we had some of those you know I remember going to a lot of PD days and a lot of the the old risk is you know a lot of them wouldn't keep up to speed with um legislation changes um structuring changes even product changes if you can be all over product um and the way that that can benefit one client compared to a different one when you come across those policies all of a sudden you've got a an advantage on top of that other advisor then um having that extra knowledge and having that Financial background behind you can actually be a real big benefit to going into the risk side of things if you're not already there so um as you said there is a ma massive Gap and there will just be more and more of a gap we know that advisor numbers aren't really incre in at this point in time unfortunately and so there is a massive Gap there we know that the banks have gotten rid of all their advisors there are a lot of clients out there walking around with no advisor at this point in time um and if I go back and look at my own experience the first firm I ever worked in was self-funded retirees now they don't need insurance um it was a boutique firm that specialized in self-managed superf funds self-funded root fires um there was a lot of Rec contribution strategy work there was a lot of technical work around about pensions and and income streams and that sort of thing nothing to do with insurance but it gave me a really good background of understanding the technical side of things of superation the superation system um and how that that can then work from an insurance point of view so again I think that if you've got potentially that technical background it can really add value if you're doing the RIS side of things yeah and look I think you're exactly right and I think that you know you can't be an adviser and not have a technical background right like even when I was holistic sorry when I was a risk only advisor you know the amount of information and knowledge that I had around taxs super all those sorts of things it goes both ways so the holistic advisers already have that knowledge too it's just making that jump into oh I need to know about medical stuff and oh filling out insurance applications but it's not it's not necessarily a knowledge Gap leap um I I think in a lot of ways we both types of advises risk early and holistic both have quite a foot in each other's camps coming back to your point I think it's definitely just more of a process I think I think a lot of advisers get overwhelmed with the process of a filling out a lengthy application and if we again know go back to what I initially said where you look at the process of say investment in superation work once the client's happy to go ahead you Lodge the the the superation work and it's done right whereas with insurance you you've gotten the the sale over the line but then you have to do the application get through underwriting put the policy in force inform the client that all comes about with process um and it also comes about obviously with um having the knowledge of what questions to ask if a client does disclose medical information what additional questions do you ask off the back of that now um I know with yourself and I back in the the good old days um there was actually a lot of there was actually a lot of training that insurance companies actually did I mean um I remember with with a number of companies you actually had to sit a test to be able to provide um the product advice um and that would be you know a number of maybe a half day going through their actual product in depth um I think that um those new advisors or advisers who aren't astute to to doing a lot of risk is simply to lean on the the business development manager and that simply might be a case of getting them to come in for one day a week over over a month or something like that and even get your Administration team involved which is what we've always done um you know getting them involved so everyone knows the process it's not just one person in the office and that's what we sort of pride ourselves on is that I know what process involved I have you know I've sort of let go of obviously the ins and outs in the dayto day I don't know which form to Lodge where but I know the pro process um but I think everyone that is involved in that risk side of things be it the advisor the admin the junior advisor needs to know what that step-by-step process is um and if you don't have someone that you can lean on that's got that experience simply going to and you know a number of insurance companies and and getting some of that support in regards to underwriting and questions to ask and how do you Lodge the application all those sorts of things once you know that the daunting task of lodging insurance is then gone um and I think that's the big hurdle especially for investment advisors or new people coming in is going oh my God this is scary I have to ask these people about really in-depth health questions but at the end of the day it's just about being professional being open and honest making the clients understand you're under the Privacy Act you're not detailing anything anywhere else this is going straight to the insurance company so having that process and leaning on the on different insurers for that support is key because you know what 10 15 years ago they used to they used to do that day in day out that was just part of um part of coming in the industry and obviously a lot of that um has gone unfortunately yeah and I think there are a lot of resources available to new advisors existing advisers of all different types across these these questions these areas that we might need a bit of ADI advice ourselves in uh what do I do when so we've we've had some really really great discussion around you know how process is key and consistency is key and all that sort of client experience so one thing that I want to come back to with client experience when we're talking about how we can make sure our clients insurance policy remains in force is having those difficult conversations you and I and all of our listeners know that cost of living is increasing pressur is increasing Legacy products are premiums are increasing premiums are increasing on everyday products H how do you have those difficult conversations with clients because there's going to be at least one at renewal time who's very unhappy with their premium increase so how do you have those difficult conversations um yeah you're exactly right I mean no one wants to pay more for insurance um and a lot of the times even when people come to see you one of the goals is obviously to reduce the cost of their insurance right um but yeah we are at a critical point in the insurance industry World um not just for new policies but more particularly probably Legacy contracts and even if new advisors are coming into into the industry you might be taking over those Legacy contracts as the servicing advisor and as I said before it's not uncommon to see 25 35% increases especially around income protection and disability cover um what we do with our clients is being open and honest in regards to why those increases has come about um a lot of the times people might be confused and go well it's the advisor's fault that the premium's gone up right it's like no it's not our fault um but I think it's about and again I come back to Haring on to this word about education but for us when we provide this annual report if there has been a significant increase we're educating the client on why that is and we'll actually you know in our um not just the body of our email communication but also on our annual reports we're actually detailing why premiums have gone up over the last number of years and this is a combination of let's take income protection as a perfect example we know that pretty much every insurer in Australia has not made money on an income protection contract for last seven eight consecutive years why is that mental health claims have have gone from 8 to 10% to 30% Capital requirements that APPA requires for insurance companies have have increased significantly um the the investment return that they're getting on those Capital requirements has decreased um so we know that the profitability from an insurance company point of view um has decreased quite significantly probably over the last decade um and so it's relating that client uh or or giving that client back that information as to at the end of the day there's there's only so many ways that insurance company can get back in the black and and one of them is is increasing premiums that's the quickest way another one is obviously pulling the lever in regards to underwriting um product is another one how you know does that become more restrictive and we saw that with legislation change in 2021 with the government on on income protection and obviously that came about because of the profitability basically we know that that Asic and AFA were looking at the industry and says well hey if you guys don't don't change things we're not going to have an income protection industry in the next 5 years because it's just not going to work so if you've got business clients I think it's very easy to relay to them um because they are business mined to say look at the end of the day the insurance product is is a business as well they need to make money to be able to continue to pay out claims the reason why these claims have or the reason why the premium has gone up 25 30% is because of these half a dozen reasons and actually educating the client in regards to why that is and if if you're a business if we look at a product and we've got life TBD trauma and income protection and if out of those four or five products you've got one being life insurance which is your profitable one and your tpd is now a break even to a loss your tpd is a trauma uh is a is a break even to a loss and your income protection is definitely a loss of course you're going to put up premiums and and and that would be a similar case in your own business if you've got four or five elements and only one of those sectors is making money unfortunately you're going to have to put up premiums across the board um so again educating the client firstly in regards to why has that premium gone up significantly more than traditionally what that age-based increase should be um secondly then um making the client understand and go well yes there is an increase what can we potentially alter that's going to make this practically affordable for you going forward now at the end of the day it would be great if every client could have $2 million worth of trauma cover it would be great if we could ensure everyone with all the bells and whistles on an income protection contract but we know that practically it's not affordable to do that so we have to come back and look at the client situation again we do a lot of the work behind the scenes before we actually provide the annual report to the client and again that's having a great relationship with with accounts and having Mutual clients but have a that's ten situation and especially when we're looking at Legacy contracts with income protection you know can we potentially look at options where we can make alterations where you've got a 20 25 30% increase are there options there where we can basically remove that whole increase for this year on a PO policy alteration so you're still keeping the cover in place but it's just alterating certain elements of your risk portfolio totically affordable going forward so that you know that that policy is now not going topse it's going to stay in force and that could be simple things like waiting period alterations agreed value to Indemnity especially if that Indemnity contract is a three-year pred disability definition um taking out bells and whistles on certain income protection policies um is the client in an age where they may no longer need the trauma reinstatement option um are they in their 50s the likelihood of them having two trauma events potentially before the age of 60 or 65 would be bloody unlucky so is there those sort of elements where you might be saving 10% here 15% there day three accident options is a great one for manual workers are they now at a point in their business where they no longer need that day three accident option have they transitioned from the guy that's on the tools to the guy that's running a a business where they're no longer on the tools so they can go a 30-day waiting period so I think it comes back to being open and honest and transparent about why that increase has has happened making the client understand why why it has increased it's not you as the advisor that's increasing it it's it's these elements not just with this insurer it's it's across the board um and here's the comparison quotes to to show you that it's not just your policy I haven't picked the most POC most expensive policy in the market um look here's some comparison quotes and and it can a lot of the times be evident that there is no major significant saving because every insurer unfortunately is in the same boat and so again educating the client and being open and honest to make them understand why these increases have come about and then off the back of that it would be a discussion with the client to say well you know what I wouldn't like a 30% increase so what would I like to do to help reduce that by 20% or 30 % to get it back to a more practical level what we were paying last year I think you know we you're right we keep com back to this word education because it's it's relevant and it underpins everything that we do with clients whether it's advice or sorry whether it's Insurance advice or or or investment advice it isn't just here client this is our advice by you know it is this ongoing education piece and I think you know off the back of that it's also giving you the advice the opportunity to set expectations with your clients early on and just flag and say hey this is how our relationship is this is what you can expect this is blah blah and also I hate to use this this terminology but it's training our clients it's training clients with the expectations you know that this is how we operate this is how the profession operates this is how insurance companies operates and I think that you know if we do that it can soften the blow it might not mean that clients don't have any uh uh questions about why their insurance policy is increased but I think setting those expectations with the education and that sort of thing can at least really remove that emotional reactive layer that can often happen when we open up our renewal notice and it's a 40% increase say right I did see some stuff from Hayden about this I'm still a bit oh what do I do but I'm just going to pick up the phone and call him and have a discussion about rather than a you know I can't afford this this is ridiculous insurers so I think that all of that is is absolute gold and I know it sounds simple and it is once you've done it a few times and once the processes are there I think that it is actually quite simple but if you as an advisor or as a business don't have these processes in place it can take time to invest to get those processes in place but it's absolutely invaluable so yeah and I think um again if you've got that process in place where you can communicate to clients on a on a large scale for something that affects all of them um and I know that um if we take the what's going on in the income protection industry is a perfect example you know we communicated to our clients a number of years ago about what changes were occurring from a legislation point of view why they are changing for these reasons and again we we harped on about profitability um we were already starting to see a number of Legacy products have significant increases and we know that if we you know we go back to um you know when you an advisor it was quite easy to sort of project we go back 15 20 years ago was quite easy to project what age what sort of increase you were likely to get you know hey by the time you it hit 50 look industry standard you're probably going to cop a 10 to 12% increase there while you're in your 40s it might be 7 to eight you know while you're in your 20s it might be 5% um that's all gone out the window because of of the profitability issue from a claims point of view so it is about getting on the front foot and giving the client that expectation up front to say look un fortunately these increases are coming down the line um we're going to have to have those discussions about um you know do we trim back some cover we still need the cover but hey we we initially started with this with this life policy at you know $2 million do we still need that $2 million can we reduce it back to 1.5 hey that that trauma insurance that we started at 200 Grand that's gone up with with CPI hey it' be great to still have it at 250 or 300 Grand but you know practically can we reduce that back and we know that as the client goes on hopefully assets increase liabilities decrease that's that's obviously the goal there comes a point where you know reduction in cover is is what you should be doing for the client um and and whether that's reduction cover whether it's policy alterations you can make some very key changes especially to an income protection po policy and make it make a huge impact on premium from a decrease point of view without having to decrease the level of cover and it's just a few things tweaking here or there which you know is that real ad value to the client but yeah again I come back to what you mentioned about getting that process and getting information out to clients on a large scale in an efficient way so that they're prepared for what's what's going to come so it's it's not a shock to them absolutely Hayden I could talk to you all day you're you're a risk advisor after my own heart um but we we we probably should wrap up so look thank you so so much I think this has been a really valuable discussion for all types of advisers those who are you know entrenched in Risk those who are you know thinking or considering and getting into it I think there's a lot of information and and great tips and ideas that they can take away from here so Hayden thank you so much for your time today if any of our listeners uh wish to connect with you on LinkedIn I'm guessing they can find you there yes no problem at all and and happy to happy to help out anyone and happy to give back to the industry excellent thank you so much Hayden and thank you everyone for listening I hope you got some value out of today's [Music] session | Ensombl Advice Australia | UClfjx9OthaAN-S6tac3PYig |

DT8-n-itEjU | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DT8-n-itEjU | Eleven Deaf Men Helped NASA Leave Earth | in the late 1950s and early 1960s, so little was known about how humans would react to spaceflight that researchers had to get pretty creative. And one interesting moment of creativity was recruiting deaf participants for various motion sickness studies. This series of test was done cooperatively between NASA and the US Navy, and it might sound a little bit weird but it actually makes a lot of sense when you consider where motion sickness comes from within the body. It all comes down to the vestibular system, which is the system inside the inner ear that's responsible for balance and all kinds of sensory information about movement and orientation in space. Sensitive nerve and hair cells react to the movement of fluid inside the inner ear to give our brains information about motion, balance, and even spatial orientation. Some scientists still think there might be multiple causes for motion sickness, but one of the most commonly agreed-upon causes is called "sensory conflict theory." Think about when you read in a car if you get motion sickness. Your eyes looking at the book don't see any movement but the fluid inside your inner ear is aware that you're moving forward. This sends conflicting information to your brain, you get nauseous, and then you throw up, which is deeply unpleasant for anybody. A similar thing happens in space when astronauts get space sickness. The vestibular system suddenly doesn't have the same cues of up-and-down or motion because they're weightless, but the eyes see things as being quote-unquote "normal" and you can still read a book so you still get that conflict of information that can lead to nausea and vomiting, which is what nobody wants in space. Not only can you not exactly air out a spacecraft very easily, but if that liquid clumps up and gets into a control panel... that can be a very bad day for electronics. Not to mention that means that you can't do spacewalks, and it means that you'd have to shift around the schedule to account for a sick astronaut. NASA knew this could be an issue and set about trying to understand how people react to stimuli that can invoke motion sickness, things like high gravity acceleration and then zero gravity. To understand the broad spectrum of how people might react to motion sickness or of these situations that could invoke motion sickness, NASA tested 11 deaf individuals. Now the way they became deaf is really important here. Of these 11 deaf men between the ages of 25 and 48, all but one was deaf after childhood bout with spinal meningitis. Spinal meningitis can, among other effects, cause lasting damage to the vestibular system of the inner ear by killing those sensitive nerve and hair cells that we need for that sensory information about balance motion and spatial orientation. That meant that these men had the vital system involved in motion sickness -- the vestibular system -- damaged and they were theoretically completely immune to motion sickness. So NASA tried to make them motion sick! There were a series of tests done with these men throughout the 1960s and some of them sound really pretty awful. In one test four men were put into a room where the walls spun at 10 revolutions per minute for 12 straight days, and not one of them got motion sick. In another test a number of the deaf men were put on board a vote with 20 men who could hear (so their vestibular system was intact) on a boat that was sailing in very choppy waters off the coast of Nova Scotia. The men played cards and generally felt fine while 15 of the 20 men who could hear all got violently ill. In fact, the deaf man had no motion sickness, not even when the choppy waters got so scary that they all feared shipwreck! Even the panic couldn't induce any kind of nausea in these men. Another test had them floating around in the infamous vomit comet, the plane that flies parabolas to give you short bursts of weightlessness and it's called the vomit comet because most people throw up. But these men didn't throw up and when researchers tested their urine after the flight for the presence of stress hormones they found none whereas the men who could hear who did the same test did have raised levels of stress hormones in their urine. So it really did seem like these men were just completely immune to motion sickness. It was a very odd and very unique and very interesting series of tests that NASA did in cooperation with the naval school of aviation medicine in the 1960s. And ultimately these 11 deaf men played a massive and unsung role and helping get humans off the Earth.

1IF4Vt9xc2A | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IF4Vt9xc2A | OriginMc | Episode 22 | MOST NOOBY TACTIC EVER? + I'M BLIND? | Let The Taste they hit the [Music] ground hey what is going on guys it is and appears we have a One V one with this guy right here so we're just going to pod up and um see what we could do and then I did not mean to do that so yeah in case you guys are wondering I do have a stuffy nose oh what do you mean need Fire Res all right so in case you guys are wondering I do have a stuffy nose and I apologize for that um this video is actually pretty rushed it's pretty late tonight and I have to upload this tomorrow so I have to export it and I have to upload it like quick so in case like if it's very short I'm sorry but I promise that the next origin episode will be above 15 minutes so yeah if this one's under like 10 minutes I'm sorry it's just cuz it's kind of rushed so yeah but oh we're going to one one this guy and I gu SP I swear I did not mean to fall but we're going to try to get this guy and um I don't know how I feel about it but scab actually like went down to um 1.7 like the main reason why I wanted to play on that server was cuz it was 1.8 like I know I could still play on 1.8 but like if so one person plays on 1.7 the person that plays on 1.7 is honestly going to win so we're going to see if we can get this kid and oh he do Dr the pot I'll take that oh I guess not I don't know why he wouldn't go after the pot like what if it's a like a battle of like the one pot and whoever has that last one pot wins like then I would win you know since I picked it up so oh he gets debuffed me I think he debuffed himself I swear like honestly I'm not going to lie so I can't believe he did that so newbie I hate when people do that so let's go let's go mate oh oh oh oh oh okay let's go so now we have to like redink this I'm just going to throw that just in case so I was going for the NOP but he like debuffed me and that was printing me out like a like a bage so hopefully he does not have any more of those regions we have four of ours so we should be fine but that's on point so guess let's hope that he does not anymore yeah this guy's not very good so we should be able to take him out so oh he has to eat food I'll let him eat food yeah I'll let you recover even though you debuffed me so um that like I feel always bad for people that don't have slashy well on the server nobody has slashy but like I never have to eat food cuz I'm a YouTuber and stuff like that but I'm pretty sure that the lowest rank never has to eat food so whenever I'm one to be oneing someone I just like let them eat food just due to the fact that I feel bad and stuff like that and um because it's harder for them to even get armor like I could just type a command to get armor and like I just feel bad when people have to eat food so I like always try to like let them eat so but I do not know why I get through two pots but it's all right so we're just going to try to get this guy and um I'm actually really liking the lower since or the lower fov kind of digging it so I'm in Pro three this episode so let's just hope that this guy does not have four Unbreaking three cuz that would be quite unfortunate I think I'm in kid Elite that's I guess God on type kid Elite and then I guess bot and pots and then I had started recording so I hope that we could win this fight or this fight my helmet's already at 102 so oh those hits definitely helped um I do not think he has any region to to be completely honest with you and as I said that he get debuffed me with it so we're just going to run for a bit and we're going to let this run out and we're just going to reug another one so oh did I not get it oh rip so all right you want to go let's go M I'm Not Afraid yeah I don't even know if I should like let him eat food anymore like I was going to be a nice guy and you know let let him eat some food but not anymore so I do not know how this guy's helmet is not broken that's getting me kind of scared oh I guess heard it break there we go so I like his skin I'm not going to lie I'm digging it he has like a little Sweat Band I used to have one of those on my skin and then it's a little duck I think so a GF um I kind of like his skin not going to lie so we do not need the food and we got his head and I don't think that we want that really either so what was he wearing I he's wearing platform Breaking 2 where did that all go I don't know where it went where did it go oh well I guess I only got perform breaking two with a sh five sword that's not that bad um Helm I only I only got the legs though so good fight to him my H is on him 43 and he had prop for breaking two so pretty good fight I don't know if his home was prop for breaking two though so cuz it was like four hearts and boom good fight so um good fight to him he's a pretty cool guy it seems like so we're just going to bank this stuff um we should probably repair it oh wait all the stuff is right here what am I talking about my blinds I don't even know what's going on so yeah it looks like it only his helmet broke so 43 43 OH 43 and it was Unbreaking one so there we go and um we're just going to stash this stuff away oh he had prop for breaking three yeah he had much better stuff than me so I'm just going to take his goodies and um you know you know we're just going to trade him out so good fight to him and yeah we're just going to take his stuff and swap it out cuz the stuff is a bit better and I was only wearing this cuz this is my kit so you know um where is this so we're going to put this on going to bank this we're going to fix it first of course then we're just going to go like that and then where the helmets at where the helmets at are they over here what's going on on my keyboard like wasn't working for a sec so just going to go like that wait why did I grab that out oh yeah this is broke I'm just like really hyper right now it's pretty crazy so um let me see here we are just going to bank this right about we're going to fix it SL fix and then like that so I will be back we have another CP I'll see you guys then guys my stuff or my stuffy know just got like so much worse and I didn't even know that this was a warp warp apulo oh it's actually a warp that's pretty cool but anyways my Stu know just got like so much worse like it's pretty crazy so that's we're going to PO up here and he get Splash me the regen too so this guy looks like a noob if you ask me but anyways my St is just horrible I can't even believe it so we're going to try to get this guy and I oh my I've been messing up in my inventory like I usually warm up before I uh PVP and I warmed up for about 15 minutes on K and I was just messing up my inventory constantly so I don't even know about this warp this is pretty cool and now who's that okay he doesn't look like too scary if you ask me and then we're going to try to get this guy right here and um oh good thing it didn't give me with that region too why is this guy like throwing a speed like every second like I don't know if he knows what he's doing but I do not like fighting on these stairs so we're just going to go down here you going to follow let's go down here so like honestly if I on the server I just make a he's Bo me are you kidding but if like I own the server I just make a perfectly flat warp it goes to PVP and like that would probably be the most used warp because I don't like pvping here it's like not fun so we're just going to go straight after this guy cuz that guy's on the stairs so we're going to try to get this guy C him out he looks as if he's almost dead oh I was he had to be really close let's C him out come on oh and he probably didn't have region how did they not die die freaking IR kid so he has a gap oh and I cannot click fast right now come on please please I'm getting in Focus mode how did he eat a gap or what what are you going to say I don't know what's going on like I'm getting called out cuz like I was going to One V one that Z guy but since he's a default I didn't think that he had armor so I went going one one that boss kid and then um why has po but I go on that boss kid instead and call a [ __ ] and then I don't know what happened to that boss kid he just like left so we're going to see if we can get this guy and this is probably going to be the last clip of the video and I'm liking the skins on this episode like I like this guy's eyes they're freaking huge and oh God am I getting 2V1 yeah I definitely am getting 2V1 so what I'm going to do wait hold on yeah I'm definitely this guy's like in the ground so for one I think he'll get out if we go in the water go in the water oh I guess not so I have no idea how to get like out of this place so uh that's that I'm getting pretty nervous get get out of here all right we're going to try to take this 2 one but what we're going to like have do no matter what is get to the Wilderness so we're just going to scale this really quick and that's oh there's that Z guy so um how do they not hit me oh God I I got to get up the stairs I have no idea how to like get out of here I've never been down here before so we're going to try to get out and I don't know how they keep on getting some like so much 1.7 on me that's pretty crazy so we're just going to climb up here and hopefully that Z got there's a lot of diamond gets here now like I was trying to find a fight for like 10 years I couldn't find one but now there's like so many Diamond people so where you going BD fight him let's go mate how is he not dead oh give him that 1.7 and by the way guys you're supposed to click like holy God holy [ __ ] the damn that gave it to me I got to get out of here like I just want to like figure out how to get out of here in case like it like comes bad and this guy's like freaking wrecking me so we're going to try to get him and we have to re like regen up so this is becoming a big whole cluster like you know cluster f word if you ask me like I like I started out one be oneing like one guy then another guy then a spring came in so I left him now I'm one be oneing this guy like I just do not know what's going on like it's pretty crazy all right I just knocked him off of his pots this guy is definitely a default so it probably would not be a bad idea to Target him so I guess we're just going to stay on this guy for a bit yeah this guy's potting like crazy so it doesn't have very good armor so as we're going just going to try to knock this guy out then maybe fix hand and then go into another fight think that's pretty solid idea so oh come on I do not like this water like why would they add that such a bad idea oh who's the [ __ ] now mate come on oh come here die die die die die how is he not dead I I do not understand this guy's pretty good though I'm not going to lie he's definitely better than the average pvper um so we're just going to go like that and do I I have to repot in like 20 seconds that's no fun so I have no idea what my helmet's on come back and by the way guys I don't know if I like mentioned this before but you are supposed to click slow when you're 1.7 in someone so you're just supposed to go like click click why can I not hit him but you're just supposed to go like click click click and that that's just like due to the fact that um I don't know why cuz like I honestly have no idea why but that's what you're supposed to do so you're guys supposed to go like click click click and then you're going to like one like 1.7 of them for like 10 years so we're going to try to get this guy and we are almost at a regen so yeah and I have no idea if you could like get out of here or not please do not hit me all right cool you didn't hit me who are you Boss all right hey boss you want to be friends let's be friends yeah all right so I don't think that this guy knows how to get out of here either but we're going to chase him cuz he's obviously trying to warp yeah you're not getting out of here you're not going to call me a [ __ ] then get out huh so you want to click slow oh that was really really bad so come here come here so click oh well not in like okay but not in like this situation you don't like want to click so but like once you're directly behind him like when you're scaling the the side you want to click as fast as you can cuz like you want to get all the hits like this situation if I could have hit him that's when you would want to like click slow so we got this guy was he in he was prob breaking three damage he better armor than me so you want to go all right you're up next all right let's try to get this guy really quick so um I want to see that zyro like person talk crapping shat so we're going to try to get this guy now and then um whoa I'm just going to flung everywhere I have really really bad Ms right now so what do I have I I have one more region pot so we're just going to get that on our bar and then we're going to go and try to get this guy where did he go all right so boss what did he die what the heck is going on like I think that he died that patch guys so now we're going to try to take out our original 1 V one Target and you cannot PL in here I don't think if you can then it be just be like that's pretty ridiculous cuz I wanted to know how to get out of here before so I'm pretty sure that you can't fix hand in this area which is pretty good and now we're going to get all this loot like Co got loaded on the goods on this one so we're just going to dump out all this crap that we happen to get and um I guess that was a pretty good fight not going to lie so we're just going to get like all these pots on our hot bar so that we could throw them out and loot pretty fast so yeah anything else is that a gap no I think that's the stuff that I threw out yeah I'm pretty sure get out of here oh so if he came back to get his stuff he's a donator so he's shouldn't be too desperate for some items but we do not want that we do not need two stacks I still up the bow ah this is a struggle looting this is why like the item filter on Deon was so cool and um yeah so I think I got everything so uh good fights to them so GFS and then we're going to go Bank up Bank all this stuff and end off the episode unless someone else is here so we're just going to get our stuff ready whoops what am I doing so if anybody else is here then I guess we're going to fight it but oh hey what's up bro you ain't getting out what's up bro thanks for the stuff mate oh you're going to PO up while he's hacking let's go come on oh got him so GF to him and then what do he have on diamond all right there's a leg so just going to pick this stuff up and I screw it out get out of here so um oh I thought he threw a region to on me like that's a really big thing on the server oh it's crap arm but that's a really really big thing on the server is it's doing that so I don't not think anybody else is here so um yeah and I'm sorry if my commentating has been like super super bad this episode just not like I have a really really bad s nose and it's like super annoying so almost thought that I God I can't even talk but I almost thought that that guy was diamond for a sec so yeah I apologize for the crappy commentating I thought that the PVP was pretty decent though so we're just going to go bank so home V home V and we got another inventory of loot which is pretty good we're going to throw out all the bad stuff though cuz we do not really want it so we not need that so actually we didn't get that much stuff if you like actually like realize um and look at it like we didn't get that much like we probably got like a set or two and breaking three so yeah it wasn't that bad it was definitely worth it so we threw out all that stuff though so that was a big old waste of time so I'm not going to like organize it and fix it all right now let do that after the video so hope you guys enjoyed and everything like that make sure to leave a like on the video that just be awesome and I hope you guys enjoyed expect the scavenger video uh what day is it on Friday yeah that's one we'll be and hopefully a 1 V one up on Sunday and then the prison series should be up should uh next week so look forward to that should be awesome guys so I hope you guys enjoyed as always my name is and I'll see you guys next time so yeah peace out | SrNova | UCFl44APUetJDUV-b61pF0zA | 2015-03-09 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 3,545 |

dLEjWtHSvtM | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLEjWtHSvtM | DCUTV News: Changes in the radio sector | the Minister for Communications Denis knocked and recently proposed to relax radio advertising caps to allow radio stations to broadcast more than ten minutes of advertising per hour in light of this announcement we spoke to professionals and experts in the industry as well as radio listeners to ask their opinion on the matter I would have a lot of a lot of faith in the standard of radio and I understand our broadcasting so I think you know the producers are gonna be working hard to try and keep the balance between actually funding funding the shows and letting the presenters keep the flow of the actual show itself that's going to be the big problem of trying to keep the balance between the two so by increasing the time yeah it's going to impact the show but there's gonna be a lot of people working hard to try and keep their the standard of the show the same people are keyed in and they're listening than one or two extra minutes I don't know that that would make a big difference and of course I would expect the broadcaster's on to compensate for that by offering more engaging content but I know there's a fair number of people who at least for music radio think that there is already an overwhelming amount of radio advertising it's tough to say I mean obviously even they would probably be unhappy with the news but whether or not the actual increase would have any particular effect on people's listening habits I'm not sure the afternoon show with karl james of midlands 1:03 it is karl james here from the afternoon show and Midlands 103 effective advertising makes people remember your name advertising around special events like GAA matches are key to both radio and the advertiser there's a guaranteed audience and it's an easier sell for the station increasing the time per hour on these occasions with both win new advertisers plus reduce the chance of offending key clients by refusal bring in the new flexibility rule and help prevent further breaches remember the overall cap of 15% between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. remains so everyone's a winner we afternoon show with Karl James three so by increasing the space paper ties of time stop means there's more income gone into radio stations which means they can actually do more with the money they get for example spin might be able to feel the tires more to go up to more places or it could help them buy newer equipment let me do more things in the end thirty seconds longer of advertising might increase like how good the quality is of their shelves at the radio days conference in Dublin this week the minister confirmed that he is considering an offer from the IBA to change the ten-minute rule zowie Rhine DC TV news | dcumps | UCEnLsvcq1eFkSFFAIqBDgUw | 2018-03-07 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 485 | 2,693 |

H-9Lq_OnJ7M | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-9Lq_OnJ7M | Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra & The S-Pen | hey guys thunde here now this is the galaxy s21 ultra and this is an s-pen and you're thinking do they work together yes it does and you're going but that's for the galaxy note well not anymore so let's jump in and find out how [Music] so this is the new s pen it is larger in size and also feels like a regular pen and as you can see it's got a button on the side which is similar to the standard s-pen you find with the galaxy note series now what's different with this pen and the regular s pen is of course first of all the size so it is larger and longer and also has a bit more uh volume space for grip the other difference is that the regular s-pen from the note series has bluetooth functionality giving you bluetooth features which you will not find in this s-pen so that's something that is different there now the s-pen itself cost 39 this is the silicon cover case this case here retails with the s-pen for roughly around 79 dollars it's a silicone case it's got this nice side pocket here where you can put your s-pen in so you can just slide it in there and drop it doesn't charge it or anything like that you just basically just have a housing for your s pen and that's pretty much it uh you've got of course cutouts for your camera everything's kind of protected as flossy would say it's got some reasivity so when you drop it you can see you're fine nothing damages the screen there so you've got that with this uh with this case uh also with the case comes with the s pen tips and the tip changer so there are a ton of things you can do that are spent on the galaxy s21 and you guys are probably wondering about that wallpaper yes i have the links for you guys down below but the first thing you notice you do have that quick access menu for the s pen right there which you can basically tap and bring in if you zoom in a little bit closer you can see you've got a list of items and things you can do you've got your notes so you can go ahead and create notes on your s pen you can write you can draw you can say this is cool and it feels like an s pen which is which is nice so you've got that ability there you can go in you can view all your notes directly you can use smart select so i can go ahead and select what i just wrote boom and i can save that or i can do many things with it all depends so you can see the smart select tool let's go ahead close this out so you can pin that to screen so i have that pinned to my screen go back to the whole screen that's there you've also got the ability to screen write this is something definitely liked you can write on screen you can basically take a screenshot of something and then write on it so if we were to do this properly we go here you see this article we like it we want to make some edits you can go ahead and screen write and boom then you can say for instance go in select that maybe that pen and then you can write on the screen so you've got that ability built in and you have like messages you can go ahead and do that you can either pick from gallery take this wonderful photo of kiana reeves and then we hit done and then we can of course write a live message boom right there so i mean you get the idea of what this can actually do so you've got a ton of those features built in uh translators there you've got the pen up feature you can write on your calendar you can add more shortcuts as well so you tap that gives you a laundry list of things to add so you can also add in things like your games for instance and i do play a lot of call of duty so i can add that here so the next time i pull this up call of duty is right there so i've got that built in for me to do whatever i want to do now in terms of features for the s pen let's go into the menu system here believe we had it we've got a bunch of things i'm going to have my notes float up there so the s pen is on which means you can use the s pen with your device we've got show floating icons that's one feature you've got open air commands so if you hover around something you will see those commands you've got the sounds and then you've got tips now if you scroll up some of the shortcuts which is basically this menu i showed you earlier we've got show pointer when hovering air view is also activated creating notes with the pen button so basically you use this button by pressing and hold to create notes and then tapping on the screen so basically if i press and hold the button and i tap my notes open up so here you have it so the note screen has come back up and then i can create my notes and create whatever i want to so that's the only feature you have with the pen now some of you are probably wondering can you use the regular pen from the galaxy note series and that's it here so this is the pen for my galaxy note's 20 ultra and yeah as you can see i can use the pen and i will say this in terms of pen this feels a little bit more precise than this this feels like it's got a softer tip on the new s pen while the notes 20 s pen feels just a bit more like fine like you're using a you know fountain pen or something like that so this feels this feels just a little tighter feels better but in general though this s-pen works really well i do like the flow i like the way it works all that fun stuff here so i think this is a very useful functional s-bend now when it comes to the case with it you can see how easy it is to have the housing here and taking out your um your s pen uh the case itself is much wider than standard cases i'm going to take my leather case here just to show you uh some of the dimensions and we can bring that closer and you can see how it looks so it's a it's a thicker case you can see it's also got just a little extra space in here for housing the s-pen um and it also feels just a little bit bulkier while using it but still a nice case i think especially for this i like to see some third-minute third-party manufacturers make their cases for the s-pen in general but i think using this pen i think a lot of people will like it because functionality is pretty good if you go into your applications like you can see scrolling through instagram here using of course the 120 hertz display it's maximum now some of you are probably wondering can you use the s pen on the galaxy s 21 the answer is no so this is limited to the galaxy s21 ultra not the 21 so as you can see right below here 21 altered works the 21 no such functionality because this doesn't have the wacom matrix built into the display that's only available on the s21 ultra right here and not on the s21 so as much as i try to use it i cannot it doesn't even recognize it doesn't recognize as a touch as you can see my screen was getting was getting uh darker there so you can only do this on the galaxy s21 ultra not the galaxy s20 monster it's s21 users if you want to use their s-pen you've got to buy the s21 ultra and buy the s-pen separately as an accessory to use it so hopefully that gives you guys a full idea of what the s21 ultra is like with the s pen there are different functionalities you can use uh you've got of course your s notes and all the s pen features as we go back into our settings here just take a quick quick look at it all over again we see that of course we can do quite a few things with the s pen and uh it's a fun tool to use so if you have any questions or any comments let me know otherwise don't forget to like share and always enjoy entertainment | Booredatwork.com |

3tv85A4Q7ZM | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tv85A4Q7ZM | Strong Ion and Ion Gap | hello everyone and today we're going to discuss about strong and difference which I have already discussed before and about the anion gap now it will be very easy if you could actually have the acid-base distances described in this simple way so if there is a primary respiratory disorder there is chemical buffering there is a primary medic desire there is chemical buffering from primary respiratory disorder there is compensation is renal because respiratory system cannot compensate for its own disorders and which are a bit slow can take almost two to five days at times whereas for primary metabolic disorders compensation is rapid and occurs because of the respiratory system so if you become mastodic the respiratory rate will go up and wash out the CO2 uh if you are alcoholic respiratory will go down and you will start retaining CO2 and form arginines and bicarbons hydrogen ions will try to you know balance out the alkylosis but then life is not that simple so one of the methods of describing the acid-base balance uses this diverse method and this is about strong and difference and this is a very simple to explain by knowing what are these strong ions and weak ions so if you look at the compounds there are divided into electrolytes which dissociate easily and no other non-electrolytes that do not dissociate and these are the ones which contribute to the osmolarity so electrolytes that dissociate can be then classified into strong ions as strong ions then can be further classified as strong cations so these have a positive charge and strong anions that have a negative charge and then we also have some weak ions which then can be classified into volatile acids which are described last time which is many carbon dioxide and non-volatile assets which are basically albumin phosphates so this strong Islands um these are the ones which are dissociated easily and can by described through a Campbell ground so described by gamble so that's why it's called a gamble ground so basically this strong iron difference is a difference between the cations and the anions so the cations like sodium which is a main cation which you measure potassium which is very small in amounts in the extracellular fluid it's mainly a intracellular cation and then calcium and magnesium which are also present in very small amounts the anions which are of most important are the chloride and lactates and so the decrease in the strong difference indicates acidosis and this happens because this strong ions uh will squeeze the bicarb and does reduce it so this can be actually seen in this gamble gram so let's look at the left side where we have the cutouts which is mainly sodium and then we have the anions the chloride we have the bicarb and then we have albumin and lactaids now assuming electron neutrality and that is what it's all about and the gamble grams demonstrates that the ions that fill the strong iron difference between the strong cations and anions are primarily bicarbs and weak acids like albumin okay so these can be actually affected by strong iron difference so if like we said that there is decrease in the strong iron difference and there is acidosis and that occurs because that leads to reduction in the bicarb levels so the weak acids which are principally albumin and phosphate and they they dissociate partially and so they're not really strong ions and but they are good buffers okay albumin has got lots of negative charges uh circuit can hold and a lot of this cations you know like hydrogen ion is a cation so they can hold so they are actually good buffers so this again decreases in the Strongarm difference leads to increased total weak acid concentration and then can lead to acidosis whereas in the increase in the strong arm difference decreases total weak acid concentration and that leads to alkalosis so the principal element of the Strongarm difference are basically the sodium and the chloride isn't it so normal difference is basically around 35 milligrams per liter we know that sodium is around 40 140 milligrams per liter chlorides are 105 and the difference around 35 milligrams per liter so that is the strong ant difference so just knowing the sodium levels and chloride levels give us the idea of this strong and difference so they measured sodium minus the measured chloride minus 35 should be equal to zero so for equal so everyone in millikulin per liter change in the sodium minus the chloride difference the base axis will change by one Milli equivalent in negative Direction so for example a reduction in sodium can cause acidosis because there is relative increase in the chloride ions and it can happens vice versa so in the case of hypernatremia that can lead to alkalosis because there is a relative decrease in the chlorides so uh this is just another example so say for example hyponatremia and the sodium levels are 120 and then the sodium minus chloride base access effect can be measured as the measured sodium minus measuring chloride minus 35 so 120 minus 105 that is assuming the chlorides are normal minus 35 that is equal to 15 minus 35 that's equal to minus 20. so it's a negative strong and difference that indicates there is acidosis so there is relative hypercloremia despite normal chlorides in this situation again so what's the effect of the lactate so lactate we know is generated from anaerobic metabolism so apart from the chloride it is the other strong anion which is present so in the gamble gram you can look at it it's present on the right side okay so lactic base axis effect is taken as 1 minus measured lactate and so the normal lactate levels anything about 2 is considered as normal so when lactate increases so 1 minus say if the lactates has gone up to five you get the difference is -4 so it makes the strong arm difference negative so because making making a negative that means there is going to be acidosis so the other weak acid which I am already described was albumin okay so what is the effect of albumin on the um the strong arm difference so if you look at the effect of the albumin this can be described as one fourth of the aluminum concentration in gram per liter so if you look at the normal album levels that is around 42 grams per liter and then the ionic concentration difference on the base axis is 1 4 of 42 that comes to around 10.5 yeah milligrams per liter so approximately 10. so the acid-base effect of alvarian changes can be calculated from the difference between the reference value and the ionic concentration corresponding to the patients have been a level so at this I will go a little bit more in details and so the effect like I've said so you have to know what is the normal concept that's for it we already know and then you look at the measured albumin what is the lab value of ultimate and you look at the one for the soil for every 10 gram decrease in the plasma albumin the base axis will increase by 2.5 okay so maximize and makes the patient more alcoholic so if alumin drops uh to 22 then the base axis is one-fourth of the 42 minus 22 so that is a difference of 20 so the albumin has dropped by around 20. and so one-fourth of that is around five so like I said for every 10 grams it reduces by 2.5 so 2.5 times 2 that is around 4 plus 5 okay so base X is as actually gone up to plus five so it is making it a more alkalotic okay and so if you look at the total effects of Base axis and other ions then base axis is the sodium minus the chloride effect so this is easy so we can actually get the sodium and chloride levels measured from the labs and then you need to look at the lactic effect and I've mentioned about that that how it is one minus selected level Albion albumin effect it is one fourth of the uh the standard albumin which is around 42 minus and the measured albumin and the other effects okay so here if you look at it if you put some values to that they so we have the sodium minus slower and minus 35 and because 35 is a normal difference between the standard sodium levels and chloride levels and the one minus selected is the lactate effects and one fourth of the 42 minus the measure are given Plus for the other ions so and the first one is say for example in a in the example I've uh before you know described where we have the sodium difference of 10 and between sodium and the due to lactate it was fine and I believe you know of 22 and then we have the base axis is minus 20 minus 4 plus 5 and that comes to minus 20 plus 9 that is minus 11. now assume that from the blood gas you know you have done on the patient uh they measured base access is minus eight in that case the difference we have from the uh what has been measured and the one we have calculated we have calculated that this patient should actually have a base deficit of -11 but here what we actually are seeing that the measured base def is from the blood gas was minus eight the calculate is -11 and that directly comes to plus three that means there are some other ions and this is quite possible that this could be maybe probably from say magnesium levels uh touching levels or other cations so the other lines can be now be calculated if we know what is the measured base axis and also from the uh what we have calculated from the sodium chloride effect from lactate and from the album in fact so albumin need to be measured from the labs so these are actually very very useful so if you look at the simplified Steward approach is basically says that base axis is equal to sodium levels from the lab minus chloride levels from the lab minus 35 or you can say that and this this is what the sodium chloride difference is then from the lactate effect is 1 minus the lactate and from the albumin it is one-fourth of the normal albumin minus the measured albumin and plus the other ion so if you are measuring the calcium the Magnesium you can always add that to the base axis and then you can actually also see what your blood gases actually show so this is a simply find the approach so looking at the anion gap so an ion Gap also seems to be similar to steward uh approach you know looking at the stronger difference and both of these uh you know approaches they look at a law of electron neutrality is saying that the number of cations that is a plus ions and the negative ions should always match okay and they should actually difference should be zero but if there is a difference that means there is something else present okay that is what the anion gap actually means so this or actually anion gap is very useful in initial evaluation of metabolic acidosis so coming to the law of electronutility or the law of conservation of mass so total serum cation should always be equal to Totem zero serum and ions so cations like sodium potassium calcium magnesium should be equal to the bicarb chloride phosphate sulfates proteins which are organic and the negatively charged like albumin or organic acid ions okay which are of also negatively charged but in real life what we actually measure is only some of the cations and some of the anions so the main cation which is measured is sodium okay and so there are some other unmeasured cations which are actually present but these are in a very small amount and the other uh the major anions like I said is bicarbon and chlorides but there are minor ions like the phosphate the sulfates the negatively charged proteins or organic acids these are unmeasured anions and these are the ones we likely account from mainly for the anion gap so normal the uh your anion gap is equal to the unmeasured ions and ions minus the unmeasured cations but when we're also looking at the anion gap we are also looking at the cations that is the mainly sodium minus the anions which are basically bicarbs and chlorides okay so when we look at this is a nice way of depicting what could lead to a wide or a higher end Gap so first thing is looking at the actual difference of the sodium plus potassium that is the cation minus the chlorides and bicarbs what are the anions also we can look at the unmeasured ions and the unmeasured cutouts so if you want to at least see a higher Gap or if you see an eye Gap it it's quite possible that it could be because of increasingly measured cutouts so in hyperkalemia okay which can happen for example in renal failure hypernatremia which is not uncommon either so and this these are there or it could be reduction in the chloride or bicarbonate so if there is at least a patient has been losing loss of bicarbs a patient has got abdominal drains and pancreatic fistula or and there is loss through the urine of bicarbs so this will also increase the anion gap but they can also be a increase in the measured anions okay and or decrease in the unmeasured cations these can also lead to a wide or high an ion Gap and we like got to look into this so it's very difficult to otherwise think so we can have one way of looking like we looked at the gamble ground I try to look at different ways of looking how can we explain this anion gap so now we have the cation sodium and potassium on one side and then we have the chlorides and the bicarbs so can this so if we actually move the balance and the sodium and potassium will be actually behavior and they actually are moved and the chloride and bicarb syrup and this is what has lead to the anion this is because of the uh some of the unmeasured onions but what vehicle time to see is that it is not just a simple listening if we add some more unmeasured anions it does not equalize the Gap it actually increases the Gap this is because they are like pushing it up like from a spring okay it's like a spring so when you have increased and measured and ion added added then it will likely increase the Gap it won't decrease it and immediately measure uh on our cations then that's easy because uh they just drop the left side of the scale and the whole thing moves up so the green part is added to the uh the an answer and on Gap will increase and when you have more unmeasured cations added to the you know already measured an ounce uh sorry for the cations okay so the concentration on measure as like mainly we're looking at phosphate and sulfates and this is very very small so on average only two to three milligrams per liter and so there has to be something else added up or happening within the system for two and then Gap directly increase uh markedly okay so in real life the anion gap is just measured by measuring the sodium the bicarbon and the chloride and on average this Gap is anywhere between 6 to 12 millimoles per liter or you can actually say 12 plus or minus 4 millimoles per liter now if the anion gap actually increases then usually you would actually see the squeezing of the bicarb circuit so because directly are the main uh you know the like a buffers uh you can actually see it so one assets and the say for example early on increase they will combine with bicarb isn't it so they'll form carbonic acid and this will dissociate into water and carbon dioxide and you will breathe housing extra amount of carbon dioxide so the buffering initial buffering which actually happens in the extracellular fluid is going to be from the bicarbs and assuming the chlorides are going to remain normal and but this doesn't happens so a wider high iron Gap is diagnosed with the Assurance when the anion gap is more than 17 to 18 milligrams per liter so that's one of the first thing so the things that can actually lead to increase in the anion gap this can be the abnormal indigenous generation of Finance so this can happen in lactic acidosis like ibuprofusion typhoon lactic acidosis it can also happen in type 2 lactase whereas deranged carbohydrate metabolism it can happen because of ketoacidosis which can be from diabetes so you know from the history itself it can also happen in alcoholic ketoacidosis and also installation ketoacidosis they are also these are increased amount of anion generated it can happen because of renal failure acidosis where there is uremia or acute renal failure it can occur because of ingestion of vaccines toxins and drugs like methanol ethylene glycolic slate so there there are different mnemonics actually used by people to look at the high iron Gap that used to be mud boils and and there is also other one which I will likely talk in a minute now looking at the effect of what happens if there is a hypoalbonemia so what does it do to the base axis okay and we have actually already discussed this in this keywords uh you know method uh of the you know where they looking at strongman Gap so even though this is a weak acid but it is a good buffer because it's got lots of negative charges and because it's got negative charges and hydrogenance are positively charged or cations are positive charge it can actually attract a lot of these and so it becomes a very good buffer and like I have explained that the albumin base X is measured as one-fourth of the normal uh albumin level which is 42 minus the measured albumin level and so every for every 10 gram decrease in the uh you know the album level base axis increases by 2.4 and it becomes a more alcoholics here this is just a example I think this is again been repeated here now and the plasma and capacity lowers okay so base axis is increased and but the anion gap is increase so in terms of an iron cap it says that the when the albumin is actually you know reduced the anion gap is also reduced okay so uh here uh what the difference is that for every 10 gram of albumin drop below normal uh plasmaan Gap is lowered by four millimole for liter so it's easy to actually uh you know understand that or to remember that so low albumin lead to lower anion gap okay so as simple as that take uh so uh if we actually you know look at this this is another place um where and we can actually see a positive factor okay so uh we have got metabolic alkalosis and normally you wouldn't expect the anion gapped iron Gap because cyan anion gap is normally associated with metabolic acidosis but if there is likely contraction of excess alert fluid volume so that for example there's dehydration then the albumin concentration actually relatively increases so the as the albumin concentration increases and so does the anion gap okay so for every 10 gram increase in the albumin about normal uh plasma uh you know Ana and gabolic Chris web four millimoles per liter so when there is dehydration there is contraction of volume and the albumin levels uh relatively go up okay they're not actually going on in as such but they are just relatively because the whole volume is contracted so you can actually still find a wide or higher Gap in metabolic acidosis when there is a you know contraction of so in metabolic acidosis if uh sorry alkalosis if you see Iron and GAP uh think think of dehydration so the treatment there would be a volume expansion and you will see that will volume expansion the anion gap will likely normalize yeah okay so like I was saying that the a lot of uh you know mnemonics for the high iron and GAP and more recently the uh you know the uh the mnemonic uses gold mark uh so G is for glycols uh so it's lean and problem gyroclaw O is for Oxo Proline or pyroglutamic acid that is called uh lnd are basically lnd type lactates and M is for methanol A is for aspirin are for renal failure are for Rhabdomyolysis and key for ketoacidosis so these are the common causes for raised anion gap metabolic acidosis and so it's easy to remember with this mnemonic okay and this is exactly looking at the effect of lactic acids and how it can normalize so you use on the left side you actually see a normal iron Gap you got sodium of 140 and you got Pi carbon 25 chloros 103 and then you got the albumin so albumin is not going to change until like I said unless there is also a contraction of the excess volume so when lactates are added say for example the lactates uh Plus 10. right so they will squeeze the bicarb levels so bicarb levels now actually from 25 have come down to 15. so the total 99 Gap has actually increased to now 25. okay so there is increase in the anion gap by Plus 10. now what can happen is that because the the bicops already used and there can be in response they can be hyperchloremia okay so this will compensate for the con contraction of the bicarb level and this is normally seen in lot of situations and this is to normalize the anion gap so you can actually still see so there will be uh you know there is obviously loss of the bicarbs and because of the lactates they are being you know buffered the elected are buffered by the bar cups so at the same time the chlorides the chlorides are absorbed okay so in the in the kidneys the kidney tends to actually conserve the chlorides and you will likely see increase in the chloride levels on the blood gas is machines directly see that so yeah even if you actually see a normal pH normal anion cap and you see hypochloramine on the thing you still need to look at is is directly increase in the lactates and so always look for lactate so normal anion gap does not mean that there is no acidosis lactic acid is present so this is one of the easy way of actually looking at the metabolic acidosis so hyper alpinemia and lactic acidosis you can still likely have you know normal so you can actually have like there's unmasking can happen so we know that low albumin causes low an iron Gap and in lactic acidosis if there is so like they are in the presence of severe hypo albanemia which can happen in a condition like nephrotic syndrome or cirrhosis where so you expect a wide anion gap in lactic acidosis but because of the hypovinemia which has again lower the anion gap you can actually see normalization so always look at albumin levels as well and when you're looking at the lactic acidosis or in case of severe hypoallergenemia don't get you know you know I think that oh everything looks normal now they can be masking of the anion gap can actually happen even the presence of lactic acidosis so there is a term called corrected anion gap or AGC and this is where I try to actually look at the albumin and phosphates so the corrected anion gap is not just the difference between the sodium and the negative ions like chlorine backyard but it also takes into account the albumin and phosphate levels and the lactate so the correctional Gap is equal to sodium and potassium so here we again in Cadence we are also adding the potassium because this becomes important especially in conditions like renal failure and where the miracle increase minus the chloride and the bicarb so that is the normal anion gap and then minus two times the aluminum level in gram per deciliter plus 0.5 times the phosphate in milligram per liter or 1.5 times the phosphate and if the phosphate has been measured in millimoles per liter and minus the lactate level so this is called the uh adjusted or corrected an iron Gap okay so it's important to actually know that so uh when nanon Gap is more than 30 millimoles per liter and metabolic acid is almost invariably present okay if it is between 20 and 29 then almost two third of the cases you can assume that metabolic acid is present so it's a usual way of looking at metabolic acidosis anion gap is white in some of the etiologies of metabolic acidosis like we are always looked at Gold Mark and but it may not be in others okay so a wider hiring Gap helps to narrow down the differential diagnosis by eliminating the causes of normal and iron Gap metabolic acid is or magma so high iron Gap or hagma or white Island this are actually easy to understand so how can Italy have normal ion Gap in metabolic acidosis so what is magma we're going to look into this now okay is not uncommon so when there is loss of bicarb and they can be compensated to increase in the chloride level like I explained and because of that there is normalization can happen this is actually seen for example if there is diarrhea urethral diversions or biliary or pancreatic fistulas where there is a loss of bicarb this is compensated by the increasing chloride it can also happen in real a real condition like type 2 or proximal renal tubular acidosis now in the uh in the kidneys bicarbs are mostly 90 of the bicarbs are absorbed in the proximal tubular tubules and 10 percent are in the DCT so in that situation if there is losses of the bicarb increase losses there's no reabsorption of the uh you know bicups and then there is also what article the chloride absorption remains okay because occurs later on in the in the distance wheels and so the chlorides will be conserved and this will try to actually compensate for the loss of boycotts it can happens in certain kind of uh you know uh intoxications like with Tallinn or in with certain medications like Topiramate or you know Carbon Carbonic anhydrase Inhibitors like estazolamites so these all will lead to loss of bicarbs but and there is a composite rehabitical anemia so this normalization of the anion gap okay then they can be decreased renal acid excretion so this happens in early uremic acidosis uh type 1lacidosis say due to uh you know amphetrosine or lithium or zogen syndrome and type 4 renal tubular acidosis which happen due to hypertrustrianism or pseudo hypodusterism so in these cases as well there is a decrease renal excretion occurs of bicarb and because of the decreased excretion of bicarbs the anion gap because says it's because between the Cadence and anions and bicops not from the normal anions so there is reduction in the actually and the anion gap so the other causes where they can be still be acidosis but normal uh anion gap is like in patients uh we have fluid resistation with normal saline so this causes increased in the uh hyper um you know there's chloride levels are increased so there is hypochlorinemia but at the same time and the this is reducing the anion gap and same thing can happen with the you know the anionic uh amino acids containing the you know natural nutrition so hyper elementation and where there is increased amount in lysine Arginine hydrochloride these are all negatively charged you know amino acids or if there is administration of hydrochloride or ammonium chloride and then other agents sometimes have used in treatment so like cholesterolamine hepuric acid sulfuric acid now these These are normally some of them are actually are formed as part of the metabolism of amino acids within the uh we really would actually see you know hydrochloric acid been administered to patients ammonium chloride is used for treatment of alkalypses and not as normally but these can again these are situations where even though there is acidosis there should be expected acidosis but the anion is Gap is normal and so this is uh just showing a different way of looking why the what happens in hypochromic acidosis so what we're doing we are actually adding lots and lots of chlorides and because this is the chloride load is increasing but this is compressing there is increased losses especially in the kidneys so reabsorption of bicarbs is reduced so the amount of bicarb levels it goes down and this in hypochromic acidosis so and this is a nice way of actually looking at the anion gap and the changes that happen with the patients where they get a normal cell line for treatment of fluores as a fluid resistation there are situations where you can actually see negative or low an iron Gap okay and this can be caused by hyperchloremia and which are caused by high levels of cations and this can happens in like lithium toxicity and this is all negative charged it can actually happen in a situation where the calcium there is hypercalcemia or hypermagnesemia okay so these are cations are relatively increased and and compared to the anions okay so they can then there are actually you know in a situation software they can be a pseudo hypocholemia and this happens with bromona I had the intoxication that's because when you actually measure the chloride the you know the labs they detect this uh iodide and bromide Center chloro has chlorine so that's why you can actually get a pseudo increase in the hypochronic acids and this would narrow the gap between the cations and anions so you can actually have a a false uh you know falsely low or negative anion gap but so when you get that always look for you know other causes so is there you know hypercalcemia happening is there hypermagnesemia is a patient on certain treatment which can increase the bromide and iodide levels so you need to actually look at look at these situations so if you look at the normal anion gap metabolic acidosis happening from cedaria or renal tubular acidosis type 2 there is loss of bicarb and in this case the kidney tries to conserve the volume and this is done by actually conserving the chloride so because the kidneys are losing their negative ions and formal cover by carbs it will try to conserve it as a chloride so there will be a relative hypochloridemia when this situation occurs and this lead to normal iron Gap now in case of renal dysfunction there are two things so you are actually getting retention of hydrogenius because the kidneys are not able to excrete the hydrogen ions but at the same time there is impaired reabsorption of sulfate which are anions so these actually balances out the haryana and retention and this balance leads to a normal anion gap in renal dysfunction foreign in reality processes Type 4 and in hyperaldosteronism and there is a defective ammonia secretion so the uh the ammonium ammonia these are important for the urine uh they they are actually you know a good buffers in the system and this leads to the because there is a defective secretion then there is alkalization of urine occurs and so then again it leads to a normal an ungap metabolic acidosis so this is just a flow chart of situation when the there is acidosis but that cannot be detected by the anion so here there then you can actually go back to the strong arm difference and they might be able to actually explain so explain that so thank you for listening to this lecture and I hope so it is useful and this will again I will likely try to go through these again when we are talking about rest of the metabolic uh and respiratory dysfunction so acid-base imbalances and you know there will be more things like uh how the compensation occurs and we will also talk about mixed acid bed balances and so we're going to talk a lot more about other things thank you | Shiv Kumar Singh | UC7bFCGzE-TQLPc_fOwP8xaA | 2023-04-11 |

obviously it's the illuminated one this is a Illuminati confirmed right here don't worry though we're both in it so I mean it's you kind of we kind of run this [ __ ] I mean so yeah the lighting is gonna be there yeah blinding at times because whenever you're woke it's just you know it's love at night and no that's why you need the shade like you're blinded by that light you gotta you gotta balance that [ __ ] so yeah and then audio issues I don't know if it's a connection with whenever he was doing the livestream or whenever sometimes whenever you download stuff it doesn't download right and it's choppy so but I've been noticing a lot of people's videos there's a lot of weird connection issues going on lately with the interwebs on a lot of different levels micro and macro part of wonky and bizarre [ __ ] going on like I said in my previous one both polarities are being amped up so I mean what's gonna stick and and be more lasting and prevalent is what people decide to engage with do you let the [ __ ] fall fall away and pay attention to the good engage the clarity the heartfelt connections or do you get caught up in the [ __ ] drama in the [ __ ] show see I'm not gonna play very much of this there's a couple things I wanted to share some of my thoughts that came up and whenever I do things I don't remember know like what the [ __ ] gonna happen or even if I'm going to put them up I'm just I don't know I'm doing it to see what maybe when they come to be see if the muse wants to come in play the music for me and you so before I forget before I remember to forget one thing I wanted to talk about was I don't know if I'm gonna follow J Chris and that guy's channel but he's super big and caught up and we're not the body and it's it's to the extreme where like yeah he pays no attention to the body because according you know in in his mindset and view were not the body so that's not what's important what's important is what it's animating the body and this is this is a half-truth thing and I mean he's not doing it and saying it because he's well I mean who knows nowadays but I don't feel his intentions are to misdirect people even though that's what it's happening so one of the things that was touched upon here is different levels of engagement being embodied in an out of body and I'm coming from a place where all all levels of engagement are very necessary important so you can get a full spectrum view and vantage point to work from instead of just being on one side and seeing things from one vantage point being very embody embodied in the now in the present moment yes this is important but also it's you can get too caught up in and you start to ignore things that are also there in that moment in that present now with you because really it's all now was that ever existed that ever will exist are right now so you have access to all this so it's where do you want to put your attention to in this moment in the next moment it's a choice it's all the choice not necessarily you know quote-unquote right or wrong it's just what do you choose to engage with probably the worst thing that you could do I would say is to discount the importance of the human form the physical body because you're just you're missing the whole [ __ ] purpose your pure position of why you even have a [ __ ] body in the first place why are you going to focus on what's animating the body and not the body whenever you have a [ __ ] body what's the purpose of having one then and then also to take it to the level of going out of body and then having the astral travels and all the stuff that you knew quote-unquote out of body how long do you think that shit's gonna last whenever you don't have a body and yes you can spend as much quote-unquote time as you want out of body having your own experiences but the mentality that you have agreed upon when it comes to how the body ages and it all comes back down [ __ ] mentality of mind your mentality of time the mind of time do you mind your time you can spend quite a long time out of body and and then come back in your body and look in the mirror and you will see a [ __ ] corpse damn near this happens to people who are unexperienced and spend a long time in out-of-body experiences and once once the physical body you know we we stop giving awareness and attention to it then there goes you're out of so-called out-of-body experiences as well you have to have both so that you can have engage one or the other they're both necessary if you put too much of an aspect and focus on one you're negating the other and the other is dissolving unfortunately we've kind of most people haven't been taught and don't engage their subtle bodies and their therapy if you want to find an astral body so that lies dormant in most people because they don't engage it they don't engage their dreams they don't they don't continue their curiosity they don't continue the childlike mind city of exploring of figuring things out for yourself of just going into the experience just for the experience sake because that's that's where you truly learn that's truly where the wisdom lies is in that direct experience that's where you learn not from hearing about it from from another person experiencing it you have to get in there and do it yourself and it will teach you something uniquely specific to you that only you are going to it's going to be for you how you learn is is unique for each individual so I mean it's very important that yes we can all learn from each other but we have to get in there and do it ourselves because there's gonna be unique messages for each and every one of us and it's up to all of us to decipher that message and if you get too caught up in in the message and in deciphering what does it mean then you've already lost track you you've already fallen off the path of being in that's engagement and in that direct experience it's it's a flow you have to be in the flow to learn from the flow [Laughter] the spice must flow spice of life so yeah and sure like you can be out of body and not have a physical body but you have to have some kind of an anchor point and we'll get into this in later videos which just deserves its own whole other video to explain and go into more but it's not quite like it's more like magnetism and gravity your body holds your spirit here it keeps it in this place and whenever you are disembodied you you kind of float away until something sparks your heart and you come back and you were born again and you can do this while you're living people do this all the time with some Resurrection anis tosses recreating yourself the body does this all the time and that's one of the key a major thing here is it's not waking up it's getting clear wake up yes wake up to what's going on all the [ __ ] time that you have been unaware of but don't don't force that you know everyone has their own process and style sometimes it's very wild and it's just it's unique for everyone so I mean we can help each other and sometimes we do need to [ __ ] kick in the butt sometimes we need some genies to light a fire under our asses so that we remind ourselves but where the truth is of what's most important for for us for the individual in that moment what's most important where does the focus need to be what do you want it to be what is your choice what do you choose are you clear on your intent and your desire what do you desire what do you choose are we all ready aren't we already modifying our jeans every day with a thing we do just by thinking differently heaven haven't people told you haven't you think these things these scientists even the ancient gurus and Yogi's all over the world say you change their mind you change your DNA to change your DNA you restructuring your genetic code restructuring it to what what was the original code all of the codons all of the was it was it three strands DNA how many you need have you ever seen something same DNA exactly and this is like one of the major key things here and part of this process for a lot of us there are waking up coming to realizing what's going on within and so that we can see clearly without rewriting your own scripts realizing what you've been told have you experienced are you able to directly experience certain things have you do you know firsthand or are you just taking the word of someone that supposedly is supposed to know better than you even though they they don't know how to they don't know what true nutrition or health and wealth they don't know anything about the subtle realms of their own beings or how to access that yeah you're gonna take their word because they have the instruments and tools and they're learning they're educated well who really is the fool there then I mean we've all been you know led into this [ __ ] [ __ ] game and everyone we're letting to this indoctrination system and everyone is going along with it so I mean if you want to be the outcast and be seen as a crazy person potentially get put in a [ __ ] loony bin or two then you just go along with it your parents your peers your so-called friends everyone else is believing in the lie so if you choose not to that's going to be very lonely road to walk for a while but you have to if you want to see what's really going on you have to engage that singularity point it's where it is going to feel like you're absolutely alone until you go all the way into that you stop resisting the process can you go through it and you realize oh there's everything because everything is within that singularity you start to like my Center and change your mind there's no some genetics as much as just the coding and you change the coding and your perception you change your perception and you get you clear you you get it clear to you you atone and you tune your antenna you start to pick up on the frequency and you start to attract that frequency those vibrations the resonance bio acoustic resonance uou how many hundred billion zillion this and that you never seen it though but we do know at least there is underneath that that coating or whatever that all that [ __ ] is there's whatever consciousness is it creates that which is just whatever the [ __ ] we are consciousness awareness everything and you can't say wake up these people that everybody they might wake up you guys you gonna see what's going on we gonna wake you up though the Woolfolk okay joke yeah and I mean yes wouldn't it be nice if people started to become more aware of how [ __ ] really work so what's really going on but I mean it's just like with religion or any kind of indoctrination you can't shove [ __ ] down people's throat you can't force them to wake up and oftentimes because of our indoctrination whenever something is pushed towards as someone there they're gonna resist it even no matter if it's truth or what the [ __ ] ever no one wants to get [ __ ] pushed down their throat we had enough of that as kids right there's young goat guards that's for real you think does this make sense about the [ __ ] book yes okay and yes we can we can be awake and aware and dissolve preconceived notions of what certain words are of just the original essence of things of everything of ourselves coming to understand through inner standing all the little processes that are always going on starting to regain and reclaim control and and what that word even really means what all words and and thoughts for the original essence stems from origin points because you can seek control but in so doing you you lose it slips through your fingers because there is no [ __ ] control there is just a flow and you either flow with it or you resist so this control takes the form of and awareness an awareness of the process which isn't really a control of it georgous you're aware of the reasoning the purpose you're aware of the purpose of the process that's really what control is you just you see how [ __ ] works and then you're able to play with it a little bit and potentially become a master manipulator and orchestrate whatever you want whenever everyone else is dumb down you tricked enough people in the right positions you have them think that they're on top that they're the ones actually in control and then it's [ __ ] easy and that's pretty much been the name of the game for a while now but the the very tippy top just like on the dollar bill the capstone is separated from the rest of the pyramid that's that capstone is like like into like the puppet master that's not attached to the rest of the [ __ ] that they're manipulating even though there really are because you know there's really only one one of us here after all that's how the pyramid scheme works is you have layers and layers of degrees of manipulation and lies within lies you tricked the right people in the right places and the rest just go along with it if that makes sense hopefully it does because it's pretty [ __ ] obvious once you once you get woke [Laughter] yeah but so yes you can force yourself to not have the body not going to sleep you know like most people are used to engaging it falling asleep but just because you can do something doesn't mean necessarily that it's going to be beneficial but it's still an experience and you still learn from it so go for it a lot Shum saw and we got to learn the hard way in order to learn the right way but falling asleep whenever you're still aware you have the wakefulness still about you then you engage what you used to call sleep and a new level a new layer to where you're able to witness what's going on you're able to pull yourself out of the body a little bit allow the body to do to do what it needs it needs to rest that's why all these systems on earth the earth itself has her cycles and her times of fruition and abundance and her time of summer and then her time where she needs to rest and I'm not saying that if it's always like that and I'm not saying it always has to be like that but what I am saying is Nature has its you could say code coatings processes in itself to where she's going to make sure that life continues on even whenever the beings that this realm was created for have fallen asleep and forgot to pay attention then she's only needed to change it up a little bit with her cycles but as the collective awareness shifts and starts to become more awake more aware of what's going on within themselves then that's going to also reflect and this cycles if you want to call it seasons everything has its purpose and it's up to you to decide what the purpose is but also if you want to try to control it manipulate it or if you just want to flow with it see for what it is find the original essence the origin point then you can really start to play and move beyond the things that you thought we're barriers or limitations you can't force people to be conscious if we could it does Rita already done and we see at the fruits but the food society is a bunch of people keeping you dead asleep continuously that's just as bad as waking you up so you got to wake up versus come on little sleepy heads give it there's a healthy balance to be much difficult up here energize and take a [ __ ] nap take a night what lightning I usually don't snap right the cat's now give sea animals just like I'm gonna take it back to the dream world dog did something exactly there's there's there's a lot more going on okay then what what you've been led to believe what most people choose to engage in when most people are out here caught up in the rat race they are just allowing the the subtle realms to basically influence them that's the choice that they're making by Knotts whenever you choose ignorant the willful ignorance you are choosing to encapsulate yourself you're choosing to go along with the programs that you've been led to believe of right or wrong real or fake hallucination death or you can spend instead of money spend a little time it's been awareness recreate what you think time is it's our paying attention to what happens as you fall asleep as you allow the body to relax down keeping the mind aware keeping a dream journal starting to recollect recollect your dreams seeing what that does for you with them Orie seeing the things that you remember that you have access to whenever you start to engage your dreams your subtle realms or subtle bodies your astral body often times I have people come up to me and either tell me to wake up or whoa not in the sense that is n was talking in but in the sense of they think I'm either asleep basically because most people don't even really know what meditation is or what that looks like so they'll just think I'm asleep but [Music] definitely the opposite of that is going on so yeah we've been led into a world where not only are we boxed in these just just the very essence of being in an apartment or a box building it's gonna cut you off from just being able to open your eyes and see nature's the sea endless to see the skies and the stars and or the Sun and just this sea no boundaries just the very act of keeping people boxed in homes and houses and squares that in and of itself teaches people to box their own minds and continue along that path encourages them continue to cut themselves off from the truth which is that you cannot be cut off unless you trick yourself into thinking that you are so it's like it's like a false sense of being embodied like people are so caught up in either money or just gaining something or just being so caught up in their body you're not even necessarily super aware of that they are in their body but just so engrossed in their just the limited senses that they are used to engaging that they forget about their other senses and there are other modes of engagement and that's that's keeping people asleep but I mean by all means if you want to stay asleep stay asleep for them take a nap take a nap just it doesn't mean that you have to completely fall asleep even though you want to take a nap you can still be aware whenever you do that you can allow the body to do what it needs to do in rest recoup regroup and you can engage other realms so there's so aspects of beingness you can even pop out and go back in and take a look at what's going on within the subtleties inside of your physical body the only limitation is the limitation you choose to believe shut shut the program down hear me off now wake up wake up [ __ ] look at look at look at the growth process of the universe look at the sparkle son sometimes failure sometimes a day circadian rhythms all of this it's the same it's the same as consciousness it's the same as the possibility even if you were in full-on Samadhi in god mode even though you couldn't have awareness of everything you couldn't possibly instantaneously know all things where everything is that you can only see so far you want you have 360 degree vision and up and down and your smell everything all the smell that once are heightened doesn't what why would you want that it'd be too bright see it's too bright you can't see anything from here no you can't it's too bright so I have to come over here if I sit here I'm glowing they turn into that I turn into that I become infinite light but then what exactly and so I mean like I said at the beginning of this if you want to focus on we're not the body where you know what the consciousness were the light within the water fine but don't don't forget about the purpose of the body this reminds me I think I may have mentioned this in another video it may be a video that I have not put out yet but one of my one of my close friends was in her Glade don't know what a Glade is figure it out no but uh at her at her home at her residence and she came into contact with an essence a spherical being if you want to call it that and I've had similar experiences as well yeah so I mean this story sparked a lot of memories for me big time because of all of the spherical being mentioned as well as what happened to her which I have experienced that too and it's it's very much like if you take some kind of India gene or plant spirit medicine and you're kind of able to see in the dark so to speak the light within all atoms is illuminated all moing who molecules so everything is lit up and it's in its awesome new experience but but not always to experience it you don't always want to be in that in that place because otherwise you lose sight of balance you lose sight of the point of the pure position so the story is that this spherical being came to this magical feminine beam and lit her up they lit her up they let her glade up in all spectrums so it made everything like a super illuminated rainbow and and yes of course I looked like something out of like a fantasy or you know fairy tale right very magical and mystical utilizing the light and the mist accentuating the colors all the hues it's like turning the dial up so that everything becomes very bright and heightened but in so doing and instead of you know booing and eyeing this person simply asked she simply stated thank you for being you know who and what you are but please turn it back to the way it was and please don't ever do that again perfection is an inch within just the love and the light perfection includes all aspects harmonized you can't push one to the side you can't choose one over the other you have to see how they all fit together how they all work together and if they don't you have to find the harmony and oftentimes we just have to allow the harmony to present itself to us oftentimes people get in their own goddamn way too much you just have to take a step back allow about life the present itself to you the answers will come to you if you let them if you need an answer they can perform so you could have an experience which is akin to what shadow Brom the shadow the trifid the earth matrix the mother the earth based system I mean you can't always be physical sleeping in darkness and but you can't always be this that you can't see because it's too bright yep pretty much and then also you know like like I hope I like to prison and stuff is it's this and it's that it's not either/or it's yes but and there there is more don't don't cut yourself off from from potential from potentially remembering who you are who we all are because really we we're always in the body we're always not in the body we just we just forgot we forgot that we had a choice we forgot the choice that we made we forgot and so we keep repeating the same mistakes and I'm not gonna say what the mistakes are it's for each and every individual to figure it out for themselves to allow life to speak to them in its own unique way to decipher their own unique message that's for them and a specific manner to where they will understand a certain something our unique something okay I'll see if there's much left you get that Fulbright scholarship you know I know that's about it so yeah just spreading this I'm spreading the light in love I'm spreading this in love just giving commentary on this and just sharing it with people if you haven't already seen this or thought about these things maybe you can spend a little time inside your mind inside the mind and contemplate allow yourself time for contemplation non rushed contemplation a smooth flow back into the center back into the heart back into homeostasis and the Monad of the eye of the hurricane the epicenter the origin point allow yourself to just be there and exist there and just feel it yeah I may sound new agey and [ __ ] but I mean let's just start there start with a simple of engagement and allow life to happen allow things come to you allow the resonance to happen and slowly but surely you will start to become and remember what it was like to be a child that sensible wonder the sense of all being inspired constantly and I'm more talking about potentially being a child being out in nature or just engaging with other children engaging with I want to call it God the Creator the spirit that's that's where my most profound childhood memories are is just being out in nature and engaging with spirit engaging with the wind engaging with the things I didn't know were real at the time and especially if you know go to an adult adult who who will tell you you know is your imagination and get that kid on mention you need to get him on Ritalin here's ADHD get him on adderall got some sick [ __ ] [ __ ] and that's it's part of a man part of the system that were in to ignore the root cause oddities and just throw the easy way at them to throw the medicine what they call medicine which is just you know the pharmaceuticals get people addicted to that addictions with in addictions with in addictions in this addiction of [ __ ] scripts and conscripts and twisted linguistics one of the things that is mentioned whenever one really meditates and when I say meditate I mean you know distill the mind to allow and feel what is going on naturally without you having to do anything it is said that you relax the DNA if that's even really a thing potentially unwinding it even and accessing the cellular memory the genetic memory relax your body relax your mind allow the essence of what you are to speak to you allow a spirit to speak to clean out clear up and you'll hear it cleanse the lens retune and you'll start to feel all of our hearts and you start to hear the deeper meaning you'll start to answer your own questions before they even arise and that's when you know you woke peace | Firedrake009 | UCAoQgSnCDPqJdcP6GtOfLNA | 2019-07-07 | Creative Commons Attribution license

today the whole aim of this show is to capture life stories of vermonters and some people from outside vermont who have a story to tell behind this program is my reading over the years many obituaries that i would finish and say to myself gosh i wish i got to know that person what an amazing life story well we're going to celebrate life now while people are very much vibrant and alive and in their communities and my my belief is that everyone literally everyone has a story to tell so if you're interested by the way of being interviewed for this story please contact me at celebratelife0747 at gmail.com or if you have a question for our guest um again send me an email at celebratelife0747 at gmail.com and i'll make sure it gets over to our guest and you get a response today i'm honored to have as our guest roseanne greco and uh welcome roseanne hi good to have you here today it's great so um when i asked roseanne about you know five words that describe her she she mentioned environmentalist caring concerned committed and critical so i guess my first question to you roseanne is tell us about your life from from wherever you want to start to bring it up to today that that allows us to understand those five words about you um okay so i you started with the word environmentalist and i guess uh i i now think of myself as sort of an environmental activist and and that may go back to the you know uh my um growing up uh in on a rural area or in scranton pennsylvania um we lived well we were quite poor i didn't know it at the time i now know looking back we were pretty poor um but the poor in money but uh now i realized so incredibly rich because of where we lived and by that i mean we were surrounded by fields and woods um i love animals i've always loved animals uh we had dogs we had chickens we had sheep not a farm but these were just and horses and that's i i had a had a horse or two along the way um but i think that's where and i may have said this to you earlier gary that uh i have a i feel like i've got a soul connection to nature and it is from being growing up in that kind of environment our house was very small it was like a hundred year old house but not a really nice hundred year old house pretty crappy uh well whatever i mean very poorly insulated we didn't have a toilet that flushed um so i was outside a lot and uh anyway so that i think gets me to the the where i am now looking back which i hadn't ever really thought about till you just asked me that question but feeling that connection and then um growing up with with the uh with the love of nature and animals uh to becoming more aware of what we were doing to this part of our soul i mean we are part of it you know people talk about the environment is something outside ourselves to where i am now where my heart is literally breaking um with um with the understanding of the destruction we're causing uh by the way we live and the choices we make so um that's i guess where i am now from where i was environmental and um tell you a bit about the other ones because as you say this and i guess we'll probably get into this but um uh because i just thought about this as you sent me some questions in advance and i was sort of thinking about it i mentioned in those phrases those words committed and but that doesn't mean locked up although i bet you there's some people who would like to do that to me but it is more my upbringing i was born um and then two weeks later baptized catholic and came from a very strong catholic religious family uh taught by nuns all the way uh i even probably talked about this i even entered the convent and was a nun um for six and a half years until i was kicked out but anyway that that's another story but um but but one of the one of the things that the nuns taught us they use the word perseverance which i use the word commitment and that is you are dedicated to something and you stick with it i i know i have been a thorn in many a person organization uh entities side because i sort of never give up it's like um was that movie um butch casting a sundance kid where they were being followed by uh the law you know and they keep saying who are those guys well i am one of those guys you know i'm gonna stick with anyway so that's where the commitment part comes yeah gotcha and that's um that's expressed itself as an adult in i know your involvement in uh south burlington city council and um and we will talk later probably about the f-35 and things like that but yeah for sure yeah so tell us more about that early life of yours so very religious catholic out nature sounds like a very loving family um well if you want me to be honest absolutely i will tell you the truth uh because i think uh the truth helps um you know the whole set you're free but that i i consider myself free from that but it also uh telling my story gives permission for other people to tell their stories because that's right shame or stuff that sometimes associated with negative stuff you know gets buried and then it never gets solved you know so um yeah so i was born in scranton pennsylvania 1948 and um my mother uh my father at the time when i was born uh was a coal miner and my mother uh and i can't remember when i was born but you know as i was growing up she worked in mostly in factories um she was a you know she did they call it piece work um and and so we're i guess now we call it a very blue collar family very very religious uh i have one brother who is about 14 months younger than i am my mother um and father um had been married for 18 years before i was born uh my mother my mother is one of 11 children my father is one of 14 my mother's german catholic my father was italian catholic but came from very big families and my mother wanted more children than her mother so she was going for an even dozen uh well she only ended up with two and we believe now with science it was probably some incompatibility you know um but um she she she tells me she had some sort of um i think she said an infection or something and they gave her penicillin and right after she took the penicillin is when she conceived now that was 18 years of trying apparently they had a great time i mean my parents i uh were loving toward each other i never there was never any kind of conflict but my father died um when i had just i just turned nine years old so uh i don't have a lot of history with my dad except that i know i adored him i mean i still have those kinds of feelings but my father uh he was a coal miner as i said and the coal mines in scranton uh pennsylvania at the time were closing down uh because there were havens and mine fires and stuff and so he was out of work and so um he would go on uh trips he he worked then in heavy construction and i don't know exactly he may have been driving equipment or i i don't know the specifics of it but he had to go out of the country and i guess there were these projects here's another serendipitous kind of stuff i knew he had to go out of the country now at this point i'm like six or seven years old and he went to iceland and i knew and he was gone for like a year and then he came back and apparently he couldn't get a job in scranton it was very depressed at that time and then he next went to a place called ascension island and that was uh in the south atlantic right off the western coast of africa and it was on and he was there he was going to be there i think for 18 months and then he was going to come home but he um collapsed in the bathroom and i'm now 8 years old and he was rushed to the nearest hospital which which was in rio de janeiro because it was it was nothing on the continent of africa and uh huge climb across the atlantic now i i tell you this because i although i had just turned eight years old and he died i my birthday's the beginning of september he died the end of september um he had been gone already 18 months before that and so even though he died i lost my dad i hadn't seen him before i guess i was right you know you do the math six and a half or whatever right um well maybe seven but um math is not my strong suit i'm great at a lot of things but not that but anyway um but i remember my there were two of us my mother um and my brother joseph uh like i said a little you're younger than i am i was daddy's girl and i remember hearing that and he doted on me and he would i remember i was uh apparently a very very picky eater i have overcome that a lot um but they would have to try to feed me you know and he would come to school we went to catholic school and he would pick me up at lunch and drive me um in a car and help me eat my sandwich in the car or something like that so anyway um you know long all my stories are long stories um but i was so so close to my father and then he died and um uh i was i felt as if my parent was gone because my mother seemed to always favor my brother and the reason i remember this is that she would say that she would and i'm not fighting but she would say that he paid too much attention i was the firstborn remember after 18 years i was the gift from god which is not in the convict that's another story but anyway um uh and so i think my mother was trying to compensate for my brother who wasn't getting the attention that you know so when my dad died i interpreted it as i've lost my parent and and because i thought my mother and you know my mother and i were never close and i think part of this feeling that she liked him better she loved my mother better um and i was alone i had a friend for myself because my my my father my art was gone so um that sort of shaped a lot of i think what i turned out was like i felt like i was on my own yeah at a young age even as a young age i felt like i'm alone in this world missed my dad and he was a wonderful man and not just me saying this but everybody who's ever said anything about my father praised him and kept saying he's the most wonderful man he was so kind my mother i find i'm a lot like my mother who was very um out there uh you know um we would call it assertive you know a very um you know uh forceful woman she wasn't mean but she was opinionated and loud um and my father in fact now that i'm thinking of this my husband and i have a similar dynamic but my father according to what people he was he was fine with that let her be the one that's out there and just there and my husband my darling darling husband best man in the world um is the same way he supports it but he's happy to be there yes no limelight he doesn't like the limelight he um and he takes all of my oh god that man's a saint um you know because i'm i'm not easy to live with um but my dad was that way and but anyway it sort of shaped my independence and what i did the rest of my life so um so i idolized the nuns uh we were taught by an order they're still in existence such as a christian charity and their um their mother house in the uh united states in the what they call the eastern province it was in a place called menden new jersey uh we were in scranton but seeing the nuns they were like a lot a lot of children they were my role models uh yeah yeah they you know they were in full had it um they sort of were like ephemeral you know kind of thing i mean they we didn't have any idea if there was a body underneath that but you know everything was covered and they you know they walked like they were flo you know just and they always seemed happy and i wasn't i mean i recognize this now you know with the loss of my father and i turned in nature i had a horse and dogs and cats and all that and i would my mother remember i remember her telling me this one time i i would go out and i would cry and to be awake because i never wanted to show my emotions even as a little kid to my mother and she told me years and years later that she knew i was because i come back and my eyes were all red so the nuns were the ones that i sort of went to because my mother i didn't feel was there for me gotcha yes and so i want to be honest about what else what happened next um so i was sexually abused by a male friend of the family that came in um ostensibly to console my mother uh i don't want to get into all the details but yeah she was bereft too because she dealing with my father and to lose him like that and he moved in and then sexually abused me um yes yeah well i and i um well the the thing that uh the reason i'm saying this is because it happened and because i didn't mention it i didn't say one word about this uh i said two words about this my entire life until i i got to college and um the reason i didn't say anything initially was because i thought it was my fault and i was i think eight i guess i maybe nine at the time and i thought it was a sin well in the in the catholic church it was well as a child but even as an eight-year-old right of course i didn't tell you even into my young adulthood i still had the feeling somehow i caused it and the i'm telling you i mentioned it twice before i became um you know free of it by saying wait a minute you know i was a little girl um i i told my mother and i forget exactly how i remember i remember the feeling i remember sitting at the top of the steps we uh we had steps going up to the second floor sort of rocking knowing i had to tell her the reason i had to tell her was i was about to make um what they call the sacrament of confirmation which usually happens about 12 or 13. and i knew that if i if i received the sacrament it would not take because i had a mortal sin on my soul yes you only get the sacrament of confirmation once and that is the only reason because i felt like i had to go to confession um now i've been to confession because we went to confession every week you know and i would talk about yelling at my brother and being mean to my brother that was my standard sin you know but i was so afraid that the the date for confirmation was coming up and here i had this mortal sin on my my soul and that i would never be confirmed the sacrament wouldn't take effect so i said to my mother and i remember oh god i remember it walking finally walking down the steps and telling her and i don't know what i said to her but i said something and i'm not going to mention his name um he's probably long dead i can't remember the words i used you know about him coming into my bed or um and uh my mother said to me um she would talk to the priest and see about getting me to confession and apparently she did and i went to the priest and i god i don't even know what i said i i have no idea i didn't even have words you know and i confessed it um which then sort of reinforced in my head i had committed a sin i had to go to confession you know right but i actually thought the confession didn't take because i thought i didn't really say everything you know and i'm not talking graphic terms i'm just saying i felt so i i found a church i don't know how in the world i got to a church on my own and went into the confessional with a strange priest and i guess it's because the priest in saint john's the baptist where i you know we belonged knew me you know so i wanted to go to a stranger who didn't know me you know so that less embarrassment but once again he gave me a penance and i remember it was the biggest penance i ever got i think i had to say like 10 hail marys and 10 our fathers which was a big penalty you got a hail marrier too you know which thought and and he questioned me about you know something like was i going to do it again or something it was yeah anyway anyway so um that started me online yes um but that that just reinforced this notion that it must have been your fault oh yeah yeah and that nobody ever said my goodness uh roseanne uh this is a terrible girl yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah but um it's it's it's um you know my rational bra if i was telling somebody else or advising somebody else oh my god you know of course you were a little girl a child dad had just died i was completing affection i mean i was i was missing my daddy this man is now in our life and my mother liked him you know yeah you know so in my in my rational adult i'm talking to somebody else of course this is so clear right but as a little girl and i carry that with me for years wow and um and i'll let me sort of fast forward because i'll just end this part of the story yeah so it wasn't until i was in graduate school and i i got eventually got a masters in counseling and guidance and in one of the sessions we were doing uh you know we're learning how to be counselors and we were learning how to do group therapy so right and one of the techniques we were learning was to um put ourselves to think about something in our lives put ourselves that we maybe we were harmed or controversy or something and rather than be the person ourselves we were the person who was doing it to us we were so we were like role playing right gotcha and um why i volunteer but i have this habit of always raising my hand to volunteer stuff um i volunteered to do it and i don't know if i was the first person or not but i did and the person i was putting myself in my role was not the man it was my mother and i was i had to play two roles i was playing myself and then i lost chairs and then i was my mother and so the the therapist who was guiding this you know was saying well what do you want to say to your mother and what i said without even is why didn't you protect me of course that was and and then i realized after that that that's why my mother and i were never close because i felt like first of all i felt like she had to have known i had no idea because she and i never talked about it after that first time never never said a word about it all right and so i had felt that she must have known and why didn't she stop it or why why did she leave me alone with him you know right why didn't she let me go and let him come into bed at night with me right you know uh that was an adult woman i'm thinking whoa you know but our world's different now than it was then but i but i this is the part that is most was most telling for me and most freeing one when i did that i realized that's was the cause of my mother and i never we weren't antagonistic we were just never close we never talked about anything meaningful right right um but after that session there must have been five women in that class your young women you were all who came up to me and said it happened to me too and the class only had maybe 20 i'm thinking 20 or 30 students yeah and the fact that was like oh my god it's not just me you know i thought i was the one you know the at fault and it only happened to me and in a class that size to hear from there must have been four or five women who all came around and said and not the exact same situation as well yes so anyway that that closes that part out wow i i don't want to make light of it but but the point these things are still happening and um a huge percentage of women girls yep yeah absolutely yes and uh and we're embarrassed and ashamed to talk about it uh people are doing it more because thank you thank you for sharing though anyway thank you for sharing because i think when we started this you said that in telling the story it might help others be able to come to grips with a similar story and i think you're absolutely right um thank you for doing that but i want to add something onto that and that is i have turned out and i'm going to be the nuns would hate this but i have been very successful in my life i think i am a very well-balanced uh intelligent caring resourceful independent powerful um leader uh and i don't want the whole idea of victimhood that's what's concerning because sometimes right you think oh that kid was abused or that kid was neglected or that kid came about from a family with drugs or right and so they're doomed you know right right because they'll never make it i am um to toot my own horn when i'm this is jumping into my next part of my life but i joined the the military and i rose to the rank of colonel at a time when there were very few women in the military very few women and the the number of women who became colonel was so small we almost knew each other so to show you you can go from being a coal miner's daughter you know to being a colonel even though you have that kind of it life experiences which most people look at as oh my god that kid's never gonna make it you know exactly so it's what you do with those experiences that matters yeah um yeah yeah and you're not a victim is probably the last word i would ever attach to you a survivor and a doer well you know what it gave me um this is also interesting i've had other experiences in my life where i was some guy tried to rape me i got away uh in the military i dealt with this oh god people were guys were groping me and turned the lights off coming to my house and but i don't know if it was the young you know but i had done that before you know and i wasn't going to do it again that's one thing i i i realized so i was able to get out of all those situations unscathed um because i had built you know it's the kind of thing if you don't ever have bad things happen to you or face hard times you never develop the coping skills there's something you live in the life of roses when you when you face a hardship you're going to be unequipped to deal with it so yes it empowered me later on when i was when i met up against the similar stuff you know you know when in talking you there's a an old quote the grain of the sand that irritates the oyster creates the pearl yeah yeah and so some of those tough life experiences can be the thing that makes you special yeah in the end yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah so um so do you want me just keep rambling sure keep going yes absolutely okay let's get back to the nuns because they play part in my life right and uh i started by saying it not now you know why my childhood wasn't you know right a bit of roses um so the nuns showed me another life it was like they were pure remember i thought myself as as thin very hated a loose woman um whatever i was a but the nuns were they were so and they they looked like their life was simple and careful i was like carefree you know but they were always happy well not always i got slapped a bit around but that's what nuns did in those days but um i i didn't have a lot of mean nuns they were very caring and uh i happened to be a ver and i am very smart and so i was always academically at the top of the class well nuns love smart kids so i ended up being more often than not teachers pet kind of thing so i idolized them and so they that it doesn't happen anymore but in those days you could enter the convent right after eighth grade don't do it anymore you actually went into the mother house and the mother house was in like i said menden new jersey and we lived in scranton pennsylvania and you lived in the mother house over the entire school year came home for the two or three months in the summer time and then went back and we wore a uniform that looked more like a habit it was the ugliest thing oh my god if i find pictures of that i will not send this yes um but so i i decided i wanted to go in and be a nun which would have been right it's september after i graduated eighth grade yeah and uh my my course my father had died and this by the way this guy after i mentioned what had happened just left the house so my mother obviously must have i never i never saw it never saw him again um but uh so i uh my mother um she had back to the she was uh married 18 years before i was born she told me when i said i wanted to be a nun and i wanted to go into the convent she told me that she had made a promise to god um that if she ever got pregnant she would i would say offer up her child but if if her child wanted to enter religious life as a priest or a nun you could give her child back to god yeah gotcha so there you go so rather than say no you know you're 11 years old you're not going to go into that convent she remembered she promised god this and she's not going to welsh on on that agreement i guess so she allowed me to to go to convent and so i spent um four years um in the mountains still is in new jersey um and then um and i loved it loved it i um you know in the catholic tradition they talk about having a vocation which is a calling from god yes to do it and usually vocations although they've expanded them now but it usually meant for their religious life as a religious woman or and so i always believed i have a vocation a true this day i think i have a vocation not just to be a nun though yes right so so i was in there for my four years of high school and then after high school graduation went home for the last summer and then i entered the convent and it's when i was a candidate and that's when you get the black uh uh long dress and that's called the candidate another possible in a novice uh than a religious um professed nun but um so then i i entered and uh i was in there for another two and a half so it was about almost six and a half seven years second year novice i won't go into the the ranks of the of the nuns which i didn't do well in i did in the military um uh but um at the after this i was six months away from taking first vows so i had a full habit the only skin on us was this that's all you could see in our hand that was the only thing you see and we're all covered in black we should have good skin none should have good skin but anyway um so um i uh had gotten this is a time if you any catholics during the ecumenical council when uh pope john the 23rd who was using the phrase open the windows up let's let's let the air in let's be you know outgoing as opposed to you know we got the truth nobody else does and there was a little bit of a freedom to talk about things um and um the they called them mistress of novices they have seemed to change that term because they really just has another meaning now they call them directors of novices but our mistress of novices went to rome for something and we got a substitute for a few months and the the the sister who came in sister mary williams she has passed away she was a breath of fresh air literally because um uh i won't mention her name so our mistress of novices had been mistress of novices for something like 17 years and she had been in the walls of the mother house she was very rigid very strict loved public humiliation oh my god that was the thing public humiliation in the military we were told to praise in public and criticize in private in the confident it was just the opposite you criticized as a public and if you were good you might have heard it in the behind closed doors yeah but anyway so so uh the mr novices uh was very very stern and very very strict and when sister mayor william came in we were starting to talk she allowed us to talk to ask questions we're talking religious things you know so um one of the things that uh they used to warn us about the convent with something called particular friendship have you ever heard that phrase no okay most people haven't i i find it is is is something unique to the religious life and what it we had no idea what it meant we just knew from the day we were almost the day we walked in as freshmen in high school we were to avoid particular friendships they were the worst thing we thought that meant you shouldn't have a close friend uh we were always um forbidden from pairing off two of us and we thought it was because of christian charity love everyone you don't love one person more than you love another person um you are kinder and nicer to the people you dislike than you are to the people you like you avoid the people you like and you hang around with people you dislike well that's right that's mortification you know that credit in heaven makes for really you know not fun times but but i had a formed a friendship which i knew was sort of forbidden this is not sexual at all by the way i understand yeah but we only learned years later after we left the convent because i have organized reunions for those of us there were 21 of us in my group that what they meant by particular friendship was lesbianism we had no idea none of us knew anything about sex uh i mean you're just you know kids uh but they were concerned and i couldn't understand your environment with adolescent and teenage girls girls and they were so concerned about that they they drilled in this well so i met a friend and we were talking about theology stuff but i had you know said one of the virtues the nuns always told us was openness and honesty which has gotten me into so much trouble in my life i can't tell you but they said that's you have to be honest you have to be open that's a sign of true virtue so i told the mistress that i liked this other uh girl yeah and uh so they were forbidden to ever be together ever talk and then um this new mr mistress came in and i told her like she said well she said you're older now remember two and a half years had passed since we were you know trying to and she said you know you're oh you know true i think you can talk you know and um so um we did so we were you know when our palate off you know we're just talking about god and theology and ethics and that kind of stuff and then the other mistress came back and open and honest i wanted to share with her that you know well and so i got kicked out of the convent that's uh wow yes she uh uh i after sharing that with her being so open and honest um i don't know what she thought no clue and all of a sudden she calls me in and says uh she didn't think i had a vocation oh wow at this point now i'm getting a little bolder you know and i said i thought i did so uh i remember she said well we'll make a novena it's nine days of prayer you know sort of money back guarantee you know you do your nine days novena you know you'll you'll get whatever you ask for so she was gonna ask the holy spirit whether i had a vocation and i was gonna ask the holy spirit well our holy spirit's differed because she was the mistress her holy spirit said i didn't my holy spirit told me i did well not a lot of boom um i'm out of the out of the convent so anyway that was what was that like for you though that to have your total life going in one direction and all of a sudden yeah you know yeah that was probably i'm trying to think there were three as i look back others more but there were some really horrible things in my life the first was well my father dying and then the abuse and this was right up there because when when she she said she she she told me she didn't think i understood the vow of chastity but she was right because i had no clue what chastity was because i had no clue i mean i knew what sex was obviously but i didn't really i didn't lesbianism but anyway anyway um but when i came out uh i was i think it was the time in my life where i felt like i wanted to die you know like um suicide was uh something i thought about yeah um because at that point i was like 21 20 or 21. and i had not ever never been on a date never had gone to a secular high school never held a job i'm back in the same house with my mother um oh and to make this even worse i was told or directed by the mistress to write a letter to my mother to tell her i wanted to come home because i didn't want to be a nun that was a lie right i had to write that so that's the letter my mother got and years later and once again we never talked about it we never talked about what why are you wrong you know uh it was many many years later that and i don't even know how it came up where she said and i i don't know why i told her that it wasn't my decision to come home it was the the um the convent you know the nuns decision and she said something like it never made sense she said because i had just seen you like six we used to have visiting days and uh they were once maybe three or four times a year where your parents could come and visit you for a few hours yeah and she said something like well you just seen you and you were so happy and then all of a sudden we get this letter saying you want to come home right so she suspected that that was not the truth but uh so anyway so i i got kicked out of the convent and it was horrible and um i went to work in a fact well for a factory i'm pennsylvania you know and that's what everybody did no no my family had ever gone uh to college my my mother had stopped um school after eighth grade she never even went to high school and my father i think went to high school uh i'm not sure um so i was working in sort of a factory-like situation and um god i always have such long-winded stories uh but when i went to work in this place uh i walked in and i saw a well woman uh who had been in elementary school with me now there were only 17 in my class in elementary school so each other i think there were nine girls and eight boys or something anyway and i saw the judy there and i was like oh wow now i hadn't seen her in a long time but everybody knew where i was i mean everybody knew i went into the convent right right and so i'm in this like a steno pool kind of it was i don't know the detail but i mean it was like an office type situation big open office type situation yeah and um and i'm making friends with the women they're all women and uh and all of a sudden something changed i i would go into the ladies room and all the way in those days women go in ladies room and just sit and stuff and gab and you know i me i maybe smoke i don't know and uh i i'd hear them and we'll open the door hear them all talk i'd walk in and everything go stone silent everybody's talking and then i overheard somebody talking about a party they had had the previous weekend and it was a party that uh was hosted well called by judy the i've known judy since first grade and she had invited everybody in the office to her party except me and so i was sort of like ostracized and it was because i was in the convent of course and another woman came to me and told me when i caught wind of it and i i couldn't understand why i wasn't invited i mean i wasn't a rabble rouse or anything like that and she said well they think you're too holy uh to come hearty because you wouldn't fit in because they assumed that because i've been abundant they couldn't talk i don't know what they talked about but they assumed i would be either wet blanket or right right right so it was because of that that i decided i i can't stay here i i gotta do something so i went back to the the sisters the nuns who taught me and i asked advice because my mother couldn't help and they suggested i go back to college i had some college in in the convent and um and that's what i did and that's got me to newark state so thank you there you go i i didn't know how to apply to college they helped me all the colleges in pennsylvania had closed the admissions had already closed new jersey still had some um and so so they helped me with the you know filling the forms out and getting into into uh so that's got me to now it's called kane college but you know that's got me right to newark state and uh where i didn't meet you [Laughter] or you didn't meet me that's right yeah did you live in union what i did was yeah so i lived i lived in with three um uh i didn't live on campus because i couldn't afford it right so i i i would rent a bedroom front and they would have these in the housing office and i yeah so i found a um uh uh this is wonderful well two great experiences one horrible experience but i i rented a room from mrs parker and she was a uh um a jewish lady who kept kosher and here i am a catholic girl so i had to learn how to keep kosher um and oh my god um so i live with mrs parker and then uh after i graduated i i moved in to a uh a minister and his wife's house he's a retired protestant minister and he tried to rape me um i escaped um uh he wrote the clothes off me so i was out there in the winter without stuff but i got out of the situation once again i was blamed for it you know i ran to the next door neighbors um i don't want to give the details but i ran next door neighbors and they saw me and he'd rip my shirt off and uh and they helped i don't even know where i went i can't remember where i went that night uh and then um his wife came home and i don't know what story told probably i came on to him i have no idea but all of a sudden now i'm you know i don't know once i'm back into this but anyway um so it was shortly after that that i decided i was going nowhere i had a bachelor's in psychology i was still working as a secretary i also had a second job i was cleaning houses and babysitting i just said our third job and um i realized that i needed to get an advanced degree if i was ever going to not be a secretary or clean housing and so that's when the woman i was boarding with the time after i left the minister's house um i boarded with another jewish woman who i d who only passed away uh she was in her mid-90s about two years ago and i miss assessment oh my god i loved her she was like another mother to me and her children had you know her she was divorced her her children were out of the house and and so i i lived with her until i joined the air force and she's the one that told me about the military paying for you because i didn't oh no kidding for your advanced degree yeah if i hadn't been and i always i miss the suspect i invited her to my my promotion party i invited she couldn't come because but she came to my retirement when i retired but anyway so so that's how i i joined the air force uh because i wanted to get my master's degree my goal was to be a clinical psychologist i had taken psychology um majored in psychology in the in college mainly because i had no clue as to what to do and and psychology fascinated me i mean the more people was like yeah and so i thought wow i'd love to do this i'd love to be a and anyway so but i i realized early on you don't get a job with a a woman in those days this is in the late 60s early 70s as a uh a professional job with a bachelor's degree right because i i had my bachelor's i'd go on interviews you know they asked me can you type literally and so i yeah being a secretary and uh so anyway so this assessment said well the military pays for your advanced degree you know so um i thought okay i'll go in get my master's degree get out be a clinical psychologist yeah well that didn't work out but but it was better so so i i i did get my master's degree i have all my coursework for a phd in international relations and arms control uh but i never became a clinical psychologist wow yeah so that takes me tonight um air force years yeah yes and uh i see that we're our time is becoming limited so a couple of things one i'd like to hear a little bit about your air force career but also when you think of your life today are there words of wisdom are there things that you could share to the audience that kind of encapsulates what you've learned about this thing we call life yes um i i don't know where i heard this saying but i remember at every desk i had whenever in the military you move around every every three years change jobs but i had this phrase uh on my on my desk and it was if you're careful enough nothing bad or good will ever happen to you and i and i don't know how maybe it's a bit of genetics part of uh life experiences but i have taken risks my entire life um i'm the one that remember i always raise my hand you uh you know uh no uh i'm the one that speaks up i'm not shy um i oftentimes i mean you talk people talk about planning your life i never play plan my life i mean i it's sort of as if i just did things as they came and i took advantage but i wasn't thinking is taking advantage of the opportunity i just saw something that needed to be done or something that needed to be said and i rarely ever thought of the consequences of doing that but remember well remember i just told you you know that by being open and honest and saying things and risking things i had colossal failures yeah you know i got kicked out of the convent right right you're doing that right i can tell you more i mean i i got fired from jobs you know but there's an honesty with yourself through all that oh yeah i mean you're you're and and you paid a price for being yourself basically until yeah even well even in the military i'm i am pretty certain that if i had been uh less outspoken because i would i mean i risked a whole bunch of crap in the military you know by ta and mostly it was women's rights because we were like we were ignored dismissed whatever and i would say things and i remember one time i said something to a general well a lot of things but anyway um and he wouldn't um approve me for some very high level jobs i was being considered for you know working in nato and i mean really high level jobs i mean i became the assistant to the vice president united states al gore but because i uh i i probably had a reputation of being outspoken you know and and earlier i wasn't i was never rude or mean but i learned to temper and be more you know phrasing how i said things rather than just saying you know you know women are not heard here or you don't promote women you know whatever right right right um but so there was a the good and the bad side and that is when i said those things i rarely i hardly ever thought even when i got to be a city councilor in south burlington or the f-35 right i i didn't i i didn't think what could happen to me if i say this weapon system doesn't belong here or this right right right and so i was often surprised i shouldn't have been but i was at the you know the bad things that then came toward and they still do i mean you know i got death threats for goodness sake when i fought against the f35 that's never stopped me i never learned never learned well i'm i'm glad you never learned roseanne greco you know our time is up sir today but i i'd like to have you come back and do this uh some more down the road would you be interested in doing that oh there's more to tell there's more of your story i i'm oh yeah right yeah i got yeah long interesting life twists and turns but yes i'd love to yeah yeah because yeah i i um i don't know everybody has like you said everybody has a story everybody has this i don't know what's there until somebody asks you you know that's right have you is there any awards you've won over the years oh god yes oh my god yes oh my god give me one full of medals yeah yeah yeah okay we're gonna i'm gonna have you back okay all right thank you so much for today thank you for your life

what's popping let's get it [Music] now five scary videos of ghosts and creepy mysteries you decide this next video comes from a very odd source it was originally part of a commercial ad campaign for the travel website expedia but a very observant reddit user named ino lol immediately spotted something very disturbing in the video take a look [Music] now you probably didn't notice anything and neither did i at first glance but watch again keeping a close eye on the lady in black well did you see it no well take one last look with a close-up on the lady in black and her reflection on the wall in the reflection she seems to take a look toward the man in the video but her actual body seems to remain completely still now this could be an optical illusion are possibly an editing mistake but the fact that everything else around her seems to move normally makes it especially creepy what reddit user baked potato posted a bizarre video to the argos subreddit he says that years ago his friend kim toured the haunted limp mansion in st louis missouri kim recorded a video on her phone that caught something chilling [Music] what the [ __ ] was that or did i miss it now here i'll quote someone quoting me from this very videos reddit comments did you see it a shadow figure and a hat seems to appear right in front of a brightly lit window but when she pans back nothing there what makes this video even more compelling is that it was filmed on a very old phone and reddit user baked potato says that the video can't even be removed from the original cell phone wow so it would be very hard to fake but is it a ghost caught on camera or an optical illusion or to quote another reddit poster on this thread is this real or is it all just an elaborate hoax you decide [Music] separation anxiety paranormal explorer and youtuber ricky velasquez and fellow ghost hunter 90 travel to a remote location to do a live ghost hunt on youtube at night the building they investigate appears to be a long abandoned log cabin with missing floors and crumbling ceilings about 18 minutes into their live exploration they begin to hear something haven't i seen this one oh there's a difference whoa whoa whoa hold the [ __ ] up hold the [ __ ] up ricky and 90 can hear a low humming sound that almost sounds like the voice of a woman but it's not over yet seriously creeped out but positive that they are not alone ricky sets up his connect camera he asked the ghostly presence to show itself thomas foreign [Music] no thank you go look and see [Music] they watch as what appear to be the terrifying figures of a woman and child holding hands emerge from the pitch black to stare at them the figures simply stand in the doorway and watch before silently disappearing back into the darkness when ricky and fellow ghost hunter 90 reach the area and look around with their flashlights they don't find anything that could explain what they and their live audience just witnessed determined to find an explanation ricky continues using the connect camera all for you now you trip manifesto [Music] oh what nothing there you gotta be [ __ ] [Music] now if you're wondering in this clip why ricky runs to the opposite side of where the figures seem to disappear that's because ricky's connect camera is mirrored from what you see in real life so on the connect when it looks like the figures are moving towards the right side of the screen they are actually moving to the left so what do you think real or fake you decide you can watch more of this creepy investigation over on ricky velasquez youtube channel caught on camera talented photographer martin avejas is not a ghost hunter or urban explorer he sometimes takes artistic photos of models in abandoned locations and

mFcBy7tIqDg | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFcBy7tIqDg | How to lighten and fix dark footage - After Effects - 90 Seconds | hello everyone welcome back to another adult B After Effects tutorial guys this one I'm gonna show you how to relight or brighten dark footage in After Effects in like 90 seconds guys you could if anybody that took up some shots and you're out filming and it was too dark out at night and you can't use the footage don't get rid of it try this work with me okay so the first step here is I've got some footage and it's just a video of a cabin at night this is just stock footage I'm gonna drag and drop it down into the timeline there you go you see what we got it's not bad but it's kind of dark right and again I just want to show you the technique so I hit spacebar and here you go you see what we got right we just got some dark footage of a cabin not bad but let's say we want to brighten it up now this could be any kind of footage if you guys did like pitch-black stuff there's still a good chance we'll be able to get some of those details out anyways the next step and this is the critical step is you see that little cube here it's the 3d layer cube make sure that this is clicked on it's very very important because now we're gonna create a light we're gonna go to layer we're gonna go to new and then we're gonna go to light and by default it's set to parallel and this is not what you want and it at default it's set to 100% parallel these are not the the settings that we want we want I want you to go to ambient and then for purpose of demonstration I'm gonna jump the intensity way up to like 250 percent let's say and now watch what happens boom the entire scene is real it it is bright it is like sparkling bright a lit spacebar and you know what because we're using a light we turn the light off we started off with this kind of grayish darkish color and we've got a completely real it guys we did that in 90 seconds in after-effects this is really really good if you have like a couple pieces of footage that you need to just you know make it brighter but you don't want to apply it to the whole thing in Premiere Pro I also do have a video that shows you how to do this in Premiere Pro but that's it guys I hope you enjoyed this tutorial I got a ton more stuff coming up stay tuned thanks for watching | Curtis Pyke | UC51g2r_bWOQq-7Y-VwU9sYA | 2020-01-09 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 454 | 2,222 |
zyjg-hjAnJA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyjg-hjAnJA | Mixed Media Magnet turns your fridge into an art gallery | Altered Magnets with Mixed Media | I am so happy to be back in my shop and creating once again this is a magnet redo that we will be performing or I will be sharing in this particular video if you want to know where I've been for the past six weeks hit that subscribe and notification Bell and you'll be notified when I upload my new Vlog format where I am going to start communicating with you face to face my name is Peggy let me briefly introduce my channel [Music] when I was watching my grandchildren they live on a military base and we were the recipient of all of these magnets that have the ways to parent a military child and they just threw them in these bags we were at a little trade show event they threw them in my granddaughter's bags I think we wound up with about a dozen of them so we put one on their refrigerator and I brought the rest of them home I'm coating them with the three coats of gesso to make it more receptive to what I'm about to do now that I have that coated and dried I'm in a stick this piece of painters tape down the one side and cover the right half of this magnet I don't want to do anything with that right now now I have a raw Umber and just a liquitec Basics basic acrylic ink acrylic paint I'm sorry then I'm going to utilize to coat the left side of this now I am putting it on drying in between coats and it is taking about two well three coats to get it complete coverage so we'll put that last coat on allow that to dry and then we'll pull that painters tape a little bit later so now that that is dry I'm reapplying some painters tape to keep that covered I'm going to work on the far right side of this magnet I've decided that I would like to use texture paste to here I make my own texture paste it's just a mixture of baby powder glue and white acrylic paint I have a recipe for that but I'm at a point where I kind of eye it and this particular mixture is has done really well I didn't get it so dry that it dried out fast and I didn't get it so wet that it was not workable if you will so I put that down taken just a comb that I purchased cheaply in a pack of I don't know 10 plastic combs for a buck at the dollar store and I combed through that texture paste to give it these nice little ridges on the right side so I have the texture that I want I allowed that to dry there's drying time on this project of course and the texture paste I find is better if you allow it to dry naturally than try to speed that up with a blow dryer or a heat gun so now that I have everything dry I'm going to pull up that tape and just mend any little little uh glitches I have and now I want to add just a little bit more to that raw Umber so I'm going to tape off the other side of the magnet too I'm sorry not to the raw umber to the texture paste I'm going to tape off the other side of the magnet and cover cover that raw umber with this piece of paper just to protect it while I work on this texture paste side for this I've chosen to use distress oxide inks I'm utilizing vintage photo and ground espresso so first I'll spray the Vintage photo let that drip get it on there let it dry and it will allow it to dry pretty much before I put on the ground espresso I do want some blending there but I don't want a lot so now that that is in place let's go back with the ground espresso so there's not a tremendous amount of difference but there is a definitive blending or a definitive difference between the two colors I'm going to go back with a little more vintage photo and allow that to dry so now that we have that side dry I'm going to remove the paper and remove this Center piece of painters tape and see where we are so we had that clear white line which of course I don't want to leave that white I don't want to leave that just gesso so I shall cover up and make sure that we have nice straight lines cover up some of where that that distress oxide bled underneath the tape and I'm going to use a gold to paint this and this is just a craft paint a craft gold the name of it is pure gold paint that in to that stripe area and this is going to take several coats as well so I'm going to allow that to dry between coats stick another coat on and drying it with my hair dryer trying not to put any heat to this magnet because I do not want or a lot of heat I'm drying it with the cool setting on the hair dryer because I don't want this magnet to warp with the heat so now let's see how we did that side looks pretty good there is a little white space down there that I thought I could correct with my gold paint marker but alas it did not work so I shall try my best to straight line this down down that edge and there we go I want the wash of gold or the dry brush of gold over the top of that black umber so I put some on I felt like it might be a little too much um I was a little tardy and reacting to that so I'm spraying it with some water to try to reactivate it and I just grabbed a piece of newspaper print to see if I could pick up some of that paint and I'm just going to go ahead and put more on hit that water and pick up what I can and I'm okay with this I think this I think this is going to look fine it's you know kind of a mistake that we're going to turn into part of the design how's that sound so I just am going over that gold once more to make sure that's good and clear and there I think we're getting a pretty pretty decent little start so there's nothing um nothing more gratifying than have having something come together after you've made a mistake and now I shall take my fan brush and just splatter some gold across that textured area or the texture paste area as well and this is going to be a background for that feather that you saw in the original in the original um picture so let's finish up the background and then we'll plop that feather out and I'll show you how I adhered that I have this stamp that I pulled apart this was a wood stamp and I pulled the rubber off of the stamp so I had more control over where I wanted that to stamp and it is just a script and I'm putting that just down that gold section and here are the feathers that I purchased they're all kind of strung together on this tape so I kept the tape in place because I thought that would be perfect for gluing that feather onto this magnet so let me just glue it down with a little bit of glitter glue we'll get it into position and now we have to hide the tape so there's nothing better than to hide that tape than some sealing wax so I'm pulling out my ceiling wax and my heat my seal and we will melt that wax right onto the top of that tape being very cautious not to get that flame close to that feather and I always keep a container of water on my table so when I'm using fire like this I can stick this down inside that water and extinguish it so I don't have all that smoke and there's my seal right in the middle of that and that completes the magnet I'll just clean the edge I'm going to go around the whole outside edge of this I'm going to Ink it with black to kind of frame everything in and there you have it so here is that finished magnet you have a close-up view of that Wax Seal with the feather a full picture once again and I painted my file cabinets that Barn read and here it is on that file cabinet so thank you for being here I'm so happy to be back I hope you're happy to have me back and once again I have lots planned coming up I'm going to be redoing all of these magnets I have some paper clip videos that I have ready to upload of course I'm going to start the Vlog I'm starting some journals there's just going to be a lot going on now that I'm in my new space and happy to be here so I shall say bye for now | Two Old Crows Mixed Media | UCUundTbeTCXEPVJtkrzWAQQ | 2023-06-18 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata

rKfBygUIj_8 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKfBygUIj_8 | Memorable Quotes – Thane Rigwald (Path of Exile) | “You can take a wolf from the forest. You can collar him, chain him. You can starve him, beat him until he whimpers and bows down. Yet, is that wolf a dog? Never. A man is only a slave when he allows his heart and mind to be conquered. When he comes to believe that his life is no longer his own. When he chooses to cast his eyes forever to the ground. Like a king that chooses to press his lips to the feet of an emperor. A king that looks to his goblet and his plate, feasting and fattening while his people starve in their own streets. “Some might say that I should bear the guilt of regicide. That I killed the King of the Ezomytes. Yes, I served King Skothe his last meal, for I saw no king at that table. I saw a dog. “I once believed that a boy's eyes were born pure, clear of cruelty and malice. That it is life that teaches one to hate, to strike out at others through anger and fear. Yet when I looked into the eyes of Gaius Sentari, I found no anger. I found no hatred. I read no tales of injustice inflicted upon youthful innocence. Saw no walls built by suffering and sorrow. Instead, I was regarded as a merchant might regard beasts of burden at a market. “By Governor Sentari, my countrymen and I were counted, weighed, and allocated. This man to the mines. This woman to the mills. This child to the streets of Sarn to be worked and flogged until the day his blood would drain into the sewers of that wretched city. And those that resisted, those that asked to be treated as anything other than animals, were skinned and butchered, with an even dozen of their kin. “Fear not the man who lusts. Fear not the man who hates. Fear the man who feels nothing at all. “The colours and banners of a hundred clans, scattered like the wildflowers of spring across the meadows of Glargarryn. Thousands of men and women, starving, poor, armed with rusted hatchets and hunting bows, looking across that field, with the courage of desperation, at the imperial legion arrayed against them. Soldiers gleaming in bronze and steel. Trained and hardened men. Their polished shields forming a wall of discipline and determination against the advances of my motley rabble. "I sing, I rant, I rave," I said to them, "but today, clansmen, my sword is my voice!" “We crashed against that legion like waves upon a cliff. Time and time again they repelled us. The green meadows became brown and red with the mud of toil and the blood of war. Yet what is a slave to do? Suffer the lingering death of mine and mill, or offer the gift of your life to your people in one bright and glorious moment? For the men and women who followed me into battle, the choice was a simple one. Three Ezomytes fell for every Eternal and still the courage of my people tore down that polished wall, severed the strong arm of the Empire with a rusted, woodman's hatchet. Gaius Sentari ran for his wretched life. “I called to the Greatwolf to aid me, to give me the scent of that fleeing fox. Though the hunt was swift, I took the time to ensure that Gaius felt some small measure of the suffering he had inflicted before I answered his plea for mercy. “I stood with the Army of Purity and looked upon the mighty walls of Sarn. I fought against Chitus and his Gemling aberrations. I watched the strongest of our army, Ezomyte, Maraketh, Karui and Templar, struck down by creatures born of thaumaturgy. It will take more than strong men and women to defeat Chitus, for this is no longer a war of mud and blood. We face monsters, and to defeat them, we need some monsters of our own. “Here I stand, amongst these stones. Here I lay my gifts of blood and song, of flesh and fire. Here I call out to the First Ones, beasts of legend, terrors of our dreams. Here I howl to the Greatwolf himself. Should he answer, I am ready to pay the price that I know he will ask. It is no more than a man should do for his family. It is no more than a king should do for his people. “The Greatwolf has come for me. His heart beats within my chest. His tongue lolls within my mouth. His fangs crown my jaw. His eyes rest within my sockets. I do not see Ezomyte and Eternal, king and commoner, master and slave. I see only prey. In the world of street and field, the emperor has fallen. Those who were slaves are now free. In the world of forest and mountain, the First Ones hunt and feed as they have done since the first dawn. “No longer will I walk among my people. I will not have their blood on my lips. I will not be their king. I am the King of Wolves now. “The Greatwolf has forced me to forget who I was... and has taught me to be so much more. A man becomes a king so that he may protect the people of the day. A man becomes a god so that he may protect the people of all the days to come. And so the endless hunt begins. “The fervour of the First Ones remains, bound by the druids into fetishes of tooth and bone, skin and claw. I know where these potent talismans have been strewn. I have their scent. And so the endless hunt begins. I shall pursue the thieves of our ancient heritage. I shall wrest our First Ones from the clutching and the corrupted lest they feed and grow fecund on power not their own. Power I must have, must wield, in the name of all that is Ezomyr to come. “And so the endless hunt begins.” ~ Rigwald, the Wolven King | Daily Insight | UCvuALSR4Upfko4j5qx1nhdw | 2017-10-26 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 1,016 | 5,300 |

JaZDkaPNIrQ | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaZDkaPNIrQ | Concept Clearance: Investigator-initiated Clinical Sequencing Research (iCSR) - Lucia Hindorff | Lucia Hindorff: Okay. So on to iCSR which stands for Investigator-Initiated Clinical Sequencing Research which we’re proposing as a program announcement with set-aside. Though the motivation for iCSR is to follow up preliminary and intriguing CSER findings and settings that have a conceptual link to CSER, too, that are best done independently. This -- as council will recognize -- is a timely and straight-forward way to stimulate investigator-initiated research in genomic medicine. And bring into the NHGRI tent, maybe some different researchers that we haven’t seen yet in the consortia research. iCSR research would focus on investigator-initiated questions and approaches, by definition. However, we might expect that the research would fall under one of three broad aims. First, to understand whether and how clinical sequencing impacts disease diagnosis or treatment. Second, to integrate and analyze multiple data types to improve use of genomic information in clinical care. And then, third, to investigate function variants from CSER or CSER II. So this conceptual link to CSER really results in examples of research topics that could be proposed. And I will mention that these are just examples, I think we want to let investigators come forward with their best ideas, as well. But just to walk you through some potential examples. Under studies that help us better understand the impact of clinical sequencing, under this diagnosis and treatment. Studies could be those that investigate diseases with a high diagnostic yield. So as you saw in Dan’s presentation, CSER investigators report a wide range of diagnostic yields and I’m studying those that are associated with a high diagnostic yield might help us understand better why and how clinical sequencing has been more successful in those diseases. Or another example might be examining factors influencing the phenotypic spectrum. For example, so the findings may have been initially overlooked in the initial clinical sequencing study. For the second broad aim, integrating and analyzing multiple data types, those could include computational and health economic approaches; to identify diseases that are likely to benefit from clinical sequencing or integrating other data types such as family history, environmental, or other Omix data to improve clinical validity. Under investigation of function of CSER II variants, studies might include annotation of existing functional data to improve interpretations in the clinical workflow or elucidating function of variants identified in CSER or CSER II. We spent a little bit of time talking about the distinctions between investigator initiated and CSER II, so I’d like to talk a little about that. So compared to CSER II, we envision that iCSR would involve smaller, responsive and more flexible research settings. In studying targeted projects relevant to clinical sequencing, we would expect investigators to be able to describe their relevance beyond the specific genes or diseases proposed. Such research would not require substantial infrastructure in the consortium-wide approaches that would be needed for CSER II. In fact, we would expect the iCSR to operate largely independently of the CSER II investigators and their institutions. We are proposing that iCSR grantees meet once a year amongst themselves. The attendance at the CSER II meetings would not be required, but they would be invited to come. And compared to CSER II, the iCSR would not focus as much on Elfi [spelled phonetically] as those topics are supported by and existing and separate program announcement. So the iCSR is proposed as a program announcement with set-aside using the R01 mechanism. We envision a one-time PIs times with a CSER II concepts. Each award would be encouraged to come in with up to a 300K direct cost limit; this is the size of an average R01 for up to a four-year project period. Up to six awards are proposed for finding with review done by the Center for Scientific Review. We’re also talking with SBIR staff at NHGRI to see if we might be able to coordinate with their program announcement with the review or PAR. This is the small business grant mechanism for which we have already and existing set-aside, and we could also leverage the same panel as the existing R01. So this was a shorter presentation because we wanted to give you sort of the broad strokes of what we envisioned as aims. The investigator-initiated ideas would obviously come forward as investigator proposed ones. But we did want to point out that, in discussing how best to implement -- the stimulating our investigator-initiated portfolio, we had an active discussion among staff and there were a number of alternative options we could have pursued. So we would appreciate your feedback on things like the scope of the suggested topic area, the relationship to CSER and CSER II. We’ve proposed this as a PS that specific CSER II, but I know a couple of your have already, you know, raised the possibility of having a broader genomic medicine, funding opportunities, you know, comments on logistical aspects such as single versus multiple receipt dates or the size and the length of the grants would be welcome. Carol raised the idea of having planning grants for investigators to have kind of a smaller, limited time to plan for potentially larger efforts afterwards. So I think that might fit well here with iCSR. And then, as I mentioned, the small business mechanisms is one area that does not actually require a formal council vote, but which we felt was very easy to coordinate with our existing efforts. So we have the same four discussants. Lucilla, Shenida, Dan, and Bob. So why don’t we start with Lucilla? Female Speaker: I guess I advanced my comments. I think from the questions that you raised here, it seems to me that the size is a little bit on the small side. It could be bigger, even if it’s at the expense of funding one less on the CSER II. Male Speaker: You’re talking about the 300,000 cap? Female Speaker: Yeah, 300,000 seems small because depending, you know, on what you are going to do, this might get more expensive. And, again, reiterating what I said before, I think it should be the broader genomic medicine instead of a link to CSER II, necessarily. Lucia Hindorff: Thank you. Female Speaker: I think it’s important to include the option for it to be a planning grant, because I think that there are institutions that have nascent programs that use this mechanism to develop the plan for a larger application. I think that’s really important. But we’re all enthusiastic about the approach. Lucia Hindorff: Okay. Thank you. Dan. Male Speaker: Well, I think I already said what I said what I thought before, so I won’t repeat it. To say that I -- well, maybe I will -- to say that there are -- we’re at the point now in this field where there are lots and lots and lots of good ideas. And I don’t have a strong feeling about whether this should be iCSR or a much broader program announcement. If it’s iCSR -- Female Speaker: [unintelligible] Male Speaker: -- if it’s iCSR then, the advice to staff would be to keep a very, very close eye on the kinds of applications that you get. And if it turns out you get lots and lots and lots of wonderful applications, then that would accelerate the pathway towards a much broader program. And it’s possible. Lucia Hindorff: Great. And Bob. Male Speaker: The only thing -- I’d like to just affirm that having an ability for people who are not necessarily in the field to bring in their ideas. But with those ideas, somehow fused with or at least interacting with that of the current CSER so that we get new ideas without them being completely unlinked from the overall program objectives. But I would love to see new ideas of people that we haven’t -- we don’t know about or people haven’t thought about, because as my neighbor said so clearly, “The best ideas are not necessarily going to be coming from the people sitting around this table.” Lucia Hindorff: Thank you. Other council members? Carol? Female Speaker: Yes, so I concur that -- I would go with fewer awards and more funds per award. I think that’s a really important suggestion that just came in. And I also like having the P.A. be broader genomic medicine, but making sure that these investigators are included in CSER. So I don’t know if that changes what you call it. Or just make it clear in the iCSR announcement, this is really to be broad. But I really do think it’s important to have investigators funded under this -- be integrated somehow into these other initiatives. I think that’s key. Lucia Hindorff: Yeah, so I don’t -- I do want to comment that I don’t think that one precludes the other. This was our way of, you know, kind of envisioning getting some investigator-initiated research fund. And quickly we could imagine a companion one, you know, later on. I mentioned that. So it wouldn’t be necessary initially, but I think that’s good feedback. Female Speaker: And planning grants don’t need to be as much, right? So if planning grants -- Lucia Hindorff: Right, right. Female Speaker: -- actually gets folded into this -- Lucia Hindorff: Right. Female Speaker: -- you would want a different cap, I think, for planning grants versus R01-style grants. Male Speaker: [unintelligible] Male Speaker: Yeah, just real briefly. I just wanted to make sure, if this goes through and the program announcement goes out for the iCSR, I would just take great pains to try to specify that these are examples. Female Speaker: Yeah. Male Speaker: Because I think that if we do -- which I’m very much in favor of -- if we want to harness the brilliance of the community, because, like, Bob says, “We don’t know enough.” We have to make sure they don’t feel constrained to submit something that they think needs to be pounded into the specific data [unintelligible]. Male Speaker: So unless Val [spelled phonetically] think I’m arguing a different point, I’m completely supportive of the investigator-initiated approach, and so it’s not a question of whether to do something along those lines, it whether the expectations are aligned here. And it just seems to me, as I read the objectives here is to Dan’s point, these could be CSER or any clinical genomics program. They don’t really seem to align to CSER. That may be fine, but that is how it reads. And people could easily go off and develop methods that don’t capture the richness of the patient-centered approach at CSER. And it just seems to me that that’s -- whether it’s eMERGE, CSER, or something else. I think you were going the same place. And, again, it may be fine. That’s point one. And point two, while I’ve got the podium, function slipped into this. And we haven’t talked about function in the context of CSER. And so I’m wondering where that’s going? Lucia Hindorff: I think it comes from a number of discussions we’ve had. Not just as part of CSER, but it’s evident that from CSER, there have been a number of, you know, pathogenic or variants of uncertain significance that could be followed up for functions. Perhaps as they relate to therapies or other diagnostic implication for patients. Is that what you mean? Male Speaker: So I completely agree with that, but we’re strength in CSER, right? We’re broadening out. Female Speaker: Where’s the tie in to CSER? Male Speaker: [unintelligible] investigator initiated awards in general for clinical genomics which is fine, but it’s not CSER. Lucia Hindorff: That’s true. I think the tie in to CSER was identifying function of variants identified as CSER. So I -- it does include them much broader that CSER. Male Speaker: Isn’t the solution to this -- sorry. Isn’t one way of thinking about this is to make sure that the language in the RFA clearly ties this particular part of the genomic medicine portfolio to CSER and its own row of goals to the CSER program. And that’s not to preclude other investigator-initiated grants under other mechanisms. And I’m not sure where those other mechanisms are and how well funded they are in balance [unintelligible] this. So I think that, yeah, you do run a risk if you’re starting to propose, you know, wide-scale mutagenesis and zebrafish to try to decide whether, you know, variants that you’ve identified are functional. That’s probably not part of this program. Yeah, I think it’s a very important initiative, but it’s not -- probably not part of this program. So I think the answer is just to right the RFA in a way that would sort of allow you to say, “Well, this particular activity is CSER, and its offshoots. And in order to qualify, you have to meet these kind of criteria.” And, I hate to say this, but staff should decide whether something is responsive or not, or study sections should decide if something is responsive or not. But there is this element of responsiveness. If somebody comes out of left field and is clearly unrelated, I guess you could use that as an out. But it depends on the language. Female Speaker: Yes, so I think you are hearing different recommendations, because mine was to actually make it less CSER and you -- are to make it more CSER. Male Speaker: Well, I think whatever it is has to be explicit. I think that’s my recommendation. And if we decided we wanted to have a broad program in genomic medicine, you know, RFAs. That’s not the discussion we’re having, but if that were the way we would do it, then the RFAs should say, “This is a broad program, we’ll entertain zebrafish mutagenesis and individual patients,” and what have you. And then you can write it the way you want to. Female Speaker: Well I think it’s still clinical sequence, so it will be more human-based anyways. But I think just making it too specific to CSER, kind of limits and you might not even get a good application. I mean the other way, you can have both. Male Speaker: Only one way to find out. Female Speaker: Maybe I could just comment. The discussion that you’re having is a discussion that was mirrored within the staff. And we went around a lot about, should this be a general program for investigator-initiated research in genomic medicine? Or should it be more specific? This is the first one of its kind that we have done. And we really need to get some experience with it, I think, before we go much more broad. So this was an opportunity to really try to say, “Gee, there are some, you know, clearer things that have been identified here that could be followed up or pursued or expanded or broadened in investigator-initiated research.” That’s where the function came from, and we hear you that that’s not as much clinical sequencing. And so we have lots of programs that are exploring functionally, we can take that out. But I think it would be very helpful to us to sort of dip our toe in this water, first. And see what we get for something that is a little more related to one of our specific programs. And then see how that comes out. If we get nothing, you know, that will be an answer for us, as well. And we can go broader then on the next one; we wouldn’t have an i-eMERGE and an i-IGNITE and, you know, i-separate ones. But I think we do need to try one that’s a little bit on the small side just to see what we get. So that sort of where we come in. Male Speaker: So I’m just thinking off the top of my head, here. This hadn’t occurred to me until this discussion. I think it is too narrow to have one of the aims the investigation of function of [unintelligible] pathogenic genomic variants, identifying those. But I do think that given the magnitude of the problem of how to determine variants and whether they’re deleterious or whether they’re pathogenic. One could just broaden that to say, “Investigation of the pathogenicity of the U.S.” Something along those lines, because that is a central challenge, if not the central challenge in genomic medicine. And it would be -- you know, people might come up with approaches that look at these variants that don’t just rely on function. I mean you wouldn’t want to link them to that. Male Speaker: Could I get comments about eligibility requirements? Should this be wide open? Anyone apply? Restricting it in any way, should be have CSER-funded investigator supply to this as well? Male Speaker: [unintelligible] Male Speaker: I understand that, I wanted council to comment on it because we hadn’t heard anything about that. Could I hear something? Male Speaker: The whole in ten [spelled phonetically]. Male Speaker: Only people from the University of North Carolina can apply. [laughter] Male Speaker: I think everybody from -- Female Speaker: Everybody. Male Speaker: -- all 49 states except North Carolina should be allowed to apply. Male Speaker: This is open discussion. Male Speaker: Well, you know, he started it. [laughter] Male Speaker: I may have started it. Male Speaker: No I think the whole intent is to broaden the base. Male Speaker: It’s very broad. [unintelligible] Male Speaker: I’m not hearing the answer to your question. Male Speaker: [unintelligible] Female Speaker: So can we ask council, because programmatic balance is something that we always do consider, are you comfortable with, if we had, you know, 12 applications from some unnamed university in North Carolina, that we might not fund all of them? And we usually put some, you know, issue of balance or geographic dispersion. Male Speaker: [unintelligible] Male Speaker: Intake would be wide open. Male Speaker: Especially for this program. I mean, you know, in spite of what Jim might say, it’s not totally representative of all 50 states. Male Speaker: Don’t you think CSER investigators are going to have a distinct advantage in the review process? Male Speaker: So would you propose a mechanism that if you have a CSER site, actually -- but you won’t have a CSER site because you’re still competing for the CSER II. So you won’t even know if you’re a CSER site. Female Speaker: So what we have done in the UDN and other programs is to say, “You can’t be awarded for more than one RFA.” So one institution would not have a general site and a diverse site, one institution wouldn’t have one of -- Male Speaker: [unintelligible] clarify. Female Speaker: [unintelligible] Male Speaker: -- need a microphone. Lucia Hindorff: So the UDN was set up so that it couldn’t have the same PI, but multiple sites could be awarded to the same institution. Male Speaker: So one way of trying to ensure this is wide open, which I think we all agree it should be. In three -- and I had suggested broadening it to investigating determination of pathogenicity -- you don’t have to say, “Identified in CSER and CSER II.” Right? We’ve got public data-bases and we’ve got variants, we’ve got, you know, there’s ClinGen out there, there’s all kinds of people doing stuff outside of CSER and CSER II. Sure doesn’t have to be within CSER. Female Speaker: [unintelligible] [laughter] Female Speaker: Sorry Don. Male Speaker: Don [unintelligible]. Lucia Hindorff: So I feel like though I didn’t -- I don’t understand what the feedback was on the last point. I feel like a discussion -- I mean, if someone asks explicitly -- do people think we should restrict either at the investigator level or the institution level, who can get more that one of these awards? Both across the three CSER, RFAs, and also considering this investigator-initiated thing? Do people have strong opinions on that? Male Speaker: I was in favor of restricting. I think we talked about that before, and I still believe that we should be trying to encourage people to apply who are not part of large CSER consortium. Just as long as they will meet with them, if awarded, and that will have some interaction. Male Speaker: So, wait, to clarify Bob, you mean restricting it by excluding it? I mean, in other words, if they get an award for one of the main [unintelligible], they are excluded from getting and iCSR award? Male Speaker: Right. Okay. Female Speaker: I disagree. I think it should be everyone. And then the reviewers should be told, “Just select what’s best.” Then you do your programmatic afterwards, but I don’t think it should be restricted. Especially by institutions. I mean, there could be someone else -- Male Speaker: Yeah, I guess -- boy, this is getting complicated. I think we all agree it should be wide open for people to be able to apply, but I think we could run into real trouble if we don’t exclude awards to -- you know, you might end up with one institution with like four of these which would be kind of crazy. Male Speaker: Jim, that discussion is kind of premature. Male Speaker: Okay, good. Male Speaker: I just want to know, who’s getting in the door? Is what I was getting at. Male Speaker: And we’ve heard two different opinions which is fine. Anybody else want to offer? Male Speaker: It seems reasonable to me to exclude the CSER people because they already have funding in this general area, and presumably a big advantage. But it seems to me a mistake to exclude people -- other people from the same institution from applying. Male Speaker: Well you know who has a CSER award before you decide -- Female Speaker: Back to Terry’s point, where, you know, we would have to make it clear that we wouldn’t expect one award from the same institution. Or how will we rephrase that with the same PI? Male Speaker: The same PI -- Male Speaker: [unintelligible] Female Speaker: Do that because these would be done at the same time. Male Speaker: I think from a perception point of view, I think if you don’t say that you can only get one of these RFAs, then the people that you probably want to try to get one of the investigator awards are going to say, “You know what? I’m not going to have a chance with this. This is all going to go to the people that are already embedded in this program.” So, I mean, that’s an unfortunate reality. I mean, ideally it should be open to everybody, and, you know, the best ideas win. I agree that that’s the most wonderful ideal way to do it, but I think you’re going to discourage people. Male Speaker: I agree with everything Bob says. [laughter] Male Speaker: Bob? Anything else you like -- Male Speaker: You’d like, in general or -- Male Speaker: How do you like Tchaikovsky versus Shostakovich? [laughter] Male Speaker: Friends, please. Male Speaker: So I think there was language in the recent encode RFAs that -- because there were five that went out. It said something to the effect of, “Anyone can apply, but funding will take into account whether PIs would be funded under other RFAs.” So it’s not necessarily excluding people from getting funded, but it’s sort of leaving that opening that it’s not -- they don’t have a necessary advantage. Male Speaker: But in this case -- I mean, we already said we’re not going to let the same PI get grants from more than one, but here the uncomfortableness had to do with institutions. So I guess the language then would be, “Anybody can apply, but we will be looking for institutional diversity?” Female Speaker: No, I think [unintelligible] Male Speaker: No? Okay. Male Speaker: No. Not institutional diversity. Male Speaker: Oh. Well, then we would just -- and that’s fine. Then we just adjudicate it when it comes in. That’s easy. Male Speaker: I’m wondering about the size of these things. Where did you come up with the 300K cap? Female Speaker: That was the average cost of an NIH grant; we felt that was a reasonable one. What would you suggest? Male Speaker: I’m just wondering if you took into account how many patients you could sequence with this or things like that? Female Speaker: No. The expectation isn’t necessarily that they would be doing a large amount of sequencing in these grants. It would -- you know, they could be doing a whole host of things, building on that kind of research being done in the [unintelligible]. Female Speaker: Yeah, right. Male Speaker: Kirk wasn’t the only one that was concerned about the size of these grants -- who was it? Lucilla, you? What was your concern? Female Speaker: My concern is if the intent is to get a whole lot of people to apply, then you have to have, you know, a good reason to go for it. And sometimes it will cost more than 300. We know that. I think by the same rationale, you would be limiting the people who will apply or the kind of ideas that will come up. Actually, I wanted also to clarify, I wasn’t saying we should have fewer than this, I think we should have more R01s. We could have one less of the CSER itself to make up for those. Male Speaker: I would agree that imposing a 300K cap seems low. I mean, you could sort of indicate the target at mean is around 300, but I think giving people flexibility is good. I mean, it’s -- you know, that a relatively modest size grant. Male Speaker: I agree with that especially with regard to how expensive it is to interface with clinical [unintelligible]. Lucia Hindorff: Have you heard a specific alternative amount? Does anyone want to propose one? Male Speaker: I thought Jonathan’s comment was, “You could say that we expect the median to be X, but would accept, you know, proposals of --” Male Speaker: What’s the current cap? Male Speaker: Isn’t the current cap 500? Male Speaker: Yeah. Male Speaker: So why not just -- Female Speaker: Over 500 they have to get program approval, so -- Male Speaker: I know. Male Speaker: You’re just cheap, Jim. Male Speaker: Understandable. Male Speaker: Okay, I think we got a good discussion. We have heard diversity of opinion, and staff will take that under advisement, but it’s time to vote. So can I get a motion to accept the, thank you, Val. And a second. All in favor? Any opposed? Any abstentions? Thank you very much. Thank you. Male Speaker: Can I just make a comment that I think -- oh, this will be embarrassing. I think Lucia did a really good job. And in the pre-council meeting of the telephone calls we had. Very well prepared, very clearly written, compared to some of the previous experiences of [unintelligible]. Lucia Hindorff: Thank you, Bob.

52gaHSxkseM | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52gaHSxkseM | Professor Sara Willems: Are we all equal? Social differences in health and health care in Europe | good morning ladies and gentlemen quite a different topic I will bring you being accurate II in health care I am very honored to stand here today putting the topic of equity on the agenda of this conference is an important signal that one car sends out under its logo Wonka puts family doctors caring for people and by putting the topic of equity on this this year's agenda of the conference Wonka shows that it is fully committed to put that sentence into action thank you for that I'm standing here today on behalf of equity do you repeat an association for quality and safety in primary came one of Wonka's networks and today is actually a moment of glory for her equip because in the last five years we have been working on the question how the concept of equity relates to concept to the concepts of quality and safety in primary care this work has resulted in a consensus statement which was recently recently lounged and which I'm happy to share with you in the second half of my talk but before I counter that I would like to start with an experiment and I don't know if the lady from techniques can put the lights on a bit in the in the auditorium and because I would like to ask who of you have heard about equity everyone who has heard about except standard not the hand standing up right so that that's quite a few that's good okay you can sit down again okay can I now ask everyone all the members of equipped to stand up people from equip please stand up yes great people great network and now can I ask everyone from Vasco da Gama to stand up for scooter Allah yes over there young peope and now I keep standing up keeps keeps coming up yeah for scooter hammer also standing up very well now everyone older than 25 younger than 35 standing out 35 year olds great people who have been in practice less than five years standing up please okay now you watch carefully people of equity observe who is standing up these are the ones that you need to speak about a crib because you want new people in equip these are the ones you have to talk about the young people if you see older people talk to them because they want you in to Ahmed okay you can sit down now so I can check already want to do from my list of this talk being finding new people for equipped next question and you can raise your hand who did not visit the accurate boot in the last few days who did not yeah raise your hand you did not it's a shame on you okay keep your hands up keep your hands up who does not not like Belgian chocolate or French wine if you don't like it put your if you if you still like it put your hands up so everyone who has not visited the equable and everyone who likes chocolate or French wine go to the boot because we are having a survey over there and if you fill in the survey which is about equity you can win a bottle of French wine or a box of a Belgian chocolates and please go because I don't want to take the chocolates home ok next to do I succeeded being keeping you all back awake although I was wondering I'm quite wondering whether anyone was asleep after the former presentation but you're all awake now and back into the business of equity so I can continue with my story and my story begins with some good news and I think we can we can use some some good news and this is my good news this is as is mentioned by dr. Chawla in his keynote lecture yesterday the hand of our population has never been better before health expectancy is rising and keeps rising and the person the European citizen that will become 120 years old is probably already born today however my good news show and quite quickly because if you look at health expectancies in Europe and although her life expectancy is relatively high in Europe if you compare to other parts of the world there are quite some differences between countries life expectancy in Europe ranges from 60 69 years in Kosovo 72 in Romania to 82 in Switzerland and Iceland quite a big difference but what about differences within countries what about differences in health expectation between population groups within countries and for that part of my story let me take you to Belgium this is the city of Ganz which is the most beautiful city in the world this is my home town this is my hometown and on the the city of Gantt that's one of the biggest cities in Belgium to put things a bit in perspective 200,000 inhabitants city of Ghent and then on your left-hand side you see the University of Ghent and on your right-hand side the community health center and I'm actually also chairing and so both places are a bit like home to me the city of Ghent is also the hometown of these two great boys leander on the right and Andy on the left the two boys were born with a few weeks difference seven years ago and their two best friends they met in kindergarten they were in the same kindergarten and then they went to the local school together and they're now in look in the local primary school for a couple of years and today they're the explorers of the neighborhood in which they both live they have very similar lives there a lot of time together the two of them very similar lies or not Leanna's parents are both high educated that is a GP mum as a researcher the family lives in there owned detached house with a big vegetable garden and a dog Andy's parents they're struggling to get by they were doing quite well actually they worked both as workers in one of the local factories and things were going well until the day mother got chronic back pain and she had to reduce working until the point where she is now being on long terms and the family has to survive with one wage they're having a rough time and they're having it very difficult to pay the medical bills at the end of the month two boys seven years old at the first sight very similar lives but with different chances in life already now already already at the age of seven when they follow the odds Leander can expect to become 80 years old and II can expect to become 74 years old and they are there are a lot of Andes in Europe if you look at this graph the blue squares in this graph they will show you they show you the number of children living below the poverty line in the different European countries and again large inter-country variances can be noted from 3 percent in Denmark to over 22 percent of the children living in Spain in poverty and Andy is probably not even on this graph because in this type of graphs they are using a definition of poverty which is extremely low this kind of graphs use as poverty line and family income which is lower than 60 percent of the mean or of the median income of the country when you compare this to but if you if you look at Belgium this would mean a family income which is lower than 15% of the net income of a family where both both mom and dad are GPS so that means that although these numbers are very high if you think about it even more children are living in more in very difficult socio-economic situations in 2014 Dimitri's in all they Roo reviewed the evidence on health inequalities in children they identified 201 studies in which children's health was described according to social class and 9 of those studies were looking at differences between children from different socioeconomic backgrounds and looking at their general health and all nine of them showed that there that there are significant differences in the general health of children according to the socio-economic background of the family 49 papers looked at developmental problems and again over 90% of those papers showed exactly the same thing the lower children are on the social ladder the higher their risk on having developmental problems and not only poverty is directly related to worse help simply having lower educational level is associated with a shorter life and this graph graph describes you the gap in life expectancy between the highest and the lowest educated in different European countries this graph runs up to more than four years for men in the Slovak Republic and although the differences in Hull expectancy are already considerable the differences in healthy life expectancy are even bigger and the lines in this graph show you the number of people or the number of respondents indicating their health as good or very good the blue lines are the respondents with high incomes and the green lines are respondents with low incomes in some European countries you can see that the differences between the green and the blue lines are enormous so people lower on the social ladder do not only live a shorter life they live larger parts of their life in bad health so this brings us to the question what are the roots of these differences how come people lower on the social ladder are losing years of life and when I asked my students at Gant University I teach the medical students in our University and when I asked my students this question they're like a bit uncomfortable and they're turning around on their chairs and usually there is a brave student standing up and saying very quiet often saying this often has to do with unhealthy choices those people make let's go back to the two boys yes Simon probably eats less healthy and II probably it's less healthy than Leander and his mum smokes and the family does not run in the garden after the dog on Saturday but they watched the newest theory on television that's true but that's because mum is tired of worrying about how to have to find them the ends meet at the end of the month she fears the medical bills and she's worrying that she will not be able to give her children the future that she dreams for them and because heating up a lasagna in the microwave is much easier than cooking a fresh meal when you only have a stove with one pet because you have reduced supply in electricity and because mum suffers such a high levels of stress and never learned how to cope with the stress in a healthy way she smokes yes health behavior is an important driver of help but it's not all in an an an analysis of McGinnis showed that or estimated the impact of health behaviors on health outcomes about 40% 30% that's important that's a lot but it's not all in the same analysis Megan is an all showed that the social determinants of health being the circumstances in which people live and work count for more than forty percent being for forty five percent and also healthcare mattered explaining fifteen percent of health outcomes other similar analysis even speak about an impact of 25 or even forty three percent of the variation in health outcomes being explained by the healthcare system whatever exact proportion it might be it is an important part an important part of our health outcomes are explained by the way the healthcare system is organized and let that be a part of the problem of health inequalities the way the healthcare system is organized an important testimony of how it can go wrong with your ghen ization of health care was given to us by Julian Hart not a coincidence he was a GP he was a GP working in a little mining town in Wales of which I don't even try to pronounce the name and he was a GP with two feet on the front arm in the field he witnessed the life of my of the miners every Dane and cooter Hart published an important publication in The Lancet in 1971 in which he said that the availability of good medical and social care tends to inversely to vary inversely with the needs of the population served 1971 in 2013 a European consortium of five universities conducted the koala cop study quality care quality costs and equity in primary care in Europe and we were very privileged to be part of that of that European study 2017 this study showed that despite the universal and egalitarian goals of health care systems access to general practitioner care in Europe is still determined by patients socio-economic and migration background so going back to the analysis of McGinnis and colleagues this means that a considerable considerable proportion of the health inequalities between social groups can be avoided they can be avoided if we organize healthcare differently those inequalities in health are therefore partially preventable and therefore they are unfair and unjust and in that case held inequalities in health inequalities in health become inequities in health we all agree that tackling inequities in health is a very important issue and the impacts of healthcare systems is considerable but how can a health care system contribute to more equity in health and the answer is very simple in order to contribute to health equity a healthcare on itself should also be equitable that's a very easy answer but it's it's actually a very difficult answer because what does that mean a critical health care does that mean we have to provide exactly the same here for all of our patients if we do what about monitoring blood pressure if we need do we need to monitor the blood pressure of wara of all of our patients and as frequently but if so what about black patients of which we know that they have higher risks for hypertension doing the same thing for all patients is not equitable health care doing the same a giving all patients the same care is actually inducing health inequalities or health inequities in order to provide or in order to create an equitable healthcare system your health or the provision of health care should be different it means doing different things for different people care should vary according to the needs of the patients and secondly it should only vary according to the needs of the patient and not according to other characteristics of the patient such as his age gender income ethnicity language professing a proficiency or knowledge an important issue in creating equitable health care is ensuring equal access to people for people an equal need and access to care here is not only securing that everyone everyone can can access the health care system but it also indicates that services they have access to are the same and that the patients don't have to do different things in order to get access to that health care some of them having to pay more or having to know more having more knowledge in order to be able to access that system so in kuala cop's we looked at access to health care we asked over 58,000 european patients visiting a GP practice and whether they postponed health care in the in the last months because of financial reasons and this is the result in some countries up to 30% of the patients indicated that they postponed health care because of financial reasons and we were talking to patients that were already in the doctor's practice so those patients never accessing primary care were not even in our serving but this indicates that in some countries in Europe there might be a general problem with the accessibility of the healthcare system however let's take that's one step herdin when ana analyzing the answers to this question according to the income of the respondents another picture appears in this figure the squares indicates postponement in low-income patients the circles in high-income patients and when the symbol highlights in red it means the difference is significant so this figure shows you that in some countries where there might be a general access problem for example Greece there is no health inequity found between people from different income groups in other countries like Poland but also like Belgium and other countries where there is no real access problem generally spoken and inequities now clearly show and you can see that very clearly for example in Belgium a let's take Belgium and try to explain this indeed access to primary health care is not a general problem in Belgium we have a fee-for-service system where patients pay about 25 euros when they go to the doctor and they get reimbursed by by their health insurance fund about 21 euros so the cost share is relatively low and for people in low income situations the cost share is even lower being one euro and still we see that there is a problem and this problem is caused by the fact that in Belgium people have to refinance and the money they have to pay to the doctor and some of our low income patients simply do not have the 25 euros in their pockets and they don't care whether they will be refunded the day some days after if you don't have the money you cannot visit your doctor Belgian government recently changed this policy and people with low incomes in Belgium they can go to their GP without pre financing the 25 euros they only have to pay this one euro and the rest of the money the doctor directly research receives from the insurance fund ok discussions on equity in healthcare are often reduced to the concept of access to health care in 2015 I crept send out a survey to all of its delegates asking them about equity in the healthcare system of the country they represented and many delegates filled in this questionnaire and they answered us there was in their country no problem with equity in health care because they their healthcare system provided free and universal care to everyone yes access to healthcare is important but also there is more equitable healthcare systems do not only provide equal access for people in equal need but also equal treatment and even equal outcomes for people and equal need and this means that sometimes we need to put in more efforts to reach this goal recently we undertook a systematic review looking at differences in patient safety in primary care and looking at inequities in patient safety in primary care and this study showed two things one hardly any studies reporting on patient safety in primary care also include results regarding variations according to the social status of the patient so there were very few studies telling us something about inequity in patient safety but the rare studies that we found that point out that there are social differences important increased risk on inappropriate diagnosis and late referral were reported for women for black patients and for patients with low-income and uninsured patients so there is definitely a problem also in the delivery of healthcare so knowing all this what can we do to improve equity in primary care instead of feeling desperate not knowing what to do about this very complex problem with a waiting room full of patients waiting for you to hurt to be seen by you the delegates of equip they decided to unite and to answer this question together and it started as a discussion during the Paris conference in 2013 and these discussions turned out quite quickly into a working group on accurate and many discussions and many workshops followed that conference in 2013 and finally a consensus statement was written on on equity and here you can see our consensus statement and the picture of everyone who is there to rectify it so the document summarizes in 11 statements the vision of a crib in Accra team in relation to equity and in relation and the relation between equity and quality and safety in primary care and this document was adopted by the equip General Assembly in November and endorsed by the wonka special interest group on equity so what does this document actually say first of all Equipe recognizes that equity is an essential dimension of quality of care as our effectiveness timeliness efficiency safety and patient centeredness it is a core principle and it should provide practice organization and processes of care in general practice and now I'm referring to the lecture that Michael kids gave one of the on the during the opening ceremony measuring what you do in practice and for which patients groups you do it gives you new insights and in our community health center in Gant we measure or we monitor our flu vaccination rates over the last 10 years and previous winter we succeeded in vaccinating 78 percent of our older population and for years this should have been the reason for a party on Friday evening because yeah we did it however this winter it was different because this winter we had more informations on the more information on the patient background and in our system than the years before and we when we analyzed our data according to the social position of the patient this is what showed it showed very clearly that even in a community health center where we are very much busy and trying to reach all of our patients we did not succeed in vaccinating the most deprived in our in our group and that we created some kind of an inequity in our health care system or in our in our practice this data formed the basis of all the basics of a quality improvement project in our practice that now is set up by to our students and we hope by next winter thanks to this quality improvement project we will be able to have a party on Friday evening again because we reach also these patients working together extremely important by bringing together the expertise of health and social professions and by a better coordination of care patients will be cared for better than when you do it on your own how this is organized really depends on the context in some context it needs to be organized in this way whether in another context it needs be organized completely different and again again I refer you to my kids examples where he showed some examples from around the world on how people work together with different disciplines to take care of people in primary care health care is largely dependent on the social determinants in which people and the conditions in which people live and work and equip strongly recognizes the importance of community oriented primary care the strength of it lays in the facts that you start from a diagnosis of your community you start from the needs in your community and a second strength is that you involve the community in designing and then implementing interventions to tackle those priority health needs community oriented primary care is very important important family doctors working for more equity in primary care should be supported they should be supported because it's difficult to do this they should be supported if they use the principles of proportionate universalism this is a very posh word nowadays over that is used quite a lot disproportion universalism focusing only on the most disadvantaged in our society will not reduce health inequalities or health inequities sufficiently if you want to reduce the steepness of the social gradient in health actions must be taken universally but with a scale and an intensity that is proportionate to the level of disadvantage and this is what we mean by proportionate universalism we need to train our GPS and we need to train our future doctors in the idea of equity and on social determinants of health and I'm very very proud to be able to show you this picture this is our last cohort last year's cohort at Ghent University more than 400 students received their medical degree at Kent University and each and every one of them got information and lessons and was thought about the social determinants of health from year one in the educational program so from year one to year six they see me appearing and they know already at the end of their career if I walk into the auditorium they know what a lesson will be about and I think one of our strengths is also that I work together with the people and who are giving the clinical lessons because there I can bring in the equity principle close to the the more clinical information they get from my colleagues finally be an advocate I have been working with Yonder mass near for almost 20 years young was a head of our department before he retired this last October and I heard young giving a lot of speeches and every speech in our departments he ended with words I feel privileged to be a GP it is a privilege to be part of the lives of so many people that privilege that comes with a duty the duty to be an advocate for your patients and for the communities you work for let me end this talk with these two two great boys again Leander and andum I wish them a life where they can further celebrate their friendship a life in which intergenerational poverty in which the cycle of intergenerational poverty and the impact of it on health can be broken I think wongkum for putting equity on the agenda of this conference and but by doing so contributing to the further development and improvement of equity in primary care in Europe this makes a difference for this seven-year-old boy thank you [Applause] | WONCA Europe

8Aue4bnsio8 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Aue4bnsio8 | Effectively and securely collaborate - Nextcloud & Online Whiteboards | Nextcloud Conference 2023 | [Music] hello everybody uh to start I need your help because I want to ask two questions so please answer fast as we don't have that much time so if you think about the last months who has used at least once a physical whiteboard thank you very much and who has used at least once a digital or an online whiteboard okay you see at least there are some more numbers and I think that's a very interesting survey and result we got now because we see that as the wine L but the Whiteboard has become virtual digital online and accessible from everywhere it gets to use more often and I want to tell you today what is an online whiteboard so imagine the physical whiteboard you have and then stretched into almost Infinity so where you can connect all the people from all over the world and start adding content in real time like uh sticky notes images documents so basically everything you have done on your dig physical whiteboard you can now do uh online and this provides us with a challenge because people need to learn using these kind of tools and I think it's a something really great now because we can start doing workshops and meetings in a much more sophis icated way simple example imagine you want to do a brainstorming session in a chat it's um maybe not that not the best tool for doing that because it's missing the visual part and the humans they are all visual people and this is why this way of Co collaborating visually brings a big advantage and makes collaboration much faster so if you think about your collaboration workflow starting maybe in a chat going into a video conference and then jumping on a whiteboard and doing things there visual visual is a is a big help and uh this is why so many organizations have started at least during the pandemic online whiteboards and they have become an essential tool for for designers for for HR for project managers they use it for for brainstorming creating mind maps also the whole Chile methodologies start to be uh somehow represented on the online White board and we see a lot of companies that are still relying on physical walls putting a lot of sticky notes and cards and the problem is basically that um it's difficult to see that when you're remote so and the other problem might be that these cards fell down when you walk too fast away so in this case doing these things digital is um is a big Advantage now when we pitch usually the online whiteboard one of the difficulties is the use cases because imagine you start on a blank piece of paper your cre creativity is almost endless and that's also somehow uh what somehow related to the use cases you can Implement with an online whiteboard so you can do a lot of things but you need to figure out what are the important things for you and for your teams for using an online whiteboard most of the online whiteboards are browser based applications so meaning you can just access them from every device and from all over the world meaning as well they Cloud hosted Solutions now as we talked today a lot about privacy data security and this is a core element of uh nextcloud um I'm here from from Cabo and Cabo is a an online whiteboard we developed with a small software company in in Switzerland and if we look at the market it's a it's a very powerful feature online whiteboard and we also focus on on the security we even f once about putting the data somewhere into the the Swiss mountains but we didn't do that as we found some better hosters in in Germany like the open Telecom Cloud so cboard in the end it's a gdpr compliant online whiteboard you can get from the cloud you can host it by yourself on premise and this offers a lot of uh customizations and uh also a set of public API developers can can use we created an integration with nexcloud so there is an app in the nextcloud marketplace where you can get your cboard app and you can log in and this is the cool thing now because when you're in the workflow about collaborating with your team you have everything in one platform you have everything in nextcloud and then you can jump immediately during a call or during a session on the online whiteboard work creatively do a brainstorming session and overall have everything in in one solution so we might know maybe once there will be a new icon for for the Whiteboard yeah that's all I wanted to tell you today um you can test colar board for free there is also a free version and um try the next Cloud integration if this is something you would like to test so thank you everybody and have a good rest of the [Applause] [Music] conference | Nextcloud | UCQjN5Fs5QSz1loJqLb5bkew | 2023-10-05 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 855 | 4,584 |

oMsaFKh8XqA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMsaFKh8XqA | Are Allergies Normal? Discovering the Shocking Truth Behind the Silent Epidemic | the more disease is generalized the more we tend to think is not a disease is a trait this is the normalization process of a disease we should not fall in this trap of thinking that allergies are normal like isn't normal to be fat diabetic are having acne it's easier to blame our genes our god than to have the courage to learn and make the life changes that we need to do i know there are many people that don't want to make any changes in their lives and prefer to take medications and move on from suffering to suffering but there are those who want to learn and evolve the allergic reaction the presence of an allergenic substance for us activates the b cells that transform into plasma cells and begin to produce type e antibodies these antibodies instigate mast cells to produce histamine histamine is an immune defense response hormone against the outside world it increases external sensitivity putting us on alert among other actions it make us sneeze have more mucus discharge from the nose or eyes and increase the need for itching deserves to remove what bother us these reactions are defense response mechanisms to something external but why do we over react to something so harmless the immune system has two main types of response coordinated by the t cells or t lymphocytes th1 and th2 th1 activates a cellular immune response based on cell attack th2 activates a humeral immune response bases on antibody attack people prone to allergies have a predominance of th to type immune response they are out of balance because they have too much th2 then th1 there are several causes for this but one one of the most important of all is intestinal health the mucosal immune system protect us against the outside world and is very important for our natural immunity the mucosal immune system has its operative central in the gut there our generals coordinate all our immune response and one of those actions is coordinating the th1 versus thu regulation this immune system is influenced by the microbes that live in the gut and while the beneficial bacteria encourage a proper balance many bacterial and yeasts increase th2 response thus dysbiosis a bad intestinal flora can lead to a loss of tolerance to the outside world gut health is important to our immune system let's look now to the possible causes food not all dysbiosis cause constipation or diarrhea sometimes there are few intestinal symptoms hiding an unbalanced intestinal flora that leads to a th2 immune response the modern diet which in sugar and dairy products helps to stimulate the growth of bacterial and yeasts that were rare in our barely nation times the lack of antioxidants that lower histamine and calm our immune system doesn't help either antibiotics the use of antibiotics is a russian roulette according to michael jersey neuroscientist author of the book second brain it can lead for example to a microbial imbalance that generates more th2 more intolerance and more allergies infections one of the causes little known by many is intestinal parasites intestinal parasites can lead to increased allergic symptoms as well using officials defense cells that fight against intestinal parasites can lead to symptoms of allergic rhinitis in summary a more ancestor diet such as palio or mediterranean diet can help a lot to reduce symptoms and immune system avoiding the use of antibiotics or minimizing their damage with probiotics when it is necessary to use them is also a protective attitude keeping an eye on intestinal parasites and eliminate them when they are present is also important but even if we are very careful with our body we still can have allergies and why this happens well there's something else you need to know about histamine [Music] histamine is important to defend ourselves from aggressors real or unreal whatever histamine is besides an immune hormone also a neurotransmitter involved in flight or fright responses i mean survival responses so histamine increasing the brain our alertness arousal but also memorization and learning process of a stressful event faced with situations that demand maximum alert where we are afraid of suffering where we are distressed someone where the world is a dangerous place histamine helps to memorize this stressful event and learn to respond to them later there is another situation where histamine can rise and cause allergic symptoms relieving a difficult past memory by revisiting a place or by going through the specific time of the year when it happened can cause histamine to rise the allergic reaction when one of these details reappears the mind reactivates this mental file and triggers the reactions time space but also sensory information like smell taste touch image can be mental triggers because when two neurons fire together they can wire together and then the runny nose reappears itching nose or eyes or so on always as a memory or chronic event because if we never experience it we have no memory of it facing a stressful situation we can increase our histamine in blood and brain giving rise to the allergic symptoms in the sensory organs nose are eyes most relevant to the specific event if we leave it before a similar experience or we can recall the experience and the levels of histamine will increase in blood and brain giving rise to the same symptoms let me explain better you will not have an allergic reaction when you leave it for the first time but when the situation repeats again for example when students approach the exam season they can have an allergic reaction it depends of each one or for example when you go to a place where you suffered a lot where you lost someone every time you go through a stressful situation where your mind cannot tolerate again if you have allergies improve your diet rebalance your gut health and if you suspect of an emotional cause seek help microphysiotherapy is for me one of the most important weapons but there are other therapy very helpful as well like hypnosis be of feedback or emdr as you see we are much more influenced by the food lifestyle and emotions than by the genes because we are humans not robots we are like a body mind cocktail well that's all for today see you in the next video | André Dourado |

tNHE7alQPvI | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNHE7alQPvI | Oven Baked Crispy Potato Wedges| The Fireside Creator | hi guys welcome back to my channel today we're going to be making crispy potato wedges i'm starting off with four russet potatoes make sure you wash your potatoes well my seasonings are going to be garlic powder cayenne oregano parsley and olive oil as you can see my first potato has an internal rust spot on the inside so i'm going to set that potato to the side and cut the next one i'm going to cut this potato in half and then in quarters to have nice evenly sized wedges you don't want to cut them too big or too small because once you put them in the oven you still want them to bake evenly [Music] the easiest way to cut potato wedges are to cut them diagonally at an angle so you'll have at least four wedges on each half of the potato leaving you with eight potato wedges all together from one whole russet potato you want to place them into the bowl and cut the next potato following the same steps now that all the potato wedges have been cut and placed in a bowl in a small bowl pour in a half cup of olive oil and add in your seasonings i'm using one teaspoon of parsley one tablespoon of cayenne pepper the cayenne pepper is to add just a little spice to the potato wedges one teaspoon of oregano and lastly one tablespoon of garlic powder you want to combine all these ingredients at this time you want to go ahead and preheat your oven on 400 degrees fahrenheit [Music] then pour the flavored olive oil mix in with the potato wedges make sure all the spices and oil coat every part of the potato edges place the potato wedges on a tray covered with a baking sheet line the wedges up spaced out evenly and put them in a preheated 400 degree oven for about 40 minutes or until crispy when placing the potato wedges on the baking sheet you want to place them skin down to make sure that when you actually put them in the oven that each side of the potato is being cooked the potato wedges are fresh out of the oven and look at this they look delicious add your dipping sauce you can use barbecue sauce ketchup ranch honey mustard whatever you prefer i'm ready to eat what about you if you like this video please like comment and subscribe don't forget to hit the notification bell please share with everybody in your contacts and if you feel up to it post me to your social media hey we gotta get the word out i need a thousand subscribers tell your people to subscribe bye you | The Fireside Creator | UCWI3LU8gfPkIwiZd3fjz_lQ | 2021-02-06 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 461 | 2,391 |
u59TeAmwg-s | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u59TeAmwg-s | Alibi | NEW TRAILER AND INFORMATION, What We Know | Rainbow Six Siege Operation Para Bellum | the Rainbow six team has finally released video regarding one of the two new defenders coming to Rainbow six siege during Operation Parabellum the video they released just a few hours ago is for the defender alibi and whether you've seen the video or not it will be playing up on screen every once in a while and we're gonna dive a little bit deeper and discuss who alibi is and what her gadget really means for the meta of the game now obviously every operator release changes the meta in some sort of a way some more than others and alibis seems to be shaping up to change the meta pretty drastically as seen in the video alibi can deploy holographic projections of herself during around now we remain to see how this actually is active in the game but based on the video we can kind of speculate a few things it looks like she's going to be able to deploy two holographic versions of herself whether that they can be deployed simultaneously or just what at a time or even their active duration again remains to be seen but in the video these holographic copies of herself look exactly like her we don't know if they behave like her or what but regardless they look like her so operators on the attacking side will see one probably think it's her and shoot it in if she's nearby she can see where these attacking operators are and get to jump on them because they think they're killing the real version of alibi now again we don't know how these Holograms actually behave we don't know if they're gonna stand stationary like they did in the video or if they're actually going to try to mimic the actions of the real alibi in-game I think that if these holographic versions of herself didn't move and they just stood stationary staring in one direction I don't think that would really change the meta way too much because a lot of players when playing siege are moving around constantly they're leaning or they're going pro and they're running around they're doing something so having holographic versions of a character and having them do absolutely nothing I don't think that would impact the game too much as most people would learn okay that's just a fake version I'm not gonna shoot that I'm not gonna give my location away but regardless we'll be seeing how she actually plays in game on xx during the livestream of the pro league I'm really excited to see how Alibi actually plays in I really am excited to use her I think these Holograms are gonna be a good addition to the game if they are implemented correctly now we're gonna dive a little bit deeper again and read her bio that was released on the rainbow 6 website my apologies if I butcher some of the pronunciations and these things I'm not the best at reading things but let's go right ahead and read this picking alibi is an invitation for battle of wits with your opponents this defender is all about finding clever ways to force the attackers hands any hesitation comes at a heavy price the character of alibi was inspired by undercover infiltration specialist in the Italian rug a pimento operative Oh special unit she's a cunning woman with a gift of infiltrating defense networks of organized crime her name is Aria DeLuca she was born in Tripoli Libya and immigrated with her family when she was only three years old her father managed a small ordnance manufacturer using his contacts to open up exports DeLuca earned her understanding of Italian firearms through the family business and training on the shooting range at 18 Aria entered the European Championships and won gold in two divisions following the event a recruiter convinced her to join the police force DeLuca's precision shooting skills shot her up the ranks and she served for a time with the elite rug pimento operative especial in fighting organized crime she eventually earned a spot in the GIS and following a successful operation in Afghanistan despite being separated from her unit she was signed out for undercover work in organized crime she infiltrated the the Guerrera crime family and spent several years among them before bringing them down from the inside now I can't apologies for butchering some of the pronunciations of the names and whatnot I'm not the best at reading those things offhand but we could gain a little bit of understanding of who this new operator alibi is while the bio is never really there to serve as here's what their gadget is here's what they do it gives us a nice little lure and a little bit of backstory as to who she is and how she came about again I'm really excited to see how operators gonna work and play out in the game we'll be seeing a little bit more during the livestream to see how this gadget actually works let me know what you think in the comments down below and if you're excited to see Alibi in action thank you guys for sticking around watching this video and i will see you guys next one cheerio mates [Music] | Thunder Cheerio | UC6MQEEjQPQLDcJFxG8_LtwQ | 2018-05-14 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse

ipJwdnF-zxE | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipJwdnF-zxE | Universality, diversity and cultural rights | I'm a presenter of a TRT world and I'm very excited to be moderating this special Facebook live discussion with two exceptional guests on this the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights well 70 years on and yet we still need to go back to basics and ask some fundamental questions our human rights truly universal or do cultural rights in fact clash with universality in today's world increasingly globalized and interconnected but yet so deeply divided and fragmented are we seeing new shifting dynamics competing dynamics between these terms between universality cultural diversity and cultural rights are these mutually exclusive terms are there a contradiction in terms or can they be truly mutually reinforcing well as you might think 70 years on seven decades since the Declaration on the universal rights of human rights has been signed we are still grappling with some of these hotly contested issues and I am pleased to say that we are very privileged to have with us two prominent experts on the topic joining us for this Facebook Life the 1986 Nobel laureates for Literature wali Shree Inka who is the first African to win this prize he's a world-renowned playwright author and poet a longtime professor of comparative literature in his native Nigeria but also at leading universities here in the United States and around the world including Oxford Yale and Harvard a long time dedicated and highly committed passionate defender of human rights we are deeply honored to have you with us professor shrinker we're also very very privileged to have with us the United Nations Special Rapporteur in the field of Cultural Rights professor Karima by noon professor banner and teaches international law at the University of California Davis School of Law she's also the author of your fatwa doesn't apply here untold stories in the fight against Muslim fundamentalism Karima been known has been Special Rapporteur for right since 2015 so we are very very happy to have you both with us we're equally happy to have you joining this discussion from around the world do send us your thoughts your questions and we will get to them at least in the second part of this discussion I will though begin and start itself with a question to you Karina by noon today at the UN General Assembly you presented your annual report this time looking at the interconnectedness between cultural diversity cultural rights and universality before we go any further give us your definition of the principle the basis of universality when it comes to human rights in general but more specifically to cultural rights thank you so much for that question today and it's such an honor to be here with both of you and with all of you to discuss these important topics so universality is actually a very simple idea it is the idea that all human beings everywhere regardless of what categories they fit in to have inherent equal human rights it's the idea that there is no such thing as a second-class human being and it's not just a beautiful idea it's also a basic tenant of international law and I argue in the report that it's one of the most important legal principles codified during the 20th century professor by don't let me stop you here because it is certainly a noble idea it's a wonderful idea but in practical terms does it mean very much can human rights truly be universal when we all belong to different cultures we have our own cultural values and norms isn't there a contradiction there I don't think there's a contradiction there at all because the point that I have made again and again is that cultural rights are a part of universal human rights they're not a trump for those rights the right to take part in cultural life the right to take part in cultural practices of your choice or not to take part in cultural practices those are fundamental human rights but they're not an excuse for the right to violate other human rights they're not an excuse for violence against anyone or for discrimination and states have reaffirmed universality again and again beginning with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights but then in all of the recent Human Rights tree these that we have seen such as the Convention on the Rights of persons with disabilities so this is clearly a principle of international law it is hard law and I think it is deeply meaningful in the lives of human beings all around the world but it's an ideal we haven't arrived there yet and what we need today is the political will to get to the goal so did you find this political will because I know just a couple of hours ago you were at the General Assembly as I mentioned presenting this report I imagined there was no unanimity when it comes to the way member states have have reacted to this do they agree with your conclusion for the most part that our cultural differences don't matter that we can have a one-size-fits-all when it comes to human rights well I would say a couple of things one is I was very pleased to have the opportunity to present the report to the General Assembly today and I'm grateful to the states that engaged with that report I was sorry that more states didn't speak up whatever their views there was a statement from the European Union strongly in support a statement from the Russian Federation there was rather critical of the report but I'm thankful for engagement even when we have different views that's what the United Nations is all about but there's tremendous support for the report from civil society all around the world and in fact I think much more support for state from States than was expressed in the room but I think one of the key things we all need to do individuals governments civil society organizations is to speak up for universal human rights don't just take them for granted don't just take them for granted and that brings up a lot of different issues including the fact that a lot of people believe that this is some kind of an imposition from the Western world that the University Universal Declaration of Human Rights began not as a global project but as a Western project turning to you will show you in case you can called an African literary Statesman and an interesting thing you once said is I grew up in an atmosphere where words were an integral part of culture how do you define culture what does it mean for you and how does it fit into this wider debate in terms of you know what's great in theory and what's achievable in practice thank you first of all I regret that I wasn't present when Kareem I presented a report I wanted actually asked to be there because I wanted to look at the faces of the representatives of various galavan's those violators of Human Rights I would have loved to hear their comment on what she had to say still culture first of all is a total it's a synthesis of the entirety of the productivity intellectual creative technical productivity of any society and when I hear expressions like cultural relativism I have only one thing in mind that to throw a challenge to such people that each and every one should go home and examine their cultures the totality of their cultures whether they're productive systems they aware of sharing the wealth of society whether the rituals for harvesting planting the worldview their songs their performance rituals etc etcetera proverbs to examine them very carefully and see whether they will fail to extract any item any idea from those manifestations which contradict the provisions of the you seem to be critical of culture cultural relativism and people who espouse this notion who believe that every cultural context needs to be looked at individually and that you cannot simply impose a universal standard of human rights but I wonder what you say to people who believe and who argue that the universality of values in this case human rights smacks of imperialism that colonialism itself was an attempt precisely to sort of impose blanket standard of universal values on everyone regardless of culture be it asian african it's a dodj it's a judge they know very well that's we're through that challenge that I invite them to declare to the that there is nothing in their culture they are saying their problems their songs their performance rituals if there is nothing in there which actually sustains the ideas which we extract from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights the fact that some people sit around a table as a result of certain convulsions and decide that we must codify set down the protocols that define humanity and define a methods of Association but that they do not thereby have within their own cultures within their own sayings within their own relationships even monarchic all systems have inbuilt human rights and when the so called absolute monarch floats any of those right they know very well what happens to them in various cultures so you see it as a Doge as a diversion or even noon you you agree with this because you've said in your report that the universality of Human Rights come has come under sustained attack from different directions including governments and non-state actors but I think you do point out to cultural relativism more than anything else absolutely I think cultural relativism is one of the biggest threats to the universality of human rights that we face cultural relativism is not the same thing as cultural rights cultural rights is about amplifying human rights through culture cultural relativism is about denying them it's about saying people fit in different categories and have lesser rights and it's the sort of thing one almost only says about someone else's rights one tends not to relativize one's own rights and I'd like to address the charge of colonialism certainly we have to be very careful of projects of hegemony and imperialism there's no question about it but I actually think colonialism was a form of relativism it was actually about saying that some people are different and do not deserve to govern themselves and it's an issue I take very seriously because my own family my father's side of the family in Algeria suffered very greatly during the colonial period my own grandfather died defeating European colonialism in algeria and i know that he was fighting for more freedom not for less freedom for the right to be recognized as equal to any human being not different this is almost counterintuitive because a lot of people will see it as a way for it to force the entirety of humanity to be more tolerant to have less hubris looking at culture in one monolithic way you don't see it that way well in fact there are human rights defenders in every region in every country of the world demanding and defending these rights at risk of their lives and some of the most ardent defenders of universal human rights are located in what we sometimes call the global South and as I say in the report every region in the world has people who advance universal rights and who push back against them this is not an idea that belongs to any one region do you see it as bringing more tolerance to the debate cultural relativism or at least some form of it or quite the opposite there are those who argue that for example some Asian cultures and African cultures are simply not ready yet not just because of that conservative conservative cultural norms to abide to some kind of universal framework for human rights but even because of the fact that they believe economically they don't seem to be on a par with the rest of the developed world what do you say to that yes here here again is another form of application which is quite avoidable it's an issue between power and freedom those who say that human rights are relative usually are those who have already acquired to themselves for themselves for their group individual rights which amount to the totality of the rights of the community so having acquired those rights and seize those rights haven't dominated their environment they don't want to hear about others you know complaining or proposing their own entitlement to human rights so we're back again on this axis of power and freedom those on the side of power including the intellectual apologists by the way because relativism is a very intellectual sounding expression but in actual fact in its effectiveness of human beings it amounts to absolute nothing because nobody has ever come out to deny people their cultural rights the culture rights are a given what is at stake what is at stake is what is extracted by opportunists in order to dominate the environment and who would you mostly blame among these opportunists because I think there's a whole array of opportunists it can be the demagogues the populace or the Rotarians but also some in the Western world who as you once wrote are leading to a more polarized world this vision of us versus the inferior at them so when you hear in this country the beacon of democracy and human rights the United States when you hear comments attributed to President Donald Trump in which he refers to allegedly a whole host of African nations in Haiti SS holes what kind of knee-jerk reaction is that to this multitude of cultures the Western powers which the Western nations which are credited with codifying human rights have been some of the greatest violators of human rights they are the ones who in fact set in motion the most among goes exercise such as slave slavery and slave better people's to suggest in fact to indicate that some people are less entitled to human rights than others so there's no question at all about who's been guilty and of course some of the those who stepped into colonial shoes have ensured that this pattern continues but this time now they wring themselves on the side of the Imperator's you know what they're used to denounce before when they get into power suddenly they realize that our cultural rights are relative after all in other words they are trading in the spores of the original culpable forces the external forces and they should be ashamed of themselves so looking at today's world Karima by noon how does universality based on what you just heard professor shalinka says well how does it protect the rights of indigenous peoples minorities who want to hold on to their traditions to their cultures and want to resist assimilation but yet want if you're protected as well in fact I think we have to take very seriously the histories of attempts at forced to similarly excuse me forced assimilation these are the indigenous peoples colonized peoples minorities in many different contexts but I think you see with the framework around indigenous people for example that there is an emphasis both on a respect for their culture and their cultural choices and their right to free prior and informed consent about decisions impacting their culture but also you see in the UN declaration on the rights of indigenous peoples an emphasis on universality and that indigenous peoples are part of that framework of universality and in fact indigenous rights are within that context of universality universality is not the same thing as homogeneity we need to be very clear and respect for cultural diversity in accordance with international standards is a critical part of respecting human rights but there is also a diversity of diversities every human group is diverse in and of itself it's not just that different groups are different from each other it is that each group that you could come up with contains a variety of individuals with a variety of affiliations and we have to respect all of those diversity 'z we have to respect people's right to cultural dissent we have to respect their right for example to exit cultural groups we can't imagine a world that doesn't exist which is a world of monolithic cultural blocks or what MRTS Sen has called plural monocultural ISM this is not what Cultural Rights is about it is about a genuine pluralism within and under the umbrella of universal human rights as he was speaking my mind just went to just one item yeah this the the protocols of Human Rights no innumerous right children rights of minorities women rights to culture by the way embedded in there but mementos went to of expression and one just created in your matter overfeed only expression no you read my mind yes I see and I think we're both thinking of the same issue yes forgive me to interject but if Karima been doin said earlier on and I think you agree that cultural rights is about the totality of Rights then freedom of expression is someone who is paid dearly solitary confinement in Nigeria during the 1960 civil war we see a recent case in Saudi or at least involving Saudi Arabia the attempt to try to silence murder a critic of the powerful ruling leadership there what do you make of that and where does our culture it's one of the it's it's the is the whipping boy in fact if you like of dictators even the whole catalogue of human rights freedom expression here some dictators especially my continent will say oh no that's a Western concept and it's a lie how dig into the culture of societies even the most feudalistic cultures of the life of systems of governance on that continent and you find that embedded in it it's all a question of method details embedded even in the day-to-day governance of such societies you'll find an error one day or one week open a month sometimes the festival yam festival dedicated to the the subjects of the king to absolutely blow their mind to see everything either through performance through songs which can be as body as insolent as they like that's the opportunity they have of talking truth to power it's structured in the society that is part of culture and so when these dictators come and say oh no no no in our society you know people don't speak when the elders be talking nonsense you know that this is historically false and they've got to be challenged on that score this look into your own culture and you'll find that in there is embedded the freedom of expression in one form or another speaking truth to power how much of that is embedded in your mandate since it's such a comprehensive mandate right that affects our identities as human being not just us as journalists and our freedom of expression so when you see human rights being promoted in some places and completely ignored in others say in this recent case involving Saudi Arabia a close ally of the United States how much of a mention of what's going on certainly you mentioned but maybe not taking the country to task the way someone else someone else might have been how do you see this and how concerned are you that these types of double standards in fact are the reason why the theories of cultural relativism persist I don't know that they're the reason why cultural relativism persists but I completely agree with you that they are entirely unacceptable I have been deeply saddened by the reports of what has happened to the journalists mr.keshe however I have also been very disturbed by the discourse around his alleged murder we believe now confirmed murder that somehow we've heard from some politicians because the government claimed to be responsible for this is important for strategic interests there has to be less insistence on accountability and this is a very unacceptable form of relativism it's just as unacceptable as cultural relativism is and I've been very disappointed for example that there hasn't been a great deal of interest in some of the cases that my mandate has raised in Saudi Arabia such as the case of the Palestinian poet Ashraf el Fayed who was sentenced to death in Saudi Arabia for the crime of poetry which is not a crime for the crime of atheism I don't know whether he's an atheist or not in any case it is not a crime the death sentence was commuted but he remains in prison I'm deeply concerned about rev betta we the bloggers in Saudi Arabia whose crime was simply blogging about liberalism and a free Saudi Arabia he remains in prison we must take up those cases as well and you give the example of you know repressive societies so this sort of human rights abuse is it's sad to say somewhat expected but I wonder to what extent we need to take to task other countries where implementation has to be across the board we're powerful rich countries the United States but others in the West the so-called international community plays and more vital positive role in enforcing human rights my job is to take on cultural rights violations anywhere they happen in any region of the world in whatever kind of political system and in the report for example I criticize both the official discourse of the Iranian government through its High Council on Human Rights which is an attack on the universality of human rights claiming that it's all a Western imposition and which says very openly on its website that it will quote aggressively campaign against universal human rights at the international level and i likewise criticize the withdrawal of the United States of America from the UN Human Rights Council which I think was a deeply deplorable event and the official justification that was given were claimed criticisms of the council but if you look at the statements of the National Security Advisor John Bolton on the same day that the United States withdrew in June of 2018 he claimed that it was because the US was above international scrutiny on human rights which strangely is an argument that in a way dovetails with that official Iranian rhetoric what it is ironic to say the least is it also beyond that hypocritical how would you how would you look at this yes this is it's it's as if the we're talking about colonialism earlier and we agreed I think we're agreed here that some of the greatest violators of human rights have been the colonial Imperial forces who went to other territories or the human settlements and virtually declared them a practice as subhuman the inhabitants of human and it's as if that tradition is being carried on by a country like the United States which says it is above international law in effect that's what it is we drew from the International Court of crimes against humanity I don't know whether back or not but certainly we drew at one stage and since then the American citizen cannot be tried for crimes committed outside I find that so hypocritical arrogant and subversive to the the whole idea of universality and especially as you use the word accountability yes the violators of human rights unfortunately in many cases they get away with it when they eventually out stood politically like this detestable little dictator John Johnny of Gambia whose favorite pastime was administering forcibly hallucinogens to the opposition to prove whether they were which is all the way knocked witches you know slaughter against one eventually he was ousted he's enjoying himself in exile with all the wealth of Gambia there's no punishment it's free to go anywhere so we have to agree that there must be a pursuit of those who violate human rights it's not enough to defend human rights to protect journalists to protect women the vulnerable etc those who are guilty must be taken to account but you took a stand didn't you a moral stand professor Schlenker when I believe in the 1990s you sought refuge you called it a political sabbatical at the at the time not not exactly no not exactly but then you said you weren't all that interested in keeping your green card you in fact you were going to destroy it you said you don't want to be long anymore to this society was this because of the rhetoric you heard from Trump because of the accusations he made toward certain ethnic groups or me the best candidate should have been tried for hate speeches Trump Donald Trump because that was here during the campaign and I saw somebody campaigning for power especially the critical you know global power the presidency of the United States insulting and reducing other beings to Superman level Mexicans Nigerians Asians I just said if America has not yet advanced sufficiently as to reject such a candidate I don't want to continue to be a member of this community it's a simple I participated small level in the liberation movement the black this beautiful movement of the United States a participated in even the racializing certain swimming pools in this very country I know my history you know I feel a part of the black community the black nation of the United States of America and had hoped that America had advanced beyond endorsing somebody who still uses racist language so it was very simple thing and nothing against the now Trump I just said if the American people actually elect this character far as I thought they had and therefore I don't want to be a member of the community that means to visit as I do right now but no more green card it's very simple it's a personal thing and it is part of our history it's not I'm you know this is not the first place where I refuse to step into after certain things happen there china coober once what do you say to that what are your thoughts on this Karima I am deeply disturbed by the discourses of exclusion that we are hearing normalized in the highest levels of politics including in this country and I think it's actually a critical moment to reaffirm the universality of human rights as a tool for campaigning against those sorts of discourses unfortunately what's happening here is mirrored in so many places around the world with the rise of authoritarianism and populism whether it's very prominent candidates or people who are actually taking power from Poland to Hungary to what we see what's happening in Myanmar to some of the discourse in the election campaign in Brazil and I think what's happening here needs to be understood as a manifestation of this global challenge in the form of fundamentalism and extremism of diverse kinds which threatens all cultural rights which threatens even scientific freedom reason and having evidence-based discourse and I think we have to work on this at the global level and that's what makes this 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights so critically important we also have to find a way to stand with people who are putting themselves at risk as mr. Shah Inka has done in the past as well and I think for example of some of the cases I raised in the report such as the case of Mosin Hassan an Egyptian woman activist who is the head of something called the Nasra Institute for feminist studies she has been subject to a travel ban a summons she was finally released on a very large bail one of the initial charges against her was sort of trying to affect cultural change or trying to affect the irresponsible liberation quote-unquote of women if we're going to achieve the Universal Declaration we actually need more muslin Hudson's not less and we need them to be able to do their work I also look at a case from China jinyeong men who was sentenced to 13 years in prison and amongst the charges against him and amongst the evidence used against him was a book that he wrote calling for the implementation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in China this is a completely unacceptable way to mark the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration so from the United States to Beijing from Poland to Rio de Janeiro we have a global struggle and the champions of universal human rights need to come together globally this is not about one region teaching another this is about all of us advancing together in the terms of the Universal Declaration toward larger freedom it's interesting so a lot of work to be done and you mentioned in your report that we need more than mere platitudes to try to achieve this foundational renewal of the universality of human rights professor shoyu inca something we haven't touched on but I think which has been an important factor in driving force and this whole universality concept is technology it's has helped us get this far in terms of being truly universal in many respects yet do you believe that it's providing an important challenge to all of us I know as a writer who probably still cherishes his pen and paper and ink over Twitter and Facebook how do you see this challenge in that it is invading every society whether it's the texts rich societies or the poor nations who have access to the Internet these days and were able to propagate these messages of hate whether it be at the governmental level or at the non-state actor level Boko Haram in your in Nigeria is one example where they use acknowledge in fact I'm a great fan of technological advances you be surprised how suppose that playwright human is like me actually takes an interest ultimately however it's a tool in the hands of human beings and it's a way they use it the technology internet has achieved such a lot in the liberation of many societies the Arab Spring is one example and in Europe the use of Internet in mobilizing people in in actually sensitizing people it's it's enormous unfortunately the human rights many of us are being abused by those who take control of Internet I did we don't even have to talk about fake news which has become an industry in many societies including my role and sometimes I exaggerate and I say that the next World War who probably started by the manipulation of fake news so something has to be done about those who debates others who interfere with the human rights of others to the truth because that is also a basic human right we need to know the truth about what happens around us not submit tamely to the power of internet when internet can't just be taken over by real malevolent characters who have nothing better to do than to create chaos penetrates every society and very difficult to control your thoughts on this first of all I think that this is an area the cultural rights mandate needs to study in much greater detail this is one of the key emerging issues and I think it's one of the places where we really need to rely on the leadership of young people who let's face it know much more about the internet and new tech then then I do and I think that next generation of human rights advocates is really going to have to think about what universal human rights means not in real space but in cyberspace I think you know we had an expert meeting for the preparation of the report and one of the people who participated was a member of the Muslim clergy of former mufti and he was saying how much optimism he had that now people from opposite sides of the world could suddenly find things they had in common and communicate thanks to the Internet and there is this very positive opening up but there's also the terrible aspect of the Internet which is it's become a site where in particular women and others have really been threatened when they try to enjoy their cultural rights in their right to freedom of expression so this is really an area that we need to tackle this is part of I would say really the the forefront the cutting edge of universal human rights and speaking of this before I turn to our first question here on Facebook in the report you also mentioned the fact that there's a well orchestrated well resourced campaign or several campaigns out there by governments by civil society interestingly by nongovernmental organizations to undermine universality so let me ask you this professor shrink every got a question that's come through a question from Kingsley eager Bohr he asks how ironic is it that human rights activists in Africa solicit and get resources from sometimes Western governments that are promoting cultural relativism well I don't know which human rights activists you're talking about but I cannot say that I blame anyone who gets resources from such societies but the simple reason that most societies are divided so I don't know from which branch of society there are people of conscience in our societies just as there are those who violators of human rights for instance who really despise fellow human beings who believe that human beings are relative so I don't really know what you have to be specific for me to be able to condemn or support this so let me move on to another question professor abba noon about concrete steps here we say there's a question he's being asked how do we best engage in the foundational renewal of universality called on in the report on the 70th anniversary and what are the concrete steps to be taken by member states thank you so much for this question and I'd like to say there's lots of things that we all can and should do one is that we all have to speak up for universal human rights many people just take them for granted no we need to actively defend them we need to challenge cultural relativism whenever we encounter it and ask you know whose culture are you talking about who is claiming to speak for culture and what is the legitimacy of this claim how should culture in fact change with our evolving understanding of human dignity we need to call for states to engage in systemic human rights education that promotes universality and challenges cultural relativism and I've also called on academic institutions in particular to play a leadership role here in accordance with principles of academic freedom we need to stand up for the defenders of universal human rights when they face threats and I mentioned some of those cases and I would ask us all to find our own ways of celebrating the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights on the 10th of December of this year read the Declaration share it it is the most widely translated document in the world the Universal Declaration of Human Rights calls on all of us we need to call on States to fulfill their responsibilities but we to fulfill ours as well and thanks for that question professor showing you how do we galvanize the younger generation civil society the leadership of tomorrow how do you make them interested excited by this notion of Universal Declaration of Human Rights how do you give the mistake in this debate and make sure they act I think I'll go back to the homework which I proposed earlier and that as each and every one of us to go back to his or her culture look within the provisions of our culture the manifestations in all media and extract from their items articles whether in the form of sayings lyrics and so on and you will find that it's not a waste of exercise you'll be astonished the parallelism between those cultural pronouncements including mythologies incidentally into the mythologies with absolutely a frame in their own style their own medium the protocols the principles of universality in other words as a meeting point in all cultures but how would you frame the debate though would you frame it in a mainly economic or ethnic or religious context or between developed and developing nations or would you not frame it this way in a holistic version if you come from a society for instance where there's a a deity of children which children are celebrated under that deity as in my own Yoruba Society then when you're going along the roads and you see children rooting in garbage heaps you know that that child's human rights are being violated by adult society and therefore you have to mobilize and put an end to that raise awareness and empower that awareness I forgot to empower those children you've got to provide for those children as dictated by the god of children Cory for instance so a question for you both first you professor shrink are just following up on what you said a question from Audrey at middle or julu I hope I'm pronouncing the name accurately enough is cultural relativism not a weapon for the worst human rights violators to shield themselves from criticism we've touched on it early what else would you say the answer is yes absolutely yes yes a tool which is used by dictators by sadists you know to shield themselves from criticism now go through the entire history of dictators especially on our continent I'm gonna say but not just on ours alone and you'll find that it's when their backs are against the wall when they can no longer defend their actions or when even before the action is taken when they already proposed to dominate the environment completely unmoved assent that's when the result of this fake notion of cultural relativism I absolutely agree and I think one thing that we've seen is that universality is a concept that is particularly attractive to those who are the most marginalized and those who have faced the most discrimination and I give the example in the report of dalek campaigners in India a so-called lower class a lower caste people facing great discrimination on the base of caste who regularly refer to concepts of universality and dignity in their work and we see cultural relativism as a way of trying to take that argument away from them and maintain the power differential it's really a weapon against equality and I have to say particularly been victims of the attack on universality have really been targeted for cultural relativism this includes especially women whose universal human rights are a major site of threat and we have to defend them in this world where so many world leaders are willing to openly denigrate and insult women and undermine their equality and so many civil society organizations nongovernmental organizations and so on have tried to advance women's human rights against that using universal human rights as a tool so we have to defend universality and defend all of the links including the weakest links in the chain and speaking of tools do we need any more tools because that's face it I mean here we are at the United Nations and there are countless tools and instruments and frameworks that the whole membership 193 countries have actually signed up to but do we need more a question from Vanessa sento a professor shrinker do you think that the present in an international instruments such as the convention the protection and promotion of the diversity of cultural expressions are enough if no what do you think should be changed to improve the protection of cultural diversity and what about another person asks Adam met what about economic developments that fulfill economic and social rights at the expense of civil and political human rights we often talk about political humanoids what about these other social economic rights oh there was an American president who said of one of his rivals that the only American he knew who could not walk and chew gum at the same time and that kind of question is directed against that kind of principle I do not see why the promotion of economic welfare of society cannot go hand-in-hand with the observance of universal human rights and in fact if you look at countries which are and developing that's when all the powers been grabbed by a small minority within the community and who also used the cultural relativism to silence dissent whereas when you open up society to the creativity the productivity of the entire society advances I don't see any contradiction between the two I cited the instance for instance of children rooting in you know in garbage heaps in societies I know that we cannot I cannot go to that try and say wait a minute I want to defend your right of freedom of speech you tell me to go to hell because it's hungry at the same time but is it too often at the expense of these expensive these other basic rights Karima be known rights to to education to health to clean water in the rest of it but it's not a zero-sum game these rights are interdependent and indivisible they go together and sometimes the best way of ensuring your economic and social rights is by ensuring your civil and political rights so example for example your right to strike Ammar TSN again has talked about this relationship for example between a free press and combating famine so there are very important linkages and I say in the report that there are multiple forms of relativism threaten the universality of human rights one is cultural relativism we've already talked about that and it's a grave problem but there are other forms of relativism such as those who deny entire categories of Rights such as economic social and cultural rights and I say in the report that being willing to tolerate widespread extreme poverty in the name of markets is equally undermining to universality as cultural relativism so we need to really go back to this interdependent and indivisible framework which is found in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights which doesn't make these silly distinctions between different aspects of a unified human life which includes civil cultural economic political and social rights together to reflect the totality of the human experience of dignity a comprehensive approach in the final minute professor shalinka your thoughts on the way forward and what we need to be focusing on more than anything else no artificial divisions I agree absolutely what karema said we should not insert any artificial divisions if I see a case of underage marriage you know the what I call the rape of a girl child it's really been perpetrated by those who are very well-heeled economically in society who claim immunity because of the social position and even claim the authority from their traditional quote unquote especially religious tradition where it is like that in Nigeria I don't see that I shortchange the economic well-being of that child by crying crime against that violator on this note professor woody sure ink and professor Karima by noon thank you both very much indeed for your fascinating insights and for this enriching discussion thank you it's been an honor to moderate this Facebook live thank you all very much indeed as well for joining us and for sharing your thoughts questions and ideas with us thank you you | UN Human Rights | UC3L8u5qG07djPUwWo6VQVLA |

F6T1DpENEG0 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6T1DpENEG0 | DEF CON 18 - Ed Schaller - Exploiting WebSphere Application Server's JSP Engine | good afternoon uh it's good to see everybody here uh my name is ed schaller and i'm here to talk about uh websphere application servers jsp engine yeah and some work i did with that and uh it turned out to be a very interesting exploit um out of curiosity how many people here actually run or are familiar with webster application server so a fair member number okay so maybe i can move forward to some of this fairly quickly this is a rather complex exploit but it's pretty simple when it comes down to it and it's a little unfortunate when your screen server comes on if i trip first of all um these are outlined uh the slides are going to be on the website as soon as i put them up there with the exploit and such um so we're going to talk about what webster application server is talk about jsps and nulls webster plugin and nulls webin app you see it there and we're gonna have a demo and talk about the fixes and extras and uh should be good so first of all web server application servers architecture websphere application server is ibm's um jee application server it's um one of the more popular jde application servers at least according to gartner it's up there with oracle and microsoft is the top three it's heavily used in the financial services industry and on the insurance sectors and uh it's not very cheap so probably i can go buy it for your own website um but there is a time bomb free um version online the trial you can go and you can get you can download so i have to warn you that uh i have the best authority that the initials was are passed laws but i always get it wrong to say was so you can laugh at me every time i do that or whatever so anyway here we have the common uh network architecture that you usually see in a was deployment you have the client browsers obviously on the internet that then connect through a firewall to your web servers and those web servers then redirect um through the http um the was web server plugin into the actual web servers the this is done with a http connection that is handled by the web server plugin the web server plug first of all this is the common architectures ibm shows it um if you look at this it's hard to see i realize but the main features here is that the big grey box is was itself and you have the web server plugin in between it and the internet so realistically being that the web server plug-and-forge is everything into was if you compromise a web app on wads or was itself through the web container uh basically whatever you compromised has full access to most of the internal resources that lost us with some exceptions depending on the network deployment that's done so plugin is what's in between the internet i'm getting ahead of myself and uh for a while basically do all that so the web server plug-in is uh what you need to describe a little bit first we understand i'm going to refer back to this architecture because we're going to jump around between the different areas to understand it this is basically an extension module that sits inside the web server whether that be for apache ibm's apache which is a ibm http server ihs iis several other ones including lotus dominant on things like that so basically it just connects straight via http to the actual laws instances web container add special headers to keep track of where the client came from and such so it's mostly used for load balancing and failover so that if one application server goes down it detects that and then it forwards to a different application server in turn one thing that is important to realize about the plug-in if you're dealing with a wall's installation is that his primary purpose is not for security in fact it's really not to do anything with security in some cases people i see people actually doing trying to do blocking rules on ihs and such to try to protect things on laws and this can cause issues as we'll talk about a little more later here so let's talk about the url handling in the plug-in itself not all of the requests that go into the url plug-in the web server actually get forwarded back to was what it does is it bases the url configuration it bases on effectively the same sort of things that are done for the web container itself from the web.xml and from ibm's extensions uh configurations inside the water file that you're running on so as we know these are simple file gloves that get pushed in they're matched in sequence the web server plugin is actually very simple although it's frequently misunderstood so if you're asking for a servlet forwards it in if you're asking you know if you have simple global forwards in and what we're going to be talking about is starter jsp is jsk forwards in um if you have the web server for the waz feature of file serving enabled this is a kind of an ibm specific function that if you don't have it enabled static content inside your wire does not get served if you do have it enabled it does get served so if you have it enabled all the connections get passed from the web server into waz this is one i see mis understood a lot of times if a match occurs the connection is forwarded in much like a reverse proxy otherwise the request is handled for the web server the reason for this is it's usually used to handle static content from the web server is a speed optimization so that the static content is searched by ihs or apache instead of going all the way to was insert some java so this is just frequently misunderstood it's amazing how much i see it if you're interested more there's actually a paper about it that ibm has that's referenced in the slides i recommend looking at and it's actually for an older version of was but the plugin actually hasn't changed much in quite a while actually so now let's talk about jsps and how they handle null now we're going to remove from the plug-in here on to the was instance the webster application server and let's talk about strings i assume that most people know about strings strings under java on the office under singing the operating system sitting underneath java is written in c which of course has null terminating strings and which means you can't put null characters into a string and have them used later on because it terminates a string that's been used whereas java is a counted string that can have nulls in it so the big question is of course that we're going to start with here is what happens if you try to open a file in java like test.txt backslash zero so with an old character in in java well actually you get test.txt this has been known about for a very long time formally just a specific instance has been talked about some people on on the web but it's been about known and used in uh contact's place for quite a while so what about the jsp engine inside of was how does it deal with a null character coming in to was jsp handling is very simple it locates the file it translates the jsp into java and then it compiles it into a servlet and runs it so what happens with waz or at least was before it was patched if we request percent00.jsp for a arbitral arbitrary file inside the war well the answer is it actually compiled it as test.txt as a servlet and runs it as jsp this is similar to what i am not even trying to pronounce it those are the characters on the web i didn't make a mistake found in tomcat if you're here i really apologize so this allows us to read files through the jsp engine this may seem not not too useful but we'll see how this can be added to in a series to actually make something useful happen so basically if we have our context root for a web application we just append percent sent 00.jsp to the end of it and we'll get the file obviously we have some restrictions on what files we can get we can't get any file from the web server we want it must be in the war file which is usually expanded and we can't read files and meta in for web ins and it must compile and run as a jsp which actually isn't too useful unless file serving is turned off and you're trying to get files that aren't put on the um the ihs instance that's serving static contents so the question then comes as you're looking at these files is what's a valid jsp it turns out that um basically anything that does include a less than percent sign is a valid jsp as far as the was jsp engine is concerned uh html usually qualifies under this xml um most text files then you use really weird ones like you can download zip files and jar files i didn't know these compiled as jsps but they do most class files also do so you can you can get a lot of interesting things through the through the jsp engine in this manner still not doing anything too too interesting but what about directories um for some reason and i really don't know why if you open up a directory in the same manner in um jsp engine it uh gives you a list of all the contents of that directory and i'm really not sure why because if you open up a normal file in java from like you just do a file a new file object and open you know file input stream it doesn't happen so they must be doing something special here and i haven't been able to track that down the time i've had so basically you can request your context root with a null character after it.jsp and you can certainly get a directory listing which is obviously a lot more interesting than just getting the static files because they have to have directory listing enabled and most sites aren't going to be doing that we hope um there are times when you actually have to use a period in front of the directory this is usually the case with the context root where you have to do percent dot percent zero zero uh interesting enough in some cases you can actually do dot dot but it has the the way that was handles the dot dot uh normalization and checks to make sure you're not getting outside of the war is pretty specific except it only checks for slash dot dot slash so you can actually use this to read the contents of the exploded war i mean it's exploded ear this is kind of one of these things where you see it you're like oh i can almost get those files but i can't so it's really frustrating honestly but you can't do it so this is a lot better than just serving up static files to the js music because then we can list in enumerage internals of your war and what files that you may have accidentally left in there in terms of jsps or other files that are being added to the war in the process of this application running which sometimes in itself can be a really a lot of interesting information i dealt with once application that put all its logs inside the web the the exploded war so once you found out the directories you could get them all so we have to circle back here and go talk about the webster plug-in in most instances of laws you're not going to see direct connections to walls that aren't going through the plug-in or some sort of proxy in front of it and they're good reasons for this primarily dealing with with speed and static content especially so the plug-in wasn't just really designed for security but in some cases it gets in the way of insecurity too so um i don't know if that really means it's a security device or not but the problem is that going for an old byte in waz is easy but the plug-in is written in c and so it really doesn't like the null character it terminates your string and instead of getting your test.txt you get test.txt uh which was then just tries to serve out as a normal static file and if you're not serving static files then you can't get it or if you're trying to do a directory so the next challenge in this puzzle in terms of how to actually do something useful with this vulnerability is to figure out how to get nulls past the plugin so character encodings this also qualifies as one of those things that if you think something is generally known about the industry check most of the character codings we deal with are either ascii iso latin in the united states internal java you have utf-16 ucs-16 utf-16 and uh but what may not be known is that utf-8 is actually how java reach strings natively so even though it keeps in a memory utf-16 it actually reads is utf-8 and so utf-8 is a multibyte light character encoding it's actually a rather elegant character encoding if you follow the character encoding improperly okay if you if you just do it a default implementation don't really think about it single by characters and actually any smaller than the full maximum bytes characters can be actually encoded as multiple bytes um this is explicitly forbidden by the spec um they can follow specs come on actually there's a lot that don't um maybe remember there's been a lot of microsoft iis exploits that have utilized this and it turns out the java also used to do this as well it decodes early long ones this was made known uh as part of another tomcat vulnerability by simon and william and i'm not going to try to pronounce that sentence i'm sorry it was fixed in fixed by sun and their jvm quite some time ago and it was also fixed by ibm they share a lot of common code and so they share a lot of security fixes the problem is that for some reason ibm's fix didn't work it actually has to deal with the fact that sun's jvm now by default uses nio and so when ibm took that patch and applied it to their jvm they didn't think about the fact that um their jvm doesn't use nyo by default to read strings and apparently they never tested this so one of the morals of the story is test your security patches um this has really been fixed and these are the new releases of the jvm uh very thankfully unfortunately this is not any was fixed packs yet so you're still looking at having this uh particular encoding issues in walls unless you actually installed jvm by hand i don't know if they're going to do an ifix of this the ibm folks have been very nice about all this actually so um so let's talk about utf-8 then what we can do with that with the web server plugin well the plugin is in c and it handles single byte characters so ascii and iso latin and it doesn't know anything about utf-8 and especially not overly long ucfa characters so if laws isn't in java using a jvm that accepts already long utf-8 characters then we can just uh instead of doing a percent zero zero we can do a c zero eight zero dot jsp and suddenly we bypass the plugins problem with the null and we get our nodes to the back end java and was and we can actually get these files so plug is no longer an obstacle to doing anything fun with this this gets a little bit better so we mentioned that webinth and meta inf again back here on was are not accessible if you look at the spec the service specification explicitly says that you're supposed to return a 404 for anything inside meta and for webm this has actually been a source of major problems for a long time if you actually go and grab all the class files in was you'll find that it's checked ridiculous number of times um and they still missed one there may be other ones unfortunately um it turns out that their file serving servlet that handles what file serving is enabled actually talks about actually allows us dot slash webinth dot slash web.xml so you can actually grab files outside of the web directory if you're not familiar with java web applications this is where all your configuration is this is where a lot of your code actually is too that you can then download and decompile so this was fixed in pk64302 a potential security exposure with the file serving feature enabled there was no details released about this so there may be other things that were fixed on the same fix pack i'm not sure i never really analyzed it but i know it didn't work afterwards so surely they didn't just check this in the file server uh well yeah so if you do a dodge flash in webinth you can actually get it through the jsp engine as well which is obviously the problem the plugin also however normalizes paths so we have to play our encoding games again to get around that but in which case we can still go in and get the web that xml and configuration for your web application by using uh percent zero percent ae which is an overly long period in our path which the plug-in does not recognize and then our percent zero percent eight zero which is overly long null byte and suddenly we actually get the web.xml this was fixed along with the percent zero zero jsp issue in pk 81387 which i was surprised talking to one of the ibm architects uh security architects that he said this is the only number he can remember for fixed packs so they work really hard on it um possible application source file exposure which hopefully everybody has applied at this point this also works for meta and in case you want to go look at things that are left in there so the big question is is this the whole truth and nothing but the truth you can actually make possible applications first file actually the remote code execution in many instances so again back here in was instead of the plugin we look at jsp striking back if you remember we locate a file translate jsp java we compile it and then we run it as a servlet so if we can get a file into the war we can get remote code execution through this method so i was looking at a web application and i had an interest in discovery playing this game with webm's here's a listing of the directory of webinar and there's this attachment structure does anybody know what that attachments directory is i'm just curious so what it turns out to be is that apache access one is if we implement soap with attachments this is not access to we're talking about access one it's a little older okay um for those of you not familiar with soap with attachments it is implemented very similar to emails it uses mine headers and actually goes through and attaches things as mine entries mind bodies to the main requests so that you have a soap your soap envelope with all this goodies and then you have your attachments that are referenced from your soap service okay when large files actually go through access it caches them to disk so that you're not you know running your application server out of memory in the process of handling the soap attachment anything over 32 kilobytes and by default these get put into the web attachments directory so this directory is completed if not present at startup and guess what it was as jax rpc implementation is based on but not their uh jax ws implementation which is of course based on access to instead so apache access actually has some interesting bugs that make this less true what it would think uh it's very good at optimizing how it reads in attachments from the network so if your service actually doesn't handle attachments it doesn't even bother reading them so it doesn't get to the point where actually caches of the disk which is rather frustrating because we have to find a soap service that handles attachments and at least in my where i work we don't have very many of those if any so it's a lot rarer to have this which makes our attack a little harder um so it occurred to me well what happens if we just you know you have a series of mime attachments you know instead of putting the soap body first like everybody does what if we put our attachment for this body and uh you know so that our attachment has to be read before it reads the the actual soap message well it turns out that that actually works but um there's this other little bug in access the way it handles third local variables that if you do that it actually saves it to another file system directory specifically where your temp directory is for java io which is you know usually slash temp on unix machines um so great we can dos two file systems instead of one with access that doesn't really help us very much so let's talk about soap and coating soap encoding actually allows you to reference attachments we just need the reference attachment and i'll read them in it allows this href attribute to be applied to parameters and such inside our soap message so when used with apache one apache access one it'll actually parse the attachments and cache the large ones to our disk where we want them inside our web directory so this of course requires that we have web services actually using soap encoding so we're talking here about rpc encoded messages as opposed to document literal or rpc literal which are different methods of using so i swear this is not my fault axis1 provides an interesting feature which unfortunately is not present in the was implementation uh the was extension of apache xs1 so we can't use it directly with laws and what happens is that the client for whatever strange reason can actually send a fault to the server as this initial request usually this isn't something that should be happening so not surprisingly the services i'm supposed to send you faults not vice versa so um but the nice thing is that it parses it anyway first and um just for fun so close use encoding soap encoding so uh we can send attachments with them too so not only are we sending a fall we're setting a fault with an attachment and it also doesn't require any web services to be actually configured in access one it just requires the exposure to access one server itself which is plenty enough to actually get this to work so let's talk about actually how to use this um we have to put together a lot of things here to make this actually work first the attachment file names are you know fairly random and uh the first thing we have to do to actually exploit this is we have to connect the walls use the jsp bug to figure out what's currently in the attachments directory baseline that then we send up our attachment as a so fault then we get a directory listing after that and we go through and find the jsp that we put in there with the file we put in there and request it as jsp at which points your file is transferred to java filed and run which means we've achieved remote co-execution on laws with all of it so to demonstrate this we have a little soap shell over jsp which baselines the attachment directly uploads the jsp with the soap fault finds new attachments and then checks that it actually has this attachment in case the service is already handling attachments in which case you have to find your own there is a race condition here in some in on some servers depending on how they're configured and how the timeout is especially in laws instances deployed for development instead of production so in our case we need to copy our jsp quickly out of that directory so it doesn't get removed while we're using it which is kind of frustrating um and then it proxy standard input and standard output from command line to over http to the server so if you're going to use this and finally when it's done it removes itself this is exceptionally noisy in the log so it's not exactly very useful for anything but a demo but it's great for demos so let's do this um here i have a uh was 7-0 instance a 7-0 fix pac-1 which is the last expected vulnerable inside of this i have the demo application which is going to be on the website this afternoon that is running and it actually is being accessed through the plug-in which gives us our plugin page and the access servlet is actually mapped to the slash access one at this point we can we have a shell script that is running our java exploit that takes the the context root directory and then the the relative path the axis1 servlet and gives the command name that we want to execute and with this case we want to execute the um shell so in this case we see it updating and baselining it and then we're hitting it very quickly in this case because this is this instance is running in dev development mode and therefore it removes the our attachment very quickly it then finds it baselines it and it gives the shell of the server on the server so and we have full access to the server that's running lost this tends to make was really unhappy incidentally when they start executing commands it's actually much more efficient if you actually want to exploit walls to actually you know run stuff in your jsp and have stuff natalie stored inside of walls instead of creating a shell because most of these get a little fishy when they see a ps list that um includes a shell being launched from lost cause it really shouldn't happen so afterwards we just uh removed the jsp and we're done so we clean up after ourselves and hopefully nobody noticed but with that exploits very noisy so people will notice hopefully not that you couldn't do it a different way so let's talk about fixes this has been fixed uh first we have affected platforms woz runs on an unbelievable number of platforms i counted 15 and i'm pretty sure i'm wrong i'm pretty sure it's more than that when you can see everything ax and linux are the ones i dealt with explicitly because that's what we run um case insensitive file systems actually are interesting because they're not vulnerable to zero zero.jsp bug and um this actually i believe has to do with an earlier fix for a security problems with case and sensitive file systems uh the only one i know of is of course windows that was runs on so if you're running windows you don't have to worry about this one um oh well you still have to worry about the encoding issues than that the overly long utf-8 encoding obviously depends on the jvm that's in use on the application server in non-ibm jvms hopefully this will be fixed before the ibm one at this point um those two that i know of are going to be h pucks which runs on hp vm at avm and solaris which runs on someone obviously um in terms of versions 6o was fixed in 6035 which is the same as the 602 which is fixed pack 35 61 wasn't fixed back 23 uh 7-0 fixed pack three and other versions you can apply the ifix there was also fixed packs for five one and five two but i don't have access to those to try them so hopefully you have this done let's talk about ibm for a second 15 platform variants that i count i'm on the low side i'm pretty sure because i didn't count things like a ia64 for windows and such four maintained versions about 60 different variants can you guess how long it took them to fix this ballpark eight months how about two weeks i'm impressed how do you do 60 different variants in two weeks i have a public fix from the time i tell them i was uh very very surprised uh if you are dealing with ibm for securing vulnerabilities i would recommend that uh when possible that you always submit them as a pmr that is a service request because that is how they handle everything related to their software and if you don't do it that way you're kind of in the la la land where they're not sure what they're doing and you may get forgotten about but if you do as a pmr they will get it done and sometimes they can do absolutely amazing things like two weeks to fix this sort of thing they also kicked off a lot of people too as we'll talk about in a second um their fix is actually very elegant this is you know my pseudocode for it basically they looked at the file they're trying to open and they ask the operating system to canonicalize it and they compare the two and this is this really the file i'm opening and if they don't match it uh well if there was a 404 which is nice um this actually has problems with it it causes a lot of problems with people running on on unix systems that for whatever reason we're putting symbolic links in their uh exploded wires because that will fail that test right there because the canonicalization of a file path in unix will actually return the uh absolute path not the symbolic link so that was a problem there's some fixes for that i haven't looked at specifically uh the webm fix is uh not quite as elegant they just check to make sure you have don't have weapons anywhere in the url path which solves this problem uh it does work very well my guess is though i haven't tried it if you try to have a subdirectory that's called web if it won't work but hopefully that shouldn't happen too frequently so before we talk about workarounds we're going to talk about some workarounds that you can do but first um you're more than you get behind on patches at this point if you're if you're working in workarounds uh it's really good thing you're not running you know other servers so the best workaround that i i like the best is actually disabled the runtime compilation uh and reloading of jsps this is a little frustrating the information center will actually tell you you can disable it the application level this is done with uh putting some specific features into the ibm web 8c.xmi there used to be a way to do this at the container level it's still in the information center and i can't get it to work so i don't believe that it's supported anymore this is makes the fix a little hard because you're dealing with it as an application but application level instead of actually doing it on your entire server or your cell um of course once you disabled runtime compilation jsps you're going to want to make sure that you uh pre-compile jsps either deployment time or batch compile them before you go in there doing that works great um the other way to do this is to block jsps which we have to talk about a little bit of course if you actually need direct access to jsps this is not going to work it's going to break your application but for a lot of people these days using mobile view controller or whether that's structured spring mvc or some other um web framework the usually your jsps are only in views and only four to two internally so you actually can do this without breaking stuff um there's a lot more issues you can talk about before blocking jsps so i've got a question what are the following byte sequences have in column if the titles give away so 80 through i'm not going to read these they're all invalid byte sequences for ucf eight you can guess is what the ibm kvm does with them this is the fixed jvm do you think this is a problem it's an empty string this actually uh in the the unfixed preview it only does it for 83 ff because they didn't consider over long and valid anymore this is obviously you know very useful for ids invasion because you could throw as many invalid utf-8 characters into your url as you want and the ibm jvm will ignore them on the parses of them so suddenly you know you can be you know requesting a whole path and you know replace every other you know add a new character a new invalid you know percent 80 or something valid utf-8 code anywhere you want and get around it uh of course this also makes it very difficult to write jsp blocking rules uh so if you're going to write a jsp block and really have to worry about this and there's lots of fun games you can play with encoding these encoding issues honestly the other thing you need to remember if you're going to try block jsps is that there's more than jsp that by default with laws start jsb start at jsw or also handle those jsps and in some cases also start with jspx of course if you're using newer versions um so if you're actually going to go and try to do blocking jsp rules you need to actually use the utility long decoding got to keep that in mind got to keep the decoding of invalid ones the replacement string and of course the multiple gsp connections extensions at which point i would really recommend applying patch because this is not trivial to do one of my friends tried um and he did a good job on it actually but it was not very pretty so i know in browsers everybody goes home and starts playing with this um don't forget that your browser will normalize your dots and such it's also does the same thing with url encoding in some cases firefox and windows actually for some reason will translate a percent 2e into a slash which it won't do in linux interestingly enough uh if you're dealing with a plug-in and load balancing you need to hit the same server every time obviously otherwise you're going to be bouncing between servers and the jsp that you uploaded may not be on the server you're hitting so um server affinity with the server plug-in the web server plug-in is handled by um the jsection cookie so js jsps by default on their first run actually give you a cookie so as soon as you baseline the attachments directory you just need to make sure that you keep your cookie and uh you should be hitting the same server unless that server goes down they never go down right so on the defcon cd there's one text file with a url to a website because i missed the cd deadline sorry but on the website and i'll be uploading this there are uh slides um there's a tool to do the mapping of your jvm which actually will list out all the different character combinations for utf-8 go through them and then show you what they're being converted to and also what they do with the file system actually reveals some other issues with ibm jbm if you're interested uh there's also a sample application that has nice referrals to try this on your own obviously you'll need to download the trial if you don't have was yourself um there's also an exploit for the xs1 faults that i showed you the same one with the source code for all of the above so there's a lot in there and you're more than welcome to send an email on this and tell me that my code sucks i would appreciate that actually so in conclusion anytime you're dealing with a barrier between one implementation of a specification another implementation has special specification whether it's ucf8 whether it's http whether whatever it is this is a really really great place to look for bugs um in this case of course we do between the plugin and java and then between java and os now sometimes we have to do with multiple cases um some people i i talk to people about java and i had to do java for my job for the last several years and not a lot of interest in java but these same sort of things actually happen in uh you know managed environments like java.net and java of course not immune to that and what i really like about this is that you have a small series of these little vulnerabilities that you know you write down your reports as you know low or medium and never get fixed but sometimes when you can weave these all together you can actually make something that really makes a big problem so um if that are there anybody who has

supposedly feel like because I have not been down that road but I assume I feel something like this okay so here we have the gorgeous poutine from Burger King Burger King Carrie is one of my favorite poutines I love their cheese curds I love their gradient and I hit with ketchup and it is so so good hands down the while this meal ever back here hiding behind the king of burgers we have a curve ball and we're gonna get to that in just a moment for now we go to my to my retirement community to my home to where I live and that is in the middle the center of a sloppy [ __ ] this is an experience I will never forget I've never had the ultimate pleasure of simultaneously eating all my favorite foods at once it is wild alright so this is a curveball something you may or may not know about Mia something you may or may not know about me is I actually love tuna sandwiches and that's what exactly this is tuna sandwich now my favorite tuna sandwich isn't actually from Subway it just worked for this scenario but I do love what's up with your sandwich the thing is I can make the best to the sandwich for myself at home so that's the only caveat here I know it's a strange choice I had to throw it in to tell you guys that i legit deprived myself of eating tuna sandwiches because of how unpopular they are on the Internet lots of people are tuna sandwich haters I can't help it I love the taste of them and that's weird because I don't even really I don't like like seafood it's like the only thing I delete and that is like I feel like that's so far from seafood in a way all right we must replenish and re sugar phi and introduce you to a couple of my friends playing the wall first it's all in vinegar chips has to be alia salt vinegar as well just gonna grab a couple here but this these gentlemen is my favorite salt vinegar chip on the planet it's just that thin light cloudy snap [Music] can't be beat I love the flavor I love the texture the only thing about Saul vinegar chips is just they're dangerous they're like little ninjas with a ninja stars in your mouth and they will chuck daggers got your palette and leave you in agony so eat responsibly when it comes us all maker chose now conversely this is another favorite trip of mine all address I know some places in America now have it but it's pretty much a Canadian chip by its by nature it is a totally different textural experience but if you're getting an all dressed chip in Canada this is the one you get its ruffles ridged edge sticker but it's beautiful okay with a little ranch we'll see you something I wouldn't usually do but it works all dressed is a very hard flavor to explain but imagine like vinegary smoky a little bit heat a little bit of sweet that's a chip for the ages so because this is a death-row meal every time I think about Jethro I always think about the movie Green Mile which is a great movie I love that movie Michael Clarke Duncan till this role we all know Tom Hanks is just a G at this point absolute master of his craft killed his role obviously just a great movie and I always think of when he has his last meal and he's like such a sweet man and he like shares his corn bread and even like I think mr. jingles the mouse he gets a piece I think I can't remember quite for sure but I think so so that's just a memory that always goes with when I think of death row meal we must get another bite of this whopper very saucy and nice I cannot lie I am getting full I do want a little more of this hot dog though cuz it was tasting also we too good this is legal once in a lifetime you knowing me I don't really ever see myself doing this again in my life but I'm glad I did do it once I can scratch off my food bucket list I can rest easy now knowing that I fulfilled my ultimate glutton this dream all in one sitting so we applaud this accomplishment and we have a bellyache pretty cool because sauce Queen used B loves sauce for like the first time in her video and well then be loved like reposted her video on her community table so that's pretty cool that to have that post so in front of all those people so maybe I'll get a light little little boost off that but that's it ladies and gents how's the whole kit and caboodle whopper wings poutine Coney dogs a tuna sandwich full of sugar dr. pepper all dressed and solemn vinegar chips at this point if I go any further I'm gonna have a rough time and I'm not really looking to have a rough time I just want to be just satisfied with my my last meal so we cheers to favorite foods and we say Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night til the next one you know what to do eat good live well stay true [Music] | Hoody's House | UCerXTNUdZQNRi5VARhvpp-w | 2019-12-11 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 1,520 | 7,571 |
KKdVBA5G-r8 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKdVBA5G-r8 | Saraya, Jon Moxley, MJF and more on this week's Dynamite: Wrestling Observer Live | the very first match of the night aew Tag Team Champions the acclaimed and FTR who hold all the other tag belts in the world they defeated the guns and swerve in our Glory uh kicked off the the show this is one thing I think mjf should be on the show every week physically be there or have a a part where you know you're gonna hear from mjf later on you need to have that I think with John Moxley I'm not sure anymore if you need that with Brian Danielson but I think you need to have the acclaimed on there every week to at least do that rap it's not like it's a you know incredibly mind-bending number of bars with with great you know Intrigue and insight put into those lyrics it's just basically insulting lyrics but people love them and they love the Acclaim so you got to figure out a way to get them in my opinion on Wednesday nights every week makes a little bit easier that they're the aew Tag Team Champions but they're not a group that should probably get pushed over to Friday nights but they defeated the guns and swerve in our Glory one of the key parts that took place in that match happened before where Keith Lee decided to blow off swerve Strickland during a fist bump so drama building between Keithley and and swerve it seems like from the time they put that group together they were going to be breaking them apart and uh once again a little bit of heat between those two for sort of hitting Keith Lee in such a bad spot with Billy Gunn who did go after or swerve before the match that's how he was kicked out of the building and that's why his presence was not around ringside during the match uh afterwards uh we got the mjf video on pardon my take on that radio show on that podcast talking about how the doctors uh told mjf not to attack uh not to travel after the attack by the firm he says history is going to be made at full gear and then compared himself to generational Rivals like Bruno San Martino John Cena The Rock and others I'm JF said he doesn't like John Moxley but he respects them uh because he's had to work his ass off to get where he's at mjf said he was born to do this act in movies and be the flag bearer for aew and bring pro wrestling back back to where it needs to be he says William Regal bet on the wrong horse and come full gear the devil gets his due this was really an excellent promo and him talking about how in his mind he has been overshadowed he had uh the the match with Moxley I can't remember exactly what it was but Matt Hardy took that nasty fall backwards off that scaffold or whatever it was the the scissor lift he was on that overshadowed him you know he comes back and what happens the fight at the press conference that he overshadows that so there's always something in his mind as a heel that's been bringing him down that's been a reason that he's been overshadowed blamed Chris Jericho a couple of times for that so Chris uh so mjf great promo I haven't heard the whole show uh on pardon my take but if you've again great promo to build uh his match with Moxley in a great promo to want to hear the rest of what he said on pardon my take for real interesting a little bit of counterbalance here with Stokely Hathaway with a pre-taped promo and a little vignette talking a little bit about some more backstory between him and mjf because I didn't really like how mjf was jumped by the firm and that's how he turned to be a baby face and going through the table and then not be in there last week I mean I really didn't like that at all but background is important in trying to build a story around what is going on exactly with Stokely Hathaway and the firm and why he has this animus now with mjf why he kept sticking his nose in mjf's business and now we have a little bit more of a hint as to why because he and Stokely apparently according to Stokely you know he forgot where he came from my childhood friend we grew up together in this I want to see you shine and if you shine I shine but instead you're not doing that you're just riding John Moxley on the front end I can't say it on the radio but he's riding without a license apparently according to Stokely Hathaway and he says he doesn't need mjf he's going to do all this without him and uh he's going to see Max in hell so I don't know what all this is really going to mean does it mean to take over the world title does it mean a takeover of all of aew don't know but at least we now have a personal connection not just business that has been established between mjf and Stokely Hathaway so one of his charges Ethan page defeated Eddie Kingston who had ortized by his side to advance in the title Eliminator tournament I hate the fact that they're having this tournament it is hard for me to believe that this is not just going to end up with Ethan page and mjf why you just couldn't be having matches during this time to lead up to this I I don't know but they like tournaments there but Eddie Kingston took an ego's edge a a incredible looking razor's edge off the top rope I'm off the second rope realistically that's where Ethan page was standing but it looked a little shaky there as far as Paige being able to get Eddie up but then threw him down and he didn't land on his back as much as it looked like he landed on his tailbone making the landing there but Eddie Kingston loses Ethan page moves on well surely this is going to play into more of Eddie Kingston's frustrations about where he's at right now and uh dealing with the people in the world that he is in so Paige is going to face the winner of bandito and arush in the next round of the tournament I will not give you any Rampage spoilers but all of these uh things have already been all decided so if you want those you can listen to last night's wrestling observer radio at the end yesterday's or today's wrestlingnews.com wrestling news a podcast you can listen to that at the end and uh and you can get what happens there Renee Paquette interviewed Jose the assistant roosh in dark order about still wanting 10 to be a part of their group uh John Silver called Russia a roosh bag high five he uh with himself on that one he was all proud of himself but uh yeah so 10 and roosh continue even though did anybody really really ask for this but uh this is what roosh got with Andrade he punched out Sammy say okay well you're going to get this deal with 10 now and just kind of spin wheels here for a little bit Arya divery uh was in the ring with uh his trust Butler that he has with him said he wanted a title match with Wardlow for the TNT belt and if he lost Wardlow could have his Butler no surprise he lost perfect use of Arya tavari in this I'm not necessarily thrilled with seeing him but I am thrilled with seeing Warlow murderized guys and we need to see more of that I like though at the end finally when Warlow uh said that he would like to take all of these titles because Powerhouse Hobbs uh was called out he came out Wardlow said the TNT title is going to be his and in fact he's going to take every other title in the company and he forgot Samoa Joe was standing behind with the roh TV title and he waylaid word low with that belt I don't know exactly what they're doing here and you do have two belts but until roh becomes a TV show like you can kind of merge two belts for a while and the TNT title in the roh style to have Wardlow walking around with both of those or to have Powerhouse Hobs walking around with both of those wouldn't be the worst idea in the world so a three wave of feed between those guys killing each other I will be for Dr Brent Baker and Soraya face to face you know Soraya had her line in there about wrestling at the Tokyo Dome she has not uh should believe she's wrestled at the ariaki Coliseum I believe when WWE went over there I'd have to double check that too but showed some emotions showed some fire you know went back and forth with Brit Baker who no surprise defending aew I'm the one who built this thing you're a superstar just strolling through Soraya firing back at her you don't even know what it's like to be a superstar your ego is just the biggest thing in the room right now all this going back and forth bottom line is they will actually be wrestling at full gear so cerase first match in a long long time and Brit Baker together so again they need to get some fire behind that women's division they have talent there they have good people there they just got to get something to click will that be the thing or is the only thing that they're going to have for him to make some click Britt Baker and Jamie Hayter Jamie hater did get in a win over Sky Blue Jay Lethal defeated Trent Beretta which ended up leading to an all-atlantic title challenge uh that that comes a little bit later on for Lee Johnson to face uh orange Cassidy coming up on Friday John Moxley had his response to mjf which I thought was fantastic firing back right at mjf trying to put him in his place calling him out saying that he's the devil no no John Moxley has been in some places with some people and has seen the devil face to face in mjf you are not the devil they he both he and Regal hopes that he can put the company on his back one day and take him to the promised land but he's a far way away from it and then the final match Brian Danielson defeated Sammy Guevara two Falls to one and Brian Danielson took a shot with a chair in this match that was nasty in the first fall but he survived through it picked up the victory I think I get a victory for making it through this show today we'll be back Russian server live there's a lot of criticism about professional wrestling you're right over there what's going on with you there's up with the mic sorry no what do you need so much water for today it's coffee put that away crying out loud it's night time you're not gonna be able to sleep you have to have another drink right now God help me now where was I people didn't like this so much I hear I can't remember what I was angry

PaPb2SQyS08 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PaPb2SQyS08 | #05 Unlicensed Podcast - PodcastPalooza with Claude | Welcome to the RF elements Unlicensed Podcast I'm Caleb Knauer this is Tasos Papadopoulos what's going on man what's happening Caleb how are you doing good living the dream yeah I hear you I hear you I like I like my new last name I kind of like Papadopoulos that sounds kind of cool it's a very kind of cool vibe to it you know so um I'm gonna run out of names here quickly i might have to start looking it up on wiki but we'll see how long we can keep this going this is a there's a long long line of Greek last names that you can uh you could probably use in in all future episodes yeah that my hillbilly self can pronounce we'll see we'll see so what you've been up to man uh you know same old same old man keeping busy just the daily grind the daily grind very cool yeah I've been doing the same enjoying our false fall bitching that last time but we had a one really beautiful weekend a fake fall here so looks like we got another one on deck I am super excited my favorite time of the year so yeah it's it's starting here too as well I mean we were like in the high 60s in the morning which is good because we've been in the kind of mid to upper 70s every morning so it's starting to come and actually I was watching the news today and I saw it this morning like oh it's still going to be you know in the 60s today and I thought about you I thought about it this is this is the Texas you know false you know uh fall coming and stuff like that so I'm excited too I didn't need my hoodie this weekend but I did wash it I'm like let me just get this thing uh ready for ready for action here so you gotta prep you gotta prep you gotta prep that's funny so y'all we're gonna cut to the chase and get to the main heart of the episode here we have a very exciting episode we have our first guest so yeah I'm excited uh assuming we don't totally botched this up so intending to have our first guest so joining us here is Claude Aiken who is the president and CEO of WISPA and we thought it'd be a really good opportunity to talk to him uh with WISPAPALOOZA coming up the big Vegas show that you know we were spending a ton of work planning everybody knows it's coming everyone's pumped so we thought it'd be a good opportunity to bring him on and talk about what the show means for the industry for WISPA and him in particular so with that said let's bring him in all right Claude what's going on man what's happening you know what we're uh we're staying busy lots of things going on at WISPA but uh most one of the things that's taken up a lot of time these days is uh prepping for WISPAPALOOZA which is coming up so very excited about that that it is definitely the the biggest show of the year in our industry by far gets bigger every year um how many how many folks do you think are signed up for this show this year gosh it's it's always hard to tell because our our folks tend to sign up a little bit later so I don't know why that is um and and I think it's gotten worse because of the pandemic but I mean 2019 we had about 2500 people so we're hoping for something something around that uh you know covet always kind of throws a little bit of a wrench into things but uh that's that's what we're shooting for at least okay well before we get too deep into the conversation talking about WISPAPALOOZA and the WISPA shows in general um for those of you who don't know Claude this is an excellent opportunity for him to introduce himself and if you would kind of give us some history of your sort of work with WISPA kind of what WISPA is doing and then from there we can just sort of lean on to lean into what these shows mean for the industry and WISPA in itself yeah absolutely absolutely so I think if you're if you're a WISP particularly WISP in the United States you hopefully at least know who WISPA is uh we're the association uh that was started by WISP represents the fixed wireless industry but I think as as our industry continues to grow and evolve I think we're we're I think the way we kind of frame ourselves now is is we represent entrepreneurs and innovators in in the broadband space we've been around since about 2004 is when we first got started uh the shows started happening a few years after that I was brought on board kind of mid 2018 after about a decade at the FCC to kind of really amp up our our advocacy and public affairs work at WISPA and I think I'm really proud to say that I think we've done a not to toot our own horn but I think we've done a pretty pretty good job uh we were doing some calculations last year and just last year alone in terms of some of the the advocacy victories we're able to have on behalf of WISPs we've generated over a billion dollars worth of value for for the industry uh in terms of government affairs wins so for a a relatively small player in in DC I mean we're kind of we kind of are are the industry that we represent we we're nimble we're small we're low budget uh but we get the job done at the end of the day so that's that's kind of a little bit who who WISPA is and then a little bit about about who I am and uh and where we are right now that's great I mean the advocacy efforts that you guys are doing are just fantastic and we're so much more effective than what we've been able to do over the years and it's been super important with all the developments with things like CBRS and then the move to six gig when that eventually goes through fingers crossed uh you know soon soon soon that we keep hearing right so but you know those oh sorry go ahead the uh I was actually just going to jump in there it sounds like the FCC is going to be taking up some stuff on six gig uh next month so uh fingers crossed that that's good and we're engaging on that already very nice fantastic so you know and those are the big ones but there's so much other sort of smaller things in the background a lot of people don't really recognize or see a lot of that so I think it's important to share with uh your constituency you know these efforts and folks know you know where their money's going for and where their efforts are going for so uh and of course WISPAPALOOZA are either with WISPA shows are a great opportunity to do so um so good stuff so these shows you know we're talking in this this uh episode about these trade shows so you know from a summary perspective what do they mean for you and what do they mean for WISPA in terms of you know the the value that it brings to the industry the value that it brings to WISPA itself and then you personally you know what are some of the highlights that you think are a big thing to point out here especially for those who haven't been to one of these shows we've had a lot of new users we've talked to recently uh with that are working with us and you know there's gonna be a lot of first-time people especially with it not being able to be in person last year there's gonna be a lot of new faces so what would what would they expect to see on their first big WISPA show yeah so I think I'll take it a little bit in in reverse order and kind of the way that that you mentioned it you know coming from the government background that that I did the folks that I tended to hear the most from and and I did hear from WISPA a little bit but you tend to think of the the broadband industry as as the Comcasts the ATT's the Verizons like those are the broadband players they've been around for since time immemorial and and they're huge but I showed up at a WISPA show and you you go to the session that we usually have every single show which is like WISP 101 like how do you start a broadband business and and they're like 40 people in the room who have either just started an ISP or are maybe like a year or two in and feel like they need to get some more education on on all of the nuts and bolts of being in the business and that was just amazing for me to see and to be able to get into that session and be like hey this is what you need to know from from a government perspective uh from a business perspective from marketing we try to cover just about everything and that's just one of the the hundreds of sessions that that we have I mean at the end of the day WISPA is a non-profit and so that means we're mission driven to to advance this industry and to do the the best that we can to advocate for and educate uh this industry and a big way that we do that is through our two big trade shows WISPAMERICA in the spring and then the bigger one WISPAPALOOZA in in the fall and the goal there is just to try to bring everyone in the industry together to learn as much as they can within a short period of time about every single aspect of what it means to be running an ISP whether it's from the latest developments in spectrum policy in DC to how do you manage HR to how do you market your services we try to cover a little bit of everything so uh in the best feedback that we get at the end of the day is from new folks into the industry or even folks who've been in the industry for a while who were like oh my gosh my head hurts after a week at a WISPA show and it's not just because they've had a good time and stayed out a little bit too late but because they come back with so much knowledge about that they're looking to apply to their ISP to grow to do a better job serving their customers uh and that's just the education side we also try to bring bring along folks like yourselves here at RF elements have a big trade show floor so they can see the latest and greatest in gear and and just be able to see what kind of cutting edge services and equipment that they can put into to their business to to make it better I mean because at the end of the day I think my goal for the organization is to help our members make their lives a little bit easier and their businesses a little bit better and that's at the end of the day what we what we try to accomplish regardless of what it is and we try to do a lot of that through the trade shows well that's I mean that's definitely you know some of the big value of it for sure so and especially the sessions the sessions are so beneficial especially when you're new and it's kind of funny I saw someone post the other day they're like uh I need to be in three places at one time to pick up all these sessions there's so much to learn and they're like well just bring bring more staff and he was like but it's only me so there's there's a lot of people in that position um but it is great to see like you know over the years I've been coming to these for a shoot however long they've been I've been you know wearing one hat or the other and it's been great to see where you know used to be one guy and then over the years it's two or the next thing you know they walk up with a team they've got eight or ten folks there because they've grown and they're bringing everyone they can so you know it's been great to watch not only the industry grow as a whole but the individual companies and the friends that you've made over the years for sure so yeah that's definitely a very exciting part uh for myself as well just like uh Caleb you know I've been to every WISPAPALOOZA I may have worn different hats in attending there not always with RF elements but for sure to see the growth that uh you know WISPA has had and more in detail in the actual WISPs themselves right you can see some of these small companies who have become much larger companies and and just to watch all the growth organically for a lot of this stuff is uh really exciting really exciting to see yeah it really is and like I said I've been at this uh a lot less long than than either of y'all have in the space but it is really it's so exciting to see this and to see how gosh I think I just saw on Facebook the the other day someone was posting pictures from a WISPA show 10 years ago and the hair color looks a little bit different I had hair I had hair and so it that was cool to see you know that was like a single room event with a couple of table tops outside from some of the vendors some of whom were still still around some of whom who aren't but then to come in and see a show that's several thousand strong uh with like a hundred vendors and booze on the show floor just it is a testament to the fantastic work that this industry has done in in connecting the unconnected right because like you like you were saying it's it's because of the success of WISPA's members and and the attendees at uh at the shows that that we are where we are are today and I mean the shows do drive a lot of revenue for WISPA which then gets plugged back into helping the industry further but it's just awesome to see how far folks have come in such a relatively short period of time in in counting in ISP years right I think Caleb and I have started like dating ourselves pre or post POE right so we're were you in the industry before POE was even around or after you know now POE is everything right absolutely absolutely yeah we're like at some point we're just gonna be sitting on our rocking chairs on the porch just shaking our fish yeah kids don't know anything so yeah but um yeah that's great so when I think about these shows you know I've always been on the exhibit side of things but you know that's that's my big view uh in the adventure that is but you know I think obviously from a beneficial perspective you know you've got the sessions which you've talked about which are really important the exhibit hall is always a good time a lot of folks don't realize that the exhibit hall doesn't really hard close in that middle session so if they're not in sessions it's always a good opportunity where things kind of die down a little bit and come talk to us so you know from a manufacturing perspective the exhibit hall is great because you get to meet a lot of people face to face and put names to faces and it's just so much easier to communicate you know two people talking versus online or over a video chat or something uh there's lots of opportunities sort of flex on the competition you know a little friendly flexing every now and then is good uh do a little sneaking around do a little poking around uh product launches you know most weeks people normally do their product launches this time of year so we may have a little something something to show the the the folks out there which will be fun so and uh you know the variety what's really struck me over the last several shows is the variety of vendors that have come in so you know like those old pictures you showed it used to just be you know a handful of manufacturers and the distributors small setups and that's grown a lot but I think one of the big benefits to the exhibit hall floor that I've seen is the influx of accessory manufacturers and things like that and they're able to not only see how big you know that we are and take the industry as a whole a lot more serious but it's also an opportunity to reach people that they don't have good interests for so you know things like um cable manufacturers jumper manufacturers things like cold shrink you know a few years ago no one knew what cold shrink was in our industry and now everybody does because they came to a show and everyone's like this is super cool stuff even even uh services providers and stuff like that VOIP providers and um you know network management providers and all these other uh different types of software support services for running WISP is something you really didn't see except for maybe just like the one management software that you know was kind of run in the mill back in the day and now it's it's really exploded it's really exploded yeah and I mean I have to really give a shout out to uh to Gary Helmers on on our staff because you know it's not organic that all these folks show up and we try to think of I mean so for some of y'all I mean RF elements you're there every time so fantastic love you thank you for showing up but we also try to say okay what do we think would be the most beneficial to attendees to to show up or where are we lacking and then try to say hey let's let's fill a niche there with like oh my gosh VOIP is becoming a really big deal let's try to get some VOIP folks in in with booth so that uh our our members and attendees can can talk to those folks uh so it takes a lot of work to put this all together uh and hopefully it doesn't look like a lot of work once folks or folks are there but uh yeah big shout out to the WISPA staff for all the all the work that they do in putting these things together yeah definitely definitely that's you know like some of the I think the behind the scenes secret sauce stuff that you guys do is very uh you know important and people would really like to know about like I mean I had no idea that that's what Gary did and and you guys uh you know as WISPA actually you know put time and effort into trying to bring in these different types of you know sources and and different types of providers and what have you what other kind of uh things that you know WISPA does kind of behind the scenes that maybe you know the industry doesn't know know about well you know I think and again I said I came back from uh from a background that didn't necessarily have large scale events in it so just the amount of effort that goes into putting on one of these and the the staff time that it takes to to answer questions and to just put together the the event website to negotiate with the venues to uh to do things like that it's an incredible amount of work to just make this happen and you know I hear some from some folks like man it's that's expensive and it's like well that's because we have to pay for a lot of stuff on on our end as well and we try to keep our pricing pretty on the lower end of what we see other folks doing because we recognize look our our industry is are the entrepreneurs the innovators the bootstrappers we want to make sure it's cost effective for folks to to attend but uh at the end of the day it's all about trying to put together like I said the the an experience for folks that's going to be beneficial to their business across the board whether you're talking the sessions whether you're talking about the after hours stuff where you're talking about the exhibit hall uh and then also using it to to showcase the the best of our industry to folks who might not otherwise be familiar like intentionally trying to bring in folks from government to to see this because I mean I was talking to to an FCC commissioner that we we had come into one of the shows and and their comment was like wow I never knew how big this industry was uh because I mean kind of going back to what I was saying earlier like they hear from from the big guys all the time because they have the you know the 50 person lobbying shops that can hit hit those folks every single day of the week whereas uh you know especially when I started it was it was just me it's just Claude running around trying to the only WISPA staffer to try to meet with these folks I know what that's like but but just trying to that kind of exposure and saying like these these ISPs these vendors this is a big deal and these are the folks who are connecting the folks who you are most worried about connecting and providing competition in areas where you're most worried about having competition just it's a multi-faceted thing that we're trying to accomplish with with these shows both from uh education and then as well as a public affairs standpoint too yeah a lot of stuff going on that people don't realize and I think you're right I mean a lot of people seem to think that it's just some cookie cutter thing that you flip a switch pay some money and all this all these people come together and all these things happen and it's really not the case it takes it takes a lot of money a lot of time and a lot of energy and you guys have done a fantastic job of pulling it off what seems like practically flawless every time I'm not trying to you know you know seem like love or anything like that I mean but honestly it's it's a huge thing I have a a very small understanding of what it's like to put these little things together and what you guys do is just it's incredible it's incredible that it works every year so far so yeah and again I just have to say hats off to the WISPA staff and all of our contractors and everything who come together to make this happen it's a big part of what we do uh just to try to help advance our industry I know we changed our booth layout about three different times so sorry Gary um but it's all that stuff you know you've got however many manufacturers and of course you know they all think they're the biggest and baddest and need all this stuff so I mean it's a lot of cats to wrangle for sure for sure so um one of the other things I want to talk about here is the training vendor training so there's a lot of good opportunity and you know I think when folks are new to this they don't realize that there's a lot going on you know the the weekend before they just look look at the official hours okay Tuesday through Thursday or whatever it may be um but don't realize that there are so many other opportunities for the vendor trainings and stuff so um what's your input on that yeah I think that's that's a really good point Caleb uh and it's one of the things that I think we honestly could do a better job communicating because we advertise the trade show and those are the dates this is the this is the room block this is when you need to come but to your point there's all these other folks uh distributors manufacturers service providers who who provide uh training and other things around the show in the days before the days after the evenings during uh and trying to keep track of that can can be its own challenge in and of itself uh you know I just saw saw a notice today about one of our distributors who is who is doing training uh on on Monday and you know that kind of is is interesting because we also have sessions there but you know that's putting that aside there there is a lot of that that goes on and it changes uh changes from show to show there are some folks who show up there regularly and do it a lot of the distributors have some fantastic uh very technical training stuff to complement some of the higher level stuff that we do uh at the show some of it's for a fee some of it's free but I would just encourage folks to who are thinking of going to reach out to their the people they do business with be like hey have you got anything going on during during WISPAPALOOZA because there there really is a lot and uh and like I said it's it's it's before during and after uh and it's great to see the the show grow to the point where we have all of this ancillary stuff that's going on uh outside of it too again it's just an indication of how how this industry has grown and and gotten larger for sure for sure so yeah the and I've done several sessions and everything and it's just a wonderful opportunity to be able to gather you know a big part of your customer base which is typically spread very thin across the whole nation when they're in one city it's like hey everybody come here let's jump on top of this so um but that sort of leads in too so you know a lot of times when people are new and they're like well what's the real benefits and you know yeah you've got the training yeah you've got the sessions which are super important it comes to the exhibitors and stuff but if I think if I had to summarize the the one most important thing that people can gain from this shows honestly it's the networking side of things you know being able to meet people that are in your same position have lived your same pains and can I kind of understand where you're coming from and well it says commiserate and celebrate right so you know these set of problems that a lot of these folks are relatively unique and they probably don't really have a lot of they can share with in their peer group whether it be a side job or their family or church or something like that so um I think it's a really good opportunity to for people to meet and learn from each other and that's so important yeah I wholeheartedly agree and that's in addition to some of the other things that's the official programming that's some of the value that that we really see folks uh talk about over and over is just the ability to sit down with somebody and say like hey this is my problem and then it's like no way I solved that problem just a year ago here's how I did it uh that's one of the things that's really cool about this segment of the industry that I found is not necessarily the same across other telecom sectors is just the willingness uh to share information and knowledge and to just help each other out I mean you see that uh in times of net the natural disasters where you'll see WISPs in an area come and help help a fellow WISP rebuild their network that kind of that same ethos come comes across in in the events as well where people are so willing to share hey uh you want to learn how to do a little bit of fiber this is how I got into it this is what you need to buy uh this is don't do the drop this way do it this way uh and that's just one example but uh just the the networking the the knowledge gathering at the bar after the sessions are over uh is just a huge compliment to uh to what we see going on in the official side of of the show as well yeah I think that's something that's really kind of underrated and and not really thought about when people consider you know what do I get out of WISPA why should I join and for me that the social networking and putting a you know a face to a voice or an email that's one of the the greatest things uh about these shows that that I really enjoy and like you said you you actually create a kind of a brotherhood and sisterhood of WISPs and people who are willing to work and you know it wasn't too long ago that the the WISP industry was somewhat fragmented in that case and every WISPs or every other WISP as you know their competitor and blah blah and now I think the industry's starting to realize that you know we're much stronger together and uh you know again if we can kind of come in and and work together you know we really have let's say another you know enemy you know that that we really have to we have to to work together in order to you know bridge that divide and uh and really put up a united front and yeah you know the disaster recovery stuff the way WISPs just you know selflessly go in there and and donate their time uh their employees uh their equipment and all these other things to try and help out a WISP that you know might be in a whole other state never mind you know one county over or something like that is is quite amazing and I've you know I've never seen anything like that either and you certainly don't see that in the baker companies that are out there so yeah it's very unique and and something that's extremely valuable to I think anybody who's considering joining WISPA that alone is uh speaks you know mounds for you know what you get out of it yeah I and I agree I mean that's one of the messages that I always try to uh get across to folks in the industry who are saying well do you know to your point Tasos it's like well why should I join WISPA it's it's the community it's a whole host of other benefits I mean one of the big ones that folks like to use a lot is the discounts on the events but we're also standing up a lot of other stuff in terms of education outside of the events regulatory guidance documents technical reports on spectrum uh health insurance discount programs all sorts of things that you get access to but I think that at the heart it's it's the community right it's uh I hear sometimes from from WISPs who who are kind of on the outside looking in and say well you know I would really join with if if you did this and you know I understand that and it's always good feedback for me when we're trying to think of okay well what's the next big thing that that we can do as an organization to better support the the entirety of the industry but at the end of the day we're stronger together uh and if you end up joining that gives us more resources and and more know-how to be able to do the next big thing because I hear sometimes from folks who say well you know we we would like WISPA to do this but at the end of the day we all are WISPA WISPA is not just the WISPA staff it is every single member and every single employee at all of those members and all the things that they bring to the table and if we're able to leverage all of that collectively as as an industry all those resources and all of that know-how man uh what what we can accomplish and we're start and we're seeing that right like it's a lot of these volunteers who have a great idea and and and the willingness to get it done uh i think of like the folks who volunteer for our agenda committee kind of coming back to the shows it's it's a group of operators that come up with the sessions in in consultation with the WISPA staff but it really is the quality of the content at the shows is driven by WISPA members themselves so the more people we get in the stronger we are as a whole industry it's very well put you know you keep up explaining things like that someone might actually let you run the place for a bit so fingers crossed fingers crossed you're like oh no no just kidding so no that's great info so I think the last a couple things here um those that maybe went to the show in Dallas earlier this year the WISPAMERICA um and haven't been to the WISPAPALOOZA show in Vegas what would you summarize as being the major differences between those two shows sure so the WISPAMERICA 110 has historically tended to be a little bit more uh technical a little bit more focused on the nuts and bolts of of running a a network uh and WISPAPALOOZA has just a little bit more well-rounded content that that goes beyond just purely uh you know what what radios and antennas should you use what what's the difference between uh using POE and not using POE for to go back to our earlier conversation uh and WISPAPALOOZA it is just generally larger right so uh WISPAMERICA is about half the size in terms of attendees and exhibitors as WISPAPALOOZA so WISPAMERICA is a little bit more of a boutique feel it's a little bit smaller show maybe a little bit better opportunity to uh to spend a little bit more quality time with with a couple of your friends WISPAPALOOZA is just it's huge uh by by comparison it's about two to three times the size of WISPAMERICA uh so and we also have a couple of additional pieces of programming uh we have like a CEO round table for chief executives at all of the at all the ISPs that attend to talk about their problems what they're seeing coming down the pike uh as well as a like a CTO roundtable as well so there's like a couple different pieces of programming that we offer at WISPAPALOOZA just by virtue of having more space and more time uh but it's definitely the one the bigger of the two shows and and that means there's there's a lot more to see and do and as you also mentioned that where a lot of the manufacturers will tend to time some of their product launches uh to to also get that out there to to the bigger audience so those are a couple of the couple of differences between the two events yeah that's that's very well put you know the Vegas shows you know i think a little bit more fun from a socialization and networking perspective but that's always been sort of the side that we're on you know promoting our business and there's a lot of uh distractions in Vegas we'll just leave it at that so you know if just a few few flashing lights and things like that so um it is good for the if you're bringing a bigger group you know sometimes it's a lot easier to maybe get to brass but hey you know why don't you guys come out let's go out here as a group and then they can focus on having a good time you can focus on the business side or whatever that is so I always try to tell people if you can make it to both certainly do uh it is flexible with the spring show because it does move around the different locations whereas this one's always in the Vegas show it's always the Vegas show so we are in a new venue this year though so that's exciting we are for the for the small number of folks who were able to show up in in 2020 you got a little bit of a preview oh yeah Tasos was there um but it's it's at the Paris and Bally's this year so on the strip a new new premiere location uh which we're super excited about uh it's uh yeah it's it's gonna be it's gonna be fun uh we got a lot more space and uh the the digs are a little bit better than at the Rio so looking forward to that as well no comment in the comments so moving on next next subject let's go so now as always it seems like every Vegas trade show no matter whether this industry or the others that the hotel room is always about seven or eight thousand feet away from where the exhibit hall is so I don't know if that's the case this time or not you know it's it's actually a little bit closer uh the we we actually our events staff went and walked it out and it's closer than it was at the Rio so depending on whether that's a good or bad thing from your perspective if you're trying to get exercise sorry you might have to do a little bit of a workout on on the other time but if you're if you're trying to if you're going for ease of uh of getting to where you need to go this is this is where you need to be yeah I guess there'll be less people renting those little rascals and stuff that they you always see at the shows little motorized cars to drive around this year yep yep yes indeed it was always the or fun planning all right we're gonna go to dinner well I gotta go change shirts real quick I'll be right back and you're like well it's a 45 minute journey so oh good times good times so and then I think of course you know kind of to wrap this up uh the whole covid situation is obviously you know a big question in everyone's mind you know and we know it's an extremely dynamic scenario you know it's changing constantly but you know I think we're we're really lucky that we were able to have the show in person this year at all uh I'm really looking forward to that uh is there anything you want to speak to in terms of some of the precautions or just ease people's concerns they may have sure so yeah I mean it is absolutely something that we have spent a lot of extra cycles uh thinking through dealing with uh it is a little bit challenging because some the situation tends to change on a pretty regular basis so I mean we've put in place a pretty significant laundry list of precautions that we're taking from copious hand sanitizer to some uh some cleaning methods that we're asking the event staff to use to uh trying to give folks a little bit more space than they may have in the past and then on top of that we're following all of the all of the state local venue guidelines uh which will will hopefully set some folks at ease but uh we're we're committed to having an in-person event uh for all the reasons that that we we talked about right it's that I think we've all found out over the course of the past year and a half that nothing really beats in-person networking chatting uh sharing of of information and I think a lot of us have been at least some of the folks on the more extroverted side of things have felt a little bit left out there if you're just happy it's sitting at your computer pounding away all day long then maybe you've been doing really well but for folks like myself and uh for some of the folks on the sales staff and some of our our vendors I know it's been pretty hard um but at the end of the day we're committed to having a fun and and safe event uh we we're likely going to to see uh we're gonna send out a no before you go kind of email a little bit closer to just because so many of these requirements tend to be in flux to kind of give people an expectation of what to expect I mean currently the the gaming commission is requiring venues to have have masks for in-person event that's likely going to hold that could change uh but that's that's where we are right now um there's a lot of stuff that's still still in flux but uh we're committed to communicating as much as we know when we know it's uh and and trying to have a fantastically fun event but also a safe one and thankfully we've had experience doing this right so we had a small event in October of last year no known covert transmission through that one same thing for spring event there so whatever we've been doing so far seems to have have been working which gives us a lot of confidence going into this this event in the fall that we'll be able to pull off something that everybody can feel comfortable with uh but also can folks can have a lot of fun well that's great so I will say the based on how the crowd was feeling at WISPAMERICA like there was a lot of people that were very excited to be out I think there's going to be a lot more of that this year so I think the energy is going to be there and we've got some new folks that look like they're going to be coming out with us this time so we're like you know you might want to prepare like hydrate get some vitamins because it's people are excited so that's that's always a good thing definitely well that sort of fills out my little list of bullet points that you know main topics we wanted to hit uh Claude is there anything else that you want to cover or bring up or anything like that no this has been fantastic thank you all for both both for having me on and and chatting about the the events and what what WISPA does and uh I try to be as as accessible as possible for for all of our members so I share share my phone number and email address pretty regularly so if you have thoughts or want to reach out about just about anything give me a shout out all right man well we we really appreciate your time especially it's kind of gamble for you this is a relatively new setup for us so maybe not real sure what you're rocking into but uh we'll send you a copy of this before we post it so you can check it out and make sure that we just don't totally just botch everything so judging by the intro graphics I mean I think you all are clearly a very slick and professional operation here so well a production's great there's two yapping fools in the middle that we're still working on but uh we'll see all we can do about that so all right well appreciate it and uh have a good one Claude all right have a good one y'all thank you good seeing you thanks Claude bye bye all right well that was great conversation Claude is always you know good to talk to you really informed and um really you know lives for what WISPA is and what these shows are and everything else so it was great that we were able to talk to him so I'm pumped yeah yeah definitely definitely he's a really cool dude I mean uh you know maybe some people you know can't see that and they they you know briefly see him at WISPA and doing his thing and stuff like that and never really get to spend some time with him like we have ourselves recently uh and in past shows and stuff so it's really really cool I think for the uh user base out there and all the WISPs to kind of you know just get a feel for himself you know yeah and he really is approachable like he said you know during the conversation you know he'll throw throws contact info out there and you know we've always had great experience so so good times good times well yeah definitely let's look at wrapping this up you got anything you're looking forward to this weekend anything get you pumped up no no like I said you know just kind of this cool weather I'm just waiting I'm kind of like in limbo right now uh you know I really want this cooler weather to get here where we're at actually our peak which I really shouldn't complain because you know Texas is usually like a month and a half of a 100 plus degrees and stuff like that and we have like today tomorrow and uh the next day I think to like Monday we're in the hundreds again uh for a very brief period I think the cooldowns coming after that so so really I'm kind of in limbo I rather just like sit in the AC and wait for summer to be over and then start thinking about you know weekends outside and stuff like that very cool very cool yup so it'll be really nice here this weekend and you still have like a decent amount of sunlight which is really cool so like i said favorite time of year for sure so all right guys well it's time to go so if you would please download listen like and

DtopxV2BsR4 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtopxV2BsR4 | GOOD SUCCESS WITH APOSTLE JOSHUA SELMAN 13||04||2023 | foreign Ty things give him praise give him thanks let it be from the depth of your heart father we honor you we bless you you are king of kings you are Lord of lords we bless you thank you for your Mighty hand Upon Our Lives we acknowledge our goodness in our midst and Lord we thank you again and again and again [Applause] [Music] tonight we pray that you speak to us grant us understanding grant us illumination even by your spirit and we declare in the name of Jesus that has always Jesus is revealed in our midst and Jesus is glorified in Jesus name we pray God bless you please be seated it's good to be in Zaria Hallelujah praise the name of the Lord I'm happy I'm happy to be here turn to your neighbor left and right and tell them the Lord bless you the Lord increase you in Jesus name let me salute the leaders zarya lead us let's give them a big God bless you so the incredible job that they are committed to doing the mighty things that they keep doing every time I have the opportunity to get the reports I'm very humbled at what God is doing and I've told you that leadership is not about maintaining followers it's about transforming supposedly Ordinary People to become leaders Hallelujah we have several people in our midst and it's my joy and honor to acknowledge and welcome them where House of Honor we do not take for granted every time they show up um our father and our mother daddy and mommy Tula let's give them a big God bless you Hallelujah and then we are always honored to have him in amidst the CEO in charge of basawa Lieutenant Colonel Anthony thank you so much sir it's an honor thank you thank you so much and just stepping in is our father and our mother professor and Dr Mrs Ono let's give them a big God bless you Hallelujah I hope I didn't omit every anyone you are here and you're scattered across a congregation inside and outside we honor you may the Lord bless you in the name of Jesus Christ Hallelujah we had a glorious session with the leaders this morning and we discussed a few things and God helping us we trust that the truth we have learned will take us from glory to glory in Jesus name Joshua chapter 1 and verse 8 the Lord inspired a few things in my heart to share with us one of the things that I was telling the leaders in the morning during our training is the fact that one of the secrets of being a blessing to people is to bring teachings that are relevant to their needs teachings that are life applicable are we together it's important that the truth we communicate that they sustain the power to liberate people and were committed in this house towards the holistic development of everyone so that we are not just limited to your spiritual growth and development alone but that every aspect of your life has the glory of God reflected in it and tonight I'm inspired to teach on a subject I title good success please write it down and then pay attention good success good success for our text let's go to Joshua chapter 1 and verse 8. we can see it projected let's read together one to read this book of the law shall not depart from out of your mouth but thou shall meditate during day and night that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein for then shall thou make thy way prosperous and thou shall have good success so this is this is God admonishing Joshua who was now taking the Baton of leadership after the departure of Moses Joshua chapter 1 starts with a sermon God summons Joshua and says Moses my servant is dead and now he begins to guide him on the principles that would help him succeed and then the Bible says among them he tells him that the secret to good success is found in verse 8. that you shall not let the law of the Lord the book of the Lord depart from your mouth you shall meditate during day and night that you observe to do according to all that is written Dairy write this down please the first points that I want us to get very clearly and without confusion and those across the overflows please make sure you are writing and paying attention the first thing I want you to know is that the Bible is very clear as to the fact that it is God's desire that we live an excelling life please write it down it is God's desire that we live an excelling life it is not just God's desire that we serve him it is not just God's desire that we love him it is God's desire that the believer lives an excelling life is that oh Lord Our God how excellent is your name his name is not just powerful his name is not just Mighty his name excels even in glory so write this down John 10 10 Jesus was teaching and he said the thief cometh not but for to steal to kill and to destroy that is Satan's Ministry he said but I am calm that they may have life and to have it more abundantly other versions to say to have it to its fullest so you must convince yourself ladies and gentlemen that you are not just here just to love God and to serve God Alone these are priorities but that in our dealing with God God's desire is that whilst we serve him we have an opportunity to live excelling lives Hallelujah Proverbs chapter 4 and verse 18 the Bible there says but the path of the just is as a Shining Light that shine it more and more say more and more one more time say more and more by this scripture it means you should never have a better yesterday you should never look back and rejoice over your yesterday at the detriment of your today Hallelujah that no matter what it is the glory that is seen in your life today it should pale with respect to the glory that is to come may that be your testimony it is God's desire that we live an excelling life unfortunately many Believers are unable to capture this reality in their lives when you look at the life of the average believer it is not a good portrait of who God is what you will largely find in the life of the believer is passion for God and that is very important spiritual passion love for God love for the house of God but then you look around the life of many Believers you cannot see the manifestation of the glory of God the word Glory comes from the Hebrew word cupboard the Greek is doxa it means the weightiness whatever makes an object valuable or desirable is its Glory Hallelujah praise the name of the Lord that is very important whatever makes an object so the glory of this phone is found in its ability to either provide speed or high internet are we together now the glory of this mic is in its ability to amplify my voice so when we talk about the glory of God we mean all the characteristic features that make God God and the Bible says God desires that it is revealed through the Saints your life is glorious to the degree to which we see present in your life the factors that make God God his wisdom his power and all that makes God God are we following now so it's important to establish this I'm saying this particularly because many of us and most of us that come around this area we usually sadly but truthfully we do not have many models that give us a balanced picture of God's idea as to how the believer should be we know God's expectation today because there was a man called Abraham is that true and the Bible says in Isaiah 51 it says look unto Abraham your father and to Sarah that body it says for I called him alone and I blessed him so most of us come from families most of us come from cultures where the people we saw around us were either people who were very spiritual but they failed in every other aspect of their lives or maybe a few people out of a great family you may find one or two people who lift their head a bit at least within the context of that locality and then they reject God they resent anything God or you'll find people in between so it is difficult for many Believers to attend onto this balanced state of Excellence because we largely have not seen models that exemplify that it's like people choose certain aspects they either choose wealth at the detriment of their spiritual lives or the true spirituality at the detriment of every other aspect of their lives but the destiny of the believer is found in Genesis 24 and verse 1 it says and Abraham Genesis 24 and verse 1 was old and well-stricken in age the Bible says and the Lord had blessed Abraham in all things prophesy to yourself say all things that means eventually every aspect of your life should capture and reveal the glory of God are we following now I'm saying this because nothing will change in your life until you indoctrinate yourself to believe that regardless my current situation it is still the will of God for me to live an excelling life an excelling life is not a life of competition an excelling life is not a life of comparison an excelling life is not a life of saying I am better than you the Bible says and they comparing themselves with themselves are not wise so that is not what we are called into but that the Bible tells us that God wants to use us in fact he says this in excellently in Ephesians chapter 2 and verse 10 give us please Ephesians 2 understand it says for we are his workmanship his tools it says created in Christ Jesus unto good works which God had before ordained that we should walk in we are not just the Sheep of his pasture we are not just his children the Bible calls us his workmanship you know what that means that the tools that he uses like when you see a doctor his workmanship is a stethoscope and all that he uses to excel he's saying that we are his workmanship that means when the world wants to see how Mighty God is he uses the believer just like tools to display the dimensions of power and Glory that he has if you're with me say Amen it is a very difficult thing but you have to work your way through believing that I may be in one room listen ladies and gentlemen I may come from a family where I'm currently staying in a mod house I may be wearing a thorn cloth I may not have an opportunity to eat well but regardless the situation this one thing you must have at the back of your mind that my current situation can never Define my destiny are we together now that it is God's desire that I live an excelling life please say it after me it is God's desire that I live an excelling Life One More Time say it is God's desire that I live an excelling life you try to make this confession on your own and you will be surprised at the mental enemies that will rise to challenge our statement the moment you make that statement your pocket answers who are you talking about you make that statement that 11 people in your family with the highest person not amounting to anything will answer the room you are staying leaking with water the inabilities that surround you these are the things that keep you down and you feel stupid for making that confession but the Bible says let the redeemed of the Lord say so say so let the healed of the Lord say so let the Blessed of the Lord say so are we learning very important I needed to take some time to stress this point because many people do not know or they have not assimilated it spiritually that God's desire is that we live an excelling life many are trying to live a competitive life many are trying to live a life of comparison I am better than my brother I am better than my sister out of my family I am the only one who has risen that's not what you are called to do and you see when you bring these points to your spirit the devil will use all kinds of excuses you've come from a family where nobody has risen you've come from this and that and it may be true as far as your current context is concerned but let me tell you I'm saying it again whether you are inside whether you are outside whether you are young or old I don't care what the limitations are around your life the first thing I'm telling you in the name of Jesus Christ is that it is God's desire for you to live an excelling life now whether you actually live that excelling life or not is another discussion but that in the mind of God it is never his will for you to come and live walking around the earth a purposeless and a visionless life and then just die in shame and pain and reproach that cannot be the will of God are we together write this down our success in this Kingdom brings glory to God one of the reasons why we must succeed is that our success in this Kingdom brings glory to God write it down very simple statement but it is very profound our success brings glory to God John chapter 15 please give us verse 8 and then we jump to verse 16. John 15 and verse 8. let's read together in concert you can see it written ready one to read hearing is my father glorified that ye appear much fruit so shall he be my disciples the father is not glorified if you do not bear much fruit another word for much fruit is notable results for those of you I presume everybody should be following the teachings but I did a series of teaching commanding salvation over territories and I taught you in that teaching that your results are also preachers that is a sermon only your results can preach you were never designed to be the only preacher are we together now your results are also preachers there is a sermon only your results can preach and if you do not attain to a point where you produce notable Kingdom results you will rob your territory of a kind of evangelism the Bible says if you do not believe me because of who I am believe me for the work's sake that means the work is also preaching hearing is my father glorified when you bear much fruit it says so shall he be my disciples verse 16 says ye have not chosen me it says but I have chosen you and ordained you the word ordained means to commission to legitimize your operation I have ordained you that you should go and bring forth fruit and that your fruit should remain say Amen that means in God's design I repeat one more time for emphasis you should never have a better yesterday the believer should not sit down Reminiscing on yesterday And discussing on yesteryears the Bible says listen carefully that Jesus Christ the same yesterday the same today and forever that means if I look at your life the version of you last year the version of you beginning of this year should far exceed what you are now and I'm not just speaking in terms of physical things alone are we together now very important more believers do not know that becoming successful is Ministry becoming successful is Ministry write it down if I tell you list the various activities that translate to Ministry you will say preaching you are right you will say giving you are right evangelism you are right but most people do not know that Kingdom success is Ministry now please pay attention because I'm going to be giving you a balance when I talk about Kingdom success we are not talking about this mundane Godless Pursuit that alienates Jesus Christ out of the system make no mistakes about it that is not what I'm saying but it's important for you to know that your success is not just a goal achieved your success is Ministry and the same way you pay attention to the preaching of the world the same way you pay attention to every other dimension of ministry you must pay attention to Kingdom success are we together Galatians 1 24 it's an Anthem in this ministry simple but profound scripture let's read it together one to read and they glorified god in me one more time and they glorified God in Me they looked at my life and at the end of it they said God you are great may that be someone's testimony that's what it means to be a living epistle Apostle Paul said we are living Epistles you know what that means that if somebody did not read his Bible and left home without reading the Bible when he sees you you become a continuation of his devotion that your life opens up chapters in The Bible he could not read so he finds out that the Bible is everywhere around him the one in his room is just one of the many available there are many living Epistles that someone who knew you before if they know you now your your life and your results begin to shouted that God can lift any man from a dunk Hill to wherever is someone learning in Matthew chapter 25 we'll begin our reading from verse 14. we know it theologically to be the parable of the talents Matthew 25 so Jesus is teaching on the kingdom of heaven and he's giving a parable that the parable the Kingdom of Heaven is as a man traveling into a far country the Bible says he called his own servants and delivered to them good notice he didn't give them a message he gave them Goods 2015 now he says unto one he gave five talents unto another he gave to unto another he gave one to every man according to his several ability not according to his love for them according to their several abilities and straightway he took on his journey and when you read down for sake of time the Bible says the guy who had five went and traded it he made five more the guy who had two went and traded it and made two more but the guy who had won in Anger obviously jealousy pain did not do anything with his talent and the Bible says he went to bury it in the ground the mistake is that you only bury seeds not talents you don't bury talents you bury seeds when you bury Titans in the ground they don't grow it is seeds that grow and in Anger he went to buried and when the man came now the owner of the the the goods he demanded accountability from them the one with five what have you done he said while you were away I was busy working on this five I have five more and he said well done thou good and faithful servant he says you have been Faithful over a few things I will make the ruler over many things enter down into the joy of the Lord then the guy with two he said you gave me two and I didn't have time to compete with the guy who had five I was focused doing my best and out of the two you gave me I made two more same commendation it says thou has been Faithful over a few things I will make the ruler over many things enter down into the joy of the Lord now here is the lesson verse 24 the one who received one Talent did not know that if he had done something with one if he did the same thing the guy with five did if he did the same thing the guy with two did he would have had one more and he would have gotten the same commendation are we together now the guy with five got well done not because he had five but because he brought five more the guy with two he didn't say this guy worked more than you he would be unfair to expect from the guy you gave to so this gentleman would have done his best he would have gone to ask them and say what are you doing with your own let me at least do it my one and say well this is the one then after he produces the result he will now say about God what do you why did you give me one but he was angry Lord I knew thee that thou art a hard man can you imagine it's like an employee talking to his employer reaping where thou has not sown and Gathering where thou has not strawed you see the kind of bitterness and the things that were in that man you see why he got one that one was given an act of Mercy I was afraid and I went and hid the talent in the earth and lo here is your talent hear what Jesus says to him thou Wicked and slot for other versions will say unprofitable servant he says since you knew that I like reaping where I did not so why didn't you go and give it in the bank so that at least I will have interest even if it was that means even if the guy brought a little percent he would have commended him for at least doing something are we together and he rebuked him the Bible says take the talent from him and give it to the guy that attempt it then means when a Believer does not produce results it is possible that even your Bishop Rick your Bishop Rick it defines the circumference of your relevance because you see I told you that every believer is a living epistle there is a sermon that your life and your results should preach and if you rob people from hearing that sermon God loves you but he loves other people who should hear you too eventually he will replace you and it is my prayer that nobody be replaced in this life [Music] many great things God can speak concerning you but it does not guarantee that you will walk in them let me tell you ladies and gentlemen there are many people today destined for Glory destined for Grace some of them have seen it prophetically but as it is right now many people never end up living one ten ten of their prophetic destinies [Music] are we together now write this down when the Bible says Well Done Right just listen before you write when the Bible talks about good success it immediately suggests that there is bad success and let me talk a bit about bad success how do I know that the kind of success I'm pressing towards is good success or bad success I will tell you very simple bad success is any kind of result that you seek to achieve listen to me that you will have to give up your love for God are we together and the desire to be a blessing to attain it that means the condition for attending unto bad success is that your soul suffers in the process the condition for attaining unto bad success is that in your desire to press for it people are wounded people are hurt you do not become a blessing while you are doing so you negate Genesis chapter 12 from verse 2 and 3 it says in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed is someone learning now why am I teaching you this because we live in a world right now unfortunately especially Our Generation there is an obsession for Success there is an obsession to make it and the desperation continues to grow it looks like there is a stigma that comes upon your life if at a certain level certain results are not achieved financially and otherwise and so many people right now are under all kinds of pressure I must make it by any means I will do anything it does not matter what so there are people today joining all kinds of occultic groups all kinds of fraternities all kinds of gangs formally or informally because they desire to make it it looks like there is a way societies celebrates you when you make it so finally you are rich now this car is your own this house is your own we have all kinds of slangs that Define what we call success and unfortunately our generation is perpetually Under Pressure there are many people right now carrying self-inflicted burdens loads and luggages that did not come by God because of the pressure prove a point there is bad success that the more you press your spiritual life is dying I must make the money by all means I must marry by all means I must have the child by all means I must grow up go abroad by all means it does not matter what happens to my spiritual life your prayer life is dying it doesn't matter let me just make the money no at the end of it you will find out that what you left for what you have was not worth it did you hear what I'm saying because for many people we have this idea especially about money now I'm not downplaying all these things I'm teaching you on success already but many people have this idea that if you fail in every aspect of your life but you finally have some money either by a good job a good business at least let you have a house a car and something they just feel you are all right it is a deception of the devil are we together there is bad success unfortunately bad success seems to be more fashionable than good success because of the price and the protocol it takes to attain unto good stuff it looks too long the process looks too cumbersome I can cheat my way and manipulate my way into good success many of us probably there are some of you right now hearing me and listening to me God sent you here today because you are about to make careless and even foolish decisions because of this Obsession you have covenanted with yourself that this year 2023 especially that God has declared unto us prophetically that is our year of open doors I have told you even a prison has does so just because a door is open you need to find out where you are entering Hallelujah bad success our world is full of bad success people cheat people kill people join fraternities they will tell you go and bring your mother as a sacrifice and he said it doesn't matter she was going to die anyway the only thing is that I'm just hurrying the the time hmm you see the thing with Satan is you never know the price of what you're gaining for until you taste of it a bit so you begin to walk and enjoy go and ask people who have been part of cold groups and fraternities for the first few years it will look as if there is no demand then one day at the point where your failure can affect you and affect others the devil now comes and says just to let you know it was alone you have been collected I'm going to calculate the loan and the interest now you are a big man and everybody knows you are a big man how do I survive the shame so your firstborn not Abraham's kind of Isaac or this one you are killing your son thank you everything that would desire you leaving the Lord every kind of success that will desire you compromising on your relationship with the Lord to attain unto I am telling you this is deception you are only licking poison that was sugar coated with sugar it's only a matter of time it will be like a DOT to your heart is someone learning there are many many people today to take God to help them because they have dappled into all kinds of satanic things and that includes preachers there are some of you when you see what God is doing with our lives you admire it so much and someone will tell you look there's a way it's the way we do this there's a way Ministry is done there's a way they can wash your eyes there's a way you can prophesy there is a way you can get money for Ministry it looks very attractive and marketable after all I suffered you would say and let me tell you the truth don't say it can't happen to me just say God show me mercy because you see the devil is not a fool he will not come to you when you have options he will allow life to press you to a point many of you do not know what the human being can do under desperation by the time you see that your mother is dying somebody will now come to you and say I told you except you don't love your there's a place I can pay the transport for you and you say mama you you give too much for me it can't be that I'm a failure and I could not help my mother and you will get into things that you did not imagine Satan will not come to you when you are just a fresh graduate you are bubbling with every Revelation he will wait till after five years no job no job no nothing no husband no child no nothing and then you learn he will use your friend to speak and say never for you if this is your definition of Christianity I'd rather be a non-believer you will say it doesn't matter but you enter the room and start crying and say God this is unfair I believe that I did everything to be successful this is what is killing there are people who cannot come out today as Steam problems have affected so many people because many years ago you would see them and think they would be so successful They Carried the semblance of a champion but years after it looked like their lives have been reduced to almost nothing I announced to you set yourself free by this teaching tonight there is bad success when you say you are admiring people make sure you first Define the kind of success you are looking at are we together now because there is a kind of success where you now see someone a millionaire today traveling around the world but you check his spiritual life the fire that was there is no longer there the love for Jesus that was there is no longer there there are many people who go abroad and return back unbelievers people who were prayer warriors fasting Giants and you ask them they tell you forget all that thing with just poverty that makes Africa behave this way foreign [Music] Hallelujah [Music] so there is bad success and I'm giving you the indices to measure it number one that any kind of success Pursuit that will demand that your spiritual life dies as the condition for attaining it and then number two the kind of result that demands that you hot and wound other people you see let me tell you this once upon a time the Bible talks about David and David said oh that I would drink of the pool of Bethlehem and the Bible says he is mighty man these were men he had trained they said you've trained us so much is this what you want considered they went and tore down a troop and meet their Massacre people and went and fetched the water and say as you have demanded David said I cannot drink this again there are too many lives that went for this that is a man with Consciousness but there are people who do not care who dies who goes through pain which family goes through penury let me just make it even if it's my brother that dies let him die let me just make it and some of us there is a growing desperation because you will come into a circle of people who want to make it in Ministry want to make it in business want to make it in life and it does not matter what I must make it in Ministry I want results anyhow I want a name I want say I'm telling you that there is bad success because there are many people you admire today the clock is only ticking are we together they have compromised on their Christian life and they have the cause of many people out on their head there are business people today carrying the course of too many people there are families today carrying the course of too many people most of us this issue of generational causes and the rest it came because of times of wickedness that were done by forefathers except for the revelation of the finished work of Christ are now administering the blood with understanding some of us our grandfathers were harborless by the time they were slaughtering certain women they made pronouncements I made by but your children will pay that price and he says still die now you came up through that line and you find out that everything good to work for you that speaking Abel thought that yet speaking when the saints died their words don't die there are people some of our people that were part of the massacre missionaries some of you were part of the pain of many people the Bible says the course of the Lord is upon the house of the wicked I'm reminding you that there is bad success so that you don't start clamoring for everything we go on the internet today and there are many people marketing different models of success as a young lady there is what they teach you this is The Happening thing now if you are not doing it you are not in fashion as a gentleman there are things you must have where is your car where are your designers where are your snapshots around the world you are not making it and there's that pressure and many of you are already deviating from the path that leads to authentic Glory into the path of chasing Shadows whereas when you started with God the road you were following may look slow but that is the road that will take you there the road of prayer you didn't have money but there's no night that you will not pray for one hour or two hours later on someone told you what is there in prayer what is there in studying the word you will keep reading the Bible like a fool till you become a failure now you said this Bible thing I'm tired of it let me start using then thou shall make thy way prosperous and thou shall have good success as a preacher they told you there is a way to raise money you can bring in somebody to come and manipulate people and you will get money and after all that manipulation all that you got was 300 000 and God said is this what you replace me for for three hundred thousand when I can call Nations to come and stand with you you have reduced me and put me side by side with 300 000. all right so be it and you find out that that three thousand will be spent treating a mysterious sickness that the doctors would not be able to diagnose and yet someone else will be sitting down quietly serving the lord sincerely and saying Lord I know I got up drinking Gary but I trust you I will follow your path with dignity and honor and one day it will look like magic God will lift that person and you say I used to know this say bad success say good success good success is the kind that ultimately brings glory to God and then becomes a blessing and an inspiration to your generation let me repeat again that good success is the kind of pursuit that ultimately brings glory to God and then will allow your life and your results to be an a blessing and an inspiration to a generation that when someone is advising either their child when someone is advising someone somewhere he will say listen follow this model there is a path that has been a match for you may your name become a model for someone in the name of Jesus may your life become a model that every time someone wants to inspire their child or their staff you are the name that will readily come to mind there are names today we do not call our children even though they are in the Bible for instance Lucifer for instance Judas is carried are we together you will hardly find people carrying those names and if for any reason they give children the name they just wait patiently until they are adults they quickly go to the court and change it and say God forbid I'm not the one who will carry that kind of curse foreign ER High we shine your light so bright we'll sing in honor of you [Music] Lord we will raise your banner we will shine your lights all right we'll sing in order of you listen do you know many years ago in this same Zaria many years ago there were people who were doing Ministry now I'm just saying this to inspire you those days Ministry was almost like becoming a god there were people who were doing Ministry you would think in two years they were going to sweep the whole world they would compromise on anything just to make a name [Music] I remember a gentleman then he met me and said Apostle with the kind of well not they didn't call me Apostle then but with the kind of anointing you have he said you should you would be a bishop in other Ministries I just laughed and I appreciated him he said carry your bad success and live my life now let me tell you the truth I'm saying this not to be sarcastic I remember I mean it worked programs after programs things after things there used to be people with all kinds of things young people on campus but with protocol with this with all kinds of things I then hold my Bible hold my hand hand hold my this hold my that over nothing absolute nothing it was not their fault they were models they were following and unfortunately I say this with every sense of responsibility many of those people alongside their models are fading out completely because God is not a fool are we together one day I went to minister somewhere quite some years now too I went to minister somewhere and when I was done ministering I was invited to the pastor's office just to have some time before I would leave and the gentleman who ushered me I just looked at his face and it was very similar I said ah are you not so so and so and he said yes sir my heart dropped I wanted to say what happened this gentle man was then a vibrant look when they told you points the people who are going to take the world huh point the people who may even retired by him you would call these names and now you are asking what changed now I'm not saying this so that you laugh at people it is that it can happen to you if you don't listen are we together you see the unit of Destiny is time say time shout it again the unit of Destiny is time whatever you give your time to you are given a part of your life to and let me tell you the truth time does not go backward it only goes forward whether you waste it whether you spend it whether you invested time goes forward many of you can remember when you were 10 years 15 years 20. now look at you 30 40 and all of that every time I come to Zaria and I look at our wonderful children I am amazed some of these children were dedicated here you see that the same way our parents look at us and they say look at these children now they are the ones doing this that is the deceptive brevity of life so he says to work circumspectly as wise and not as unwise Redeeming the time it says for the days are evil some of you are wasting your time joking around not paying attention to God not knowing that it takes time to know God it takes time to build valuable relationships and they will come prepared or not the stage of your destiny will open up it is a terrible thing to rehearse on stage the stage is not for rehearsal it's for manifestation now that you are in the wilderness you must learn how to kill the peer you must learn how to kill the lion don't stand and rehearse the day you stand before Goliath Goliath is not a toy is someone learning bad success can you say your spiritual life has been as robust as it was can you say your prayer life fasting loving the Lord passion for the house of God Apostle I don't know when it went down because me I need to make money that's my own is my goal this year congratulations but if it is at the expense of your spiritual life I'm telling you you are already headed towards a dead end because a man can receive nothing please listen to me a man can receive nothing you see here if God does not help you in life it will keep looking like you will almost make it but that's how your years will pass [Music] foreign [Music] so before we clap for your results keep it on the table of Destiny and let us check what kind of success don't waste your time clapping for just any kind of success now you are not critical but to be intelligent spiritually you will find out that many of the uploads you are clapping is a waste of time you are only clapping for Shadows clapping for people who are burdened their spiritual lives and do not care I must just make it now we don't condemn we hope that the mercy of God comes but let me tell you the kind of success that would demand that you leave God and then to stop being a blessing to attain it is a bit by Satan from Satan to destroy you if you're understanding me so far Say Amen [Music] now for tonight let me give you two keys success is based on laws write that down please success is based on laws and principles laws and principles write it down success is based on laws and principles Job 38 and verse 33 job was speaking with the Lord and here's what the Lord asked job 38 33 it says Noah's thou the ordinances of Heaven let's read it from NIV if we can find it or any other modern translation so that you will understand it now let's read one to read do you know the laws of the heavens it says can you set up God's Dominion using them over the Earth thou set the Dominion thereof that means do you know why Heaven is a place of order and dexterity there are laws Satan is not there yet there are laws can you reproduce those laws to your life and to your environment because the assignment is let it be done in earth as it is in heaven are we together you want to see the glory of God there are patterns you must keep Leviticus chapter 9 and verse 6 write that scripture down and never forget it for the rest of your life and Moses said this is the thing which the Lord commanded that he should do he says and the glory of the Lord shall appear unto you the glory of the Lord does not just appear in the various aspects of Our Lives until there are patterns to keep you may have heard me Teach it but it best repeating that the glory of God listen carefully the glory of God comes as an attestation that his patterns have been followed the glory of the Lord comes upon a life as an attestation that his patterns have been followed when you compromise on Divine patterns there is no guarantee to see in the glory are we together I'm going to give you two Kingdom principles that control good success there are many but let's deal with two tonight and in the name of Jesus I'm praying for you that while you are listening allow the Holy Spirit to keep working on your mind don't look at your condition don't look at zarya he told Abraham I was sharing with the leaders this morning he said from where thou art lift up your eyes not from where you are going you can start lifting your eyes from where you are from that Village from that room from that low estate lift up your eyes two principles I have learned from scripture I have learned from the power of mentorship and by the privilege of God's grace now from experience that control good success number one is called the God first principle please write it the god Dash first principle this is the first principle I want to teach you tonight the God first principle [Music] the god fast principle please look up when you read Genesis chapter 1 and verse 1 this was a revelation that God gave me one time during study the spirit of God took me to that scripture and said read the first sentence just the first sentence and it reads in the beginning God read the first four words one to go one more time read like a believer [Music] one more time just leave whatever he created in the beginning God this is the formula that controls an unbeatable dimension of success that in the beginning of anything whoever you honor from the beginning defines the possibilities in that life or in that Destiny in the beginning God not in the beginning skill not in the beginning friends not in the beginning family in the beginning of your life the beginning of your study the beginning of your health the beginning of your destiny don't just say God is in my life what is his position God's position matters not just his presence because he can be there alongside a baggage of many other things I can come to your house and while I'm in your house there are six of us one can be outside the other can be in your living room and then another can be in your bedroom the inner chamber we are all in your house but the value you are placed on us is not the same there are many people God is around their lives but not at the epicenter of their lives the God first principle ladies and gentlemen you know sometimes I feel I almost feel frustrated when I begin to teach these things because there is such an urge to share testimonies to inspire you but unfortunately we live in a world right now that always looks at things upside down that when you share testimonies they are they are mistaken for Pride but let me just tell you this only a fool will tell you making God a priority does not lead to your elevation that would be a big mistake go and read your Bible and see men who make God their priority and for a while they acted and looked like fools except that at the end of their lives all that we see and we saw was the beauty and Glory of Heaven the God first principle demands that God becomes Alpha before he becomes Omega he cannot be Omega over what he did not become Alpha he is Alpha Omega if he did not begin it there is no guarantee that he's going to sponsor it are we learning second chronicles 26 second chronicles 26. let's read verse 3 down to five the Bible says 16 years old was Uzziah when he began to reign and he reigned 50 and two years in Jerusalem the Bible says his mother's name was also jackalia of Jerusalem verse 4. he says and he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord according to all that his father and Messiah did verse 25 let's read it together in concert ready one to read and he sought God in the days of Zechariah who had understanding in the visions of God and as long as he sought the Lord God made him to prosper who makes man prosper yes sir you got it right it's an answer you must never change for the rest of your life men Prosper because they are marvelously helped by God I will lift up my eyes to the heels he says from whence cometh my help is a question he says my help comment from the Lord the maker I like that definition he calls God the maker it is not only the heavens and the Earth he makes he can make man bring your destiny as battered and Scattered as it is hand it over to the maker that what your father could not do what your mother could not do are we together now what your tribal affiliation may not afford you you hand over that Destiny I know you can speak English very well I know you may not have the kind of pedigree that is welcoming but you hand over like the woman with the alabaster box handed over to the maker and watch what he does he is this king of glory the lord strong and mighty the Lord Mighty battle [Music] you are the king of glory the law strong and mighty the Lord Mighty matter [Music] a day will come you will travel to your home and pass road you used to know before except that the only thing that will accompanied is the tears from your eyes I remember this house you will say I remember this place and you will see how great thou art the faithfulness of God over your life let the mockers mock while you love him let those who laugh at you laugh while you mock him let other people say is God you are going to eat is God that will give you a husband they are not wrong you just continue where God will carry people that look like Nations and bring to your life listen this this is not a salmon or this is this is a charge by the spirit serving God peace you can any living loving Jesus [Music] the same way they say somebody is this what do you do and you say loving Jesus our world today will laugh at you and say shame on you what a foolish person preachers have indoctrinated you watch the person who spoke after 10 years the brothers of Jesus of Joseph taught his passion the dreams that he was having they were angry and they tried to throw him into the well but they did not know the kind of hand and influence that was backing him for some of you God sent you to zarya here I was teaching her precious people that coinonia Zaria is different from every other expression of Koinonia across the globe because this place is more than an Apostolic center it's a training ground this is this is it's like military the school of infantry this is where those who are World Changers are identified and made some of you are seated quietly yet that Prophet is still there seated quietly Apostle I come from a family somewhere in Plateau or Southern kaduna we do not even have there is don't worry allow the maker make you don't allow fools that don't know where they are going deceive you people who are not going anywhere they don't have any idea about their life you see the Fallen man is arrogant even at the height of ignorance are we together if you had seen many of us many decades before now we will not look like you today the foolishness of loving Jesus Lord my life may not be much but if you ever find Value in it here I present it as a trophy and God says it was mine all the way I gave you you have the power to use it without me now you hand it over to me he said but I know whom I have believed and I am persuaded that he is able to keep that listen which is committed to him he only keeps what is committed to him not what you hold and say bless hand it over it belongs to you Lord I have no idea about what my life should become if I'm to use the parameters of My Success right now I may not amount to much maybe my father is No More Alive maybe my mother is not alive maybe what I studied or I'm studying is not even something from our world today from a value standpoint it may not be something that guarantees anything hand it over God is speaking to someone tonight is a Handover service don't try to live your life and run it by your rules you are already messing it up carry what is left with humility and bring it to him and say this is how my father messed up his life when he was 25 he thought he was in control of things and 25 years the man who sat at Bethesda he was so close to the pool yet for 38 years he could not be healed you can be so close to Destiny helpers you can be so close to opportunities but there is no guarantee that God if God does not help you you will keep looking at greatness like this till you grow old you will never step into it it's terrible to see a thing you already have a picture but to hold it you will see that as close as you are until the hand of Elohim stretches for you you will never hold it you know how they beat horses they put straw in front of them or some grain ah and then they tie it they will never be able to to catch it so their movement is not because they want to move in their minds they hope that they are moving towards it that is the deception of trying to be great without God you will be close next week give me your CV I forgot I used to be your father's classmate and you start dancing finally it is done without God you are joking that man will become a director there and even after 10 years he will live and unbelievers whom he handed into a crusade ground and say I don't believe in Jesus but let me receive this prophecy we'll go and move forward and you'll find out that you remain there except the Lord tills a house they label in vain that build it I'm speaking to someone except the Lord watches over a city my Bible says the Watchman watched but in vain he says it is Fame to wake up early and to sleep late at night only to eat the bread of Sorrow only God can give his beloved sleep let me tell you something during covet we didn't have service here remember during kovid from February it was still December that a service was held I remember respectfully speaking a few loving sincere and very beautiful-hearted men of God who called me and said Apostle what you are doing is suicidal you don't do that in Ministry that from from February you don't have any service no point of contact with your people by the time you call a meeting again you will come and meet empty chairs I said I respect you and I respect whoever taught you but there is something I know about God you have no idea of my Covenant with God you have no idea of what he told me in the wilderness [Music] hey I'm under the shadow of your wings your influence is all over me I am under the shadow of your wings your influence is all over me [Music] that's the part of the song I love I am victorious I have overcome I am victorious I have overcome no matter your situation [Music] hear me whoever told you God cannot Prosper you this money thing that is making you leave the Lord you need to pipe pipe low with it and come back to God and say my Pursuit for money you may have done it sincerely Lord I return to you help me and show me mercy you are the only one who can Open the Eyes of a man to see an oasis in the desert if you do not Open the Eyes of men they will not see Apostle my own is that I need money for Ministry it is the god of Heaven who made the friends of job who left him to return back in job 42 and verse 10 he was dejected and left there as though he did not have God he lost everything in his life the only person humanly speaking who was with him was his wife and I'm sure she was tired she said will you not cause God and die I can't leave you because I'm your wife but help me by dying so that at least I can have a life with my remaining days and job said all the days of my appointed time he says I Will Wait waiting is the hardest thing for a Believer to do listen to my teaching when God is silent I've told you that the Silence of God is a language you need to know what God is saying when he's not speaking [Music] for someone when God is silent he means keep pressing you are making the right decision don't change your mind keep pressing keep praying keep serving you are serving in the house of God and they look at you they'll say you keep getting old no man will come and marry you the same way it happened to your mother and you will feel stupid [Music] oh you cannot do this you you keep doing that you will be poor forever and you sit down and feel stupid and you think of your innocent mother and your siblings and where do I start from the godfest principle for as long as he sought to the Lord the Bible says God made him to prosper in John chapter 15 let's read from verse 1 to 3 I like this he says I am the vine John 15 1 3 I am the True Vine in fact it says he says and my father is the husband Man follow carefully verse two every branch in me that bearth not fruit I take away and every branch that buried fruit he purged that it may bring forth fruit verse 3. it says now ye are clean through the world which I have spoken unto you let's even continue to read in verse 4. it says abide in me I like this it's called The Law of abiding abiding me don't just visit me abide in me and I in you as the branch cannot bear fruit of itself how many of you have seen a leaf with mango or orange on it just a leaf dangling in the air you will know that that is witchcraft trying to attack you because it does not happen that way is that true behind everyone you see fruits all around there is a tree connected to the root the root the vine the branches then the leaves on the fruit so Jesus is saying here that the same way a branch cannot bear fruit of itself except it abide in the vine it says no more can ye accept you abide in me never forget verse 5 for as long as you leave let's read together he says I am the vine ye are the branches he that abided in me and I in him the same bringeth forth much fruit the last verse for without me ye can do nothing for without me he can do nothing the God first principle in the beginning God father I'm about to start this business and even though I think I know what I'm doing but I come to you you are the wisdom of God Spirit of the Living God you were sent to help me except you help me there is no guarantee that I will prosper oh someone said you will give me a job Lord thank you because you use man but it comes through men not from men it comes from God so if God does not released anything any man who claims to want to give you anything is only causing trouble for you and God says because you have trusted me he says they that trust in the Lord shall be as Mount Zion that abided forever and is not shaken let me tell you the truth this ministry that you see there is nothing necessarily special in US our sufficiencies of God the one we have chosen to be heard over this ministry many of you come from homes where if you remember there was a placard that used to be in our homes Christ is the head of this home remember the Unseen guest at every meal the silent listener to every conversation there was a placard that used to Reign like that as children they're they're hungry there so that if you ever forget you will remember that the head of this home is not the father the head of this home is Christ that every home must be a triangle Christ being the upper part then the father and the mother if it is ever a straight line a straight line cannot spread itself around it is the presence of Christ and the more they rise towards Christ the more you see that shape beautifully represented Christ is the head of this home the Unseen guest at every meal the silent listener to every conversation it is my prayer ladies and gentlemen as you listen to me that you will make a determination with your life tonight that this mundane pursuit of trying to live my life without Christ hear me dear Peter you may have heard me say it there are times you can go to the Sea the sea is the correct place if you want to catch fish there are times you can have the net the net is the correct tool if you want to catch fish there are times you can have the skill and even the experience and yet strangely you will still not catch fish everything right education right connection right recommendations right and mysteriously your life will still remain like that that is where God comes the size of God cannot be filled with it cannot be replaced with anything forever as long as I live and as long as this ministry leaves head of this ministry remains Jesus Christ the wisdom behind everything that you see it was right here we started with the foolishness and the Simplicity of following him and look what he's doing now and this is only a step out of the cave compared to the things that he's doing for the Bible says the path of the just it has a Shining Light I'm saying this because someone seated here a few years from now you will return back to this place and stand on this Podium with tears in your eyes you say I remember I came in as that villager from somewhere and while people were laughing at me I heard a preach at that point you'll be songs of praise that will just fill your heart [Music] I usually use this story to share with Abuja family that many years ago when when I'll be traveling to Abuja when I got to the park that would stop me somewhere and then when I come out of the car there was one small restaurant connected to a filling station there now it's destroyed that was the restaurant that was like my joint where I'll go to eat because the food was delicious and it was cheap I was not ready to go and embarrass myself anywhere and it was messy that made me find that place I don't know what kind of Grace made that woman to sell such delicious meal at such a cheap price and I remember I would eat and then just get up stretch myself and then begin my activities so one time I think it was last year where graduating our school of ministry students and I needed to have a quick snapshot with them and so they were passing me there and when I passed I looked at that place now it was demolished but I still remember the bank that was in front I sat down and I nodded my head I said this God this God I will worship him forever because [Music] as I was passing today after a Leader's meeting I passed and I remember one place where we used to buy corn I used to tease the woman and call her little daughter my wife and I'm sure maybe who knows maybe the girl is even married now are we together happily the woman would sit down I had various joints for corn various you know Jesus had corn so if you love Jesus you can test it with your passion for corn Hallelujah and I smiled if I had seen her there I would have probably stopped and said look give me corn don't shout any just pass me the gun and let me be on my way don't run away from your today you will miss what you are rushing listen to what I'm telling you don't be in a hurry don't hate your today so much you want to run out of it move with Galaxy because what looks like a a symbol of Shame today will become your scarf honor when we get to heaven it's not crowns that we use to know who Jesus is because even the elders have crowns all you need to do is to tell everybody to lift their hands the one who has the scar is the Christ he's the only one who has that kind of scar so what you are ashamed of today will become your batch of Honor tomorrow are we together now don't rush life there is no point living a fake life trying to make it look like I have arrived no the word of God has already secured you move with honor and Galaxy and you will step in there someone said the God first principle let me give you the second one and then we'll pray are you learning now and thou shall make your ways prosperous and thou shalt have good success the second principle is called the law of mental transformation please write it down there are many of these laws but I'll just give us two for this night and then we'll pray the second law that is responsible for an excelling life is the law of mental transformation goodness I wish I had time to deal with this subject it never tells me teaching on it because of the power and the Excellency of this topic mental transformation please look up your mind is a miracle that God gave you that is connected to your success and connected to your destiny again to balance it up there are many Believers that are not open towards mental transformation haven't exalted the issue of spirituality most people are bankrupt mentally and when I talk about mental transformation it is just is beyond secular Enlightenment you can be knowledgeable in a field but not knowledgeable holistically as touching the laws of life there are many intelligent people who are learned but when it comes to understanding the cosmos they do not have that understanding are we together mental transformation in [Music] second Corinthians chapter 10 I believe from verse 4 please give it to us II Corinthians chapter 10. here's what it says for the weapons of our Warfare he says are not carnal But Mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds then it says casting down imaginations and every I think that exalts itself above the knowledge of God and bringing into captivity every thought to The Obedience of Christ when it has to do with your success and your destiny the following truths stand right please the quality of a man's life is tied to his mindset the quality of a man's life the quality of a man's life is tied to his mindset mindsets Define our limits and our possibilities in life I wrote here mindsets Define our limits and they Define our possibilities in life this is very true and this is very powerful the Bible says to guard your heart interchange for mind with all diligence it says for out of it from out of it proceeds the issues of life [Music] the quality of your life and my life depends on your mindset listen I don't want to start boring you with all the discussions we've done quite some extensive discussions as touching mindsets here but then it's important to just maybe by way of a recap remind you that a mindset is a sustained thinking pattern if you're writing you may want to write please that a mindset is a sustained thinking pattern a sustained thinking pattern a mindset is an ideology a mindset is a viewpoint like we used to do in Fine Arts they thought something called perspective now if someone were outside and you were asked to draw this entire not just the auditorium but just draw this whole perspective those at overflow 3 may not be captured in his representation because of the limitation of his view this is what mindset is mindset is the lens and the Vista from which you view life this is very important your mindset is the lens it is the Vista from which you view life your perceptions Hallelujah and I did teach you when we did discussions on mindset that a stronghold is a faulty mindset that has been fortified by the presence of demon spirits to keep the victim thinking that way let me repeat myself for emphasis that a stronghold is a faulty thinking pattern that has been fortified by the presence of demon Spirit to keep the victim thinking that way Hallelujah are we together [Music] according to the Bible and of course the intelligence of veterans who have studied subjects relating to this they teach us that they are essentially about five ways that mindsets are formed let me run it through just for the sake of those who would be encountering this knowledge for the first time number one the first way mindsets are formed are through our cultural experiences you may want to write that as fast as you can our cultural experiences in social studies we Define culture as the way of life of a people are we together now so chances are excellent that if you if you agree up sociologically speaking seeing people behave in a certain way seeing people respond to life in a certain way that becomes the natural way that you respond to life Hallelujah culture cultural influences I will always observe that there are positive sides to culture sites that emphasize morality Excellence respect empathy and all these kinds of things but there are also negative satanic aspects of culture that if you do not edit out of your life they will stop you from attaining a glorious Destiny are we together now one of the reasons why Zechariah became dumb was because he wanted to fight a new order that God was bringing when he gave him a word and that it was going to be John he shot his mouth so that he will not use his mouth which is a reflection of his mindset to destroy something precious that God was doing compromising on John's Destiny would eventually affect the arrival of Jesus are we together so he shut his mouth until he agreed in writing that even though no one had been called that name through the family line that this was truly what God was doing and his mouth opened culture is very important but there are many people today who are failures thanks to culture are we together there are many aspects of culture especially within our African context that endorses mediocrity and doses all kinds of things we find Solace there is a a very a very strong consolation that a lot of people receive especially and respectfully so we who have come from the Middle Belt because of the Evangelical context right our emphasis has always been on evangelism Soul winning and then our eventual transition to heaven and that is true and profitable except that the gospel when it came from those who it came from thanks to them they did not communicate the whole Council of God and so aspects that make for an excelling life responsibility and other dimensions were not captured so many people were well intentioned loving God but became irresponsible for others irrespondence to society are we together and then you go to other regions and the emphasis is on success and making it regardless your stand with God culture if not managed can be the foundation of a man's destruction number two very quickly our past experiences our past experiences are very important they can mold our mindsets there are some of us who have failed so many times that subjects that talk about favor is far from your life because in your mind it is wrong to ever attain anything early and let me tell you this is still a spirit that we have to trust God to take away from Africa by the time you see a young man in his twenties suddenly excelling even with the Dignity of Kingdom Integrity people begin to frown and say No it should not be that way you in other words you are too young to be attained kind of result are we together you go to Nations like China and you see little children with witty inventions I mean taking over the world redefining civilizations because their culture does not seem to put anything on age your creativity and your value is what gives you access doesn't matter whether you're a baby and of course there are other negative aspects that there is a Heritage we have in Africa and around respect and the rest like I said earlier on that must be preserved but with respect to success the average person in Africa Nigeria who wants to rise your first assignment is to break through the limiting beliefs and sometimes you may not even have the energy to continue if you do survive Hallelujah our past experiences number three our family backgrounds our family backgrounds the kind of family that you come from can affect your overall perception about God respectfully speaking if you come from a family where your father was not attentive to spiritual things you never saw your family observing devotions they were careless and less as Fair as far as the things of God is concerned is the same thing you reproduce as a father except God shows you Mercy are we together now yes listen every National problem was first a regional problem that was not solved every every problem was first a community problem that was not solved and every Community problem was a family problem that was not solved the unit of all troubles is family the unit of all Excellence is still family are we together there are people today no matter how perverted they become there was a healthy Godly Foundation there is a way they cannot deviate Beyond a certain point the foundation of godliness is too strong their conscience will not allow them go that far are we together [Music] if you come from a family where you are the first serious Christian out of 17 people chances are excellent that if God does not help you by bringing other godly people to stand you may not last because even in your back's leading State you'll still be better than everybody who is there family background can I give us two more your Association is a very very serious molder of your mindset your Association there are many of us who are good and responsible people until certain relationships were introduced in your life and listen when it has to do with the influence of Association there is no age limit there are people who did well in their lives respectfully speaking even down to adulthood but just when they were about culminating their lives the devil introduced satanic demonic relationships into their lives that just destroy them our world is full of such people are we together now yes or the woman was doing well loving the Lord except that she now traveled abroad or traveled somewhere and met a group of atheists and now you do not even know whether she's on fire again that's why the Bible says blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the ungodly nor stands in the way of Sinners nor sit in the seat of the scornful the Bible says what his Delight is in the law of the Lord and that on that law thought he meditate day and night that he will be like a tree that is planted by the streams of water which yields its fruit in season and the Bible says whose live does not wither but whatsoever he doeth prospers there you find Prosperity again are we together you must be able to edit your Association there's no such thing like we're born from the same Village if the if if your Association and your friends do not hold your values it's time to respectfully summon the courage to start editing people love is a command Association is not are we together when it was time for God to use Abraham mightily he told him come out of your father's house out of every tribe Kindred do you know why because sometimes your own people love you too much to allow you be great they know the risk that you are taken by being great and they can love you too much to allow your eyes now watch this when it has to do with the Mind ladies and Gentlemen please hear me I have taught it several times Well when zarya here that I don't care what changes in your physical environment if your mindset does not change if you try to change anything from the exterior please look up you are only wasting your time are we together imagine with me a person who stands in front of a mirror your dressing mirror now and if you see a thread on your head do you put your hand in the mirror to remove it what do you do you remove it here and the guy in the mirror also does the same thing it will be foolish to try to put your hand through the mirror to remove the thread so if you find something wrong your physical environment will always be a messless reflection of your mindset and your ideologies Apostle I don't know why I don't nobody seems to like me everybody runs away from me when the problem is everybody the problem is you everybody cannot be wrong and everybody cannot be a devil everybody cannot be a fool the problem is you psychologists teach us that you attract to your life the physical equivalent of your most dominant thoughts the resultant effect of your mindset is what you will attract the physical environment why am I attracting Wicked and devilish and negative people it may be that there is a mental construct you have of sarcasm of laughing at people rejoicing over the pain of others and there is an energy let me tell you the truth there is an energy that your mindset releases that can attract all kinds of negative people to your life the Bible says he that one's friends must show himself friendly is that true it says a merry heart do it good like medicine but it's a companion of fools shall be destroyed I told you again about Association that if there are five wise people in your life you did not count well there are actually six if there are five foolish people in your life you also did not count well there are actually six because you will always be a reflection of your Association are we together now here is the tragedy in our world we're about to pray the tragedy in our world is that we are obsessed with trying to change the physical things around us so let me wear a nice clock wear a nice shoe probably drive a nice car are we together and have a physical expression of success whereas my mind is still the old me can I tell you no matter what you try to change physically this is one of the iron Cloud rules when it has to do with good success you can move from one room into a great house if your mindset is still in one room that house will bring you back I assure you it is a law nothing in your life changes until you change friends can change your result will still be the same geography can change your result will still be the same have you seen people who traveled abroad and spend decades there only to return back still looking like their past because your exterior is not what changes you are we together so the Bible says it this way he said let this mind be in you Philippians chapter 2 and verse 5 which was also in Christ Jesus Jesus did not just Excel for nothing there was a mental construct there was a thinking are we together now gentlemen two of you please come very quickly let me use you now watch this very carefully I like to teach graphically just stand here facing me I'm glad one is wearing white just can't turn around facing me now watch this I want you to tell me which of these two you will most likely help Okay so this gentleman you're a respectful person when you see me you will bow and greet and act very wisely thank God you are bigger than him this guy is helping me act my drama very well are we together when you see me just push me and pass me and two of you are looking for help are we together by push don't worry it's not any there's there's no cause that is coming I didn't say push me and follow me just uh okay just move like you didn't see me before you push me down now are we together now watch this these are two Gentlemen let's even assume they were born on the same day in fact call them twins this guy for whatever reason either because of his submission to a man of God who has cultured his understanding and his mindset are we together and this guy let's assume he went to one school somewhere and then eventually this is what he has become now are we together now these these guys are looking for favor they are trusting God for breakthrough in fact call both of them Christians let's assume they are saved now this guy comes to me come please and you see from his mindset he has learned the value of respect he's learned the value of Honor this guy may not even know much but just for practicing honor he sees an elderly person he's greeting the person you don't just walk and say what is there is he feeding me is he my father you have been taught that life works on the principle of see time and harvest so the person does not have to be your biological father you may push the man because Baba is old and he looks at you and says May your children do the same for you you will say it does not matter until your firstborn shows you and then your second born adds to it then your third born adds to it and then the Lord will remind you one day that as long as the Earth remains see time and harvest now you will wonder why this guy seems to be well cultured the fact that he already has as a mindset the law of sea time and harvest makes him know that laws are vicious Warriors lost fight more than men are we together [Music] so he comes to me how are you fine and he's greeting me and you see because of that from his mindset he's acting out his mindset I will most likely be endeared to him or what are you doing now um well so I'm trusting God for a job somewhere oh really you don't have a job where is your dad now oh sadly he's passed on now you see it is easy for the Holy Spirit to drive me to help this man because already his mental preparation is already supporting what he wants I will most likely tell him okay come and see me tomorrow now our man come and pass me I used to be friends with his father and now he has passed me like this in this example you can see he's now moving and he does not care then let's imagine that where he's going to I'm the CEO now you open the door and see me seated and I stand up and say my friend are you not the one who passed me there yes and he's doing all these funny things we do in our generation Pride for nothing so what are you looking for a job I'll say it's all right you'll hear from us you can go and now we'll end up saying no the devil and this guy will go home and he's praying and saying Lord why is it that all my friends run away from me am I that bad no this is what is wrong listen another example stand facing me let's assume that this guy I will use one more example eh and then I'll give you a big hug don't worry you're a nice person watch this let's assume that this guy say he's an armed robber unless is you are not the one I'm talking about let's assume this one is a pastor are we together watch this so this guy Carries a Gun watch this please and he's jumping from house to house killing people destroying all kinds of things sometimes killing somebody just for 50 000 because in his mind fifty thousand is greater than that life that has died are we together now watch this whereas this one is a pastor loving people healing the Brokenhearted if two of them drop dead here you see you don't call this a pastor dead body you don't call this an arm robber dead body you call both of them dead bodies so who was really the pastor the mindset not the body who was really the Armed robber the mindset not the dead body now let's assume this our man now comes for coinonia and suddenly the fire of God falls upon him and after two years now he becomes a pastor too are we together now you see the same person who would have beats the living daylight out of you now he loves you respectful he's greeting you what change not his body what changed you spend six years in school as a doctor did they change your body what did they change [Music] listen listen if you touch your pocket and it's empty don't blame your pocket don't even blame your hand they are all report cards they are telling you something is wrong with your mind are we together now now I can take let me use money for example because people seem to understand this is one thousand naira watch this if I give this gentleman one thousand naira and his mindset has not been trained to receive this his mindset will compel him to act in ways that must make this money leave him have you seen people like that it's a ways to give them anything physical the mindset there are people who may not even have money but you give him hundred thousand you know what he will do he will get your car to kaduna and go to a boutique and buy a suit the hundred thousand is what he has woman abroad he will buy a suit 90 000 and snap with it and that's it and while he enters the boss coming back they will steal it [Applause] [Music] listen listen are we together for somebody who may just start working and God just opens a door the uncle says well let me just give you one million and the guy says I've suffered he may go and collect a loan of five million and buy a cow 4.5 and then while he's driving the first person the car will hit is the Convoy of a governor they will now say come out and sit on the ground first before you will sell this car and fix this one our last Master for it was borrowed why was he the only one who borrowed it he was not the only one cutting the tree what did the rest use mindset some of you right now you are wearing your future now because your mindset has taught you that except you look like that and unfortunately respectfully so there are many kinds of books and programs that keep culturing people you know can fake it till you make it or these things are not in the Bible you will destroy your life there are people with what God is doing in your life right now if you had a healthy mindset the blessing of God Is Enough at this level for you Mama may not have much but she's sending 50 000 you may not have a very may not be a good job but at least 50 60 000 is coming every week what is that one if you cannot manage fifty thousand you cannot manage five hundred thousand you cannot manage 5 million you cannot manage 50 million God loves you too much to give you that kind of blessing when you have not you say he that is faithful in little are we together now someone else will be living off ten thousand but you look at that person and you would think the person is physically a multi-millionaire because of priorities decorum you will never come to that person's house and lack a good food you will not see the person roaming around restaurants with ten thousand they will go on honorably by Gary buy rice and learn how to cook the day you have money you can you can do you know I used to cook before [Laughter] I can't even remember you put me with a pot now I will pray and cut everything you have to first promise that you must eat whatever at the end of the meal Hallelujah so watch this this guy has a disposition that is very friendly every time people come to you how are you when people have a problem you are very attentive to them listen oh are you okay are you fine and you'll find out that everybody wants to come around him why because there is a mental disposition that is very friendly are we together but someone else will come with a very pungent mindset the lifespan of friendship in your life is two weeks you must say something that will backfire eventually the friend comes and after laughing once they close the door you will laugh I said look at this message is as if it's 30 naira and you you you act like that and God is watching and men who are watching now the day a gentleman wants to marry you and he comes to seek Council and he says that there's somebody I'm looking at the friend will say who say no God and me we love you too much your your destiny is colorful and is bright you will never never I will not allow this kind of thing and you are wondering why are doors closed for me is someone learning now this is where it is some of you are angry the moment you get angry the only person who will calm you down is the Holy Spirit you can literally carry bottle and hurt another person we are all like that in our family you either change or you will suffer the bitter pill of violating Kingdom laws is someone learning there is nobody who is like that the presence of the Holy Spirit In Our Lives should change us there are some of you who are very sarcastic if someone looks at you and say you are looking beautiful you say I know you you are always insulting if you don't feel good about yourself the key is to listen to teachings that build you but someone may be well intentioned maybe a very sincere gesture but you are interpreting it from the lens do you know there are people who come to church and you saw you see somebody looking your direction and smiling you know what the person is thinking about how will I pay my rent and you say the person is laughing at you the person has enough problem he's just he just so happens you know you can be looking here but you are not here so this is how the landlord will throw me out and you now sit and say you see how they are looking at me let me tell you the truth people love you but they love themselves too don't make a mistake of flattering yourself that everybody is dedicating their time to just insult you people have enough trouble in their own lives are we together there are some of you you can go with five friends you will buy donuts for 300 naira your friends are watching you you will eat everything there and squeeze the leather and throw it in their presence and act like you didn't do anything you know that message Apostle preached her and they are watching you and then you find out you will never have friends again in your life is someone learning saying the name of Jesus please shout it say in the name of Jesus I receive Grace to contend for mental transformation [Music] listen every person you see today that looks admirable I submit to you they did not come like that by default in Adam all of us came by the Fallen nature it's just that other people sat down and started making an intentional work on their lives are we together mindsets I saw several mindsets In Me growing up and living in Ministry and I said no no no I have to work on this mindset some of them are cultural some of them came from all kinds of backgrounds it's your assignment to walk with the word of God I always recall a very interesting story years ago we went to higher instruments for a crusade and when we went to higher instruments it now led us to go to a church one Pentecostal church and the man was preaching about the wealth of Solomon you know coming from our Orthodox background so what is this guy saying like this you mean in a whole service you are just jumping and saying you'll be another Solomon well we're begging for sound so we have to behave ourselves we Shadow after the grace we now walked up to the man and said we are young people we have a crusade and we're begging for sound this man lambasted us and use any kind of evil word you can think about I was just watching that guy wait a few minutes ago was preaching about Solomon's wealth and this man now is now insulting innocent children with the holy God will you hold anything we came sincerely with our envelope with a letter to beg for sound you would have just said go away if I meet that man today I will love him I'll say may God bless you and how are you doing now if that guy did not change I didn't need to prophesy about his life I can tell you what the result will be that person could be you are driving everybody in your life today because of the little privilege you have a day will come everybody who are driving you see as you are praying in tongues they are praying too even with the tantras that they are praying to even with the 200 naira shoe they are praying to don't downplay what the spirit of God can do in the life of a man are we together now your assignment ladies and gentlemen is to focus on investing on your mind one day go better is a sociological wife saying it does not carry any power time does not change anything time only reveals are you learning as a preacher as an individual there are many mindsets that you need to have one of them the cheapest let me give you two can I give you two mindsets to inculcate this night number one the mindset of Honor number two the mindset of gratitude write this down with these two mindsets alone I I guarantee you by the Integrity of scripture you will be more Superior than many people the mindset of honor and the mindset of gratitude you can use these two mindsets to recreate your world I don't care what you currently meet with us write it down number one the mindset of Honor get my teaching the law of Honor honor is the Discerning honor is the celebrating and honor is the rewarding of individuals for their distinctive difference and the value that they bring when I came up here I took out time to honor our parents living their schedules and coming here to honor Cornell this is the CEO of of the whole of basava to honor all of these people now you come and touch me is both God and them that will deal with you God is doing his own from Heaven you know how the flood of Noah Heaven gave his Reign The Edge to others or whoever was in the middle are we together now oh no many of you God has allowed great people to pass by you but simply because you do not have a mindset of Honor you take people for granted you will go to the office of a man that you should never have gotten there except by the privilege of a relationship and as soon as you get there you will just sit down what do you want what do you have you call it confidence and they are watching you CCTV is speaking you and as you are living they said let this guy never come around this Secretariat again a person why is it that when good things are about to happen they go away demons only take advantage of the mindset that is there and they build a stronghold around it so you keep traveling from place to place and recycling the same mistake please listen um this is a Deliverance service God is showing someone the reason why doors never seem to open are we together try this look for the top five people who have contributed immensely in your life send them a text message and say thank you start with your parents Mommy just to say thank you of course you don't know my mother after insulting me and calling me a witch don't worry she was just angry are you really a witch who gave birth to the witch then don't worry your mother is not a witch you are not a witch does that is the purpose of maturity you should know that they were just mismanaging the anger but you send a text somebody helped you to pay your maybe school fees or something don't just send texts when you are now looking for help Calvary greetings and then two minutes later another text is coming sir just to let you know you know that the way this my life is I'm the firstborn that's not the issue are we together Say Amen practice honor and practice gratitude and watch just with these two mindsets watch what happens to you honor to God honor to Men I'm giving it to you as an assignment this night send a text to somebody and don't send this kind of text message that looks like an insult I was told to send you a text by Apostle thanks is that gratitude is that honor some of you are like that you can send 30 text messages begging and then the person now gives you money and after three hours you just say thanks you don't even spell it well thanks does that sound like gratitude you see the principle of the intention of gratitude is to make the giver perceive that you are grateful it is your assignment to use every means Godly means within your power let me tell you the truth you twice if you give thanks for the first one are we together there are people who can be so they they can be so grateful you feeling better to them even when you forget them God will remind you Hallelujah one day I shared something for some little children and after that God I was busy doing something and then one of them one tiny girl just ran and came and I just saw somebody hug me from behind and I just thought I said who is this and she asked me to bring my ears down she said she was telling me thank you again ah I wanted to see her parents first who would have trained this kind of girl eventually I told them to get the parents and I said whatever it would take for this girl to rise to be great me I'll handle it now watch this I'm not trying to brag I'm trying to tell you that a child just said dude a season it doesn't matter whether the parents are interested in being prosperous or not the child has bailed herself out are you seeing that now how many people have passed your life who you can Edge the memory of your honor to them and compel them to attend to your destiny mindsets is someone learning how many times do you go to the Lord and say thank you father thank you you are the line of the tribe of Judah you are frowned in the root of David and as if you are just entering his gate with Thanksgiving and now that you are inside the gate God come out to I'm in your Gates now I've been warning you this and that and that whereas there's somebody in the hospital stage two cancer and the person says Thank You Lord that I'm even alive I'm not asking you for anything I'm alive and God says you do not know the value of life and health you are here harassing me and saying you are eating only rice every day you need something more whereas someone is about dying and saying Lord thank you that you are keeping me alive someone say thank you Jesus one more time say thank you Jesus honor and gratitude I thought I think he was in Abuja and let me teach you if you've not gotten it if you are in any kind of relationship and you don't have value your contribution should be gratitude write it down I teach you a powerful secret if there is any kind of relationship you are part of if you do not have what to offer in terms of value let your offering be gratitude Perpetual gratitude and you have made an eternal contribution to that relationship Hallelujah thank you thank you Daddy I just want to say thank you thank you for my school fees thank you for everything what for I stopped paying your school fees 15 years ago I just took out time to reflect on your kindness they may just laugh somebody who is your employer I just came to say thank you sir whereas other people are insulting him this man is a wizard his wife is a witch Wicked man he's the only one eating the money while we are walking but he's the boss and it is his company and someone just walks up to say sir I just held this little bottle of wine may not be much but just to sincerely appreciate you in my time here I have learned and I'm committed to Improvement usually they will act like you did not enter them you just go when they are looking for those to promote you will see the man fighting as if they charm him to retain you and to see that you rise God loves everybody but he does not trust everybody Zaria please hear me it is not the lack of money it is not the economic situation it is something about your mindset I have taught you that any door that opened before and now is closed it is Dishonored that has closed it never trivialize people's value are we together now when you see elderly people respect them and greet them and honor them when you see great people don't pretend greatness don't push them away and say after all they are just lucky that is the mindset of a defeated person already are we together as I am today there are people that are eternally worthy of my respect and my my honor I will never see them and not honor them when I came in here and I saw her father I got up and we were laughing and I was greeting him Apostle would not turn into a stupid person I want to live long I want to live far and life is a product of seed time and harvest are we together there are some of you after the grace they say turn to somebody and just say hello for where I'm on my way going home and you find out that you are going home alone everything you are doing it alone nobody cares about you whether you are present or absent you see if your presence if your absence is not missed it means that your presence is not adding anything whether you come for coin only or not nobody knows doesn't matter and you've been coming for they will say how many years have you me I'm six years old in Koinonia and nobody knows you are you in any Department I don't join departments where I just come and receive and I'm on my way going are you learning when I learned this Principle as simple as it sounds it has open listen second only to the law of encounter this is the most powerful spiritual law that I've learned the law of Honor has come set of this I have indoctrinated myself to show honor and to communicate gratitude these two things have opened me up to a world of possibilities beyond my wildest imagination somebody said thank you for 50 naira and that thank you today has given him a house somebody said thank you for a shoe and that has given him all kinds of things you must learn to be grateful be lavish in communicating gratitude to men and to God and watch what begins to happen in your life you become Beulah and have super don't just meet people and the first thing you are looking for needs give me let me give you a secret as we wrap up anytime you see great people minimize asking for things every man's need is his point of contact I was teaching the leaders this morning and if people do not need your money they need your your reassurance your courtesy so I just want to thank you so much do you know you would think that I haven't taught this thing for many years I will be immune to it myself I'm not talking of flattery there are people who see me and are possible I'm so grateful usually when I'm passing maybe at the airport and people want to do all kinds of things I'm greeting them and someone says so Apostle your message has changed my life I just want to say thank you and I feel very endeared oh may God bless you come God bless you God bless you and you see a little child how are you little girl God bless you what are you doing Madam well I'm trusting God for this and that can that simple thing can become a the schedule of a change of season thousand of David see on me he never called him Jesus you are royalty from the root of David have mercy on me and Jesus looks at him says I'm busy but I will attend to you something about your communicating honor and Desperation has called for my attention oh speak from the heavens and the Earth will heal all speak from the heavens and I'll hear from the Earth is calling me oh God my worship is [Music] when I finish meetings like this and I go home you would think I will just go and balance I smuggle myself into the room and go down my knees and I say Lord Jesus thank you some may trust in horses and chariots but you are the reason why we have these results including this night without fail Lord I Thank you your child has come before you they call me all kinds of names but I know who I am before you I have come to return things you are the hand behind every result that we see and God says even at this level you can do it for me let's measure a thousand qubits you are ready for a new level some of you here may be business people maybe Ministry maybe a career and you find out that you are plateaued at a level it may not be the absence of skill it may be the absence of honor and the absence of gratitude you can literally live off gratitude you can literally live of Honor believe me you can spend your like they ask you what are you doing I'm working in First Bank what are you doing I'm working in Abu and they ask you what are you doing you say I'm a practitioner of honor and gratitude you'll Charlie can use it as a stream of income Let the Fire from your alter touch Let the Fire from your altar touch my body Let the Fire from your arms and touch my body [Music] have you learned something tonight if you've not learned anything from all that I've said just pay attention to this that I said God first is the secret to an excelling life God first not God among not God later not God as part of God first number two that the quality of your mindset is what defines the possibilities in your life listen you will see doors open for you beyond your imagination if you can pay the price can I tell you you may not have a job use the time to read quality books that Kingdom compliant books your mind Apostle I'm trusting God for a husband I'm trusting God for a wife while you are trusting keep reading what works on your mindset because if this version of you marries you kill the man be walking on that mindset in the name of Jesus anger you must live in the name of Jesus wickedness you must live in the name of Jesus evil talking talking like a parrot in 10 minutes you have read the whole book in somebody's ears let it be out of my destiny in the name of Jesus I am ready for a great life and God says now you see it is often said that when the student is truly ready the teacher always comes are we together I'm ready for Prosperity but I don't have money I don't know anything about finances then learn honor and gratitude start from there learn Honor on gratitude go online principles of Honor listen to messages and start praying gratitude get five people in your life who have made sincere contributions and send them a text this is just to appreciate you I had the opportunity to attend the service this night and I was challenged and fresh again and I thought of communicating what I've learned thank you for all that you have been thank you for helping my children thank you for helping my husband or my wife this is simply saying thank you after two days you will get a text [Music] what is your name again I am so see me in my office tomorrow and the person can say I have been doing this for everyone but nobody has done this I showed my wife your text and she said let us help this person and that's it look it is so easy to rise when you understand the power of Kingdom systems Hallelujah are you learning some of you even your biological parents you have not shown them love you have not shown them Mercy you don't care after all they are your parents Mama may not be able to speak English but she had to fry akara to send you to school now that you have a job just counting 50 000 and giving her is not gratitude that's responsibility gratitude is one day you will draw the chair and sit down with her there and say mama I want to tell you something I know that you see that I'm a big man today but I want to say thank you it was your sacrifice you went through so much to make this happen and my mind just crying there and say my son you have become a big man I don't have what to give you but let me place my hand on my chest and let me bless you may your children rise to be greater than you you will just say Amen but it is recorded and archived in heaven you give birth to your child and one Wicked person wants to come and be friends to your children that Covenant will speak drive them far from you because mama left a blessing Hallelujah forever for as long as I live I live a grateful life a grateful life when I came and got down out of the vehicle I was just nodding my head and walking I was almost in tears looking at the faithfulness of God the mercies of God many of you have forgotten what God has done in your life too soon because you are looking for something in front learn to be grateful carry that mindset learn to practice honor and you have scheduled a season of greatness let me recommend as an assignment go and listen to all my teachings on mindsets go and look for them go on YouTube look for them put it as a project I was there have your life changed if the answer is no go and listen pray you can spend the day fasting and lock yourself Lord my destiny must change I am the one you are raising in this family to wipe the tears of people father I pray that you will use me as you the word of God is coming you are writing ah God is showing me what I'm doing wrong now son will no more give you sunlight by day the moon will no more give you more [Music] Everlasting Light he'll be your glory your strength and your sight the light out the moon will be like the light of the Sun and the light of the sun will shine seven times as bright listen you know why I raised this song the power of Illumination when your heart is sincere when you approach god with a Meek heart you are ready for light it will be an adventure of light you will listen to a message you've been listening to every day but your heart condition is what defines the light that comes from that message to you there are people who have all kinds of messages all this one I have it but that your heart is not yet prepared to receive the light so you will just listen to it attentively but you are not receiving anything go back with a and now listen and you will find light that will bring tears out of your eyes man of God hear me your destiny is waiting for you everyone here listening whether you are inside all the overflows and those who are following online make up your mind that this mindset thing I will walk on it don't say I am Yoruba don't say I am IBO don't say I am hausa I was saying it to our Abuja family here that comes from in the north is a northerner he that comes from the south is a southerner he that comes from the East is an Eastern and he that comes from Europe is a European and American and so on and so forth the Bible says what he that comment from above disciple of all so beyond your Earthly Geographic context you must start having the mind of Christ embrace the character the traits of discipline embrace the traits of diligence and most importantly honor and gratitude and you have found the power Keys you don't need to know everything but the interesting thing is that the results begin to come even while you are growing Hallelujah I'm going to pray for you but we all Pray by ourselves and then I'll speak over your life and we are done for tonight remember our text Joshua 1 verse 8. he says and this book of the Lord shall not depart from out of your mouth but thou shall meditate during day and night that thou Mayors observe to do Joshua 1 and 8. you got it right go back 1 8 Joshua it says for then shall thou make thy ways Prosper us and for God's sake and even as a prophecy for everyone here it says thou shall have good success the kind of success that God increases you on all sides and while that is happening the joy of Salvation is bubbling within your heart your life becomes a conduit of impact not just accumulating money and accumulating relationships with no value are you saying that now everything about your life becomes a blessing Genesis 12 and verse 2 and 3 it says in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed that's what I want to happen to my life my my desire is not to be said oh this person is Anointed or has this and has that no no that Jesus Christ was revealed through my life and that whilst revealing Jesus you were able to impact the lives of people someone will say Apostle is because of you I had the privilege to go to school someone will say it's because of you I had the privilege to have a house a roof over my head I was when I saw the picture of the Outreach yesterday that was done I was so humbled looking at these widows and looking at these people and that which happened to them and I was so inspired I said this is how to live this is how to live it's not about driving cars and eating whatever this is how to live it says oh teach us to number our days the Bible says that we may apply our onto wisdom right where you are sitting I wanted to lay your hands on your head and I want you to begin to cry before the Lord your maker pray from the depth of your heart thank you my precious people God bless you God bless you please begin to pray let it be from the depth of your heart God desires for you to grow [Music] for the way of the Lord it's the way of wisdom I choose the way [Music] for the way it's nowhere of wisdom I choose [Music] in the name of Jesus lay your hands and declare my destiny you must open up good success is my Heritage in Christ and in the mighty name of Jesus everything that has enrolled itself above the knowledge of God in my life I come against it now in the name of Jesus

your place in my life that nothing and no one will rise above you in my life that must be your determination tonight to Dethrone every Idol the idols of men the idols of things the idols of achievements that they all power the feet of Jesus Christ he alone be exalted as Lord and Christ and then you watch the Wonder working power of a Victorious Life Hallelujah you're still laying your hands on your head you are going to pray over your mind every stronghold every demonic manipulation that is making me behave in a way that is driving success from me behave yourself dishonor behave yourself fearlessness behave yourself in discipline I come against you in the name of Jesus open your mouth and pray open your mouth and pray let it be from the depth of your heart he said let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus every mindset every stronghold locked up within my inside that is programming my actions scheduling seasons of defeat scheduling Seasons of Loneliness scheduling seasons of pain poverty failure in the name of Jesus the Lord rebuke you open your mouth and pray I Rise Above and Beyond the grip of culture I Rise Above and Beyond the grip of my past I Rise Above and Beyond the grip of my associations I Rise Above and Beyond the grip of my sociological context in the name of Jesus Christ [Music] in the name of Jesus I pray can I give you one more prayer point every spirit and every Covenant that has tied down those who went before me to produce a life of failure I declare you are broken concerning me open your mouth and pray every Foundation of poverty every Foundation of mediocrity whether territorial whether family the Bible declares that it shall come to pass in that day that the burden shall be taken from up your shoulder the Yoke from off your neck and that it shall be destroyed because of the anointing someone pray everything I saw my father suffer everything I saw my mother suffer everything I saw people from my region suffer by the blood of Jesus I am Exempted from it Exempted from begging Exempted from failure Exempted from poverty Exempted from living a wasted life [Music] acceptance from mediocrity [Music] Exempted from smallness [Music] foreign listen please look at me we're wrapping up as simple as these principles are I found them and they changed my life when we seem to look very super human these are the forces that we stand upon that elevates us and sometimes makes us look as if we are such a big deal we are not any big deal in ourselves except that when you stand on this laws you tame life like an animal speak over your life oh [Music] holy [Music] holy [Music] in the name of our hearts oh God [Music] I pray for every close Destiny here that has refused to open up in the name of Jesus the son of the Living God even the one who helps men I declare made that door of your destiny be open now May that door of your destiny be opened now May that of your destiny be open now yummy no matter what has gone wrong before now I prophesy to you remember ye not the former things nor consider the things of old My God is giving you a new beginning my God is giving you a new beginning my God is giving you a new beginning in the name of Jesus Christ let me pray for everyone under the sound of my voice who might be under any kind of situation that is Weighing on you maybe a financial challenge maybe you are in debt you are owing or there's something wrong and it looks like Shaman reproaches imminent every time you get into these kinds of trouble it is the office of the prophetic that brings you out I decree and declare everything that looks like shame I call upon the god of my Covenant in the name of Jesus let shame and reproach depart from your destiny depart from your destiny depart from your destiny depart from your destiny depart from your destiny now I pray for you whatever has killed your prayer life your word study life maybe the challenges of life maybe you stepped into wrong associations that have downplayed God and downplayed the things of God let there be restoration now let there be restoration now finally we've spoken about good success let me pray for you the Bible says it was the Lord that Advance Aaron and Moses they did not just go forward they were Advanced by God he says by you I can run through a troop by my God I can leap over a wall that a man can receive nothing even financially because I know that many of us here right now if I ask you to submit your prayer request about 70 to 80 percent of it will be largely Financial issues God is able to help men to bring you out of financial shame let me speak over your life it will always come from God through men to you therefore in the name of Jesus anyone crying for financial help that God will come and bail you out I declare in the name of Jesus receive help receive help let help us arise for you in the name of Jesus Christ in Jesus name we pray let me make an alter call now

counter that focused not only on the classic cheese's of Europe but also the wonderful American artisan in farmstead cheese's that were having a rebirth so he kind of so he basically somebody started he started doing stuff and then he goes through and he has like the nine rules of buying storing and serving cheese rule number one by which you can use in a week makes sense don't don't freeze it serve cheese at room temperature so I've had these out for the entire last week's episode and then a little bit more than that so they're not truly room temperature they're not like ice cold sir cheese on wood which near a tell but I just have a cutting board so I thought I'd be kind of fancy don't pre-cut the cheese cuz I castings no no no these cheeses are still I mean they're cut from the original like how they were cut from where I got them they're not the actual like I didn't like have a whole round of them don't worry about fancy knives okay it's got steak knife arrange cheese by depth and flavor so I'm actually doing this by how they were paired in the order of the book so we're gonna do the beer pairing the wine pairing and then the side repairing keep the accompany that's simple they say a glass of water okay crackers I think any crackers bread nuts mill we're not doing all that store left leftovers in an airtight container and he really kind of talks about like if you storing in the fridge not the best thing unfortunate I don't have airtight containers for all these things I'm gonna crush as much of these cheeses tonight now I'm just having camera but I was tonight and then wrap them really tight in in plastic which he which is a no-no by the way which he says try to avoid that but you know this the reality is for me to hold these for another couple days you know tomorrow tomorrow's May 2nd yeah I did all these in the same day these last three weeks I'll be in a town and so the earliest I'll be able to cheats more cheese's you know two days from now so but I'll definitely do it then he goes through a beer wine cider you'll have store wine has serving temperatures the proper glassware you know I I just have a pint glass for this beer I got a wine glass for this wine and I got like a another wine glass for the cider just because I I don't really have lots of other glassware but he said the in our opinion that that most of us say was is it's easy to get stuck stucked in the world of glasses glass where you may affect you like to tell you that you should wear you know that we're but you use certain glassware we're certainly expecially varieties of wine yeah I guess I think it's a lot of marketing hooey but you know wider bowls on the glass for for more complex wines and smaller ones for less complex wines and definitely don't use flutes for for champagne because you can't you can't get the aromas and flavors properly and then they talk about tall thin walled vison glasses eyes ideal for it is the ideal showcase for your fluffy headed wheat beers and chardonnays just seem to shine in in a wine glass with a large bowl ciders have all manner of interesting region specific receptacles from wooden cups to hollowed-out ram's horns but their opinion can you really detect a varietal fruit yeah no no no you don't need to invest and all that stuff and let's see it said I've seen beer and wine tasting competitions where the wine was poured into immaculately polished stemware while the beer was served in plastic cups so I mean bottom line is you just use halfway decent you know glassware so for the most part we got that going on he's had these little things called quick lights it's kind of hard to see because it's kind of being blown out the the the exposure but there's a quick bites I can't give you like a little extra information about things like and this one says yeast to drink or not to drink like some beers have the they leave the east in there not really much in wines but in beers they do what happens or not how to decant all kinds of stuff then he's got cutting the tether tips or making new pairings no matter where you are so he has three the quote three pillars of matchmaking so comparable so you know having like with like contrasting so like having sweet and salty together or something like that and then regional what grows together goes together so in this case not quite that in these pairings but you know we'll go through the pairings here in a little bit and why I chose them and what the reasoning behind him was he says beware of extremes yeah I love super sour beers and nuclear potent cheese's but those bold assertive flavors are very difficult to pair properly I won't go through the rest of that he said don't be afraid of failure let's see here and then he goes through the pairing so let's get in at the end he has some other advice and we'll get to that here in a little bit so my first pairing is this one no no this one alright so page 62 the cheese he lists is the quadrille OD bufala country of origins Italy the family is washed-rind the milk is water buffalo the alternatives this is cool cuz he gives you the only does he give you like you know origin the family of cheese that comes from and what type of milk is using whether it's you know cow Buffalo go sheep I mean throughout the book he kind of goes through these accelerations of far as you know what type of milk are using and like how diet affects the taste of cheese and the families and all that kind of stuff so I won't go through all that it's not like here's a section about it it's like in those quick bites or like in descriptions so so that's why you know like why didn't you talk about he does this because he doesn't have a chapter on it he's not here to teach you about necessary cheese he's here to teach you how to some suggestions and there are suggestions in pairing cheese and a beverage so anyway the the beer that he has listed is the bro bro I can't pronounce it's like some Dutch thing that's up some belgian thing but it's do kzd burgonia so this is actually I think a different manufacturer I bought all this stuff at world martinet world markets Central Market on the market thing because honestly it was the easiest place to you buy these types of things and these types of things because they're they're kind of like a specialty higher in specialty like you can't find somebody seems like in a regular grocery store I could have gone to a cheese shop and I could have gone to a you know I could have found it a cheese monger here in San Antonio but I don't know who they are and whether they had the stuff I want and time-wise it was just easier to go here and then I got into a wine shop and bought these things and they probably like looks like a like a place like total wine or like specks locally or maybe even Gabriel's like that the better Gabriel's they probably would have had at least most of this stuff for me so but it was just one more one-stop shop thing anyway country of origins Belgium styles of Flanders red ale other suggestions are the cuvette days Jacobins rouge the Rhoden bock grown crew and the friend or fry em flanders red so and I'm just gonna read the entry here you know about the cheese sticky and soft with an aroma of mushrooms your first taste of the cuadrado dabula is going to leave a lasting impression guaranteed especially a buffalo milk version of Taleggio quad reloj separates itself from the pack with the noticeable but not overwhelming not overbearing triumvirate of funky tangy and nici flavors I'm all about the funk dude I'm not a mushroom eater I don't like eat mushrooms but sometimes but the flavour mushrooms gives it's kind of cool kind of sometimes I only like it let's see oh yes oh the funky tangy and ICI flavors of characterized water buffalo dairy products definitely a picky cheese when it comes to pairing with with a beverage don't even bother drinking German beers with it so look for something with a strong enough yeast flavor of its own to keep the Quadro low from pushing the needle too far into fantastic overdrive kind of like that goes best with flanders red ale if you've never had a sour beer before brace yourself that first sip can really throw you for a loop get used to it though and the puckery smack can develop into an additional and start into an addiction that sends you searching for your next hit see the current wild beer craze in the United States and the universal veneration for Belgium breweries such as Roden Bock Verhagen as exhibits a and B which that's the Duke AZ not this one but the bro or whatever ver Hagee hey whatever flanders red ale is a specific variety of sour beer made in the West Flanders region of Belgium it's it's an acidic and tart yet sort of sweet treat packed with flavors of raspberries cherries Vanilla's vanilla prunes and Cola now he has to think all the results Flemish Reds have enough backbone to tone down Quadra lows funk while the cheese cuts the acid while the cheese cuts the acid together they taste astonishing close to cherry cheesecake and blackberry tart a beautiful example of comparable flavors working in tandem so I chose this because it just sounded so like cool of a description and it's got funk and I don't really drink sour beer so let's try that you know I I I've heard about this stuff so I thought why not try it so let's taste the cheese first and one of these he says later in the book is like you know these exact pairings don't don't try to focus so much I'm like getting the exact Perry like I don't if I didn't get the exact brand oh this is the right one okay maybe the only one that makes this one I don't know but let's say there was another Duke AZ that we're going yet for a different brand don't don't fret that you think it the exact brand and the exact like cheese like this was more of a category cheese instead of a manufacturer like he mentions at other things it's anyway so take a thing of the cheese I don't even use the knife I don't need it and I'm gonna taste the cheese first without the rind hmm oh nice and creamy yeah there's a touch a sourness to it the touch of funkiness maybe not necessarily that the mushroom I'm gonna go back to his tasty notes just to kind of remind myself what he's talking about my being here but there's stuffy a funkiness from probably saying this sorry you see this but there's like a there's a yeah kind of a stinkiness to it add the Rhine oh you know I am gonna go back into the book because he talks about how to eat how to do this so I'm gonna try to find out says after a reason the cheese is buh buh buh let's see here chewy and tasting this is what I wanted to here's the best way that he is found to combine the cheese and your selected beverage for the optimum pairing experience slice off a thumbnail sized chunk of cheese then ball it up between your forefinger and thumb to get a feel for the texture and the oil content pop the cheese in your mouth but don't chew it just yet I mean obviously I'm gonna eat the cheese and then drink the drink and then you do the pairing here press to tease so the cheese to the roof of your mouth with your tongue and then take a sip of the beverage make sure it's immersed in the beverage chew the cheese trying to combine it with the beverage as much as possible before swallowing wait at least 10 seconds to ensure you taste any lean green flavors on the finish take a sip of water or a bite of bread to cleanse your palate then try it under the combo all right so let's let's get into this beer first of all so the cheese right sorry I said boss Central Market so I bought this this hunk this chunk was six dollars twenty seven twenty seven cents if I bought the whole thing that actually works out to twenty $1.99 per pound so these are not cheap cheese's it's not like you know getting Velveeta in crafting American slices this beer I bought is $13.99 and it is a they call them bombers I don't know why it is 1.9 point 4 fluid ounces so 16 plus 9 26 almost 27 ounces I don't know why I'm doing that I don't think it's going to pop open like a champagne bottle but let's kind of treat it like that a little bit of a little bit of carbonation in there so let's pour some in here no but I'm definitely a fight drink I won't drink most of it so yeah just like this really like carbonated aroma to it there's like this almost smoky I was a Cola but there's like this man there's like this there's a funkiness to it there's also this sweetness to it I guess there's a bit of sour almost like a Chinese food thing like a soy sauce thing that's super tasty it's like a really tart like cherry cherry and blackberry like like candy roll-up but tart not really sweet and I guess that's where the sour coming from and it's not super sour I mean I've had some sour beers like oh my goodness this is like light on the sour it touch of sweetness to it and like in like that those berry flavors and all that it's really Pleasant so let's take his advice and we're gonna take you know I guess as a thumbnail thing we're gonna roll around I guess I should have gotten a napkin for myself but I got jeans you write jeans knees counted as napkins right so roll around and it's kind of like it's kind of like slimy that's kind of cool so pop cheese in the mouth oh my god like he talked about like a cheesecake it really was like a cherry cheesecake I mean not exactly but but there was such there was that creamy texture if it didn't happen at first but um yeah no don't lick your fingers man that was good that was man and I've been pairing wine with cheese and and having it all wrong that's legit that's legit that is that is that is pretty fantastic I have to say dude you're you're you're crushing it man right so man that's really nice so moving on we're going to get to this one I had actually on the wine what I had a couple different ones I had some old ladies in there cuz I had some old ladies the house but I was like I wanted something different so this is wine I just don't ever have and so let me let me cleanse the palate here so the next one we're gonna do I don't don't do that well I say just saying it the cheese off of the the fork there all right so I'm sorry a lot of dead air so the next one we're gonna do is the the cheese is the OSA errata or arity country origin is France and that's this cheese right here okay it's a family as pressed and uncooked Pyrenees style the milk is sheep the alternatives are laborer Basque Grafton village cheese bear hill and landmark and a Basque alright the wine he has a domain D Durban Muscat D Bohm's de venise I actually have the domain des Bernardin's so I mean this basically the same thing other suggestion is this one the domain day Finn while a must got the bomb 7e so he gives you three different manufacturers country of origin its France and the stylism Muscat Blanc so about the cheese well I paid six dollars for this chunk and it comes out to $19.99 per pound and for this this is a half bottle of wine and the wine comes out too 23:39 $25.99 I had bought kind of like I had bought like last week's episode Bob I bought a bunch of wine at Central Market that day but I bought six bottles none of this was six bottles general and it came out to 23:39 after the 10% discount it's only $25.99 all right because they had this awesome wine there from from Chateau no was it that one no how did I get 10% off I didn't buy no no no how I got 10% off I don't see I don't see having six wines on there but I said 10% off oh I know why because I bought three bottles of about three bottles of domain saint-michel Brutes because but the 10th anniversary of so he saw that the the me doing the thing well I bought three bottles of like American like cheaper stuff so I could practice so that's I got to ten percent off okay anyway enough of that about the cheese oh so I ratty I know butchering that I'm sorry it's one of the world's oldest cheese's and one of the easiest pair despite its sheep's milk provenance cheese from use milk tends to embody wooly lanolin notes this firm rich ivory delight originated in the western pyrenees between the basque and burn regions of France in Spain where shepherds allowed their sheep to graze in both high and low elevations and a process known as transhuman humanness humanists and that's one of the quick bites which actually was a quick bite for this one up maybe I'll read that one for you you can tell if you're if you're that this cheese comes from a farmstead or a traditional dairy by the sheep's stamp on in the rind a head a head on use head means it's a farm variety and a side view means it's dairy made and I have it highly doubt I'm gonna see anything like that because I don't have the entire wheel and I didn't ask them about it expect earthy flavors and a salty churned butter cracked wheat and roasted nuts with hints of herbs and an underlying caramel sweetness that makes this cheese makes even cheese newbies fall in love goes best with Muscat Blanc the term Muscat encompasses not a single grape but more than two hundred varieties ranging in color and style used to produce lush balance we generally sweeter wines it's also one of the oldest grapes around even the ancient Greeks were drinking this this Muscat Blanc the myriad Muscat clones Muscat Blanc and the wines management are particularly agreeable to cheese with their intoxicating floral aromas and strong honey presence on the palate the results the Muscat we found that pairs with this cheese is made from a small aromatic Blanc of petite groans grapes which produces a wine with a valley in springtime nose of violets and rose petals those rose petals carry over into the flavor joining ripe peaches and apricot preserves add the OSA earth arity to the wines cloying sugars retreat forming a perfect counter balance between sweet and salty hey I feel admission that that counterbalance that contrasting with the sweetness reduce the one is fruitiness steps forward pairing with the richest of the cheese's like peaches and cream or fresh yogurt transhuman two minutes transhumanists transhumans yeah ok I'll put the word down there mount cheeses such as Comte in Oh sour often find their provenance in the grand tradition of transhumance Latin for Overground which involves migrating livestock to higher elevations in the summer and lower elevations in the winter this practice allows the grasses of lower pastures to grow in the summer leaving an ample supply of hay for the animals when they return in the winter there's a certain romance to cheese made in this manner often inside small stone huts where the milk is poured into Grande copper kettles heated over wood fires and eventually formed into massive wheels to bring down the mountain bring down the mountain to market these cheeses tend to have deeper more vivid flavors due to the fresh vegetation consumed by the cows on the higher pastures so if you're starting to pick out the taste of herbs or flowers in that cheese chances are good transhumans play a part so let's see if we get all that good stuff and the picture yes sometimes these pictures of it and may be kind of hard to see those thing is like some type of like Jam on that so or jelly or whatever so it looks very cool I'm actually gonna use the knife to cut this so we're gonna cut a little chunk there a little bit of the rind and then set it break off some he's somewhere that we're good now let me notice he says the sheep's milk but in the transhumance he's talked about cow's milk so I just think whatever whatever the animal that you're doing is goes up and down the hill I kind of well the reason I like that or I gravitate towards that so I kind of feel like this kind of like diurnal shift in wine or in grapes where you have hot days and cold nights and the hot days allow the sugars to increase and then the cool nights makes the acids increase so you're getting higher acid higher sugar content which can give you high acid high alcohol that's tasty it's not as potent as this cheese but it's real tasty let's eat it with the Rhine I try to get those earthy flavors and the salty churned butter maybe not the cracked wheat and roasted nuts why did you get a bit of herbs so maybe or maybe not this went through that type of trans whatever it was called but we'll see here in a minute with the rind I should get some I do get kind of that that earthiness they almost grassiness so maybe you did do that alright so let's let's get into the wine here I'm gonna core VIN it I don't typically Corvin dessert wines because the sugar content can really kind of mess with things but considering I don't want to open this up and I'm not going to actually crush it I just want to just take it a small a small enough amount out of here that's plenty there we go I said how much I paid for the wine right yeah I did okay so it's all cloudy because you know I the the gas but it's still kind of set this like almost pink peach color I don't know how much of that is the the no even even even over the white plate he still has that I suppose awesome apricots for days on this way I put the book over there very apricot very peachy it's a delicious wine definitely sweet the apricots and the peach nectarine like really luscious nectarine orange candy of course all the sugar and all that so let's this is kind of a hard cheese so I don't know if the whole like doing like I did with the other one will work but we're gonna kind of ball it up so hard cheats not really oily not slimy like the other one it was tasty but I having a hard time like really nailing down the they say that the combination here I'm gonna cheat a little bit I have to do one more time take a little bit here for me the herbaceousness really comes through almost like a bitterness like I think because I got more wine and cheese on that second one kind of mushroomy and like literally a grass like like I got face planted in like some fresh-cut grass and hay it's kind of cool so let's see what what they said it was like he said peaches and cream and fresh yogurt so it could be just that the actual cheese I'm using and and and so they got a lot of rind on the second time I'm getting that but I like it I like the earthiness to a funkiness it's kind of cool like it let's move on to the next cheese so this one was the only one I couldn't really get the exact cheese I just really wanted this pairing won't I'll explain why I mean I probably could have got a different cheese and a different cider but I just really wanted this pairing and I'm hoping that this one will be pretty close all right so the cheese is supposed to be vintage cheese at Montana the the Mount Tina country of origin is united states of Montana family is Alpine style washed-rind milk is cow the alternatives are fontina Valdosta that's this one here Central Coast holy cow or the parish hill of Vermont herdsman so I went with this one well then the cider is again I think it the exact cider the Crown Valley Brewing blackberry cider from the United States Missouri style is blackberry marionberry not the DC Mayor right that was the mayor wasn't it like the crackhead or whatever anyway speaking of that so the other Tuesdays you asked the others just is are the two towns Maid Marian the bishop crack Mary Annie bold rock blackberry so I paid 647 for this chunk of the cheese that comes at the 1749 per pound and for the CrackBerry for a six-pack I paid $9.99 okay so about the cheese she's making is in vintage cheese cofounder darryl heaps blood that's the actual cheese you're supposed to use a third-generation cheese maker like his brother Duane and a kraft foods grunt at the age of 13 that's kind of cool he honed his chops on cheeses that probably never saw the insides of a discriminating cheesemongers display case you think now at the helm of his own business in Bozeman Montana I say with a once-thriving dairy industry that suffered in recent decades heaps got a stunner on his hands mount mount tina is a brined Alpine style cheese similar to fontina that definitely balances a mouth coating creaminess with the hearty warmth of French onion soup with a pinch of funk and grass tossed in be sure to serve it closer to room temperature and let them the menagerie of flavors come out to play goes best with marionberry or blackberry cider as with all cider is whether or not they're teeming with other flavors a little sugar goes a long way some cider e's seem to take the addition of a second fruit as an invitation to crank up the sweetness and obliterate the line between cider and kool-aid I'm hoping this is not what happens here but since they suggested this exact one probably not happening but when approached with a little finesse these multi fruit ciders can really deliver something special complex and most of all fun a good Blackberry or marionberry cider needs to balance the delicate profile of the apples with more assertive berries and that balance is best achieved with an with actual fruit not an extract it should be alive with the flavors of shocking fresh-picked berries and as a result offer modicum of tartness if it's a full-on sour then it almost certainly surely was inoculated with a special bacteria or yeast so this is pear the results pear blackberry cider with Tina and your reward is peanut butter and jelly peanut butter I'm sorry not that I think this will be exactly peanut butter jelly because it's not the exact two items but hopefully we'll be close this is no joke this combination is so evocative of a creamy peanut butter and blackberry jelly spread over slices of unobtrusive white bread you'll swear it came you swear it came in a plastic lunchbox and there was no quick fight to read on that one so let's check this out let's cut a little hunk on there so I'm gonna taste a little bit of cheese first chef teah thing here hmm so I'm just sorry funky what'd you say I know some of these act cheese but as far as French onion soup I can kind of see a little bit of onion there a little bready actually kind of a little bit savory try like you know the broth and French onion soup I can see that funk and grass maybe not that but again we're not talking the exact cheese but um it's really nice let's have a little bit with the rind though this one may be one the type of eyes you don't eat because it has like a label on it so maybe I should peel the label off there's the rind this was fine no Ryan has a little more complexity though I had just a the tiniest bit a rind on it all right so let's crack open the crack Mary I didn't well fancy in a wine glass so yeah tons of like fruit on it I mean they said this was a cranberries blackberries apples and cracked with a asterisk asterisk I get the Apple for sure like Apple and probably Blackberry me not the cranberry so much I don't know let's taste it [Music] there's definitely the Apple and this I should have been a tartness to a little bit sour so like he was talking about the the the sourness on it I get some blackberries there to not force the cranberry maybes you know even though Kramer is the first one listed I don't know what the exact percentages of apples cranberries in blackberries but as far as cider is concerned for the most part it's good and how I understand cider it's going to be using majority apple and then they'll maybe add other stuff in there so it's you know--since all apple juice come on let's let's get real dude and I love apple juice we're definitely a tartness and sourness to it listen there's not much as you can like try to pinch it but there's not much to pinch is very very firm cheese so without the rind it's a little bit more pliable it's not peanut butter and jelly but again we're not doing the exact same cheeses and an insider but it's very tasty oops so of the three this one for me didn't work as much but you know what hey it's okay because he even men just sit later in the book like you know don't don't take these don't take these parents as gospel so final thoughts and just say just because I mentioned it they're not only are there exceptions to the rule but exceptions are the norm I won't go through the whole thing there but it says variances within examples of the same style beer wine cider from different breweries wineries sidereus note change to final outcome all that much washed-rind cheese's play nice with wine and cider with beer it's a scuffle sorry cider is unquestionably in his opinion the easiest beverage to pair with cheese but the highest highs and the lowest lows come from beer and wine and then it says we don't always agree on which pairing works so between the two of them and I won't go through it but they basically they had some they had some disagreements like for real disagreements so and then they go through they then they have some additional cheese pairings with with beverages in an index um you know this book alone just even if I hadn't done the actual pairings was very informative um it's a big weak point for me with cheese not that I'm necessarily gonna get quizzed in the court about cheeses but if I'm gonna be doing food pairings this might come up it might be and then he asked me a style of cheese and what would i pair with it so this 75 pairing this is a good like broad thing to kind of give you an idea of what would might work um because you know not saying that these are the only pairings that are out there obviously they're not but I think it's a good idea gives you this stuff you know I'm gonna try this fontina again just to just to kind of give it another shot all right eat it chew on it only if I search for the peanut butter and jelly thing it's kind of there was a little nuttiness that comes with the cheese and the berries but I think it was the exact she's an insider pairing it probably would taste just like it also another thing another note its how he describes or how he suggests to eat it I like that idea but I feel like yet to practice it like it's I'm so used to like as soon as I put you know the drink in my mouth I just wanna swallow it like it's like kind of hard to like coordinate keeping the liquid in your mouth and then start chewing but actually swallowing everything so that's a little practice but I like that my favorite pairing was this was the beer and I think it was custom so such a like cool pairing it really just goes north this is my favorite this is my second pair this is my least favorite I like it but I also don't really care for the cider that much I feels kind of thin in little weak it is a not quite refrigerator temperature and it did kind of warm up but I mean he didn't go through I mean he goes through and hear about serving temperatures of these beverages and in general we drink everything too cold anyway so having a little more warmth to it should add to it but yeah I had a great time and how long is this 45 minutes that's not too bad I had a great time and I highly recommend you do this the book back here is listen is 24.95 us 3395 Canada I don't know if you can get a cheaper from a book store or Amazon or Barnes and / your online book thing of choice but this should be in your arsenal especially if you're like in the psalm side of things you should be an arsenal along with a ton of other non whining books all right so that's going to do it for this week as always click the links above to friend

Louis carefully down and down to just above a boat he throttles the plane and calls out a question which way he shouts is Ireland he hopes for a word he longs for a wave a warmer welcome back to the fellowship of men it is 10:50 2:00 in the morning New York time lindberg sees in the distance low mountains now he is awake with New Hope land is near he quickly unfolds a map across his knees he flies over the southern tip of Ireland he is right on course cows graze on green hills people and horse-drawn carts look up and wait he could land in Ireland but decides to go on he wants to complete his dream so I'm going to stop here and I'm going to do the think pair right so I'm going to take a moment I mean I think about what were the most important ideas the part the part we just heard I'm going to talk about it with my conversation partner and then I'm going to write it down in my student response book don't let me think about it while Lobster I think the most important idea that happened in the part of the story we just heard is that Lindbergh has made it all the way across the Atlantic Ocean and he has made it to the other side and he sees land so what I'm going to write on my page here is that Lindbergh has made it across the ocean you it is 152 in the afternoon New York time as he crosses England it is Lynn Burke's 31st hour in the air he crosses more water the wide day is slowly ebbing toward Twilight when he sees land the coast of France children run out of their houses and watch him fly by he continues on then Lindbergh spies aglow ahead of him Paris I am Here I am here a great joy Wells up inside him for a moment he does not want the flight ever to end huddled inside his tiny box house folded in the dense hum of the airplanes engine he loves the strange closeness to the clouds and sky it is 452 in the afternoon New York time Lindbergh's 40 34th hour in the air from above all Lindberg sees are many many small lights but now he must concentrate on just one thing the sod coming up to meet me closer closer closer the plane touches the ground it bounces rolls hugs the solid earth it is 1022 Paris time the flight has taken thirty three and a half hours so now I want you to take a moment and think about what are what is an important idea in the part of the story you just heard what is the most important idea to understand and remember as you're thinking about your responses I want you to also consider why does the idea that you thought seemed the most important what other ideas seemed important as you listen to the passage why don't fit my why might those ideas be important you thousands of people are running toward the plane for a moment Lindbergh is days it seems to him as if he were drowning in a great sea some people surrounded the plane cheering but Lindbergh can hardly hear them his ears seem to have been deafened by the hours of roaring engine crowds pull him out of the cockpit men and women are calling his name over and over they carry him on their shoulders others begin to tear pieces of the plane more than anything else Lindbergh wants to save the spirit of st. Louis his first words are a question are there any mechanics here but no one speaks English finally two French aviators arrived to help him policemen guard the plane the Aviators take Lindbergh away from the still cheering crowd in the airfield hangar he tells the story of his flight to the other pilots the cramped cockpit the Alumnus the long long night meanwhile unknown to Lindbergh newspaper headlines all over the world are beginning to place in the news American Hero safe in Paris Lindbergh is driven off to the American Embassy he answers more questions about his flight he has not slept in over 60 hours finally at 4:15 in the morning he goes to bed when he wakes his life will be changed forever when he wakes there will be a huge parades and medals and speeches he will be the most famous man in the world it is the year 1927 it is 1927 and his name is Charles Lindbergh what is an important idea about the part of the story you just heard what what is most important to understand and remember you remember to think about why do you think that it's the most important part and what other important ideas might there be and why might they be important you I want to take a moment and have us reflect on think fair right how did it feel I'll giving reasons for your thinking about the important ideas in the book did you change your mind about what was important in a passage you for your individualized daily reading you're going to continue using the reading comprehension strategies and fix-up strategies if you have sticky notes I want you to take sticky notes and Mark when you're when and where are you using those strategies so if you realize that you're visualizing you're seeing details in the story that caused you to see a picture in your head I want you to take a sticky note and write visualize if you made a prediction about what you think is going to happen next in the story I want you to put prediction if you identify the story element like the setting or the plot or a character you could write story element is really what I want to encourage my readers to do is practice noticing when they're using those strategies and where they're using them and seeing how it's helping them you with your conversation partner or you can use your reading journal I want you to you're done doing your individualized daily reading why don't you talk about the book that you read remember to always read the title of the book the author and give a little description of what the book is about and maybe you can talk about some of the comprehension strategies that you were using to help support your reading and how they helped you and as a reminder whenever you're discussing your reading and giving your opinions don't forget to use reasons and evidence from the text and you can practice using the speaking frame the reason I think this is alright that's all I have for you today we're gonna do a little bit more writing tomorrow and hear from a little bit more about Charles Lindbergh so I will see you tomorrow [Music] | Seattle Public Schools TV | UCbWeZY-zLJIpQG-xsJ1Xy2Q | 2020-05-01 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 1,709 | 8,949 |

Martin's fields by night and make a sudden dash at the Palace of Westminster but the design was betrayed and Henry occupying the trysting place beforehand caught or scattered each band as it arrived nearly 60 Lollards were executed the chief being a knight named Sir John Acton but old castle got away and hid himself on the Welsh border it was not till some years later that he was captured and executed as both heretic and traitor when once firmly set upon his throne King Henry proceeded to turn his attention to foreign politics like many other sovereigns in different epochs he had formed the conclusion that the panacea for internal disorders is a successful war abroad nothing would strengthen the House of Lancaster more than a vigorous resumption of the old attacks on France if only they could be carried to a fortunate conclusion the state of affairs across the channel seemed to promise an easy task for the invader the Burgundian and Armagnac factions were waging open war upon each other throughout the land the king was a hopeless lunatic his son the dolphin Louis was a dissipated lad of 17 who had estranged half the people of the land by becoming a hot partisan of the Armagnac s-- the prospect of a war with England was regarded with dismay by the French and when Henry began to tamper with the Burgundians and to speak of renewing the old claims of Edward the third the dolfe as advisors seemed almost panic-stricken before a blow had been struck they offered the King of England the hand of the Princess Catherine with a dowry of eight hundred thousand crowns and undertook to restore to him all those parts of Gihon and Gascony which had been lost by England since thirteen seventy the Duchy of Aquitaine as constituted by the Treaty of batini would have been brought back into being saved that part - and sometimes were to remain French but Henry was bent on war for wars sake and had no intention of accepting these liberal offers in 1415 after many months of negotiation he broke off all relations with France and began to make preparations for invading Normandy no language can be too strong to use in the condemnation of his greed and ambition for the political gain of the moment he condemned England and France to forty years of misery and said on foot a war which was to prove the ruin of his own house in the summer of 1415 the army of invasion was mustered at Southampton it was admirably equipped and composed of picked men but its numbers were not large only twenty-five hundred men-at-arms and seven thousand archers were assembled they took with them the largest train of artillery that England had yet seen the host was on the eve of sailing when the kingdom was startled by the news that a dangerous conspiracy against the King's life had been discovered it had been formed by Richard of York Earl of Cambridge the Kings cousin he had married the sister of the Earl of March and had planned to place his brother-in-law on the throne and rule under his name March himself a harmless an enterprising young man had no part in the plot the chief accomplices of Cambridge were Lord scroop a kinsman of the archbishop who had been executed in 1405 and Sir Thomas grey they kept their counsel so ill that the King got wind of their designs and arrested them before they were ready to strike full proof of their treason being produced all three were executed 5th of August 1415 this plot was a purely dynastic business the legitimate continuation of the many movements in favour of the House of March which had disturbed the reign of Henry the fourth in the middle of August the army crossed the channel and landed near a fluke to which it laid siege the place made a gallant resistance but received no help from without though the dolphin had mustered a large army at Huell the English suffered more from the summer heat and from Camp fever than from the missiles of their enemies after a siege of five weeks the artillery of the besiegers had so shaken the walls that the garrison surrendered September 22nd 1415 a good foothold in Normandy had been secured but meanwhile the season was growing late and the army was dwindling away when twelve hundred men had been told off to garrison on Fleur and the numerous sick and wounded had been sent back to England only 1,000 men at arms and four thousand archers remained available for service in the field this body was too small for a march on Paris or a serious attempt to subdue Normandy and the king resolved to lead them across to Calais and not to advance deeper into France such a movement was rather a defiance of the doofah and his host than a serious military movement it would have been better to bring home the army by sea for the March placed it in grave peril of destruction King Henry crossed Normandy and pika V till he came to the sum which proved as great a barrier to him as it had been to Edward the third in 1346 he was only able to cross it by striking inland as far as Belen and while he was making this detour the French army now commanded by jean de Bie the constable of france out marched him and threw itself across his path close by the village of ajanta the english found the way to Calais blocked by a host of six to eight times their own numbers it was necessary at all costs to force a passage through them where the weather had been bad the army was worn out by long marches and the provisions were almost exhausted accordingly henry drew out his little force and offered battle between the villages of aaja and qu and tom qu October 25th 1415 he ranged his handful of men-at-arms in three small bodies each flanked by two wings of archers and waited to be attacked the ground between him and the French was rain sodden ploughed fields by no means easy to cross when the Knightly armor had grown so heavy that it was no longer a simple matter to march in it the French despising the small numbers of their enemies thought that an easy victory was in their hands they sent before them as at poitiers two squadrons of mounted men who were to break in upon the flanks and rout the archers while the main body followed on foot in three dense lines each larger than the whole English army 25th of October 1415 the cavalry in advance struggled through the heavy ground till they came in range of the archery when they were shot down almost to a man without striking a blow the masses of dismounted knights lurched heavily on in their wake but were brought to a stand by their fatigue and by the deep clay in which they sank almost to their knees they halted in exhaustion some distance in front of the English line seeing their plight King Henry made his men advance and pausing at a convenient distance from the mass bade his bowmen let fly into it for some minutes and then to close the French line of battle already riddled by the arrow shower was easily routed by the impact of the charge the Knights were rolled helplessly into heaps and slain or made prisoners by the lightly armed bowmen who proved far more effective than the men-at-arms on such ground the moment that the first line was disposed of Henry pushed on against the second which made a somewhat better resistance but was finally broken up and slaughtered like the first the third line melted from the field without fighting save a few of its Chiefs who refused to fly and went forward to certain death while they were being disposed of an alarm was raised that the English camp was being attacked from the rear and the king ordered his men to slay their captives and turned back for a new fight but the diversion was caused only by bands of marauders who fled when they saw the King moving upon them so that the slaughter of the prisoners which had been begun proved wholly unnecessary and was stopped when the field was searched by the victors they found among the slain the constable and three Dukes Bravo bar and Allison with seven counts ninety barons and five or six thousand men at arms numbers greater than those of the whole English army fifteen hundred prisoners of rank still survived among them the young Duke of or lay and the counts of Vaughn dome and Alicia Moll the English loss was trifling though two great peers had fallen Edmund Duke of York and Michael Earl of Suffolk only thirteen men at arms and the hundred archers had perished with them the heavy armor of the French seems to have been as fatal to their power of striking effective blows as to their ability to move in the sodden plow land the arrows pierced their mail with ease while in close fighting they seemed to have been at an equal disadvantage and were dashed down helplessly by the axes and maces wielded by the bare arms of the archers the victory seemed to justify Henry's rash march across France and in the actual fighting his tactical skill had been as evident as his personal courage but if the French had been commanded by a cautious and capable general it is hard to see how he could have escaped a disastrous defeat Henry's army was so small and so exhausted that he make no immediate use of the victory and was obliged to march on to Calais and then steak shipped to London he was received with a splendid triumphal procession but his victory had been more showy than fruitful and the possession of a fluke was the only tangible benefit which had resulted from his campaign the Armagnac party had not been crushed even by the carnage at a shanku and there was some fear that the burgundians might be driven into opposing England by a tardy revival of patriotic spirit our Fleur was beset by the French for the whole of the next year and had a narrow escape of falling back into their hands for the greater part of 1416 Henry was busied with negotiations with the Emperor's IGAs Munt who visited England full of great plans for restoring peace to christen 'dom by putting an end to the Great Schism which had been rending the church in twain since 1378 henry gladly lent himself to this scheme which had taken shape at the Council of Constance two popes having been deposed and a third forced to resign a universally acknowledged pontiff was secured in the person of martin v 1417 but the council is better remembered for the burning of John hosts the great bohemian reformer and the spiritual heir of white cliff then for its abortive attempt to reform the debased papacy in return for Henry's assistance and matters ecclesiastical zika's Munt endeavoured to negotiate a peace with France on terms favourable to England but the Armagnac would not listen to the exorbitant claims of the victor of iron core and the Burgundian duke held aloof willing to profit by his enemies misfortunes but afraid to offend the national spirit of france by an open alliance with england the war had therefore to continue raising an army of about the same size as that of 1415 the King crossed the sea in August 14 17 and began to overrun Normandy this time he came not to execute a plundering raid but to conquer the land piecemeal one after another he took gone Li Jie bhaiya Allanson and mocked Anya cutting a huge cantle out of the Duchy in which he established a solid base for further operations the Armagnac sand burgundy uns were fighting hard round Paras and paid no attention to the invader in the next year he steadily pushed his sphere of operations to right and left conquering San lo ku tolls and Cherbourg in the West and then turning East to lay siege to the great city of Huell he kept Stern discipline among his troops and gave such good government to the conquered districts that it contrasted strongly with the anarchy which had prevailed before meanwhile the struggle at Paris had ended in success for the Duke of Burgundy the populace had risen against his rivals massacred the constable Armagnac with many of his party and driven the rest away the Duke became by his victory responsible for the conduct of the war with England but showed himself as incapable as the constable had been of checking King Henry by allowing the gallant defenders of rule to remain unsecured for six months he drew upon himself the condemnation of every patriotic Frenchmen in January 14 19 the Norman capital fell reduced by sheer famine and Henry entered its gates then at last did John of Burgundy begin to stir but it was not an order to raise against the English the whole force of France but to make one last attempt to buy them off by offering more liberal terms than the Armagnac said offered but a conference at mu law may 14 1970 sever he asked for all the lands granted to Edward the third by the Treaty of botany and the whole duchy of normandy as well as for the arrears of King John's long unpaid ransom money of 1360 in despair at the arrogant demands of the English king burgundy resolved to make peace with the Armagnac faction and unite with them for a last desperate attempt to expel the invader his enemies were now headed by Charles the youngest son of the mad king who had become Dafa on the death of his elder brothers they professed their readiness to come to terms with the Burgundians but when the two princes met in conference on the bridge of montijo 10th of September 14:19 the dolfe as attendants treacherously fell upon the Duke and hewed him down as he knelt before his cousin this brutal and senseless murder had the natural result the Duke's young son Philip and all the partisans of Burgundy at once went over to the English side and swore that Charles would never reign over France rather than acknowledged the murderer as heir to the throne they would accept Henry's ill-founded claim and take him as their ruler all the cities of northern France where the Burgundians were strong thus became friendly to the English and opened their gates to the invader on May 20th 1420 Henry entered tois with the young Duke Philip at his right hand and there met the Queen of France her insane spouse and her daughter Catherine whose hand had been offered to him as far back as 1414 the unfortunate Charles the sixth was made to give his consent to a treaty by which he made Henry regent of France and gave him the right of succession to the throne on his own death to the exclusion of the dolphin on June 2nd the English King married the princess Catherine in order to give himself some better claim to the crown than the mad Kings back west after turning his arms against those towns in the neighborhood which still held out for the Armagnac and reducing them Henry brought his bride and his father-in-law to Paris where he celebrated his Christmas festivities in great state early in the spring he returned to England and made a progress through the whole land with his wife to receive the homage and congratulations of his admiring subjects no King England had ever wrought such feats of arms and it seemed that he had carried to a successful end the Great War which had cost his predecessors so much fruitless expense of life and wealth Parliament ratified all the provisions of the Treaty of tois with alacrity not noting we may suspect the danger which accompanied it that England might ere long become a mere province of France for the greater ever draws the less but it was not long before a jarring note was struck to Mar the universal harmony in April 14 22 news came to England of a disaster on the lawar the king had sent his eldest brother Thomas Duke of Clarence to chase the dauphinois out of Anjou and Men but the enemy had received a large reinforcements from Scotland unto the Earl of Buchan and for the first time since Asian core turned to fight in the open recklessly pursuing with his archers far to the rear Clarence ran into an ambush at bojay March 21st 14 22 and was there surrounded and slain his companions the Earl's of Somerset and Huntingdon were taken prisoners the news of this defeat soon drew the King back to France June of 14 22 he marched south and drove the dolphine wah back to our Lille and beyond the lawar then he turned to reduce their few remaining strongholds in central France none of them gave him much trouble save mo whose garrison made a resistance of unparalleled obstinacy Henry formed the siege in October and the town did not yield till May all through the winter of perpetual rain he lay before its walls obstinately refusing to draw back from his flooded trenches he in his army were smitten with a terrible plague of ague and dysentery which thinned his ranks even faster than starvation diminished those of the garrison when spring came the town yielded and Henry showing the stern cruelty which not unfrequently disfigured his action hung the govern and four of his companions he then turned back toward Paris and ere long his wife and the infant son whom she had lately borne him rejoined him but men saw that he was no longer himself the hand of death was upon him for the chills of his winter camp had stricken him with an exhaustion from which he could not rally he took to his bed in the castle of Vincennes near Paris and lingering in the state of utter prostration through the summer heat died on August 31st 14:22 leaving all his great conquests to a weakly child of less than a year old end of chapter 10 chapter 11 of England and the Hundred Years War by Charles William Chadwick Olman this LibriVox recording is in the public domain recording by Pamela Nogami Henry the sixth the minority and the French war 14:22 to 1450 the death of Henry v was followed in a few weeks by that of his imbecile father-in-law Charles the sixth October 21st thus the crowns of England and France both fell according to the provisions of the Treaty of tois to the sickly child Henry of Windsor it might have been expected that the domination of the English across the channel would disappear when the strong personality of the Conqueror was removed and the power which he had wielded passed into many hands but the dolfe at Charles the King of borscht as men now called him was both unpopular and apathetic his counselors and captains were incapable and they could make no profit out of the opportunity which was offered them as long as the young Duke of Burgundy remembered his father's murder and remained the ally of the English the Nationalist Party was unable to make any head against the invaders henry v had left two surviving brothers john Duke of Bedford the elder of the pair was made regent of France an office which he discharged with great energy and ability doing his best to carry on the war with very inadequate resources and conciliating Philip of Burgundy to the best of his power to bind him yet more closely to the English alliance John wedded the Dukes sister the princess and Humphrey of Gloucester was a very different character from his steady and hard-working brother he was flighty petulant quarrelsome and selfish though his affable manners his patronage of learned men and his cultivation of all the arts of popularity won him the name of the good Duke Humphrey from his numerous partisans Gloucester had been regent of England at his brother's death but the Lords of the Council and the Parliament feared his reckless ambition so much that they would only allow him to continue in power under many restrictions instead of Regent they made him only protector of the realm and the King's chief counselor and he was to act on all things with a consent of a Council of Regency composed of 15 members the chief opponent of the Duke was his half uncle Henry Beaufort Bishop of Winchester and Abel an obstinate man who thoroughly distrusted his nephew the majority of the council generally backed the bishop and Gloucester spent much of his time in fruitless bickerings with them it is most astonishing to find that the death of henry v was not followed by any shrinkage of the english possessions in northern france on the contrary the area of the region which acknowledged his little son as king continued slowly to increase for more than six years Bedford was zealous and untiring in his exertions and though help was doled out to him from England with a very sparing hand he contrived to keep up the war to a great extent by the use of French money and French mercenaries twice the dough fiend wah strove to break into the provinces of the English obedience but they suffered too bloody defeats at Kabul July 31st 13:23 and Vannoy august 17 14 24 in the second of these fights fell the Earl of Douglas and nearly all the dofus Scottish auxiliaries further aid from Scotland was hard to get for the English government had just released and restored to his kingdom the long imprisoned King James the first that Prince had married an English wife Joan Beaufort the Bishop's niece and adopted a policy of consistent friendliness to his southern neighbors the first danger to the English domain and France came from a freak of Humphrey of Gloucester he provoked the Duke of Burgundy to great wrath by marrying Philips cousin Jacques Len Countess of Holland and I know who had absconded from her lawful husband the duke of brabant obtaining for her a divorce of more than doubtful validity from the auntie Pope Benedict the thirteenth the Duke wedded her and tried to make himself master of her heritage and a no burgundy had no desire to see Gloucester established as a neighbor of his county of Flanders and joined John of Brabant and over running a know he might even have broken away from the English alliance if he had not been turned aside by the soft words of his brother-in-law Bedford Gloucester meanwhile proved himself an indifferent champion of his wife's claims he fled back to England while she fell into the hands of Duke Philip and was thrown into prison instead of pursuing the Kuril further Humphrey very meanly acknowledged that his marriage had been invalid and consoled himself by marrying Eleanor Cobham a Kentish lady who had taken his fickle fancy 1427 after escaping the dangers to which his reckless brother's conduct had exposed him Bedford was ere long to be confronted by a far more formidable difficulty slowly pushing his operations southward he arrived at the gates of or lay the last French stronghold north of the Loire to beseech this important strategical point the whole available field army of the Regent was sent forward unto the Earl of Salisbury the son of Richard the seconds lollard friend so limited however were the resources of the English that the expedition did not exceed four thousand men yet week as was the attack the defense was weaker still and Salisbury was able to blockade the place by erecting a number of forts Bastille as they were called watching all its gates he was unable with his inadequate numbers to erect a complete line of circumvallate the French made several feeble attempts to save or lay oh of which the best known was that foiled at the Battle of herrings a small reinforcements from Paris guarding a convoy largely composed of salt fish and other Lenten stuff was attacked near Hoover lay by the dufus forces but parked its wagons in a square and easily beat off the French by the force of

resigned himself to the prospect of losing or laio but in the early spring of fourteen twenty nine a new factor appeared in the war and the fortune of the English at last began to wane patriotic hearts all over France were deeply stirred by the fact that for fifteen years a foreign enemy had been able to overrun and plunder the whole land owing to the bitter civil strife which divided its inhabitants into two hostile camps the English were insignificant two numbers and could not for a moment have maintained themselves but for the fact that a disloyal French faction gave them active aid while the apathetic majority stood aside and allowed the dauphinois and the burgundians to fight out their disreputable blood feud to a miserable end meanwhile the countryside laid desolate the towns were sinking into decay and the land groaned for a deliverer from the interminable war help came from an unexpected quarter Jean a young country girl from Delaney and the borders of Logan had been from her youth a dreamer of dreams and a seer of visions while her mind was brooding over the misery of her country she was visited by a series of ecstatic trances in which she believed that her patron saint's the Virgin Sammy shell and st. Catherine appeared to her and bade her save France by preaching unity to all Frenchmen and setting them an example of vigorous action after some doubting she set out to seek the dofus Court at Chino and presented herself before the apathetic prince bidding him mr. himself and drive out the English by means of the divine aid which she brought him her visions promised her that she should relieve or lay low and lead Charles to wrath there to crown him King convinced by some secret token which jean revealed to him or perhaps moved only by motives of policy the dolphin gave his sanction to her mission and sent her forth with an expedition which was about to attempt to succor the beleaguered garrison of or loyal she assumed nightly Armour Girt on a sword which was said to have been discovered by a miracle in the Church of st.

forth with a confidence which they had not shown since I shanku she entered orally on safety April 30th and then led a series of sorties against the English forts which lay around it heading the storming parties in person such was the enthusiasm with which the garrison followed her that her enterprises were successful and the besiegers seeing their line broken were compelled to raise the

that defeats which they could not understand declared that Jean was a witch and an emissary of the devil before her day wrote a contemporary chronicler 200 English would drive 500 French before them but now 200 French would beat and chase 400 English for the future the offensive was always taken by the dolphin's troops and the invaders could only fight on the defensive after the victory of pate the maid escorted Charles to wrath as she had promised and there saw him crowned King of France July 17th 14:29 after this triumph she begged leave to withdraw home but her presence was considered too valuable and she was begged to stay with the army yielding to the request she then advised an instant attack on Paris it was carried out but with such slackness and mismanagement that had failed Joan herself was wounded as she urged on the troops to the storm and her prestige suffered somewhat from the repulse but meanwhile sorely Beauvais Lowell and swass all surrendered to the new king and as a result of Joan's appearance all sham vanya and most of the Ile de France had been abandoned by the English even their hold on Paris and Normandy had been shaken next spring the maid again took the field though her ungrateful master sent her forth with a very inadequate force at her back she declared herself that her career was nearing its end but persevered gallantly in the task which she had undertaken after some small successes she threw herself into Campion which was being beleaguered by a Burgundian army leading a Sally of the garrison to beat up the besiegers camp she was unhorsed and taken prisoner Philip of Burgundy sold her to the English for ten thousand crowns and she was led into captivity The Regent Bedford was always reckoned adjust and prince but in this case he shamefully bolide his reputation he had no mercy for the limb of the devil as he called the unfortunate John she was for some time held in bonds and subjected to cruel maltreatment in order to induce her to declare that her mission was not from God persevering in her belief to the end she shamed her keepers by her courage and piety at last Bedford commissioned the Bishop of Beauvais to proceed against her as a witch after a formal trial before a French ecclesiastical Court she was condemned and burnt to ashes at ahool on May 30th 14:31 Charles the seventh was only less guilty than the English in this black business he made no effort whatever to rescue his Saviour though he had in his hands Lord Talbot and many other English prisoners and could have stopped John's persecution at any moment by threatening to retaliate on his captives any judgment that might be passed on her the maid died unavenged but the movement which she had said on foot did not die with her she had destroyed the self-confidence which had made the English almost invincible she had also stirred up the heart of the French nation and taught them to forget their wretched factions and feuds from the moment of her appearance the Burgundian partisans of the English began one by one to drop off and to make their peace with Charles the seventh in spite of all his faults they saw that he represented the cause of French independence and that it was a sin to fight against him in the ranks of the invader Bedford did his best to struggle against fate and his military talents availed for some years to stem the tide but he felt himself that he was only postponing the inevitable the fatal blow was struck when at last Philip of Burgundy consented to forget his father's murder and to make peace with the murderer at the Congress of Arras he threw up his long alliance with England and reconciled himself to Charles September 10 14:35 four days later the Regent John of Bedford died at Whoville worn out by his long campaigning for 12 years he had hardly been given a moment's rest and he saw that the ruin of the cause which he had so long maintained was at hand Bedford had not been buried seven months when Parris the last refuge of the English and central France fell into the hands of the enemy the burghers wants such hot partisans of Burgundy in England opened the gates to the besiegers and Lord Willoughby with his small garrison had to fly in haste April 14 36 nothing was left now to the English but they're old foothold in the Duchy of Gihon around the ever-loyal book dough and in the North Normandy and part of men it is therefore most extraordinary to find that in these limited regions they were able to maintain themselves for no less than 16 years more the chief heroes of this last and most hopeless stage of the Hundred Years War were John Lord Talbot and Richard Duke of York the latter was the son of that Richard Earl of Cambridge who had conspired against Henry the fifth in 1415 he had succeeded to the Duchy of York when a young boy on the death of his childless uncle Duke Edmund at a shanku but he became a much more important personage in 1425 when his other uncle Edmund Mortimer Earl of March died and left him as heir through his mother and Mortimer Richard now represented the eldest line of Edward the thirds descendants he was twice appointed to the command in France and held it from 14 35 to 14 37 and again from 1441 to 1447 often pushing raids almost to the gates of Paris he even recovered from the French in 1437 the important fortress of Pontoise one of the keys of the sin and it was Maine until 1441 being four times relieved andrey provisioned by the indefatigable talbot when York was recalled from France and 1445 and replaced by Edmund Beaufort Duke of Somerset a commander of much lower stamp the power of resistance of the English and Normandy seemed to collapse and place after place began to fall into the hands of the enemy meanwhile the internal affairs of England present little letters of importance a long struggle went on between Humphrey of Gloucester representing the extreme war party and Beaufort now a cardinal who led those who were in favor of coming to an agreement with France and sacrificing the untenable claim to the French throne and return for some territorial concessions Gloucester gradually lost ground more especially after 1441 when his wife Eleanor Cobham was prosecuted for using sorcery to compass the King's death and rightly or wrongly condemned to imprisonment for life her husband made no attempt to defend her but whether from cowardice or from consciousness that she was guilty it is impossible to tell the temporary discredit of the war party led to serious negotiations with France in 1440 for the King had now attained his majority and men trusted that a new era would commence when he took over the conduct of affairs from the hands of the council he himself was set on peace and it was hoped that the agreement might be sealed by his marriage with a French princess unfortunately however the son of the heroic Henry v and the grandson of the politic Henry the fourth turned out to be the weakest sovereign that ever sat upon the English throne a gentle pious incapable young man he was full of good wishes but lacked the strength to put them into practice he was so modest and diffident that he was always ready to defer to the opinion of the nearest advisor but the next person that had his ear could as easily turn him from his first purpose one unfortunate heritage from his aunt says showed itself in him long ere he reached middle-aged a touch of The Melancholy madness of his grandfather Charles the sixth of France when it fell upon him he had to be placed in retirement and the cloud did not pass from his brain for many months he was entirely well-meaning and his people loved his pious and simple character but they were at the same time driven to despair by the hopeless incapacity which he showed for affairs of state usually he was merely the mouthpiece of those behind the throne the full extent of Henry's weakness was not yet known when in 1444 he allowed his minister william de la Pole Earl of Suffolk a partisan of Cardinal Beaufort to sign the truce of Tor by this agreement the English retained their foothold about Bach doan and the Duchy of Normandy but gave up their fortresses and Men and other outlying regions at the same time the King received the hand of Margaret of Anjou a cousin of Charles the seventh daughter of hon a Duke of Anjou and titular King of Naples the terms which Suffolk had obtained were very unfavorable in return for the ceded strongholds England should have got something more than an uncertain truce and a dowerless bride for her King when the details of the truce of tour were divulged Gloucester again raised his head and began to clamour against the session of men he found plenty of support from the enemies of Suffolk and the Beaufort's and was able to make himself most unpleasant to the young Queen Margaret was a woman of strong passions and considerable ability who soon learned how to domineer over her meek husband and was quite reckless in using her power she threw herself vehemently into English politics as an enemy of Gloucester and his party and started her career in England as the leader of a faction at the Parliament of Faerie February 1447 she and Suffolk concocted a coup d'etat against Humphrey he would see and thrown into prison where he at once died there were strong suspicions of foul play but it seems more likely that it apoplexy caused by a fit of passion carried off the Duke his old rival Cardinal Beaufort who had retired from politics a few years before only survived him for five weeks the government of the realm now passed for a space into the hands of Suffolk the Queen and Edmund Beaufort Duke of Somerset who used the Kings name at their pleasure the leadership of the opposition on the other hand had devolved on Richard Duke of York a far more able man than to come free he had never forgiven the way in which his career in Normandy had been brought to an end by his being superseded by Somerset at all costs the ministry should have endeavored to turn the truce with France into a permanent peace but they were unable to do so and what was worse could not keep their own troops in Normandy and order a disgraceful raid into Brittany by some mutinous bands whom Somerset had left unpaid gave the French and excuse for renewing the war March 14:49 the best testimony to the incapacity of the English government was the extraordinary rapidity with which Normandy was lost in less than a year Somerset had been driven out of the Duchy which York and Talbot had so long maintained against all the strength of France a small army of relief sent over from Southampton was cut to pieces at the Battle of forming Yi April 15th 1450 and four months later cher book the last fortress held by England lowered its flag nothing now remained to England in northern France saved the single stronghold of Calais the outburst of wrath which followed Somerset's disgraceful loss of normandy marks the opening of a new period in English history civil strife was about to be added to foreign war and the Wars of the Roses were close at hand end of chapter 11 chapter 12 of England and the Hundred Years War by Charles William Chadwick Olman this LibriVox recording is in the public domain recording by Pamela Nogami the Wars of the Roses 14:52 1464 down to the moment of the loss of normandy the misfortunes of the french war had provoked no more than a certain amount of clamorous criticism of the Kings ministers the burden of the war had not been very heavily felt it had been largely maintained with French money and the parliamentary grants an aid had not been extravagant the drain of men had been considerable but it had fallen entirely on volunteers and mercenaries the hope of conquering all France had long been abandoned and as long as a broad foothold was kept beyond the channel the details of the struggle had not been minutely investigated it was generally thought that a good deal of mismanagement and maladministration was going on and grumbling never ceased but there had as yet been no great explosion of popular wrath the fact that the opposition was headed by a discredited and reckless busybody like Humphrey of Gloucester had also availed somewhat to weaken its criticism of the ministers now however matters were changed the great Duchy of Normandy had been lost in a few months and this disaster fell like a thunderclap on the nation moreover the discontented had now got an able and popular leader in Richard of York who as men now began to remember who was very near the throne since Gloucester's death the Duke was the first Prince of the blood and the King's nearest kinsman moreover henry had now been five years wedded and yet had no offspring if he continued childless Richard would inherit his crown for this reason both York himself and his admirers were much incensed that in spite of his well-known ability he was excluded as far as possible from public affairs indeed he had of late been sent into a kind of honorable banishment by being made Lord deputy of Ireland 14:48 for a term of 10 years in the unhappy sister island he proved to be one of the few successful governors whom England has entrusted with the unenviable post he and his house were ever after very popular in Ireland nor was Richard powerful by reason of his popularity alone his following among the baronage was very considerable he himself through his father's marriage with Anne Mortimer sister of the last Earl of March was one of the greatest plan holders in the realm he had wedded Cicely Neville daughter of the greatest baronial house in the England of that day her brother Richard Neville Earl of Salisbury and her nephew Richard Neville Earl of Warwick the famous kingmaker of a later day were always the trusty partisans of the Duke three other Neville peers the Lords abric of any Latimer and fokin Berg firmly adhered to the family politics of their race another faithful friend was John Mowbray Duke of Norfolk he was the nephew of York's wife Cicely Neville but his opposition to the Kings ministers was probably due rather to an ancient blood feud with the House of Lancaster for his uncle was the Mowbray who had been beheaded at York in 1405 and his grandfather was the unfortunate opponent of Henry the fourth in the lists of Coventry three or four other houses of minor note were allied with the Neville's and Moe Brees and the whole group constituted a faction of formidable strength the baronage of England had been dwindling in numbers for a century and more there were now not more than thirty or forty lay peers in the House of Lords each of the titles of the Year 1450 represented three or four of the old baron ease of the time of the edwards hence a compact group of a dozen peers now comprised a third of the whole baronage of england the estates Mortimer Mowbray and Neville were scattered thickly all over England and gave rallying points in almost every county for the partisans of York there is no proof whatever that Duke Richard had personally dabbled in treasonable schemes before he had been banished to Ireland by the Kings ministers his conduct all through Henry's minority had been loyal and correct it seems that he was first roused to action by the clamors of the nation and only moved when public opinion demanded that he should take his proper place in the state and exert the influence to which he was entitled as first Prince of the blood had King Henry been a man of ability who could rule his ministers instead of being ruled by them there seems no reason to think that Duke Richard would have stirred all through his life he was a man of cautious and moderate measures but he would have been more than human if he had refrained from using his strength when he was shouldered aside and ignored by the faction led by the Beaufort's Suffolk and Queen Margaret the loss of Normandy was followed by the first popular outbreak in England which had been seen for more than a generation it was directed against the Kings ministers and advisers and appeared all over the southern shires already before forming he had been fought a mob of mutinous soldiers had stoned to death bishop Mullins the keeper of the Privy seal at Portsmouth January 1450 two months later such a bitter outcry in Parliament was raised against Suffolk that after he had been impeached the timid King ordered him to leave the realm for the present he took ship for Flanders but was waylaid on the high seas by some vessels from London and was murdered by the sailors who was at the bottom of this act of piracy was never discovered may 2nd 1450 if the Queen and Somerset hoped that the unpopularity of the ministry might end with suffix fall they were soon undeceived the populace was still unsatisfied in the month of June troubles broke out in many places askew Bishop of Salisbury the king's confessor was slain by rioters in his own diocese there were risings and Sussex and Norfolk also but the main focus of trouble a and Kent it was fomented by a certain John Elmer or Cade a soldier of fortune who had served under York both in France and Ireland he assumed the name of Mortimer stated that he was a distant relative of duke richard and pretended that he was acting in his interests with a great mob of Kentish men at his back he entered London July 3rd 1450 after beating the hasty levies which the ministers sent out against him the Londoners joined him and for a few days he was master of the streets he used his power to execute Lords say the treasurer and Cromer sheriff of Kent the chief officials who fell into his power but Cade soon proved unable to keep his followers in hand they fell to plundering and so frightened the citizens that many of them took arms and aided the garrison of the tower in driving the insurgents out of the city on being promised a pardon the Kentish minh dispersed but their leader refusing to disarm was hunted down and slain meanwhile Richard of York hearing of the tumults in England had left his post at Dublin and crossed sand George's channel when he came to land many of his followers flocked to join him and it seemed likely that a new civil war might break out but the Duke contented himself with issuing manifestos against the ministry and setting on his partisans in Parliament to attack them the Yorkist the majority in the House of Commons tender to the king of petition begging him to dismiss Somerset and his friends but Henry was entirely in the hands of the Beaufort's and refused to listen to it when Thomas young member for Bristol spoke of the Duke as rightful heir to the crown he was sent to the tower York still held back from violent measures but if anything was yet wanting to complete Somerset's discredit with the nation it was the result of the next year's campaign in France in 1451 the French threw themselves upon a key ten which the government had holy neglected during the domestic troubles the Gaskins did their best but one after another all their cities fell before the French artillery bak doe yielded in June and by Yun in October without having received any succor from England only Calais now remained unconquered of all the broad domain which Henry the sixth had inherited on the continent the loss of a key ten at last drove York to desperation raising his own retainers and those of the Neville's and mulberries he marched on London the King at the head of a larger force faced him at Dartford in Kent and there at a conference Henry promised to dismiss his present advisors and change his methods of governance but when York had disbanded his army Somerset appeared again at the King's right-hand and Duke Richard found that he had been tricked March 1450 to he was arrested and only released after pledging himself never again to take arms this promise he kept under circumstances of great provocation for the next three years from 1450 to to 1455 meanwhile the last campaign of the Hundred Years War was about to begin the Gaskins sincerely attached to the english connection and impressed by their new french governor's burst out into insurrection in the summer of 1452 to aid them Lord Talbot now Earl of Shrewsbury came over from England at the head of four or five thousand men aided by the insurgents he recovered Bordeaux and all the lands around it and during the winter of 1450 two and three held his own with ease but when summer came around the whole national levy of France marched into a key ten and laid siege to Castile hurrying up to rescue it the brave old Orel resolved to storm the French lines of circumvallate forming his men in a deep column contrary to the English custom he launched them at the entrenchments but the hostile artillery blew the head of the mast to pieces tall but himself was slain and after a hard struggle the English and Gaskins were cut to pieces July 17 1453 this battle settled the fate of Aki ten for Somerset could not or would not send out further suckers and book doh capitulated in October after holding out gallantly for ten weeks a few days after the Battle of Castile and long before it could have been known in England King Henry fell for the first time into a fit of madness the result it is said of a sudden fright for 18 months he remained in a state of melancholy apathy or rather idiocy and was unable to discharge the simplest functions of royalty this was in many ways the best thing for England that could have happened and many years of trouble would have been avoided if he had never recovered after a space Parliament met an appointed Duke Richard protector of the realm while Somerset was sent to the tower but some three months after her husband had gone mad the Queen after nine years of childless wedlock gave birth to a son a circumstance which changed the aspect of politics by cutting York out of the line of succession to the throne he behaved however with correctness and moderation acknowledged to the infant Prince as heir to the crown and did homage to him he acted as regent for more than a year and did his best to bring the internal affairs of the kingdom into order for the French war nothing could be done with the second fall of Bordeaux all hope of retaining a foothold in Akutan had vanished about midwinter 1450 four and five King Henry's suddenly recovered his senses the moment that he was convalescent his wife induced him to release Somerset from prison and a few weeks later York and his friends were dismissed from all their offices which were given back to the Beaufort's and their partisans a parliament was then summoned to meet at Leicester which was to reverse all the acts of the Protectorate now at last Duke Richard lost his temper and took arms at the head of his faction after issuing a manifesto which denounced Somerset not only as a Minister of trading capacity but as a perjured traitor the king with a considerable armed following was moving from London toward the Midlands when the Duke and his partisans fell upon him at st. Albans there was a short but sharp fray in the streets which ended in the victory of the Yorkists due mainly to the hard fighting of the younger richard neville the earl of warwick who first broke through the Lancastrian barricades somerset was slain and with him several peers of his faction the King fell into the hands of the victors May 22nd 14:55 this insignificant skirmish in which neither side had more than 2,000 men present cost the lives of only a few scores of fighting men but it was to be the prelude of a war of the most desperate and bloody kind which was to mow down half the baronage of England it came to be known as the War of the Roses from the white rose which was the badge of the House of York and the red rose which was afterwards assumed as the token of the House of Lancaster at first it seemed possible that the Battle of st. Albans might lead to a mere change of ministry much desired by the majority of the nation Duke Richard treated the captive King with all respect and merely reinstated himself and his friends and power the excitement of the battle had thrown Henry back into his melancholy madness in which he lay for some months incapable of all action the Dukes term of power however lasted little more than a year in October 1456 the King having recovered his senses once more fell onto the influence of his wife who now put herself openly forward as head of the loyalist faction in place of Somerset by her advice the Yorkists were removed from office three years of unrest and bickering followed from 1456 to 1459 before matters again came to a head each party meanwhile was preparing for the inevitable strife the bloodshed at sant Albans had made reconciliation impossible and it was felt that the next struggle must lead to the extermination of one party or the other Duke Richard saw that it would not avail him to attain once more to office if he was always liable to be dismissed from it at the Queen's pleasure when forced to take up arms again he must make his position secure Margaret on the other hand was conscious that if she failed in the oncoming struggle the succession of her little son to his Father's throne would be more than problematical she was resolved to fight to the death for his rights and spent all her time and energy in binding into a compact Lancastrian party those of the baronage who were not allied by blood or ancient friendship with the houses of York Neville and Mowbray beside the Beaufort clan now headed by Henry son of the Somerset who had fallen at Sint Albans she could count on the support of the Percy's old rivals of the Neville's in the north of the kortney's Earl's of Devon in the West of the dukes of Buckingham and Exeter and the Earl's of Oxford and Shrewsbury and of a body of barons decidedly more numerous than those who followed Duke Richard though not individually so powerful all through 1458 both Yorkists and Lancastrians had been secretly arming for a new trial of strength in the summer of 14 59 the Queen began to issue writs in her husband's name bidding her partisans to be ready to turn out in arms at a moment's notice it was this fact followed by a peremptory summons to the Yorkist leaders to present themselves before the king in person which seems to have provoked the final outburst in September Duke Richard raised his standard in the more number lands on the Welsh border while Salisbury called out the Neville tenants in the North Riding and the young Earl of Warwick hurried over from Calais to join his father the two Neville's made their way to the west to join their kinsman Warwick without difficulty but Salisbury only after a sharp fight with the loyalists of Cheshire and Staffordshire on whom he inflicted bloody check at Bloor Heath but the numerous supporters of York and London and Eastern Counties had no time to join their chief before the fate of the campaign was settled the king showing for once in his life both energy and decision had placed himself at the head of the levies of central England and marched on Ludlow where the insurgents lay their armies faced each other at Ludford across the flooded team and a battle on a large scale seemed imminent but the Dukes partisan saw that they were much outnumbered and many of them felt scruples at resisting their sovereign when he personally led his army to attack them this time it was no question of opposing a Suffolk or a Somerset the king himself and not merely the king's name was arrayed against them when Henry and his hosts passed the team and advanced on the Yorkist camp the insurgents melted away before his face without fighting and the Lancastrians were victorious without striking a blow Duke Richard escaped to Ireland where he found a warm welcome the two Neville Earl's escaped in a fishing smack to Calais where the garrison was devoted to Warwick who had long been their governor October 14 59 the route of Ludford placed the Queen in a triumphant position the Yorkists had put themselves in the wrong by their armed rebellion and it would have been easy to crush them in their two last strongholds but Margaret showed herself an incompetent ruler instead of making a vigorous attempt to end the war she set to work to prescribe and punish her enemies before they were completely disposed of the Duke and his chief followers were attainted their lands were confiscated some of their minor adherents were executed but no assault and strength was made on Calais or on Ireland the Yorkist party had time to recover from its panic and the nation was shocked by the Queen's violent actions the most unwise of them was that she had allowed the open town of Newbury to be sacked merely because it belonged to the Duke in June of 1460 Warwick who showed himself throughout the leading spirit in the Yorkist ranks landed its sandwich with a few hundred followers from Calais the Kentish men at once rose in arms to aid him the Londoners opened their gates to him though a royalist garrison maintained itself in the tower an archbishop Porcher a cousin of York brought the levies of the Eastern Counties to his aid the Queen taken by surprise had called together her partisans from the Midland shires at Northampton where they Palace a two day strong entrenched camp but Warwick hurried forward from London stormed the fortifications and routed the Lancastrians King Henry was taken prisoner while the captains of his hosts the Duke of Buckingham and the Earl of Shrewsbury were slain July 10th 1460 the Queen and her young son escaped to the north where they took refuge with the Earl of Northumberland Duke Richard arrived from Ireland too late to take part in his nephews victory and found the greater part of the realm at his feet he called together a parliament in which hot disputes broke out among his partisans as to the way in which the governance of the realm should be arranged twice already the plan of retaining King Henry on the throne and making York Protector had been tried and had failed many of the Dukes advisers were of opinion that he might now set aside Henry and declare himself King there was no doubt that from the point of view of strict hereditary right the heir of the House of March and Clarence had a better title than the heir of Lancaster Richard himself leaned to this alternative but Warwick and the Neville's were for a less violent change they thought that Richard should be proclaimed Protector for life and heir to the throne while Henry should be allowed to reign a name so long as he lived personally the pious King was not unpopular and no one wished Amil but it was necessary to disinherit his young son Edward in order that Queen Margaret might never again interfere in politics this alternative was ultimately adopted it bears a strong resemblance to the scheme formulated at the Treaty of tois in respect to the crown York being named protector for life had now to subdue the parts of the realm where his title was not acknowledged he sent against Wales were the two tutors Jasper and Owen stepbrother and stepfather of King Henry were in arms footnote some years after the death of Henry v his widow Catherine of France had wedded oh and Tudor a plain Welsh gentleman her two sons by him Edmund and Jasper were made Earl's of Richmond and Pembroke by their half-brother the King the former who died young was the father of Henry the seventh and footnote his eldest son Edward Earl of March a young man of eighteen who had seen his first service in the field of Northampton he himself and his brother-in-law Richard Neville Earl of Salisbury marched into the North there the Lancastrian interest was very strong indeed the Yorkists at little influence north of the Humber Savin the Neville estates in the North Riding the Queen the young Duke of Somerset and the Percy's had raised a considerable army and were bent on fighting York undervaluing their numbers and overestimating the extent to which they had been demoralized by the defeat of Northampton rashly engaged with them at Wakefield though his forces amounted to only a third of theirs he was surrounded and cut to pieces with a whole of his army the Earl of Salisbury and Edmund of York Richard's second son a lad of 16 were captured and put to death in cold blood by the victors their heads with that of the Duke himself or struck off and placed on spikes over the gate of York December 30th fourteen sixty this murder of prisoners and mutilation of the dead was by far the worst outrage which had yet happened in the struggle it embittered the civil war into a blood feud and made the heirs of York and Salisbury pitiless for the future hitherto they had given quarter but now they had the death and dishonor of their fathers to avenge a change for the worse is at once visible in their action after the victory of Wakefield olenka Koreans flocked in from all sides to join the Queen and she was able to march on London at the head of a formidable host the task of opposing her fell on Warwick who by the deaths of his father and uncle had become the undisputed head of his party Edward of March being is yet young and little-known Warwick arrayed the Yorkists of London Kent and the eastern counties at st. Albans and their awaited the hostile attack it was delivered with great vigor on February 17th 1461 and once more the Queen was victorious treachery or chance left a gap in the Earl's line through which the Lancastrians penetrated and the routed host was pushed westward in its flight leaving the road to London open the king was recaptured by his friends and his wife celebrated his deliverance by executing the two chief Yorkist prisoners who fell into her hands the fall of London now seemed so sure that the victorious Lancastrian spent eight days and settling the terms of capitulation at their leisure this delay proved their ruin and saved the capital Edward of March had now beaten the Welsh levies of The Tudors at the Battle of Mortimer's cross February 2nd 1461 and was already on the march for London when the news of the disaster had sent Albans reached him at Chipping Norton Warwick joined him with the wrecks of his beaten host and after a short conference they agreed to move on the capital and throw themselves into it if it were not already in the enemy's power by a forced march they reached it on the very day when it was to have been surrendered to the Queen February 26 the sudden arrival of 12,000 Yorkists within the walls changed the aspect of affairs and the Londoners resolved to hold out Margaret and her generals were not prepared for a siege their army was discontented at being denied the sack of London and was already beginning to melt home with the plunder which it had gathered in the Home Counties after some hesitation the Lancastrians determined to retire northward to gather info and to throw the dangers of the offensive on their enemies as they moved backward along the road to York they ravaged the country around in the most shameful manner it was this misbehavior of the northern masked troopers which mainly accounts for the sudden vehemence with which the Midlands now toke up the cause of York hitherto they had been but lukewarm but smarting under their losses they turned out in great force to join Edward of March and Richard of Warwick the former before starting on the campaign was saluted by his followers as King unto the name of Edward the fourth he claimed the crown as heir of Lionel of Clarence ignoring the Lancastrian usurpation and dating his reign from March 14 61 though his title did not receive parliamentary sanction until November thus with him triumphed the cause of hereditary right as opposed to that theory of election by the nation represented in Parliament under which the Lancastrian house had held the throne allowing only a few days of rest to their army Warwick and King Edward followed the Lancastrians toward York gathering up on their way numerous levies from the eastern and Midland shires on March 28th the enemy was found lying behind the river air after driving in his rearguard by a skirmish at Ferry Bridge the Yorkists crossed the stream and came upon the Queen's host drawn up on the hillside of tauten next day Palm Sunday March 29th 1461 the bloodiest battle of the War of the Roses was fought both sides were in great force and contemporary writers thought that as many as 60,000 Lancastrians and 45,000 Yorkists were engaged figures that cannot be trusted for a moment in a blinding snowstorm the Yorkists climbed the hillside and ranged themselves opposite their foes after a preliminary discharge of arrows the hosts clashed together all along the line and remain locked together for many hours of close fighting with sword and axe toward evening a flank attack made by the Duke of nor settled the result of the battle and the Queen's army turned to fly besides those who fell in the pursuit great numbers were drowned in the flooded stream of the which lay just behind their position the slaughter was very great especially among the Barons and knights who could not easily fly in their heavy mail the Earl of Northumberland and four other peers were slain the Earl's of Devon and Wiltshire and a great number of knights and Squires captured in the pursuit were beheaded in revenge for the slaying of Salisbury and Prince Edmund after Wakefield the Queen with her husband and her young son fled from York into Scotland the moment that the result of the battle was known with them with the young Duke of Somerset almost the only Lancastrian of no two escaped from the field alive the party was crushed beyond hope of recovery and though it's desperate partisans held out for nearly three years more in Wales and on the Scottish border they were never able to shake the power of the new king indeed England's south of the t's was free from civil war from the day of tauten onwards the lingering struggle in Northumberland was only sustained by two supports the Queen's untiring energy and the desperate hatred for the Neville's which filled the hearts of the Percy's and the other Nobles of the north Margaret bought aid from Scotland by ceding barracks to King James the third she crossed to France and wrung money and auxiliaries from the stingy louis xi by promising to give over Calais to him but all her efforts came to naught the great Northumbrian fortresses of Anik and Bamburgh were taken by the Earl of Warwick in 1462 by the aid of her French troops she recovered them for a moment but this success was only to lead to a second disaster Warwick returned and blew the great northern strongholds to pieces with his artillery 1463 the Scots grew tired of the war King Louis would give no more aid when he found that Calais was not likely to come into his hands the final desperate rally of the northern Lancastrians was crushed at the fights of hedge Lemoore April 15th and hexam May 13 1464 after this victory the few surviving Chiefs of the loyalists fell into Warwick's hands and when he had beheaded the Duke of Somerset and the Lord's ruse and Hungerford the long resistance collapsed for lack of leaders at last there was no man left in England who did not bow his head before King Edward and his great vice regent Richard Neville King Henry himself wandering hopelessly in disguise through the realm that had once been his own was captured and consigned to the tower where he lingered for six years in pious melancholy end of chapter 12 chapter 13 of England and the Hundred Years War by Charles William Chadwick Olman this LibriVox recording is in the public domain recording by Pamela Nogami Richard the kingmaker and Edward the King 1464 to 1483 while the struggle with the last survivors of the Lancastrian faction was still in progress the governance of England had been in the hands of the Neville clan Richard of Warwick the kingmaker the head of the House and by far its most able representative had been continually in the field as the leader of King Edward's armies George Neville Archbishop of York Warwick's brother was Chancellor John Neville Lord Montagu another brother was regarded as the Kings confidential counselor he had also commanded at hexam and Headley War William Neville Lord Falkenberg had been made Earl of Kent for his services at tauten and several other members of the family were high in place about the King the house and it's connections had formed the backbone of the Yorkist party and its members thought themselves entitled to good payment for their services if Edward the fourth had been a weak ruler the domination of the Neville's might have continued all through his reign but the young king was far from being a nonentity he was able obstinate selfish and ungrateful the last of men to suffer himself to be made the tool of his mother's relations as long as the Lancastrian still made head against him he was content to use the services of Warwick and his brothers but now that his throne was safe he intended to rule after his own will and inclination he was quite competent to do so at Mortimer's cross and tauten he had already shown that he was a good soldier he had a clear head a hard heart and no scruples his weak point was a love of pleasure and debauchery which sometimes led him to waste his time and idleness but when prompt and decisive action was required he always shed his sloth and sent to work with an energy and ability which startled his enemies the first rift between the king and the Neville's appeared in the year fourteen sixty four just after the last hopes of the Lancastrians had been crushed at hexam the king was now 23 and it was high time for him to Wed with his apparent consent work commenced the negotiation for his marriage with the sister of the Queen of France the Neville foreign policy had always been to ally England to France and to distrust the King of France's rival Charles the rash the great Duke of Burgundy suddenly Edward announced that the French match must be dropped because he was married already he had become infatuated with a beautiful widow seven years older than himself Elizabeth Woodville was the daughter of Lord rivers a Lancastrian Pierre and her first husband Sir John grey another prominent Lancastrian had fallen at sinned Albans caring nothing for the disparity of rank nor for the disloyal traditions of Elizabeth's family Edward had secretly married her and kept the matter dark for six months between May and October of 1464 when he safe to declare what he had done Warwick had at once to abandon his negotiations with louis xi and was much displeased at the manner in which he had been tricked the king soon began to display an exaggerated fondness for his wife's numerous relations to place them about his person and to seek wealthy marriages for them we cannot doubt that his conduct was dictated by policy and not by a real regard for the Woodville's and grace who were a greedy and grasping crew he wished to surround himself with persons entirely dependent on his favour as a check on the haughty and self-reliant neville clan for the same reason he created a number of new peers to counterbalance the neville family group in the House of Lords for two years there was no open breach between Edward and Warwick but in June of 1467 the King dismissed George Neville the Chancellor openly disavowed Warwick and his policy and put himself entirely in the hands of his new friends his change of views was completed by the formation of an alliance with the Duke of Burgundy to whom he gave his sister Margaret in marriage to break so rudely and openly with the Neville's was unwise the family was powerful in nearly every part of England and Warwick had been for so long the figurehead of the Yorkist party that most of its older members look to him and not to the king for guidance moreover the Woodville's were making themselves hated for their pride and shameless greed a typical instance of their conduct was the marriage of young John Woodville the Queen's brother to the Dowager Duchess of Norfolk who was old enough to have been his grandmother but possessed wealth enough to tempt him into the match noting the unpopularity which was gathering around Edward Warwick began to make quiet preparations for resuming his old position even though he might have to use force in the process he enlisted in his cause the King's brother George Duke of Clarence an ambitious and discontented young man by giving him the hand of his eldest daughter Isabelle Neville on whom since the great Earl had no male issue the larger half of his vast estates would someday devolve in July of 1469 thinking matters right for his interference Warwick set his followers to work his nephew Sir Henry Fitzhugh and his cousin Sir Henry Neville took arms in yorkshire with a program much like that which the Lords appellant had used against richard ii or the early Yorkists against Suffolk and Somerset the King must be freed from unworthy favourites and provided with a respectable and responsible ministry that is replaced in his former dependence on the house of Neville this rising is often called the rebellion of Robin of Redesdale an assumed name adopted by one of its leaders Sir John Conyers Warwick had passed the word around among his friends and adherence to support the rising but did not appear himself soon the rebel army swelled too formidable proportions moved south and routed the troops which the King sent against them under the Earl's of Pembroke and Devon at educate field near Banbury Edward after the battle saw his army dispersed and fell into the hands of the rebels Warwick and Clarence then appeared upon the scene and assumed the custody of the Kings person Edward was treated with formal courtesy but placed for a time in safekeeping at Midland castle and Neville stronghold in Yorkshire his favourites fared much worse the Queen's father rivers her brother John Woodville and the Earl's of Devon and Pembroke were all beheaded by the rebels with Warwick's full approval greedy upstarts as they were they did not deserve to die without a trial and their bloody end shocked the whole Yorkist party after keeping the king two months under restraint from August to September 14 69 Warwick released him thinking that he had been taught the necessary lesson and would for the future refrained from offending the Oh Klan as a matter of fact Edwards spirit was not broken and his only thought was to revenge himself on the Earl and Clarence six months later he got his opportunity a Lancastrian insurrection broke out in Lincolnshire in March of fourteen seventy and to suppress it the King gathered a large army whose leaders were carefully chosen from among the enemies of the Neville's after dispersing the rebels near Stanford in a fight often called lose Cote field the King suddenly wheeled about and marched against Warwick and Clarence who were coming from Coventry to join him with a small force he was resolved to treat them just as they had treated him in the preceding year having caught them unprepared he hunted them across England and finally forced them to embark at Dartmouth and flee to France March 14 seventy the great Earl had fallen so easily because he had not been granted time to call together his numerous adherents if the King had lingered Warwick's expulsion would have cost him much heavy fighting he was now master of his realm again but not for long his enemy was bent on revenge and had made up his mind to forget all his old grudges against Margaret of Anjou and the Lancastrians at the court of Louis the eleventh the Earl met the exiled Queen and made his peace with her they agreed to join their forces in order to crush Edward the fourth and Warwick undertook to replace Henry the sixth on the throne as the pledge of reconciliation his younger daughter and Neville was betrothed to Prince Edward the air of the Lancastrian house Warwick soon set to work to use all his powers of intrigue his emissaries over round the whole of England bidding his partisans to be prepared for a rising in the autumn while Queen Margaret sent similar warnings to the survivors of her party in September the plot had been prepared Lord Fitzhugh a brother-in-law of Warwick got up an unimportant rising in the north to attract the king attention Edward took the bait and when he had reached York the Earl slipped across the channel and raised his banner in Devon sure a district where the Lancastrian party was strong when the signal was given the retainers of the Neville's rose and arms and every Shire and the King had to turn southward he had only reached Nottingham when he found that Warwick's brother Montague had led over to the enemy the whole of the levies of the Midlands which had been gathered together to resist the invasion the King's Own soldiery began to melt away from him in in despair he rode hard for the coast and took ship at Lynn with his young brother Richard Duke of Gloucester Lord Hastings and a few scores of faithful followers he reached the Netherlands in safety and was kindly received by Charles the rash his brother-in-law the Duke of Burgundy was anxious to oblige any enemy of his old foe louis xi of france the power of the Neville's had been vindicated and Warwick might indeed call himself the kingmaker when he drew Henry the sixth from his prison in the tower and replaced him on his long lost throne Edward had been beaten without a blow struck and his wife and young daughters were at the Earl's mercy as hostages he did not however disturb them when they took sanctuary at Westminster the position of the Conqueror was a difficult one he was distrusted by the Lancastrians and himself distrusted them Clarence his chief supporter was discontented at the restoration of the old King he had hoped that his father-in-law would have given him the crown instead of replacing it on the head of Henry Edward was known to have many partisans but how many no one could say since they had been given no opportunity of displaying themselves meanwhile a ministry partly composed of Warwick's friends partly of Lancastrians was put in power and for the moment all was quiet Queen Margaret and her son very unwisely lingered in France they should have crossed the channel when their party triumphed in march fort 71 came the last development of the long strife between the kingmaker and his former master Edward the fourth was furnished with fifty thousand florins and twelve hundred mercenaries by the Duke of Burgundy and sailed forth from Holland to try his fortune once more he landed in Yorkshire giving out at first that he was only come to claim his father's Duchy and did not ask for the crown or in ten Civil War by the inexcusable carelessness of Montague who was commanding in the north he was allowed to slip across the trent and to reach leicester where a considerable body of his partisans joined him it seemed probable however that he would soon be crushed by numbers for hostile forces began to close around him on all sides and Warwick himself advanced to Coventry which had been appointed as the mustering place of his host from this rather desperate position Edward was rescued by the treachery of his brother George of Clarence the Duke had been commissioned to raze the Western Midlands and King Henry's name but when he approached Coventry he swerved aside and joined the invaders with seven or eight thousand men this made Edward so strong that war could not fight him until he had received reinforcements while the Earl was waiting his adversary made a desperate Dash for London and was admitted within its walls by a sudden rising of its partisans April 11th 1471 but Warwick was now close at his heels with all his host until he was beaten off nothing had really been secured accordingly the Yorkists marched out and met their pursuers at Barnet where on April 14th a desperate battle took place it was fought in a dense fog a circumstance which proved fatal to the great Earl for two cores of his army mistook each other for enemies and came to blows when they recognized each other each thought the other had deserted to the king and both cried treachery and fled the remainder of the kingmakers men stood their ground but were overwhelmed by numbers and cut to pieces war acum self and his brother Montague were both left dead upon the field on the very day of Barnet Queen Margaret and her son landed at Weymouth and put themselves at the head of an army which the Beaufort's had gathered in Somerset in Devon hearing of Warwick's defeat and death they resolved to make their way toward Wales a great Lancastrian stronghold but by a forced march king edward threw himself across their paths and forced them to fight at Tewksbury with the unfort able Severn at their backs after a hard struggle the Lancastrians were beaten from their position and all who could not fly fast were slain captured or driven into the river the young Prince Edward was killed as he cried in vain for quarter and called on the name of his brother Clarence with him fell the Earl of Devon and Lord Wenlock Edmund the last duke of somerset of the Beaufort line was captured and executed with ten other prisoners of rank may 4th 1471 Queen Margaret also fell into the victors hands her life was spared but with a perfectly gratuitous cruelty Edward ordered her harmless husband to be secretly put to death in the tower now that his only son was dead Henry was no longer valuable as a hostage and was made away with his murderer gave out that he died of pure displeasure and melancholy so ended in one common disaster the dynasty of Lancaster and the great house of Neville the male line of John of Gaunt was extinct the female line was only represented by the King of Portugal and the queen of Castile who descended from two of his daughters and by the Lady Margaret Beaufort the last of the Somerset's she had a son by her first husband Edmund Tudor Earl of Richmond and this young boy was one day to reign unto the name of Henry the seventh the vast estates of Warwick were divided between his two daughters the Duchess of Clarence and the Princess Anne the widow of Prince Edward the latter was forced to marry the King's youngest brother Richard Duke of Gloucester so that all the broad Neville Montek you'd and Beecham Lance passed into the hands of the royal family IDI word had yet 12 years to reign they contrast strongly with the trouble as times between 1460 and 1471 for their annals are lacking and interesting incident the king was strong handed enough to rule as he pleased and might have become a tyrant had he been more Restless and energetic but habits of sloth grew upon him and he wasted much of his time on pleasures lawful and unlawful and on riotous living before he was forty he had ruined his Constitution and had grown grossly corpulent and unwieldy his rule was far more autocratic than that of the Lancastrian house between fourteen seventy eight and fourteen eighty three he did not call Parliament together and he often indulged in the unconstitutional practice of raising benevolences or forced loans not sanctioned by parliamentary Authority but he can hardly be called an oppressive ruler his arbitrary acts did not affect the bulk of his subjects and his financial exactions were moderate for he was much wealthier than his predecessors owing to the vast amounts of confiscated land belonging to the followers of Lancaster and Warwick which had fallen into his hands after fourteen seventy five he had another source of revenue in alliance with Charles of Burgundy he invaded France and advanced as far as the horn in P Cathy but the wily louis xi offered to buy him off by paying down a great sum of money and guaranteeing him an annual pension as long as peace should endure Edward threw over his ally and greedily closed with the offer by the Treaty of pecking e 13th of August 1475 he received 75,000 gold crowns and ready money 50,000 more as a ransom for the unfortunate Margaret of Anjou and guarantees for the payment of 50,000 pounds per annum as long as he should live he at once retired from France and for the rest of his life was paid the subsidy with great regularity the main anxiety of Edward during these years arose from the discontent of his brother George of Clarence the treachery of the Duke in the years fourteen 69 and 70 could never be forgotten and the King always viewed him with suspicion Clarence did his best to justify these doubts his behavior was captious insolent and overbearing in 1477 he provoked Edward to great wrath by putting to death on his own authority and without a proper trial a lady named incorrect Windell whom he accused of having caused by sorcery the death of his wife the Duchess Isabel on another occasion he tried to marry Margaret the heiress of Burgundy without Edwards leave in 1478 the brothers had a violent quarrel about the arrest and execution of some of Clarence's followers for treason it ended in the Dukes being sent to the tower soon after Edward called together a parliament and accused his brother in person before the peers Clarence was he said incorrigible and he would not be answerable for the wheel public peace and tranquility of the realm if such loathly offences should be pardoned the lords could do no less than find the accused guilty when the King acted as prosecutor a fortnight later of false fleeting perjured Clarence was put to death in the tower a tradition dating back to the very year of his execution declares that he was drowned in a but of momsie wine but nothing is really known of the details of his end Edward survived his brother for five years his health was steadily growing worse but he made no attempt to break himself of his evil habits and as he became less fit for business handed over much of the conduct of affairs to his youngest brother Richard Duke of Gloucester and his Chamberlain Lord Hastings the two faithful partisans who had never shrunk from his side and all the troubles of the evil days in 1469 through 71 the last important event in the rain was a short war with Scotland and 1482 caused partly by the raids of the moss troopers of the border into Northumberland partly by the intrigues of the exiled Duke of Albany who stirred up England against his brother James the third for his own private ends Gloucester held the command since the king was too ill to take the field and distinguished himself by retaking barrack which had been held by the Scots since margaret of anjou made it over to them in 1461 he ravaged the lowland still the Scottish King sued for peace but the negotiations were still unfinished when news came that King Edward was dead though only in his 42nd year his Constitution was worn out and he succumbed to an attack of a goo of no special virulence March 30th 1483 thoroughly selfish cruel and the botched he was one of the worst men who have sat on the English throne but it cannot be said that he was an inefficient ruler the country was not unprosperous under his hand in spite of all the wars and rumors of wars which had passed over it the nobles and their retainers had been thinned by the sword and axe but the storm had passed far above the heads of the majority of the nation taxation was light trade and commerce were not on prosperous England in short has seen much worse days under much better

3Hr-QAjmVwE | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Hr-QAjmVwE | Attrition warfare | Wikipedia audio article | attrition warfare is a military strategy consisting of belligerent attempts to win a war by wearing down the enemy to the point of collapse through continuous losses in personnel and material the war will usually be won by the side with greater such resources the word attrition comes from the Latin root a dreary to rub against similar to the grinding down of the opponent's forces in attrition warfare topic strategic considerations military theorists and strategists have viewed attrition warfare as something to be avoided attrition warfare represents an attempt to grind down an opponent in its superior numbers which is the opposite of the usual principles of war in which one attempts to achieve decisive victories by using minimal necessary resources and in minimal amount of time through manoeuvre concentration of force surprise and the like on the other hand a side that perceives itself to be at a marked disadvantage in maneuver warfare or unit tactics may deliberately seek out attrition warfare to neutralize its opponent's advantages if the sides are nearly evenly matched the outcome of a war of attrition is likely to be a Pyrrhic victory the difference between war of attrition and other forms of war as somewhat artificial since war always contains an element of attrition one can be said to pursue a strategy of attrition if one makes it the main goal to cause gradual attrition to the opponent eventually amounting to unacceptable or unsustainable levels for the opponent while limiting one's own gradual losses to acceptable and sustainable levels that should be seen as opposed to other main goals such as the conquest of some resource or territory or an attempt to cause the enemy great losses in a single stroke such as by encirclement in capture historically attritional methods are tried only as a last resort when other methods have failed or are obviously not feasible typically when nutritional methods have worn down the enemy sufficiently to make other methods feasible attritional methods are abandoned in favour of other strategies in World War one improvements in firepower but not communications and mobility forced military commanders to rely on attrition with terrible casualties attritional methods are in themselves usually sufficient to cause a nation to give up an on vital ambition but other methods are generally necessary to achieve unconditional surrender topic history it is often argued that the best known example of attrition warfare was on the Western Front during World War one both military forces found themselves in static defensive positions in trenches running from Switzerland to the English Channel for years without any opportunity for maneuvers the only way the commander's thought that they could defeat the enemy was to repeatedly attack head-on and grind the other down one of the most enduring examples of attrition warfare on the Western Front as the Battle of Verdun which took place throughout most of 1916 Erich von Falkenhayn later claimed that his tactics at Verdun were designed not to take the city but rather to destroy the French army in its defense Falkenhayn is described as wanting to bleed France white and thus the attrition tactics were employed in the battle attritional warfare in World War one has been shown by historians such as Hugh stron to have been used as a post hoc ergo propter hoc excuse for failed offensives contemporary sources disagree with Stratton's view on this while the Christmas memorandum is a post-war invention the strategy of bleeding France white was the original strategy for the battle attrition to the enemy was easy to assert and difficult to refute and thus may have been a convenient face-saving excuse in the wake of many indecisive battles it is in many cases hard to see the logic of warfare by attrition because of the obvious uncertainty of the level of damage to the enemy and of the damage that the attacking force may sustain to its own limited and expensive resources while trying to achieve that damage historians such as John terrain and Gary Sheffield have suggested that attritional warfare was however a necessary step on the road to eventual victory a wearing down process that sapped Central Powers strength and left them vulnerable during the hundred days campaign of 1918 that is not to say that a general will not be prepared to sustain high casualties while trying to reach an objective an example in which one side used attrition warfare to neutralize the other side's advantage in maneuverability and unit tactics occurred during the latter part of the American Civil War when Union General Ulysses S Grant pushed the Confederate Army continually in spite of losses he correctly predicted that the Union supplies and manpower would overwhelm the Confederacy even if the casualty was unfavorable topic other examples

3-1J4ARKZwk | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-1J4ARKZwk | Adaptation to Arctic change – Svein Mathiesen с русскими субтитрами | [Music] in the Arctic changes are going on with big speed 24 different ethnic groups of reindeer herders are living in Arctic and we are question will the culture or reindeer husbandry survive this artic I'm Sven moccasin and I'm professor at the Union Neff of the University here in Yakutsk I'm an expert on adaptation to change in the Arctic what we see now in the Arctic in the circumpolar Arctic is huge changes not only climate changes but also social economic changes which effects reindeer husbandry those changes are driven by the global changes we work with different perspectives all those changes in the circumpolar north reindeer herders affected by those changes lives in Norway Sweden Finland and all the Russian Arctic all the way from Murmansk to Chukotka 24 different peoples are living and has been living in the Arctic for a long time maybe ten thousand years I think that's the history of Arctic civilization reindeer husbandry is at least thousand years so places like in your mouth Peninsula 2,000 years old so actually we talk about an Arctic civilization with knowledge with the way of adapting to changes very rich in knowledge and culture languages we talk about 24 different languages and the language actually expressed the knowledge for example in the Sami language at home in Norway reindeer herders have more than 300 words for snow and snow change similar the avian reindeer herders and a reindeer reindeer herders in Republic of Sakha Kota has a lot of knowledge about snow and snow change in Norway mind mean average winter temperature is minus 14 while in Sakura Kuja the mean average temperature is minus 43 mean average temperature in December January and February 43 degrees I used to call sakuya the fourth pole you have the North Pole the South Pole Himalaya and then you have soccer culture so you're actually Sakura Kucha is the coldest place where actually you have a civilization permanent civilization that means the knowledge about climate that cold climate is very rich in Sakura culture here in Sakai Cuccia you have the reindeer herders that indigenous reindeer herders with a unique knowledge about the cold you have the Evenki event yoga gear chip tree and organ people all working with reindeer in the tundra in the far north and in the south of circle kuta in the taiga every day with the reindeer with we used to say that reindeer husbandry is a human coupled ecosystem even it's in the tundra or actually is in the taiga you know and that coupled system maintain the knowledge about a cold sakuya is about six times the territory of all France two hundred thousand reindeer is living here climate change in soccer culture will a course be different from where I'm coming from in Norway in the Sami area climate change will affect the pastures in Norway quite severe because in winter we get closer to zero degrees why since I said the the Sakuya is the fourth pole it's very cold in winter even eight degrees eight degree increase in winter temperature will have minor influence in the middle of the winter in northern Sakura Cuccia middle of circuit are in the south but still we see that the spring comes earlier what is the problem of climate change in the circle T on the reindeer husbandry is mainly early flock flooding the melting of the snow it's actually the the forest fires so flooding and forest fires is actually a big problem in soccer culture not increased temperature in the middle of the winter and we know the problem about the wolf wolf is a huge problem for reindeer husbandry in Osaka culture taiga region in southern circuit is may be the most interesting topic for scientific discussion because the taiga so people says ask actually the taiga is disappearing the people and the nature are disappearing in China Mongolia Buryatia our mood south and Sakia kuta so we should be in particular concern about the taiga and the people living in the taiga regions and of course the reindeer has been those changes happening there is of global nature course climate but the global nature means industrial development the robes development takes place all over the Arctic also in Norway in Norway the Sami reindeer husbandry has suffered from a lot of loss of grazing land adaptation to these changes that's the most important thing then we talk about the solutions how are we going to survive with all these changes I'm very optimistic I came here first time in 1992 sucker Kunta it was Soviet Union and I went to the variants keg aura and I met very knowledge which people I'm very optimistic because in the summer Society in Norway in the event an event key society in soccer kuta there is a very deep knowledge about nature about the biology about the reindeer about the traditional knowledge we call it and I believe that we could use that traditional knowledge to further develop the society yes you will have people in northern circuit culture you will have people in the taiga regions in the future but then we have to allow people to use their own knowledge it's very rich and it's very good you could use it for the nature management like protected areas but you could use it also for business development the food culture of Sakai kutia is unique and we should use that to a large extent when we are developing the society we as as professors at the university help to make sure that that knowledge that traditional knowledge we find in the indigenous peoples culture of Tsukuba should be used the programs at the University we have to train future leaders of the Arctic we have to make new programs for the leaders of the Arctic where we include this traditional knowledge so business and management is better than we have today that's a challenge but I think that's very optimistically because we meet a lot of young people in the our area in the Sami area in in the West but also here on in the fourth Pole where it's cold but where you have a civilization for so long time the knowledge on Sakai Cuccia and the indigenous people of Sakai kutia should be kind of built into the future generations to manage the Arctic in a better way so I'm optimistic we should work together we should cooperate together then the future of the Arctic looks very good I believe that by a systematic training of the future students by using this traditional knowledge we will see a different future we will see small business development and we will see a better management of the nature for example today is very difficult to find the reindeer meat in the restaurants in your coops and in my town rooms in Norway so reindeer meat it has a huge potential for small business development and it's good for you it's healthy and it has potential for economic development as I said so we made the last year a cookbook a cookbook where the different recipes by using reindeer meat from Sakai Kuja is used that cookbook was delivered to the minister's ort Council last year in May and a lot of young people students from Sarkoja koteas participated making it a cookbook it's actually not an ordinary cookbook but it's a cookbook about sustainability how to adapt to the changes I'm talking about and actually how to sustain your society is a unique book and I tell you the book was nominated to the four prizes although we could call it the oscars of the cookbook and by May this year we will know if our cookbook about the Arctic indigenous peoples food culture will have a prize in the good name and international cookbook prize in China that's a new thing that we are actually able to bring the knowledge of indigenous people of Sakai Cuccia into the Arctic Council yes we talked with the minister's or articles all about it and actually we are nominated for a cook international cookbook we will bring that even further I hope cross my fingers that we will win the prop one of the prizes and then we have to say thank you for all those knowledge provided by sarkodie but there is one way further there is one way further that we think that there actually potential of the raw material the reindeer meat the fat the bones the head could be much more utilized than any it is today it could be used for a business development in the small places in sakai kuta we have to make sure that we use the adaptation knowledge the old survival knowledge we have to use that apt a tional is for the future development of the

Bates thank you for joining me for the second time for this series we're talking today is part of the the the plan produce profit series and and talking all about that the third P which is profit and really getting your message to the masses something that you've done done very well so mate thanks for joining us my boys are my pleasure I came to talk today really about you or journey I know that you've done a whole whole bunch of different things but you know it's been a transition you know advisor doing mortgage broking now focusing more on the mortgage broking still a bit of advice can it be private which I'm still a little bit - you know I've got I've got the domain on backorder just in just in case you'd let it slip for it for a little bit now into into wealth full and making to talk about the journey in in how you've got your your message out out there so mate maybe just just run us through the last you know four five issues and like what but the the core sort of progression in terms of how now you you're you know this the superstar that is Chris Bates question just go back five years I mean yeah I mean I started business you got to generate leads or customers and you start with nothing and you look at ways to do that didn't really get too excited about you know trying to go out and build professional partners and started reading about content marketing and that was probably the start of the business about five years ago now and then it was blogging and then it was kind of that didn't really work and then went short snippets on LinkedIn mainly then last year eighteen months ago probably now crazy start a podcast and then now we're going to kind of try these and videos and they're kind of working a little bit so yes and then I mean I guess through that journey is yeah I guess it just creates more awareness and I enjoy it yeah it's an interesting that the the business of financial advice I find generally is like an experiment right like every person's different you can tweak one little part of what you do and then it drives a slightly different result and you know if it's if it's a positive result then you do more of it if it's a negative result then you do less of it yeah business is the same that you do the thing that the land of marketing I think on it on its own is it's exactly the same that you do you know where we and this is admittedly this is and time I having this conversation but you do some stuff and he you know it doesn't get the responses that you want you tweak it slightly pivot different Channel different message different approach and then you know if you committed to following it through that then you you know you can pivot and pivot and pivot until you you know get some good stuff up me yeah you love the word pivot don't you hit it and hit yeah and pivot that's a yes I mean it's it's kind of true I think I didn't really could see I couldn't foresee how writing a blog would lead to a customer and you know until I went through that experience and a customer resets the website says read your blog want to chat to you all right all right so I've just turned that's that effort was actually rewards and then when you start to see that happening quite regularly like this is working and then right I'm gonna double down on this because this is actually going to drive my business and that's pretty much what did and that's kind of my only soul way of getting business probably was true LinkedIn and then off the back of client referrals because you get you're building a client base and then also referral partners would refer where they've now built up enough trust that they staying consistent authentic to my message and now they're thinking actually I wouldn't mind sending my clients there as well so that was kind of there's been lots of different things media what's different things have popped out off the back of just producing content for sure and I think yet one thing leads to the leads to the next thing and you know some of the things are good some of them don't don't work so well but um tell me like so you cuz you where you started I feel like getting a lot of traction was really on the LinkedIn channel you started doing you told me last time you started doing some longer longer form stuff and then that's eventually transition tell me about that you know how it got started some of the results and and how you should how you changed or how you evolved over that so I start the business you know that was probably a little bit of I was a bit of a damaged advisor I've seen too many no you're like yes didn't agree with you know first for three years in the UK and UK banks source or retail advice at its worst I saw some in independent advice in the UK which wasn't great I sought advice it you know certain practices and in Australia there wasn't happy week when I guess when I started the business I was like I want to do it my way a better way you know till really else is evil yeah my way I'm ginger yeah that's it and that that was kinda not working right which wouldn't you know you look back on it now and you think that's not going to work but well it might he got you a lot of attention I still remember I was looking through the photos the old XY photos and from the modern adviser event and mate when you you you did your presentation and the first slide was just like all red no Commission in in big bold letters on the on the screen and yeah I think I think you probably 90% of the room hated you the other 10% was just like is this guy serious and yeah I think that you know that there weren't many people vocally out there really shouting down the the way that things had been done and and the the results that that had actually led to in some cases in the past this it probably would have been about the time of the faux-fur reforms before the before all of the stuff with the LIF and yeah the assic review into the insurance industry as well and yeah I think like you know you were out there banging the drum and it it you know well I don't want to I don't know put words in your mouth but it generated a lot of attention a lot of attention from advisers a lot of attention from the media I think they liked it a lot of attention from those from from the old codgers with too much time on their hands that sit there just trolling the IFA comment section of the thing but made anyone anyone listening I would highly encourage you to look up the archives of the IFA and check out some of those things that some of them were 100 $130 suppose just just yeah I mean you think you can change or you think you can you feel like there's a better way all you feel like the industry needs to move forward and then you go to an event and the rooms full of gray hair and people who want to keep doing what they've done for last 20 years you can only go to so many events till you realize that it's not going to change you can't change it so kind of just go be happy with what you're doing and just focus on what you want to do and your little journey and that's when I just kind of switched it was kind of almost like a a day thing I just switched and said well that's that's done now said what I need to say I'm just going to do it my way now and I just started posting on content that you know made it all positive it talks about well-being talked about things that I'm passionate about things and just see how that goes and then that's when it's kind of all kind of shifted and to be honest I haven't really kind of gone back into that world because you know I don't know more mellow in your old age yeah exactly and so but the comment you did get a lot of attention with with some of the linked LinkedIn content especially some of the property obviously you know you've got a very strong like a big part probably the main part now of your businesses around mortgage broking yeah and the property planning piece and some of the things like the articles that you put in on LinkedIn we're getting a crazy amount of traction what made you change what made you change the tone of things when you are getting that much attention so the properties are big it's it's you know it is a big discussion it's kind of this Australia's favorite past time to talk about it right so it is a very topical thing I'm not getting people to talk about something that that's not that I'm talking about anyway right so and then when I said look I'm not gonna stop stop working with kind of holder clients you know it's all 30s 40s couples families no clients in their 50s you know passed on clients that were in their 50s - other advisers and just said look that's it I at that point just said well what's their biggest problem property I just said I'm just going to double down on becoming the expert or a trusted advisor in that space there's not really many out there and I'm just gonna post a lot about property and filter it with lots of other things around the site other sides so it doesn't get too but I want to keep talking there and to be honest the good thing about content is you know some posters everyday is you know has to be a bit off center it has to be a little bit challenging and a bit confrontational or a little bit you know making someone think otherwise it's not content it's just news reading it's just reporting it's just yes it has to actually be something that's directing a conversation in a certain way and the good thing about property is all it's so heavily unregulated and there's so much miss selling of products is it's very easy to call out and its end and so what I was doing is calling it out and that would get a lot of traction because you would get you know off the plant sellers house and land packages developers all these people who are heavily conflicted and doing the wrong thing would want to defend their turf and I'll be like well no it's not right we're doing you know these are the reasons why yeah exactly and all and they and I it's it's not ignorant as bliss to be honest I don't think they you know they don't know what they're doing they do know what they're doing and that's and you know people would say they're trying to make money to feed their families and he's like what I thought you can do something else rather than you know stitch people's financial futures up so sure I've seen too many people that have you know got really results and and effort for an extended period of time you know for properties one of those things that you buy a bad one it's expensive to buy it's expensive to sell you don't want to lose money so it ends up being just years of pain and you know mediocre results as well as stopping you from actually doing something else like buying a good property or or doing investing or this is tine of you cash flow all of the things so okay so you've got this you you you you know sort of plugging away long-form content LinkedIn and you and so you change to the to these posts that were just like you just basically fill up the like do a little blog or like do a blog a short blog put it into the thing tidied up I remember we had this chat a little while back and and then you were you it was more positive in nature but also less combative but but I think that when we spoke and I can still remember a little coffee we had up at up at mlc there back at the time that you thought when you first kicked off well for and it was really you were doing you were doing some property and then you were doing a second when you were committed you you know do every day that was like one was property one was like life or like psychology or well-being or you know that the stuff that sits around the finances that that impacts that so was that the same time that you transitioned but like did it line up evenly with transitioning from the canopy the independent financial advice and and like the the more combative stance to the more positive state wasn't the same or is it similar I think I changed my content first and then I realized that canopy private I know you have that name does not suit yet support you know there's that there's the you can just walk the tightrope and the canopies there it's like I don't you change that's alright it's a Authority so but no but I realized that that title that positioning that brand wasn't really what the direction that I wanted to go in and then I started bring so I mean that's when wealth who came up and then you know at that time I was chatting to Lucia del actually shed Italy and you know our view at the time was that advice was going to shift to more well-being focused to more mindful sort of you know lifestyle sort of balance you know responsible investing you know this is kind of the next transition for advice and so the next pivot Eamonn yeah that's what we thought it was going to go into and so that's when I changed we were going to potentially try to attract other advisors at that point in time to go after this yeah and yeah and that's that's kind of and that's what I kind of you know just went forward I guess in terms of that direction and what was the learning from that from the like like in terms of that transition because you still I remember like when you first kicked off those this the long short form content on so just post that will like many blogs you're getting some crazy traction through there and that I feel like that was sort of around the time that your business really started to get very well right yeah I mean that the the learning in terms of the rebrand was I don't think when I started the business I went you know I didn't have the confidence to go what up what I what I really wanted but that was younger clients mm-hmm and so you know I still wanted that you know 50 60 year old sort of client that I still want to work with younger clients and that was a conflicted you know I wasn't gonna that's going to sell me in two different directions so that the learning out of that was that just building the confidence and going for what I wanted probably should've done it from the start but it's hard to do that when you start yes just really go for a market I mean the the learning through content was just you know was working so just keep doing it that's kind of the just stay consistent stay authentic you know don't just post stuff that for the sake of it because I did that a couple of times and those those posts wouldn't get zero traction yeah I was actually brain damaged so I would just delete the post you know I have to have you know maybe four or five hundred views if there's no likes or it's not hitting there must be a reason for that maybe it's boring maybe it's badly worded maybe it's just not valuable maybe it's self-promotion just delete it and lots of little learnings across the the way sure and so how do you like if you think back to that time how do you manage to stay consistent in like Ian in the approach and go for it cuz I think that's the challenge for a lot of advisors that you you know like it's great you can do all of these things you can do social media you can do the blogs you can do the posts you can do the videos you can do all the things but it's hard to actually build them into a way where you get and I know that I tend to do that to a degree as well you do a bunch of stuff and then the stuff gets results you get busy then then you stop doing the stuff but you managed to make it keep it very consistent for a fairly extended period of time how did you go about sort of building that into you your business is a systemized thing or I guess I just put a value on it because that's what was driving the business so if I knew if I just stopped turning the tap on then new clients wouldn't come right and so that was my number one leads or so I knew you know back down from not posting that's not gonna get the business in the direction that I wanted to so I had a real big motivation to do that and and I was only doing one thing and that's the thing I was only doing LinkedIn post I'm not doing Facebook posts not doing Instagram I'm not doing videos at this stage I wasn't doing a podcast and so that's and then the podcast was such a big effort as well to get going and now it's easy so now we just record you know two half days a month and that's it that's all I do and then it goes out and everything else is kind of done so you know that to me is not a big drag anymore in other videos at one day a month now as well and that's not a big drag so it's kind of just ya know what nails one thing at a time yeah that's that's what it is you know I found that I when I started the business I got distracted with a lot of that stuff that you're trying to do Twitter and Instagram and Facebook and the ads and you know all the things but I don't think you can give what could give any one thing the attention enough to you know make it good make it systemized and make it land and actually engage because I think that for that one of the things that I found and I wish that this wasn't the case but unfortunately it is is that really to do content to do really engaging content you've got to engage with people like you've got to you've got to engage with people with the content and you know I think to to respond to people and to to get in there to - actually yeah I I think that people especially you end up in a book where people are following an eye an idea or ideals that they need that I I think that I think it's it makes it easier to get the traction when you've got the person or the people that are supporting the the ideas behind it you do a little bit of a tribe and then that tribal naturally defend you and will will be you know the ones that you know the groupies that will probably always like and so if you do create that mainly that's through just producing consistent content that they're liking and they're following and they're looking out for then yeah I guess that's you know you need to have that otherwise but you got to build it so you just gotta keep going from either yeah exactly what do you reckon so we talked about a few things you know being consistent having your message being a bit off-center and engaging what do you think is the most important thing that you need to get right to be successful in in getting a message that actually gets cut through and and and builds traction you just got to have to be very clear on who you're trying to help and be on the right platform for them so I mean who I want is kind of professionals 30s 40s switched on you know self educating kind of people where they're going to get digest content well that's probably LinkedIn and so I just and I don't really want to pick up points in there 50 60 I don't want to you know I'm just thinking about producing content for them and it just makes much easier so if you try and producers contact for everyone you know not gonna get any cut through yes I guess it's just really picking your market and just picking where they are and just consistently trying to dish out content for them and after a while hopefully you know they start rooting right and what do you reckon what's the the main thing that people get get wrong if it is you know different to that when it when it comes to because obviously everyone's out there like everyone knows it all you do this and you see people who getting you know a bunch of success from from driving content but that you know obviously not if not everyone's doing it well what do you think what do you think the main mistake that people make is that when they try to go down this path it's not about you it's not about your brand it's not about you getting something by producing content you're actually just trying to produce content that's other people will find valuable and that's it like there's no call to action there's no I've got this right you should come see me there's no I'm really good at giving insurance advice you should come see me or I know what the best super fund is come see me you know like the as soon as you do that you've been doing selling yes that's not content that's selling that's marketing and so you know you actually lose trust that way people will actually unfollow you they won't read what you write so the other thing is just being consistent and giving your time like the reality is you do a pose you're not gonna get any clients it's not - you do 150 posts yeah till you get clients so you've just got to be committed to the end result and just know that it'll come and you got to find enjoyable like actually producing content or writing something that you it actually is quite fun I think I think it's quite fun to articulate your thoughts think something through check validate your research because you've got to be careful that if you write something that's not true or that can be pulled apart there's someone there dying to tap away at the keyboard - yeah - find a hole in what you say so you know that's and that's fun to actually think actually know what am i right is my thinking right this is what I believe and so I guess that's the part of the process yeah and so what I like but you you talk about not not having like a call to action or not not selling selling but I think you you can write like you can you can do content is content and marketing is marketing like you can do you can do both I don't think really good marketing will lead to building a massive following but if you've got really good content if you if you put like I know with our stuff we'll put content content content content content and then you go okay I'm doing this event or this here's this this thing that's an offer or something like that like people a lot of people will engage with the content and then they reach out based on the content but you can also doing that doesn't you it's not that you can't like you shouldn't you should never promote anything it's just that you can you don't you shouldn't have a call to action on it on every post that's like you know booked a 15 minute consultation yeah I mean providing an events fine like that's just giving people another way to digest your content mmm at an event so that's that's all good but you know maybe offering a free guide or something that's that's fine but you're just trying to have value but then you know come call me you know I need to speak to you sort of that push just not gonna work I don't think yeah I agree it's one thing that I've found that it can't just be tacky and I think the people know that you just like if you're just always there you're going like you know here's a tax tip here's a property tip he's a mortgage TV user you know how to do these how to do that how to do these how to do that people know that you're running business then you build that relationship build there the the yeah the digital rapport with people and then when it comes time to do the thing that they're they're there and you're you're all you were all like after a period of time I think I find it becomes that you're you're actually the person that they're going to go to it's just they're not going to anyone at right now well that's that time to resent so like you know they'll be soup of I can see I've connected with them alien months ago and they've reached out to me today let's call it yellow and that would have probably been digesting my content 18 months but now's the time when they're ready to go yeah and you know lots of people with advice you know you'll make an inquiry and then they go cold again which I'm sure we've all had you know because it was it did get to number one on the priority list which was finally in a gap in their life and then bang life's taken over again it's gone back down to seven yeah and so you know you can see that with sometimes with new clients so I guess it's yeah you're just trying to be front of mind with it and yeah that's a one-game hmm and so tell us about the the podcast so you know you're plugging away on LinkedIn and it's working what was the what was the thought process behind there how did you go about it because I know you're getting some pretty like big numbers now in terms of the the views and and stuff off the back of it so I know I need to do something else from producing leontyne content I'm probably not the guts to do video I didn't know how wanted to do video and you didn't have to videographers too full you know I tried that one I've got one from the second necessary but you know and then I thought well I've got a bit of an angle here it's probably the co-host it gets a bit boring talking some other person now just give me and no but you haven't have a co-host and yeah and then basically run a you know around property because that's what I want to want to do focus on time in a buyer's agent already knew and then yeah we've we've formulated we didn't actually go ahead cuz we actually had three or four brainstorming meetings where we were let's have a different angle this I said let's get Simon rustling first let's just do an interview with him let's go on the behavioral side see how that goes and then that's when it kind of all kind of came out and we went actually this is where we want to kind of go on it it's just that's where the elephant the room idea came from off that podcast so we didn't actually really even know when we first started and it's been good to suspend it it's it's for me I think it's great networking you know I get to reach out to you know experts and the top of the tree in all different parts of the property market or economics and ask me if they want to come on the show and then you know 30% of them say yes yeah so and then you get to meet four good people every month you know so that's and it does you know if you the good thing is were being quite controversial with the content we are we're not letting any of the new sort of property world impact us and so you know a lot of our lists we're getting quite a good following that are very committed and have learnt lots I mean even today there was a guy that sent me some pretty strong feedback when we were pretty going quite hard on the negative gearing policy and he said yeah this long email the you guys are sounding like you were you know supporting labour and blah blah blah and you know and then he emailed me again today said you're content you know the podcast has got much better I'm loving in the gaming yeah so yeah we've had people will listen obviously every episode is like 90 episodes there well yeah I had Glen James on for this a little while back he obviously does a lot of stuff in the podcast space and I I think it's true a podcast but I think broadcasts probably a bit more personal because you're in you're in people's heads but I think it's partly true of all content and and when you're doing content marketing is a strategy that you can you essentially train people into the into the stuff that you want and if people hate your ideas they just don't engage with your stuff so it's not like you're gonna have someone follow you for a year and then I will follow you stuff for a year and then reach out and and you go oh you know I'm a socialist and I hate negative gearing and then they go oh that's um you know no because they're because they're obviously they're they know what you're they know they in some level they're sort of buying in or they're there in agreeance with your staff so that then they're they're already trained trained quite well as well I noticed it a little bit with some of the video content that I've done and then people you do a call with someone and then they say some of the stuff that you've said anyone yeah oh yeah this is cool like what do you want all your lifestyle balance or a life not limited by money or something they're like oh yeah that's sort of what we do so I think it's a good way to see you you know you you're immediately eliminating the people that are not not going to jail with your with your message and and what you're about so mate tell me you know that obviously it's been a you know a substantial sort of journey what's um is there anything that that you found that worked really well like sort of unexpectedly I mean the podcast is that I mean I didn't when we get inquiries I don't really ask where did you hear from us it was a Google or was it etc but I will always ask on the call you know how did you hear about us and yeah whether it be linked in or the podcast and the podcast ah you know so far down the buying journey or the trust journey that you know it's not even a case of explaining what we do or anything like that they just you know ready to go like you say talking the lingo already they already apologized sometimes which is crazy because and they say look I've already got a poor asset and I did this wrong and I'm like yeah and like you know it's kind of like well you know I mean like they've already kind of like almost trained themselves up on it so that that to me was a huge learning that just how powerful the podcasts words yeah awesome and on the flip side then anything that that you're really expecting to work that didn't mean long-form articles I think you know didn't really work I think but I haven't gone back there and for a few years and maybe you know with a bit more of a following they'll probably make it more trap traction from a Content sort of marketing space I mean yeah I haven't really got him hey any other time done any paid advertising at all so I haven't really got me I'm being burnt haven't got 20 marketing companies and paid two thousand dollars a month for SEO and found out that didn't work or Facebook Ads man in fact that's a time vortex that you just not even just a money thing like you're not wasted a little bit of money not that much like a you know a few thousand bucks over the over the last few years but just the time involved with all those sorts of things and I think that especially in the content marketing space that you can't you know Glenn Jaynes he's probably the only one that's doing it really really well well they're actually no that's that's not true but there are a few people doing a really well but not many but they sell the dream it's so easy to get caught up in the in the digital marketing you know make money in your underwear I don't have to do with anyone just you know do your Facebook ads and sell your online course and and do it but I find that for a lot of service businesses it's it's really you know that there's a course the core of your business is a service right so I it's it's there's there's always going to be a jump between a you know a fifty dollar online course and then a massive you know like helping people buy a million dollar property helping people create a financial plan for the rest their life and spending you know thousands of dollars on on doing that that I think yeah it's easy if you get too swept up in and I know that this definitely happened to me that you try and create all these you know training programs and I wasted all this time Facebook advertising and never got any results whereas if you just mind you know find their channel where people are and you can do it natively you know the LinkedIn is obviously a good one or I know a lot of people there's a success on Instagram or Facebook Jason Glen and who we had on the right side of the series have done really well with giving you know getting traction on their Facebook and stuff that you don't need to do that and I think you got to do the right the right thing at the wrong time is also the wrong thing when you got like you know you got 50 people that are underneath you and then maybe there's more of a you know the resources to support that but yeah I think that it's it is easy to burn a heap of time doing the something that's a decent idea but just at the wrong time and not in the way that needs to be to actually drive results yeah I think that's hard is it a small business owner when you've got limited time and that's your number one resource to grow the business you know I remember I looked at so many different like shiny object syndrome with tech you know how can i systemize my business but it's just me that's might build a process for myself like ah you know and I would look at all the latest tech and you know CRM and digital signing tools and you know I'd get excited by all that but you know I was wasting time you know and you know even thinking about where the future of advice was like you know we'd spend a lot of time researching Robo advice digital advice tools what's happening overseas I mean I've got a lot of knowledge there now that you know a lot of that stuff's not something to be worried about that they're actually building it for advisors as well and it's you know it's good to have that but you know it was probably a lot of wasted time as well because you know it's yeah it's not something that's now it's it's a thing that you can confront when it's there and there's so many it's like you know with clients I think that you help them think about think through problems and you find that there are some clients and they get so caught up trying to think about the next step in the next step and the step after that then they paralyzes them from making a decision now sometimes you just gotta yeah let's let's be clear on what the next step use and probably think it one or two steps ahead of that to make sure you're not shooting yourself in the foot but really like the pondering the you know 2050 that it's probably not gonna be a positive impact on your business right now yeah I thought was probably another part in my early years of advice I would try to build these beautiful plans and forecasts and spreadsheets and you buy this then and you sell that then and you I mean like it's I just you know the whole kind of cash flow really it's doing a 30 year plan for someone like you know I don't think it really works as you know I think that just like you say just focusing on what you can do with the next three years is a much better mindset and making people make smaller but you know bigger but much more deliberate steps is you know what a good as it does yeah for sure I think it's like you like I just did a review this this this morning with it with the client and we've been working together for three and a half years and every time we do the review things are a little different like the the in terms of what she wants to do because she's changing the world's changing technology's changing her jobs changing what she thinks in the future is changing her relationships with other people are changing as well so it's you know you you definitely want to be thinking a step ahead yeah but also like you know what the next step is but then really you just have to be you know have the flexibility and go well making sure that that step is for her and I'm like you know she wants to buy a tiny house I'm like well you buy a tiny house that's cool but it's gonna potentially that's going to stop you like you could do that now you could go buy you know a little block of land and get your little tiny house and tiny tiny house and then put it put it on there but if you decide that you want to buy an investment property then it's potentially it's gonna limit you're gonna have to save up you know yeah a much bigger deposit then for your because it's impacting your borrowing capacity so you don't know ignore the stuff but also you just like do you always deal with the next thing and then wait until the world changes so that you can think about what the thing that's important to you after that that's what introduces a river ride rip a ride yeah what's that like the air B&B for camping well that's what I said to her air B&B I didn't have provided a skit mate tell me if you uh thank you to rip right to much time troll in the infinitely so tell me if you would go back to the start and clean slate what would you do differently I probably just went for the one market that I wanted to work with first I felt like for the first 18 months in it I was kind of drowning all the challenges of studying business limited cash you know limited clients didn't know what I didn't know and probably for the first two years was kind of torn between one trying to build a fee for service kind of bigger advise practice or two kind of work with younger people and so if I could get back in there and I would have probably just went for working with younger people and had the model I've got now around a lot of its around is mortgage broking yeah that's what I've order done you know yeah and what have you got what's next on the horizon any you know from a from a from a like a marketing from a confirming you know building the building a tribe further side of things ah so the next things video newsletters so every week a video will go out to clients basically documenting everything that I've laid this week that I think you need to know mm-hmm and then I'll go out for you know every week to as many followers I can kind of get on that and yes that's that's probably the next thing but the video isn't you know did another twelve twelve one Friday I haven't obviously got the email just there we just can see how they come out so you hopefully do videos every month to keep doing the podcast keep doing posts and then yeah might be have a new business partner as well that would come on and yeah he's begun in other social like Facebook and Instagram and oh yeah and so a mortgage broker yeah so can we play hangman with the name yeah and so yeah and that could that would be good cuz that would open up man come on you can't leave me hanging like this yeah so I mean that's just as as a you know like because it you're always kind of working on these things so that's something that could open up or expand the brain quite massively sure okay well we'll have to save that one for the next podcast to see my since there we go mate mr. Bates thank you very much we've got the blink list version I think today because we we did it we did for Ashley's have an extended chatter just last week but make before we go a couple of quick ones for you what's biggest biggest oops moment or stuff up ah you would and it's kind of happening a little bit now which is quite frustrating is when the business is not delivering on the service proposition just through growth and not being able to you know turn around you know clients in timeframes that I think are respectable and yeah there was probably a few times over the last five years where it all just got to be too much and yeah and not wasn't delivering basically and I feel like there's a whole kind of self-sabotage thing that starts to happen and you know it gets stressed and burnout except like that so I'd say there's been a few moments in the business so that's happened and it's kind of happening again now I would just got ridiculous and out of work especially because the property market is kind of changing and people are wanting to buy and wanting to move and urgencies there and it's trying to get you know things through the river so I guess the results mater's it's just been better managing those those challenging times yeah it's an interesting one that you you know you push hard and harder you know as a small business owner especially when you're in that in the you know when you've got a smaller team and you you know you pushing pushing pushing trying to get the work and then it's like they say that you should hire six months ahead of of when you should but who's gonna do that when you're but you know you're you're paying the wages for for six months waiting for the business to come then it's sort of this catch-22 and I know I've been there we are there the same thing that you've got it and then you got it furiously sort of backfield team process systems ite all the things that that it's definitely a challenge so mate when you crack that code just just let me know that keeps on getting bigger and bigger problem best piece of advice you've ever received it's probably just you're on your own journey you know you only answer to yourself that's sort of belief or you know thought process I think you know I guess I just I just think that's really it really I don't think you really should worry too much about anyone else really you know if you're happy with yourself and how you're treating the world and what you're doing that's enough and so I feel like I you know especially in the style of business as well I think anyone's any profession there's a lot of pressure from work or don't work family friends partner society industry yourself imagine elf yeah and you know end of the day that all wasn't really matter you just your hands to yourself so I think that's the best advice I've got my wise wise words there last one what's your spirit animal last time I said panda bear so I probably should say the same yeah okay why no sorries love panda bears this kid [Laughter] well mr.

CBDB7v5A3ig | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBDB7v5A3ig | Manhunt Survival 1 - Street Furniture - Laurence Plays GTA V | hello everyone and welcome to lawrence plays and we're doing something a bit different today in um in in gta 5 we're playing a survival mode which is still based around the um the circle of of navigation that the uh the hunters have been using in the past but this time instead of the um circle instead of me having to go off and get checkpoints i have to uh just survive for a certain amount of time and the amount of time is a little bit vague because it depends on what i it depends quite quite a lot on what i'm driving so the the circle will gradually shrinks over time as it does in um in in the checkpoint modes but now i have to survive in the game until the circle gets down to 100 meters so at the moment it's at 480 there's quite a long way to go yet so this is going to take it's going to take a little while but instead of having to try and find checkpoints i simply have to try and avoid the hunters for the um for the amount of time until until until the circle shrinks as i said there seems to be some shenanigans going on at the moment with some of the ai cars there's an oracle there behaving very strangely so the hunters are as usual so they're they're out trying to hunt me they've got their um their coupes to hoon around the city and try and uh to try and find me and they've got their their basic they're very very slow single shot weapons and um and and and i think they also get the normal pistol these days because there was a bit of it just it was decided that the normal uh the the really slow single shot weapons were a bit too bad so they had a little bit of an upgrade but then they've got the circle to to help them work out where i am and i believe i'm not 100 certain today because we had some a little bit of confusion when we're trying to get the game started but i believe the circle is based on the um the elastic band method today so it's drifting around around the city but it's sort of tied to me by an elastic band so it'll ping close to me eventually and it'll generally try and stay reasonably close to me and there's an oracle in the junction then there's a whatever that is a washington i think in the junction yes so the hunters can use that to try and find me so it allows them to work out that i'm sort of in a certain area of the city at the moment it's an area it's about as you can see it's it's um i think i believe that's a radius not diameter so it's 400 and just about 900 meters across and they know that i'm somewhere in that circle but they don't know where so there's a bit of an area for them to search and if i drive around subtly enough hopefully they won't be able to they won't work out which car is me which and uh therefore they won't attack me now i'm going to just sort of loop around the shopping center a little bit here because my hope is that if i loop around a bit that it'll make it if i stay in a sort of a similar area maybe i won't be so obvious i i don't know if there's any truth in that maybe i should actually just be heading across the city and just trying to keep keep moving and going in a straight line i don't really know i do know that if i get onto a motorway and then start doing motorway speeds in that sort of direction they'll work out pretty quickly that well i'm on the motorway there'll be a lot of cars doing that though so it'll be tricky for them to work out exactly which one is me so that could be quite a good tactic we'll have to see how it goes look there's there's tristan down there at the halfway down the hill at the entrance to the shopping center there's a green light i better start moving that's an opportunity to get away from him a little bit if i head off this way there's pete um okay he's turning around he looks like he's trying to follow me only has gone past okay that's all right then so they know yeah they know that i'm in this general area but the hope is that if i keep if the ai keep driving badly enough they'll they'll um not not not twig on me um and yeah so with any luck i'll be able to stay reasonably hidden for the whole time now my plan is to just try and try and just drive around obeying the traffic claws there are a few subtleties to this game like um as i was saying earlier depending on what car i drive um it affects the speed the circle shrinks at so i could take i could take that sports car over there that banshee that's perfectly legitimate i'm allowed to do that if i want but if i do then the circle will start to shrink at an incredibly slow speed on the flip side if i switch to a van then the circle will start to shrink up quite a bit faster so it gives me that will give me a um a bit of an advantage there however i would be in a terrible terrible vehicle and therefore i would um it would it would be difficult for me if we did get into a chase um i i did deliberately sound quite interested when when the game mode was being explained earlier i sounded quite interested about the uh the vans so maybe they're going to think that's the other tactic i'm going to go for we shall we shall see but yeah the coupe class which is what i'm in at the moment is sort of the is is the middle of the road thing so there's no modifiers for faster or slower circle shrinkage with this cut for these cars but it's the best car of that sort of that sort of class [Music] now we haven't actually specified but i'm choosing to believe that i have to stay in the city um if i'm chased and i happen and out of the city seems like a good way to flee then sure i'll i'll leave the city that that's okay but while i'm incognito i'm going to stay in the inside sort of the general city area because so we haven't discussed it but every other game mode we've played we've decided we've treated the city as the limits for the game mode effectively and for the checkpoint ones it doesn't really matter because the um the this all the checkpoints are in the city so there's if whilst i can leave could leave it if i wanted to it wouldn't do me any good i'd i'd um i wouldn't be able to get any of the checkpoints so again i could flee out of the city if i wanted to while i was being chased but there's not really any point because i would have to come straight back in again in order to get the checkpoints all right i'm moving a little bit further away from the start point which i think is probably a good idea it's it's probably worth moving around the city a little bit i don't really know we because we haven't played this mode before i'm i'm making up the tactics as i go along pretty much um i do think that trying to trying to stay away from the hunters is obviously going to be a good idea so i'm trying to stay on the slightly smaller road not going on the um the major boulevards around the city just simply because i think there's less likely to be traffic there i i don't know how accurate that is i am expecting once the circle gets down to i don't know i don't know what size but once as it starts to get smaller i'm expecting it to get harder and harder for me to hide and therefore the thing for this whole thing to turn into a chase but how what that point will be i don't know so it is going to get easier and easier for them to find me um in the moment i think we started off at 500 meters we're now down to about 400 meters so i've still got quite a big area to play in without being without being spotted without sort of quite a big area to play in that they and that they don't know where i i am inside of it yes that's some good english there lawrence well done 390 meters perhaps the tactic for this would actually be if i had an idea of what point it got really hard to hide the best tactic would be to switch over to say a van for the first until it gets down to maybe 200 meters so to get that that faster shrinkage and then once it gets down to that sort of size then it would be time to switch to a um to something a bit faster now there's some big roads down there so i'm not going to go that way i'm going to turn right here and just head sort of around in the where am i this is the richmond hills i think um i'm not sure now technically yes i could pull into a car park or something like that and just hide there um that's not on though i mean i'm not gonna do that that's obviously cheating it's it's and it's it'll be it'd make for a boring a boring run for me it'd make a boring game for everybody involved and it would make for a boring video for you guys as well so i'm not going to do that i'm going to keep moving and driving around the city basically pretending doing my best to pretend to be a normal ai and just keeping an eye out for the hunters now we did see them a couple of times over by the shopping centre so they they're i know they're around somewhere but at the moment it is very very quiet i'm in this lane i better go this way i think i took that reasonably reasonably well we'll sneak in a right turn here because i don't really want to head back to the shopping center i feel that's a bad way to go now i am heading down towards five ways here and that's what that's that's a big junction and we call it five ways because there's five exits from the junction um so i don't it's not it's not the ideal place to be when you're trying to avoid all the major roads however it's very quiet i think i'll carry on this way and if i get if i then go south of the highway and start cruising around down there that keeps me moving it keeps it keeps things changing it keeps things different and interesting so i think that's probably worth doing maybe at some point i should think about putting my roof up as well because i think ai cars tend to have the roof up at night um someone running the red light no it's turning right okay that said going if i don't want to head down to the ghetto because i mean i know that um i've heard mike say mock me many a time for saying that i've i'm i'm using the wrong car for the area and oh no they might spot me because i'm in a uh in a coupe in the ghetto or i'm in a muscle car in the hills or whatever um because he assures me that none of them are that switched on to the um to the gta vehicles so it may be that i'd be perfectly safe even if i drove down to down into the ghetto in this car and there are quite a lot of narrow twisty roads down in the ghetto so it might be quite a good way to go um but i still i still feel it's it's it's it's worth trying to stick to an area where this car is potentially going to spawn i'm gonna turn i'm turn the radio off because i press the wrong button i'm also going to put the roof up over here comes pete that was a bad time to put the roof up because he might guess and there's tristan as well they might get suspicious if they see the roof moving on a car okay i'm in the middle lane so i can't go anywhere i'm just going to have to let them beat up that panto that is mike going i don't know what he's doing he's breaking breaking the laws of physics anyway i know that much okay i'm going to start running now because they're they're expressed showing a bit too much interest in me and to be honest it's been too long we haven't had a chase yet this run so i think it's time to do something a little bit more interesting so i'm going to put my foot down a bit and see what we can do we're all in coupes or coupe class cars so i should have a reasonable chance of um not necessarily pulling away from them easily but we're all reasonably equally um equally evenly matched that's the word i was trying to use evenly matched yes so what i'm going to do is i'm going to keep my foot down i'm going to go over the bridge over here so this is going to throw off but it's not going to throw off the other hunters because pete's going to be giving them a sort of a rapid update of where i am but it's going to make it slightly harder for them to do any sort of um for them to try and head me off at the pass or anything like that but if i put so if i pull a couple of corners here like this that's actually oh that was slowing down more than i wanted to do oh there's tristan coming over the other bridge that's unhelpful always turn north though that's quite convenient so if i go this way and then oh no he stopped ah the sneaky sword hopefully i've got enough speed at this point to get to stay ahead of him and then to pull some corners like this and turn my lights off i'm not in the subtlest of vehicles because it's basically it's it's a white coupe so it's kind of gonna stick out um it's not taking any visible damage yet which is quite nice but i doesn't mean i do want to change the car perhaps for if i can see an oracle or something like that that'd be nice i mean yes the oracle is a running joke but it seems they seem to be spawning today so it might be a good a good choice what's that no i don't want that that's not fast enough and it's just going to get chaser from here on because the circle is going to get steadily smaller and smaller so i'm playing the not that one not that one not that one game again i could take there's an oracle they'll do yes it's a cliche no i don't care it's a good car it's got a broken window but it's still a good car start the car start the engine start your engine there we go right let's get back into traffic now like this and try and keep moving my theory here at this point is if i head back in towards where i was where i kind of where i lost the hunters they're not going to expect me to be coming back again because that's a daft thing to do they're going to expect me to keep my foot down and head away as much as i possibly can if i now that things have calmed down a little bit i'm going to see if i can switch to a less damaged car if i can find another cooper there's a gesture there i could take that but it's a bit too it's too good um if i if i start using the gesture my circle won't drink quickly enough so it'll take for absolutely forever for the game i mean yes i probably could get onto the highways and just do sort of laps after lap after lap after lap of the city but at high speed but that'd be really really boring so i'm not going to do that hiding in traffic here and just waiting for a hunter to turn up is far more sensible and exciting um i'm trying to work out where the red light that we're waiting for is there's a blink mobile and a green mobile and i heard some excitement and screeching and stuff unfortunately i was just stopped in traffic so we seem to be reasonably safe and i'm glad i was stopped behind another car because i had absolutely no idea where the um traffic light i was supposed to be watching for was that was tristan uh he seems not to have noticed me though so i'm just going to carry on following this is that cavalcade it's going a bit quick i think chris might have scared it when he drove into it no maybe it's not good he's not going that quickly i'll just keep following it actually no i don't want to go that way let's oh i'm in a really bad place in the my lane discipline was lacking there so i didn't want to wait quite wait at the weight of the road the weight of the lights there this on the other hand seems like a perfectly good good light to wait at right so that was yeah the the circle is now down to it it's about 300 meters i think i saw 310 flash up and it's been a 290 so yeah i missed the i missed 300 appearing so we're now two two fifths forty percent of the way through the game um so far so good um they got quite close to me then they didn't recognize me because i was just stopped sitting that's a green light green means go okay um because i was sat absolutely still it was quite hard to spot me there wasn't really anything to give me away so i'm i'm reasonably happy with that i'm getting paranoid though i mean get when me getting paranoid i think is the sign of having got the game mode about right because that's that's sort of the point of this i suppose it's supposed to be all about me going scared and panicky i'm not sure if heading out of the ghetto like this is a good idea to be honest um i mean it in the interest of just sort of keeping moving it's probably sort of a good idea but there's only so many ways out of the ghetto so that narrows down a little bit where i am um but i've got something to follow here so not quite that closely thank you there we go this is more like sort of what's the distance the ais follow out probably about this distance yes if i trundle along like this i should be fairly fairly subtle i don't really know subtly enough that i'm prepared to give it a try though 270 right i've got away from where i was where they last well where i last saw them they didn't see me or at least they didn't they didn't recognize me so but i think once you get over onto this side of the um the storm drain there's only so many different places you can be heading along the along there's only there's only a few roads going up here like when i went over the bridge i think i was probably reasonably obvious um the bridge ages ago when i went over the highway from five ways that i think i sort of was given away to an extent oh here comes pete where on earth has he gone um yeah when i went over the bridge from uh over the highway from five ways that was probably a little bit of a giveaway um because there's only a limited number of places to cross the highway so you're in a sort of a more compact tighter area now what i could do from here if i get onto the highway that'll this will bring me back over into the into the sort of the main part of the city and there's a lot more roads over there i could take that what is a horde have moving van i think it is behind me that'll probably make the circle shrink a bit quicker but i think now we're at the point where it's pro i'm probably better off in a slightly better car so i'm going to stick with my oracle the old favorite now there is a risk that the um hunters attacking me because i'm in an oracle and they've learned to spot them but i'm going to try and just go with that and um and hope for the best because it seems like um it seems like a worthwhile trade-off to stick with a car that's got a reasonable turn of speed even if it means i'm a bit more recognizable um because it's going to get to the point fairly soon where hiding is going to get a lot more difficult how far do i go on the highway i actually let's let's put my foot if i put my foot down here it's going to be obvious to them that i'm on the highway and that i'm covering some ground but i think that's okay that they will see the circle skittering across the map at high speed but as long as i can sort of get way across the map perhaps if i get all the way back over to um the vinewood type area um which you come to think you can't do on the highway so i can't quite do that but i can get to the sort of i get to south bywood actually if i come along here drop down onto the highway here and then come off again at colorful car park then i've covered a lot of distance that's going to this isn't color this isn't the colorful car park exit this is the five ways exit but never mind uh no i need to get i need to get away from the highway though because they're going to know that i've been on the highway by the speed that i was traveling at or at least they don't they're not going to know for certain but they're going to strongly suspect but if i then get out this way and start then trying to blend in to um blend in with traffic again that's going to have thrown i say thrown them it's going to given them something to think about they're going to know that i've shot over this way and that i'm now doing and they're going to come chasing over the circle is going to bounce around like an absolutely wild thing which is great for my sort of my survivability and i can head back up into the richmond hills again because that was that worked well before i think those those little roads are great for hiding in so i'm uh yeah i'm a fan of those now maybe a cavalcade would be a good idea at this point because they're quite they're quite tough vehicles they're quite good at sort of defending themselves ooh mark's joining us going to add in another hunter i'll make it a bit more um interesting potentially why am i overtaking this i want to go slowly um so yeah if i head up into these sort of air these sort of hills again i feel that going into the actual proper vine way up into the vinewood hills is it's not cheating but it's going to a bit of an odd place it's going a bit too far at the um let's go into the obscure roads thing so i'm gonna i'm gonna hang around in these hills because these are a bit more i mean this is still definitely part of the city there's no no argument about that um but it's but it's just that they're the relatively small residential rather this residential it's not quite residential but it's it's the smaller roads anyway so i feel that i feel that i should be slightly safer in them i don't know if that's true i'm not safer if another cat pulls up next to me like that though is that another oracle no that's the other one the one isn't an oracle i think it might be a i think it might be washington but i'm not sure anyway it's playing silly buggers so i don't want to be behind it it's been remarkably quiet so far i am looking forward to seeing the um the the hunter map afterwards and finding out how far away from me they've been for all of this because i suspect there's going to be a lot of near misses in this game because they know roughly where i am they're going to be driving around the right sort of area but they're not don't know exactly where i am so yeah only not not long ago now 200 meters so when i said when i said 40 earlier when he got to 300 meters i was actually completely wrong it's um because we because the game ends when he gets gets when it gets to 100 meters so we're actually only um we're three quarters of the way through now nearly there and so far survival is going quite well oh there's a purple cow behind me survival might be about to go a bit worse i'm just gonna put my foot down again because that worked quite well last time and yeah i just don't want to hang around basically what is that just doing it it was just stopped at the traffic lights but i was struggling to work out what it was doing [Applause] [Music] i think that was a shadow of a yes there's two of them behind me there okay well we are on the run now the other interesting thing about this is because the game ends when the circle gets down to 100 meters in theory i could just run the clock out oh or i could just drive into another car like that that would be one way to finish things off wouldn't it right um in theory i could run the clock out by just trying to um by trying to lead them on a merry chase for another 190 for another 90 meters worth of um game time i seem to have lost them that's quite good let's um drop off here onto the highway like that oh no wall um and wheels on the put the wheels on the tarmac gonna say oh i'm glad i had basically lost them by the time that happened um i think that oh they're shooting at me oh no i should push the duck button and hope for the best all right i hadn't lost them quite as much as i thought i'd lost them oh there's pete as well yeah i definitely haven't lost them now maybe if i hadn't been messing around with my car upside down for like 10 minutes or what felt like felt like a very long time oh that was bad and there's a car here with green headlights parked in the middle of the road let's um ignore that i mean it's tempting as it is to steal it i'm um oh no pete's still with me uh attempting as it was to steal it oh tristan's caught up as well i don't think it would have gone well because it's too obvious and it would take me too long to switch to it right is that oh that's mark's green headlights because he's joined as well now oh no there's there's three of them behind me now okay and here's me in a battered little oracle that's seriously the worst where um and i don't think the oracle is the fastest of the uh coupes at the best of times so i need to not be just going in a straight line like this this is a bad idea let's drive return there we go made it without losing too much speed as well that's one of the better turns i've done and it probably because it was an absolutely massive junction so there's huge amounts of space to play with dodge that nicely head up here now the driving in a straight line is not the way to lose anyone especially not tristan oh oh that was not the way to do anything right either i've got three though got three let's get around the corners they can't shoot me somebody is shooting but they i don't think anything hit me i'd i saw the i saw the flash on the uh on the map rather than hearing the bullets ping onto my car so i'm um optimistic about that and i certainly haven't lost any tires yet so that's a good sign oh there's a lot of street furniture there good that one broke i'm gonna start there's mike i said he didn't see me when i came around the corner there and then if i charge off this way maybe i can no pete's still i think pre-shots peak that's definitely tristan uh right what what shenanigans are there to pull around here there's always going through going to the shopping center that could be fun try for that he didn't see me come up here i don't think no he didn't excellent keep very very quiet hopefully nobody saw me oh no mike saw me get off the jump off the jump off the jump all right that'll do oh landed right on the roof i don't seem to have the air control over my car that i'd like to have there we go perfect end or breaking maneuver there park probably at least partly because the car was hardly moving when i started it so i didn't have very far to break oh dear damn it if mike hadn't spotted me up there i should have just stayed um stayed not stayed low um stayed hiding for a little bit longer there's an alleyway here this could be quite good i know where i think i know where this comes out yeah just up here oh he did follow me and i saw a flashing car behind me there was a glass backwards i only just saw him though yeah there he is uh i can't get onto the highway here i nearly turned right into there i think it was the uh which have which there's one of those highway bridges where there is a way onto the highway from that uh that was not the one um oh that looks promising behind me by and by promising i mean i can't see a splash purple now he his car is quite dark now though because he's lost his headlights so and i've got mine turned off as well because it seems like a good idea um so right i need to try and find a way to change a car but i can't do it on a major road like this i'll be far too obvious oh i know what i can do if i head down here into the uh into the canals area and then go actually into the canals people don't tend to go this way very often um because it's blooming awkward but there's a reasonable chance of a car to steal ice hope there's nothing here i see no cars ah why are there no cars to steal okay one of these yeah let's take the one that isn't a supercar okay so the circle is now really really quite small we're down to 120 meters i've nearly done it um and i've switched cars so i am very reasonably incognito now i don't know whether they saw my character model they probably did let's just stop these lights for a minute i hear a i hear an engine that's going hi hi revs that's probably one of them okay we are nearly there though we're only only another 20 meters for it to shrink so i think i think i might be i think even if we get into another chase i might be able to hold it together for long enough to um to win this one let's go i think this is this is looking looking promising let's do a lane change here i heard i heard a rev engine behind me then but when i look back i didn't see anything there's mike i see mike he's attacking me i'm not i'm not hanging around because i'm not sure what happened there but there's a car came through sideways okay this cavalcade was cavalcade was not a good choice it drives like a a whale i should have known better i should have i should have i should i shouldn't have i don't know maybe i should have taken the um the bullet and just disappeared out and got got the hell out of dodge and just driven away at ridiculous speeds to a completely different part of the city and yes the circle wouldn't have shrunk while i was doing that oh oh we have final hunt rules enabled i did not realize that i thought it was just an amount of time oh dear um it's going to be very difficult because that means the final hunt rules mean that in order to win the game i have to be more than a certain distance away from all of the hunters for like 20 seconds the distance is i'm not sure it's probably it's probably half a mile or half a kilometer or something like that but basically it means i have to lose them um and that's going to be difficult when i'm in this kind of lumberous car that i'm trying to use to um not particularly great effect should we say and suddenly there's all that here are all the hunters as well uh are these no i think those aren't breakable bushes i can't drive through those i could drive around here though and around this way and do that and then go this way i've still got the purple the purple fireplace hiding up my what's through here is this a way through out it is a way through however as i'm doing at the moment it's not a way through out no don't shoot me don't shoot me oh i'm ah so close oh i survived the i survived the um the heidi part but couldn't get away at the end that was very close though that was fun [Music] sorry i saw a panto and didn't actually see you rude this car is taking off yeah i've got him quite convertible uh heading east uh under the um highway overpass yep circle is now moving in speed so it's taking a left at mei's bank heading north towards arcadia taking a right under higher lower heading east uh continuing east past square squares heading to industrial um going over the bridge over the bridge to industrial now please head south did not uh we're still heading these over the bridge at the moment okay he's now gone south good i'm a bridge to yourself great uh he's gone uh right again so heading west there's a back over a bridge or uh heading back to the bridge now that one there all right yes okay you're first go use your speed i'm overtaking you you're not using your speed i've lost them [Music] i've got a muscle car here that's starting to move a bit quickly yeah that one that with the rear light yeah i did it's almost outside he would have taken off by now i mean doohan is behind him i don't even put his foot down i'm sure saying that that could be what he's doing now yeah i i i do think it is him but i might be wrong uh that lamppost did not fall over where are you guys uh main road and ghetto down the uh tram tracks [Applause] you know i think about right actually mike he's now starting to drive a lot more like a player incoming that guy no that is that genuinely we just spent ages chasing her yep [Music] oh no focus wow look at the circle it's just eating its way off along the highway [Music] one of these pete that grey one silver one yep has winds of the roar of three of them uh easter shopping center way east of that sorry yeah i'm in the middle of the circle uh right east edge of the circle heading north north okay he's just looped round uh approaching just west of casino bridge heading west from casino bridge oh he just hit someone sorry i punched a car sorry unintentional payback i wasn't planning on that i promise i'm actually sorry um heading which way uh wrong side of the highway heading south currently i'm going to stick over this side pete if you want to i'm going to shoot at them yeah did not have any eyes on it then thank you still heading south let me move some he did crash though it helped look like it opened left turn there at hospital i made it right yeah huge amounts taking a right again uh on to square squares heading west north side west platte square squares taking a left oh hello kitten cool mark again [Music] uh at maze bank now heading west to mike's benefit passing red carpet [Music] turning north towards art gallery i think towards five ways is there a check for if he's in a chase okay going through five ways northwest no car parks heading east no he's blocked heavy yeah heading east now you're turning right south left again east south again it's all i right see him though uh the right and then left okay uh passing the dorset now heading east sorry [Music] uh right he's got the north side of the shopping center taking the left he's going through [Music] uh looks like he's gone up unfortunately he hasn't come off so you stay here i've gone up behind he's turned around up top he's turning behind i've got him i've hunted him he's still up top he's coming over the edge no he's not yes he is he's just go off the edge now upside down and crash crash crash upside down just underneath the jump west away from shopping center northwest uh towards five ways uh west from five ways and then immediately left into an alleyway thing not helpful i think we're approaching movie studios they're approaching movie studios uh towards uh chinese monument uh but turned east before us uh super diamond nice turn south again by art gallery [Music] but i don't know oh drumming in my way as well what's wrong with you we must be reaching the limit of the circle but that's basically use the circle at the moment because i don't see him he must be he's heading onto the fruity canals yeah into the his investment canals yeah i think he's gone to ground that might be him just turned out onto the road at the south end no that doesn't fit with so uh i joined the game but i didn't get a circle so could you give me some the spooky canals were not the west segment of it not really sure where he is though but he's on foot i'm looking at somewhere so if someone wants to go to the west rome there that'd be worth keeping an eye on [Music] oh i think he's probably moving on that west road now moving northwest yeah there are some vehicles here which i shall check 404 taking off but i didn't bump it so yep so 404 heading north uh turned right at whatever this is we're all behind you i think you're moving i'm gonna move out the way because you lot will do better without me in front of you turn round knob studios no more circle romance uh north from the northwestern movie studios [Music] straight line currently uh slight right by the tennis courts and golf course going round golf course uh anti-clockwise yep is the only reason i'm blocking this room uh low car parks heading east [Music] if you're done east of low car parks uh approaching shopping center uh passing ls customs on the north side going into a car park here apparently uh it wasn't his choice okay it might be about pinning in nice shots there we go good work absolutely that was not choice [Laughter] yeah we didn't have an area to guard i forgot about the final hunt part [Music] well yeah even if there's only 20 meters to go even if i get spotted i can i can i can sort of stay alive for long enough in this cavalcade but i forgot that i then need to actually get away as well | Laurence Plays | UC8tloLKwEtygtykSb511qog | 2021-11-10 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata |

0hREbmfFfBo | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hREbmfFfBo | GaryVeee | Strategies to navigate the entrepreneurship & business world in this time!!! | questions about uh entrepreneurship strategies and what they can do in this current situation um what is it what is it about this time that makes telling stories a good idea versus other times or like do you think it's always a good idea what is it about our current environment that makes something more yeah i think it's always a good idea they're time-consuming by nature they they don't create immediate business results often but what i like about it is we don't have a lot of things we can do there's a lot of people that can't do content for their business because they physically need their being to be in their business to do it so if you own a restaurant and you know you might not be able to get to or a warehouse or things that you might not be able to get to the restaurant or like cook at the restaurant you know the ingredients that you normally have to cook every meal which would be something that i want every restaurant to do so what i like about it is whether you're a lawyer a cook a personal trainer um an event business a caddy a tennis trainer like there's so many people that can't do anything other than tell stories so what do i like about it it's practical and 99 of the businesses have not told their origin story i'm looking for comic book number one through 30. i'm looking for album number one through six most people 99 have not done album one through six only nine ninety percent haven't done album one like why are you a financial advisor people buy from people this is the chance for everybody to document their truth and their story i think it's time for story time you also talk about innovation like what do you think that a lot of those businesses that are stuck at home like restaurants barbershops like what kinds of things do you think that those types of companies can do innovation innovation-wise in addition to telling stories to bring in new revenue if they have to make money right now that everyone's going through right now one is marketing innovation so now all of a sudden you know this is your time to actually learn how to run facebook ads or instagram ads or make content so that's an innovation you go away from being a direct mail or joining the chamber of commerce or you know uh outdoor media and you're now actually finally taking instagram ads or tic toc content or youtube channel seriously so that you can innovate your comms the other innovation is innovation of direct to consumer and and local delivery there's so many restaurants that are finally now taking grubhub and ubereats seriously there's there's people that um i was on that zoom this morning on t with garyvee with somebody who has an ice cream store and i pushed her like it's time figure out the ice packs figure out the packaging you need to send pints of ice cream around the country because nobody's coming to clear water florida right now buying ice cream so dtc aka shipping your let me give you an example of something somebody wouldn't think about a barber can't cut hair most barbers have scissors razors soaps and other ointments in their barber shop today is the day to create the shopify account that sells the 29 products you have in your store right and is going to lead to an extra 500 bucks to 4 000 bucks a month in sales when we get back and that's an incredible thing yep awesome what about what about bigger companies like someone like a hotel or like a travel industry like what what can they do right now innovation wise um so again story time for them this is exactly when the ceo of the hilton should be doing a zoom interview and recording a conversation with the master sommelier that they employ then another hour with the head of like events to talk about why their rooms are like this is commercial time this is storytelling time like every ceo has probably 14 to 75 meaningful executives that run their organization they should do a one-hour interview story time with them and you know we this is how it actually works you know i stumble across a video in my uh in my feed on facebook or youtube or instagram and it's the ceo of of the marriott group interviewing their sommelier which captures my intention and all of a sudden subconsciously vaynermedia's booking rooms at the marriott versus the kimton i mean that's just real life and so from sommelier to event coordinator to concierge to bell service i mean even if even if like and then if you have like creative juices whoever's the head of like uh room services just telling funny stories of like when they walked into a room one time and there was a tiger in there or 5 000 empty bottles of champagne or just something that like light in the mood too um and obviously every brand has its you know kind of dna of like are they fun are they serious but this is story time i mean i want to know the chef i want to know i want to know to speak to the bartender like i legitimately might book a westin in dallas because i liked the bartender in that video and i wanted to try the westin whistle a drink that she made up in the dallas westin you're always one story away from changing the trajectory you know theodore roosevelt is really known because he was a great storyteller that is literally why he's a president we know you know like that's real life so it's it's story time do you think that there's like other revenue streams that would be more practical for them or do you feel like that's less practical than just creating more content well look innovation comes in a lot of let's go back to hotels innovation comes in the fact that you donate your rooms right now to health professionals and that leads to a pr story and everybody feels warmer towards right warmer towards the the xyz hotel you know the lowe's hotel in new york because they are helping you know uh health professionals with free rooms like um so there's actually doing that in new york that's right and so like as you can imagine you could be the one that does that in new orleans as new orleans is now starting to become a hot zone so there's innovation in kind of like giving there's innovation in like you know by the way here's one for the cnbc crowd how about all the executives that are not practitioners becoming practitioners this is exactly the time to sit down and spend three hours and place a facebook ad if you're a cmo and oh by the way i know the dirty secret 80 of cmos have never placed an actual facebook ad themselves so like this is the time to actually become practitioners because so many of the cnbc crowd have become so high-level executives they're not in the trenches anymore so that's another innovation um by the way why can't the hilton become a brand that does deliver food from their you know from their room service and becomes like could you imagine like you know four seasons room service became something that shows up in your seamless during this time there's just so many ideas that could come up obviously i'm coming to the realization that i was built for ideas i do them in real time in meetings i always took that for granted it was a natural skill that i wasn't able to observe so i can do it right now in this interview but the reality is that's what it's going to require awesome you talked about um like selling during this time like if you're a salesperson or an entrepreneur that has to hit a quota still in this time how would you go about selling um first uh very uh thoughtfully because of your tone death you're finished right you can lose as much business as you get during this time by being tone deaf going in for the ask so i think upfront compassion and upfront hedging but not to the tone of begging is really the tone you're trying to hit um but i think listen i think the greatest sales people in the world are actually branding and storytellers that lead to sales versus cold emailing everybody on linkedin and via email so um uh something we're doing at vayner is we're sending out bottles of wine to executives and doing zoom wine tastings you know just like happy virtual happy hours where we're shooting the and and that's that is half you know sales half relationship building for the long term and so i think um with compassion for the buyer because it's unsettling times got it cool that's all i have for that article that's awesome gary thank you i'll let you guys go later bye awesome i got one more article a few more questions for you on uh providing free content to get paid access um so as a business model why do you prefe why do you prefer access as opposed to like a product or a course or do you prefer access like how do you think about that relative to other monetization options i love access um because i think it's valuable and i think just ebooks or memberships that just send you written or audio or video information are actually stunningly commoditized because there's so much uncomfortable free good information on the internet what you can't replicate is getting an hour with raghav you know so like raghav can start a how i wrote for garyvee course and how do you write for top entrepreneurs and it's a good 19 book or 19 a month thing cool but getting an hour of your time once a week or once a month is so much greater because in that q a while you're talking to that closed group somebody may ask you and you tell a funny story about me and and more importantly it leads to the breakthrough so access is not scalable thus inherently it's valuable to the other person on the other line like a lot of what i've a lot of what i've said on t with garyvee the last week i've said before but because i'm giving so much access to that person it's resonating and giving the value you're able to take something that's generic that you put out and make it more contextual to that specific person that's the value that's you see that as the value of access versus a product or a course or something like that i sure do and serendipity that person may ask you something randomly maybe a wine advice on the way out you know like maybe you know how to deal with your father like you know like there's in access you are living and breathing so you're able to react to something thus providing even more value it's also supply and demand you can't get an hour with me one-on-one that's just not real whereas everybody can get unlimited information from me more importantly other people get entrepreneurial information for free all over the internet for the rest of life so a lot of people are selling something that is a commodity and all they're doing it is through cult of personality but like the actual thing is commodity whereas access is so uncomfortably unique so uncomfortably limited by nature than so uncomfortably valuable got it yeah what so it's easy to think about that in the context of like like like people who put out content content creators like is there any other kind of business that you feel like that's suited to how would you apply that to other other areas well that is the business of being a doctor i'm observing that is the business of being a lawyer it's like it actually plays out in a lot of other places i can put out law content for free all day long but i'm providing you a service to like actually consult you uh a therapist um a financial advisor like all of these people could put out your i'm a therapist but i'm just putting out generic things i'm telling you about parenting and insecurity and all those things but i have to really sit down with you raghav for an hour and really talk about your childhood and so that that i i mean that's actually why it's so obvious that it's valuable got it is there it seems like it it kind of like i guess doesn't damn like it doesn't like come at the expense of brand as much as like selling a product or something else too right like is it right what do you think i'm you got it like even as you're thinking through it the reason i believe in it is i don't you know i believe that it puts your brand in a much better position it also allows you when you sell content it means all your free content usually it's just sales content to drive to the paid content when you sell access you're just putting out your best content because that's not where you're monetizing you're monetizing individual contextual you know access which then makes your original content so much greater because the energy intent dna seed of that content is inherently better because it's not a sales funnel it's actually just the best content you have yeah that makes sense like it's the hardest to copy because it's the most it's the most narrow thing you can do correct and it's just like just a good intent of that free creative it's like i watch everybody who eventually like builds community on this hypothesis comes from experience i've watched so many people that are crush it when they don't think about monetizing their content and then the second to a hundred dollar a month club or a paywall product all of a sudden you can just tell all their normal content has taken a turn and has become almost manipulative sales and subconsciously manipulative they think they're doing the same thing but in the back of their mind they're like in this hour i'd like to get 14 people to sign up for my membership and all of a sudden and that's just how i behave you know it's no different than if you're hanging out with somebody from the uh somebody you're attracted to versus somebody you're not attracted to you know it just it affects everything that comes out of your mouth yeah makes sense cool that's all i got when you have a we have a selfish goal in mind one is incapable of actually bringing as much value than when you have a selfless ambition in mind because you're always thinking about that not like the yeah the reason my content the reason i'm winning is because i'm like pouring my heart and trying to give an answer to that person for the actual answer and for all the people watching that are like that not keep it as a cliffhanger that makes her want more and to pay 99.99 a month to be part of the garyvee world yeah it's hard to win on that too like because there's so many people that people can always get more and more and more away like for free so it's like it's hard to actually win on that that's right i mean there's also youtube and podcasts and the internet it's really really really hard to have paid content that isn't replicated somewhere else you know yeah awesome no she's protected especially if you're tactics yeah you're a commodity yeah it's all youtube cool thanks so much gary see ya bye | Motivation LIFE | UCTXHEDIWzy_k-VeVJ9Ifm-A | 2020-07-21 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 2,721 | 14,551 |

uUwTJ-9hVbc | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUwTJ-9hVbc | 🔥 UNLEASHING pDAI: The Future of Stablecoin Dominance in CRYPTO! | and uh the opportunity that uh I believe in the theory and the uh work that I've been putting into this over the past since around October when I first saw uh the maker contracts interacting on PSE chain and uh the governance voting that was done uh by Richard and then of course um whenever nine iron went deep into his own Theory watching Richard uh collateralize vaults and also moving money around um all helping show and give us the the idea of what could possibly be happening maybe he was using it just to show us to start paying attention maybe it'll be used uh to Peg us um but there's you know a lot of different mechanics and methods I believe that are going to be used but I'm going to start with uh start with pretty much introducing myself uh I go by rig service I've been in crypto since uh the early days of Bitcoin like two3 Bitcoin I uh recovering recovering addict and I uh fumble I was buying Bitcoin and selling Bitcoin not understanding that it could go up in value so uh came a long way since then um sober and uh building communities um spent a lot of time on the BSC uh after I've came back and uh essentially built a community that um we all trust each other and we're all in they're always hanging out and uh you know finding our ways and finding our value uh then through all that I found the actual hex and PSE chain Community sacrifice into pulse chain uh also sacrific into pulse X of course and then of course this kind of theory of the P tokens never really crossed my mind um thinking know it wouldn't be possible but as time went on um different things emerged to where it became such a in like I was became so enthralled with it that it was literally something that I focused about 90% of my time on as I work on the when I work in the oil field and also especially when I'm off work I'm constantly digging in and and searching and and doing my thing um so that's kind of where we're little jump forward but kind of where I stand today with the pulse Trends community and uh as well as a community uh my call Channel or whatever blockchain trend um so we do have things things planned and some other communities that we're involved with and uh but uh yeah the whole Theory and the whole idea and what what this narrative brings to pulse chain um in my in my opinion Richard uh had a couple options and I think a lot of people believe that Richard was going to use that money to pump their bags and he has been he has been using that money to pump uh pump those bags but uh in theory he could literally you know by pegging py he could mint another pole another free bag pretty much out of thin air right without ever having to spend value and while doing so the invention of s die he can get um up to 15% apy as well as with morha with morph Labs uh his collateral if he collateralize with eth or if we bring it over to pulse and since it is on pulse eventually pulse chain and whatever assets that are used to collateralize for SDI will also have the ability to gain uh apy which would probably end up in the vaults and end up in the community and the community the Community Fund so to speak um but whenever we obtain the S die you know we we would be the ones like the die savings model the uh DSR which is all um derived from the protocol called spark right so Spark a vital role and to where we are and why it uh all of a sudden was launched May 9th uh a few days before pulse chain launched the founder of spark Dow is named Sam but on Twitter he goes by the name of hexan not um meaning and he States a couple years ago I love me some hex so he's he he's an ex maker di engineer and works um worked closely with them designing the the PSM model that every stable coin uh realizes today and uses today uh he essentially turned what used to be uh kind of a [ __ ] show for stable coins into uh the first model that could be a turn stable coins ecosystems into profit profitable ecosystems by using an automatic M Market maker that front runs the buyer or the seller by pushing the price up and down before the person makes the purchase doesn't hurt the purchase you know doesn't they don't lose value it's just that the they push the price down to 99 Cents they're still buying it for a dollar right they um they push the price up to 101 they still get it for a dollar but they eat the profits you know they eat they eat the extra the extra gains and it say it's a way for them to be make income then comes spark uh spark Dow and what they've designed um to pretty much create an infinite money glitch um to where these stable coin ecosystems can not only take say die or usdc but say you have Dy you could uh take your Dy put it in to S die right or put it yeah and then get S die so you burn your die you get S die you get U an apy based on um the model itself you can also essentially put anything that the governance votes on like so if they want pulse to be collateral or pulse X or um any asset pretty much on puling could be utilized depending on what the Dow votes to to have that happen and to be able to obtain s die so I believe SD plays a a pretty big role into how this is going to formulate and I'll explain that later because you have to remember you have a has an S die compound has an S die maker Dow has an S die and then spark protocol itself will have it will have an S die um during uh during the phase one of the protocol it announces that they you know they're eventually going to be laun you know they've launched spark Lind and uh in the maker Dow voting uh concepts of all this going down it states that there's a layer one chain that already has spark launched on it and it's already working as intended and uh that is the place that could possibly be where um everything kind of ends up like spark Dow's home spark Dow right now is part of their ecosystem and part of makerd uh as a subow they're not affiliated with them in any way um they're just there playing by the rules to be uh a subow within the uh that ecosystem also providing them returns and uh and all returns but by doing so he's opened up a way for them to pay attention to what's happening on PS um and bringing in two of the biggest protocols as well as well as spark which has you know turned maker into a very minimal profitable company to the second largest if not the largest profitable ecosystem within the last six months um so that's one thing we have to look forward to and then the uh the ability of asj to I know a lot of people talk about the 22 billion in Supply uh for pedi can't Peg well the fact that if we have multiple SD and multiple communities that have um you know like uh a has gho which they they can use their stable coin to collateralize it or they have you know they have people that also use um um dye as well maker uses dye you know they'll be able to come in pretty much use that Dy come in and collateralize it through S die which will burn the D Supply down over time and uh pretty much you know get us closer to where we're getting but of course it's going to take time it's it's not like we're going to get there today or tomorrow but technically with him having I think whenever people say that they look at his wallet right you see 200 million in eth that's not the case you had there's 200 million in eth and there's still 200 million in s die and uh the reason being is because that s die is sitting inside of a contract that is not recognized on ether scan because ether knows ether SC or eth knows that that money is not going to stay there um so the but if you go to like Arkham I I have screenshots I'll post some of this stuff later and explain it all like in a nice thread um so being able to have it it incentivizes make and it incentivizes a as well as compound who we've seen payments go to a we've seen payments go to and from maker we've seen payments go to and from spark uh for for different reasons we've also seen uh him put 8 billion worth of hex inside the eth proof of work chain which is um Maker's going to be forking uh that was their last thing was they're going to be forking um e proof of work so it's like they've all been working together in my opinion U behind the scenes pretty much working on this model knowing that they're pretty much leaving eth and the new meta will be launching your own blockchain um and Rich has pretty much front R the market on that in my opinion and uh a lot of people are you know fighting the concept of this happening um this idea alone would be the biggest narrative in crypto and even after it reaches the dollar and and uh pegs um the ability of people to come come into that and make her to be able to say they literally Peg die when it had no Supply and then they also Peg die when it when when it had an overabundance of Supply meaning they helped design the best St like the most decentralized stable coin but the method of being able to Fork a chain and do what Richard did literally is what D5 was always meant to be right um of course there's different mechanic the money that he has right now could technically bring us to a dollar but you know you're looking at Big wallets you're looking at usdc USD and uh uh and and die I don't as far as the that that model goes you you can't um you can't you can't use usdt to uh it's not they don't use it they kind of push it away from their protocol so they use usdc to back their Pro to back their protocol as well as uh the you know collateralized Stables uh to Collateral collateral like you know probably rat pulse pulse pulse x uh maker a um and and those assets so um once once everything once I believe once SDI reaches a dollar right now I believe uh right now it's still you're buying it for a dollar but it's literally worth I think around seven cents last that I last that I looked so I think the right now they're pretty much waiting for SII to find the the real the real dollar value that it's worth um you can see that there's a spark um spark swap right has the same name almost you know I don't know if they're Affiliated but they're definitely using S die and they're on ramping eth right into the right in bridging eth in uh and then literally taking it throwing it into Siti and then uh burning liquidity like so they're just they're constantly on boarding through that way and and then eating the eating the 93 Cent profits and then using that to also buy pulse so it's slowly but surely coming through that one bridge is helping uh helping the mechanic and also getting people to start paying attention to that side of the uh the equation um to me the the hexan uh the hexan theory even that him being a maker di engineer is H is pretty massive um and I think that it's kind of pointing he's been kind of pointing uh with like little hints here and there maybe with the collateralization of you know messing around with the pools and you know finding out I guess today was big news with the um Maria doxing right that was huge I think that's why we saw the price pump like we did um and then being able to you know the way that a Tropa is built could be a way to where we don't have to use the same maker die model because maker as we know it will no longer exist maker is turning into a a meme coin uh they want to become more memeable so maker will only exist on pulse and eth after after a certain period of time whenever they're getting ready to launch their end game they're um getting rid of their token at a 24,000 to1 ratio uh and these are all fundamental values of Richard Hart right the the unit bias and um you know being more meable so speak and if you think of the name of spark and pulse and blast they're all synonyms right so it seems like this was these were all hints that were given to us that they were all going to start an attempt to work together and you know after holding die for so long for you know 400 million you know the top holder of die for years I'm sure this is how all this became you know came about of how can we get him not have to not have to sell it and how and still use it uh to the benefit of his ecosystem and it came to I think it came to the point to where they saw that what he had the ability to do by bringing these copies over and then literally H re having them Reach parody through uh literally it's ecometric ecometric equilibrium and the faster that you do it so these are like the Arbitrage Bots um that we're seeing that are arving we've seen them ARB across to and from across Bridges and with that now that the I think he also knew that the gas was going to go down as soon as the gas went down today this is whenever I noticed what what um he was also working on the entire time and the ability to in my opinion has enough more than enough value um for this to uh to reach the ACT to reach parody um so what he was so what what was being done if you look uh at some of these pools you're going to see like tokens called um I bonus.com uh usdc bonus claim.com uh LP bonus Unis swap whatever.com and these are all over the place right if you take those contracts and you look at them on eth they say that they're fishing scams but the reason and so they don't show value so just like how you cannot see his s die they've made sure since that money is going to leave the chain ethereum didn't want to make it look like hundreds hundreds of millions of dollars was getting dumped out of their chain you right so they they were so e or big big brain [ __ ] so he was so what he would do was would be like if it's die uh die bonus.com he would uh he made a bunch of liquidity pools and was making money with the bar Bots and also some of the sacrifice funds and he would uh he threw the die into a into that asset and then by using a token implement mation which is a burn Mint type of function to where he could literally burn the dye and turn it into this other token um this other token could then be um leveraged in a way to where it would hide the value although the value is there it's all still sitting on eath and this is done with at least 200 tokens at least 200 tokens as well as liquidity pools um and in my opinion or opinion this is exactly what's going to happen um because they it's hidden value because the value is there it's just sitting and waiting to be deployed how he deploys it is he can literally you could literally without even using a bridge he could do this um because he could um take that take those assets uh turn them back into the stable coins that they are and like ethereum and then he could burn them on E and then he could them um directly into the liquidity pool that he has put all those other Assets in um like so it's it's it's an insane it's an insane thing it's so it's it's massive and that also means that ethereum isn't on it that also means that maker and other protocols that want to bring liquidity over might have an opportunity not only to um not have to use the bridge to bring it over but they could also there might be a you know a liquidity burn pull that people can go like go into and use which is way safer than moving hundreds of millions of dollars across a bridge um or they could also use S itself but in my opinion they're going to literally be able to deploy those funds uh unwrap them burn them mint them which which at that point they will mint you know be able to Mint them over here the value and the tokens because he as an owner of the spark instance he can literally mint that stuff uh mint guy Min usdc and he can literally just mint it and then be able to take it and start collateralizing um with other things he I mean there's eth ones too so he can literally he'll be able to do the same thing with eth uh R Bitcoin I haven't I haven't even looked into all of them I literally just found this out today um and this is what literally was the broke the camera on the back for me because I mean the hexan thing is huge uh that's you know the connection was spark the connection with maker the fact that he put you know the money into their liquidity pool for a snapshot um the fact that there was funds being going back and forth him using certain wallets to um reach uh you know um make it look like he was looking to try to Peg D and then buying s die soon as he bought s die I was like okay like something's really up here and that's whenever I started investigating actual maker voting and a voting uh mainly these votes got pushed through because of uh R Ro Christensen the owner of Makow uh Winters mute who plays another vital role in this and then uh uh Richard and uh themselves they Lally outvoted everyone in the uh and as far as the governance goes like he literally got in as a brand new protocol won every single vote in in maker well but he used to work there so the course had the connection did the same thing with a um and was able to pretty much push the terms and then also offered them also offered them returns in the form of uh 10 like 10% so 5% of the gains to each of them meaning that wherever spark lands they want to be right there with them because they're incentivized to to be to do so as well as they're incentivized for these tokens to Peg um especially for maker who's going to be dropping their token and trying to launch not uh their own their own chain right so this is it get you know they get the Stables they get all their other assets their liquidity pools so it just makes sense for those uh for them to come over and and use those use those liquidity use use those copied liquidity pools and um through in the form of either SDI or literally just being able to burn in Min through an admin function that's in s die um that value will literally on the Chain immediately it will no longer be on E but it's that's literally how they did it it's I mean it's and you can go look right now like just go type in die and you'll see uh m m die.io you'll see um a Ark die.com um bonus die.com if you go look on there um you know it'll say it's a fishing scam so it doesn't it's not trapped but if you look further into it you'll see that there's loads of stables based on the name sitting inside the actual you at one point in time you see all these transactions happen and then all of a sudden you see a contract get made and then you see them the value technically qu on quote disappear again it was done so ethereum people wouldn't have to freak out about uh stuff leaving and also if they didn't know this is a literally the biggest move that one could possibly Envision to literally use straight up Defi and defy mechanics to be able to not not hide the value because if anyone you know but to be able to put the value in a place that someone wouldn't look for it and then knowing that it would be copied over just like we saw him do with the maker pool he literally made a maker dpol with uh four like 2 million in usdc and 2 million in uh in maker tokens in 2020 and he pulled it out you know and that's when it it clicked that's like oh man so he's always been providing liquidity so a lot of so he's got liquidity pulls probably for every single of the major assets from Unis swap to a to compound and I think some of them are going to be doing it themselves but some of the other protocols definitely ethereum I believe probably WRA Bitcoin he already owns a lot of the supply anyway so he was probably already you know you know preparing himself for that and then literally they could just like that be able to mint value onto the chain any have any questions I know that's quite a bit of information uh but we have time I'll over again to to Circle back um to to where you started um in the space um and for benefit of people who may have just randomly joined and don't know about polls or don't know about what's happening there um and may have heard of Richard um who you know gets uh interesting press shall we say um from from various places when you say he's used an infinite money glitch it's not a scam is it he's literally just used the technology that already existed and that ethereum and other chains could have done the same El like this is technology Works correct it wasn't even Richard technically Richard might have been helping the guy but it was the it was the maker Dow engineer that's a hexagon that that helped come up with this idea of being able to use morph flabs which is you you can use your wrapped Stak ethereum as a collateral or just hold it and you can literally make apy on it say an S die itself that he created which is literally die savings die also gives you apy so you can make apy on top of your apy just by holding those assets and as a as a PSM model it's it's literally an just a rolling income stream at at the value that he could be bringing over in the in billions meaning at even just 5% you're talking $50 million a year that could be hitting the chain and um I believe that you know it's going to be higher than that now it's in at both of them are at around 10% so I mean you're talking $100 million um rolling in to the chain um if if those uh those saving rates and those apy stay where they're at and so that's what I mean by infinite money glitch um because no longer are the days of a stable coin that has to you know fluctuate you know against against the actual Market it's because the market maker itself see someone coming in and buying for a dollar it Dr it'll push the price up to a dollar one sells it to them for a dollar but they you know they gra the they're able to take the uh the profits themselves so and and then vice versa so it's like if you ever heard of a a sage uh ecosystem are the one tomb Finance uses where you use a bond and you allow people to if it goes up or down they get to buy it for 99 cents or they get to sell it for a dollar two instead of allowing that to happen the actual Market maker the A&M amm bot is the one that does it giving the actual ecosystem uh the profit rather than uh rather than the uh the bond makers which is better because then you're able to provide an a stable St a stable apy uh over time based on um you know the actual ecosystems growth um as well as you know perpetuals lending the thing with d is is that you can't you when you it's a it's a a token that survived like it did because you can't take a loan out against it like flash loaning you can't flash loan it unless it's worth like 60 66 cents so when when you take a loan out against a die it's a 60 c 66 cents to the dollar so it's very hard to make a profit off die by taking a flash Lo out against it s die different story s die will be bringing 20x Leverage uh and Flash loans to the actual die ecosystem so it and and Perpetual uh Perpetual trades with it as a as an asset you know like s against Bitcoin s against hex s die against it's already being built on uh spark uh swap as well that Perpetual so that's another E you know another type of form for them to make money and and Le you know and The 20x Leverage people love leverage but that's just this is part of something that D didn't have the capability of doing because they saw so much or that's that's one of the reasons why D you know survives as a and has survived as long as it has hope I touched on that a little much yeah anyone with um talk about the when Richard bought eth and everybody saying he bought the top but he really kind of shorted it with the S yeah technically 100% so um whenever everyone thought that uh he took so he bought $400 Million worth of SII um I think that he did it prematurely because there was other people doing it and uh at the point at that time they uh spark Finance didn't announced that you cannot with that you only staked eth in certain forms could be used as collateral but he was grandfathered in so he's still is going to get the airdrop because I saw the leaderboard but so so he took that and then so it we know it was 400 million right and now all of a sudden it's just it's just 200 million so it's like where did it go in my opinion multiple places because he was able to he's he's he's deployed the S die yeah so he took he would have had die that gave him s die so he could and since he's the owner of the protocol he could mint it as collateral so he literally put that with all the other liquidity that he that he had copied right now he's doing it again so he's still making money with that uh he's putting to work that die while still holding the S die as well so not only does he have the liquidity pools that got copied he's literally building on top of them even more right now while we speak because he's able to deploy the the uh as the S as collateral while still holding the eth um so yeah the SD is you know just the same reason why we don't we can't see the other funds um like I I'll show it in the chat later if you go to Arkham and you type in all those wallets you'll see like dollar for dollar like almost they pretty close it'll be like 19 million and then well you know eight you know 9,500,000 worth of SII sitting right there and then as as the uh Market was going down against eth the eth falling he was actually getting more STI uh in his wallet so in my opinion he probably did some sort of a short technically it definitely wasn't a long um and and it and it was done I believe because he wanted to he wanted to hurry up have something to use as collateral so he could get so we could have funds to deploy quicker because when he did it was whenever we had just reached market equilibrium on the on the ethereum Chain he literally did it based off of that uh based off of that metric um and he also wanted to buy SDI and get you know use it to start loaning it out because by doing so he increases himself up in the in the leaderboard in the spark Dow which means he can then own have and help control governance of that protocol because it's going to be such a great protocol you know he wants to support it you know so doing it the way that he did it he was able to obtain and still be able to obtain points into their ecosystem and we have our own instance of it running too so it's just like a it's a double-edged um double-edged money-making uh thing for what what he did if that makes sense but yeah that's the S di is 100% in his wallet and uh I believe I believe some of uh the some of the stuff that he collateralized with um is being deployed as we speak you inside some of those same ecosystem tokens that we once s uh that were that that I had found today because there's a lot of movement going on um because the gas is so cheap now that he could literally deploy and or not him but could be Winter's mute right um which is back uh win Winter's mute is literally a protocol that boot straps liquidity for uh uh for new all the ones they did it for salana in 2020 they are they literally are part of Maker's governance and Al's governance um they run Arbitrage Bots which is what we see on uh po chain but they do it in a benevolent manner meaning they will move $30,000 $40,000 around in liquidity for 1% or even losses right um depending on how the Bots are fed they can actually trade for losses I know this because I I learned how to run one literally a couple days ago so uh through that connection alone that's whenever that's where it all starts for me uh because they because they were given $25 million by maker Dow by maker Dow's Dow and that $25 million they sacrificed around 22 million meaning they probably were part of sacrificing the funds and uh which again incentivizes them to help this chain succeed so that's and you can literally look up Winter's mute type in make or da and you can um you know I I like I said I'll make a post that actually shows the connection between the two I mean they they're worth tens of billions of dollars um but yeah like the S die is definitely you can go again you can go to Arkham you can look at all those wallets that are holding e and uh I had to double and triple check there's s die there and the the other you can see the die being sold but that's how that works right if you're holding one and then you collateralize one you can mint more um so and then I think that's what he did and so he's even deployed another 200 million on eth to literally bootstrap even more liquidity so when it's time he's going to have more than enough to come over and you know play that play the uh get the getting the peg um to well to reach a dollar and then of course um maintain Peg I think uh uh the whole ecosystem s is going to do a very strong job of getting it to where it needs to get you know holding more amas I mean there's no stronger Community than pei and with Pei being tied so directly to you know at Tropa and uh teddy bear and as as we all know other ecosystems are now launching stuff into it as as well as myself um so just being able to kind of Leverage P ey burn it do what we can to uh to spread the word because this this is in my opinion going to to change a ton of people's lives not saying it's going to happen overnight I'm not saying it's it's uh it's going to happen I just from what I can tell and from what I can see this is the biggest 9d chess move that anyone could possibly imagine like we thought it was already big before but the way that it's it's uh where it's grown to now and the amount of the the smart like the amount of people the smart people that are following this and that are encouraging each other to be a part of this and is this something that you don't see and I definitely didn't see it on BSC right like people are coming up to me going hey when you launch you know I'll give you 1% of the supply and I'll give you 1% we can pair it with liquidity and burn it that doesn't happen anywhere guys you know like we might be upset that we're not on salana right now but that's just such a grifty chain and yes maybe we can go over there and uh you know help you know on board people and get them involved which is exciting and I think it's it's it's great but at the end of the day this narrative will do what it needs to do and uh it's like I think hle nomics touched on it before pretty much have something for everybody it'll have you know their Bitcoin if they want their Bitcoin it'll have staking and this I mean it'll have every single aspect of every s single type of token as and literally the best incentive token aspect uh toonomic that is that has ever been built um so with with ink doing its thing uh and then pulse burn pulse X burning you know I I don't care if pulse stays low keep keep our gas keep our gas cheap and you know we still have we still have the ability to turn on that that that protocol to literally 10x or 10 negative 10x the gas fees when that uh when we're ready for that anyway so it's a e is going to you know gas or not not pulse chain they didn't they didn't have liquidity pools they didn't have the the same type of technologies that how quickly we've grown as a community and building these things is unmatched on any other chain ever period but the ability for us to pair liquidity together and do it from day one and literally build our own stable coin is huge and then even after it pegs that money can then be redeployed and continue to you know make others money right um and that's the beauty of you know like the giving tree so to speak and I know that just it's unfortunate sometimes whenever the biggest influencers in the space seem to seem to knock it and seem to knock the theory but that's okay you know if they're going to live you know hurt people hurt people but I think they they'll eventually come around and and if they don't they're just you know they're going to continue to either be upset or throw sh one way or another but the way that the atropa dev's doing it you know and hex will also reach and surpass in my easily in my opinion so um I think if they understood what was going on here that they would uh literally be able to help help their own bags so with all of the research that you've done and N9 has done and you know there's a lot of eyes looking at all this and stared to track all this um if someone on the street or a reporter walked up to you in 12 months what do you see the crypto space looking like what do you see pulse and and where do you see pulse within that um like what's it going to look like to the average in that sense in about a year let's say a year say pulse will it have pulse will then some of the biggest eyes and the biggest money and the biggest flow of things going on to it number one of the reasons is because uh p uh py will be the only D the real Dy to exist what in all the exchanges what do they use they use the die that we use the contract address that we use that contract address is no longer going to exist anywhere else except for pulse so when they're coming out and they're trying to get a hold to die those exchanges they're going to have to come in through our front door and do that and if once they start understanding that we that some of our best meme assets and utility assets are highly tied to them to die it would just make sense for them to also be looking at the gas token the you know and pulse X so it's it's GNA it's going to do what it needs to do to bring eyes in and then I personally believe that the value of the chain is going to you know liquidity wise billion a billion two billion you know in a year with just liquidity wise yeah not more than that I I I firly believe that I firmly do so we do have a question in the comments from uh gabos Will rap p uh Pig BTC or pulse PTC also get a peg do you think what is that Peg what will uh WP BTC so wrapped pulse BTC also get 100% yeah r r BTC is like it has a very low Supply so not only will it Peg it will probably be 10x higher than Bitcoin um because it's literally 150,000 in Supply versus 21 million so not only will R not only will R BTC peg in my opinion it will surpass Bitcoin and it'll yeah it'll surpass the one on eth and then it might might even bring the one up on eth up due to Arbitrage that's kind of cool I mean and it's kind of cool in the sense that really it's existing technology like we're seeing it with synthetics we're seeing it with Bridges thises this is just how it works now and that's going to be for the people yes 100% and it's got to be for the people and it just it's yes it's we're doing it organically it's been tough it's it's been but the market will reward us for for for us waiting um the that's just how markets work um yeah we had to shake hands out yes there are people selling their bags on us yes there are um but this is why Richard did it this way he wants us and those other people that weren't in HEX or that didn't sacrifice a bunch of money to still have the ability to you know do well right um he's not shoting on anyone he just knows that this is the biggest and best way to on board everybody and without having to do anything except literally you know do what he does best you know outsmart everyone and then being a genuine person and um you know maybe acting like an ass but he does that because it takes all the shade off of all the other devs in the space and with him going head on it's it's almost like they owe him you know a little bit of tip of the Hat I think it's kind of respect given I think it's a some of it's a front whenever they people assume that they don't like Richard Hart I think Richard has you know put put a lot on his shoulders and he's proving himself time and time again as a as a leader as a as an in an innovator and whenever I found this out yesterday or found this out today and I wrote it in the chat I almost I had to stop and pull over and like be like whoa like okay if if he didn't do this he literally aird dropped the biggest prolific scammer in the world that is going to destroy the chain because of how much money they have if it's not him but there's no way he would do that I actually went and looked at other contracts that work scams and you look at it there are no tokens in those in those he literally gave them nothing right the ones that and the ones that that that I know that and that's when I figured it out is they were all the supply was split up evenly between all of them this completely split up so like usdc whatever it was 3,9 $3,999 and you know 10,000 wallets all had uh that token not saying they all had uh that much usdc but this is how he split it up some of them did some of them had more some of them had less um it just depends and then I believe that he's continuous he's continuing to fill it up as we speak I think he's continuing to um work on and making more and more um liquidity literally as we're talking about this right now and that's why I know that people are eventually going to find out and find this out because they will see that these tokens that I'm talking about are moving and doing things on that chain and I know and then yeah there'll be a point at time Oracle or S the S ey where it's maybe it's maybe it's fed in over time but I think no he's not going to go acoss I just see it's too sketchy to go across a bridge I think the ability to kind of burn into a wormhole so to speak and then be able to Mint on this side uh that means that we literally just have it we might even see a new type of we might even see link come out with their technology that allows cross chain daps to where we could just have our liquidity pools sitting over there and we could literally just be trading straight you know into those liquidity pools and they still be owned by you know owned by you know pulse chain and then again still not have to uh go through that the hassle of putting money into a bridge um so I mean and then spark is also coming up with certain methods and certain mechanics of I think we talked about it earlier it's like like it doesn't have to be a stable or a pegged eco thing it can literally be uh a token that runs off of an under like I was talking the seage seage kind of ecosystem to where you can you know put in shorts and Longs and then be able to buy it for 40 cents cheaper and sell it you know back to the peg or back to the back to the dollar or will it Peg it a dollar you know right now I his all the s dies are all over a dollar all of them are all all all of them are over a dollar and still getting you know hella um apy all right and then there'll be a time where maker and Spark kind of part ways that's whenever spark will launch their new stable coin and uh maker will change their name um and then they'll launch their chain and then it'll kind of be a a free-for-all but I believe that pulse chain will be the Hub of die like the die and uh it's just you know it's it's this big brain stuff and I'm sure that he's he's showed them some of these wallets and some of the stuff that he has done to where they've gotten to the point to where they they're on board with it I mean if you look at a the dce the the S die for a you know it literally looks like it has a pulse chain Rim around it I know their colors are similar but you know even their pulse even their s the a s die looks like it's a pulse chain pulse chain token um and I think again I think think this is more of an a tip of the hat to the fact that they know where the protocol came from they know why the protocol was built and they know how big it could be for them um and their Community to not only have the value where they're at but to be able to literally Min more value over here and then a they will probably eventually launch their own chain too I believe Richard has front-run the market on this I think he did the same thing with hex but he did it maybe six or eight months in advance this one he's done by a couple years so any other chain that tries to catch up now they're a year behind they're easily a year behind where we're at um because you have to have that layer liquidity you have to have tokens launching and you have to have tokens failing because you have to have dead liquidity ends for this to work uh without the dead liquidity ends um you just have the money completely circulating around with the Arbitrage Bots um without them um like dipping down and sending stuff down into to the to the leveraged layers so to speak so the further that that that's why a tropus launching the way that it is right you have this one layer and then some tokens survive and then you have another layer some tokens survive and another layer some tokens survive but the Arbitrage Bots will always go back down to the very bottom layer where $1 is leveraged up to $30 $40 inside the ecosystem so it's like literally able to Leverage The Leverage the ecosystem uh in a decentralized money money market literally that's because that's what happens within communities like like an oil field town right a bunch of money comes in because they're drilling oil and then all of a sudden the oil dries up and everyone leaves but there's still a few people around spreading money around but it's not as much as it once was you know and then they go off to the next town and then so there's still a little bit of flow of money going from here to there then that's the booom town and all of a sudden it it collapses so that's just how economics in general work and that's what he's building he's even built a like a drug addicted uh economic system to where every now and then the money falls down or the person or the economic model falls down into a loophole of uh C catastrophe and uh that's why those tokens are down there they're literally just seemingly continuously being pushed down forever and uh you need that because that's dead liquidity and those dead liquidity ends are what's needed and that's another vital thing within this ecosystem of a tra being able to maintain control and uh help push um py and I believe help Peg it and maintain it through methods that we've never seen before yeah any more questions guys oh there's hudle I invited you to speak butd if you wanted to jump in and have a word or two I don't know who else was in here oh pup's in here too yeah guys if you want to te in on this one just give us a request I can bring us up and um we can check more about specifics so far I don't see any extra questions in the chat feed anybody want to T in with a new question um do they want clarification on some [Music] aspects I'm definitely going to be working on like an actual little like a a write up that I can have more of a Blog style type thing that's going to have a all the models all the screenshots um you know written out and explained um because I know sometimes it could be a lot of information um it's just I know the community here is strong there is a belief here but um [Music] it seems like it's just getting stronger and stronger by the day and um this is you know I've been studying this and going after this for months and months and months and months um and I already had a had a very good feeling of it doing of it reaching Peg and now I'm uh absolutely um blown away at what I'm uh had happened and uh that this is going to be what is is uh not only going to Peg Pei but any other big one of the any other bigger protocol within the ecosystem will also be able to uh reach it reach its parody um through this model and just how big brain it is and how randomly I just randomly stumbled upon it today I was in a private chat with huddle and couple other guys whenever I started just spamming the chat like I usually do with uh for | BTC Upload |

OertKOWSTDM | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OertKOWSTDM | Aussie Add-ons: Liberating Australian catch-up TV with Open Source | welcome everybody it's my great pleasure to introduce Andy budding and Glenn guy who are white and then television enthusiasts who are talking to us today about their project Ozzie addons thanks busy so I'm Andy this is Glenn we've been working for some time on this project called Ozzie add-ons it was known as XBMC catch-up TV au which was a bit of a mouthful and over time we sort of diversify a little bit from just catch-up TV to to sport and other streams as well so are the add-ons and yeah we're liberating Australian catch-up TV with open source so we've got a bit of an outline here we're gonna start by just talking a little bit at status for the project some of the add-ons that we support and then when you go into supporting a users some of the communication channels we have a little bit about it development Glenn's going to speak a little bit about the work that we've done to support DRM streams and then we're going to talk a bit about some reverse engineering efforts that we've gone through to make this happen and then towards the end we'll have some live demos hopefully if everything goes to plan and then we'll finish up with some of the challenges that our projects our project faces so I just want to find out how many people in the audience are using Kodi Media Center okay a few how many of you have heard of our project and how many of you are using our ons great excellent that's really good so I won't go into much here as most of you already know about Cody but the add-ons for Cody written in Python code itself ships version of Python in it so we're outta leverage most of the standard Python libraries and Cody itself exposes some of its functionality through Python as well that we can hook in for you know enabling disabling functions and things like that within Cody itself so so we're able to to build quite sophisticated add-ons with with with the power of Python and code is great because it works on a lot of different platforms too so we're able to support users across a really wide spectrum of operating systems and hardware so currently the project status is that we we're supporting all of the Australian free-to-air catch-up TV stations it took a long time to get to this point and it's it's a difficult target to meet because the the services themselves change very frequently and quite often the only the only way that we know that they've changed is we start getting a heap of error reports and so there's sort of a catch and kennen mouse game of trying to catch up and and we've been pretty successful with that so far so all the Australian free air streaming services we support catch-up TV live TV for most of the services that didn't have that and we also have captions for most of the channels as well so we've we've brush down to some sport add-ons as well I think AFL is probably a most popular the I think I felt one of the most popular one of the things that makes the AFL and so popular over their users is that telstra allow it was a Telstra mobile customer you can get access to two AFL and some of the other services as well as a mobile customer you get free access so you're actually able to watch live AFL matches with that but the real the real benefit of using our add-ons is you can actually watch them on your television the I think the licensing licensing arrangements around Telstra's streaming of live games is that they're meant to be for mobile only but obviously watching a football game on your phone isn't a great experience so so we're able to to provide that to provide access to that through CODIS so you can watch on your TV resolutions not the best but it's definitely watchable and it's definitely better than listening to the radio streams we support NRL Glen's done a lot of work with the NRL and netball add-ons and they leverage the same a lot the same technologies the AFL they're all kind of done through through Telstra some sort of partnership with Telstra I think they've done a lot of the work so a lot of the authentication mechanisms and a lot of the distri methods are the same across all of them so so it's generally a fairly fairly easy it's easy for us to support us in the future we'd like to support Foxtel play Glen has been doing a lot of work with that Foxtel play is a little bit harder for us because of the dear end that it uses but we're working through that and I had a user contacted me recently about cricket Australia and he he provided me a lot of debugging information so that's helped Kickstarter and I think we should be at offer something around that pretty soon I've got Optus football on there as well I think Optus do the Premier League EPO yeah and I know there was a guy who was looking at that but I don't know the status of that there's nothing coming soon anyway so with the user support side we've got a website that we wrote in Jekyll Jack was really nice because we can all the content in in github the pages are all in markdown and and it sort of goes through a templating engine and were able to generate static HTML from that we've got this really nice workflow where any commits to the github repo will trigger a Travis CI job which will automatically do the build of the website and push it up to s3 where we have it hosted so it's it's really slick and hosting through s3 is is really fast static HTML is works quite well for us I think we've got a slack channel you see the link there if you go that link you could put your email address it'll send you an invite and get access to the channel I think roughly maybe 80 80 people or something we've had we've had sign up so far in probably six or eight months that we've had it running that's been really really helpful because we've been able to work through some issues that some users are having so like some obscure edge cases and things like that been it's been quite good yeah we've got with the Twitter as well don't have many followers we aren't really been all that active on there yet but any updates going to that now so so if you just said follow that to give those updates err reporting error reporting we've we've got a mechanism now whereby we we catch a lot of the exceptions that are thrown in Python in our owns and when we catch those exceptions we now prompt the users ask them if they want to send an automatic error report those error reports go up to a github as a github issue to a separate project that we have and within that error report we we attach some information about the users platform like what OS what version of Kodi they have what's the version of the embedded Python things like that we also include some of their geo IP information so we'll include like who is that we look up from their public IP what their I spears things like that and that's helped us debug some issues around geo blocking and certain IPS or or whether or not users using like VPNs or proxy services which which don't work a lot with a lot of these services and we attach the the full cody log to that as well so we can have a look through and see the whole stack trace and see what the user was doing to to get to that issue so that's it's really really useful for us to see especially if we've got if there's an edge case on some hardware that we haven't tested or if there's you know like some cases with Android or anything that we haven't really been able to catch in our own testing we can we can often get from these reports from your users we'd like to in the future add some sort of analytics because we we we know we have a lot of users because when things break we get a lot of emails which is really nice but it would be really nice to have some more concrete information about how many users we have and what kind of platforms they're on and get some idea about maybe where we should be focusing our attention to maybe more popular setups and others and just to have an idea about a better user base so we've got our code on github we have our own github organization called Aussie add-ons github get-ups great really for us we build all our ons through Travis CI like I mentioned before we have a really nice workflow where we can any commits to any of the add-on github repositories we'll go to Travis CI Travis CI will do the build for us build a zip file that in the format that Cody needs and then it will push it into the repository for us so we have a testing repository and production repository and any commits will go to the testing repository and then once we're happy with the how the testing goes we can then tag a release and then tag releases we'll go to the production repository so that for users that are having problems we can direct them to the testing repository they can test out if they've had specific issues that we've been looking into and then what so happy we'll just tag the release and and send it off and Travis CI handles the rest we've been able that the process we had before for deploying to to our repositories was was quite cumbersome involves XML zipping things and pushing things around and it was a pain that NIC really so to automate out with Travis CI has been a real bonus and it definitely speeds up our our deployment time so for a development wish list we'd really like to do some code refactoring because a lot of the code is it's it's old I think at the time we've got a lot better at doing Python and doing work with arounds just as time as the issue these days we'd also like to include some integration testing and unit testing I'd really like to have I'd realize have some integration testing so that we could test that we can hit the streaming services get a get a streaming URL and attempt to play that as a full kind of into end test not sure how I'm gonna achieve that yet I'd love to with Travis CI but with the geo blocking all the Travis CI servers are in the u.s. so that'll fail for our Australian stuff so more more thoughts needed there so I'll pass to Glen Glen is gonna talk about his work with DRM streams hello everyone okay so yeah I want to talk a bit about DRM boo it's not the most most popular thing to have come in the last several years but to give a bit of history about how it's all worked within Cody so for quite some time now probably forever I guess Cody has used the ffmpeg libraries to to handle playing streams and and decoding everything else like that for the most part it all it can do is files that are in containers like you Matroska or or AV or QuickTime and also HTTP HTTP Live Streaming so but fast forward to where we are now we're having a lot more content providers provide their content in with MPEG - and to a lesser extent Microsoft's smooth streaming so the way that the Kodi developers have dealt with this issue instead of trying to build everything all into the core Kodi components they've added a extensible interface for input streams and that's where we've had in version 17 there's been developed one called input stream adaptive to deal with the adaptive bitrate streams that we have like - and smooth streaming and HLS as well so with that the developers of that have also added in books into the code for us to use third-party modules for DRM and other types of decryption so with that we've they've one of the dear popular DRM options available that's been wildly supported so far is Google's wide line and we can support that most 7 + & 9 now I think two of the ones that that use that that decryption screen skiing the DRM scheme and so what we are sorry demo time oh just a minute yeah so we can code like the code II can't distribute these third-party binaries with with coding itself but the the Widevine module which is responsible for generating the challenge and getting a response from from Widevine itself is bundled with google chrome and that's available for most of the platforms that we use so whether it's Mac or Windows or even as well is available so that and as well as a wrapper module which is part of inputstream adaptive is needed to to be able to watch these streams the problem then comes for end users where it is it's fairly difficult or not difficult but it's it's not a straightforward process to to find these and download them and put them in the right spot and get everything working nicely so that's where we've developed the DRM helper add-on that is a used as a dependency for our add-ons that need it and yeah it helps us get a start to finish happening pretty easy and we'll just give a quick demo of that yeah yeah okay Cody sit up here yeah it's a fairly almost almost fresh installation so we're going to go in and install the Aussie add-ons repository which we've prepared a link to earlier this is pulling it from our from our website there we go the repository is installed okay and we'll go and install the nine now add-on from the Aussie add-ons repository there we go so it's installed the drm helper dependency there you might have seen flash up on the screen yep and we'll may I find some content that's it's it typically tends to be overseas productions where I imagine their licensing agreements they have say that we need to go a little bit step further than than just the HL s which is quite easily there's third-party tools around there to easily circumvent it and download it whereas what they're doing here with the wide line stuff is that you know an end-to-end solution that yeah it keeps the decryption key safe there's there's no way to kind of really yeah take the content for for your own use you can watch it and when they don't want you to watch it anymore it's gone alright so we've gone to play this content it's now prompting is saying that input stream adaptive isn't actually installed on the system and isn't available in any of the repositories so we'll go ahead and ask it to download that which we host up on our own organizations repository convert we've compiled ourselves there we go it's installed the next thing we're missing a little wrapper library that comes comes with it so we'll grab that as well that puts it in the appropriate place there we go and lastly there the the the the the module that comes out of chrome itself so we're going to grab that directly from Google server now 4G connections struggling a little bit down here and the depths okay all done and with a bit of luck buffering so we say Indian hey guy okay okay so I've done the demo okay so reverse engineering so I mean this this project started with with I view I think I view was was probably the first to really do catch up to be really in Australia so when we started with that we did a lot of work with Wireshark and we did a lot of work with Charles proxy Charles proxy is probably the most useful for this when we were when we were reverse engineering kind of the the desktop browser type interfaces so it integrates really nice with Firefox it'll show you it'll show you you know that the content of all of the HTTP requests you can see all headers and and all that sort of stuff and then you can start to kind of pick it apart and work out how everything is generated that we sort of moved on from there because to our advantage the the TV stations have moved to providing mobile apps and the benefit we have there is that the mobile apps connect to the server using a much cleaner better defined API rather than the older sort of JavaScript method so what we do now is we use a combination of like man-in-the-middle type snooping so we've got some tools and I'm gonna run some demos for that later and when things get really serious we start decompiling some of the mobile apps and then we've even modified Android apps to help us discover how will discover keys and and things like that that are used to sign requests so so for the men and middle stuff we use MIT em proxy which is a really neat tool written in Python and I've got to set up where I've connect my my Android device to my laptop I said man they're the MIT and proxy up in a transparent proxy mode and set the gateway on the phone to my desktop so I can see all the traffic going through there's a bit of a complication there with with the SSL Certificates MIT and proxy provides us a set which you can install on your mobile device but with Android security its they've been improving security the last few releases so there's a few there's a few gotchas there the first one is SSL pinning SSL pinning is it's a technique where they I think we've mostly seen this in the AFL add-on what they tend to do is they'll include a copy of the certificate that they expect to speak with on the API end and they compare those two certificates and if they don't match then they failed at the SSL verification there's a couple of ways around that in Android less than seven you can use SSL unpinning - which is an exposed module I don't know if you know much about like Android rooting scene and stuff exposes a nice framework that you can use for modifying the internals of how the Android system works with Android grade and seven or seven or greater you can use magic which is which is a very similar method but bit newer a bit more advanced there's a couple of modules there if you're interested in that in Android seven and greater there's another feature that Android included which was not trusting user certs so we have to take another step where we we install the MIT M proxy certificate as a user cert and then on a rooted device we're able to convert that certificate from user cert to a system certificate and then it is trusted so it's it's tricky to find these out but once you do it becomes trivial so I'm gonna give you a demo of this this is I've got my that okay so you can see I've got let me show you the script I used to start this you see that alright so we do some standard kind of IP forwarding stuff that I'm sure you've seen before I've got some IP tables rules here which then direct anything from port 80 or pour forth or three over to the port that the MIT and proxies listening on and then I started in transparent proxy mode there so I've got it right here and I can show you I could just start up I've you there and then you can see the requests are coming coming in so let's have a look what we got here what I'll do is I'll apply a filter and I'll say thank you most so so that just applies a filter I'll only show me any requests to serve as a start with I view and then I can have a look and say look at the response I can start to see you start see the Jason return that that generates this display that you see on the phone here I can open up one of these programs and I can see that one there and that shows us all the details about the program and so we can we can puzzle this and we use it to generate our lists in coding and then if I start that you'll start to see this one in particular we can start to say that there's in that get request there's a there's a string they're starting with sync up here so that that shows us that the the request is being signed by something magic that we don't know yet so the aim here is then to find out how that works so I'll stop this let's go back to here so this brings us to decompiling Android apps so there's a few tools here that that come out of there kind of security analysis space and we can use these tools to to peek inside the the Android apps themselves and and start to see how they're built so I've got a so this is a tool called jeddaks GUI this is great because we can just open up the Android app and it basically converts the compiled Android Dex into into just about readable Java so what I'm going to do is I'm going to show you this file here that's a little bit small but you don't really need to see too much of that if I go down to if I go into here you can see there's a there's a function they're called token so that's that's where the magic happens and we can see that in this line here that's the URL that we were just looking at you know you no matter the middle snooping so we can see that there's a secret value here so that's really what we're looking for we're looking for that secret value if I look at so look into this one so this was the function that was being called so this this uses a stone a standard kind of Java function here for generating the kind of secret secret key type stuff not not that interesting there but if I go and have a look down to this one this is where it gets really interesting this is what we discovered was the this is the function that's providing that secret key so Paul Glen here actually went through all this code and and work backwards and worked it all out by hand but I don't know if you can see too much but there's it's pulling in all sorts of random random Java classes from all over the app that don't really make any sense and when it's calling secret key spec here it's pulling in all these things that that that really are kind of baffling comes down to here string response this is like like a weird array and then it does some staff and you know what's going on there so so we can see that there's something going on there and rather than try and work through it all like blended we might just might just go back to here we might just modify it we're able to use a couple of tools here the first one is apktool apktool allows us to decompile the Android app also allows us to repackage the Android app up when it decomposed it it's compiler decompiling into a language called smiling which is a bit like am an assembly tight language so it's not as readable as we were just looking but the benefit is that we can modify it and then repackage it up and the phone will will handle that so what I'm going to do is I'm going to start another demo here this one I think so I've got my decompile command here so what I'm doing is I'm just D compiling the D Android app okay that's done now what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna copy in it's a little utility called IG logger so I've copied that into where the div source is I'll just show you so it's it's kind of a bit nasty but it's enough that you can sort of generally understand what's going on but you wouldn't really want to be coding in this so I've copied this in this is going to help us this helps us do logging out to the console so now that that's in there I'm going to edit that file we were just looking at this is the API implementation file that we're just looking at in Java for scroll up to subscribe to here so this is our token method if I go down to this line here you could see per mp4 is secret so that's the parameter to the function and so in this in this language here we can see that that's that parameters being assigned to p4 so if I go back down to this invoke static line here is the first place that it's used you can see that p4 is listed there so that parameter is being passed through to the the crypt tools function so what I'll do is I'll just I'll just put a little line in here so that calls our logger function and I just pass p4 into that sorry I can't you sorry yeah no that's that's intentional it's a benefit of the language I'll just show you the build script for on it okay build so we use apk tool again to to package up the file we use jar signer and we zip align just standard kind of Android stuff so I build that just take a moment okay done so what I've done is I've just signed that with my Android debugging key so that'll sort of run and that's all it needed really I can now install this new patched version onto my handset success okay so it's still running that's a good sign if you haven't got it right it just crashes and then I can do I can use logcat okay so that's our that's our console for me for the phone and it'll just pick something alright so so with that so I'm passing logcat here through grep just to highlight the line that we find so when you see the red bit and we should see now secret key play and there it is and so there's our secret key I don't know why they've done that but it's using this kind of standard android java package name as their secret key so i go figure the poor glen here he thought it was a mistake so now with that information we can then we can then replicate that in python so the secret key those functions that were just looking at before they did their basic kind of standard SSL type functions there's plenty of support for that in Python so so it's very easy to implement from there once we find the magic so Glen talked about some challenges yeah look moving forward VPN in proxies they they still cause us daily headaches or not so much headaches but users it's causing them their headaches a lot of people like to run a VPN at home and yeah a lot of these services now are cloning on to people trying to geo block or circumvent the geo blocking so yeah that they're building up quite a bit of a blacklist themselves to deny permission to access their content through these services and so I guess one of the ways we're thinking about dealing with that is implementing our own blacklist for error reporting and perhaps having a little message to go with it saying hey if you've got you know VPN on maybe you should turn it off or be in Australia if you want to access the content something else that that plays a bit of havoc is these bad repositories that are out there that that contain all the gets highly publicized illegal streaming out ons that code is kind of a bit of a bad name for and one of the things we've found that they do is they'll include st. the same dependencies that some of our add ons need like the Python requests library but whatever version they're using they're putting their listing there's a newer version than what we have so Cody will automatically try and obtain their version of it which is in fact an old version and then things break so that's you just get really confusing this situation yeah yeah and and you know it kind of comes back to us and it's it's your add ons not working why it's your problem your fault so it's always a lot of explaining behind that and then the super repositories which is another one like where it's TV add-ons or super repo and they're like ugh regattas of sorts and one of the ones we've found is super repo redirects incorrectly to our github organization and 404 all the time and again a similar kind of thing happens people have our repository installed but I guess the super repo one comes up first in the list of all Kodi searching for the add-on to install and the dependencies and and things break again so so we've got to try to come up with a way to mitigate that somehow or at least help users out always playing catch-up that's another thing I mean Andy mentioned that before where you know I've you will decide to change their API totally or like the other week several weeks ago we had plus seven with their clever rebrand - seven and I'm sure that's not just the co2 users that are confused over that it's probably everyone in the country but it's their decision I guess and yeah they they switched they release their new app for seven plus and within about two or three days the content on plus seven and it pretty much dried right up there was about twenty shows that we're still on there as opposed to normally a couple of hundred I think so yeah so we all know that's there's something always better try and keep on top of and and I guess something else that'll be coming up at the start of football season four in RL n AFL I think and you know I'll be at our computers every season they they want to change how that how all the functions work and the earth works and everything so every season it's the same yeah and it's not too bad with the AFL one there's a constant live stream that runs on there so we can kind of test all the time like 24/7 if we need to they've got the the channel that runs on the till should Telstra box but with NRL it's there's got to be a game on to really do any development so I get this this kind of three hour window and then it's over and so yeah it's yeah bit difficult at times but yeah but on the plus side we do have some great users that are willing to they jump on slack and help us they bargain and we'll give them instructions and they just go ahead and do it and yeah it does really help things along yeah yeah yeah we've had some really good feedback and especially we find especially good feedback from people have small kids you know they they a lot of them are using ABC iView for for the kids Channel so there's a lot of thankful parents out there yeah definitely yeah I was one of them that's how I got started so so yeah that's it from us and yeah if anyone has any questions I'll be happy to [Applause] yeah I think I think we've got time for she was any love mythtv not at this stage no actually one of the things that I'm interested in is is maybe working with Plex plexus has a channels thing and I think it's Python as well but we we haven't looked into that yet I think there's a community around that as well but we haven't gone anywhere that yet oh yes okay so the question was that have we essentially essentially downloading that for offline viewing yeah looked into any sort of solution to help with people with buffering problems by you know offloading and building up a bit of a buffer of our own it's a bit of a gray area there where we're obviously breaking terms and conditions here but we've we've not had any issues so far nobody's no lawyers have come after us or anything yet but I don't know if you're familiar with the iview downloader this is a few years ago from Jeremy vissa the ABC contacted him and told him to take his stuff down and so I hope that we're sort of treating that fine line between you know allowing users to use open source to watch this stuff you know and avoid piracy as opposed to you know actually downloading it and and maybe really annoying these guys yeah yeah there are arm settings within Kodi I think in the advanced settings we can specify to to have it increase buffer size to try to download I'm not sure how well it works but I know there is that but as far as integrating into like a into a PVR type thing yeah that might be and where users would then have the added functionality of been out of record I think that's when we'd really start to anger some people more I'd love to actually though sorry so the question was there's lots of separate apps is there any plan or scope to be able to combine them into one aggregated app with all the content yeah what I'd really like to do is is break apart these these separate add-ons and like implement each one as a library and then be able to have one add-on that can interface to these libraries it's just too hard I think basically the way that all the streaming services work are all different and I think it would involve some sort of fetching and storing and then users maybe look at that index or something but that might I think that might require us to host something to to do that store that kind of information and we don't have the resources or yeah we don't know the resources to probably do that at this stage but from a user experience point of view I think that would be really really good yeah it is something I'm thinking about I think I think that's it is it yeah we'll be outside if you have more questions but thanks very much [Applause] | LinuxConfAu 2018 - Sydney, Australia | UCwNBhoT2-mR330G7JoXYXQQ | 2018-02-21 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en |

Nhk4eqV2UBs | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nhk4eqV2UBs | Lets Play Dark Souls Remastered! - Episode 12 - (Chaos Witch Quelaag and Ceaseless Discharge!) | I and welcome back to let's play the Dark Souls this is gonna be let's play Dark Souls episode 11 what I'm doing right now is I'm just using up these these souls that I have in my inventory so I can try to level up as high as I can really just trying to get that vitality and dexterity up so I put two points into Dex and that's as high as I could go so now we're gonna head on out take care of a few enemies and what's gonna happen up here is I'm gonna get invaded by a dark spirit and we're gonna have to fight that dark spirit so it's actually a really easy fight especially if you have a weapon for it which I do for now buying the crystal sword was a really good option but as we all know eventually the crystal sword will break the more you use it so there's that just killing the little flies because I don't want to have more damage than I need coming in I am suffering from some poisoned damage right now it is that's pretty much what this area is is just a whole bunch of poison damage so I hit up the bonfire again just to give that poison dot off in spending any resources to do it and I did just grab a soul item so I think what needs to be done is that needs to be used and we are basically what we're doing right now is we're getting we're restoring our humanity that way we can get invaded by the dark spirit this dark spirit in particular and you kill it you get to have it help you out in the quelaag fight that there it is dark spirit man neither Mildred so there's another large soul item she is nice easy dodge and she's dead about that easy it's really not that hard of a fight she can be parried to if you decide to go that route the only reason I'm even having this shield right now is because it's the grass crush field and that buffs up my stamina rapid regeneration so I'm able to just have that on my back and I didn't but the benefits of him moving right along I'm gonna pick this item up create a large titanite shard good upgrade material I was considering it the other day and I feel like what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna start migrating away from the crystal store because I know it's going to break soon and I think I'm gonna start upgrading my hand axe until I get a Black Knight weapon not sure when that will happen I do know of a place where I can potentially farm the Black Knights are not farming but I get a couple more chances so I probably go there and I'll try to get a Black Knight weapon but if I can't get the Black Knight weapon then I'm going to go ahead and keep leveling up the the axe that I started the game off with so this is a the quelaag boss fight if you have your humanity restored you're able to summon Mildred so that's what I'm gonna do but I summon Mildred I'll take any help I can get in all these boss fights some people like to do them you know just just them this boss is one of those bosses you can do that and that's how I did it my first time through but having manager Mildred there to be able to tank this boss is a boon and yes I know Mildred is basically just wearing underwear the wooden shield she's basically you know just completely naked but for whatever reason Mildred has very good resistances and she can handle this pretty well you can actually she can actually beat the whole fight for you and you don't have to even do anything if you don't want to but I'm gonna skip the cutscene just because this isn't exactly a walk for this kind of a playthrough so just gonna get right into it play because that's what a playthrough is you play one great thing about Dark Souls the music yeah that's basically her one of our biggest attacks there's a sword smiling she knows it's out that lab at you [Music] I don't know why but a majority of this fight she was right in the corner [Music] a little bit annoying I'm not gonna lie [Applause] [Music] so it was pretty much in yes much Quelaag is dead essentially what that means is I get to progress now right on up these stairs and next room I believe is where I can ring the second bell and we all know what the second bell does in case you don't know it opens up sense fortress and that will be where we go next because from there you get to go to a NR Londo [Music] interesting the usage of those giants how it all relates to what you're doing oh yeah and I made a mistake coming up here a mistake I didn't know how to fix and so I did something I didn't do in my twitch playthrough and you'll see that's a secret door obviously I answered the wrong thing near cuz I was trying to buzz through his dialogue yeah so that was my mistake [Music] so anyway when you kill those guys that's what happens those those things come at you and they can really mess you up fast leveling up a little more get that Dex up and getting the health up [Music] I didn't do a whole lot of cutting in this particular play through what I did do for I'm doing here is I just fast forwarded a few of the the more boring parts but so we're gonna venture on into the the lava area now the next area and in here there's gonna be another bonfire right there so we'll get that the demon ruins here we are [Music] make sure we activate that bonfire and honestly one of the next things we need to do is we're gonna have to go into the catacombs real soon here and get that bonfire aesthetic thing that you can get that will level up your bonfires that way we can you spend humanity level up our bonfires and stab them all set because it kind of stinks when you sit when you sit at a bonfire and then you only get five Estus I mean yeah that's probably a get good issue and I'm probably not getting good enough but for this uh this is gonna be another boss fight for this boss fight I'm going to I'm gonna use a different strand I used in my twitch playthrough for my twitch playthrough basically what happened was I ended up stumbling onto a stream where another new guy that hadn't played before was playing he was on this particular part and I did this before I started streaming and he was fighting this boss and he fought it in this weird way and I actually did it on stream the same way that guy did it turned out it was actually a harder way to fight it but it was more legit I guess you can call it this particular strat I'm gonna use for this fight is the more agreed-upon strat assessee I grab those clothes now he's awake so I gotta get out of his plane this strat is the agreed-upon strat that most posted speed runners use and all that stuff but essentially it just makes it it's honestly it feels like it's cheesy but makes it so easy do those strata not to do most of you Dark Souls players out there will probably know this trap I didn't until I ended up stumbling onto it I think it was I was looking through reddit or something and I found it a couple of youtubers have shown 20 basically its it does that and all you're gonna do [Music] just attack the same you literally take zero damage from a fight it's pretty much like free souls so what happens is you kill that boss and then the lava sort of dries up because he's like the source of it or something like that so you get some humanity you get some souls get a home where bone just in case you need to use it which I used excited feel like running I should have honestly like never used any of the bonfires coming in to here and I should have kept the one in like town open but I didn't that's what you should do if you do this guy's if you're confident in your and your skills on this game what you should do is you know just keep them up Blighttown bonfire and activate it don't use any bonfires after play log just light them and then when you beat this boss like I do his homework bone and it'll bring you all the way to blake town basically now i have to run all the way back to plate town and eventually you know make my way all the way up to fire length so that's what I'm going to do I'm going to go through the Quelaag boss fight area and yeah just keep making my way up and about the time we hit Blighttown I'm probably gonna just fast-forward the footage because I know I die for sure I die once oh and this this particular video and the next probably two videos are gonna be basically pre-recorded with no audio and I'm gonna be recording audio over them just like this one in the last two before it so starting in advance it's not more live like but after those videos I will be doing my recordings with my mic on in real time so you'll be able to hear my reactions I think there I tried the falchion and I didn't like the damage so I swapped it out immediately for the battle-ax but the crystal sword is pretty much pretty much done so it's sad because that that sword pretty much carried me through a lot of the content but I gotta move on so if we go up to the elevator you're pretty sure I swear I died died there right back at the bonfire I gotta make my way all the way back to the elevator again that elevator is is so bad it's like sitting there where do I go where do I go yeah check where you didn't check there you go good job one all the way up there's gonna those guys that shoot the toxic arrows they're basically what I'm doing here is I'm just going to kill them they honestly they need to die so getting that done died again we will back up the cool thing about this is when you kill those toxic arrow shooting guys they don't come back so that's that's pretty nice so you can take your time with this for me I have to take my time with certain things in this game or else I get SuperDuper irritated with it and you know it doesn't make any sense for me to not take my time with it so so my souls are down there but I have to kill these dogs first I think about the dogs you hit them with the arrow right they run straight to the ladder and stay there so you can hit it with the arrow once and then readjust your aim and you basically cheese the dogs to death just like that getting a little sketchy there but everything's fine of course that fly flies right out of my reach like a little d-bag more of these dogs they are so irritating because like they just can dodge anything and they have like this weird off knack where they can they can hit you faster than you can attack so I just got the Firekeeper soul that's the whole reason why you come down here really is to get that all right so I got that trollee little fly out of the way now it's time to start making my way back to Firelink shrine I know I didn't come close to grabbing all the items in light town but to be honest the build I'm running most of those items don't matter to my village anyway which I am running a quality build that's basically strength and dexterity and then health is to humanity to get a max heal real fast I don't know why I came back down here but basically I just need to go up up-up-up nothing away out of Laketown [Applause] Oh a chest I didn't find how about that the key to new and our Londo nice so that'll make a shortcut available to in our Londo which I'll probably be using that to get to fire link let me get that backstab trying to get that backstabs like pulling teeth I got it I just got a two-handed it's like the only way I'm gonna get a good backstab on these guys now I made it harder on myself so nice so basically what I need to do now is use the iframes from the back stabs in order to get these guys separated there now I'm doing it right got a two-handed get a get a higher backstab while they drop its poop so I'm probably not gonna pick that up it's no need for that unless it's like PvP and even it's still that's weird yeah so the shortcut is over here you go and you unlock this door and you get your shortcut to New Londo ruins I'm not gonna go into the Londo ruins just yet I'm going to go in here and use the elevator so that effectively unlocks the shortcut and we are back at fire link [Music] so that's going to first I'm going to go back it over here and I think I'm gonna upgrade my Estes she can't speak because that dude invaded her or something what happened I'll figure it out in in Londo but anyway that's gonna wrap up this episode of let's play Dark Souls remastered really appreciate you sticking through it and hanging out with

Sbq8tnbxxwc | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sbq8tnbxxwc | Hiking Liberty Mountain Horton's Loop Trail in Lynchburg Virginia Part 7, April 11 | so i'm back on liberty mountain and you can see this is where i'm at parked up here and i'm going to just try to hike around in here because i've never hiked any of these trails in fact i didn't even know they existed until about a week ago uh so we're gonna start off on bobsled which is uh right over here and i'll be hiking up into that uh you can see you know it's kind of a weird parking lot i just wanted to show you because i you know came down by the uh this is the indoor um swimming pool and the indoor track uh and then of course the soccer fields are over here and uh and then you just come down the street and this this kind of dead ends over here and then you get get onto the expressway so uh this will be uh this will be different i've never been here before it's been a beautiful day oh my goodness gracious so let me just show you a couple of the trails says this is monogram road i don't know how that's possible but uh and then this is a flames road that's 1.3 miles and then bobsled which is right here so we're just i'm just going to go up here on bobsled and get myself lost in the woods so let's get going and uh you could see i mean if you wanted to go to flames road that uh that'd be interesting i guess but uh i don't know i mean i've been checking this out i can't wait to see i i'm surprised there's no leaves on the trees i just came from north carolina and you know all the leaves are on the trees it's like um well it's between 70 and 80 today absolutely perfect weather so you can see how the trails starting out here just basically going through a pine forest i'll get another clip here in a minute so bob's blood well i guess this is still bobsled i thought i was coming into another trail here okay all right so kind of a kind of hiking up a dirt road here pretty cool look over here see the mountain all right let's keep going [Music] so here we got a a good choice here you got power line loop that's a 1.3 mile hike and then of course that's bobsled and mana monogram road i guess maybe going up this way and then uh and the thing i'm gonna do is i'm gonna do this horton's loop it's about two mile hike uh you know nice nice touch we're having the bench here i i guess this is it right here and then if you've i mean you got a lot of choices to pick from here well here's peak to peak now i've kind of done that more or less that's what peak-to-peak does it just goes from peak to peak now i don't know what this is i don't see anything marking it um maybe that's part of the loop coming back but anyway let's uh let's get on the trail let's get on uh horton's i think that's how you pronounce it h-o-r-t-o-n horton's loop uh two-mile hike uh should be fun and then uh preservation area please stay on trails and bridges there you go but uh look at it uh looks like a it's gonna be a good day for sure hiking around here on liberty mountain woohoo well unfortunately horton's loop is going down the mountain you know my philosophy on that i'd rather be going up when i'm starting out rather than going down because but anyway it is what it is got to be careful with these leaves here i'm going to take it nice and slow i didn't bring the walking stick today because uh i have no pockets i tell you i mean i i want to buy a let's go brandon t-shirt but none of them have pockets i am not going to buy a t-shirt without a pocket i mean i'm i'm sick of it i mean you know i anybody out there making making t-shirts uh conservative t-shirts i'd i'll buy them but i need a pocket all right so this is kind of what it's looking like right now it's a it's a nice hike you do have some leaves on the trees that's good so it's it's coming in just a little bit i was hoping i might see some flowery trees but i don't think i think it's too early in the season for for that in the spring here all right so i wanted to show you when you're more or less walking by a creek here uh unfortunately i'm still going down down down down and uh so i'm at some point it's going to be a tough hike back up but it is quite beautiful if you want to do horton's loop uh this is kind of what it looks like so far um but i wanted to get the creek on the video over here i thought that's pretty cool to watch that water running next to me as i'm marching along here so i'm not sure what the sign is supposed to mean this is i guess well it's for bicycles okay so if you were mountain biking this gaps very so yeah i could see where you could uh yeah you could you could get a tire wedged right in between these things okay that makes sense so then of course we got another little bridge up here so i just wanted to get this on the video let's get a look at the creek here that's kind of nice and then let's look up the creek and that's where we just came from so okay so we'll uh we'll keep going here boy this is really cool this doesn't make you feel like you're up on the on the parkway because this is what you see look at here looks like there's another trail going that way if you if you just wanted to get lost in the woods but i'm just going to keep going i wanted to get this rock formation on the video isn't that beautiful that's that's what you see when you're up on the parkway you know on the trails up there is these types of rock formations like that but uh really quite quite beautiful here got another bridge coming up it looks like i see another caution gaps very sign so uh pretty cool so far what oh here's uh i think this is another uh sign for the uh rotc so at least that's what i think those are for and uh because they get out here and do their land navigation so we're keeping on going so came up to another little bridge here with the creek rolling by very very nice so watch someone i always like to get the bridges on the video so now we're just kind of continuing along here i guess this is just going to hike all the way around to the back of the mountain here really quite nice trail i mean the other thing i like is being on this side of the mountain i don't think that you're going to see anybody i mean you know whereas when you get up near the snowflex uh facility um you know there's those trails are pretty heavily traveled the mountain bikers and whatnot you saw the parking lot was completely empty here i imagine most people don't even know that these trails exist like me i didn't know they were here you know i was just looking at the sign up at the snowflex and i was going how the hell do you get to these trails you know and i just happened to come down that road and find that parking lot and i was like son of a gun a whole new side of the mountain that i've never seen before might as well get over here but look at that isn't that cool so we'll be out here by ourselves for sure i mean i don't think i'll see anybody on these trails uh if i do i'll let you know but i i just i don't see how that's gonna be possible all right kind of a different look here i you know i came from uh it was the trail was really rocky back there uh so you would want some hikers maybe a uh a walking stick you know which i didn't bring today because uh i got no pockets that was my my bad i could have worn shorts today and at least my shorts have pockets on them but so i have to carry my keys and an extra battery for the gopro here but you can see kind of a different look on the trail a little green algae there just more or less down here in the sandwiched in between you know two uh well i want to say mountains i guess and i still continuing down unfortunately and man that's gonna be a that's gonna be a lot of up to go back on this trail but anyways it is really quite beautiful so coming up on the place where uh obviously they they're gonna need some maintenance here and i've gotta hike across this little stick here without falling in the creek so i'm going to cut the video off right there but we're coming up oh that's split decision we've seen that before um geez okay but all right let's see if i can get this hold on okay so uh let's see where we got here so we're gonna stay on horton's loop so we could you could do split decision and that you know where that'll take you around to the uh the other side where they were doing uh putting in the lake but you can see there's another little bridge right here so let's just stay on horton's loop we're gonna do that and then when we get back maybe we'll do another trail but this is what it looks like looking back through the woods really quite beautiful here i love this i love the sign here isn't this cool you know we got the got the post that's unique i haven't seen that before so but i do like how they really marked i mean way back in the day they didn't mark these trails real well but now they got them marked really really well all right let's keep going so i swear i'm looking the sign pointed this way there's the bridge you tell me where's the trail unless that's it going up right there i don't know or maybe it just whips around this way well either one either way i got to go up so i'm going to just swing it around the easy way here let's do that it's pretty wet in here let me get over here on this side all right well i told you you were going to go up at some point that's the trail if you can believe it because i found it again luckily they had it kind of marked here with these sticks so i'm pretty sure it's going up this way but uh boy you got to be careful i've already slid on these leaves a couple of times because i'm going straight up the side of the mountain with no walking stick this is not good i just don't want to bite the dust here well i don't know if you can hear me basically hiking up the side of a mountain here there's a sign way down there but i mean look at that where i slipped all the way up that and i'm still going up at least and i'm not 100 certain i'm on the trail but i don't see where i don't see where else did we go hey there's a there's a deer up there can you see him let me see if i can get closer shoot i can't see him now all right if i get if i get a good angle on him i'll cut the camera on see one one problem is being on a trail nobody nobody travels it's it's awful hard to find the dog on trail because nobody's really tracked i mean you can kind of see that some of the leaves are turned up just a little bit and uh see it looks like it's going up this way unfortunately the deer i scared him off i couldn't get another shot of him so it was pretty cool he he was a little guy so no uh no huge rack on and hunters the hunters wouldn't be excited by that that deer looked pretty thin too okay so yeah looks like trail's going this way i think still going up the mountain though you know that sign way back when showed a bike you know who in the heck could mountain bike this i don't i don't see how that's possible but i could be well i didn't think you could have mountain bike uh what was that uh one psycho that psycho trail but evidently they do mountain bike biking so but i just don't see with all them leaves and everything you would the tigers would just go right out from underneath you okay i i don't know luckily i'm coming up to the look looks like the top of the ridge here let's see what we got on the signs here real quick it looks like we're crossing actually three trails let's see let's see what we got okay so we're on horton's loop so this trail here hmm let's see what that is that is the uh idiots run and uh and then we got another sun i'm gonna stay on horton's loop because i want to just get the you get the trail in but let's see what's on this side here i guess this is another road or trail coming up let's see what we got i don't see where horton's loops go unless that's it here i don't know horton's loop okay well do you go that way or do you go this way looks like this way for the horton's loop i wonder what wonder what trail that is huh well let's go down there aways i didn't know her it was only 1.9 miles on horton's loop let's just hike back here even though it's not marked and see what we see so wherever i am i'm at i-12 whatever that means we just kind of hike down the road here and i'm just going to go a ways on it but uh it is uh well it's kind of up here on top of the ridge i like it because you can look off to the right and you're looking down the mountain and then you're looking to the left and you're looking down the mountain quite quite beautiful here on this little uh road i guess you call it anyway so i'm gonna turn around here in a minute because uh looks like this road is more or less gonna go down the mountain and uh i just assume not hike back up the mountain if i was going up i'd be doing it but i'm sick of going down down down so i'm just going to go a little ways further but this is kind of what it looked like and we'll get back on horton's loop uh here in just a minute and uh once i turn around on this road i want to see if it uh yeah it looks like it's just going to wind around and then down down the mountain here so i just went ways down that road and i think i think i'm on horton's loop i mean because it more or less is the same road i was on going the other direction uh so anyway you can see it's a little bit of difficult hiking with lots of rocks uh luckily they're not underneath the leaves i stepped on a rock back there underneath the leaves and man almost went down it's just twisted out from underneath my foot but uh you can kind of see what the trail's looking like coming up into a little little bit of pine needles here at least i think i'm on the trail all right well it's verified i'm on horton's loop so i'm coming up uh nice touch we got a bench over here looks fairly new and then let's see what trail this is this is uh valley view road that'd be on my sike probably but we're going to keep on on horton's loop going up into here looks uh looks pretty good looks like there's another trail back here i'll get that on the video when i get there there's a there's a cobweb knock it down there we go so there's horton's loop right there all right let's see what is what's coming up so i've come up on what's called playground which is .4 miles if i was in the mood for a lot of hiking i would do that if since this is only point four miles i like it that i'm up here on top but i'm gonna stay on horton's loop i guess it's going this way i mean it's pointing well if that's playground over there i guess it's got to go this way i mean that's the only thing i can think of i don't know why it's pointing that way but that's that's got to be playground i think i don't know the valley valley view five miler but i wouldn't expect to be going down that way to get back i don't know i don't know all right let's just go left i thought i'd get a clip looking back that's tough hiking on all these rocks without hikers on and just grabbed my tennis shoes and do that every single time don't i but i'm at i 11 and it looks to me like i'm just hiking next to valley view road over here so i if it if it does continue like this i'm just going to get over on the road i mean this is a you got to be a billy goat to hike this with the rocks twisting under your feet and everything i'm having to go slow whereas if i could get on that road i can make some time but i don't know maybe the trail's gonna angle off to the right now i'm not sure but uh anyway i'm gonna get over to the road as soon as soon as i can right here and then i'll just see if this trail continues beside it so i guess they're working on this for the mountain bikers looks like i'm making a turn away from the uh the road over here but you can see all this is new i guess that's what it used to look like right there huh this would be fun for a mountain bike but man i tell you look you know if you came off of this thing and hit that rock right there i mean that would just bust you bust you up right there it's kind of a weird place to put a put a jump like that i mean i don't know like uh i guess if you're if you're a real mountain biker this wouldn't bother you i suppose i still haven't seen anything to let me know what trail i'm on so i don't know just but like i said the road's up here so i'm angling away from it so i'm going to just keep keep following what i think is horton's hortons trail here i wanted to get this i mean you're more or less hiking down a drainage ditch i mean i'm not enjoying this trail at all i'm tripped over a route um you know because you got to go some dog on slow you know watching where you put your feet and you know and i'm like i'm hoping i'm going to go somewhere i mean who knows where i came in at i mean i could be anywhere on the mountains i mean i i mean i did i thought this trail was just going to be a quick two mile hike and uh i don't know if i'm lost at this point or what i haven't seen anything to indicate where i'm at so and i didn't bring a map i should have i just thought i would just hike around a bit and then just go on back but anyway that's it you know once again i mean i just wanted to give you a look back i mean who the hell can not bike that i can't even imagine how you would mountain bike that i mean you know i'm just trying to work my way down this thing but i'm pretty sure i'm lost i might be hours before i get out of here i'm good thing i well kind of an early start i started it too if i'm hearing six o'clock and i don't have a flashlight or a headlamp because i didn't bring my backpack because it does say valley view five miler i mean what are they gonna do run down this could you run down this i don't think maybe some people can i don't know how in the world would you mountain bike this i don't know you tell me leave a note below well maybe things will get better now we finished hiking what i call the drainage ditch still no sign i mean it is looking more like a trail now um but still going down so i don't know where i'm at but at least it's uh at least we're not hiking down a drainage dish no more then look looks like a trail now so hopefully this will be what we see for a while i'm hoping because i can make some time now [Applause] well all we can say is that we are on a trail because there's a wouldn't be a bridge here if we weren't on a trail but i haven't crossed anything for quite some time that's what we hiked down right there so we're at the bottom so now we're going to start working our way back up on this side um anyway so i mean i'm glad to see the bridge because that was the beginning of the question well i guess we did see these valley view five miler things to let us know or well here's something coming up hold on let's see what it says let's see if i'm still on horton's way or whatever it was called let's take a look hold on hold on sorry i know i'm getting too much video there's a couple of signs around here okay so we're coming up on something here let's take a look okay oakway oaks way goes that way 0.9 miles we're still in horton's loop i don't even know how that's possible well anyway i guess we're going to go back up the mountain at this point so now i'm going to get to enjoy what i think is going to be a trail instead of a drainage ditch and there's a horton's loop another uh another thing for the uh and then of course we're crossing alternate flight pattern you've seen that in past videos so let's see i should be heading back towards the car at this point i if it's if it is a loop i mean that's that's the way i interpret a loop is it's going to come around back to the spot where you you started you know who knows but we're just kind of down in the valley down in the valley valley is so low so i'm enjoying this portion of the trail so just kind of more or less a nice new bridge here looks like that they must have just put this in so and uh just kind of walking along the valley floor here coming up on j nine so wherever that is boy as i almost tripped again [Laughter] probably wondering man this guy's going to kill himself didn't he all right i'm gonna just get a brief clip man look at the size of these trees and that amazing there's a couple over there but uh you can tell i'm just continuing down the valley here i do worry about these leaves you know you never know when one of them timber rattlers is going to be hiding under beneath the leaves but uh so far i haven't seen oh man i saw this really weird thing i didn't i didn't get to see it but it's like a little lizard but uh i don't know what it was it was bizarre i was trying to get it on the video and it ran off it looked like one of those things out of star trek you know and little things that it was and just ran like hell all right but uh you can see that's a that's quite beautiful i'm enjoying the hike at this point i don't know where i am but i'm assuming that i'm looping back to the car at some point this is a long two mile hike for me [Laughter] i don't know maybe i'm just going so slow you can't appreciate how deep those leaves are i was coming up to my knees going through there so but uh that's what you get when you're on a trail that nobody hikes uh so anyway it's you can see it's getting a little tougher again as we're kind of hiking along the side of the mountain here you know looking up so yep all right see this is where things are going to get a little hairy i mean because the trail is cut in pretty good but it's leaving to the side and boy you can just these leaves can get slick on you and we'll take it nice and slow here i thought this was pretty cool you can kind of see some of the trees have come down here and they uh you know they obviously came back here and cut it up there's the uh look at that size of that thing i wonder what why it uprooted like that you know and there's a there's another one up here operating interesting but anyway more or less hiking up the ravine at this point uh so i'm going going up up up i wanted to get this from a distance that looks like a dam it is a trail going that way i couldn't imagine if we got to hike up that holy moly i don't know i guess i won't know till i get there but look at that that maybe they're going to wind it back and forth going up that that slope there that's going to be interesting man look even just getting up through here is going to be tough you know on these leaves because they get they slide on you all right let's keep going i do wish they had more markers now maybe that little white thing hanging there is supposed to show you the trail i'm trying to take it nice and slow because i'm afraid my with the way this trail slopes to the side on these leaves it could slide out from underneath this is where walking stick you as mandatory for this trail man oh man this is crazy i thought i'd show you what i'm seeing there's another marker up there for the rotc but look at this oh my goodness gracious i don't man i'll tell you what i am for once in my life i'll be glad when this height comes to an end i mean this is sliding on the leaves and hiking along the side of the mountain here and you know and now i've looks like we're going to have to wind our way up up that i'm hoping once i get to the top up here that'll just be a a road or something and get the hell off of this trail boy i was looking i was going am i really on the trail and then i saw this coming up and i was thinking oh my god am i gonna have to go up that and then if you look over here that's that's why they got that little white thing there so it's moving off to the left but man these leaves are going to be deep deep deep right here i can tell i got to take it nice and slow but i guess the trail is going to kind of well i don't know what it's going to be regardless we got to get up that somehow i just had to get this on the video man those leaves you just sink right down in there and this is the actual trail can you believe it and i am going straight up the mountain here least i think it's destroyed and it's kind of working its way back and forth here a little bit well it's going to be slow going getting up this look at that you're going to be a belly goat to climb this thing problem is i keep sliding on these leaves and man if you if you go down you're going down the side of a mountain and i was looking but thank god for these little white things that's the only thing that's keeping me but the trail's going up this way and then it's cutting back this way man i'll be glad when i get to the top of this thing i don't know if the video does justice but that's what i just came up hiking along the edge here and that's where i'm going man i would never do this trail ever again not only is it dangerous in my mind it's a it's just crazy hiking through ravines and drainage ditches and up the side of well i don't even know if you what you would call this i mean this is a side of a mountain i guess i feel like my legs are going to slip out from underneath me at any second here oh man and man if you start tumbling down that you're a dead man so i'm approaching the top man i'll be a guy i mean all i can do is just just move like a snail here man you know i've already stepped on a couple of roots underneath the leaves and feet went up from underneath me i'm gonna be one happy camper when i get to the top of this i'm about that close thank god i want to get one last look at what i just came up and there's a little white marker and i think that's the parking lot right there man that was crazy i uh i'm glad to be getting back to the car i'm worn out no more hiking for me today this is uh this is it oh that was crazy not only i mean not only heart rate up coming up the hill the fear was i was actually scared coming up that thing you know because i all you know feet go out from underneath you and boom man you're around the hot side of a mountain i mean look at that that's crazy all right peace out stay free well horton's loop wasn't a loop brought me out on this road and i know well i got to figure out where i'm at because i'm going to have to hike back to the car i got another i got a lot of hiking just to get back to the car here this is crazy well anyway at least i'm on a road now i feel pretty safe i thank god that hike is over maybe this is another road here and head down to the car maybe i guess i'll find out okay i figured out where i'm at this is monogram road and this will take me back to the parking lot where my car is so uh i'll tell you what let's go back up here and i want to show you on the sign where we are and there there are a couple wasps flying around in this thing i but uh look let's show you so that you know where you come out if you decide to hike that crazy trail so if you look here's horton's loop we just came up we're right there okay and then i'm getting ready to hike down monogram road this way of course you could take it this way and get back to the snowflex so uh and that's that road right there and uh anyway yeah all right let's uh let's see what's oh there's valley view road you could take that all the way over all the way across the mountain if you want to looks like okay let's get back to the car so we're just going down monogram road saying it's a nice little hike down the road at least i'm not terrified anymore i figured i'd just do the mantra freedom on freedom good to soon be back in the free state of florida where we have no vaccine mandates no jab requirements and we are free to come and do as we please oh and no mask requirements and uh under the great leadership of governor don sanchez and if you're a democrat you don't go to florida don't come anywhere near florida you uh you go to new york where you know you can mask up your two to five year old and well put five masks on them you know be sure and do that and uh and then of course go to california i'm sure everybody there you know you'll fit right in just you know put some cellophane over your head and you know wear 10 masks there you know and be sure and pay them high taxes man we want you to we want you to be taxed to death in those democrat states all right peace out stay free well there's the road finally down there at least i think that's the road that i came in on and so uh man i tell you you made the trail may only be 2.1 miles but then you got another mile a mile to get back to the car you know so it's uh there's a good day of hiking all that i wanted plus too much up and down for me today my knees are hurting at this point but this is the view from monogram road and uh just coming down the mountain and uh eventually i'm pretty sure that's the road that goes by the soccer center and all of that so i think not don't hold me to that we'll see so on the way back i just thought i'd get this i guess these kitchen mountain bike like this but how could you mountain bike that it's called downhill run 0.5 miles i mean look at that it's going straight down oh i wouldn't even want to walk it | ThatCyberSecurityGuy | UCqaoDlesyrlBaQxVX1lacVw | 2022-04-12 |

opKPniP1qIQ | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opKPniP1qIQ | Lecture on Linear Equations | hello class i wanted to do a little lecture on linear equations and before we get into that i wanted to do a review on plotting points because we will be graphing some of our linear equations so you'll need to know how to plot points if you already know how to do this you can go ahead and move forward and to the video skip this slide if not this should be a good review for you just to remind you of how to graph plot points so let's look at what we have here remember your ordered pairs are going to be x value first and then your y value and when you're plotting points you should start at the origin which is the point 0 0 so if we make red dot on there that's our our starting point that's like your home spot and you're gonna use the ordered pairs as directions to get to where the point is that we're talking about so the first value the x value either tells us if you're going to be moving left or right so think of left as your negative values and write as your positive values when we're talking about the x axis the y value is going to either move down or up so up is your positive values down is your negative values so let's look at our first point here we have negative five comma four so in the x direction we're moving negative five so that's a left direction and then positive 4 is an up direction so let's figure out what we have going here so left again remember we're starting at the origin or zero zero we're moving left five so one two three four five and then up four from that point is one two three four and that's going to be our point it's left five one two three four five up four so that would be considered the point negative five comma four okay let's look at a another one so this one is saying 4 so that's a right or left so a positive tells us right and then a negative 3 is telling us that we're moving down so again we're starting at the origin we're moving four to the right one two three four and then down one two three so that's our ordered pair four comma negative three okay and as i'm going through if i'm moving too quick remember you can always pause the video so the next one is zero five so zero means i'm not moving left or right on the x-axis we're staying on the y-axis here and then positive five tells me to go up five so zero up five one two three four five so that's zero comma and then the second one let's change this looks wrote it backwards so let's do negative six zero so the negative six tells us that we're moving left and we're gonna stay on the x-axis we're not moving up or down so one two three four five six and we're not moving up or down okay now before we move on let's try one to see if you can want the right point so let's try negative two comma negative three so take a moment pause and try to do that one and then when you're done come back to the video so this tells us left and this tells us down so left two down three that's a negative negative 3. okay so hopefully you were able to plot those points and just a little refresher before we move on to linear equations so it'll be helpful if you take notes as you're watching and if you feel like you're familiar with something you can fast forward if you need to slow down a little bit remember you can always pause it is helpful to actually take notes as you're watching the videos okay so linear equations have a few different forms two of the forms that we're going to look at are standard form and your point slope form so for standard form we have ax plus b y equals c so for a linear equation notice the exponent on your x and y is a one if we get a squared here then it changes the shape of the graph so for a linear equation we want our exponents to be one and this would be an example of a standard form linear equation what this is good for is it's easy to find the x-intercept or the y-intercept when it's in standard form those are pretty easy to find and we'll look at that in a little bit but this is just to give you an idea of the different forms slope intercept form this is one you may remember a little more y equals mx plus b this form allows you to find the slope which is your m variable and the y-intercept which is the point zero b so you can see where the m is located where the b is located so for our example these are the same lines they're just in different forms the m the slope of this line is the value in front of the x negative two thirds and the y-intercept of this one is at the point zero comma three so we talked about graphing points earlier so once you have a point and you have a slope you can graph the entire line that's what's pretty nice about having it in this form already it's pretty useful to find these parts and also for graphic a couple other types of lines that you'll run into is a vertical line so this is an equation where you're missing the y value you just have x equals some number okay so in this case it's x equals five so this is all ordered pairs where x is five so we wouldn't be able to list all of these but just to give you an idea is this is what we're working with we have x and then all of our y values so it could be the point five negative three five zero or maybe five two these are all points on the line 5 equals x so if we graph those points they're all going to be over to the right 5 1 2 3 4 5. we have the point five zero we have the point five negative three and also five two so this will give us our line that's our vertical line x equals five so it's sort of a special case that you're dealing with there and another one is a horizontal line and this is an equation where we just have the y variable and the value we're missing the x so same idea is you're gonna have all the ordered pairs where the y value is negative three so if we have negative three negative three negative three again we're not going to be able to list any of them really when you're making a line you need two points and that will get you enough information so again it won't matter what values you pick here all of them are going to be on your line y equals negative three and so we have two negative three we have zero negative three and we have negative one negative three these are all example of points that are on your horizontal line y equals negative three okay so those are sort of some special cases of dealing with linear equations let's move on to talking a little bit more about standard form and slope intercept and using tables those types of things so for this linear equation there's going to be different ways to graph we've sort of looked at using ordered pairs on that previous one and that's the same idea here is you're going to make a table plot those points and then you can connect them to make your linear equation so let me show you how to work through using a table we have an equation y equals negative two x plus three think about what form this is in and this is in our slope intercept form so let's start with making our table for negative one so negative one is the x value we're going to plug it in and find the y value so i'm going to have y equals negative 2 times negative 1 remember when a variable and a number right next to each other they're being multiplied plus 30. and we're just going to simplify here to get our answer so negative 2 times negative 1 is 2 plus 3 so y equals five so this is our first ordered pair that will be on our line negative one comma five and we can want that one in red so negative one so left one up five two three four five so there's our first point and we just work our way down and create our table by plugging our values in so let's do our second second so this time x is zero same idea we're gonna plug it in negative two times zero plus so y equals negative two times zero is zero plus three so y equals three so this time we have the point 0 was our x that we used and we arrived at a 3 for the y value so 0 of 3. so notice that this is also considered your y-intercept because it's on the y-axis and look at the b value that's over here remember we said that the b value was your y-intercept so as you get comfortable and you know it's in the form this is one point you should be able to look at this equation ago there's one point i already know one let's get it done okay now the next point i want to try these last two real quick on your own and see if you can come up with the values pause me and then come back okay so hopefully you've tried now so we're trying with one so y equals negative two times one plus so y equals negative two plus three y equals so i have the ordered pair 1 from my x comma okay so one and our last one is two so we have y equals negative two times two plus three another color two and we have y equals negative four plus three y equals negative one so we have the point two comma negative one and two negative one okay so you can see our line that's being created here from those four points really we could get away with two of them um but we did before and as you get more comfortable you'll be able to use this slope as sort of your rise and run so that negative 2 is telling you that your line is going to be going down to positive 1 down to positive 1 down to positive one and that will keep on going and create more points so that's another way that we'll look at graphing too so let's make our line here it's going to go in both directions so that's making a table of values to you can use it to graph or you can just make a table of values let's look at standard so we talked about standard form a little bit and we uh discussed that this is good for graphing when you just find the x-intercept and y-intercept so to find the y-intercept of the line so where it crosses the y-intercept we have x equals zero every time so x is going to always be zero um when you're finding the y-intercept and y is going to always be zero when you're finding the x-intercept so what i can do is that same idea of making a table so i'm going to plug in 0 for the x to find the y-intercept and i'm going to plug in 0 for y to find the x intercept so let's see what that one looks like and again remember we need two points to get our line so this will give us enough all right so let's do the first one we're plugging in zero for x so i have two times zero plus three y equals 12. and 0 here so 2 times 0 is 0. so that's the the nice part about doing this process is your variable is going to cancel out that's just going gonna leave us with three y equals twelve and to solve this we divide by three since we have multiplication here and that gives me y equals four so my first ordered pair is going to be zero left and right but up four so this is my y-intercept it's where the line intercepts or crosses the y-axis the other one that we have is our x-intercept that's when y equals zero so we have 2x plus three times zero equals 12. so this time we're plugging in 0 for y variable now so we plugged it in for the y same idea three times zero is zero so you're left with just two x equals twelve divided by two since we have multiplication again and that leaves us with x equals six so our x-intercept is six to the right up and down zero and then if we connect our dots here hopefully yours are connected a little better than mine um that gives you the idea so you can use the x-intercept and y-intercept to also find the line or to graph the line and when it's in standard form like this one is the a-x plus b-y equals c this is usually your best approach let's look at slope-intercept form and using the slope and the y-intercept to graph our line so ideally this is what you get to is this is probably the fastest route because you're not making a table each time you're just looking at the parts the only thing is you need it in this form so notice with this form we have a y isolated it's not a three y it's a y so there's just a one in front so your goal is to move everything away from y so what we have is right now we're in standard form this is the equation that we were just working with so we're going to put it into slope-intercept form by moving everything over the first thing we want to do is move x over i'm going to subtract 2x from both sides so that's going to give me 2x minus 2x is 0. so we're just left with 3y now a habit here that i see a lot of times is since we're subtracting people like to put it behind the 12. but if you notice our form the x term comes before the constant so when i write this since they're not like terms and i can't actually combine them i get negative 2x and this is a positive 12 since it's not showing a negative there okay so we're close the last step is to move the three over again it's being multiplied so we have to divide it and make sure you divide everything by three and that gives us y equals negative two thirds x plus four now our goal is we're in slope-intercept form let's find the y-intercept and use the slope to graph these so remember our y-intercept is where it's going to cross the y-axis so this 4 here tells me that the y-intercept is at 0 4. so that's one of my points zero up four now the other point is found using the slope now you may have heard the term rise over run so that's telling you that the value in top is the rise so it's going to tell you up or down and the run is going to tell you left or right so we're going to start this time from the y-intercept because we're trying to graph the line that goes through this point so negative 2 tells me that from my y-intercept i'm going to go down to and positive three tells me right three technically that's enough to get our line we have our two points but this down two right three keeps going and what else happens is negative two thirds is the same as two over negative three that negative can float so the two would tell me that this time we're going up two and the negative 3 tells me i'm going left 3. notice i'm still on the same line just on the other side of the y intercept same idea this process continues and then you connect them to get your and if you go back and look at the previous one you'll see that these are the same lines we just use different methods to get them okay this still has the same as down two over three down two over three to get to the values so it still has a slope of negative two-fifths it's just different ways of graphing the line okay the last thing that i want to look at is just an application of linear equations so when you're working with an application of linear equations what you usually have happening is you have a rate or cost per item so in this case we have each ticket for a concert costs fifty dollars okay or if you're thinking about a taxi each mile that the taxi takes you charges you may be 30 cents okay those so those are happening depending on how far you go or how many you buy that's your rate now a lot of the times the other part that you'll have is there'll be a fee a one-time fee for this one there's a parking pass so you're going to be driving there the concert ticket gets you in the door but to park your car you have to pay that additional ten dollars or again back to that taxi idea is if you know usually the rates for taxis are when you get picked up there's a cost for picking up me it's five dollars to start with and then it's 30 cents per mile after that so that cost per item is your slope your slope okay this is your m value in your formula the one time purchase is your b that's like your starting point you have to spend the ten dollars to get your car there if there's four people in your car then you know that's going to change the price so there's two people in the car maybe just you in the car those change but to get the car parked as a flat fee of ten dollars and so if we want to write a linear equation to represent this situation we have y which is going to be our cost the total cost equals our slope which is the cost per ticket so fifty dollars times x plus the cost to park the car which is ten dollars okay so this is a linear equation that represents our our um situation here if you wanted to change the variables a little bit so that they represented the actual item so y represents the cost so we could use a c here the cost of going is fifty dollars per ticket so i could use t instead of x plus the ten dollars okay so this is still a linear equation we're just using variables that represent the items that we're talking about okay so now that we have a linear equation we have the cost equals fifty dollars times the number of tickets plus ten dollars for parking we can figure out the cost of how many tickets and a parking test so this is telling me that t equals three here so i'm just gonna plug in three so the cost equals fifty dollars times the number of tickets which in our case is three plus the ten dollars to park the car so we have the cost equals fifty times three is a hundred and fifty plus the ten dollars so the total cost is going to be 160 dollars when you combine those so that's setting up a linear equation to represent your situation and then solving the linear equation for a specific situation okay i hope that was helpful just a little introduction a little lecture on linear equations and the different parts different types of linear equations different forms that you're going to see remember you can always go back re-watch the video those types of things hope you have a good day | Ante Lope - GCU

neither bread nor water here we are sick of this unsatisfying food the people complaining in the wilderness were complaining of the miraculous manner they weren't complaining about some normal human food that they were eating they were complaining about the miraculous provision by almighty God of this heavenly food that descended every day we're told that on the ground in the early hours of the morning a dew formed and then this dust formed that could be eaten could be made into different foods this happened every day or every day except the Sabbath day for 40 years and yet the Jews complained of this miraculous daily provision we are sick of this unsatisfying food and my friends it seems that those words have echoed down Through the Ages within the Catholic Church the Fulfillment of the Jewish religion so many people whether they perhaps realize it or not are saying these very words of Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament we are sick of this unsatisfying food maybe that sounds shocking but that's the reality for many people quite clearly our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament is considered an unsatisfying food no wonder no one gen reflects when they come into the church before the Blessed Sacrament no wonder practically no one goes to confession and yet without hesitation comes forward to receive Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament in Holy Communion and no wonder so many lapsed Catholics have so many tips for priests about how they can get more people at Mass making things more interesting more entertaining more accessible we are sick of this unsatisfying food Maybe not maybe not everyone is saying this outright but there's a sense a misguided sense that we need to do something to make our faith more exciting as if Jesus in The Blessed Sacrament was not sufficiently amazing as if the holy sacrifice of the mass somehow needed to be made into a greater entertainment as if the experience of receiving Jesus in Holy Communion was so lacking that we needed to have the children doing a dance holding hands around the altar maybe have a band here we are sick of this unsatisfying food we want something else indeed you could say um you could say that the history of protestantism is that Echo we are sick of this unsatisfying food we want something else in fact the Jews on another occasion in the desert they say it says and this is from the book of Exodus the rabble among them had a strong craving for other food and again the Israelites wept and said who will feed us meat we remember the fish we ate freely in Egypt along with the Cucumbers melons leeks onions and garlic but now our appetite is gone there is nothing to see but this manner were ingratitude but even more than ingratitude it was a it was a lack of it was a forgetfulness of what was contained in the manner the capacity the power of the Manna because we read we read in the in the book of um wisdom chapter 16 we find out a little bit more about the secret power of the Manna in the desert the author of the book of wisdom tells us well he tells the Jews rather you nourished your people with the food of angels so he's speaking to God you nourished your people with the food of angels and with no labor on their part you supplied them bread from Heaven that was ready to eat filled with every delight and pleasing to every taste the sustenance you offered manifested your kindly Mercy to your children for the bread that conformed to desire of those who ate it was transformed to appeal to each one's preference so the miraculous thing about the Manna was not just the amount that came but it was the fact that if you approach the Amana with the right dispositions it seems like it tasted like whatever you wanted it to taste like what an amazing food so if you wanted if you imagined maybe steak it tasted like steak or or if you imagined chocolates it tasted like chocolate so what a great food to have during Lent but the the thing is in spite of the manner being able to being able to satisfy every desire every type of taste people complained about it it's because they had somehow forgotten this capacity of the manner what the Mana was able to do for them and perhaps it emerged perhaps it happened slowly perhaps it emerged slowly perhaps to begin with they they had a real Consciousness about the gift of the manner and the power that the manor had but then over time they just couldn't be bothered and the manner just became a piece of bread or it became like flower to them like like um Like Straw it was no longer delightful to them and I think that's what happens or the danger of that or the danger of something that can happen to Catholics in relation to our Lord in Holy Communion that even if you are um even if you are amazed you even if you are amazed continually at the miracle that that gods that our lord Jesus transforms a piece of bread into his own self and feeds us with his own flesh and blood even if you're Amazed by that miracle there can be a slow tendency to find the miraculous fulfillment of the manner unsatisfying maybe you wouldn't dare say that but sometimes our actions show this creeping in do you make serious preparation before Holy Mass do you form in your heart an intention for your Holy Communion because we could say that the intention that you have the Holy Communion is the Fulfillment of the manner we know this in in the benediction we say don't the Priestess partnership sisters which is at exactly those words I I quoted from the book of wisdom you have given your people bread from Heaven the bread which is full of all goodness or having in itself or sweetness so the Blessed Sacrament is the Fulfillment of the Manna in this way the manner it tasted like whatever you wanted it to taste like but the Blessed Sacrament has every answer to prayer the Blessed Sacrament contains the source of every virtue every Grace every transformation you need in your own soul and in your life is contained in the Blessed Sacrament the bread that is full of all goodness but to access this goodness we have to desire this we cannot just routinely walk up and receive our Lord in Holy Communion or otherwise before you know it practically the Blessed Sacrament is becoming unsatisfying food and why is it unsatisfying it's unsatisfying because it's not doing what Jesus meant it to do he meant it to be transformative he meant it to be totally satisfying but that takes some work on our part it means as I said we need to have an intention for every time we receive Holy Communion what is the thing that I wish to draw from this heavenly manner what is the grace that I'm asking for what is the transformative power that I am so in need of that's how that's one way of of ensuring that we find continue satisfaction from the Blessed Sacrament another way is thinking of Our Ladies words in The Magnificat she says the hungry he has filled with good things the rich he has sent empty away and I think it's Saint Louis to Montford relates that to the Blessed Sacrament those words that the degree to which we hunger for the Blessed Sacrament is the degree to which is going to satisfy us perhaps that was part of the uh difficulty that the Jews were having with the daily provision of manna they no longer hungered for it they no longer really really desired it so strongly and then they found it unsatisfying we have to we have to stir up in ourselves a hunger for receiving the Blessed Sacrament because as our lady says it's the starving that the Lord feels with good things it's to the degree that you truly hunger to receive Jesus in The Blessed Sacrament that you are going to be transformed by Jesus in The Blessed Sacrament and and in that way it will be you will find the Blessed Sacrament truly satisfying the hungry he has filled with good things the rich he has sent empty away and another a final thought about our lady's approach to the the Blessed Sacrament the grace is that we receive in Holy Communion are always going to be proportionate to Detachment from sin and hatred of sin um because we're only going to be satisfied with Jesus in Holy Communion um if we see if we appreciate the Holy Communion as this remedy uh as this remedy for all our weaknesses but also um as something that is divine Allah said about Holy Communion as a medicine but we can forget that Holy Communion is also Divine and as you draw closer to Divinity that entails leaving behind sinfulness we see that in our in God's preparation of our Lady to receive Jesus by making her immaculately conceived um and our lady was continually delighted by the presence of Jesus inside of her for the very reason that she was sinless the two things the two things follow one another and we're going to find the Blessed Sacrament satisfying for our souls the degree to which like our lady we are more and more detached from sin poured away from sin and this is going to mean regular confession weekly fortnightly and if you need it daily I say that because it's such a terrible offense to receive Jesus in mortal sin if you have a concern that you may have committed a mortal sin you need to go to confession before receiving our Lord in Holy Communion nothing shows greater irreverence to the Blessed Sacrament than receiving him out of routine routineness it says that in in the in the um code of canon law I think every aspect of routine must be avoided in approach to the Blessed Sacrament how much is our approach to the Blessed Sacrament routine no wonder that hand on heart all our needs are not being Satisfied by the Blessed Sacrament um I did think it was Saint Therese of Abel who said this but I recently read otherwise I think it was maybe maybe Saint Mary Magdalene Patsy she said one Holy Communion is sufficient to make a saint one Holy Communion is sufficient to make a saint if you truly desire um and if you're truly detached from sin and if you truly um are conscious of the power in the Blessed Sacrament single communion has all that you need in it a final um a final four a thought Saint Alphonsus um in his book on the Blessed Sacrament he says that um if he was going to doubt um the truth of Jesus in Holy Communion he said it wouldn't be on account of the possibility of God becoming man and then God being able to make himself truly present in a small uh disc he said he couldn't doubt that because God is God is divine God can do whatever he likes is all powerful but he said if I was going to doubt the belief of Jesus in The Blessed Sacrament it will be on account of the seeming indifference coldness lack of transformation in those who are receiving Jesus so evangelically one of the one of the best things we can do to share our faith is by growing in love of the Blessed sacraments and thereby hungering for the Blessed Sacrament and making that clear to everyone how much you hung for the Blessed Sacrament and that being saying evident in the amount of time you'll hear before Mass the amount of time praying after Mass speaking with Jesus once you've received him the amount that you are thinking in your mind or later today yes I'm going to receive communion later today what's my intention going to be all those things should be evident qualities of your life as a Catholic so much so that you become a proof of the real presence in your own life you become a proof of the real presence because you are conscious of the transformative power of the real presence may never even remotely echo in your heart that sentiment of the Jews who longed for the um the leaks the onions the garlic how pathetic how insignificant those other things are people longing for all kinds of novelties let us instead let us instead have a profound certainty that in Jesus in The Blessed Sacrament I have the answer for all my needs he alone will suffice me in and through the Blessed sacraments Ave Maria name of the father and of the son and of the holy spirit amen

8yTbcbMImgM | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8yTbcbMImgM | Missouri Governor Wants To Prosecute Journalist Who Found & Reported 100k Exposed SSN By #ViewSource | hey good morning guys how are you good morning good afternoon or good evening wherever you may be in this uh in this world i don't even say united states because uh you know we have um we have a reach that goes around the world here uh at leak u and um i just want to say i appreciate each and every one of you we have a very interesting story we're going to talk about uh today that well let me just say this that i'm about to school the governor of missouri and i hope that his you know helper or whatever you want to call him okay his his i.t department um whatever uh can assist him in in you know maybe giving him an understanding i'll say this uh you know hold on let me just share this out real quick and then then i'll then i'll say what i need to say because this is crazy here okay this is a little bit nuts here all right now we got issues here now here's here's here's the title of of the of the article but this is what's going on right now in missouri as of today missouri governor is vowing criminal prosecution of reporter who found flaw in a state website the st louis post dispatch notified a state agency and held its story while a problem that risked exposing the social security numbers of missouri teachers was fixed there's the there's mike parson there's the governor of missouri and mr parsons sir i am about to school you because sir i have to be honest with you you look foolish right now because what you are proposing here is absolutely bullish this is called the view source scandal hashtag view source that is the scandal that we're dealing with right now so what is the scandal what is what's really going on well tuesday a reporter with the st louis post dispatch alerted the state that social security numbers of school teachers and administrators were vulnerable to public exposure due to flaws on a website maintained by the missouri the missouri's department of education isn't that something your own department of education built a website and then this website it exposed over a hundred thousand social security numbers that belonged to the people that teach in your state and not only did this reporter notify the state of this flaw they also agreed to hold off on publishing the story while the department fixed the problem that way the the people's information would be protected the private information of these teachers around the states they did the right thing and see that's what people do in the field of information technology when a flaw is found in a website or if a flaw is found or a a spyware or malware or a zero day is found smart and i would say really people that have uh or organizations that have i guess you could call them hearts they got a heart but more so they have what we call a responsibility to notify the makers of the software that hey there's a flaw here and they give the maker time to resolve the flaw before they post or advise the world of the exploit that has been found that is normal i think that mr parson needs to contact a couple of software companies so that he can get an understanding on how this works in the real life but here check this out thursday governor mike parson started labeling this reporter a hacker and now is vowing to seek prosecution against this person he says quote the state does not take this matter lightly during his hastily called press conference he even refused to take questions afterward i would have loved to have been down there to ask a question but he did refuse to take questions now parsons said he had referred the matter to the cole county prosecutor and has asked the missouri state highway patrol to investigate this administration is standing up against any and all perpetrators who attempt to steal personal information and harm missourians governor mike parson i couldn't tell you how wrong you are and i'm an id professional of over 25 years matter of fact if you would like to contact me you can reach me at leaks online at gmail.com and i will explain to you how you are going down a rabbit uh hole of just because that that post-dispatch reporter is not a hacker it's not him you need to be blaming you need to be blaming your i.t department because guess what they're the ones that have been hosting this website for god knows how long they're the ones that are responsible for the html code that is in this website and they're the ones that are responsible for auditing it don't you have an audit every now and again being you're a state-run organization or you're you're a.gov no no no see the post dispatch reporter is not a hacker he's not to blame you see view source view source is something that is available in every website in the world matter of fact let me show you something sir you see um this is chrome okay this is what we call chrome and i'm about to show you okay what view source is hold on i can't believe that he didn't even like did you even consult with anyone huh now how do you view the source on a website well here i'm going to view the source on this one control u boom so you need to tell me that because that reporter hit the control held down the control button and then hit you and he's now are you going to call me a hacker because i'm now viewing the source huh because i'm viewing the source see some of the the data that goes into all data that goes into a website is written in written using and there's other languages but mainly html okay hyper mark right is hyper mark text language and i'm now viewing the source of the article that i just was reading to you so let's go to a missouri state website let's go to a missouri state website here okay so let's go to mmo.gov this is missouri.gov this is you right governor michael l parson okay so you've got this here right okay here's the source so now i'm looking at the actual source of your website this is view source i'm looking at the actual html code in your website mremo.gov mr parsons this is the code within your website it tells me the the various different categories that you have and you know all the different links that you link to and you know all of this good informational stuff and just because you hired just because you decided to hire and hold on a second let me show you oh sorry i didn't realize so let me show you the what the source code looks like okay here here we go this is mo.gov here's the source code all i had to do to get to the source code which is available on every website on planet earth was to hold the control button and hit you now i'm looking at your source code hashtag view source view source hold on just one second here hashtag view source that's the scandal that everybody's talking about right now hashtag view source so i'm now looking at the code or the source of mo.gov look early childhood child care colleges financial aid for college adult education libraries museums learn about missouri sir looking at the source code on any website does not mean that the person is a hacker okay and actually i i there's probably no telling how many people have viewed the source code of your website in life to fear that you would prosecute a journalist who not only found you know who did a view source on the website which all it is is you can even right click on some browsers and hit view source or even go up to the ellipses dot and hit view source let me tell you something if you source wasn't an option i can tell you right now there is a reason being able to view the source on a website is available to uh to all to the entire world all techies like i i don't understand this and if you're a techie you need to be standing up for this reporter and you need to be uh contacting the missouri governors a group of whatever you want to call them secretaries uh whomever and you need to let them know that he should get an i.t lesson before he comes out and makes an ass of himself because sir you have made an absolute full yourself and i don't know like who you're honestly i don't give a damn who you're going to to try to prosecute uh this case is not going to go nowhere this is pathetic people that don't have any sort of i.t home training or i.t skill training should get some before they come out here and try to pros you know announce charges and then prosecute a reporter who's just doing his job and then what's so called about it he didn't even release the article you guys he didn't even tell the world about this he waited for for uh the governor's uh i.t department to fix the issue so not any of those social security numbers that have been uh that were in the governor's website have been exposed to the public so here's my question how many people how many people have looked at the source of the website in question and have been able to save off those social security numbers that the missouri governor doesn't know anything about how many millions of people have hit view source do you realize that the source of your website is also digested into things like google.com the wayback machine duckduckgo you know you yahoo like come on really this is ridiculous and just because your your i.t department mr parsons didn't find the security flaw doesn't mean that you blame the reporter that did amazing just amazing but anyway that's what source code looks like and and quite frankly sir um you need to go have a conversation with your i.t department before you proceed any further on this because i'm telling you uh the the the um the geek magazines and all of that they're already tearing this guy a new to be completely honest because they're like everybody's like what i kid you not guys go to any website you want here let's let's do this let's go to cnn.com right there cdn.com you'll see cnn.com okay well i'll tell you what you want to see something cool you look at that what did i tell you was the the button that you would want to to use in order to view the source it is what hold down your control button and plus the press the u or you can just right click on the webpage anywhere and say view page source that's it so you mean to tell me that you want to prosecute a reporter for being able to right click on a web page and say view source here's the view here's the source code for cnn.com look at that looking at the source code for cnn.com look i can see their their uh their link font type uh and i i know how to read html look they've got they've divided they've got their own divisions here look i'm just viewing the source code that's it it's i don't understand why you would say that a person who views source code as a hacker people that view source code are also programmers but again to view source code of any website go to uh tmz.com cnn.com go to your mo.gov website sir mr parsons and just right click on the just right click you know the right mouse button just right click and just choose view page source that's it people are feeling a little heavy-handed there aren't they but um yeah i just just because somebody can hit view page source and then find that somebody some dummy decided to go in and put you know god knows how many social security numbers in that code that doesn't mean that it be seen on the website itself it could have been commented out that's why no one noticed it and obviously let me tell you what else it tells me it tells me that since the inception of that website nobody's audited it nobody has went through and made any decent changes or they would have noticed it the fault lies on the governor in his i.t department the fault does not lie on the reporter who discovered it all he did was right clicked and said view page source i don't care if you're an internet explorer firefox whatever browser chrome safari all of them provide the ability the ability to view the page source that it's just i can't believe um that he's even how many how much longer does this guy have in office because baby for him to come out here the ones who risked exposing social security numbers was you sir it was your id department god knows how long those social security numbers have been sitting there in the source code and y'all didn't even know it um my question would be to the reporter i don't know if he made like a screenshot or copy or whatever but there should be some dates there should be some dates matter of fact let's go take a look at when the last time is that you even updated your site because what i'm doing is not hacking what i'm doing is absolutely legal okay we're gonna view page source let's go take a look and also there's one other thing that i want to tell you guys that i normally wouldn't tell many of y'all because you know a lot of you guys don't care about this type of stuff but i want you to know something did you know that if you typed this i'm going to put it in the chat did you know that if you typed this in front of any url that it will view the source of any web page did you know that it didn't even have to be him right clicking on it and saying view source if you just type and i'll just give an example y'all can even copy and paste it if you were to do views uh view dash source poland okay see um and you would have to do you know https or without the s depending on you know whatever if you have a certificate or not but if i was to do this right here i could legit all i got to do is put view dash source in front of the url that i want to view the source on here i'll put it in for tmz the one i just put in the chat there you go and look at that how do you know this is tmz all you got to do is read i bet y'all can find it here boop hold on look at that [Music] how do you know it's tmz there it is right there tmz's the title see title and then forward slash title is how you end that particular html code all html code starts with a head because that's the beginning and then you get into your meta characteristics then you get into your titles then you get into your links and how you want those links to be directed i could go into talking about html and and you know how it works i've written entire websites on html from scratch okay so here's a view source on tmz.com um here's something else you guys here let me show you this here's a view source on my website blakeyou hold on let me fix that all right i did that typo here all right here is uh my source on leaky.com there you go see look obviously you can tell that i am i have google analytics in place you can also see here that i have ads in place ran by script which is my um i don't just do just like advertising on youtube i actually have google ads on my website right all this stuff gets written into this this basically what we call a header.html file and then what you can see here is what title official homepage of leaky.com i've got yoast uh you know in and look leakyou.com is the number one site for leaks audio leaks video leaks media leaks so if somebody decided to go in here and put a hundred thousand social security numbers in my header file whose fault is that is that the reporter who discovered it or is it the person who built the website it would be mine because i built it only i would know the only person you know what i'm saying it's just the patheticness of it all but hashtag view source wow but there you go there's just an example you know of how you can view the source on any way here let's let's view source on uh interloper nation.com yeah baby shout out to interloper nation look at that [Laughter] look what's that say here i'll make it bigger look i make it bigger interloper nation a community for people of all races and if you've been to interloper nation.com you will see look a community for people of all races the only thing that's in this when you do a view source on this page the only thing that's going to be in that source is what you typically see here unless it has been commented out period so there you go um i i you know sincerely sincerely hope that somebody talks to this governor and makes him back on up because he's looking real foolish right now feel free to let him see my video or feel free to show the video to your other it professionals now i've had experience dealing with government professionals or government i.t people uh before and i already know that they're not it's not the same like in the private sector it's just not it's just the way it is um there's no way i could work for a government agency not because they're like five years behind right now i'd be talking about stuff i was talking about five years ago right but that's just a little bit of an i.t lesson there for you guys um again shout out to interloper nation we've got some really cool items coming through um the next i i would say a week or so i actually have been working on um getting some items into the merch store as well as into my my leaky uh merch store um and so i just wanted to let you guys know about that we've got some very interesting things and i'm gonna be really seriously

kind of like uh contracted staff you know for the other two years on the road and so I um we would we'd go around the us we would teach people how to win souls at that church every night pastor had a um service where he filled the fill the congregation up with the fire then they would come out the next day to win souls and so we would teach them how to win souls and then go out on the streets and their local area to go and just you know the win the loss you can do it it's that easy so I did that for about three three years in total and um and yeah it was just such an honor and blessing and just really really a great opportunity if you don't go to well we we do Soul winning here at our church we have a guy who heads it up who actually was trained by a couple people at the river but um SE winning is huge so if you're not doing that that's Kingdom Business right that that we're to win the lost and disciple Believers that's the point of everything that's what uh Jesus said that's what

Pastor Rodney called him up I think it was last year right after you guys been called and been you know uh put the night we were ordained was that the night you were ordained okay see I knew I either watched it or on TV or was there so listen he gets up I never heard him preach before I leaned over to Tom I'm like dang he's good like you just got ordained and he like he was oh my gosh it was good so um remember all these faces cuz they're that's my son um remember all those faces because um you're going to to she's going to when she tells the story I want you to hit in order to get um to the last birth we have to talk about the first and the second yeah yeah so that it's all explained so remember these little faces okay so um next thing is I want everybody to know um is you guys we're going to Fast Track to having a family then let's go really fast for people who are wanting to start a business have a business you're struggling you don't know like how's this all going to work out I know God told me to start this business but man this is rough money is rough uh employees are rough the whole thing right starting a business is a faith Journey it is and if you don't quit you get to the other side but tell us okay so tell us about your business tell us the name of it and um I have Tracy you have a um the name of it for us too so she'll be popping that up in case you guys ever need it for future purposes okay yeah go ahead our company's name is zone 5 it's a Solar Company we have a roofing company as well and uh just recently we're we're moving into the renewable energy home automation Department oh my gosh so goes with what we're talking about at lunch absolutely but we do uh AC's and water heaters uh We've recently just started doing the spray foam and uh zone 5 kind of has this like Spacey vibe to it so we're calling it space foam foam because it's up on the top you know yeah and uh and it's pretty cool and you know for us we use our business to disciple people you know a lot of times people you know think uh Kingdom Business is about making money to go fund the gospel but what was Jesus about his father's business he was about souls so really Kingdom Business is about souls and so we use this don't look at her sorry she's taking your picture sorry that's normal that's the I don't know I'm just yeah go ahead yeah listen it's all getting used to it get the cane and remove me yeah they're not like Pastor Rodney like Pastor Rodney has cameras everywhere right yeah okay and so um so we really use our platform to win souls uh we use it to raise up disciples we put the fire of God in our people um everybody is accountable so we have we have a couple of offices across Florida I think we're at five offices and each one is connected to a Holy Ghost and Fire church so that way they teach they're taught the principles on how to make money but then they're held accountable whether it's through us this is before we got ordained you know to with the local Pastor to serve at the local church that we're connected with which you know tends to be River churches because we have River West Palm with Pastor Cory and then we have we're talking about River Fort Meyers with Pastor Daniel and then River Orlando with Pastor Alex and and then of course River Tampa you know with um Pastor Rodney and and so a lot of that just came about with so we can connect you know the majority the the mass of our you know of our people to stay connected stay plugged in tithing you know so a lot of times they always say the body of Christ like one or 10% tithe whatever it us it's like 12% for the longest time so you have to teach these principles you know especially you know we have a lot of people that have come right off not the streets like homeless but you know out of the world people knocking on their doors we just recently have this amazing this amazing guy in West Palm uh one of our reps knocked on his door to sell him solar uh that wasn't a solar sale so then um he's like I'm here for a soul we have a we have a a phrase in our company called Souls before sales and so if it's not a sale it's obvious Soul yeah and so uh the guy leads leads the guy to the door um at you know to the Lord he gets saved tells him hey there's a kingdom business at this church which happen to be the Kingdom Business my husband just spoke at um you should come he comes and he's like vibrating he doesn't know anything about like the power of God the move of God and um you know my husband prays for him at the end of the Kingdom Business then he just almost got like instant download of you know the kingdom the Bible he's never doesn't know anything and uh and so and now he's plugged in he's doing great with our company being held accountable submitting you know so we have to teach these principles so for us we just use our business as a platform for the gospel and then it multiplies and of course you know if you're seeking first the kingdom and it's the character is the right part all of these things will be added unto you so we don't to focus on that part CU we're putting it we're putting the emphasis on the kingdom winning souls and then the righteousness which is the character yeah now when you when you start how did you start this business and what made you do that well uh without going into the whole kid part of it my husband made a deal with the Lord and um he swed his last like $250 we were we were um we were we were 250 we were $200,000 in debt we were 6 months behind our mortgage um he and I we you know even like unity in our house wasn't quite there cuz you know I'm the one that went to Bible School thinking that I'm supposed to have some platform but now I'm stuck at home the kids you know I didn't I didn't have the right mentality you know and then my my husband was just like uh just didn't have the character to continue to move forward and uh you know there you know the Bible says that the wealth of the wicked is laid up for the just and I'm thinking man if we're declaring the words of word of God over us and we're not seeing the fruit maybe the Lord's just making us just CU we're not just yet maybe there's Shady stuff in our heart and so that time frame the Lord was just working on us and so my husband made a deal with the Lord and um and and part of what he shares is that if if if you he asked the Lord if you allow me to be the third company to rise up out of this place which was the river Tampa because he was working with other sales companies from previous time I went to Bible school with a lot of those sales guys yeah and and um other owners would would almost like prostitute the anointing from these workers and then make millions of dollars and none of it comes back to the church that was with one company then the second company same thing happens a lot of Bible school students from the river come they get plugged in they they make a bunch of money with this sales company and that guy the owner of that company sells his company I think makes like I don't know 50 I don't know I think it was like like2 billion doar and his tithe was like I don't know five million and but instead of his tithe being five million to the church it goes to the Mormon church because it was a Mormon company but the but it was the Christians that built buil yeah that made him the money and so my husband just had this righteous ignation come above him and he's like if you allow me to be the third company to rise up out of this place meaning the river Tampa um I promise I'll bring it back to you and part of what what he said to the Lord was before he finished his sentence you know to be a three billion dollar company because he hesitated saying three billion because that's a big number it's a huge number a lot more zeros more you know um and before he finishes the word you and I promise I bring it back to you the Lord says what you've uh asked me I've offered it to many but they wouldn't do it so because you you know you asked you can have it Go and that's what we've been doing we've just been going and then when my husband started the Solar Company the you know he his friend called him in he's like I got this thing I don't know how to do it but I think you're the one that's going to build it and uh and he's like I don't know what solar is you know and so they make a deal like pay me for six weeks while I figure this out and he couldn't figure it out and part of his testimony he says he saw me changing my son's diaper he's like I didn't want to go inside because I still couldn't figure out how to sell this product because I need know what solar was you know he's an amazing salesman he's he's really great at building teams but he couldn't get the system and process together yet and um and he told the Holy Spirit he's like God I if you prom I promise if you teach me how to do this I won't go to anybody but you first I won't ask anyone else and the Holy Spirit said fine let me move let the Holy Spirit move and work on their hearts work on the people's hearts and let the Holy Spirit move and those were the two conditions the Holy Spirit told my husband and then that was it my husband never recruited people were just starting to come our way and then we just would work on their hearts we start talking about the things that mattered you know going back to Matthew 6:33 you know and that righteousness part and uh and we put their attention you know stop being a man and woman of opportunity stop chasing stop selling yourself to the highest bidder you know C put your hand to the plow be faithful you know like you know with Building a Church oh yeah and so it was the same principles and so uh as this just continued to move forward we started working on people's hearts you know and that kind of led into you know the ordination because you know Pastor our you know Pastor Alex in Orlando and then of course Pastor Rodney who did ordain us you know he's like they can see that we're pastoring these people you know we we've had deliverances in our sales meetings you know a couple because a because a business um I we say this all the time I I've even said this to Tracy but a business is like running is the same thing there's no difference between a business and a church because it's a whole lot of human contact and minutia yeah I mean it at times uh it's just it's a lot it's a lot of human interaction and and having to try and let the Holy Spirit direct you with each and every situation yeah if you're a good business owner then you're letting the Holy Spirit do it if if um it's like with Tracy her and her husband with his business and then Tracy has her business but they're dealing with with uh with employees and you're trying to get the employees to handle it in a Christlike way some of them are not Believers and you're having to and then you're having to deal with the customers and trying to win them as well like everybody has an opportunity on each side like to be exposed to to the gospel yeah and church is no different I mean you have your staff is saved at least you hope they are but your staff is saved but they they're still like you're still having to deal with a a lot of stuff hopefully less with staff like not not like um you guys get to pick who you um h no come up through the ranks to get Clos yeah so you can have some employees that are a lower level that you really don't deal with and that's much easier but as they get closer to you then you really want to make sure that they're fully connected right and have a strong relationship with the Lord because it all trickles down from there and that's what my husband does on Tuesdays like we're talking about how the Tuesdays are going to be the business Sundays you know that's really where we get continue to plug the message teach the principles teach character and uh and PR and showing how to practically apply you know uh the word because they say that business is the anointing practically applied so how do I do this and so I think you know Jonathan Shuttlesworth is really great at making the the word so today and appliable and like palatable and I feel like in business that's that's even what my husband does is really showing how you can have these character points in the company with using the the word of God and it's not just the Bible says this the Bible says this you're just hearing principles and you're like oh that's the word that's what the Bible say and I think I see I think that a lot of people sell out and they don't have you have the capabilities of being a business owner it's just you don't have the self-esteem or the courage to step out and so I say to that um don't doubt who you are be bold and don't work for somebody else you if you pay your tithes and if your business pays ties off of I think that's a big key though a lot of times business owners pay only tithe off of the income that they get when really they should be paying tithe off of with the business 100% they actually should be that's not a that's not a suggestion that is for sure and if you want to see it's just like the church when we started which we always gave and we gave a lot but I wouldn't I don't know if I would say that we ever tithe the church ever tithe as much as it got in we gave a lot but everything changed when we made a a a decision and we said we will tithe and then offering on top of that we will tithe off of everything that the church brings in which no one ever taught us that principle somebody had suggested it to us but nobody taught us the principle that a church should tithe off of what it brings in that I know that a lot of denominations require that right but that's because it's a business decision not because it's actually a principle of the Kingdom right totally different totally different so I think financially we skyrocketed when we made that decision so can you imagine if a business yeah that's covenant made that decision if you if you're not paying your tithe and you're a business owner you're crazy if you are a business owner and you are not making if you're home and your business are not using Christian biblical principles and you're floundering there's a reason for that right it's you know it it's because if once you start instilling and being strong in the word of God watch out because then would you say that once you guys because you said you guys were late on your morgage your your home life was kind of like chaotic right but then he made this commitment and then do you would you say the over a short period of time things began to change it was within about six months that's that's a very Shorty Short but when you're in the middle of it you're like okay I thought this was going to be a magic wand that things were going to change all of a sudden and actually and that's whenever you have this realization I'm like we're hungry we're seeking the Lord we're quoting scripture why isn't why aren't we seeing this manifestation and that's when I was like maybe the Lord's making us just yeah maybe we're not just yet for the the wealth to come our way yeah and so that takes time you know because everything's a seed so if you've been sewing garbage all this time he's got to rip that stuff out and then sew new seed into us we have to sew new seed and then it starts to flourish and Inc the weeds come out that's right because it's the soil that's multiplied not the seed it's only one seed the soil is the multiplier and we are the soil it's just like when the uh when the disciples uh went out with the food from the little boy it was disciples that were it multiplied in the disciples hands not from from the plate that they were holding or from Jesus himself it was they multiplied it as they handed it out and a lot of people don't realize that we are that though it's the same thing so um because I know like I have friends friends who just like stepped out I have a couple friends who just stepped out into business on their own they've been under somebody and that's a kind of a scary thing yeah but organization is huge yep you do the you do the human carnal things and then you add in the biblical principle and watch out cuz it will like yeah we kind of started backwards because for us we were Faithfully serving at a church for like seven years we were on the ship team and uh and no it was just us it was just the me my four no more kind of expression you know nobody was doing anything we're sitting around thinking one day we're going to win the lottery or what are we going to do you know rather than standing on Kingdom principles oh my gosh and um and nobody was growing and developing and then whenever you know I got hungry which was part of part of our testimony you know for the change you know through through US shifting and going back to the river Tampa um you know in that time period you know the Lord was working in our hearts for first and then we were applying those principles and then when uh you know during part of our assignment us moving up to Orlando was because of how Pastor Alex's heart is with his message for his church that we we needed to continue to grow because it was almost like his message was putting biblical definition to the work that the Lord was already doing in us and in our company and so we then got to be accountable and and really understand the submission to Authority and then and then of course we're already submitted to you they submitted to Pastor Rodney and and through that time frame you know the Lord brings he always promotes your relationships first before he promotes you and so that's what was happening we were getting promoted by the relationships and then how do you handle what again a seed what do I do with what's been given to me do I get familiar or do I honor the pastors that are in front of me am I I'm here for I'm here to be taught something I'm not here to bring something there's something to be said about being an armor bear people have lost people have like you should not if you are the one that has an armor bear you should not be like right I I I'm worthy you deserve you're lucky that come brush my hair yeah come brush my hair um that's an inside joke yeah but there's something to be said I think anybody that's been in Ministry I've had to be an armor Bearer yeah like I've had to do that role and I think it's super important to do it so that when God if God ever puts you in a place then you don't think more of yourself than you should i l That season especially when I was on the road I always thought I was called to the ministry of help because everyone's like oh you are called to the full-time Ministry I'm like are you're called to the fivefold are you a pastor I'm like I don't know I'm just happy to be here I'm just happy to lift up a vision and I used to think there's something wrong with me because I'm not ambitious you know but really it was just because this is knowing my assignment yeah and so a lot of times especially in the Kingdom Business term people think oh I need to go out on my own no you plug in go use your gifts and talents and build with people and then wait and then wait or if not stay faithful where you're at because maybe you're supposed to be the best number two MH you're never supposed to be number one yeah there's something beautiful about number two there really is I mean I'm we do have like a Heather and like a mallus is a number two right um but I consider myself to be a number two in my marriage of I love that role yes I think it's beautiful and it's super special and I'm I don't need to be number one I really don't I don't care about that we actually suck as number one because we're not supposed to be I tell this a you know I say this a lot because our job as wives is to lift up our husband's hands no matter what whether you work a job whether you're home with the kids whether you're in Ministry no matter what you are the help me your job is to lift up your husband's hands so the Lord had to check me on this because I had all these Bible alkalides and waiting for my platform and I'm like why am I stuck in home with these kids and the Lord's like like you know and my husband started rising up my husband started speaking in events my husband started preaching I'm like this guy didn't even finish Bible school or whatever the case was you know but you know uh with with that the Lord just supernaturally downloaded everything and accelerated my husband where who cares about all that stuff that doesn't even matter but the fact that uh the fact that he was moving forward and I was at I was the hot mess at home the Lord's like trying to show me something and he's like you are never going to be number one but you will be the best number two it's a beautiful thing now let's let's do like you just me me said something that I think can segue right into a really great story you're a hot mess at home yes can you tell us can you can you share how hot what a hot mess she were oh man I used to make excuses for everything it was always someone else's fault um I lived that life too yeah oh yeah I lived that life I I you know whenever I got called to Bible School the lord gave me like an open vision and I thought I was supposed to be preaching on these platforms and uh and now I'm at home wiping butts you know nobody's paying attention to me and I used to really fall into comparison looking at other people and be like well this person is doing this I'm the one just at home and my husband was always so gracious he's like there's going to be a time where you're I see you speaking into ladies and I'm like you know you don't know the stuff in my heart like I'm a jerk you know like I don't I'm not nice you know but the Lord just was continuing to refresh me and and Pastor Dallas's testimony really just built me in that time frame because how she compares herself in this familiar stuff I would just stream thinking like she's saying exactly what my heart's saying like don't pick somebody else like it's not me and the Lord's the Lord's like yeah you know because he's looking for the hungry he's looking looking for the humble he's looking for the ones that can be teachable you know and it's not about what you bring to the table it's it's about what he can do inside of you when we are weak he is strong that's right knowing that your strength we all the time yeah knowing where your strength comes from is huge I think any I think uh I I remember saying to to the Lord so many times like when I found out that he called us into Ministry I was like Lord why us like there are so many better people out there that and he basically said because you're willing to say what no one else is willing to say and you're willing to go or no one else is willing to go ABS absolutely and if other people would have been more usable maybe we wouldn't have been picked but he also looked at our hearts like Tom and I there's probably and we're honest about ourselves Y and uh the I I think that we're very broken I think a lot of times if the Lord tells us something about ourselves we're very broken about that and willing to listen to those things and say yeah I fall short there like what do I have to do to get to that place now that's where like you were very cautious about what you ate and what you're like OCD I was I um I was besides not being very nice which I've been there I was a horrible person hor critical I used to like look down on people where where they would eat and shop and I was so prideful you know and um and just you know trying to lose baby weight thinking I want to go be a vegan because I'm watching because you used to do massage therapy correct so you you have great training in the health and holistic and all that I know that world and um and so after I had my daughter I'm like I'm going to try to lose this baby weight by going vegan because you know you just you start jumping on Instagram and it's a bunch of doctrine of devils I'm just joking yeah joking and so that's what happened I fell into this trap of comparison because that was where I was with everybody I was everybody's doing better than me because I'm a victim and I it's everybody else's fault that I'm in a mess it's not my fault because I was not humble and I wouldn't admit you know any fault and uh and it was just all these hard checks you know because he resists the proud and he was definitely resisting me because I was repulsive with those things yeah and so you know uh so yeah I was a vegan for um almost two years what was that life like it was horrible it was it was horrible I hope you have vegans listening it was horrible stop um but yeah it was really more unpleasant because I was trying to control my husband and you should do this with me and come be miserable with me you know essentially and um miserable with me and uh you know it was just determining my own way uh of how we're going to eat how the house was um my daughter who had turned one I would only feed her eggs and bone broth from this soup that my mother-in-law taught me how to make do you think it was fear-based totally yeah that's what I want you to hit on because it was It Was Fear you were OCD OCD yeah and fear-based on these things and I'm she is speaking to some people right now I purposely am making you tell this story because I in my spirit I know that this story is meant for not just one there are many people that will not maybe not watch live but they are going to watch this later on and it's you're it's not maybe food for them it's cleaning it was all of it had to be in order it had to be the certain way it had to be this you know just this order and there was no room for the Holy Spirit to move in my life because it was so regimen to my desire my way and and a lot of that manifested in the food because I was not following my husband I would always backbite him I'd always talk over him I'd always he doesn't even know you know like have this atation in your head yeah like what does he know he's happy and filled with joy he obviously doesn't know the barrons and burdens of of improper eating there's Chemtrails in the sky and our our our our ground is depleted and you know like she said she would see people eating and she goes I know that I know that steak that steak's from Walmart I know that STI you know don't invite me over you know and and so guess what would happen nobody would invite me over or they would just you know whatever oh I love that and so you know I was very unpleasant with some of these things and um and it wasn't fun to be around you know cuz I would just I was I was fear-based I'm like that has GMOs in it that does too and I you know chemicals you saw me at the at the gas station I'm like I'm just double cheing it's still in me she still drank it it's and so it's in here and so um and so yeah a lot of that was fear-based and because I wasn't rooted in the word I wasn't rooted in faith as a Christian you know but you think you thought you were though I'm on the worship team of course I'm a Christian and this is the thing and this is uh I was just talking to my daughter about this because we were talking about some similar stuff last night deception my husband just preached on this on Sunday people deceive themselves they are full of deception about who they really are so you didn't think this isn't fear based this is me just taking great care of my family I really care about them so if I care then I will pay attention to what they eat they need to listen to me you know like that was the attitude like and if they're not going to listen then obviously you know I'm the I'm the what's that social injustice you know Nazi kind of person I was a Karen you know in that kind of aspect you know and they don't understand that you know they're killing themselves rather than standing on the word and then you know along with testimony whenever um pastors Jonathan and adalis started their Facebook lives when they were like talking like this this is their Facebook they had nothing nothing it was just hey guys and he had his plugged in you know ear ear you remember that Tracy it was like I knew Tracy would remember it I think it was like 2017 and so and it was their first uh like Facebook live of prayer and fasting that they did and uh uh Pastor adalis goes on um about you know standing on the word how Divine health is a children's Daily Bread how no weapon formed against you shall prosper and we've chosen not to vaccinate our kids so whenever I was hearing this I was correlating it to the decisions because I just had my second newborn and again we're having to tell the the pediatricians and doctors we're not vaccinating so you just like fresh conversation going on that I'm hearing the same faith I'm using knowing that not vaccinating my children I should be applying this to the same thing about no weapon in the food that's in there is going to harm me right because just like if malaria is going to is gonna die in John Wesley's body why can't the you know nonsense and GMOs and all that stuff die when it comes into my body same thing you know different chemical same thing same thing exactly and so after she preached this message I basically reached out to her on Facebook because that's where they that's the only way you can communicate with them by then I just typed up her message do you mean to tell me and then I just went on re preached her message and uh I'm like you mean to tell me that all I have to do is activate my faith in the same format and she just responded yep I'm like kids jump in the car we're going to Taco Bell that's she she did she goes Kids jump in the car we're going to Taco Bell and they did we did and that really just set me free it was that it was it was that quick because you know a lot of times people think that getting free from something because where the spirit of the Lord deserves Freedom they think it's this big Deliverance but that freedom is due to obedience you just have to obey like I remember I remember when my daughter was like three and a half four years old and she's doing something that's worthy of a spanking and I'm I'm already because I think she's already four and a half because I'm listening to Jonathan and he's going on and you're just meditating on Deuteronomy 28 and all these blessings will follow unto you and I get to my daughter's face and I'm like inner level about to give her a pawpa I'm like all you need to do is listen and obey because if you diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God and obey his Commandments all of these things will be added to you and as soon as I told her that I just start streaming crying cuz it's that easy you just have to Listen and Obey the end and if and a lot of times what we do is we well what about this factor and and God you don't even know my circumstance that's not in thee if you listen and obey all you have to do is listen and obey that's right it's it and that's it it's that simple so you didn't have to have a Deliverance no you didn't have to get down on your knees I mean and ple with god I didn't even repent I justo Bell was my repentance it's like when Jonathan said to aalas when she was so anxious and just so anxiety-ridden and she goes into him and he's playing the video games and she's talking about how she's afraid and all these reasons and he looked up at her and said don't fear and she's like yeah what are you talking about he goes don't fear she was so mad at him but then she realized yeah don't fear it's that simple stop fearing yeah it's that simple it's that simple we make things way more complicated yeah it's faith is the same thing Faith with healing yeah same exact thing it's when you just stop pressing and just realize it's already done and you rest in that it's already done yeah that's it but and then you see it but people struggle because they struggle they struggle in life because they struggle to get into the word and apply it that's they don't read the word or they read they don't know their promises so they don't know how to stand on it and then they're struggling and they're like oh Lord come Set Me Free he's like I did read Matthew 6:33 read Deuteronomy 28 I already did set you free which Deuteronomy 28 if you don't know that you're crazy because that is one of the best yeah chapters in all of the book yeah of all of it I mean hands down so you need to have that up all over your house because that's your blessings absolutely so um but I will say that a lot of times that goes back to the scriptures as to not just be a he of the word but be a doer and what happens is people are people are great at listening and then they think because they've listened to it that's me yeah but no it's not you because it's not you if you are not applying it correct okay it's to be a hearer and a doer and in order to be a doer you got to apply what you're listening to instead of just being deceptive or deceiving yourself saying that just because you listen to it and you know the promise that means because you know it you're doing it no just because you know it doesn't mean you're activating it and there is a difference so and sometimes God might level you he might level you build uh knock you down to build you back up oh totally and you have to be willing to be leveled because again it's the sewing of the seed you got to get all the weeds out yeah for the seed if that soil is not rich and it can't be rich when there's a lot of weeds in there so the have to yeah you got to pull them up and that means sometimes being leveled and you can't despise the leveling that's the problem though a lot of people don't want to do the leveling because it's going to mean that might be some scary times yeah you might like see some stuff that you don't really want to see or have to deal with some of the stuff that you really don't want to deal with then they're done that it's not fun I still do have to De with that sometimes daily of course but it gets easier I can promise you that cuz your faith grows in the leveling process you're familiar to this o i can I feel this jerkiness coming on okay Lord come check me you know like oh yeah before and then it's like the pride like no it's not really there I'm not really I don't really have an issue with that person oh and then you never deal with it oh my gosh this is reminds me of of a story last week Tom and I I got I was leaving the house to go to his podcast and every time I walk past this fan or moved past this fan that he has he loves his fan in the garage to keep him I'm like I'm somehow I'm hitting the thing I pick it up it falls back over I hit it again I F and I'm like finally like boom I'm like done with the fan I'll deal with it and I come back which I'm never like that I'm never like that he's like hardly ever sees me be like I don't know what I just got mad at the fan it must I must I don't know what my problem is but so we come back and he's picking we come back from the podcast he's picking it up and everything and so he says something like you know like don't you don't need to like if you get mad just just don't worry about it or whatever and I'm like I then proceed to go well you know when you and then he's so like I'm just telling you the man is the sweetest man on the face of the Earth so I'm like well you've broken my stuff so like when you've been mad so it'll be all right kind of thing and I didn't say it like that but I kind of said it like that and then like two minutes later as he's putting the fan back together he says you know when when um just because because I've done things in the past you shouldn't use those as an excuse for your bad behavior and I'm like yeah well now I'm even mad at you no I was like you're are a prideful person I literally was like hope you are so flipping prideful because you're trying to justify your wrong by a wrong that he hasn't even done in like years like I haven't even seen that side of him in years but I hearkened back like an elephant of course like to the time what maybe 10 years ago you hearken back but then you realize you're a prideful person like get that Pride out of you because that's ugly and I was like yeah you're right sorry I'm G me and my head between my legs are going to walk into the house because I I am like a dog with its head you know tail between his legs I'm an idiot but it's so true because you have to like you have to level yourself like be willing to just be totally taken down to go back up and and sometimes it's daily and you have to be okay with that that it it makes you better absolutely it really does but so you made that decision just like that so that just proves to people you may say well you don't know what I'm going through or you don't know what my life is like how many years did you live like that tell two years two years two years which just the vegan I was still prideful for a couple more years after that Lord had to keep working on me no I'm talking about the vegan part that was two years two years of being fearful fearful and people will say no it's a gradual process you went to Bell that day actually the vegan part was 2 years but the fearful part was an additional two years cuz it was it started when my daughter turned one and it stopped when my do the year my daughter was turning uh just turned four so it's three years in total yeah but you made a decision yeah it was an additional year that I was like okay I'm going to go back to eating meat but it has to be organic it has to be grass cut it has to be free range it has to be cagefree it has you know like all these things you know and and it was just unpleasant so just like how you're saying how graceful your husband is mine is too he's very graceful so thankful I'm telling you he's he is great at correction he really is like he is I am not at great at correcting and sometimes being corrected but he's great at giving correction I think I'm like man he's I gotta learn it is I gotta learn because man it's a great skill to have but it just shows you how Christlike you are I when you be perform like that I usually ask my husband can I be in the room so I can learn not because I want to watch the person you know squirm but I I want to learn you know I want to learn how to love people in the correction because the L you know the Lord disciplines and chastens the one he loves so how do you take that correction I mean you can do it as a as a parent but I can't go around with your spoon swatting people yeah that's for cooking only oh sorry yeah no I'm just kidding thank you for my gift oh it's got dual purposes girl 100% it fits in my purse but you know you can't just go around and just be like a tyrant to people even if you are right you know there's a way you have to deal with people and that's part of again God's business because he loves people and if you're not taking care of his business then that's going to be like that bad Steward oh yeah so true so 100% true now that leads us straight into this is Logan's time right here a lot of people are going to get love this story but Logan's my little pregnant girl so let's talk about you have your two two children number one and number two we won't give names cuz I'm really picky about oh no oh that's right you did okay you didn't tell me not to no no no you can it's just I only let police officers I don't know this stuff well no that's not why I just I just try and be private cuz I I'm a private person although my husband's not I just try but see you've already done you've already said their names okay so you have your first two children and it didn't go exactly the way you wanted it to go right now partly it's because of you where you are Faith wise right right okay let's talk let's start there so to F to FastTrack the first two just to lead up to the third one um I was very prideful with the way I wanted to deliver my first one you know um I was going to have the birthing center experience and I was going to do it this way and I wasn't in unity with my husband and he didn't say anything CU we were newly married we we got pregnant basically the weekend of our first anniversary oh she got pregnant on her honeymoon Vanessa perfect okay so yeah welcome to Parenthood that's like okay happy anniversary welcome to being parents that's kind of like that moment I had we found out actually on an Easter Sunday so it was kind of fun oh that is cool but so uh we didn't know any we didn't know how to communicate we didn't know how important it was to communicate with all this stuff and and I would just be really boastful with my I'm going to do this rather than coming to my husband coming to the Lord and uh and I'm just demanding my own way and and for him because he's he's Meek and you know sweet he's like okay whatever you're going to do but he never told me any of his concerns so with that kind of thing um my for whatever reason the first time my body just never went into labor I was actually 43 weeks pregnant with my oldest and because it was a birthing center they're like well you're kind of measuring small so we can go we can go another week you know and she was born 615 so she was still fairly strong fairly small and so I won't find out the details until I get to heaven we'll find out what what was actually supposed to happen yeah but you know to to make that that part of the story short um I uh I end up uh drinking C oil and I get rushed to the ER cuz I was demanding my way it had to be this way and then when it wasn't happening that way I looked to my husband like aren't you going to do something like I'm I'm stuck in this mess and I could just and that's that's I didn't say any of that stuff but that's what our eyes were telling each other you know yeah and and I could see he's like I didn't sign up for any of this I don't know I don't know how to be here for you you know again his eyes only said this and that was such a wakeup call to me because here we are now getting an emergency c section because I demanded my own way and we weren't in this together like how it's supposed to be and so I learned so much with being prideful in in in that kind of experience that it really humbled me and then as four years went by you know I have a newborn where we're going you know time goes by and uh the doctors are telling me again oh it looks like your body's not going into labor it's a different different OB so he does an OB because that's a C-section you can't do the whole Birthing Center Route you know legally and um they're like you know it looks like you probably are going to need another seat section and I I really wanted to have a natural birth so I was just like I don't like that report so I told my husband I'm like you know here we are a month before having my son or two three weeks before having my son and I'm like honey if you will believe with me that my body is going to do what it's supposed to do um you know otherwise I'm just going to have another C-section I don't want to be induced I don't want to I don't want you to I don't want to be forced CU my body doesn't want to go into labor why would you be put pumping pin in me and making my body do something doesn't want to do and I had a great C-section I recovered quickly you know the Staples were out and I was at Target the same day so I mean I had a great you know recovery I had sound like Heather I had great Heather I'll do C-sections all day for people perform them well no she'll actually have them for the person back to work she's fine with that and so you know I was I was fine with it because the Lord was so faithful even in my pride and Disobedience he was still faithful through all of that and so here we are again with the same report and I'm like dang four years went by and I'm hearing the same thing and so that's when I was like desperate and I'm like honey let's pray we were in the car we just got home I remember and uh you know we start we he prays and we weren't totally like praying with each other we wouldn't do Bible study it was our own salvation kind of a thing you do you or you be you you be you right and so we were being ourselves in the marriage and um as I start praying in emergency tongues my three almost four-year-old starts freaking out because she never heard me pray in tongues and that was such Jonathan says you never know when you fell asleep but you know when you woke up and that was my waking up moment like what happened to my walk what happened to my life you know where am I again we're serving on the worship team in our church you know we were you know five four four is years five years fiveish years into serving at the church on the worship team and I'm not even praying in tongues anymore it's just crazy isn't that yeah that's a lot of people walk with God though you know I just got lazy and and I was about the the church about the business but I wasn't in it you know and and I wasn't you know diligently hearkening the to his voice I wasn't seeking him I was just living you know a nominal life and um and so that was the wakeup call for me you know I end up having my son via C-section and then about five weeks into it our church you know has this uh this conversation about how they want to go in the next Direction with with where they're going and all I realized is that I'm like checked out my house is not in order I'm not in order I could care less about what's going on with my church right now you know and and we were just volunteers we weren't on staff um and so you know after that I was just kind of like just stunned like I didn't I didn't know what to do with my life like how did I get here and and then I prayed I'm like you know Lord you know I don't know how I ended up here but please help me get out and um and that was the next day that Jonathan starts his Facebook lives you know like we we were we were talking yeah and just getting pumped with like six month six months it took about six months of just hearing faith on their daily broadcast and just confessing the word speaking the word going back to applying and believing the word you know I'm like telling my husband I'm like you got to hear this guy you got to hear this guy preaching and the last thing you know he wanted to hear was another preacher because you know there was just a little bit of a a disappointment with where we were going for so many years and not going into a direction we thought so he's kind of like burned out with that um but Pastor Rodney ended up taking his entire staff to Israel that year Father's Day yeah I remember him telling this telling the story go ahead and so um so I told our pastors we're not leading worship you know take us off that that day I'm like honey you got to hear this guy he's coming on Father's Day you have to hear this guy and um and on his end he he was not going to go he said yes whenever I told him originally like on a Monday or whatever you know like this guy's coming to the river we're going um so I already made the arrangements and uh the whole week he kept thinking you know we're not going to go I'm like don't forget Sunday we're going to the river Tampa we're not we live Liv in Sarasota at that time you know we're going to the river Tampa we're not going to be here and he'd say okay we're not going then that morning and it's still to this day Angels were helping me I got a bab a newborn a six-month-old and a uh a four-year-old in the car myself perfectly ready didn't forget a thing in silence sitting there waiting and my husband's showering he's getting himself ready we're not going to go he says this he says this I'm just thinking we're not going to go once we get in the car I'm just going to put my foot down and just pull over to somewhere else and that's it but we were perfectly in the car I knew if I was if I forgot something forget it because anything that was gonna hi hiccup this you know was gonna just you know make it not blow it off blow you know blow it up and so he turn you know we started driving our church is to the left hit you know the river Tamp is to the right we're turning to the right I'm like okay great we just keep going in his mind he's like we're not going I'm just going to pull out to some random Seeker sensitive Church whatever we're just going to go it's Father's Day right this is his story but he just keeps driving and so you know going from Sarasota to Tampa it's like a 40 45 minute hike you know and so we end up at the river Tampa right by that passing that gas station again I think we're going to church because that's all I knew but this is his head like realizing oh I'm here so he's like Lord if you have me here for a reason then then come and touch me you know cuz it's just you know you sometimes just you still love the Lord but you're hurt and so he he was at a place of just that Brokenness like you were saying and he's like just come touch me and so um and so we we end up sitting in the third row we were we were used to these 45 minute dry clean Services because our church was changing gears with some things but this is now we're back into three four hour 4 hours service yeah 4 hours scare people laugh but no it's 4 hours but it feels like you're at home it's just like what else am I going to do it's so comfortable it's not bad and so I just remember I'm bouncing my six-month-old you know in heels you know in a dress like I know the Lord has something for my husband and I wasn't even desperate I just we were talking about that peace it was and it wasn't even that peace I just I just knew like as if I knew the rest of this it was like a movie like I knew what was coming up next and uh it was Father's day but he was preaching about mothers and he calls out two ladies and one guy Jonathan Jonathan was preaching about mothers on Father's Day and uh he called out two ladies and one guy and that one guy was my husband and uh and right before that you know he was like Lord you know if you have something for me just come and touch me and when he he had his eyes closed he says when you come and you know when he said touch me he he felt Jonathan touch his shoulder and say you come here calls him out all he said was be filled with the Holy Ghost and Fire and then he hits the ground and uh and afterwards we're picking up our kids and we're in the back and I mean at that point Jonathan didn't have you know staff with him people with him yeah they were very small then not even a do and and Camila were there and and again it was Father's Day um he was just changing his shoes I think getting out of his dress shoes and putting something more comfortable on when we went to go pick up our kid and my husband just kind of gave him a wave like thank you and um and I was like what happened and he's like I don't know but I know something's changed and like this acceleration just like day and night happened as if all the stuff that was put into him as a young you know young boy when he was like you know Faithfully um in his church and and his praying mom and praying grandma and you know the activation of his relationship before just kicked in at that moment and then all of a sudden it just accelerated him in the word hungry you know it's you know it just was like a completely different guy and so that's how our business started taking off and so at that point you know I was um we you know we were we were we would make talks about having another kid and he's like you know anyways even if we had another kid you know you're just going to have another C-section it just kind of felt like this like sinking in my heart like I still would love to have natural a beback you know a natural you know delivery and uh and at one point I had reached out to a dollas and I was like what do you do when you want to believe for a natural birth but your husband says to use your faith for a Ferrari and uh and that was because she was like I'm taking questions you know so that was my question and so you know that that's where we were and so I just kind of you know just stayed faithful you know with with what what our assignment was instead of focusing on on that and so there were times where I was I was you know praying and declaring and speaking over our business as we were growing and and moving forward and and at one point I was like God how can I believe for our business to hit three billion if I can't even believe my body to do what it's supposed to do naturally amen and so so that was kind of like this heart check right before I got pregnant and then uh and then you know fast forward here we are um we get pregnant in 2020 you know so like probably right right out the time we originally met you you know we came down it about about the time I I I got pregnant with Kelly I mean no name child no you can I just I just don't I just don't do but I mean I will now right and so um so during coid the the husbands couldn't come to the um the visits and so I I like begged them like just for the first one just to hear the heartbeat can he come so we come we go to the the the uh appointment we hear the heartbeat I just asked out of the blue it was again one of those hot question subjects that we didn't talk about VB back or or just having another C-section because I already knew what he would have said so I just left it alone so that way I can keep my heart right and uh but I did ask I said what's your what's your vack success UC right here and the guy's like you're 39 you've had two C-sections he's like M you know like go fly a kite basically and uh and so I just kind of kept my face still I didn't say anything but my heart like really sunk you know when he said that and um and then we got into the car and my husband's like you know what we're going to believe God that your body's going to do what it's supposed to do amen and that gave me the permission for the sky being the limit to my faith cuz now I'm in honor now I'm in submission now now I have the permission of my husband to go and confess to the sky the limit so I had timers on my phone five times a day I would confess the promises that are in the Supernatural childbirth from the top of the baby's head down to the soles of her feet I never even did that with my other two kids and so I mean like but your faith was and your walk with God and your faith is different and you are different and we're different we're at a different place yeah and we're in unity all that matters all that matters which that's the one thing that my husband says I got in unity with the Lord and then I got in unity with my wife and once we were in unity I knew what what part was my part and what part was his part and so when it turned into being my part I'm not going to be like confess the word with me honey you know like no like this is my job now I have permission to go and believe you know for for exactly what I wanted and so that's what I did for that nine months and you know we there were several ladies in our company that were believing and I'm like no you can do it keep going and two of those ladies were like ready to have a C-section but stayed in faith and ended up having you know a natural birth like they wanted one of them was in faith but she wasn't in the right place and I'm like no you need to go get the C-section and of course it was like all these events and she's like I'm so glad you helped me you know have a C-section which this girl has now just had her successful beback yeah and so because it was a different place in her walk right because I had failed those times that that turned into a testimony and a and a lesson for other ladies no you need to go or other by the word of the Lord Lord I'm like you know what actually go go you can't do it it ain't for you right now it's not for you for whatever reason unforeseen you know and so so and this is me declaring this is for the sake of having what I'm Desiring this is my heart's desire so you know here we go um the the I switched doctors by the way I got rid of that guy uh because he wasn't going to stand with me and the doctors work for me I don't work for them so amen girl you know so bye-bye people need to remember that new doctor so I got actually ended up getting two other doctors but the second was was insurance reasons and so the third one um you know he was he was like he's actually reminds me a lot like Tom he was a pastor Tom see you guys I'll say that stuff you know Pastor Tom um he's like a a trump supporter and a Q and on he was asking me all these Q andon questions at that time you know and I'm like I don't know bro I'm just here he he was a q andon person he was asking me what do you think about this and what do you I'm like you know cuz I think he was like happy to have a conservative patient hope he doesn't believe the Q andon stuff that veil has been far removed hopefully for him but so he was like a Baptist and you know obviously you know I was I was telling him I'm believing you know you know and oh I'm a Baptist I'm a Christian cool we're Christians together kind of like thing so we never talked about my pregnancy the entire time but now here we are two weeks before delivery and the same report doesn't look like you have a favorable uh uterus you know nothing's moving I think you should probably get a C-section I'm like you've been my friend this entire time how dare you how dare you say this to me betrayal yeah and I I kind of had a heart check because again fear comes in the fear was what is my husband going to say because he has hasn't been able to come to any of these appointments with me because of the whole coid thing and you're supposed to wear a mask but I always wore bright lips and smiled really big and so nobody nobody said man put mask your she looks so nice plus that you know the favor of the Lord and so um and so um you know I I I was I was like what's my husband going to say now that they're saying they're talking this way and that that actually happened on a Tuesday and Tuesdays are our B busiest day so it was like after 1:00 in the morning he finally calls for the day I'm like hey I just want to let you know what the doctor said you know he's talking about maybe getting a C-section he's like no we're standing and believing on the Lord and that was and and that was what I needed to know that I could still keep going because before I was so prideful and demanding with my first and uh and this time I'm like okay no we're we're going to keep going you know cuz I was going to be heartbroken that if my husband was going to tell me not that I was like pouting like what are you going to say it was just the word of the Lord was like no we're going to keep standing and I'm like okay I have permission to keep going I'm in unity and um and I was already getting phone calls the next day from uh hello um Christy we're here to schedule your C-section for Monday I'm like wrong number wrong I'm not having a c-section and the one lady who had called me she already knew how was I was cuz she already asked me had to ask me something about about you know whatever somewhere in my pregnancy and she's like oh I like I remember you you like I'm like you know use an opportunity to win souls you're always she going to talk to somebody so I um I remember you like oh it's you I know ma'am I I okay you don't have to have the C-section I'm just here to schedule the appointment for you I'm like okay well tell them I said wrong number and then hang up and so um so we just continue to stand on the word you know um I went to go see a uh Midwife to just check me she's you know she was a friend of a a a friend of other ladies I knew and and she's like yeah looks like your body's moving forward the only thing I can muster up after before bursting into tears when the doctor said that to me was since my husband's not here I can't make a decision till I talk to him so can we get rechecked on Friday and then I'll tell you what we're going to do and that's all I could come up to say and so I'm I'm pumping myself with the word I'm standing I'm declaring I know I have permission you know to to believe God and so Thursday night I you know steps start moving forward I lose my plug you know I don't know how graphic you have to give them an answer on Friday I have to give an answer on Friday that's the key I lose my plug and I've never done any of this stuff so I don't know how it is it's almost having like my first labor because it never happened and I'm like okay that was you know that was a plug you know whatever so I come like guns of Blazing Friday morning and he's like okay it looks like you're you know you're moving forward you're you're like a one and you're getting softer whatever those terminologies are yeah you know a fac and he's like so what are you going to do I'm like look you said if nothing's happening we're calling the C-section something's happening so we're going to wait we will we wait until the following Friday but we're not going to do anything except maybe like a soft induction but we're not we're not doing anything he's like you don't want me to strip your membrane or do any I'm like no don't move us forward because that's what my husband said don't do anything we're waiting on the Lord and again before with Gabby they did do that because they're like yeah I'm like yeah speed it up let's do this thing you know what else can I do girl yeah exactly it's a mess and so um and so so I just felt like and I and I and I'm like look and he is like well you know I'm I'm concerned because there's a 0 1% chance of you having a uterine rupture because you've had two C-section and and maybe God's telling me to tell you not to do it because this is going to happen I'm like maybe your job is to be a Christian first before a doctor so you can stand in faith with me you are supposed to be the voice of the voiceless and right now I'm telling you this is what I'm believing for I'm inviting you to be a part of this miracle either you can be a be with with me on this or I'll just show up to another Er When It's Time no no no ma'am it's okay and so that's where that's where this this testimony was going the guy was like okay I'm all for it you know because you're crazy you know I'm in faith I'm standing this is gonna happen and so uh so then as the day goes by Saturday comes we actually have guests over and uh and my pastor Pastor laurren she she texts me uh you know how you feeling and I'm like H little crampy but you know I guess I'm fine and she goes have you been crampy all morning I'm like yeah she goes does it come and go I'm like I haven't paid attention I'm like actually yes and she goes that's not cramps you're you're having contractions I'm like oh my gosh this is happening and so I was like okay great by the by that evening um you know we were with people and uh and my water breaks and I'm like this is happening this miracle is happening this is anything I've never experienced any of this stuff before and so I had a doula and she was from our church so you need a spirit fill Doula that way they can stay in agreement with you because when you don't know what you're doing you need to have people with you and so one reason why we had a doua with us our third time was because we didn't know what to expect and so um I didn't know what my husband how much he wanted to participate and so I wanted to have a support because I didn't know what I need not that not that my husband wasn't going to support but maybe he didn't want to be in the room yeah you don't know what you're do now I know yeah so we I just wanted to honor and and my husband and I again we're in unity and um about having her on and it was actually really healing because we got to talk about some things from you know the first birth that just allowed him to just kind of like Get that out finally because he's like I don't want what happened this time to happen this time yeah and so uh so that was just just more just cleansing and and just you know being um fully filled with God and not filled with any kind of fear you know because you don't want to have any doubt NOP you know just like when Jesus kicked out the other people whenever that miracle was happening so I you know we don't want to get kicked out of our own players you got to go right exactly and so um so as the evening is progressing I you know I'm laboring I I'm so excited I've never had any of this stuff happen I'm bouncing on the ball and doing all the things and as uh as the night as the night goes on into the morning I felt like you know what my body's getting tired I'm going to maybe I should just get an epidural I'm happy to be here but I need to maybe rest my body so I get an epidural there's a reason why I'm saying that I get an epidural and I and one of my confessions was I was going to laugh laugh this baby out so because obviously we come from the river and the joy of the Lord is our strength so I'm I'm laughing this baby out so I would like hahaa in between you know the contractions just to help open up you know and uh and I meant it you know and and part of when you were talking about Pastor Chris's book I haven't read her book but you know while she was before she was writing it because we were pregnant at the same time you know she was sending stuff to me and she sent something to me that was really helpful at a time about just getting your mindset in the right place for the the pushing and the and the opening up and all that stuff so it was it was really wonderful that you know at that time frame so I'm really glad she ended up writing a book yeah and which Logan left yeah and um and so uh so I'm in this mentality we're you know we're we're speaking the word we're confessing the word but as soon as they gave me the epidural you know they're like oh the baby's heart rate's dropping which is what they told me with my first which is why the emergency C-section was happening and we already heard this song and dance so I wasn't going to be prideful be like yeah we already know this story I waited for my husband to make the decision which before I was not about that and so this time he's like no we're we're going to wait so we actually signed the paperwork declining the C-section because they're suggesting it but you think they're just trying to push the agenda just get this over with it's already it's already been overnight now let's just get the show on the road we're like no we're waiting for this miracle and um and my husband's like give us an hour I was I think I was like 5 Centimeters at that point and he's like if she's not a 10 in an hour you know then we'll we'll talk about C-section So within that hour of laughing in between the TR contractions I'm having to move side to side by side they had some Alternatives oh your heart rate was a little low when you you came or high when you came in now it's lower let's bump up your heart rate to help bump up the baby's rate I'm like see there's always a solution you know but they're always just quick for the the C-section Y and so they did these things and then as as that hour went by you know they're like okay we're going to check you you're an eight we're like wow we're an eight but it's not a 10 that's s like but it's not a 10 and so you know we really think you need to you know decide for the C-section cuz I think at that point your the baby's heart rate is supposed to be anywhere between 2125 and she was down to like 65 and um and you know the way we describe it was it was just almost like we were trying to pick what restaurant to go to like H okay let's get the C-section cuz we just felt like this was our stop and um and cuz we had everybody leave you know we had such peace it was like this peace that surpasses the understanding it was like this is as far as we can go this is how far our faith could take us and um and as they're Wheeling Us in to start with the O you know I actually hear I hear this I hear what happened to a dollas is about to happen to you and I'm like thank you Jesus you're so faithful like la la la I'm not listening to this I'm not listening to this and I just like Lord you're so good because I spent that nine months you know confessing fighting standing on the word that this was not time for me to get all all in the name of Jesus and powerful and so I I just I just refused to listen to that and I just stayed in faith and I kept my body really calm because as soon as they move me from the um the the regular birthing table into their operating table my body goes into shock like like fullon convulsing I cannot stop and I'm like this is my third go around I know how this works why is my body acting this way because I was in such peace that perfect peace like like like really like why are you not why are you not participating in this piece like body and soul I mean like Soul and Spirit are fine but what's up with you body and uh and of course there's that time frame where the husband has to go get scrubbed up so I'm by myself for a little bit you know and that's not very long you know everything seems like it's like hours but really minutes yeah and so he comes in and I and one thing I told them because having that massage background is I love all the things medical and you know all the other details I love all the things medical so in my birth plan I was like do not speak medical stuff around me cuz I don't want to hear whether it's negative negative or positive I don't want to get excited and then tighten up because I'm excited or I don't want to get fearful cuz I hear what you're saying so but now I'm in the operating room all bets are off and they're running around like it's home alone like that that one scene you know again third C-section I've had uh I've had a emergency C-section I've had a plan C-section and now this one's like not like one I've had before and so they're running around like crazy and I can hear all these terminologies and I'm like okay and I was just like Lord You're so faithful I thank you you're so good I'm and you know you're you're laid like this they they they almost strap you because they have to you know start plugging stuff in and I was just I was just in peace and because I already had that epidural they didn't have to give me the spinal tap which is the the big epidural where you're actually numb so I I was numb to what was happening but I could feel something was happening I can feel my body moving cuz the other half of me was still you know you know in intact and so um so they obviously you know cut me open I can feel my baby leave my body you know actual not like you know spiritually I can feel her leave my body and I just knew something wasn't right and I tell my husband I'm like start praying and he's like Shaha thank you Jesus I'm like no start praying we shall live and not die and then I just closed my eyes and I just got really quiet and peaceful because I needed my body to be still because it was still shaking I was still convulsing I was still like puking I couldn't move you know I was just I was like why is my body acting this way yeah you know and I wasn't worried but it was like that's that was what I realized because I was in such peace with everything else and um and of course they're they're saying all the terms whatever time goes by and my husband does start praying in in tongues like you know fiercely and time goes by and I hear let's get the dad over here because this is my version I'm trying to blend the two sides of the story and uh this nurse filled with the devil says I hear you praying look what you've done grabs my baby's arm flops you waited too long and she's dead for 20 minutes they were trying to resuscitate her but because when we started dating all he he he said was you're such a beautiful baby I bet you were a beautiful baby and all he wanted was a little baby of course I wanted Spanish babies and then now this little baby is wh skinned blond hair you know you know I would to know the eye color at that moment but uh but she was there and so that was the glimpse of hope my husband needed to know that this was his promise yeah that is not going to be dead on a table so he said in the name of Jesus you shall live and not die immediately life comes back into my daughter and the nurses were shocked they didn't know what to do and they immediately grab her they say you know you did your job you know cuz because that that nurse said you know let's see if you're if your God's listening there are many gods but let's see if yours is listening and so now you know of course our Lord comes and and delivers delivers my baby and uh and he takes her she the nurse takes her and says you know like you know she may be alive but she's probably going to be a vegetable this is like holding a baby underwater for like 20 minutes and uh and another just you know curse and uh and you know Lazarus was dead for four days why would absolutely why would the Lord bring someone back from the dead as vegetable it do work and so we we refused to hear that report and so uh so they brush her off they actually even called a helicopter but they canceled it she went to um she went to a different hospital because of the better NICU situation and all that kind of stuff and um and for me because I heard that prayer and I and because I use sarcasm to deal with stuff I was like that's a funny way to greet your baby into the world and then I hear them speaking all the medical terms and I hear uterine rupture hysterctomy I'm like o I guess I guess I'm not doing too well and so I was like I was like all right buddy keep calming down like I'm like really trying to get my body to be still and I lean over to the I like turn my head to the nurse I'm like I'm really sorry I'm trying to calm down you know cuz I'm like shaking how do you work when your body's shaking and so they I go General it was a six-hour surgery the guy said that my my uterus exploded like like uh spaghetti strands and he says he didn't know what to do but that it was two doctors that were working on me because the one that was on duty and they called that guy you know and and uh he thought who is this and he said a day before before I had thought you know L I'm I'm thinking about Delgato he's a military doctor he used to work on uh war vets you know like amputees and bombs explosions stuff and he said it was almost like a bomb went off in my uterus and um and he he thought about me the day before and he's like Lord I know um bad things happen to good good people but don't let anything happen to her just you know a highlight and uh and he tells my husband you should be checking two people in at the morg right now and and then he goes and draws a picture of everything that ended up happening and and just he said I didn't know what to do but it was like an unforeseen hand just started moving my hand and um yeah he s stitched me up he's like your wife's probably in recovery she'll probably be in recovery for you know a couple days at the ICU and when my husband comes into the room I'm like I bet you had a rough day I didn't even know what happened I I'm just preaching to the nurses I'm telling them how good the Lord is I'm telling my Doula how she needs to put her house in order you know like take care of your husband I didn't know what just happened and everyone's just streaming cuz I didn't know what just happened amen and um I lost half my blood supply and I would have never known I recovered just like I had a regular C-section nothing was different nothing nothing and uh and it was just the Lord was just so faithful my daughter they wanted to have my daughter stay in in the uh the ncu for two weeks but she only ended up staying 6 days and they didn't do anything for her they just monitored her they had they did no assistance other than the natural things you know like Fe feed the baby and check vitals but they had tubes and everything all over her just to make sure she could breathe she can cool and heat herself no seizures you know she was perfect like they didn't they didn't do anything to help her Live Like Jesus did it all yeah and if you knew this baby she's a a fiery oh my gosh my H thinks she is the most adorable thing ever outside of Brinley I just you know the thing is is I tell Logan this all the time people have they they love to tell the horror stories of child birth yeah and the thing is is no one ever tells you that that they've stood in faith they they made it to a certain place it didn't go exactly as planned in fact it goes and it takes a rough turn to a certain extent and then God still shows up and shows off and he shows who he really is through the whole entire process see everybody always focuses on the one bat like oh you should my child birth was so but listen there's a beautiful story if you stand in faith if you stay in unity and you command and claim what the word of God says see the thing is is what you guys did is you spoke the word yeah you spoke things and that's what we're to do you didn't take it to Jesus you spoke what was already planted in you for nine months prior to that's how you can the results yeah and sometimes people quote the word in fear you said I'm the head and not the tail why am I doing this and it was like no this is my promise and that again even with my husband when he saw when he saw Kelly he's like this is my promise I know that you're not going to you know deliver me a dead baby with blonde hair white skin you know just like I've asked for and so that the Lord even knows how to but it's up to us here's the situation now what are you going to do and it's up to us on if we're going to use our faith you know the Lord gives us an imagination and part of that imagination is for us to utilize it for the creative Miracle work that he's going to do exactly because it usually is held and I and I me and and Norma talk about this stuff all the time but the imagination is warned against in the in in the scriptures yeah hands down in every there's one scripture that the imagination has talked about where it's not a warning but it's not a it's not a pro or it's it's indifferent but we're warn against our imagination because it is we war against it and that's the key you can also use it yeah to imagine your healing to imagine your business being successful the things that you are believing for that God has birthed inside of you you can use that same imagination to see things fulfilled and that's hope that's what's hope faith was the uh what is it faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of Things Not Seen the evidence of Things Not Seen is the hope of what he has planted inside of you coming to pass absolutely y or the promise that he has given you coming to pass that's the UN not seen calling those things that be not as though they were it's the same thing those scriptures are twofold they go together absolutely part and part of being a doer of the word is instead of just assuming the promises are yours you're going to have to go after it like part of the reason with my my first daughter everything was like you know hitting into a dead end is because I just like yeah I'm saved I'm born again the end that's my promise of the Lord supposed to deliver me rather than going after it and then this time I went after it to the points that with the monitoring I mean I prayed from the top of her head to her lungs to her eyes to her I didn't do any of that stuff but because I'm going to get my Miracle this time I'm going to do it all and because I did it all they they didn't have to do anything to help her she was perfect she's literally fearfully and wonderfully made yep 100% and that and that that's part of going after your promise because it's yours to go after it's not it's not yours like like here's this cup you know there there's my there's my drink but it's not going to I'm not going to drink it unless I go after it you I have to get my drink action has to take be taken EXA yeah exactly you have to take action I love that story because what is what I do love about that story is Faith through adversity yeah Faith through adversity and knowing that sometimes we believe for things and they they don't come out and this is it shouldn't always be like this it shouldn't be what should have happened is exactly what she was believing for for but when it didn't happen exactly like you had believed for you still didn't falter and fail and go oh that's it no you moved and you kept the action going saying there was no there was no disappointment there was no here I am three three C-sections in what happened to my Miracle God why why there was and that's why we needed that's why I needed the peace and I had more peace because I was more in the spirit than In the Flesh you deal with disappointment and fear if you're in the flesh but if you're you're in peace you don't have to deal with cuz you lean not on your own understanding I didn't have to lean why am I why am I getting another the C-section what happened why am I over here should I just keep going no I'm following peace it was like a highway and this was our this was our ex when you start thinking like that what happens is you start losing right Victory is on the other side of that but when you start going in that mindset what happens is that's when you start to lose because you start questioning everything when you should just say you know what that's not what I was believing for but I'm not the end result has not changed for me yeah I will see the other side and there will be Victory on it right that's where you get you you lose when you don't finish the race right and plus you know like yeah it would have been great to have that that natural delivery but I needed more faith to raise a baby back to life myself back to life you know yes and how you responded through the whole entire process there's a beautiful story behind it and it's not how people think it is that's one of the reasons I love this story because it does not go the direction that people think it they always think oh she's not going to have a C-section she's actually going to give it naturally and everything's going to be happy and and like there's it's like the a fairy tale story fairy tale stories are great but how often do they actually go like that it's when You Face adversity how do you get get through it that's real life yeah that's like when you own a business you are not going to have everybody come on board with you and do everything you say and be exactly the greatest employees you're going to face adversity what do you do with that adversity you fight through it you get to the other side there victory on the other side that's real life it is that's what the truth is so I just think that I I just I love that story I mean when I heard it the first time I was like that's real that's what's real and that's how you win yeah that's how you win because both of you would not be alive today if you did not do what you should have been doing N9 months prior to that and changed your heart had a bed and that's why I say to Logan Logan saved over a year gone to this church for two made decisions has seen God come through and and and that's what I love about the uh for her because just a year she can totally see but she's applied the word yeah and most people are not doing what Logan's done and she's only been saved for about a year and a half right she's gone to church for two but she's not been been safe for a year and a half you can't even get people to do what she's done in a year and a half yeah and that's why she they don't see the results she that's why she's gonna continue to accelerate because she doesn't have any of that religion tainting exactly you know and watering down her faith you know the righteous live by faith and that's like okay well if I'm I'm I wasn't in faith and now I am okay this is the way I live now exactly it's like an equation this 100% it's a beautiful thing so the what I do at the very end of every podcast and I'll leave this up to you if you don't want to you don't have to uh we we actually do the sinner's prayer okay so we invite anyone who's walked away from the Lord or anybody who wants to get their life right we invite them listen this story may not relate to you you're a guy we have plenty of guys who watch the podcast this but you may know it because of your wife or a family member or a friend or whatever and this speaks to you um but for women this definitely speaks to us women to some degree in to some capacity whether you've had a child or you've just had to like not been such a nice person always wanted it your way do you know what I'm saying cuz I I grew up I mean not grew up my personality was it's my way yeah and if it's not my way there will be there will be punishment for it like I didn't care if you were 20 years older than me you're going to be punished for not doing things my way right I was very critical very angry so this like your story my story uh maybe you were on the other side of me being the one that punished or you being critical of them or whatever and it speaks to you CU you understand what the heck what you doing girl um uh because you were on the other side of that you said I I've talked to someone like you it was rough you know um Everybody walks in a different place but to someone and to everyone I think they can relate to you and to what you've walked through and maybe you don't know the Lord and you need to because there's freedom in it like you're a whole different being I'm a whole different being the only one that can do that is God yeah outside of Jesus Christ Our Lord and Savior and the Holy Spirit that walks and dwells in each and every single one of us that ask him to be Lord of our life that is the only way you can radically be changed and literally be told you're acting in Pride and you sit there and go you know what you are right I am acting in Pride and then you start weeding it out you know only God can change somebody that's right that's it and each and every one of us need to be open to that but if you're not saved and if you don't know him today would you like to invite them like she's the master of Soul winning so speak to people okay um yeah if you've uh never asked Jesus as your lord and savior or you might have been in my case serving in your church but not hungry on fire for the Lord you know we we can lead you through a prayer just to rededicate your heart and uh and bring you back on fire because it's really about having a relationship ship with Jesus cuz if I was not where I was with my third delivery I mean we would definitely I would probably go to heaven but then see that there was nothing left of my life everything was wood hay and stubble I didn't build anything on Earth and we as Christians are also here to build we're here to build his kingdom we're here to build people and make disciples and if you're not doing any of those things because you're focused on your natural things or you're in the flesh and and more focused on on your everyday concerns then it's time to to get your heart right you know uh give it back to the Lord trust and and start applying the word and become a doer again yes and just listen and obey because he will Faithfully uh deliver you he'll set you free he'll put you on on a solid ground he'll he'll you know he'll bring you people in your life for you to be built up by whether it's here locally with Pastor Tom and Pastor hope or wherever you're listening you got to get plugged into a good church so that way you can continue to hear Faith the right way and it's not just about a church routine and so um so yeah it you know we we'll we can lead you into a prayer yeah just I'll pray with I mean you pray and I'll pray with you okay all right father I just thank you so much for every listener here I thank you Father for your fire to come upon uh their ears right now as they hear Let It Come and penetrate their hearts I pray father that if anybody is not saved if they've never asked Jesus as Lord and Savior or they fall into the category of where they have they've fallen asleep in their spiritual walk I pray father a spiritual Awakening to come upon them right now and if they want to rededicate their life and uh and be full and aresh or give their hearts for the first time I pray that they'll say this prayer out loud with me all right say dear Lord Jesus Come into my heart forgive me of my sins wash me and cleanse me and that Set Me Free set me free thank you Jesus you died for me you died for me fill me with the Holy Spirit me with the spirit give me a hunger for the things of God and a bold to preach the gospel go I'm saved and born again because I have Jesus in my heart Jesus amen amen great prayer girl thank you so much for joining us if you said that prayer let us know email us somehow even if

pKlCXWivHtY | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKlCXWivHtY | Varna (Hinduism) | Wikipedia audio article | Wikipedia audio article | Varna Varna is a Sanskrit word which means type order color or class the term refers to social classes in Brahminical books like the manoeuvre et these and other Hindu literature classified the society in principle into four varnas Brahmins priests scholars and teachers Kshatriyas rulers warriors and administrators Vaishyas agriculturalists and merchants sudras laborers and service providers communities which belong to one of the four varnas or classes are called Suvarna in the present day context they include all the forward castes the Dalits and Scheduled Tribes who do not belong to any Varna are called a Varna this quadruple division as a form of social stratification not to be confused with the much more nuanced jati or the European term cast the Varna system is discussed in Hindu texts and understood as idealized human callings the concept is generally traced to the purusha sukta verse of the Rig Veda the commentary on the Varna system in the minuite is oft cited counter to these textual classifications many Hindu texts and doctrines questioned and disagree with the Varna system of social classification topic etymology and origins Varna Varna Varna is a Sanskrit term it is derived from the root verb meaning to cover to envelop count classify consider describe or choose compare Virtua the word appears in the Rig Veda where it means color outward appearance exterior form figure or shape the word means color tint dye or pigment in the Mahabharata Varna contextual II means color race tribe species kind sort nature character quality property of an object or people in some Vedic and medieval texts Varna refers to four social classes in the manoeuvre 18 topic the Vedas the earliest application to the formal division into four social classes without using the term Varna appears in the late rig Vedic purusha sukta RV ten point nine zero point one one to twelve which has the Brahmin rajanya instead of cash shot Rhea Vaishya and Shudra classes forming the mouth arms thighs and feet at the sacrifice of the primordial Purusha respectively this purusha sukta Varna verse is now generally considered to have been inserted at a later date into the Vedic text possibly as a charter myth Stephanie Jamison and Joel Brereton a professor of Sanskrit and religious studies state there is no evidence in the Rig Veda for an elaborate much subdivided and over arching caste system and the Varna system seems to be embryonic in the Rig Veda and both then and later a social ideal rather than a social reality Ram Sharan Sharma states that the rig Vedic society was neither organized on the basis of social division of labor nor on that of differences in wealth it was primarily organized on the basis of kin tribe and lineage in the post vedic period the Varna division is described in the Dharma Shastra literature the Mahabharata and in the Puranas topic the Dharma's estrus Varna system is extensively discussed in Dharma sastras the Varna system in Dharma sastras divides society into four varnas Brahmins Kshatriyas Vaishya and sudras those who fall out of this system because of their Grievous sins are ostracized as outcasts Untouchables and considered outside the Varna system barbarians and those who are unrighteous or unethical are also considered outcasts recent scholarship suggests that the discussion of Varna as well as untouchable outcasts in these texts does not resemble the modern era caste system in India Patrick Allah vel a professor of Sanskrit and Indian religions and credited with modern translations of Vedic literature Dharma sutras and Dharma sastras states that ancient and medieval Indian texts do not support the ritual pollution purity impurity as the basis for Varna system according to Allah vel purity impurity is discussed in the Dharma sastra texts but only in the context of the individual's moral ritual and biological pollution eating certain kinds of foods such as meat urination and defecation in his review of Dharma sastras Olive L writes we see no instance when a term of pure impure is used with reference to a group of individuals or a Varna or caste the only mention of impurity in the Shastra texts from the first millennium is about people who commit grievous sins and thereby fall out of their Varna these rights Olive L are called fallen people and impure declaring that they be ostracized Allah vel adds that the overwhelming focus in matters relating to purity impurity in the Dharma sastra Texas concerns individuals irrespective of their Varna affiliation and all four varnas could attain purity or impurity by the content of their character ethical intent actions innocence or ignorance stipulations and ritualistic behaviors Olive L states Dumont is correct in his assessment that the ideology of Varna is not based on purity if it were we should expect to find at least some comment on the relative purity and impurity of the different families what is even more important is that the ideology of purity and impurity that emerges from the Dharma literature is concerned with the individual and not with groups with purification and not with purity and lens little support to a theory which makes relative purity the foundation of social stratification the first three varnas are described in the Dharma's esters as twice-born and they are allowed to study the Vedas such a restriction of who can study Vedas is not found in the Vedic era literature manoeuvre et assigns cattle-rearing as Vaishya occupation but historical evidence shows that Brahmins Kshatriyas and shooters also owned and reared cattle and that cattle wealth was mainstay of their households Ram Marion Rawat a professor of history and specializing in social exclusion in the Indian subcontinent states that 19th century British records show that shamar's listed as Untouchables also on land in cattle and were active agriculturalists the emperors of Kosala and the prince of kasi are other examples tim Ingold an anthropologist writes that the minuite is a highly schematic commentary on the Varna system but it too provides models rather than descriptions Susan Bailey states that minuite and other scriptures helped elevate brahman in the social hierarchy and these were a factor in the making of the Varna system but the ancient texts did not in some way create the phenomenon of caste in India topic the epics the mahabharata-- estimated to have been completed by about the fourth century see he discusses the Varna system in section 12.1 81 the epic offers two models on Varna the first model describes Varna as color-coded system through a sage named bhrigu Brahmans Varna was white stria 's was red Vaishyas was yellow and the shudras black this description is questioned by another prominent sage bharadvaja who says that colours are seen among all the varnas that desire anger fear greed grief anxiety hunger and toil prevails over all human beings that bile and blood flow from all human bodies so what distinguishes the varnas he asks the Mahabharata then declares according to Alf hilt vital a professor of religion there is no distinction of varnas this whole universe is Brahman it was created formerly by Brahma came to be classified by acts the Mahabharata thereafter recites a behavioral model for Varna that those who were inclined to anger pleasures and boldness attained the cash shot Rhea Varna those who were inclined to cattle-rearing and living off the plough attained the Vaishyas those who were fond of violence covetousness and impurity attained the sudras the brahmin class is modeled in the epic as the archetype default state of man dedicated to truth austerity and pure conduct indeed it goes on to assert that all men are children of Brahmans which does not make sense unless understood this way in the Mahabharata and pre medieval era Hindu texts according to hilt vital it is important to recognize in theory Varna as non genealogical the four varnas are not lineages but categories the bhagavad-gita described the professions duties and qualities of members of different varnas there is no entity on earth or again in heaven among the Devas that is devoid of these three gunas born of Prakriti of brahmanas and Kshatriyas and Vaishyas as also of sudras a scorcher of foes the duties are distributed according to the gunas born of their own nature the control of the mind and the senses austerity purity forbearance and also uprightness knowledge realization belief in a Hereafter these are the duties of the Ramin is born of their own nature prowess boldness fortitude dexterity and also not flying from battle generosity and sovereignty are the duties of the Kshatriyas born of their own nature agriculture cattle rearing and trade are the duties of the Vaishyas born of their own nature an action consisting of service as the duty of the sudras born of their own nature topic varna in buddhist texts you ancient Buddhist texts mentioned Varna system in South Asia but the details suggest that it was a non rigid flexible and with characteristics devoid of features of a social stratification system Maurice Walsh a German scholar and translator of Deegan Akaya provides a discussion between Gotama Buddha and a Hindu Brahmin named Sona Donda who was very learned in the Vedas Gotama Buddha asked Cindy Gannett kaya according to the Theravada Pali text translation by Walsh by how many qualities do Brahmins recognize another brahmana how would one declared truthfully and without falling into falsehood I am a Brahmin Sona Donda initially lists five qualities as he is of pure descent on both the mothers and the father's side he is well versed in mantras he is a fair color handsome and pleasing he is virtuous learned and wise and he is the first or second to hold the sacrificial ladle Buddha then asks the Brahmin if we omit one of these qualities you just listed could not one be still a true Brahmin Sona Donda one-by-one eliminates fair color and looks then eliminates Varna in which one was born and then eliminates the ability to recite mantra and do sacrifices as a requirement of being a Brahmin Sona Donda asserts that just two qualities are necessary to truthfully and without falling into false hold identify a Brahmin these two qualities are being virtuous and being learned and wise Sona Donda adds states Walsch that it is impossible to reduce the requirement for being a Brahmin any further because for wisdom is purified by morality and morality is purified by wisdom where one is the other is the moral man has wisdom and the wise man has morality and the combination of morality and wisdom is called the highest thing in the world Bryan black and Dean patent states ananda admits after this wheat ramens only know this much Gotama it would be well if reverend Gotama would explain meaning of the two morality wisdom Peter Mays field a buddhism scholar an ancient poly texts translator states that during the nakiya texts period of buddhism third century bc ii 5th century ad Varna as a class system as attested but the described Varna was not a caste system the Pali texts enumerate the four varnas brahman cash arya VESA Vaishya and sutta Shudra maize field notes that people in any Varna could in principle perform any profession the early Buddhist texts for instance identify some Brahmans to be farmers and in other professions the text state that anyone of any birth could perform the priestly function and that the Brahmin took food from anyone suggesting that strictures of commenced allottee were as yet unknown the nakiya texts also imply that endogamy was not mandated in ancient India maize field concludes if any form of caste system was known during the nakiya period and it is doubtful that it was this was in all probability restricted to certain non-aryan groups you topic varna in Jaina texts Adie Purana an eighth century text of Jainism by Jenna Sina is the earliest mention of Varna and jati and Jainism literature Jenna Cena does not trace the origin of Varna system to Rig Veda or to purusha sukta instead traces Varna to the Bharata legend according to this legend bharata performed an ahimsa test test of non-violence and those members of his community who refused to harm or hurt any living being were called as the priestly Varna in ancient India and Barada called them Divi ija twice-born Jinnah cena states that those who are committed to ahimsa are Deva brahmanas divine Brahmins the text adi purana also discusses the relationship between Varna and jati according to Padmanabha Jani a professor of Indic studies Jainism and Buddhism the adi purana texts states there is only one jati called Manasa hottie or the human caste but divisions arise account of their different professions the Varna of Cascia tria arose when Rishabh procured weapons to serve the society and assumed the powers of a king while vaisya and sudra Varna arose from different means of livelihood in which they specialized topic varna in sikh texts you Sikhism is a late 15th century religion that originated in the Punjab region of the Indian subcontinent sikh texts mentioned Varna as voron and jati as satyrs at burro dari Elinor Nesbitt a professor of religion and specializing in Christian Hindu and Sikh studies states that the Voronezh described as a class system in 18th to 20th century Sikh literature while that reflected the in dogmas occupational groups caste the Sikh texts authored by the Sikh gurus and by non seek Bhagat such as the Namdev Ravidas and Kabir states Nesbitt declared the irrelevance of Varner's ad of one's birth to one's spiritual destiny they taught that all of humanity had a single refuge and that the divine teaching is for everyone Sikhism teaches a society without any voron in practice states Hajj attaboy secondary Sikh texts such as the Khalsa Dharam sassed are in 1914 argued that the entry of certain Sikh castes into major Sikh shrines should be barred similarly in practice in its texts the Guru's of Sikhism did not condemn or break with the convention of marrying and marrying their children within the Jyothi and all the Sikh gurus were Khatri had Khatri wives and practiced arranged marriages within theirs at according to Dobbin the rehidden Ami's and other prescriptive sikh texts from mid 18th century onwards accommodate and affirm de natal and marriage traditions of different caste groups within the sikh community Ravid aussi Sikhs and Ram garius Sikhs follow their own textual and festive traditions gather in their own places of worship these are varn based caste based religious congregations that emerged from Sikhism states nesbitt the rabadash iya group for example emphasizes the teachings of bigotry vedas a poet saint born in a family whose traditional untouchable occupation related to dead animals and leather they consider the teachings of living gurus in the texts of rabid-ass dara as sacred and spiritually as important as the historic sikh viewers this is rejected by Khalsa Sikhs the disagreements have led the rabadash iya seeks to launch the rabadash iya religion movement which amongst other things seeks to replace the Guru Granth Sahib in their gurdwaras with the texts of Ravidas topic Varna and jati the terms varna theoretical classification based on occupation and jati caste are two distinct concepts jati

1U5WzB3QPbs | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1U5WzB3QPbs | Spiralizer Ultimate 7 Blade Vegetable Slicer Spiralizer Review | hey this is Victoria from all my good ideas were taken I got me a new kitchen gadget today it came in the mail from Amazon which is a miracle I love Amazon because the other day I made zoodles for the very first time with a handheld one of those little ones you twist the zucchini in two and it was hard but we liked zoodles so I hopped online and I ordered me a spiralizer and here it is we're gonna unbox it and we're going to make some doodles oh okay it's got this handy little container for keeping your blades nice and together but instead he had seven blades and that only holds four so I'm guessing the other three are somewhere all right this is everything in the box free gift to celebrate and thank our supporters we're giving away a stainless steel julienne peeler to anyone who has left a review for our seven blade spiral slicer on amazon we'll even cover shipping and handling and then it tells you how to do it that's cool I just might go online and do that and here is the ultimate seven blade instructions all right so crank and 20 all right so here are two more blades oh that's nice protects a blade during shipping they have a little catch in the back that keeps them from falling out which is nice we'll just put those back in turn and then one blade here so that's all seven blades all right oh that's your okay Hanna I understand ouch but okay well that could not have been any easier I mean really I guess that's for cleaning your blades so hold on it has a suction cup oh and a lever Oh awesome okay so okay so let's see how well does it hold on oh wow it is attached that's awesome because otherwise it will slide around okay so I'll tell you what let's put this baby into action you shift the camera over just a bit you know what I'm actually gonna turn it around so you can see the zoodles there you go yeah that's a good angle it'll be a little bit awkward for me but that's okay because this is for YouTube I need a bowl to catch the zoodles all right let's make us some zoodles my zucchini are washed and prepared except for this part Oh which blade do I need as this blade is just gonna cut a ribbon so I need to find a zucchini blade this one looks like it would do it I'm gonna go with that one cuz this one if you look this one's gonna make bigger noodles this one's gonna be much finer I don't want like angel hair noodles so take that piece of tape off that in the handy-dandy caddy position our Bowl oh I guess we just make them onto the counter hmm that could be a little bit better but do you have paper plates hopefully they won't go on to the floor alright so let's get this puppy in gear so put your zucchini on the center and then bring the end up turn it this way and since I'm on the wrong side of it I can't use the handle I'm just gonna have to put pressure on the crank holy cow that is so much easier than that handheld thing oh this is like magic and the suction cup is I'm pushing hard fairly hard and the suction cup is holding it steady and there it is it stops itself before you actually get to the so you have this leftover looking crazy looking thing and look at that perfect notice rusty can you see this cool I know how it took me like an hour to do those four zucchini the other day week with that handheld thing this took like 30 seconds I think so let's put them in the bowl because I'm making a zucchini noodle dinner tonight and these noodles are going in it this is Sookie me all right let's do one more all right here we go can you see whoof okay so the suction cup did come loose there's no zucchini on the floor well this is zucchini down some noodles anyway alright so put it back down it doesn't want to stay stuck I think it's because that the suction cup has a little bit of oh y'all aren't getting none the dogs they died before the dogs think I'm making something for them see how this suction cup has like crud on it that's my countertop probably I thought it was clean all right we're going to try this sucker again all right here we go part two it's not positioned quite right oh but it's working that's okay and there we are at the end that is pretty cool all right so I've got two more zucchini to spiralize and then I'm going to go into the house to the other kitchen to do the cooking because this is the RV and it's hot outside and it's hard enough to regulate the temperature in here we're not going to use the oven or the stove in here so anyway I'm gonna go do the cooking in there thanks for watching this has been all my good ideas we're takin and give us a thumbs up if you liked it leave a comment if you have something to say good bad or otherwise everything

m6mAggnzc0A | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6mAggnzc0A | Preference Representation in Majoritarian vs Proportional Systems | it's a pleasure for me to welcome you to this presentation of the paper entitled preference representation and the influence of political parties in majoritarian versus proportional systems this is a joint paper with marco portman and ryan eichenberger my name is david startleman we know very well that electoral systems determine the role of party affiliations for representation of constituents preferences mainly in majoritarian systems we have the result that politicians converge to the median independently of the party affiliations so individual party affiliation should not affect the quality of representation of a constituency in proportional voting systems politicians may spread over the political spectrum according to the party affiliations and thus individual party affiliation should affect the quality of representation of a constituency thus the theory regarding electoral systems is clear and also conforms to conventional expectations but looking at the empirical literature there doesn't seem to be a clear and stringent empirical verification of this differential effect that party affiliations play under different electoral systems a strict and stringent empirical test has to satisfy at least four conditions we have to have a measure of congruence between politicians and the revealed preferences of constituents politicians must come from the very same constituencies but they must be elected under different electoral rules politicians must be from both electoral systems but they vote on the very same issues so that we can confront politicians from both electoral systems directly and most importantly and most challenging we must observe politicians from the very same common party systems our contribution here is that we have an empirical test which really satisfies all these conditions in particular we use referenda in switzerland and referenda represent a preference ranking of policies against the status quo either you accept a referendum or you reject it thus you reveal your preferences the interesting thing with swiss data is that we can match legislators decisions with referenda data on precisely the same issues we observe legislators roll call votes in parliament and citizens then vote on precisely the same issue in referenda thus we can directly compare what representatives do and what constituents actually want and this gives us a new and natural measure of congruence let me say it in pictures we know what these people here really do what legislators in parliament do and we know what constituents actually wanted when voting in a referendum thus the first condition seems to be satisfied we have a direct measure of congruence for politicians and constituents preferences the second condition for a stringent empirical test is that we need to observe politicians from two different electoral systems in switzerland we have two houses one house the national council is elected by a proportional system while the council is of states is elected by a majoritarian system we have 26 different cantons and 26 electoral districts and the districts are the very same for both houses so we really observe politicians from the very same districts but elected under two different electoral systems which would be the second condition for sting and empirical tests which is satisfied the third and fourth condition is that we need to observe politicians uh who do the same decisions in both houses we have 26 referenda from 2007 to 2011 and we really have the same decisions in the national council and in the council of states thus the third condition is satisfied and most importantly there is a common party system for both houses we observe the same major parties in the lower house and in the upper house and we have information on individual party affiliation for all members of parliament thus we really observe politicians from the same parties elected under different electoral systems representing the same constituents and deciding on precisely the same issues which satisfies all four conditions for stringent empirical tests having said that and having given you the conditions for the stringent empirical tests we can already come to the main results which can be represented in a simple graph regarding the differential influence of parties on congruence depending on the electoral systems what we observe is that when comparing members of the national council which are proportionally elected with members of the council of states is that we observe that matches with a constituency's preferences are always lower for members of the national council than for the council of states thus on average majority like the senators councillors of state tend to have a higher level of congruence than proportionally elected members of the national council more importantly for our test we observe that national councillors from left and from right parties deviate significantly more from constituents preferences than representatives from the center thus under proportional electoral system we observe that party affiliations play a role under majoritarian electoral systems we observe that there are only minor and insignificant differences in congruence between different party members so we cannot state that party plays a significant role of course we provide a large number of further results and robustness tests in logistic models with district fixed effects additional controls rolling regressions etc the result always remains the same the result is that majority elected politicians represent the majority of their constituents independently of party affiliation however party affiliation of politicians influences representation under proportional rule and we provided a strong and stringent empirical test for the common theory and the conventional expectations we use a new and natural measure of congruence we observe politicians from different electoral systems however the politicians decide on the very same issues and they come from the very same common parties which are represented in both houses so we provide a direct empirical test for the common theory that party affiliations play a differential role depending on the electoral system

TimIdEhx3Pw | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TimIdEhx3Pw | Inserts Apr '90 to unknown | and the monkeys off your back kick the habit puffs puffs aside when you wake up stop the when you blow or when you're on the go maybe to be nice a treat nose puffs with softer fibers outside and strong ones inside so puffs are softer than the leading brands distraught at all this week Bart travelin man Neil bubble Zurcher as he hits the road to check out some of the most popular places and destinations we'll be going this summer all to the north of Lake Erie [Music] they call this the longest unguarded border in the world getting into Canada can be as easy as just stopping at the border answering a couple of questions and you're on your way but they could require you to prove your citizenship so it might be a good idea to carry along your birth certificate I remember it is a foreign country and there are rules and regulations up here that you have to follow it might be a good idea to get a copy of this travel information form is available from the Canadian Consulate it'll tell you everything you need to know about coming to Canada so once you're through the border the next question is where to go and a great place to make your first stop is at one of these handy Ontario travel information centers operated by the Canadian government and we will route them anywhere in the province offer our publications on various things to do accommodations campgrounds various activities in the province and we also have the racks of brochures which they can help themselves to this is all free this is all free as well as travel counseling no not a penny while you're here make a stop of the money exchange and convert your American cash into Canadian funds while most Canadian businesses will take American money you may not always get the best exchange rate that you'll get here or at a bank oh and one more thing you might want to pick up at the stop that's one of these in Ontario sales tax refund forms what it means is if you save all your receipts while you're up here when the things you buy when you get back home if you meet certain requirements you can send them all back to Ontario and they'll refund the 8% sales tax they charge here as well as perhaps the 5% accommodations tax you pay at hotels and motels just one more way to make your money go a bit farther while you're visiting Canada we're headed for what the Auto Club says is the second most popular destination in Canada for Northeast Ohio one's honeymoon capital Niagara Falls just about every adjective in the dictionary has been used to describe the majesty of these Falls it is without a doubt one of the wonders of the world even in late spring ice formations still fill the gorge adding to the spectacle and yes you can still get a honeymoon certificate at the local Chamber of Commerce and yes a lot of folks still come here to spend their honeymoon how do the local folks spot them who shoes issued they've got new shoes for the wedding and and the Rings the Rings are a lot shinier its views like this that make Michaels in by the Falls one of the favorites of the lovers who come here the Suites range from the exotic like the garden of paradise with its jungle pool made of fiberglass rocks and lava to the simple elegance of the oriental suite with its delicate taste and artistry without a jacuzzi built for two if you'd like to get into the swim here to enjoy one of these special rooms make your reservations as soon as possible especially for weekends in the summertime and they should put a No Vacancy sign up on the city sign because it's it will be booked from Buffalo to Toronto as for other things to do around the Falls there is the Niagara Falls Museum the oldest such establishment in North America inside you'll find such things as the actual barrels used by those seeking fame by writing the barrels over the Falls and living to tell about it some did and some did not there's also this little corner where you can at least imagine what it must be like the glittery facade of Niagara Falls that some people love and other people hate comes alive at night on Clifton Hill you can visit such places as the Elvis Presley museum became a little more elaborate this was a little settled yes but a glitter and glitz is not for you just 20 minutes away is the Canada of a century ago we'll visit there in our next report I Neal Zurcher NewsCenter 8 on a special series of one tank trips across southern Ontario [Music] and that's her news at 6:00 the CBS Evening News is next thank you for sharing your time with us we hope to see you right back here tonight at 11:00 have a good evening [Music] it's a nation southern Ontario Canada tonight Neil makes a stop at a town just downriver from Niagara Falls a place where only a few miles make a lot of difference [Music] [Applause] when you look down the sleepy Main Street of this quaint village niagara-on-the-lake it's hard to believe that you're only 20 minutes from the flash and bustle of Niagara Falls no neon computerized signs that scream at you here just simple hand-painted walls that like their businesses have stood the test of time specialty shops that handle only one product like Greaves jams and marmalades since 1927 we start with the ginger marmalade we have three fruit marmalade lime lemon we make Kobe Seville orange orange lemon which is the original recipe that started the company in 1927 peel over at the Niagara bakery a town fixture for a half century and more even a rainy day doesn't keep the Baker from his dough kneading chores local residents expect their bread fresh and hot each day this town's British heritage is worn proudly you see it in the buildings and in the people just stopped in at the lottery and asked what time is tea from 2:00 until 5:00 now we're not particularly sticky about it in the winter sometimes people want it later or earlier in the summer we stick to the hours because it's sort of a tricky little thing to do Margaret who was born and raised in England says many Americans come in and request a high tea which in England is a sort of combined heavy dinner and tea what she thinks they really want is this this is afternoon tea and this is gesture compose usually with scones and little sandwiches the scones here and little sandwiches and little small cakes they'd be very small and of course the tea and elegance is the only way to describe some of the overnight lodgings here in the a ground the lake this is Queen's Landing in the newest in the village in fact it had only been open one month when we visited each bedroom has canopy beds and a real wood-burning fireplace and some of the private bathrooms have whirlpool baths [Applause] [Music] but this is something that also sets in a hag around the lake apart from other quaint villages this is the internationally acclaimed Shaw Festival today three theaters in town annually present the famed Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw's works as well as other writers both Canadian and American in a summer long festival of theater however if small villages are even too big for you in our next report we'll head north to show you one of the most romantic hideaways in Ontario a tiny and hidden away in a century old grist mill only sounds you'll hear is the rush of water below your window I hope you'll join me as we continue our special series of one tank trips across southern Ontario ideals are current news generator and if you would like a free copy of Neil's all-new volume 9 one tank trip book just send a self-addressed Business sized envelope with two 25 cent stamps on it to one tank trips p.o box 6 7 7 9 Cleveland Ohio 4 for 101 and that's our news at 6 and the CBS Evening News with Dan Rather is neck thank you for sharing your time with us we hope to see you back here tonight at 11 have a good evening and go Cavs but head for Canada according to the Auto Club all this week our travelin man Neil Zurcher is driving across southern Ontario looking at what there is to see and do and tonight Neil visits the tiny town of the Laura Canada here's Neil in a one tank trip something to bear in mind while driving across these miles and miles of open space in Canada those speed signs along the road are in kilometers not miles per hour that means that 80 kilometers translates to 50 miles per hour keep your eye on your speedometer and take your time speaking of time let's make a stop here in Kitchener Ontario at the colonial times clock company they offer a free look at how six men hand-assembled these beautiful giant plots using modern tools work a lot faster than you might think and building each one by the time we get the chime box on would average about 12 you know powers like if you take the machine where it took their they assembly they finishing it some of the finish clocks sell for nearly $2,000 and up but they also sell kits that you can assemble yourself for far less you know those European looking streets in the Canadian tourist commercials they really do exist we found one here in the Alaura Canada this tiny village of 1,200 seems to be the ideal place for a getaway Mill Street is a place where you can find all kinds of artwork gifts from around the world and antiques like the Eola antique shop operated by Jackie made low who was one of the first business people to recognize the potential of Ellora she says the town wouldn't have the charm nor the business it has today if it hadn't been for one group of people women who one woman lost their husband died another one was separated and she bought the building I'm in right there and then she phoned friends of hers in Toronto and they began a little tea room just down the street here the Desert Rose that's how it all started that all started but the real gem here in Ellora is the Elora Mill in a grist mill that sets the joining of two rivers rushing water still drive turbines beneath the mill creating the electricity used by the inn and much of the village the dining room on the first floor offers gourmet dining specializing in poultry and fish dishes all well prepared and reasonably priced the other floors are taken up with bedrooms each different in size and decoration each with a private bath and a view of the river and gorge operators of the inn admit they seem to be one of Canada's best-kept secrets but so it would seem it in fact it's surprising sometimes we are actually well known throughout the world and yet occasionally someone will drive in even from Kitchener and say wow I didn't know you were here admittedly there is not much nightlife here in Ellora if you're looking for a place where the moonlight is unobstructed by street lights and where the music of Two Rivers under your windows sings you to sleep more a mill in is definitely for you in our next segment we head for Georgian Bay and get surprised by a springtime snow will climb Blue Mountain and spend the night in a bed and breakfast in a bed once owned by the king of England I hope you'll join me as we continue our special series of one tank trips across southern Ontario five males are News Center if you'd like a free copy of Neal's all-new volume 9 one tank trip book just send a self-addressed business sized envelope with 225 cent stamps on it to one tank trips peel box 6 7 7 9 Cleveland 4 for 101 and that's our news at 6 the CBS Evening News with Dan Rather snip wondered where Canadians go for their holiday here's Neil with the answer on a one tank trip [Music] we already know that the favorite destination of most Northeast Ohio ones in the summertime is Canada but it occurred to me where do Canadians go to get away well the answer is they also go north to the Georgian Bay area we arrived on the heels of a freak spring snowstorm this is the Blue Mountain that overlooks Collingwood in Wasaga Beach Canada from up here you can see nearly 40 miles in every direction Collingwood is also home to the famed Blue Mountain pottery company their Factory and outlet stores are both open to the public here you can watch the various stages of the collectible figures as they are molded from the mountain clay over 700,000 people pass through this Factory last year and collectors of the Blue Mountain pottery are everywhere if collectors all over the world probably to the tune of receiving a letter once a week from various parts of the world we have a collectors club in Australia and New Zealand both at the factory you can buy factory seconds at a savings of 30% same comedian WC Fields said there's a sucker born every minute he might have been talking about the candy factory here in Collingwood and the suckers were talking about are these huge lollipops that are sold in amusement parts here and abroad to last a lifetime this dandy weighs in at 5 pounds the business of making moly pops is a complicated one and you're invited to watch each day as the candy makers use a process that has changed little in the last hundred years stretching and putting air into the molten sugar to give the candy its color and flavor Collingwood has a lot of

water you actually believe you're about to make a flight into outer space especially when the door to the airlock swings open and you enter the spacecraft the shows about to start and the special effects are incredible it's a simulated rocket ship right out of our Earth's atmosphere to explore the universe and it's so realistically done that Omni magazine termed it as one of the ten best rides in North America ladies gentlemen I'll be jettisoned our history at times it's a real white-knuckle flight welcome to outer space the secret is this a converted simulator of a 747 jet aircraft that's been made to look like a spacecraft these hydraulic lifts can create just about any formal motion inside the cabin I'd like to thank you for flying what is today a tour of the universe a great way to

tank trip [Music] it sounds like an angry Hornet when the motor starts it's a hovercraft a sort of cross between an airplane boat and motorcycle you actually fly six inches off the ground then folding the craft with your body lifting a weight side to side on your knees to let the air escape from one side of the craft the other to control your speed and direction Lyons owns and operates Norwalk

in at a rehearsal at SeaWorld found a sure cure for hot tired feet as they're water skiers prepare for another season and Shamu was promising some new exciting skills this year using his nose to make a speedboat out of his trainer and take a tip from that youngster in the yellow raincoat especially if you sit close to the tank because the whales are going to make this the wettest season yet a good rainy day stop or even a nice day stop is here at the Kent State University Museum and Kent while the emphasis is on fashion down through the years they even have Queen Victoria's underwear on display creative director and curator Shannon Rodgers says he's often amused by the reaction of husbands who accompany their wives to the museum they don't see fashion which and the wives are too convinced they should come in and suddenly they see oh we didn't know it was gonna be anything like this to you that ships and everything in here just down the street is a great place to stop for a refreshment tanks ice cream and yogurt maybe even won national awards for their homemade ice cream which incidentally they make fresh every other day and they'll let you mix the flavors better yogurt or chocolate ice cream chocolate chip ice cream lowers its it's just this just tastes like a recipe I opted for butter pecan and she was right it's some of the best ice cream we found in our travels if you and the family would like to try camping out without spending a lot of money then check out the Stowe Parks and Recreation Department's run a tip program $15 you get everything you see here the tent to cots

really good evening [Music] amusement park and donning his test pilot duds is our travelin man Neil Zurcher as he takes to the sky in this week's of one tank trip [Music] [Applause] it looks innocuous enough sitting there on the ground but that's before the padded bar over your shoulders has snapped into place and that metal bar across your laughs is locked you know that this ride is going to be a bit different you're lifted 60 feet into the air and the tower starts to rotate that's when you discover this ride can be as tame as a carousel or with a touch of a joystick you can turn this cockpit into a rolling diving twisting turning experience makes your stomach send messages that it would have rather stayed on the ground it's called flight commander and there's a new breed of ride that lets the passenger determine just how much thrill they want in the ride looks like Kings Island has a winner here one tip be sure that harness is on tight as possible otherwise you'll end up with bruised shoulders from bouncing all over the cockpit for you bargain hunters how about a visit to a feather factory actually downlight international of King's Mills is one of the leading manufacturers of down from betting and clothing sold by some of the biggest names in American Department and mail-order stores they offered tours of the plant for free here's the good part have a factory outlet store where you can buy over runs and seconds at considerable savings and we have comforts to start off with 59.95 progressed all the way up into very high-end goods that they get into your three and four hundred dollars but again those are those are products that would sell elsewhere for 800 to a thousand Clark says that typical savings are forty to sixty percent at the factory store you'd like to try an unusual place to eat try the brass pig in nearby Springboro the folks here always have eight to ten soups cooking all homemade they serve no red meat and nothing that is deep-fried but that doesn't mean that some things aren't high in calories but they have the answer for that the pig wine just bring our pig wand out and go over at once or twice and it supposedly takes all the calories out makes the guilt go away and we sell them off a lot of that Southwest Ohio a fun place to be and best of all it's just a one tank trip I'm Neal Zurcher NewsCenter 8 they eat all that just before you go on that ride and then you don't have to worry about the calories or the pig one that's our news at 6:00 the CBS Evening News is next thank you for sharing your time with us we hope to see you right back here tonight hate to see the most scenic whitewater river in Pennsylvania and he also has a tip on a place to stay that's almost in the clouds here's Neil and a one tank trip [Music] [Applause] [Music] the Janka Guinea River in Ohio Pyle Pennsylvania has been famous for years for their whitewater raft trips and with all the rain we've had this spring river is high and running fast making the trips more exciting than ever you can cover the eight miles of twisting Rapids through the Ohiopyle Park in just about four hours this is still the closest place to Cleveland to experience whitewater rafting and now there's a new way to enjoy the rugged yogini river without even getting wet recently opened is as the 11 mile-long bike trail that follows the track bed of an abandoned railroad line right along the water's edge just about every rafting outfitter along the river now also rents the sturdy mountain bikes which can be leased by the hour day or week and the trail isn't finished yet it will eventually connect us with Connellsville Pennsylvania flowing north or going north towards Pittsburgh and there are plants in the future for possibly down into Maryland and DC what I like about the trail beside the beauty that can be seen along the way is that it's virtually level only slight Hills so anyone even an inexperienced biker like myself and ride it very easily and even if you can't ride a bike there are plenty of easily accessible lookouts to enjoy the beauty of Ohiopyle State Park only a short distance away as one of Pennsylvania's famous ski resorts Hidden Valley while you won't find any snow here in the spring and summer the resort is open with many things to do golf camps are held here on their championship mountain top golf course and their clay tennis courts are also used in the summer for instructional camps with good bargain packages that include both lessons and a stay at one of the plush mountain condos that they rent for the night week or month Southwest Pennsylvania can be easily reached by Turnpike it's about a four-hour drive from Cleveland and best of all it's just a one tank trip I'm Neil Zurcher News Center Inc who was that with me oh no we're trying to figure it out hmm that's all of our news at 6:00 thank you for sharing your time with us and stay tuned for the CBS Evening News next we invite you to tube down on the farm just a couple of stops tonight as our travelin man Neil Zurcher sets out on a one tank trip to Lake County down this country lane you'll find one of this area's newest and most exciting attractions this is the lake metro parks new farm park my son Craig and I stopped off this week to look around inside the modern central building that resembles a barn you'll find high-tech displays to educate you about farming you can get a close-up look at how animals life cycle works that's not all there are rides to be had in horse-drawn wagons that take you up on a hillside where you can look back at the park in the barn the kids can milk a real cow and no fancy milking machines here they still do it the old-fashioned way there are also tractors both big and little that the kids can climb and play on and the best part is that no matter when you visit things are always changing no day is like the day that preceded there lots of things you do this same kind of way but they're there new animals born almost every day and things like that are constantly changing there's more to see and do here like the maze and the hay mal and there's more to come in the years ahead including a complete working farm right out of the 1950s chicken dinners are also a part of farm life and here at Meador were pleased to learn that Romans for a Madison restaurant that prepares some of the best buffalo wings in Ohio just opened a carry-out restaurant where their famous wings are sold and quality must be showing they're already selling over a ton of wings a week have you ever wanted to take the old family buggy and head out to the drag strip and try this this is Thompson dragway and Thompson Ohio and believe it or not you can do exactly that race the family car on Wednesday nights any kind of street driven car or motorcycle we race for trophies and you have to have any special equipment everybody has is required to have seatbelt good tires on their cars and a helmet on Saturday nights the professionals like these people take over you may have seen it on television but in person you get a good idea why they call it Rolling Thunder lake and giardia counties can be easily reached from Cleveland and best of all it's just a one tank trip I bet you thought I was going to race my metropolitan I just didn't want to make those other guys look bad feels ERK ERK NewsCenter 8 and that's her news at 6:00 the CBS evening [Music] let's go pigeons cafeteria here in tiny Dunbar Pennsylvania we'll never get any spot Awards most of the tables don't match the chairs we've seen better days but that doesn't seem to bother the almost never-ending line of customers who fill this place six days a week they come here for the price the Pepsi here cost me a dime the hamburger just 19 cents now you might think these are promotional costs but they aren't there everyday prices here at peaches cafeteria in Dunbar Pennsylvania and it doesn't stop with hamburgers the most expensive item on the menu is a plate dinner meat potatoes vegetable and roll all for 79 cents and it's been that way for quite a while I think we raise the dinner price 10 cents in 17 years it started out at 69 cents and now the dinner is 79 cents coffee is still a dime here and you can buy an ice cream cone for just 20 cents how do they do it volume while you sell Lots art oh by the way on Mondays if you're a senior citizen the dinner is free from fairytale food prices let's turn to another fixture of this area Idlewild park and it's storybook for us celebrating 35 years bringing fairy tales to life nursery rhymes that become real a gentle park that seems the perfect setting bring to life televisions mr. Rogers neighborhood of make-believe from the moment you climb on that bright red trolley car find yourself face to face with King Friday the 13th all the imaginary residents of mr. Rogers neighborhood are here corny Daniel tiger Lady Elaine in her wondrous music museum the list goes on and you only need to look at the faces on the children on the trolley no they feel welcome here and ready to break into song [Music] happy Dunbar and Ligonier Pennsylvania are easily reached by Turnpike and are just about four hours in Cleveland best of all it's just a one tank trip I'm Neal Zurcher NewsCenter 8 [Music] [Applause] take this link all those trees out there they just go for miles and miles you know I bet there's not another building within miles of this place isn't camping a lot of fun Yeah right that was supposed to sleep in a tent not oh well Craig makes a good point but to a lot of people this is the perfect way to camp out close to nature in the middle of thousands of acres of forest and in an air-conditioned Lodge like here at Salt Fork State Park you don't have to look very far to find people who consider this camping out just take a stroll by the Salt Fork swimming pool on a nice day and you'll run into campers like Roger book holds of Wooster yeah this is a lot nicer than sleeping on the ground if it rains Roger says he's camped other ways but this is the ideal way to go a lodge room a swimming pool and a place to stretch out in the Sun he says this is also the ideal place for first-time campers who aren't sure what kind of camping they want to do they can find it all here you can come here then just walk 500 feet see how the camping is and you can get a good idea these last couple of days the air conditioning has been nice Salt Fork does offer the best of both worlds hidden away a half hour's drive from the main road the lodge sits in splendid isolation amidst thousands of acres of forest and lake Craig and I went exploring the fudge shop here at the lodge is almost legendary and few visitors can leave without trying at least a small piece looks good to me there is also the Salt Fork gift shop in the lodge a place to buy souvenirs as well as those things you forgot to pack and if you swim well the weather doesn't matter they have both an outside and an inside heated pool that is open year-round and there are other things to do golf and tennis volleyball don't worry if you don't have a team there seems to always be a pickup game going on for those that like a less strenuous sport there is shuffleboard courts both outside and inside and when it comes to eating you don't have to worry about mosquitoes inside this huge dining room at Salt Fork Lodge with its view of the surrounding forests and hills so what does this cost to camp out at Salt Fork lodge our guest rooms now during the summertime are $68 a night for one person in a room plus your tax of course and then 82 for two people in a room did you bring the kids along a little bit little bit that's even better that's still just 82 plus tax a night because children 18 and under stay free with us I should point out that Salt Fork is the most expensive state park Lodge in Ohio there are six other lodges and other parks that offers similar accommodations at slightly lower costs if you're interested make reservations early because they're usually booked far ahead on weekends just call one 800 at a park for more information for our next stop Craig and I will take to the water for a nautical camping trip aboard a houseboat I hope you'll join us as we learn about camping a special series of one tank trips I'm Neil Zurcher NewsCenter 8 [Music] [Applause] [Music] time to get up but it's an odd experience to sleep on the water in a houseboat my son Craig and I had the feeling while cruising the huge lake at Salt Fork State Park that we were all alone quiet only broken by the buzz of our motor and the slap of water against our bow it doesn't take much knowledge to operate a houseboat if you can drive a car you can probably handle this just remember it has no brakes doesn't move as fast as some of the other boats on the lake with its shallow draught the houseboat can pull up to the shore just about anywhere in the lake a nice feature when you find a secluded Cove and want to do some practicing where your only critics are the fish [Applause] [Music] in case you're wondering while you're cruising the lake what happens if the motor stalls and won't start not to worry says marina officials there is adequate safety equipment on board as well as distress signals we have 3000 acres of Lake here so you've got quite a ways to go and you can you can really explore a lot but there's really nowhere that you can go that you're isolated so much that somebody wouldn't see you and when you camp on a houseboat you don't have to walk to the lake to fish the lake is right at your front door perfect for an afternoon of fishing or in my case an afternoon of unsealing a bulky fishing reel it's always a good idea to bring along some other food just in case the fish aren't biting the houseboat has a complete kitchen all you have to bring along as your food and the utensils to cook with you'll also have to furnish your own bedding but there's lots of room to sleep the table that turns into a bed for two it has a couch which is very comfortable in the daytime and then turns into a bed in the evening and we had a set of bunk beds if you think houseboat camping is for you be prepared to spend about $100 a day for a weeks rental and a bit more if you want it for only a three-day period the shortest time that they rent it in the summer time if you'd like to try some other types of boats while you're here Rita also rents all kinds of watercraft like these sporty wave runners or you can take a narrated tour of the lake on this large party boat or paddle around in one of these little pedal boats where you supply the power in our next report Craig and I move into a rustic cabin and try to find some ways of beating cabin fever as we continue to learn about camping out on a special series of one tank trips I'm Neil Zurcher NewsCenter 8 [Music] [Applause] Kevin's that you can camp out in come in all sizes and shapes my son Craig and I opted for this one with running water and electricity but no telephone radio or television by the first evening we noticed the stillness we found ourselves doing a lot of reading Craig got so bored he even began to read newspaper advertisements games we found helped pass the evening this is called five card draw poker don't tell your mother I taught you to play this okay the cabins are fairly big consisting of a living room kitchen two bedrooms and a bathroom with shower there is also a large screened-in porch perfect for a checker game on rainy days but it wasn't raining this morning and so Craig and I hiked over to the lodge and rented two bikes set out to discover some of the trails that surround Punderson State Park eventually we peddled over to the marina where for $15 we rented a motorized fishing boat for two hours and set out to discover whether the fish at Punderson were biting better than its salt for they weren't sometimes the best way to see some of our state parks is on foot they have some great views on this nature trail that winds along the lake here at Punderson it was on the way back to our cabin that we noticed all the activity next door and met one of our neighbors Richard Geisel of Dayton who was a veteran camper in both tents and cabins he says he likes cabins for one very important reason well you walk in the bathroom you can take a shower and a rustic camp yeah sponge off inside of the tent and you get what you can fifteen members of geysell's family had actually rented two cabins and we're holding a family reunion Geisel says of you're thinking of camping and bringing along youngsters there are some important things to pack you have two boxes you've been one is all adult case and Heather was all kids and we bring crayons and coloring things like this he also says modern cabins like these are excellent for beginning campers because they have just enough rustic charm to make you believe you're roughing it and enough conveniences to make the experience tolerable it's like getting away from the world a world that used to be if you think a cabin would be the way you'd like to camp out be prepared to pay from 310 to 380 dollars a week here at Punderson State Park other parks are lower and higher in price all the cabins come with running water bathrooms electricity dishes and bedding just bring your food and move in by the way some of the cabins at Punderson are equipped for handicapped access in our next report Craig and I leave the little metropolitan at home and hit the road in an RV to see what it's like to camp out with all the comforts of home just behind the steering wheel all part of our special series about camping on a one tank trip i'm neal Zurcher NewsCenter 8 [Music] [Applause] my son Craig and I are going camping today in an RV recreational vehicle that has everything including a kitchen sink Sandy's RV sales here in Lorraine is one of the few places you can still rent an RV whether you have experience camping or it's the very first time owner Paul Santa Ford says if you can drive a car you can handle an RV we walk them out to the unit we do a walk around the inside and outside which takes approximately 45 minutes explain everything there are pamphlets inside if they should forget we always tell them that if they ever stop and ask any fellow camper motorhome owner they're all basically the same and they'll give them the information they need I must admit as I pulled into traffic for the first time I was a bit apprehensive a remembering call Santa for his advice to use my side mirrors as a gauge wherever they fit the camper also fits I soon started gaining confidence as I started the trip towards Punderson State Park Craig particularly enjoyed the RV because of the space inside and the freedom to move around that had offered him on the hour-long trip arriving at the park it was just a matter of backing the RV into our campsite and simply plugging in the electrical outlet state campgrounds offer no water or sewage hookups so you must make do with what you have on board and that means reminding everyone on board to use water sparingly hey Craig are you down the shower yet are you done yeah all right come on you dry what do you want for breakfast while there is a gas stove in an oven in the RV I decided to cook outside to keep the dishwashing to a minimum in a campground like this you'll find rvs sitting next to all varieties of tents you'll discover what call Santa Ford said about other campers helping is very true a bulky refrigerator sent us visiting the next campsite and we met Robert and Mabel Johnson of Solon we've been camping for over 30 years they say everyone makes mistakes when they first start camping we've had we've had it on the tent and everything on top of the car and we didn't tie it down right and it's scattered all over the road they use an RV now and their advice to anyone else considering buying one is to decide how you're going to use it there the motor if it's if it's big enough so that it'll carry we're looking at 10,000 pounds here rent an RV it may cost you three four hundred dollars for a week but then you find out if you liked it or not and that was advice we heard over and over from other campers rent before you buy since RVs cost from tens of thousands to the hundreds of thousands of dollars Sandy's RVs where we got this unit the cost was three hundred ninety five dollars for the week plus sixteen cents a mile and you must also provide a rider on your auto insurance policy for the value of the camper and be ready to put down a $300 refundable deposit relatively speaking an inexpensive way to try an exciting way to see the country in our next report Craig and I pitch a tent as we get down to the real basics of camping out all part of a one tank trip I'm Neal Zurcher NewsCenter 8 [Music] Gregg I think we're on a hill if you're pretty inexperienced at camping like I am contending and your tent looks kind of like this one after you set it up well you might want to consider a couple of alternatives this is one alternative it's called run a camp and it can mainly be found in many state parks in Ohio and in at least one city park for a modest fee you get a complete campsite with a big tent all set up and ready to go all you have to do is bring along your food and blankets it's a painless way to see if you like camping without the big costs of buying things like a tent it's about 390 dollar tent so that's quite an investment for a family that maybe isn't sure they like camping so for Pink's our fee for the running camp which is 716 dollars a night they get the site and they get the rental of equipment but how do you know if you really would like to camp out for the answer to that one we won in search of some veteran tent campers people who think nothing of pitching a pup tent rain or shine and love every minute of it how do you know if you are ready to camp out that's safer use the metro parks for a picnic you know to try that you know family picnic type situation and just you know for a couple hours or a half a day or whatever and then see if they like the outdoors and then find from there Frank his wife and Friends of it backpacking and tent camping for years and say well it's the most inexpensive way to camp out there are other reasons the tent that feel is more closer than nature and more natural and that's that's a situation it's it's not as is materialistic real and you know they have a point there is something about the taste of a fresh cook steak and roasted corn done out of doors it takes on a flavor you can't find in your kitchen or a restaurant go to court and as night falls the building of the campfire is a special moment a time of marshmallows and simple traditions the sharing of some warm fun from one generation to another okay Craig to roost a good marshmallow you don't burn it you just get it nice and but whether it be that crackle of a campfire or the call of a cricket at night that you listen to from a tent cabin or Lodge there is a certain magic to a camping trip this has really been fun good night Craig a night yet and to all of you happy camping Neil Zurcher NewsCenter 8 [Music]

F0qFLpb2lE8 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0qFLpb2lE8 | How Generation Y will influence the Future of Organizations | thank you very much and maybe we should have asked who of you has Generation Y at home because I guess more view would have raised your hands now in order to speak about Generation Y I would like to invite you to look back together with me and these are my parents by the way they need me we did not talk before our talks about putting our family into the talks so this is pure coincidence now when my parents trying to work for us there was a simple deal between companies and their employees was their dedication and loyalty for lifelong employment work back then was means of regaining stability in building sound foundations for families work basically was the core of life and this by the way is the pond or foundation of a lot of companies a lot of things have changed till then the lifelong employment deal has been cancelled by the way from both sides companies have become more complex just like markets have become more complex but yet we live in wealthy and prosperous time so there's a lot more room for the individual and their wishes and needs and work today is part of life now this is my daughter in 2020 she will be 18 so a theory she'll be ready to join the workforce in reality I sometimes doubt that as a father but in theory she will be and the question is what will companies what will work in life be like them and this is what I would like to talk to you about one of the groups said to have the major influence on the future of organizations are the so-called Millennials also known as Generation Y now while they these are the individuals born between 1980 and roughly 2000 so they are 20 to 30 years old and by now either leaving schools or universities or making their first career steps in your organization they are well educated and absolutely technology savvy in order to understand the influence they might have on organizations we have to have a look at how they look at the world back when my parents trying to work working world there was more about the organization and achieving a greater goal now for Millennials for this generation it's more about individual and their achievements living a self-determined life is the ultimate value they have there were well brought up that your children children of the baby boomers and they have an inherent feeling of life deserving a good life so striving for them for good perfect life is exactly the aim as a set a absolute technology saving they have a understanding technology is here to help me they're perfect networkers and what's interesting is that does not only mean 500 Facebook friends as we heard but they're leveraging their networks to solve problems work and live there's no contradiction to them this is why I don't like the word world balance just as they expect to update their facebook status during working hours they're absolutely willing to check emails and reply on weekends a work hard and long on presentations in the evening in general they are very optimistic generation and that is interesting research told us that even among young unemployed people in southern Europe they remain optimistic about their personal future even though they're really in doubt about the future of their countries now how will this affect organizations in a couple of ways and I try to depict the three most important ones from my point of view one you will experience the end of loyalty in organizations motivation by making sense will become much more important I thought education will become a competitive factor let me expand on that what I mean with end of loyalty well this is a study an international study done by PricewaterhouseCoopers subsequent study in 2008 to 2011 among Millennials and they were asked how many employs do we expect to have we see a significant increase of the ones saying more than six and already a dramatic fall among those stating well two to five employed employers and this is where the demographic change comes into play then you have I mention it war for talent as the workforce becomes more scarce the competition among companies will dramatically increase for talent now that undermines the content of loyalty because switching jobs will become much more easy for employees enhance that is why you can't win we're waiting or we are seeing a shift in the labour market from a company driven market to a candidate driven market people will be able to easily switch jobs or choose the employer they most like just like we have that situation in some areas or segments already if we look at China it's similar if we look at apprenticeship in Germany it's a tough competition for the best apprentices and hence you move over to motivation by making sense because as the workforce is getting more scarce and loyalty is sinking retention of employees becomes more important now how do you do that with Generation Y leadership by command and control is a dinosaur that doesn't work and especially doesn't work with Generation Y because they were raised in a very participative way and they're as if you used to eye level discussions and I can only build on what Daniel Hager said with leadership leadership will become much more demanding in odds it almost becomes a democratic act where you have to justify your decisions Generation Y wants to understand the big picture they want to be included they want to understand their share their contribution in achieving the big picture they crave for constant feedback and I'm sure the ones that are direct managers of Generation Y will support me in that because they not only want to hear or they want to hear that they're doing a good job even if they are simply doing their job so the old German saying niche group is Guk looped which translates into well not complaint is of appreciation doesn't work with them they don't demand transparency in information I mean come on folks these kids grew up with Wikipedia and this is what they expect in the working world as well and last but not least they want to see sense in the tasks they're doing or in the ends of the company they want to buy into it then they are willing and ready and able to absolutely perform but they must see the sense educational when is my sincerest belief will become a competitive factor for you in business and here again I would like to remind you of demographic change if you have trouble filling your gaps in the workforce and this will increasingly so happen in 2010 we had the turning point in the European Union where more people retired than left schools we might not notice that at the moment but this will have a dramatic impact and this is no matter what scenario you're looking at this is not going to go away so that means that companies will need to draw in two segments they have not yet tapped into and even though we say Generation Y is well-educated there's about 20% that are not ready for employment market they are undereducated and companies will need to fill this gap and invest in the education to fill their gaps also you might draw to go to other countries or draw people from other countries to fill your gaps in your country and I heard this morning that the Hager Foundation has a very nice project with young unemployed people in Spain which i think is brilliant but each of you who has an expatriate on their team knows that having someone from another country requires a lot more onboarding training on-the-job explanation and this is nothing else but education and even if you hire in your country you would have to invest in the education of Generation Y because schools and universities have trouble keeping up with the pace of technological and market development that requires a lot more training on the job that's not the only reason there's one more I spoke about retention this is it said study from PwC again and asked about influencing factors for job choice person development by far beat all of the other factors so Generation Y expect expects personal develop and personal perspective education measures and that good news is is also means for you to retain them in your company so where does this leave us I think it all comes down to one thing and this is this is my sincere belief that successful companies in the future will become much more like much more flexible and let me show you some of the aspects working hours now I believe none of you is running on or none of you or companies as running on a 9 to 5 schedule only but it might be even more than that now there's a small chunk on a gem company here from the south of Germany near Stuttgart is called tumf the world market leader in sheet metal fabrication industrial lasers what they did a couple years ago they introduced working time model for the employees that allows their employees to choose F two years the total amount of weekly working hours from 15 to 40 for the next 24 months so they can choose and be flexible at their total working hours no matter whether it's a production or management you know what this has been very very successful against the doubts both of the management and the works council and that tells you something so flexibility in working time flexibility also in working place and now this is not possible for each job so speaking about production difficult but I believe that any desk related work does not necessarily require presence flexibility and tasks Generation Y wants diversification in order to learn new things also so adding up to their jobs project or extra tasks is another means of you could say keeping them entertained but it's also a way of educating them and retaining them same goes for career paths they're interested in cross functional moves cross border moves another very brilliant retention factor the time for one training fits all is over so education might believe we'll have to be much more tailored to the individual needs and demands of employees and it even expands down to benefits so financial benefits is one thing what we see first companies experimenting with time giving out extra vacation days time for instance something is much more prayer or precious to Gen Y than money but goes beyond that also again education companies supporting PhD you our MBAs or masters something you could also think of as a benefit I'm sure Hager has a car policy a company car policy no you do you know what and that is mostly true for companies in our areas we see the first car policies that include bicycles company bicycles so you might think about that I mean you could go into ebikes for at least and add some funky amendments from Haga to it so this is what I mean with flexibility you have to cater to much more different demands in a flexible way in order to retain your people so generation where I will influence your organization no matter what the only question is how are you going to change thank you very much | Recruiting Generation Y | UCBaDXm56mO4HBOUwLCOXYiA | 2015-09-15 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 1,949 |

GUh2XZLZiRA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUh2XZLZiRA | What High School Students and Undergraduates Should Know About Civil Engineering | if you're a high school student thinking about the profession of civil engineering or a college student either starting a civil engineering program or thinking about doing so or a parent of a child interested in civil engineering this video is for you in this video we are going to feature pieces of advice from practicing civil engineers explaining what civil engineering is and what opportunities the profession presents now and in the future and please be sure to subscribe to this playlist because beyond this video we're going to be visiting with civil engineers in their workplaces to show you what they actually do on the job let's do it the way this episode will run is simple I'm going to read through some advice and information on civil engineering for high school and college students interested in civil engineering and I will also add my own comments and advice where I feel they would provide value here's our first piece of advice from Joshua an engineering student and this is an obvious place to start he says for me right now my biggest challenge is I can't pay all the university fees which prevents me from studying at the university level so whether you're a student or a parent of a high school student start to think about the cost of a civil engineering degree as you'll hear as we go through this episode the value in civil engineering is that it's extremely diverse with different disciplines and types of work that you can do which makes it a very stable career however be sure to do your research on the cost of a civil engineering degree upfront next here's advice from Michael Fabiano vice-president of high point engineering civil engineering is a vast and varied field of work at the undergraduate level in my experience you are not taught what types of companies do what types of work and rarely is it the case that a student in college knows what type of civil engineering they will have a passion for my suggestion is to intern at different companies attend industry events seek out industry information interviews use your school resources to the fullest and start to build your network as early as possible more than likely you will start to eliminate those parts of the industry you know for sure you do not want to pursue and sooner rather than later the field of choice will emerge what I love about Michaels suggestion is that there are many different disciplines in civil engineering and often it is difficult for a recent graduate to see which one is the best place to start or which one they might be passionate about and this suggestion of interning at different companies and attending different events can certainly help you to make that decision process easier as I mentioned earlier we're planning to publish some videos on our YouTube channel where we visit with civil engineers in different sectors at their workplaces so be sure to subscribe to this playlist if it's something that's of interest you are recommended to others we also had comments from three or four other practicing engineers basically stating that interning is invaluable and that you need to experiment with interning at different companies in different situations early on in your career whether that be at the college level or even as a recent graduate next here's some more advice on the diversity of work in civil engineering from James Smith who is a project manager civil engineering is a very diverse field we do a lot more than bridges and buildings in the world of civil engineering there's something for everyone even in my graduating class in which we all took the same classes my friends and I all do surprisingly different work from bridges and buildings to roads and drainage airports and cityscapes Environmental Quality to oil and gas extraction and transmission and oh so much more civil engineering is supposedly the second oldest profession and is truly the grandparent of all engineering as such all engineering can trace their roots to the diverse field of civil engineering he also says civil engineering is about creative problem-solving no solution will work exactly for every scenario every problem is different and you have to a solution that meets your design requirements budgets customer needs wants and more it can be challenging but if you enjoy solving puzzles civil engineering is a rewarding field civil engineering more than any other profession gives you the opportunity to see your designs come to life this is probably my favorite part about civil engineering as opposed to other engineering fields the key takeaway from the advice here from James is that civil engineering often falls under a broad stereotype of bridges and buildings at least that's what I thought it was when I first heard about it and I know that many young students feel the same way so I really like that James does comment dispels that next here's advice from Ben to station principal engineer with MBK engineers civil engineering is a people serving profession that is what makes it both challenging and extremely rewarding at the same time to excel in the profession the development of strong technical and relational and communication soft skills is required a career as a civil engineer is fulfilling in that you can solve challenging technical problems while providing important products and services for the community in which you live I really love this advice from Ben for me personally this is exactly why I chose civil engineering because I wanted to work on projects that had an impact in the world and also I wanted to work on projects that I could see being built and this really was one of the key factors in my decision so I thank Ben for sharing this valuable advice now here's another piece of valuable advice from William Marinka a civil engineer practicing and land development one thing is that there are so many different areas that they can specialize in and focus their career on while being a civil engineer this may be one of the most diverse fields in terms of where your career can take you as a civil engineer the reason that this one piece of advice from William is so important in my opinion is because in the world we live in today that has a lot of variability it's important to create stability in one's career and since civil engineering is so varied and focuses really on a lot of the world's biggest challenges like traffic climate change lack of clean water failing infrastructure if you have a degree in civil engineering and you practice in one of these areas you can fairly easily transition into another area of civil engineering now you may have to do some learning of course but you have the basic education to do so and in my opinion in today's world that flexibility is critical to career success next here's a piece of advice from Jake Ali a graduate structural engineer in the UK related to the size of companies you work for universities in the UK put a huge emphasis on large-scale civil engineering companies however there are so many opportunities within smaller companies now I totally agree with Jake here and that there are just as many opportunities with smaller companies in civil engineering than there are with bigger companies and I wouldn't necessarily say more or less I would just say there are different types of opportunities for me I started my career with a civil engineering firm of about five people and it gave me the opportunity to learn everything about the profession however that small firm was eventually acquired by a larger firm which then gave me exposure to different opportunities so the bottom line here is that it isn't necessarily better to work at a larger or smaller civil engineering firm just know that there are positive opportunities in each situation and by talking with people that work in both small and large companies you can determine what those are next here's a thought from Bill levy senior engineering manager on teamwork in engineering in fact this is how he poses the question to students how many of you are on a team or like to play sports on teams civil engineering is the ultimate team activity I as a geotechnical engineer always work with other engineering specialties structural environmental mechanical electrical and so on we work as a team to successfully design and build projects just like your school thank you Bill this is so at the engineering management Institute one of our main offerings is people skills training for engineers and the reason we provide this training is because engineers need to interact with people on a very regular basis in order to achieve success with their projects in fact I often speak at engineering schools and many of the students tell me that they are becoming an engineer because they're not comfortable speaking or writing the first thing I say to them when I hear this is you may have chosen the wrong profession because speaking writing and communicating overall is critical in the engineering profession which involves so many teamwork activities next here's advice from Irfan Alvey president and chief engineer of Alvey associates and his advice is important because he has a daughter in high school my daughter is in high school and I found that high school students rarely know much about civil engineering high school students need to know that while they may think that interesting engineering mostly involves electronics robotics biotech and other high-tech items civil infrastructure has always been fundamental to the functioning of societies and it remains challenging and fascinating to work with water air soil rock timber asphalt and so on awesome stuff here from Irfan if you really think about civil engineering at the core it's about the earth it's about serving people and when you put those two things together it can make for a very rewarding career now here's some interesting advice from professional engineer Dave arena and this goes beyond just civil engineering but what it takes if you become a consultant as a civil engineer which many civil engineers do dave says being as though most engineers go into consulting at some point in their careers I think there are two main things high school students should know about civil engineering civil engineering consulting is a for-profit business and being a good consultant is a skill entirely of its own that most civil engineers take years to master the qualities of a good consultant are effectively and accurately tracks time keeps a planner and manages their effort across various projects prices their services conservatively enough based on projected time and materials drafts comprehensive yet succinct proposals in contract documents learns to under promise and over deliver is an effective communicator for example knows when to email verses went to pick up the phone and call someone there's much more but I think that these are the key basics I really like this comment from Dave because he has taken it to the next level while you heard a lot about civil engineering already in this episode in terms of what it is Dave again emphasizes the diversity of civil engineering here in that you might work for a government agency or you might be a private consultant working for a for-profit company which many civil engineers end up doing at some point in their careers and if you want to do that successfully you can follow some of Dave's advice next here's a specific plug for water and wastewater from John LeBaron the water and wastewater sector has become a high-tech rapidly growing secure industry that integrates the most exciting new developments from a range of disciplines including civil chemical and mechanical engineering biology material science systems engineering renewable energy AI IOT ecology management and more all in order to provide an invaluable service to society engineers working in our industry have huge opportunities for advancement consistent employment and we'll never be bored moreover our industry is working hard to meet new inclusion goals and is actively seeking and recruiting a diverse crop of new employees it's a great industry to join so there's a good plug for the water and wastewater industry however I'm sure that many of the things John mentioned are applicable to different disciplines of civil engineering you just have to do some research on the different areas in where you're considering practicing next here's a real important piece of advice from Rachel Conkel staff engineer with regards to master's degrees in engineering it's extremely valuable to get some work experience before getting a master's degree it helps you better understand topics covered in your master's program and it gives you perspective on what you're really going to be asked to do with the information this is also important because the work experience will show what the majority of your day will be spent doing there may be more writing CAD or field work than the engineering curriculum first pledge you to believe I totally agree with Rachel here and in my own career I went part-time for my master's in civil engineering while I was practicing civil engineering for a private consulting firm and it was extremely helpful that I was able to see how the concepts at school related to my day-to-day job I also think it's valuable advice because as you've heard already in this episode there are many different disciplines of civil engineering so if you seek a master's degree in a specific discipline of civil engineering before actually practicing that discipline and then come to find out that you prefer to switch into another discipline of engineering some of that time and money spent on that master's degree could have been directed elsewhere next we have some interesting advice related to the courses you take in school from civil engineer Stefan Barr it's all about fundamentals having a very strong foundation in subjects such as calculus and physics makes being an engineering major much easier unfortunately most college programs gloss over the first two years which doesn't set students up for success I'd even argue that the first two years as an engineering major will have a bigger impact on your success than your final two also most colleges don't do a good job of teaching AutoCAD to the point where engineers need to be ready for industry any civil engineering student should take part in as many projects involving this software as possible great advice here from Stephan and really I think the key takeaway here is the AutoCAD part of it whether it's AutoCAD for you or a new software that comes out being aware of the relevant software in the civil engineering world can be a huge advantage to you as a recent graduate because many of the experienced professionals won't have that knowledge and so that can definitely differentiate you and get you into a really good company early on in your career now before we wrap this one up we had some great advice that we listed here in this episode from different civil engineering professionals that are currently practicing however we also had several other civil engineers who mentioned communication so rather than walking through their comments I just want to talk a little bit about this in general as important as your technical skills are as a civil engineer you have to communicate with people whether that be other technical professionals or the public we mentioned this several times in this episode that civil engineering is a profession that serves the public and when you're out in public speaking with people you need to be able to communicate the benefits of your projects to the people so what does that mean for you as a student it means practice your speaking skills many high schools have public speaking clubs join a club and get up in front of an audience volunteer to speak in public anywhere that you can whether that means being a lecturer at your church or coaching younger kids in athletics however you can work on your communication skills work on them because they are critical component of civil engineering I hope you enjoyed this video if you did please like the video and subscribe to this playlist because we are in the process of working on some videos where we will follow civil engineers in different disciplines throughout their work days to show you what civil engineers actually do on the job until then keep engineering your own success I hope you enjoyed this episode of the civil engineering podcast on YouTube produced by the engineering management Institute we're always looking for new ways to help engineers become effective managers and leaders you can view all of our content on our website at engineering management

LQx9HIcjS4g | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQx9HIcjS4g | Mod-01 Lec-24 Nishkama Karma Part 1 | continuing with our talk about the theory of karma today we talk about nishkama karma as written on the screen with the diacritical marks the dot below s makes it assure and the line above a makes it a longer pronunciation of r of a as r so it is called nishkama karma now nishkam kerm is something that perhaps most of us have heard in our day-to-day talks if you have been raised in the indian cultural milieu and this is interesting both as an ethical theory and as a religious doctrine that uh how ah what is prevalent as as a means of belief ah as nishkama karma or as a religious doctrine is also very ah potent philosophical ethical theory ah which in a way also contrasts with what is the practice today now ah to many many people would read nishkama karma as having a fundamental conflict with what is the basis of the economic system today or the financial system today the very fact that our uh desireless or incentive less actions possible now ah perhaps the most preliminary understanding of nishkama karma would be that well actions are ah ought to be done without any incentives or detached actions or actions without any attachment and now contrast it with the current scenario that we are in perhaps most of us would be working for a living or would be ah doing something for a living and that something be it a profession be it entrepreneurship entrepreneurial venture may not be something that we enjoy from end to end we are perhaps doing it to attain something to attain our livelihood to attain our comfort to attain our luxury so the very fundamental backbone of the today's today's financial and economic world order seems to be that well every action should be incentivized whereas every action that needs to be discouraged should be punished now let us look at it this way i would like this to be as a contemporary introduction to the philosophy of nishkama karma that why do we have this notion of fines fines as in if you if you are late for a due payment you are asked to pay a fine and if you pay it on time sometimes you are given a 2 percent or a 5 percent discount on the next bill now what are these very elementary we come across this in various forms ah you buy in bulk you get some discount you buy in a staggered fashion you are made to pay a little extra you ah but you you pay ah in advance you are given some discount you pay in a staggered fashion you are charged something else now apart from the financial component of these or financial justification of these delays there are places where one simply is using incentives and punishments as a or incentives and fines as a means of moderating human behavior now any system ah any financial system any any any system or any corporation or any government or any collective that works would like to have some ah incentives to encourage the behavior it expects and some disincentives to discourage the behavior that it does not want we have prisons to put in people who have violated the law we have awards and glory for people who follow the expected behaviors right so these are very preliminary forms of a keratin stick policy you place a carrot for a behavior that you would like to take place and you punish with a stick when you do not want that behavior to happen now why is this this is fairly obvious this seems to be a very fundamental building block of the world order we are in today why am i talking about this well now to bring in with this contrast which we call which is called the nishkama karma nishkama karma is a notion that is explicated in the bhagavad-gita which is a part of the mahabharata and the bhagavad-gita consists of very dense philosophical doctrines it's a religious text also and it's a philosophical text too now ah extracting the philosophical component about this notion of nishkama karma which is a very ah dense philosophical and ethical notion ah discussed in bhagavad-gita which also draws its analogies in the western tradition to kant's notion of immanuel kant's notion of ethics of duty ethics of rigorism now nishkama karma on the other hand is saying that well incentives do not affect an action now wait doesn't that seem to be strange that ah actions which are detached with the consequences let us take a look at what ah nishkama karma would actually mean well nishkama karma would mean if you take a look at the screen it means actions done without any attachment that is without any conscious intention of achieving something without any conscious intention of achieving something i am grateful to kedarnath tiwari for the formulation of nishkama karma as written on the screen now without any attachment when we mean that there is no attachment or any conscience achieve intention of achieving something what does it mean does it mean goalless that there is no goal well ok let us look at it this way now when this doctrine of nishkama karma is claiming that well one should not be attached or nishkama karma is that which happens when one is detached with the fruits of the action and thereof in the action itself now this is a continuation of the karma theory because when we talked about the karma theory we also critiqued it as being retributives or retributivistic that is it was retributive that is whatever action i do i will get a result of that action either in this life or in the next life or it becomes my moral baggage which i need to carry and there is no loss of morality in the moral universe it is everything it is it is internally closed or complete ok now if this is the case with the theory of karma that every good action that you do yields results and every moral action that you do be it ah praiseworthy or condemned worthy yields its own result then are we not in an infinite loop or if of actions we are continuously spinning off into creating good actions or bad actions and that is all that the loop is up to well that is why nishkama karma is in continuation with the theory of karma that well that theory of karma is at a level when we have if you would remember the definition of karma that we talked about as actions that have ah originate out of desire for certain fruits so when i am acting let me give me an example when i am acting that ah i uh where say say i am distributing ah blankets to the poor in winter say i am acting with the desire that the poor stay happy or that shallower still that some credit comes to me and therefore i am distributing blankets among the downtrodden now this is an action which is tied up with a desire at a shallower level it is desire about my own gratification at a slightly deeper level its about seeing others happy so each of these action has a moral merit and i yield the fruit of this moral merit now what in contrast could be a nishkama karma that is actions which have transgressed the law of karma which are no more following the theory of karma because they have been liberated of attachment nish karma that is without kama kama meaning in this sense attachment or passion so without passion and without attachment the action done becomes nishkama karma and that does not accumulate moral merit or immoral moral merit either way so this is what is known as nishkama karma so let us look at some of the features of nishkama karma now the first thing we were talking about that is it goalless is nishkama karma meant by random actions because the first quality that we need to observe and perhaps find is that what do we mean by without any conscious intention or without any attachment so if we do not have an intention having no intention does it make the action random or goalless well the answer of course is no it does not make the action random or goalless look at it this way that when we are acting of course there is no goalless action possible the very whole notion of action and agency denote goal driven behavior right however when we talk about any sense of action or human agency we mean goal oriented behavior action or human agency they both determine goal oriented behavior now in the terms of bhagavad-gita the actions which are done without actions without raga or dwesha or without attachment are what is called as the called as nishkama karma there is simply it is nowhere claiming that there is no goal that there are goals or there is action and there is a goal to human action but that goal there is no attachment towards that call so that is fundamental about nishkama karma that we do have a goal it is not random behavior but there is a goal and that goal is however not not the source of attachment so when we are not attached to the fruits of action and we still perform action that would be called as a nishkama karma that doesn't have a moral merit that is transcended beyond moral merit because it is no more ah concerned whether with what is ah what result whether it is able to yield the intended result or not now ah let us say now this is a point where perhaps most of us would be a little or quite a bit skeptical that well what do you mean you mean that well i have a goal and i act towards the goal and i do not or do attain the goal and i am indifferent to the goal wait this doesn't seem to be working i why would i do something if i am not attached towards the consequence or the goal attained by that action now let us look at it this way first because many of us would perhaps find it psychologically impossible to act towards a goal about which we are not attached i mean if i am running a race and i do not ah i am not attached with winning why would i be running a race well lets try to get rid of the dominant world view today of action that every action has to be towards the cons towards the goal and towards the consequences about which the agent is passionately attached and that itself serves as the motivation for action there can be very very simple various examples say you are given ah you are a sales person and you are given a target to sell that you have to sell so many units ah in a month and if you sell so many units you get a reward and if you do not get ah if you are not able to sell the minimum number of units expected then you are given a certain disincentive now that seems fair enough that seems how the world works that well i am curious i am interested in what comes about and i am trying hard so that if i attain what i wish to attain i get the rewards i get the commission i get the running race price where is this possibility that i am acting without any attachment to the results of the action so why should i act after all if i am not anyway concerned with what is the result of action it is here that we need to take a step to the side stretch our imaginations and imagine of a time when this theory of nishkama karma was conceived that this was a time with a different world order and this world order can ah is still being practiced or can still be motivations for many number of people around the world now but it is not the dominant world order now but look at it this way now if you are taking a walk if you are running for without a concern whether you win or lose you are detached with the result first how is this possible how would you know that an action is ah an action originating out of nishkama karma first you would know that when someone acts or when an agent acts without getting the without being worried about what result the action leads to whether it is attained or not attained it does not matter that is a typical example of nishkama karma that the attainment or the failure of the intended goal does not affect does not affect the passions or does not affect the agent now yes that does seem um a little the triumph of winning and the and the sorrow of defeat are taken away and what else remains well according to this theory of doctrine of nisham karma of course a lot of it remains and a lot of what remains is that that level of human behavior and action which is beyond this characteristic policy that is something you would do because it is your duty to do so in the kantian perspective it is called duty ethics that well when doing something only for the sake of doing it that is not giving it a poor effort but not tying the effort with the consequence or not tying your passions with the action that you would do something and unless until the results yield it it doesn't matter so this is basically what nishkama karma is trying to say that if you look at the screen now it says renounce the fruit of the action well when we renounce the fruit of the action obvious question would come why and i would like to answer it by saying that well well renounced its not about me answering of course sorry but it is how the nishkama karma theory would say because well the fruit of action is beyond the agent's control so this is very significant term or significant claim that well why are we talking about to renounce the fruit of action now let us look at it this way when we talk about renouncing the fruit of action what is our motivation why should one renounce the fruit of action well that again brings upon the metaphysical claims that are tied up with the ethical theory of nishkama karma is that well who who is the one who does nishkama karma the one who has risen beyond the law of karma or the one who know more is attached to the action or the result of ah yielded by the action and why that person would then act well that person acts as a sense of duty and acts from a sense of duty and why does one renounce the fruit of action here is where the metaphysical influence of of of the bhagavad-gita in general can be understood when we talk about that well it is um the the gap or that between the fruit and the action which is hinted at that the fruit of the action does not necessarily follow from the action itself and that is what is meant by ah that is what is the reason why there is seems to be a gap between the action and the fruit of the action so as long as we understand or we take into note that the fruit of the action does not follow from our action then what does it follow from well of course definitely it follows from the in the karmic influence it all follows from the existence of god or the cosmic world order from which the fruits follow into fruits follow from the action so there is a gap between the fruits and the action and this requires ah further goes ahead to hint a surrender to the notion of god so nishkama karma says asks us to renounce our interest in the fruit because it finds a gap between the fruit and the action and that gap is influenced by cosmic world order or god or cosmos and therefore it asks us to surrender that we are only a part of the consequence that occurs we can do our action and not claim the results coming from this action so this in brief puts up what we mean by nishikama karma and why it says that the fruit of action is beyond the agent's control so you | nptelhrd | UC640y4UvDAlya_WOj5U4pfA | 2016-02-09 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata

U0TJf1e2vQE | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0TJf1e2vQE | TOP 8 TIPS IF YOU ARE TRAVELING TO LAS VEGAS | today I'm going to be going over my top eight tips if you're traveling to Las Vegas I've been to Vegas over 10 times and I've learned a lot of valuable information that today I'm going to be teaching you and as a bonus if you stick around to the end I'm also going to be sharing some delicious food recommendations so let's get right into it first let's talk about Transportation it is important that you always compare prices between Lyft and Uber especially if you're going to be doing 10 to 20 different rides through your entire trip it could add up to you saving a lot of money if you're going to Vegas don't expect to walk everywhere because everything is pretty far so you're most likely going to be using ride share services or you're going to rent out a car there's also something called the dece bus you download the ride RTC app where they also have stations throughout the strip you can get a day pass for as little as $8 and the nice part about the bus is it actually travels throughout the entire strip and it even takes you downtown there's obviously pros and cons to both right if you're doing Lyft and Uber you're probably going to pay a lot more on average to be safe I would factor in $20 a trip for Uber oryt but the nice part about using the ride share Services is they're a lot more convenient you can get them when you want them and in my opinion I just think it's more efficient but if you are in a budget the deuce bus also works the only downside is you do have to wait for it to actually stop especially if there's a lot of traffic I can imagine that it could take you 30 minutes to 45 minutes just to go from Fremont to the strip so in my opinion I like to do the ride share Services there is also mon so I think it's very important that you look into those and you also want to look into the trams so there's a lot of different trams that are actually free the monreal is going to be more budget friendly still time efficient not as expensive as Uber or lift so you want to consider that as well now another thing about transportation that I think is really important that you should know a lot of the times it's actually cheaper for you to get a taxi to your hotel from the airport so you want to consider that the reason why it's cheaper is because taxi cabs are obligated to charge you a flat fee now the next conversation I want to have with you is about convenience stores and shopping definitely want to be careful with the convenience stores inside the casinos everything is marked up I even Fallen victim to it you know paying $9 to $10 a water bottle so just know if you are going to be doing some shopping there you are most likely going to overpay instead check out the ABC Stores they have a ton of them throughout the city everything is a lot more affordable in here you can find cheap snacks drinks I've even seen have like souvenir shirts on sale or even better if you're driving a vehicle go to Walmart or Target there's actually even a Target on the Strip so if you want to walk to that one or get to that one maybe buy some groceries for the trip it'll save you a lot of money especially because food is probably one of the most expensive things in Vegas is it worth it in my opinion yes I overspend on food all the time but I love traveling to Vegas because of the food and like I said towards the end of the video I'll give you some of my top food recommendations moving along to the next tip tip is make your reservations in advance let me explain no matter what you're booking if it's an experience you know something fun to do a dinner make your reservations 30 days in advance the last thing you want to do is arrive on your trip and not be able to experience what you were planning to do just to give you an example during the week of F1 if you wanted to eat dinner or lunch at one of the Bellagio restaurants you know the restaurants with overlooking the fountains they're really gorgeous there was no chance you were getting a table if you didn't make your reservations that's how packed that place was so obviously it depends you know every week is going to be different but to be on the safe side make your reservations 30 days in advance because you never know how busy that week is going to be there's also certain experiences that sell out really really fast so for example the jigsaw escape room and the IT the clown escape room you definitely need to reserve probably even more than 30 days in advance maybe even 60 days to be safe moving over to the next tip cash is K you definitely want to bring some cash with you I'm not saying pay everything in cash because almost you know every place is going to take credit cards or debit cards but there is a few places that are only going to take cash very few of them but there is and there's also some places that will actually charge you fees for using a card another reason why you want to bring cash is because of the godamn ATM fees they are ridiculous on average for each transaction expect anywhere between a $10 fee to a $20 fee and some adult clubs you know not the nightclubs I'm not talking about normal nightclubs I'm talking about you know adult clubs if you know you know I've heard some of those can be as high as $90 a transaction insane another Pro tip is going into Target or CVS if you're going to be buying groceries or anything might as well ask for some cash back it's basically like your ATM for free I've also heard that the ATM on the third floor of the &m store was only charging like two bucks back in December If you're receiving value from this video so far do me a huge favor drop a like on the video and also drop a comment saying value it helps me out way more than what you think now let's get back into the video my next tip is dress comfortable what do I mean let me explain for example my wife and I we Uber everywhere and for some reason we still end up walking 20,000 steps a day I've even heard some people go up to 26,000 steps a day what's tricky is the casinos will look like they're close to each other but trust me they are not close sometimes it takes 15 20 30 minutes just to walk from one casino to the other because they are huge next up you want to plan for the weather personally I just think the weather is crazy everywhere it's obviously Mother Nature so it's unpredictable here's what I like to do for one I always like to look at how the weather was like last year around that time of the month definitely want to look at the weather at least one week beforehand and then pack your clothes based off of that and speaking about the weather for some reason when I'm there for 4 days or longer typically by like the third day or fourth day my lips get really chapped especially since I live in a town that is super humid so I'm not used to the dryness so maybe consider taking some chapstick with you moving along to the next tip probably one of my favorites the free stuff I don't really hear Too Many people talking about this but you can actually get free stuff from restaurants and the hotels for one if you go for your birthday or anniversary tell everybody you never know who's going to get you something for free especially restaurants restaurants like to hook you up with a free dessert most of the times I've also heard if you're doing like the big milestone numbers they could do something even a lot more special like 5 10 15 20 you know 50 stuff like that for example about four or five years ago I went to Vegas for my friend's 21st birthday I was checking in at the MGM Grand and there was a huge check-in line and my buddy it's his birthday he goes up to the management and says hey it's my birthday I was wondering if my buddy can skip the line and somehow he got me to skip the line so that was actually super cool moral of the story is you never know if you don't ask and also you got to take advantage of the free shows it's Vegas there is a ton of free shows the Circus Circus Casino has free circus acts throughout all day every day every couple hours they're doing something different and the nice part is it's free and familyfriendly just to name a few more you also have the free fall of Atlanta show I'll throw up the times that way you you can pause if you want to look at that you also have the big Elvis show at Hara obviously you also have the iconic basio water fountain show which is beautiful there's a ton of more free shows it's really hard to name all of them in just one video but if you're curious what those shows are let me know down below and I might make a video on that okay now for the next tip plan for fees I know I told you to take some cash even if you take cash there's still going to be fees it's inevitable let me explain for one instantly as soon as you get to the resort and you're checking in with the front desk you're most likely going to get hit with Resort fees this is a fee that almost every single Casino charges it can range anywhere between 40 bucks a day to 70 bucks a day and yes it's per day so it can add up especially if you're there for 7 days I'll tell you how you can actually avoid the resort fees here in a little bit it's a little complicated but I'll explain you also got a plan for hotel security deposits I'm not sure how much they can range up to but I do know at least you're looking at about $150 this is a deposit that will be given back to you after you leave so as long as the room is in good condition and the last thing about fees super super important do not touch the mini fridge or the snack bar 99% of The Times They are going to be weighed so even if you just move anything pick it up and put it down you will get build now here's the next tip sign up for the players reward programs every single Casino has one of these and they are free to sign up you just need a valid ID I'm pretty sure you could even do it even if you're not a US resident so the way this works to keep it simple the more money you spend at that casino property or gambling at that property the more points you will receive therefore you will also get some free stuff or comps which is basically kind of like discounts so basically what this does is you're basically signing up for this card it's not a debit card or a credit card it's just like a card that keeps track of your spending this is perfect if you're already a big Gambler obviously if you're not a gambler do not just get this card to gamble I do not recommend that if you go to a restaurant in that property make sure that you ask them if you can also use your card as well because they will track all that spending and the more spending you do the higher the level tier you go the higher the tier the better the perks the nice part about these perks is sometimes you'll receive room comps what that means is you're basically getting free nights to come back at the hotel a later time of the year but the catch is you still got to pay Resort fees but the way you avoid Resort fees typically you got to get to like the highest level and then at that point you don't even have to pay for Resort fees another tip that I think is super important if you do sign up for the rewards program make sure to do this if you felt like you spent a ton of money go to the front desk and ask them for a host speak to that host and ask him hey host I'm wondering if I spent enough money to be able to have my Resort fees waved obviously if you spent enough they're able to pull it all up and you might just get your Resort fees waved this next message is super important so hear me out with each video that I upload onto this YouTube Channel I am going to do my best to make it as valuable as possible and as informative as possible I am going to be uploading videos on everything there is to do in Las Vegas so if you are enjoying this video do me a huge favor and hit the Subscribe button with the Bell notification that way when I upload my next video you can be the first to know and don't think I forgot about the delicious food recommendations here's what I got for you so for one there's this awesome place next to the convention center it's called seagull Bagel Mania there's so much delicious food there I've tried a ton of it and it's all good but my personal favorite is the Hala french toast for one it's massive it's fluffy thick has a nice little crisp on the outside sweet bomb try it next there's this other place called Rock and potato it's kind of hidden there's this spot called a showcase food court next to the &m store and the Coca-Cola Store to the right you head up the ES escalators take a left and rock a potato is there some of my personal favorite dishes there right now are the bira tacos and the lobster roll I am like still dreaming about them I'm actually going on another trip and I'm excited to have them again next you also want to check out pink box Donuts The Establishment is super cool so it's all pink themed so that's really nice about it they have a flavorful array of scrumptious Donuts but my personal favorites are the Mr blueberry the Nutella D Crow and the the golden night you cannot go wrong with any of those three this next one is Off the Strip but totally worth a trip it's inside Chino's Mexican Kitchen my wife really loved their assada fries but my personal favorite was the Aztec Taco this thing was massive had a nice layer of cheese melted on the tortilla my mouth is literally watering thinking about it it was bomb that's it for today see you on the next video peace | Marco Murillo | UCEp_9UC8gqVvpVw4n2E1I2Q | 2024-04-05 | Creative Commons Attribution license

2zKnbrMr6BA | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zKnbrMr6BA | Q&A #54: Chanel Vanity, Chanel 19 Bag, Chanel Gabrielle, Lady Dior, Profession, etc | FashionablyAMY | hello my lovelies and welcome back to my channel my name is Amy if you're brand new here and as I said I have a lot more time now that I'm staying home more so I wanted to do another session of Q&A the first question is by Jenna than nine eight three wondering what you think about the vanity PM from Louie V don't I love the look of it I really do and I was so tempted I was this close to pre-ordering it but I knew that I will most likely get annoyed at the zipper of the bag because it goes around the bag although I did see a few unboxing videos that showed that was a lot smoother than their regular vanity from their poetry section so I know for a fact that the vanity PM handbag one is a lot smoother so that can definitely help but even then in general I just don't favor zipper bags just because unless it's a straight zipper where you can go for back and forth really easily just like my Gabrielle especially because you have to zipper pulls sometimes I feel like having to zipper pulls is actually more counter productive just because you have to pull it from both sides and you know pull it back from both sides to close it so that's one reason why I didn't pre-order it the other reason is because there is a little closet and then also the zipper pulls need to be centered in the front and the clochette really nicely kind of positioned in the front to look cute although it is an aesthetic issue it is something that I think about as well because when I'm out and about and I'm you know rushing through the cash registers and we're just running around wanting to get something in and out of my bag I will probably not take the time to Center my zipper pulls and fix the little clochette tag in front you know I will probably not do that third of all is the little top handle that top handle is really cute and I loved how they did it I love that they have the straps attached to both sides of the bag instead of the top of the bag but if you do put really heavy things in the bag even though it is a small bag you can so put heavier things inside and it is pretty roomy actually from what I can see it will kind of give that pull look on the top it's also a concern in the long term I just don't know if by pulling it not pulling it but by holding it from the top handle that it will end up pulling too much on the canvas and then I don't know what kind of wear and tear will create in the long term obviously those are all just my opinion and my sort of thought process on what I don't like about the bag I don't have the bag so I don't really know for sure but those are just things that I can think of that will annoy me and that's why I did not go ahead and order it because it is really cute I have to say I love the reverse mono I love the chain strap the details on it are really really cute and in fact my friend Gina hi she is still debating on whether she should get it like I always say in the past every single bag has pros and every single bag has cons if you can live with the cons of that particular bag then chances are you're going to be fine because it's not going to bother you tremendously then you're gonna like it you're gonna love it you're gonna use it but if those cons do bother you and you know that for a fact that they will annoy you in the long term then chances are you're gonna want to kind of not wear the bag as often in the long term and then maybe eventually you will like not wear it at all and that is what I want to avoid for myself so that's just my two cents hopefully it was helpful like I said it is really cute if you really love it go ahead and get it but if any of the cons that I mentioned will really really bother you like deep down really really bother you then I I would refrain from getting it just because yeah you don't want to have buyer's remorse the next question is by Stephanie it's the questions that I got from my IG story when I asked you guys what do you think of the small vanity with classic chain I'm assuming that you're talking about the Chanel one because if you're talking about the LV one I just told you exactly what I thought so I'm assuming you're talking about little tiny vanity ice LG from Chanel the new one where it zips around from the top and then there's a chain where you can wear a crossbody or on the shoulder it's a super cute vanity and there's two different sizes there's one that's tiny tiny tiny and then there's one that's more decent-sized I think it actually does fit a phone inside that one I really like I really like even though it is a zip around let me get to that I've seen a couple of videos on people you know unboxing it and also showing what fits and what I really like about that one is that even if you do open it all the way it doesn't fall off like I said it doesn't tip over and fall off or anything like that the price point is so good because you get the classic chain classic Chanel chain you get caviar leather you get the CC logo you get a beautiful burgundy interior if you get the black one of course you can also get the navy one which comes with a navy interior I think I've also seen other colors I don't remember where I saw it but I saw some that were pink I think I saw a blue one it's like so pretty it's very simple but the price point is so great that I feel that you cannot go wrong especially if it does fit a phone online it says that the dimension is six point six inches across and the iPhone the max iPhone at least the 10s max I believe it's six point two inches so technically it should fit in it especially if you have a very thin case so I really like it I do and I know that I may be contradicting myself because I just said earlier that I don't like the LV Guan it's not that I don't like it it's just that I won't get that one because I feel like with that one zipping around it and also with the top handle it's just not my I just foresee some issues at least with me using it I just won't like the way that that one behaves whereas the one from Chanel I actually don't mind it for some reason almost feels like it's a novelty purchase very similar to my round clutch like I said this is a lot of people don't like this because you cannot fit a phone in it but the way this one zips is really easy is so smooth and I actually figured out a way to close it really fast as well I just hold it by the bottom don't even try to like try to fit all around from the top just hold the bottom very lightly and then it will kind of do its thing pretty smoothly and so that's how I feel about the little vanity from Chanel just cuz you know it is a novelty item it's such a good price point for Chanel and at the end of the day I'm a Chanel lover so I do favor and I am a bit more biased when it comes to Chanel I almost like everything that Chanel makes you know except they're really out there ones but I almost like anything from Chanel and to be very honest I tried to get that little vanity but I think in Canada only Toronto ordered it Toronto flagship and I tried calling them and they only had ordered one I was told and there was already a client who paid for it and pre-ordered it a long time ago so the next question by J Hart's luxe what is your most practical Chanel bag I'm actually having a little hard time choosing just one because anyway I want to show you three I know I'm cheating because you're asking for one but let me talk about them anyway so I'm showing these two so my Chanel 19 my bucket bag as well as my gabriele so those are the three that I feel like are moment my most practical ones let me go through each of them because I feel like it may be different for you so I am someone who is a light packer I don't really need very much when I use my handbags I tend to carry very very little let's start with my smallest one this is the Gabrielle small size and the reason why I feel like this is one of my most practical bag is because once you have everything in it and because it stands up so well and the bottom is structured everything stands up so well they don't move around inside and the fact that it's a really easy zipper you just straight go down or straight up it's really easy to get in and out even my phone even though it doesn't have any exterior pocket my phone usually just slides in and I just usually put it on either side but usually the side that doesn't have this pocket so I just put it on the zipper side and it's so easier to get in and out of this it's so easy to get anything out and putting it back without having to play too much Tetris I just like it a lot and Plus this bag goes with almost everything it's a little bit more casual but not to the point where it's too casual so it pretty much works with all my outfit and whether I use the black one or the burgundy one I used my black one a lot more so I should have shown the black one but whether I use this color or the other color they just both work so well in terms of the functionality the the style definitely works for me I know it doesn't work for everybody because most people carry a lot more than I do but for me this bag is just fantastic it's just enough space inside that I don't feel like I need to downsize and I like that this bag is taller too because I can always put my sunglasses on top let's talk about the bucket bag I know that bucket bags are seasonal is the one that you have may not be exactly the same one but what I like about this one is that its caviar so it's super carefree I've worn this when it was raining it's perfectly fine I love the fact that it's a bigger bag so this will fit a bit more than the previous bag so it will you know I comment more on days that actually need to bring a few more things for example if I have certain appointments I have that ability to fit more inside I also love the fact that it has two different shoulder options I mean one shoulder option and one carry option and then so it's one of the best bags in my opinion things do get mixed up inside a little bit just because it's a little black hole it's not a terrible black hole you can always pull this down and really yank it open to see everything and grab whatever you need but I typically don't really adjust or readjust this I just leave it be kind of like this so I do work with a smaller opening in general and that can just be a little deterrent when it's really full and you're trying to find that one thing so it's still a great bag but it can get a little messy inside whereas with the Gabrielle it doesn't get messy at all everything is always in its right place because it's only it's so compact right and then whatever you stand up inside it will just stay in its place the reason why I wanted to show my 19 bag and in fact I have stuff inside because I was just using it the reason why I'm showing the 19 bag is because unlike the other two bags which is more structured this one is not structured so in terms of capacity this one is very similar to the bucket bag but what I like about this one is that once you open it everything is at a glance so no black holes very easy to get in and out of it I love the flat feature I always love a good flat bag I love this chain because you do that or you hold it by hand holding it by hand is one of my favorite ways it just looks super cool the shoulder strap I also did mention that I do use it once in a while but this part is still kind of new I suppose it hasn't molded to my shoulders yet so it does fall off when I'm wearing a big coat I imagine that when I'm wearing like I don't know maybe like a bear shoulder top or like a thin blazer that it would stay on better and especially if it starts molding to my shoulder a bit better than it will get better over time but I do like to having the option of a crossbody when I want to be hands-free but in general this bag is just fantastic and even though it is lambskin so this bag comes in two different well more than two but it usually comes in either lambskin or goat skin in terms of the leather mine is lambskin because the season where I got it is in lambskin this lambskin is super durable it's very I don't know if you can tell like you can barely tell from the camera it's very luxe it's very soft but it's treated in a way that it still preserves the softness of lambskin but it doesn't scratch as easily I'm not gonna do it I'm not gonna try it but it just doesn't scratch us easily I know it is not because I'm not super paranoid with it anymore I'm not I mean like I always say I take care of my bags and I'm careful when I use it but I don't have to baby it to the extent I thought I would have to if if it was a regular lambskin so I am a huge fan of the xix especially in the small size with the small size you won't have much sagging problem I'm not even using an organizer at the moment I only use the organizer when I store it actually that's not only but I I use the organizer when I feel like it and also when I store it basically but when I want to have all the space possible in this bag I don't use the organizer just because then you have way more space because the organizer still takes up space because I have the small size and then also it doesn't open up all the way out it has a bit of a inch of stitch on each side I don't quite use the back pocket as much because while my phone fits and while I can still use it I just use it for things to slip in really quickly it's all receipts right now I have this inside so I don't I don't quite use it as much in the back but it is a good sized pocket especially if you have the larger size but yeah parking stubs anything like that super handy to have a back pocket but otherwise I just used the main compartment it's such a pleasure to use this bag and with this leather because it is not a structured bag you can carry it this way you can bunch it up I truly feel that these three bags are my most practical Chanel bags and they each I use them in a different setting I suppose so the 19 I prefer using it when it's not raining because it's still lambskin I know that rain will dry off well because I've tried it it's fine but I just don't prefer it when it rains I like this one when it doesn't rain I like the Chanel 19 and when I really don't need a bigger bag because these are still for me kind of a size small to medium whereas the gabrielle is more like a mini so when I really don't need much then I prefer my Gabrielle and I should probably also mention that my minis are practical except that I know that minis are so constricting in terms of what they can fit that's why I didn't include it but otherwise the caviar minis are so practical as well tough choice I really can't choose like I said that's why I own all three and I can't choose sorry next question Chael zero three three zero which one would you pick the or 30 more thing or my ladies your when i chat with my friends i always said that between the your book totes small and the thirty mole thing i would choose the thirty mole thing but between the thirty mole thing and the lady do our i would choose the lady dr even though in general i never really wear any one bag every day in my collection cuz I rotate them all the time I still want to think of it in that scenario so when it comes to the my lady or even the lady Dior I feel like because they're not everyday bags I might I don't know it's so hard I might gravitate towards the thirty mole thing more just because that bag I mean I mean it's beautiful but it's also the fact that I feel like it can be an everyday bag and I love that the strap can be doubled so that if you want to go from day to night that you can do it I know you can do it with my lady do you are as well yeah I'm I'm completely conflicted probably confused you're even further but that's how I feel like until I see the combo it's gonna be hard for me to make a decision right now but if I were to based it on my collection the bag that will be the most differentiating would be the Lady Dior because I have nothing like the Lady Dior the Tamil thing is more similar to a lot of the bags I already own so perhaps I would go with the lady dear first whether it's my lady or the mini lady but um yeah I guess that's my answer I would most likely go with my lady view or more or first just because I don't have anything like that at the moment rights of beauty as a lover of mini bags what are your tips for carrying less my main tip is to carry what you absolutely need and to not carry what you don't need or may not need may not necessarily need so for instance what I must bring out all the time is my phone so that's number one if I'm going out by myself then I will need keys however if I go out with my husband then I won't bring my keys because we can have he can bring the keys so if I can eliminate my keys and that's like one like that's this much space that you can save right so it depends on the situation wallets you can downsize to something like this so I always just use a card holder now I have a full-sized wallet which I never even use if you really really really need to downsize I would just take out my driver's license and I would just take out my credit card if I really needed to downsize this much otherwise I'll just take my card case because it will have cash it will have my insurance it will have my credit card and my ID and really that's all you need you can buy really beautiful wallets with really beautiful material really intricate designs but they can be bulky and so if you can live with a card holder you're set especially with nowadays this day and age where everything is modernized you can pay with a debit card or a credit card you really really very seldomly need an actual full-size wallet so unless you're travelling in which case you may need actual cash and coins I would just be bringing that usually what I also need is a lip balm I always always bring and then I guess nowadays you want to bring hand sanitizer because you know why essentially that's all you need if you can fit this in a bag then you're okay that's how I downsize and that's how I end up not really needing bigger bags and that's why I end up buying mostly smaller bags and the fact that my Chanel 19 is already a bigger bag I still chose it in the smaller size because it will fit all this plus a bit more so let me show you what I have in there is that I don't always bring with me but I sometimes bring just cuz maybe I'm out and about a bit longer or if I'm going somewhere special and I want to just have it in case bag hanger is definitely one of them if I am only wearing a very mini size bag then I do not bring my bag hanger because I most likely don't need to hang it I could just put it on my lap when I sit down so this will come with me if I use a bigger bag such as my 19 or my bucket bag and I'll bring this another thing to save space is to instead of using actual pouches so instead of like your old case or your mini push it from LV I just used this these are just one of those like almost like gift things that you sometimes get with jewelry or whatever I just use this as my pouch so if you have little like tiny little things that you want to fit inside and you don't want it to float around your bag so I can put my bag hanger in it I used to bring floss so I can fit my floss in it you can put your lip product in it whatever else that's small you can just put it in the pouch like this these pouches take no space whatsoever and it's pretty flexible so you're saving a lot of space by not having an actual mini push it or a little old case from Chanel what else did I have in here okay so I have a coin purse I have my ear pods and I have some mints so these are non essential for me I bring them sometimes but they're non-essential air pod I only bring it if I feel like I need to wait around if I'm going to an appointment and I need to wait around and I'll bring air pods so that I can discreetly listen to a video or whatever or podcasts so I bring that sometimes not all the time coin purse I bring if I know that I need it for parking or for tipping I only bring it in those instances if I know that I don't need coins I do not bring it because these things are heavy sometimes and they can tick up pretty much a lot of while this one doesn't take up that much space but still anything that you add to it adds to it right so the more you eliminate the more you can downsize I like ginger mints and I still don't bring it all the time I bring it on like you know rope trips just in case I get you know rode sick or I don't know just when I feel like I need it I guess but I do not bring it all the time I only bring it on longer trips or like if I'm out and about the entire day then I will bring it but if I'm really only on about for a short period of time or if I'm just going out to get groceries you know these type of things then I don't I just pretty much downsize - I mean this is this is usually all I carry I do not bring makeup with me usually I either wear makeup or I don't wear makeup and if I already wore makeup then all I need is a lip product I don't really need anything else I don't really ever touch up my face especially nowadays you do not want to touch your face do you not touch your face Victoria over Chris I think that's really what is the best tote bag since you didn't mention for what occasion I'm just gonna assume you mean the best tote bag for everyday use so in my opinion the best haut can be none other than the never full and the medium size is pretty much the most universal one because it's not too big but it's not too small so this would be my best tote bag choice for everyday use so if I know that I'm gonna be running a lot of errands say if I go to the pharmacy and I have to go to like pick up something somewhere usually I bring my tote for those days because instead of asking for a bag everywhere I go I just throw it in my tote because with the pharmacy you can throw supplements prescriptions even when I buy skincare I just throw it in my bag so I love using my tote that way because it just fits everything and I don't need to have like a million different small bags plus the never full is still one of the more affordable bag from LV I mean they are really expensive now but they are still the most one of the most affordable bag and get a lot of bag for your money and they are very durable I've never really heard of anyone having major issues with the never full because they're just so well-made the straps even though they're thin they're very durable and yeah what can I say it's just one of the best totes that is why I recommend it but if you were to ask me the best tote for travel I will definitely say that it's the long haul totes mine is a limited edition that's why this is a coated canvas and it's waterproof as well so this bag is one of the greatest travel bag because it's super light right now I have an organizer inside and I still have a few things from my trip to Seattle the other week but it's just one of the best bag because this fits right on top of your carry-on if you're traveling internationally but you can also just bring it on a weekend trip and just throw everything in there they are relatively inexpensive you know one of those simple most basic look liege will cost you under 200 I believe and if you go for a more limited edition one it's you know a bit more but they look a bit more different than the rest of them which is you know either way you cannot go wrong with the with the long haul and because with the long Shaun you get the zipper you get extra security for travel that's why I feel like if you are gonna travel and plus when you travel the last thing you want to think about is someone getting inside your bag or you know sometimes when you're really tired the last thing you want to think about is trying to baby your bag let's say if I were to carry the visera one I don't want to get it dirty from you no liquids and drinks and even if I were to use my one that has the coated leather I still don't want to scuff the body of the bag so like I travel with this but only on like short trips maybe and then maybe like road trips I will travel with this but seriously in terms of travel best tote is none other than the law so in my opinion last question is by babe Lisa what do you do for a living so I already mentioned already answered that question in the past so perhaps you didn't see that basically I work in the IT industry in the past I was in consulting I was also a software engineer at one point I was also a quality assurance I was what else did I do I don't remember project management was the latest I did study computer science I graduated with a bachelor's a bachelor's of computer science why am I getting tongue to this but yeah that's it I it's not that interesting I don't even know well I know and I don't know I I guess back then when I chose to study computer science I just didn't know what I wanted to do so I just chose something I wasn't interested in like Applied Sciences I was not interested in you know health science I was not I was kind of interested in commerce and business but not to the point where I feel like to make a career out of it so I really did not know what I wanted to do and I loved fashion but I was also too logical to get into fashion school just because I knew that I was capable of studying like you know the the more mainstream subjects I don't know I don't know how does it move I don't know how to word it properly I've I you know what I thought really hard and long about getting into fashion school or even like interior design school back then because I think I'm more creative but I'm also technical so it's it's hard to explain and so I think my parents were against that they were not forcing me to not do it I guess but they were also not happy about it so and I I guess I'm also a bit logical myself I knew that I wanted to make a living out of whatever I studied and also I wanted to be independent I was already independent back then so I wanted to continue to be independent so I chose computer science there was really no other explanation other than I knew that computer technology is what was going on back then and it's still going on right now like it's due to high technology and due to advances in technology that things are getting so you know accessible globalization availability of information I just knew that it was an industry that was booming thank you so much for asking them again I welcome you to suggest you know different other video topics that you want me to film because I definitely have a little bit more time than usual since I'm staying home a lot now and I work from home so feel free to suggest any other things that you want to request or want me to talk about if you're brand new to my channel please do not forget to subscribe I hope that you got value out of this video if you did please give me a thumbs up comment down below to say hi and I'll talk to you guys again all very soon bye [Music] | FashionablyAMY |

nsKazxRyAb0 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsKazxRyAb0 | Christianity and science | Wikipedia audio article | most sources of knowledge available to early Christians were connected to pagan worldviews there were various opinions on how Christianity should regard pagan learning which included its ideas about nature for instance among early Christian teachers Tertullian see 160 to 220 held a generally negative opinion of Greek philosophy while Oregon see 185 to 254 regarded it much more favorably and required his students to read nearly every work available to them historically Christianity has often been a patron of Sciences it has been prolific in the foundation of schools universities and hospitals and many clergy have been active in the sciences historians of science such as pierre duhem credit medieval Catholic mathematicians and philosophers such as John Baird on Nicole Hawes me and Roger Bacon as the founders of modern science deulim concluded that the mechanics and physics of which modern times are justifiably proud to proceed by an uninterrupted series of scarcely perceptible improvements from doctrines professed in the heart of the medieval schools topic overview earlier attempts at reconciliation of Christianity with Newtonian mechanics appear quite different from later attempts at reconciliation with the newer scientific ideas of evolution or relativity many early interpretations of evolution polarized themselves around a struggle for existence these ideas were significantly countered by later findings of universal patterns of biological cooperation according to John Hapgood all man really knows here is that the universe seems to be a mix of good and evil beauty and pain and that suffering may somehow be part of the process of creation how good holds that Christians should not be surprised that suffering may be used creatively by God given their faith in the symbol of the Cross Robert John Russell has examined consonance and dissonance between modern physics evolutionary biology and Christian theology Christian philosophers are gusting of Hippo 354 to 430 and Thomas Aquinas held that scriptures can have multiple interpretations on certain areas where the matters were far beyond their reach therefore one should leave room for future findings to shed light on the meanings the handmaiden tradition which saw secular studies of the universe is a very important and helpful part of arriving at a better understanding of Scripture was adopted throughout Christian history from early on also the sense that God created the world as a self operating system is what motivated many Christians throughout the Middle Ages to investigate nature modern historians of science such as Jo Heil Braun Alastair Cameron crumby David Lindberg Edward grant Thomas goldstein and Ted Davis have reviewed the popular notion that medieval Christianity was a negative influence in the development of civilization and science in their views not only did the monks save and cultivate the remnants of ancient civilization during the barbarian invasions but the medieval church promoted learning and science through its sponsorship of many universities which under its leadership grew rapidly in Europe in the eleventh and twelfth centuries st. Thomas Aquinas the church's model theologian not only argued that reason is in harmony with faith he even recognized that reason can contribute to understanding Revelation and so encouraged intellectual development he was not unlike other medieval theologians who sought out reason in the effort to defend his faith some of today's scholars such as Stan Lee Jackie have claimed that Christianity with its particular worldview was a crucial factor for the emergence of modern science David C Lindberg stay that the widespread popular belief that the Middle Ages was a time of ignorance and superstition due to the Christian churches our caricature according to Lindbergh while there are some portions of the classical tradition which suggests this view these were exceptional cases it was common to tolerate and encourage critical thinking about the nature of the world the relation between Christianity and sciences complex and cannot be simplified to either harmony or conflict according to Lindbergh Lindbergh reports that the late medieval scholar rarely experienced the coercive power of the church and would have regarded himself as free particularly in the natural sciences to follow reason and observation wherever they led there was no warfare between science and the church ted peters in encyclopedia of religion writes that although there is some truth in there Galileo's condemnation story but through exaggerations it has now become a modern myth perpetuated by those wishing to see warfare between science and religion who were allegedly persecuted by an atavistic and Dogma bound ecclesiastical authority in 1992 the Catholic Church's seeming vindication of Galileo attracted much comment in the media a degree of Concord between science and religion can be seen in religious belief in empirical science the belief that God created the world and therefore humans can lead to the view that he arranged for humans to know the world this is underwritten by the doctrine of imago Dei in the words of Thomas Aquinas since human beings are said to be in the image of God in virtue of their having a nature that includes an intellect such a nature is most in the image of God in virtue of being most able to imitate God during the Enlightenment a period characterized by dramatic revolutions in science and the rise of Protestant challenges to the authority of the Catholic Church via individual liberty the authority of Christian scriptures became strongly challenged as science advanced acceptance of a literal version of the Bible became increasingly untenable and some in that period presented ways of interpreting Scripture according to its Spirit on its authority and truth topic individual scientists beliefs many well-known historical figures who influenced Western science considered themselves Christians such as Copernicus Galileo Kepler Newton and Boyle Isaac Newton for example believed that gravity caused the planets to revolve about the Sun and credited God with the design in the concluding general Scullion to the philosophy I naturalist principia mathematica he wrote this most beautiful system of the Sun planets and comets could only proceed from the counsel and dominion of an intelligent and powerful being other famous founders of science who adhered to Christian beliefs include Galileo Johannes Kepler and Blaise Pascal according to one hundred years of Nobel Prizes a review of Nobel Prizes award between 1901 and 2000 reveals that 65 point four percent of Nobel Prizes laureates have identified Christianity in its various forms as their religious preference overall Christians have won a total of 72 point five percent in chemistry between 1901 and 2060 five point three percent in physics 62 percent in medicine 54 percent in economics topic perspectives on evolution in recent history the theory of evolution has been at the center of controversy between Christianity and science largely in America Christians who accept a literal interpretation of the biblical account of creation find incompatibility between Darwinian evolution and their interpretation of the Christian faith creation science or scientific creationism is a branch of creationism that attempts to provide scientific support for the Genesis creation narrative in the book of Genesis and attempts to disprove generally accepted scientific facts theories and scientific paradigms about the geological history of earth cosmology the chemical origins of life and biological evolution it began in the 1960s as a fundamentalist Christian effort in the United States to prove biblical inerrancy and falsify the scientific evidence for evolution it has since developed a sizable religious following in the United States with creation Science Ministries branching worldwide in 1925 the state of Tennessee passed the butler Act which prohibited the teaching of the theory of evolution in all schools in the state later that year a similar law was passed in Mississippi and likewise Arkansas in 1927 in 1968 these anti monkey laws were struck down by the Supreme Court of the United States as unconstitutional because they established a religious doctrine violating both the 1st and 4th amendments to the Constitution most scientists have rejected creation science for several reasons including that its claims do not refer to natural causes and cannot be tested in 1987 the United States Supreme Court ruled that creationism is religion not science and cannot be advocated in public school classrooms theistic evolution is a discipline that accepts the current scientific understanding of the age of the earth in the theory of evolution it includes a range of beliefs including views described as evolutionary creationism which accepts most findings of modern science but also upholds classical religious understandings of God and creation in Christian context topic reconciliation in Britain in the early 20th century in reconciling science and religion the debate in early 20th century Britain historian of biology Peter J bowler argues that in contrast to the conflicts between science and religion in the u.s. in the 1920s most famously the Scopes trial during this period Great Britain experienced a concerted effort at reconciliation championed by intellectually conservative scientists supported by liberal theologians but opposed by younger scientists and secularists and conservative Christians these attempts at reconciliation fell apart in the 1930s due to increased social tensions moves towards neo-orthodoxy ology and the acceptance of the modern evolutionary synthesis in the 20th century several ecumenical organizations promoting a harmony between science and Christianity were founded most notably the American scientific affiliation the BioLogos foundation Christians in science the Society of ordained scientists and the Veritas forum topic Catholicism while refined and clarified over the centuries the Catholic position on the relationship between science and religion is one of harmony and has maintained the teaching of natural law as set forth by Thomas Aquinas for example regarding scientific studies such as that of evolution the church's unofficial position is an example of theistic evolution stating that faith and scientific findings regarding human evolution are not in conflict though humans are regarded as a special creation and that the existence of God is required to explain both mono Genizah mand the spiritual component of human origins Catholic schools have included all manners of scientific study in their curriculum for many centuries Galileo once stated the intention of the Holy Spirit is to teach us how to go to heaven not how the heavens go in 1981 John Paul the second then Pope of the Catholic Church spoke of the relationship this way the Bible itself speaks to us of the origin of the universe and its makeup not in order to provide us with a scientific treatise but in order to state the correct relationships of man with God and with the universe Sacred Scripture wishes simply to declare that the world was created by God and in order to teach this truth that expresses itself in the terms of the cosmology in use at the time of the writer the influence of the church on Western Letters and learning has been formidable the ancient texts of the Bible have deeply influenced Western art literature and culture for centuries following the collapse of the Western Roman Empire small monastic communities were practically the only outposts of literacy in Western Europe in time the Cathedral schools developed into Europe's earliest universities and the church has established thousands of primary secondary and tertiary institutions throughout the world in the century since the church in clergymen have also soared at different times to censor texts and scholars thus different schools of opinion exist as to the role and influence of the church in relation to Western letters and learning one view first propounded by enlightenment philosophers asserts that the church's doctrines are entirely superstitious and have hindered the progress of civilization communist states have made similar arguments in their education in order to inculcate a negative view of Catholicism and religion in general in their citizens the most famous incidents site by such critics and narratives of the church in relation to Copernicus Galileo Galilee and Johannes Kepler in opposition to this view some historians of science including non Catholics such as jl heilbron AC crombie David Lindberg Edward grant Thomas Goldstein and Ted Davis have argued that the church had a significant positive influence on the development of Western civilization they hold that not only did monks save and cultivate the remnants of ancient civilization during the barbarian invasions but that the church promoted learning and science through its sponsorship of many universities which under its leadership grew rapidly in Europe in the eleventh and twelfth centuries st. Thomas Aquinas the church's model theologian argued that reason is in harmony with faith and that reason can contribute to a deeper understanding of Revelation and so encouraged intellectual development the church's priest scientists many of whom were Jesuits have been among the leading lights in astronomy genetics geomagnetism meteorology seismology and solar physics becoming some of the fathers of these sciences examples include important churchmen such as the Augustinian abbot gregor mendel pioneer in the study of genetics Roger Bacon a Franciscan friar who was one of the early advocates of the scientific method and Belgian priest George Lemaitre the first to propose the Big Bang Theory other notable priests scientists have included Albertus Magnus Robert Gross test Nicholas steno Francesco Grimaldi Giambattista Ricci Olli Roger Boscovich and Athanasius Kircher even more numerous at Catholic lady involved in science Henry Becker all who discovered radioactivity Galvani Volta ampere Marconi pioneers in electricity and telecommunications Lavoisier father of modern chemistry Vesalius founder of modern human anatomy and Koshi one of the mathematicians who laid the rigorous foundations of calculus throughout history many Catholic clerics have made significant contributions to science these cleric Scientists include nikolaos Copernicus Gregor Mendel George Lemaitre Albertus Magnus Roger Bacon Pierre Gassendi Roger Joseph Boscovich Marin Mersenne Bernhard Bolzano Francesco Maria Grimaldi Nicole was me Jean Buridan Robert gross test Christopher Clavius Nicholas steno Athanasius Kircher Giovanni Battista Ricci Olli William of Occam and others the Catholic Church has also produced scientists and mathematicians topic jesuits in science the Jesuits have made numerous significant contributions to the development of science for example the Jesuits have dedicated significant study to earthquakes and seismology has been described as the Jesuit science the Jesuits have been described as the single most important contributor to experimental physics in the 17th century according to Jonathan Wright in his book God's soldiers by the 18th century the Jesuits had contributed to the development of pendulum clocks pantographs barometers reflecting telescopes and microscopes to scientific fields as various as magnetism optics and electricity they observed in some cases before anyone else the colored bands on Jupiter's surface the andromeda nebula and Saturn's rings they theorized about the circulation of the blood independently of harvey the theoretical possibility of flight the way the moon affected the tides and the wave-like nature of light the Jesuit China missions of the 16th and 17th centuries introduced Western science and astronomy then undergoing its own revolution to China one modern historian writes that in late Ming courts the Jesuits were regarded as impressive especially for their knowledge of astronomy calendar making mathematics hydraulics and geography the Society of Jesus introduced according to Thomas Woods a substantial body of scientific knowledge in a vast array of mental tools for understanding the physical universe including the Euclidian geometry that made planetary motion comprehensible another expert quoted by Woods said the Scientific Revolution brought by the Jesuits coincided with a time when science was at a very low level in China topic influence of a biblical worldview on early modern science according to Andrew Dixon White's a history of the warfare of science with theology increasing them from the 19th century a biblical worldview affected negatively the progress of science through time Dickinson also argues that immediately following the Reformation matters were even worse the interpretations of Scripture by Luther and Calvin became as sacred to their followers as the scripture itself for instance when Georg Callixtus ventured in interpreting the Psalms to question the accepted belief that the Ward is above the heavens were contained in a vast receptacle upheld by a solid vault he was bitterly denounced as heretical today much of the scholarship in which the conflict thesis was originally based is considered to be inaccurate for instance the claim that early Christians rejected scientific findings by the greco-roman z' is false since the handmaiden view of secular studies was seen to shed light on theology this view was widely adapted throughout the early medieval period and afterwards by theologians such as Augustine and ultimately resulted in fostering interest in knowledge about nature through time also the claim that people of the Middle Ages widely believed that the earth was flat was first propagated in the same period that originated the conflict thesis and is still very common in popular culture modern scholars regard this claim is mistaken as the contemporary historians of science David C Lindberg and Ronald L numbers right there was scarcely a Christian scholar of the Middle Ages who did not acknowledge Earth's sphericity and even though it's approximate circumference from the fall of Rome to the time of Columbus all major scholars and many vernacular writers interested in the physical shape of the earth held a spherical view with the exception of lactantius & Kosmos H Flores Cohen argued for a biblical Protestant but not excluding Catholicism influence on the early development of modern science he presented Dutch historian our hua caste argument that a biblical worldview holds all the necessary antidotes for the hubris of Greek rationalism a respect for manual labor leading to more experimentation and empiricism and a supreme God that left nature and opened to emulation and manipulation it supports the idea early modern science rose due to a combination of Greek and biblical thought Oxford historian Peter Harrison is another who has argued that a biblical worldview was significant for the development of modern science Harrison contends that Protestant approaches to the book of Scripture had significant if largely unintended quinces for the interpretation of the book of nature Harrison has also suggested that literal readings of the Genesis narratives of the creation and fall motivated and legitimated scientific activity in 17th century England for many of its 17th century practitioners science was imagined to be a means of restoring a human dominion over nature that had been lost as a consequence of the fall historian and professor of religion Eugene M clarin holds that a belief in divine creation was central to an emergence of science in 17th century England the philosopher Michael foster has published analytical philosophy connecting Christian doctrines of creation with empiricism historian William B Ashworth has argued against the historical notion of distinctive mindsets in the idea of Catholic and Protestant sciences historians James R Jacob and Margaret C Jacob have argued for a linkage between 17th century Anglican intellectual transformations and influential English scientists eg Robert Boyle and Isaac Newton John Dylan Berger and Christopher because er have written theological surveys which also cover additional interactions occurring in the 18th 19th and 20th centuries philosopher of religion Richard Jones has written a philosophical critique of the dependency thesis which assumes that modern science emerged from Christian sources and doctrines though he acknowledges that modern science emerged in a religious framework that Christianity greatly elevated the importance of science by sanctioning and religiously legitimizing it in medieval period and that Christianity created a favorable social context for it to grow he argues that direct Christian beliefs or doctrines were not primary source of scientific pursuits by natural philosophers nor was Christianity in and of itself exclusively or directly necessary in developing or practicing modern science oxford university historian and theologian John Headley Brook wrote that when natural philosophers referred to laws of nature they were not glibly choosing that metaphor laws were the result of legislation by an intelligent deity thus the philosopher Rene Descartes 1596 to 1650 insisted that he was discovering the laws that God has put into nature later Newton would declare that the regulation of the solar system presupposed the council and dominion of an intelligent and powerful being historian Ronald L Numbers stated that this thesis received a boost from mathematician and philosopher Alfred North Whitehead science in the modern world 1925 numbers has also argued despite the manifest shortcomings of the claim that Christianity gave birth to science most glaringly in ignores or minimizes the contributions of ancient Greeks and medieval Muslims it too refuses to succumb to the death it deserves quote the sociologist Rodney stark of Baylor University argued in contrast that Christian theology was essential for the rise of science topic Protestant influence on science Protestantism had an important influence on science according to the Merton thesis there was a positive correlation between the rise of Puritanism and Protestant Pietism on the one hand and early experimental science on the other the Merton thesis has two separate parts firstly it presents a theory that science changes due to an accumulation of observations and improvement in experimental techniques and methodology secondly it puts forward the argument that the popularity of science in 17th century England and the religious demography of the Royal Society English scientists of that time were predominantly Puritans or other Protestants can be explained by a correlation between Protestantism and the scientific values in his theory Robert K Merton focused on English Puritanism and German pietism as having been responsible for the development of the Scientific Revolution of the 17th and 18th centuries Merton explained that the connection between religious affiliation and interest in science was the result of a significant synergy between the ascetic Protestant values and those of modern science Protestant values encouraged scientific research by allowing science to study God's influence on the world and thus providing a religious justification for scientific research according of scientific elite Nobel laureates in the United States by Harriet Zuckerman a review of American Nobel Prizes winners awarded between 1901 and 1972 72 percent of American Nobel Prize laureates have identified from Protestant background overall Protestant have won a total of 84.2% of all the American Nobel prizes in chemistry 60% in medicine 58.6% in physics between 1901 and 1972 topic Quakers in science the religious Society of Friends commonly known as Quakers encourage some values which may have been conducive to encouraging scientific talents a theory suggested by David Hackett Fischer in his book Albion seed indicated early Quakers in the u.s. preferred practical study to the more traditional studies of Greek or Latin popular with the elite another theory suggests their avoidance of dogma or clergy gave them a greater flexibility in response to science despite those arguments a major factor is agreed to be that the Quakers were initially discouraged or forbidden to go to the major law or humanities schools in Britain due to the test act they also at times faced similar discriminations in the United States as many of the colonial universities had a Puritan or Anglican orientation this led them to attend godless institutions or forced them to rely on hands-on scientific experimentation rather than academia because of these issues it has been stated Quakers are better represented in science than most religions there are sources Pendle Hill Thomas mm and Encyclopedia Brittanica that indicate that for over two centuries they were over-represented in the Royal Society mention is made of this possibility in studies referenced in religiosity and intelligence and in a book by Arthur Ray's trick whether this is still accurate there have been several noteworthy members of this denomination in science the following names a few topic Eastern Christianity influence on science Christians particularly Nestorian Christians contributed to the Arab Islamic civilization during the Umayyad and the Abbasid period z' by translating works of Greek philosophers to Syriac and afterwards to Arabic during the fourth through the seventh centuries scholarly work in the Syriac and Greek languages was either newly initiated or carried on from the Hellenistic period centers of learning and of transmission of classical wisdom included colleges such as the school of nyssa bus and later the school of Edessa and the renowned Hospital and Medical Academy of jungler schipper libraries included the Library of Alexandria and the Imperial library of Constantinople other centers of translation and learning function that Merv Salonika Nishapur and CTE syphon situated just south of what later became Baghdad the House of Wisdom was a library translation Institute and Academy established in AB acid era Baghdad Iraq Nestorians played a prominent role in the formation of Arab culture with the jungle / school being prominent in the late sassanid Omar yet an earlier Basset periods notably eight generations of the Nestorian book shoe family served as private doctors two caliphs and Sultan's between the eighth and eleventh centuries topic criticism events in Christian Europe such as the Galileo affair associated with the Scientific Revolution and the age of enlightenment led scholars such as John William Draper to postulate a conflict thesis holding that religion and science have been in conflict methodologically factually and politically throughout history this thesis is held by several scientists such as Richard Dawkins Lawrence Krauss PZ Myers Jerry Coyne Steven Weinberg Peter Atkins Steven Pinker and Sean M Carroll while the conflict thesis remains popular in anti theistic circles it has lost favor

zwxaCPBXn90 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwxaCPBXn90 | EP13 When They Boycotted The Prophet ﷺ Story Of Muhammad ﷺ #SeerahSeries Dr Yasir Qadhi | foreign just astounding number one the bulk of the Muslims have fled to a foreign land number two two of the most promising men of their town have converted and so this caused them to really come together and think about what they would do and it is said that in the seventh year of the dawah all of the qurashi tribes came together and discussed what needed to be done until they agreed we need to kill Muhammad that's the only thing on their mind is to kill kill kill so for the final time they went to Abu Talib and they say to him that you do not have any choice in the matter either you will hand over Muhammad and we will give you whatever blood money and none of us is going to do the job it's not going to be a qurashi or we will have to cut you off from the quresh how are you going to cut us off we're blood relatives none of us will allow you to get any food and water we will boycott you no marriages and no money and no business transactions any of us who owns a business we're gonna tell him that he cannot buy and sell anything for you food water drink nothing and when the quraish came himself became Furious and he said do as you please I'm not going to hand my nephew over to you Abu Talib therefore decided that if we're not going to be able to buy and sell in Makkah we're gonna have any access to the shops of Makkah then let us go and live elsewhere and they moved to some of the valleys that the Banu Hashem owned and they were called The Valleys then left to live in that Valley and every single person from the Banu Hashim and the banana they voluntarily went into what is called the famous boycott and in order to solidify this the quraish came together and wrote a pact amongst themselves what is the Treaty nobody will buy and sell to the Banu Hashem nobody will marry into or from the Banu Hashem nobody will basically socialize with so it is a boycott of an economic a political a social level and they wrote a treaty and they hung it inside the Kaaba and of course nobody entered the capital so they locked the door and it was inside the Kaaba it is said that was the one who wrote this treaty and the processor made Dua against him and his hand became paralyzed until he died and so for two or three years they lived in this abandoned basically Valley eeking out in existence getting rain water eating from the Shrubbery and the leaves Bilal says that we began defecating like goats defecate droppings our droppings couldn't be told different from the goats and one of their main sources of food was that every few weeks somebody felt sympathy for them and would send in some secret supplies into the valley otherwise they eat down in existence it is said that when they try to go to the city even when foreigners came because foreigners are not under the boycott during Hajj season they're coming with supplies sometimes they try to sneak in some food sometimes they were successful other times if they were caught or the people saw them abujahan would come and say do not sell to these people I will pay you double whatever they're offering here even during these two three years the prophet saws continue to give dawa during the Hajj season he would go out of the valley and he would meet with the tribes during the head season and continue to try to find converts to the faith when did and how did the boycott stop as we said the book probably lasted two or three years and a number of incidents or happened that brought about its conclusion the first of these is that the prophet saws made a Dua against him and said oh Allah send upon them a famine like the Famine of Yusuf that bad and so the famine became so bad for the people of Makkah that they were forced to eat carcasses and to chew on dead animal skin they had nothing else left after that time and they realized this was because of the Dua of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam and they sent some Messengers to try to bring about some reconciliation the second incident is that some of the people of quraish whose Hearts were softer we already said this they decided that they should do something to break the pact and so the main one here was felt that he needed to do something so he called his friend zuheri bin ABI um and they said what can we do to bring about an end to this boycott so they said first thing we need to do is to bring about all of the people who are sympathetic get them together so they thought who can they invite and they invited number one under this let's bring him in other people three four five people whom they knew did not like the boycott and then they said what can we do what plan can we do so zuhay said I have a plan the next day they went to the camera and they all seated where they usually sit everyone goes to his place in this corner that corner that corner so Zoey stood up and he said for how long are we going to starve our own kids and kin to death Abuja had became Furious who do you think you are we all agreed to this treaty so when he said this Hisham stood up no I didn't agree you agreed this is your idea what do you mean is my idea we are we had a meeting here stood up no we didn't this was something you forced on that right I didn't force it on you we all agreed then the fourth one stood up right so one by one every single person planted strategically around the Nadi is basically publicly challenging Abuja and so abujah realized something is wrong people are just standing up one after the other and he said well this is a plan that all of you have hatched but of course they didn't confess to this and it seemed as if the public support had now shifted away and then the final thing happened that of course completely turned the time one day the prophet saws went to Abu tarib in the shop in the valley and he said that oh my uncle Allah has informed me that the treaty that they wrote has been eaten up by termites or ants except for the phrase bismik Allah just in the name of Allah the whole treaty now the Kaaba is locked up nobody goes in of course it is in a sealed pouch you know they have a parchment they seal it up it's in a cloth and everything said your lord has told you this he said yes he has told me this said I will stake my whole case on this he said yes take it on this for the first time since the enactment of the treaty marched back with a group of basically non-muslims of the Banu ashram and he said oh my people let's forget about everything let's just bring out this treaty and let's see if we can reach a negotiation and deal so they became happy that maybe you're gonna agree to hand over the processor so they took out the treaty from the and sit still in the capsule are still in the the cloth right and they put it here now Abu tariff said my nephew has informed me that his Lord has told him that the treaty is no longer in existence everything has been eaten except bismik Allah so my challenge to you is takes it all on his Iman and the prophet says I'm telling the truth my challenge to you is if that is the case then let us be and we'll return to Makkah and we'll ignore the whole incident basically and if it's not then I'll hand over him to you instantaneously do with him as you please so they said well of course I mean it seems obvious to them why would that possibly harm them and so they opened up the bag they opened up the cloth and lo and behold there was no treaty except for the phrase bismik Allahu and they were furiated they said this is of the sehra or magic that he's done but they couldn't do anything because the promise had been given and therefore this allowed them to return back to Makkah and this was what caused the treaty uh to be announced we learned that the prophet and the sahaba they return back to Makkah probably around the 10th year of the dawa when the prophet system was around 49 years old they finally returned to Makkah around two and a half to three years before the Hijra of the prophet sallallahu alaihi wasallam | The Learning Channel for Success |

you because probably from people from our generation we have especially those people who have been on the internet throughout their life because uh for you if you were part of discussion forums and those were very in things in early 2000's or late 90s uh that's where we got all our information from you're making me feel old yeah yes and the blocks were the best place to get so i remember visiting middle stage and knowing everything about literature because chandra has used to write that blog amit verma used to write another the same blog then he shifted to his uncut and those were like uh the the islands of you just wanted to go there and get maroon and get out of it and feel very good about it newsletter uh even then did not happen the way it is happening now and because for us it's like an easy transition we have it's like a blogging in a different form because giving links uh uh and remember like backlinks used to be so big if you would uh and then you would give a shout out to other bloggers and you would have a list of people who you should read and so on so forth but a lot of people like if you remember a lot of people who who were likely 10 years younger than me for the first time when they came to the net they only had google sheets to work on they only had a google presentations or email they haven't ever accessed native clients now the same thing is happening with the newsletter so uh we may also have to like i would ask you questions because these guys who who start a sub stack or who are going to start scroll stack for them it's not newsletter actually it's just like oh there is an audience there's a lot of uh influencers out there there's a lot of audience which i can influence with my writing and i just need to write um so the question number one which which uh and this is coming from a perspective of a very common layman person who wants to start who's interesting who's interested in the newsletter and then he wants to think oh what is the first thing which i should do uh how should i scout uh because you had you were reading politico and then these guys shifted to exiles and then so someone like you is always aware what you want to write and it's just a matter of like sitting quietly for 20 minutes and you exactly know what you have to do now imagine if someone who wants to go to scroll stock scroll stack or any other and wants to think of a topic an audience what is the first step which you would suggest in terms of picking the audience and then thinking of a newsletter what is the what is your what was your thinking process when you were doing political fix or daily fix or you uh subcontinental breakfast for that matter right um yeah so uh as to what you're saying earlier it it yeah for those who didn't grow up with the blogging world it it really uh i didn't expand on this enough but to me the real space of of both podcasting to some extent although podcasts are harder to build and harder to grow in a certain way but newsletters as well are a return to that form where it's a little more intimate you're speaking a little more directly to your reader than you are on by writing posts that go up on facebook or on the site um or twitter which which while a lot of people that we know on blogging basically moved to twitter it then became this really wild public space where you're not having engaging interesting conversations necessarily um but for those who are not familiar with that space who like you said came to the internet without seeing these these wonderful little bubbles of interesting information where we built community and we spoke back to each other that it really felt intimate i think that that is the word that i would suggest um yeah it can it can be hard to look at the internet now and say i can build a newsletter that that people will want to pay attention to um i think to the way it worked for me of course is a little different than it might be for someone who's not necessarily in the new space um but i think the the ingredients are the same do you think there is a tremendous need or interest in the thing that you would like to see for me it was like if if the political fix already existed somebody else was already doing it and in a way that was useful i would not have built it maybe i would have liked to write that sort of thing anyways but part of the reason for wanting to build it was because i didn't see it out there in the space and and i i was interested in that sort of thing and then of course this might be a bit hubristic or it might be narcissistic but i was like there are probably other people out there like me who also are interested in the same sort of thing so so the first question is would i read this right is that is there a compelling reason for me to put this product out and you know the medium you can find based on that it i could have decided to turn it into a podcast i could have turned it into a website itself or various other things as i said we tried the daily fix as an article rather than a newsletter so you find your medium but specifically with with newsletters is it would is this something you would read and can you think of a small community it doesn't have to be large that would be interested and then the third i think i would always say for that person who's thinking um about starting a newsletter she should think about what the objective is um is it that you know you just want to you you want a space for your writing i absolutely think the the newsletter space is uh sufficiently interesting right now and not so you know jump the shark like i said that that you wouldn't be able to find the small community um it's almost operating like early to mid blogging space at the moment though it's you know jokes are already starting to surface that everyone has a newsletter now but i think i think it's still possible that if you think that you would read it and that if you would read it there's a small other community and and you're clear on what you want out of it that either you want it's just a space for your writing or you actually want to promote something about your career your products if it's something to do with your business or you know journalism if you're clear in what it is that you expect out of it i would put a few of these things as the first questions that you should answer before attempting to get into the space great uh so when you started political fixings you also have the luxury of knowing your audience a little better than others because someone who is just starting out i i started with because when i started this earlier i would send newsletters for the brand because i ran a marketing digital marketing agency but when i started mine the first 10 people were my friends and first 50 people were the friends of friends whom i had asked knowing that they can and it was a street knife fight kind of thing hey do you want to read my newsletter i'll send you the link or i'll include you in the list that was what i you i did but coming because you were also at the same time uh it was it may also be difficult for you because you were accessing a huge number of audience so though it seems you see easy that hey rohan already has an audience so his newsletter will already become one of the most read newsletters but i'm sure that you would have diced the information looked at the audience how did you do it were there were their surveys or you get some kind of data done to look at the kind of subscribers or readers you have did scroll stacks tech help you in any sort of way so that would be interesting to know you don't have to like diverse exact numbers or something but how did you get to know the hangout how did you get the hang of the audience which you were wanting to reach out other than the assumption you had yeah uh a good question um no scroll stack was being and is developed completely separately to to scroll uh itself and so um i wasn't working with that at all to me like for example uh one of the one thing that i decided was that i would take a big subject that is popular for a certain amount of time so the elections last year as a test balloon right this is something that people are going to pay attention to and there's an opportunity to grab people's attention so so otherwise your your difficulty often is like you said you either have to force people to to to read something you have to really push hard to get them initially and then maybe that ball will start rolling but i thought instead of taking fully that chance why not take something big and do a pop-up newsletter essentially three months i know i'm doing this but if it's unsustainable and my assumptions are not panning out then you know we abandon it or we we change form accordingly so so one of it was was the idea that it's attached to something specific that gives people a reason to even check it out in the first place um i i had a google form out there pretty early initially just sent it to friends saying like what it is that you would like to do or to see in terms of election coverage what do you want us to do at scroll and initially it was not even newsletter specific it was like what kind of reporting as well what what kinds of things are you missing from your media diet um and and this was to friends initially then i put it on twitter and asked other people to spread it around sent it to a bunch of students i know because i do some recruiting for scroll and said okay what are you guys you know journalism students like you find few places based on that idea of like who's going to read this i know an audience i don't i i'm saying i got the new the survey out to 200 people not a huge number of people but even that is is as you see people starting to say the same sorts of things you get a sense of what they want um at the same time what i found very interesting is that of course people might say something and then what they actually do with the newsletter is very different so i was i had a very link heavy newsletter early on and i moved more and more to full consumption inside the inbox without having to click through the link even if i had a link in early on i would say oh read this great piece written by so-and-so writer from this place and i wouldn't say anything more about it towards the end of my process i started to realize people want that sense of completion within the inbox and so anytime i include a link now i try and describe what's within it so you might still want to click through but if you have only read the newsletter and haven't clicked through um you you still have a sense of what's going on um and that's something i got to know from actually paying attention to how people read because in surveys they would say we want lots of links we love them but actually the the way people were responding to um and then but when i when i moved to a very analysis heavy thing people are saying we're missing the links so what ultimately happened now with political fixes that's why i do a monday one which is analysis and a friday one leading into the weekend where people can collect a few more interesting links and click through to them over the weekend um but yeah so the process is very is is a lot of trial and error ultimately it's taking some assumptions maybe giving yourself a high percentage shot right like if i had not started around the the elections i would have had a harder time but elections are a great time or take any big event in that sense or something that you think will work and say even just the start of the year saying like i'm gonna start something new like uh it might be a way to get people to pay attention and more likely to get that little click even in answering a survey that could lead you to to better informed decisions about how to make something i think uh i i also actually emailing people and asking them i don't do too much and i don't know if other people might tell me what they think i don't i don't tend to email people when they unsubscribe because sometimes i find that a bit uh either creepy or a little you know and and my newsletters will i think for super intimate newsletters it makes sense doing that but uh people who do subscribe and send in letters or responses i i say thank you for kind words but then i always ask them what else do you think we could do what you what what is it that you like about the newsletter etc so having that direct line of communication is what reminds me of blogging and also that is is crucial to to keeping that sense of like this is an always an experiment we're always playing around with what we're doing and seeing whether people like it or not you're absolutely right it's we had a huge audience on scroll my audience on the newsletter is actually tiny compared to the scroll audience and yet in some ways i i like it uh uh in a very different way because scroll does not speak from the first person my newsletter is from the first person it is a more direct connection to me rather than to the news organization in a way and uh and and that again it reminds me of those great days when you're building community in a relatively smaller space yeah so i have i mean financial times has great uh legacy of like sending newsletters like rex and all and people read that and they have a huge following and very particular voice so when you when you started this and when you did the so one of the funny things which i remember about doing these pilots someone wrote on the twitter that pilots never fail but they never scale yeah so so i my question is coming from that point of view your pilot worked it was around elections it worked for you uh so two things one how did it uh is are there any numbers which you can share is it in thousands and lakhs or subscribers which you reach out to and how did the growth how did it happen over a period of time was there a lull period and then there were spurts of growth because elections but then the current government has never given you a chance not to be interested in politics ever so has it been uh exponential growth and we expect another four years of exponential growth and then something like that but ideas and do you categorize your audience like do you have some personas in your mind that oats one audience is like this one audience group is like this and the other one is like this uh right uh so a bunch of things there um uh i i would say yeah that's that's an an interesting point about uh pilots uh and scaling um of course maybe my experience is not comparable to many others because i have this huge advantage of a giant funnel at scroll so um for for about six months uh we didn't advertise the newsletter on scroll.in at all it was basically just pushing it out on twitter and the articles that were going up um and you know i was in the thousand space uh at that point and and we're still in the in the large thousands honestly on the newsletter with the you know something like 35 to 40 percent of people opening every week um which is pretty high for uh for a new space where about 17 is 17 of an open rate is average um part of it is the question of a match between how big you want to be and and how big you can be right um i might want to be to me this is a 20 30 000 newsletter maybe a 50 000 at most if i spend a lot of money really to acquire an audience um because it's it's a bit geeky it's a bit policy heavy there's there's a bit of insidery stuff which is something that i wanted to do um and for me it was easier to make that decision to not have it be a hundred thousand a one lakh two like three lakh newsletter which of course is not something that has happened in india yet let's say but also not even aim to do that because we already have scroll and an article is always going to get read much more than um a newsletter so the aim for me was to have this be a more dedicated community that paid attention to what we were doing instead of trying to surf in seo wave or anything like that um and and to eventually if possible monetize it or use that community to to get them to subscribe to scroll or things like that so for for me the objective was also pretty clear that i i'm not trying to get to a massive audience because we have the massive audience i'm trying to build a more dedicated community that is that finds value in my voice um growth is pretty steady in part because we now advertise on on scrolls so really it is about the funnel because if you're not able to get people to even figure out what this is um you know it is going to be hard for you to spread you'll you'll spread in the twos and the threes and the tens and twenties initially and that goes up to the hundreds to hundreds um when you're able to either advertise a little bit or find some form of circulation one one big thing i suggest to everyone is what we used to do back in the day with blog rolls which is basically if there are fellow folks who are doing uh interesting things you do crossovers right you you cross post for them and you post on your own or you you guest posts things like that but you're basically giving their audience a chance to reach you and your audience a chance to reach them that sort of thing for the political fix constant iteration in looking at this scroll quite honestly didn't have a clear newsletter aim because we're a really small news organization and again the first the first idea is always the site building that and making sure it's it's sustainable um to me this was more of a pet project that i wanted to see and and pull off entirely and pilot myself um i do think we could acquire a lot more users um if you know people do that through you know paid acquisitions people do that through morning brew style referral programs giving people incentives to sign up and things to me it's mostly been organic plus recirculation on scroll dot in i would expect it to continue growing we do see bumps um at december very few people were reading lots of people on holiday etc um and so it made me start to think of actually let me take that into into mine and give january let a bunch of early issues in january be recap so what happened in december look forward to the year ways of getting people interested in it again and then again you start seeing that that graph climb quite a bit um you're right this government we we've you know since the election fix we've had uh what happened in kashmir we have had this nrcca we've had riots in delhi and then we've had uh covet and the lockdown and the migrant crisis so so in terms of interest i have been i don't know lucky is not the right word for all of these awful things but um you know there hasn't been no lack of interest and so that growth is also steady i have i have focused a little more on on who i want to pay attention to um because i don't want to do lay political commentary a big part of for me the political fix is indexing politics and policy so a lot of what i'm trying to do is take something that is very political or newsy and give people a sense of the underlying depth in terms of policy by pulling in research pulling in academics talking about what what is underlying that that subject and so i know it's going to be geeky and not go over a certain point but that might be a super valuable audience you know a bunch of academics or people in think tanks or in in government basically paying attention to this to me that's almost a more valuable audience than having one like people who occasionally click this open to see what's going on they you know that like i said the times of india has six or seven people on a daily newsletter that does a great job um and i'm never going to be able to compete with that so i also find my niche and and try and stick and develop that community really well great so when you decided that this is my objective and this is the audience i want to get to and i'll have a steady growth are there a couple of examples of a particular newsletter which really stood out for you or was that the the moment you that something clicked in your head and said oh wow this is what i want to continue more or particular topic which you said oh i just discovered this because i came across this feedback so a couple of examples which were like the aha moment for you right because writing a newsletter is a very dreary thing you keep doing it like week after week or twice a week at times it's just not as enjoyable as people think it is but then there are those like those moments of very silent achievements which you count for yourself oh i got this now i should do this couple of examples which really stood out for you so i'll take you back a little bit on this um early on with both the election fix and the political fix i had a colleague who made these amazing illustrations uh i i can't show you the my favorite one is modi uh as a superman and you know bullets of like criticism of him bouncing off but i bring this up to point out that one of the things was that was entirely extraneous to me but might be important for people paying attention is that the imagery right really matters either picking great photos finding ways to get people like no matter how good your writing is you know if it's the first time you're getting people to pay attention like of course you can go back to the political newsletter and like it's completely dry it's gray it's meant to be read on the phone and super easy and sure that works for politico because that's what they are but i would say for anyone who's looking to venture into the space your newsletter has to look good i had the the the privilege of having a great illustrator colleague who was able to to make these fun fun illustrations and things like that but um even now uh she no longer works with us and i just spend a little bit of time on on on a free photoshop alternative honestly to to um turn out not really illustrations but produced photographs that go with the political fix that try and tell a story a little bit and and i could say aside from you know aha moments or things i know people have responded to me saying that they saw it or they paid attention because of the photo or the illustration so it's invaluable making sure that you find a way for people to hook into your your product and this is i mean as after six years of helping helm a digital outfit i mean i can tell you this is standard for for digital products in general right my very macabre um illustration of this is that it's a it's just it's just you're a lifeguard and there's a sea of like people out there who are all drowning so which one are you gonna pick and the one who's able to get your attention first is that right like that's what you're trying to do on on facebook or twitter if that's where you're sharing or on google news and so having a good headline and a really nice image matters ultimately at least early on as you're trying to get people to pay attention um i i find what i found early on i i interviewed a couple of people not knowing whether folks would pay attention um and uh immediately i mean part of the thing like i said is that scro the political fix is is coming from my voice it's it's it has first person in it although i we don't like to use the i much in scrolls copy or even in the political fix but you know it's coming for me it's a little more conversational and chatty and i got more comfortable with that over the course of the newsletter compared to my sort of reporters or editors voice and you can do that easiest when you're talking to to someone and so we interviewed someone in fact i did my first interview at uh in in august of uh constantino xavier who's a think tank scholar um after the audience uh wrote in somebody wrote in saying this is someone i think you should be talking to and like i i really enjoyed that sort of thing so when i just had my first couple of q a's which were based off you know books that were coming out i started asking people what who they would like to hear from when i started getting a lot of response and and it it really surprised me early on when i asked for responses on like what do you think about this subject or what do you make of this thing that's happening in the world very few people were actually responding but when i asked maybe a more simpler thing like who else would you like to hear from i got a lot of responses and i think again uh centering people at the core of your stories or what you're talking about like fellow like whether it's colleagues you're the subjects of what you're writing about you know always making sure the stories about humans that tends to work a lot um and i would have to think about um like i said for better or worse it's been an extremely newsy year and so each one of those things has given us a pretty good bump um a part of it is also that the indian media space is shrinking to some extent and people able to say certain things like we are able to write i think intelligently about the protests that happened last year or about the riots and that really gave us a lot of of interest but in between in january like i said when i saw this dip in december i decided okay let me talk to the rest of my team and get each person in my team to send in a prediction for what they think uh not 20 20 but the decade of 2020 going forward will be for for journalism for for the new space and politics in india and just getting these voices actually a lot of people loved that piece which was not my voice at all so take what you you know your mileage may vary on that that they really enjoyed other voices there but i got a lot of great feedback from from having a bunch of different people and so you don't need your own team to do this right you can ask friends and things like that and get other voices into your space but you know mixing up formats i find works really well of course one is testing out formats to see which ones people like week on week but then also mixing up occasionally having a listicle occasionally pulling an outside voice occasionally doing a more graphical thing um i think uh is really what keeps people paying attention um and those are the ones that i found have got the best response so now do you have a style guide a vegas style guide of sorts in your head do you have a lens like i was i was listening to rafat who is founder of skift a travel uh platform and uh he in fact built his first entire company on a blogging platform and so he suggested a couple of other people also suggest that oh like people from digi day they suggest oh i have a lens so roughest lens is marketing strategy and technology so anything which is happening in the field of travel uh he will filter it through these three lenses for the larger audience do you have and obviously there are style guides like i i i when i think of a newsletter i am constantly thinking of like very basic thing that one part of it should inform one part of it should educate one part of it should connect my readers with other readers like they should identify and the last help them grow their businesses because i'm writing a business newsletter and my lens is largely industry uh businesses industry and economy any issue anywhere in the world impacting these three small businesses in these three realm i have to write about it so do you also have a vegas it does not have to be like very formal i mean like economist has a very formal style guide this is how you will use these are the headings which you will use bloomberg has a led and this is how you have to like write the first paragraph do you have some rules uh rule book or have you come up with something or do you just naturally just write something so so scroll has a style guide um for the website and so a lot of the stuff like and and some of it is is key in what i said early on which is that we try to assume that nobody has previous knowledge right i can't just introduce even something as common as cbi or aia dmk we used to fight with our editor all the time having to actually say all india karagam for every like but the idea is to not assume that your your reader knows what you're talking about so even if you put that whole thing you also put a comma and say you know one of the big political parties in tamil nadu in the south of india etc some of my readership is quite international i have a lot of academics who who use my newsletter to pay attention to me in the states and so i keep that dictum of always making sure that it's accessible so while the full scroll style guide doesn't always apply to the political fix because i i speak more within an authorial voice rather than a brand voice the simple suggestion that was given to me back in journalism school in america and i find this this is the way i write which is uh is is it an interesting story uh imagine telling your mum this at the breakfast table now the reason why the breakfast table is that there's lots of other things competing for your interest in the morning and so this has to be interesting enough but why your mom because you're not going to throw in swear words you're not going to be profane you're going to keep it interesting enough you're not going to assume she knows the the youth you know lingo and you know it makes me sound old to say the word youth lingo the idea is that for me writing is best unless you have a very specific style in a writerly style is best when it sounds like you're telling someone an interesting story so in the back of my head my style guide is like if i said this out loud um and somebody was sitting in front of me is it going to be interesting if i keep them hooked of course some things you change to make sure it's interesting on the page um but that's that's the base style right uh in terms of formatting like i said i've kept uh trying to alter that um i learned to not put in links that are like in the early days of blogging you would have this thing where you you it will almost be like a simpsons episode where you put in a link that's really a joke but you have to click it to get that joke yes over time i was like you i can't do that because people are not clicking um and so it's almost you know wasted space although we have unlimited space um so you i learned to keep everything within the inbox and then keep a very specific space which is my linking out space where i tell people like if if you enjoy the links you come to that section but everything else you should be able to read within uh the inbox um in terms of a lens the political fix is quite clear we keep you informed so anything it's not meant to be comprehensive you're not going to be on top of everything that's happening in india from week to week um for that you do daily newsletters right like you you go to something like the time stop 10 or or um there's a couple of new ones i'm forgetting the names now lakshmi chaudhary has just started a new one that's pretty good there's explainer explains right yeah um and and there's a few other ones that do that really well um or you could just or you could read scroll down right this with the website is pretty comprehensive but what i'm trying to do here is to give you analysis of what we think is the most interesting or important topic i'm not always speaking like for for about three months the most interesting thing was kovit so you you i wasn't doing covet every week um but maybe finding an interesting aspect and some of this because scroll is so small some of this is not just the dna of the political fix it's also the dna of of scroll routine which is that i'm interested in federal subjects i'm interested in things that um question the relationship between the citizen and the government i'm interested in how politics interacts with policy so not not i don't find useful the the regular chatter on evening back and forth between a spokesperson of this side and that side but more importantly okay the migrant crisis is huge what what data can i pull out to give you a deeper understanding so for me the lens is partly i have to inform you like i can't i can't pick the random thing that is interesting me this week it has to to some extent be the thing that's topical or interesting and and it has to be accessible so even if i'm writing about the complex issue of gst compensation which i think is fascinating you probably don't you know i have to make sure it's accessible i find a frame an analogy something interesting that that introduces you to that subject um and and the the final thing is i try and get get some depth so to me like find the find use basically use news as a way to get your attention and then divert that like it's almost a sleight of hand divert you to reading about more boring geeky but more important you know policy stuff great and i mean like just final three questions you can take as much time as you want or as less as uh in fact they are like four things one um we want to know a bit about the tech part of what you uh use do you use off-the-shelf uh tech solution or how did you start or you had your team building it for you like how do you access those analytics where do you get those numbers from is there so you don't have to disclose exact but some part of it then is there a plan in your in plan that you access social media in a particular way to spread the growth uh or increase the growth of your audience um and and and and and then uh we also want to know one book which you want to which won't i mean this is a very difficult thing for a journalist to say or just read this one book and this will help you but think of like someone who is starting out and wants to like brush up on writing or brush up on understanding something like one book i will not name that book now maybe if i name that maybe you want to say about the same book and lastly when i started reading when i started following you on on twitter in the early days earlier days when probably you came to india whenever you used to tweet a lot about music i remember uh happening in delhi uh classical music if i'm wrong if i'm not right there was delhi events and there was rohan's twitter feed which would tell a this classical music performance is taking place there so uh yeah so that last bit uh do you also like put that bit of personality into a newsletter or not once in a while so these are like yeah i'm going to go back to the resources one here uh only because i would say for those who i like are super interested in this stuff all of these places um i'll flag dan oshinski for example here uh dan ran the newsletters for the new yorker for a little while he's working somewhere else at the moment i can't remember where but he runs a monthly google document with a bunch of resources and interesting things about newsletters and he will respond to your email extremely promptly no matter how big like his work is he does actually consultancy for newsletters as well so like he i think it's his uh it's his business as well but he's extremely prompt in replying to things and he's got great collections of newsletters and it's called not a newsletter because he puts it out on a google doc it's about newsletters but it's a collaborative google doc that comes every month and i would highly recommend that for all questions about tech about analytics about funnels and how to convert and so on um first specific to scroll honestly because our core thinking at the end of the day is on the site um we're focusing on that and and really the newsletter is something that you know um scroll stack was being built and it's built outside it's not part of scroll in that sense and it's being built outside and it has lots of fascinating things that that would be relevant here but ritesh we'll talk about those next week but for me we started off on mailchimp um using simple analytics i of course have the google analytics of of scroll dot in and i know where my leadership is and i can you know look over that that cross section a little bit we also have subscribers on and contributors on scroll dot in and many of those are newsletter readers um the political fix is not our only newsletter for a while we ran a newsletter for our magazine section for also for our sports section and we had a very popular one called books and ideas run by arun nava sinha who is a popular like the best bengali translator and really uh it's incredible to me how much work he gets done because he works at scroll and also teaches at ashoka and also translates books um so we had a bunch of these things and we had um uh uh we were basically using mailchimp when substance showed up uh sort of independently i was interested in it simply for people who are paying attention or interested in this sub stack is free right until you're trying to monetize it relative to mailchimp where beyond a certain point an audience you need to pay for a sub stack at the moment and who knows if this is scalable whether they'll keep this forever but subtract if you're not charging people for it is completely free no matter how big your list is um which which is is a useful thing i honestly don't know what the specifics are for scrolls taxi you'll have to ask krita about that yes yes yes uh but uh uh but yeah so that that's the simple tech reason i pay attention to the simplest analytics i'm not very complex on this front i look at the open rate which i think is important to be fair mailchimp had better ones than than subtracted mailchimp would give me a sense of people whether people are repeat openers where they're coming from and so on substrack is much more simple in just telling me how many people are opening week to week and i would have to look more specifically to see if it's the same people opening week to week um so it's not as complex in its analytics but i think it does the job for anyone who's starting out um and beyond that i i honestly rely a lot more on direct feedback um and i keep uh i try and keep it's not on every newsletter and i haven't done it well for the last few months but usually i try to keep a google form open with three or four questions in an open space in the newsletter at all times so that anyone who wants to give me feedback at any given moment is able to click through and just tell me what they think and it has genuinely informed how i have changed formats tried different things on the site i think that covers like all of these things here i have read through all of them and i and they really uh are full of great stuff i mean understanding a funnel trying to figure out how to keep loyalty um it it for anyone who's interested in the news game um one of the big struggles for journalism organizations over the last decade has been to get readers to pay directly for news and and what has become conventional wisdom now is that simply the best way of getting people to you know subscribe by paying money to a news organization is if they're accessing you through email because email is a little more intimate it's a little more relevant to you than maybe going finding someone on facebook twitter going directly to the site so uh lists have become extremely important for news organizations as ways of just databases for which to convert subscribers and so newsletters are crucial that way and growing them is extremely important um as regards the book can you uh the you was the question a book that you think is specific for writing specific to newsletters i don't think i have something not for the newsletter yeah for writing yeah for any book which comes for the audience like you're talking about or who wants to do newsletters and have some idea because it will include a bit of writing a bit of planning without understanding how this basically it's journalism in a different form and people like me like i'm not a journalist so when i picked up uh william sensors on writing style that helped me a lot because he kind of took up so i was always very conscious about my grammar that i'm always wrong my pronunciation is not right but then he said no that's not you have to worry about less you don't have to worry about everything just focus on these four things so that kind of helped me um yeah sure uh so i'll i'll just take you back to these suggestions which are the newsletters that i i really love uh strategy i think there's a really good job of it and money stuff just to get a sense of and vox sentences is a great newsletter that is um that's link based basically it's explaining the news the the book i'll pull out i haven't read this in a long time but i remember it being extremely influential for me which is stephen king's on writing okay um stephen king is the horror writer right he's not someone you think of as being classically uh you know a high art in in that sense and i believe he wrote uh this book which is part memoir part guide to writing um after soon after he had his famous accident in in maine it was a life-threatening accident i read it i heard it a long time ago maybe a decade ago but it stuck with me because it was both extremely interesting as a memoir but also really a good guide it made you want to start writing immediately after you're done with it he he doesn't uh he doesn't mystify the process he doesn't um make it seem like this magical thing that just emerges from your brain he talks about it as more like methodical you you have to get to it every day these are some clever ways of putting your words onto paper and cleaning them up afterwards um it's not necessarily good for digital or good for newsletters or good friend but it's good writing tips and a very readable book so stephen king's on writing i would suggest that perhaps is only a book they haven't made a movie about uh yes pretty much i'm sure they'll documentarize it at some point yeah yeah um at the very end yes yeah one question and i mean you were pretty much i asked that you had already covered that in the answers okay i mean a bit about music why not a newsletter yes why not a newsletter a sub stack sorry scroll stack because that will be sacrilege when i say substract to you guys why not a music newsletter for you from you someone like you can like i would really i mean i i started reading but then i i've been listening to classical music and delhi events is a very messy place to go and find out what's happening sadly it's it's really uh um i have a random book suggestion there for for you if you're interested it's called ragan josh um by sheila this beautiful book about music in delhi um in which uh i believe ali khan refuses to go to the air studio because he's afraid if he sings to a recording studio it'll take his voice out and he'll never get it back beautiful look um uh my answer is if you could kindly ask the news cycle to quieten down a bit i would be happy to do that sort of thing but it's been a bit relentless since the elections we have not had you know a little moment of of uh quiet on that front i would you know there was a time in my life that i thought i would be a pop culture writer and not uh not someone into hard politics or news and i really enjoy even uh maybe bridging that space between um you know what is popular on twitter but also finding classical getting people interested in in those kinds of things so it it fascinates me but honestly it's purely a function of time at the moment i mean also over the last year uh i i saw the first episode of this thing called bundish bandits on amazon um which is about classical music and in the first episode was really bad in my opinion i still sat through the concert at the end of it and i was just like it's been so long since i've heard live music and it's it's uh it's something i really miss but yeah there's not there's not been much time honest that's the only way but i i like twitter and instagram which which i have as private um as these spaces where i can be online uh without always having to be on on top of the news although i don't do it as much out like from my side on twitter i i have a lot of people that i follow who are into random things like like birding and dinosaurs and music that that are interesting to me but not necessarily part of my my work or my day-to-day the other side of it is that when your day job i guess is writing and thinking of these things it's hard to have a side gig that's also writing um i i much prefer now like so i while i would love to do something on the side about music or something else um i think i would attempt to take the tabla up again at some point or something to that effect rather than another thing that involves writing maybe or maybe i don't know i mean like releasing a list or two about uh i because i follow coffee very closely and then there are roasters who release their music and their playlist once in a while and then they take is totally different than what i usually listen to and then i really feel that there should be there should be some like music room was a book which kind of told stories like kulam ali won't sing and unless he ate kebabs because yeah he said that that's what my voice comes from and so forth i wish that part is also kind of uh i mean people like you and i who have other interests should also do something about it but just have a word with the powers that be to quieten down the news cycle and i'd be happy to great so i that that's pretty much sums up our today's uh session and it was a great session i really love talking with you um these are there are some great tips i will share in a summary and i will also share the summary with you and the audience um zena i think we are done with the today's session thanks again for joining yes and you might want to just uh put a plug again for next week's session which is again uh yes oh i'm sorry about it so next week we have ritesh who is one of the founders of scroll stack which people at times uh call sub stack for india but it has solved the solutions such as earning money by using by writing and doing creative stuff you can write pretty much anything and then ask money from your audience next week we'll discuss the tech part of it in terms of how we can create content how we can earn money that's next year we'll put it out on social media and more details will go out as we do that thanks everyone for joining thanks rohan thanks so much for having me | Hasgeek TV |

EuiyLu4h6b0 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuiyLu4h6b0 | Trader Joe's HAUL: July 2019 | [Music] although her friends quick video of Trader Joe's hi baby I had to run out to Trader Joe's because I heard our Trader Joe's was having cotton organic cotton candy grapes and we love love love our con can crepes this is so good it's it tastes literally like cotton candy so what I do is I'll get half of it wash it out it we just leave it out into the counter it's gone within a day but then I'll get some and freeze it love love frozen grapes during the during the summer but it's really nice frozen too and it's really nice just fresh out of the counter cotton candy grapes oh my gosh okay and then we are really loving our fruit this time of the year so we got some small honeydew I also got buttered lettuce salad mix and then also I got some Tomatoes this one is the sinfully sweet is it Campari tomatoes they had a sample you know how it is that's ready to dance when they have a sample of the mozzarella cheese log and then it just had basil and then in a little place to it squishy she said why is this one so squishy it's the soft one so it's already pre sliced for you um this one is pretty new vanilla flavored baton wait for a Johnson wanted to give that a try and then he also he was with me so he also got this as his treat Danica wanted to get this one as her treat chocolatey cat's cookies this one happy and I love this for our salads we have been eating a lot more salads and then I have to go to Trader Joe's because I needed to make a deli meat run so I always get my deli meat over at Trader Joe's we are loving this peppered turkey breast it goes by quick like we'll go through this whole thing in about a day and a half so I bought two this time Jonathan's going to a party so he is actually bringing these Halfmoon cookies to share black and white I think is what they're called also and then cheese for burgers and then I also got more of the gourmet pepperoni and then also we love this with our I have blocked of Beecher's flagship as well as the Kerrygold cheese that I still have and just a small small haul but of course I always share with you guys what I get alright until next Trader Joe's haul Mahalo I just wanted to add in here a little bit I have bought this basil from Trader Joe's gosh two months ago maybe three it got a lot full but what I do is I um I trim it once like you count like up to five I think that's how one of the nursery gals taught me it's like you count the the thing up to five and then trim it basically gave it a haircut rather than just you know pinching it and then it didn't get us high anymore but it did get fuller and then it kept on coming in with my leaves yep that was yours mama it was small and so I try to that's right yeah it got bigger so I just keep watering I just make sure that it gets watered every day because it's on my bay window kitchen yes and then she saw me cut it with a baby scissors and then everyday I just put water because it does dry up pretty quick and then there's the tomato and then this one is pre sliced that's really good and then I use this Trader Joe's balsamic kind of like balsamic vinaigrette glaze it's a perfect place for it yes all right friends another Trader Joe's haul I did one last week or maybe less than a week ago I grabbed another two bags today so just some quick quick stuff that I needed I'm trying to use up all the stuff I have into my pantry my freezer so I'm not trying to buy a whole bunch of like one big haul just trying to basically get what I me for the next few days all right so just today we did grill up this one hubby had this I think just like just last uh the hall that I did with you guys which I'm gonna combine with this one kids and him had it I have not had it but they said it was really really good now my son Jonathan said he loves it he's very picky he's like a meat carnivore straight up cheese hamburger and steak and grilled chicken kind of guy but he liked the flavoring on to this one they said it was really good so I got another packet of that one and this wasn't actually gonna cook up for their lunch tomorrow Japanese fried rice it used to be $2.99 I could have sworn it used to be $2.99 but today it was 329 so the price we're not on that one got two bags of mandarin orange chicken I love this one it is exactly almost to the tee of Panda Express orange chicken so the family does love that this is another favorite of mine this is the light blue one I put this along with like the lime seasoning so I thought that this would really go well with these chili burgers and not have the buns and just have the chicken along with that on the side kind of thing so thought I'd try that a lot of junk food today I bought this one but um sliced French well it's a brioche Bruce um I figured tomorrow I have to go to the office for work and then I wanted to make the kids what I call that nut grilled cheese what do you call that toast the French toast so I'm gonna make the kids french toast tomorrow before I head off for work and then like I said I'm going to the office tomorrow I don't want to go to my work office company office once once a month so when I go there I do have to bring my um like my snacks cuz I I can't step out and do all the running around within the time frame of when I need to get back to work so I'm gonna be bringing this is one of my favorite like nuts and berries and chocolate mixes at Trader Joe's is just straight-up happy trekking mince cashews pistachios chocolate cranberries and carrots I think it has a very good combination plan or just the nuts and the sweetness to it hobbie wanted to pick this up the top eat chips I've never had this I don't know if he'll like it and Happiness on lazy Kido I bought this before Trader Joe's he did not I thought he didn't care too much for it it's very very cheesy so I didn't care too much for it but now that he's on keto he wanted to go ahead and give that shot one more time he also bought these cheese sticks cheddar I don't know if it's for keto 10 grams for two sticks and then this one is going to be less than 1 gram of carbs for half of a package so this is really not bad at all we got this one for the girls hubby used to love this one he no longer passed these things into the morning but packing it for the girls these apples oh my gosh love love these apples so I bought somebody Chris apples these are huge right huge and the family loves those the kids loves those I love this one I have been drinking my home semi-sweet wine every night for the past maybe two weeks now before I go to bed so that because I have a new work schedule I have to get up in the morning for the kids for the school bus that's like 5:45 in the morning and then I go get ready and go straight to work on to my home office but um but I'm a night person so I've been drinking half a glass or a quarter of a glass of wine a night with my Beecher's Beecher's it's a local cheese the flagship so good it has that a a bit of a sweetness to it and a bit of a crunch to it along with these slices of apples and sometimes I'll get even like the the baking chips the dark chocolate or semi-sweet baking chips and then I'll eat that along with it to the side so so good okay but this one is almost very similar in taste the honey crisps and the opal very very similar in texture this one I've had before so this is I'm going with my BAE at work so we're packing each other lunches so I want to make sure that I have some sweetness and then she said might she's bringing food and my my contribution was sweetness and snack so I got this one dark chocolate covered power berry so real fruit juice pieces made with acai or a SIA pomegranate cranberry and blueberry juices and dipped in smooth dark chocolate so this was really good and then for the now she does like these kind of kingship that I'm gonna go ahead and pack for her lunch so then I always pack an Apple approved for their I also for the kids because she's in high school I slice up the apple put it into a container and then I have her eat it in class or right before class or right after class so - she tends to have a tendency of during lunch time going to classes so that she can get extra health or hanging out with friends so I have her eat throughout the day so that she doesn't go home for her chair practice and then this one I love this this is so perfect with by itself or if you are eating something that needs rice I just get this and then I wrap it like or bread tuna fish sandwich instead of a tuna fish sandwich I'll make the tuna fish as is and then have this and then kind of have a little tuna fish snack with seaweed and that's it oh wait this one I got this one this one I lips are mom's spicy hummus and I like to use this plane as well I'm gonna go unpack that for work tomorrow and then I wanted to try this one this one looked like it was brand new the mango and ginger Chris I'm bringing this also along with this one for the hummus as well as for the like the cheese so that's that friends a couple of new items today this one is new for me and then of course just a bread is new and this one new items but I'm excited about this one mango and ginger wonder how could that combination is as always thank you guys for visiting a simply simple

H_yxo51KOwk | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_yxo51KOwk | Better Vent Part TWO: Final Thoughts | [Music] hello everyone Jim Roy here with luxmana real estate so a couple of months ago I did a video on the better vent you can click here to take a look at that video it was about installation and that kind of thing now I've had a chance to put it through the paces and see how it operates I've got some thoughts some cons and some workarounds no affiliation with the company I'm not being paid for this or anything like that I just wanted to try out the product and do a review so basically first of all if you're going to install this in a place where you've got a stacked washer and dryer you're going to want to put it in a place where it's easily accessible first of all because you want that air to flow and second of all because you're going to be accessing the filter on a regular basis so let's go ahead and open it up after every single load I go ahead and open this and I clean out the secondary lint screen I say secondary because the dryer comes with its own lint screen which should be cleaned after every load there's another filter this is about as dirty as we would let this get it basically Comes This Clean and after about a month's worth of use it gets this dirty and you need about 12 of these per year at least I do for a family of four and we do a fair amount of laundry so how the system operates is the warm air comes up through here it's supposed to go through these two filtration systems and come out into the rest of the house a problem is that a dryer like this one right here is powerful enough to even when properly calibrated and weighted the little safety flap here at the top that's supposed to stay down until the filter gets dirty enough and then pops up and tells you it's time to change the filter even with a brand clean filter properly weighted the air will immediately as soon as you turn it on come up and start dispersing lint and everything throughout this room and not really getting it clean before the air comes out into your house so the solution is I just found something heavy drop this down put it on top if you're going to do that great just be diligent about checking this on a regular basis you don't want to impede the airflow that decreases the efficiency of the machine and it also risks fires we want to make sure that we have good airflow and that's the same reason why you want to clean your ducts on a regular basis your the duck that takes all the air usually outside of the house now it's that time of year we're heading into spring I'm going to go ahead and disconnect this from the vent itself this is easily done with just a Phillips head screwdriver this is a little part on Top that loosens you connect it to the other vent you tighten it back up and now the air flows outside the house rather than inside another problem that I had is that all the hot air would come in and it would be just in this area right here and maybe spill out into the hallway when it does it tells the thermostat okay it's time to turn off it's warm enough in the house but in the bedrooms it's definitely not warm enough so the solution I have for that was to turn this to fan on mode while running the dryer and what happens then is that activates the motor and the the fan the blower within the HVAC system to suck air through the return and then disperse it out into the rest of the house where I want all that nice humid air so one of the other things I like about this system is that I don't have to clean out the pipe taking the air outside the house it's it's a relatively long run of pipe and it's kind of difficult to clean it and basically if I have this system right here it's much easier just to clean it right here on site it's a shorter run now if you've got an apartment and you don't really have the ability to switch to an outside system just know that you're going to be having really warm air in the summertime when you don't want that warm air just piping directly into your unit so the big question is is it worth it and I think the answer is yes I do think it adds value I think it is going to save me on heating bills it wasn't very expensive to buy it and the filters aren't that expensive and I need probably about five or six per year just during the winter season I feel like the quality and efficiency of this video contact Deluxe minerals for the next time you're ready to buy or sell a home [Music] | LuxManor Real Estate | UCgX6dxhvCcCA38GXgHJQDbg | 2023-05-08 | Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) | en | metadata | en | 865 | 4,376 |
YIw2kTYT20c | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIw2kTYT20c | Contracting in Combat Zones: Who Are Our Subcontractors? (Part 2) | thank you for your patience on that we had one more vote that had been anticipated and so it took a little bit longer but we were happy that you're all back with us and ready to start asking some questions which I'll kick off for five minutes because I want to ask something about the basic premise of the soul operation here we everybody seems to be testifying on the notion that we've accepted the premise of private contracting and subcontracting is here to stay on contingency operations yet every one of you cites numerous problems with oversight with management and personnel the integration of the planning the command structure legal issues liability responsibility control over individuals for whom we're going to get the blame whatever they do even though they may not be technically in our department of defense or our state Department USAID so given all of those difficulties and separating out the state and USAID part of it right now but you start with the popular defense why are we giving more consideration to the notion of not having contractors and subcontractors in our military operations where we already established clear lines of responsibility for those in the military Claire Lynes of management clear lines of accountability and all of that I mean it seems to me that you know if we just define military operations as inherently governmental because they're military operations in the name of the United States under our flag overseas that that would remedy a lot of these problems mr. Solis I'll take a first have it I think what we've tried to say is that we're not saying that contractor should be used one way or the other I think we've try to say is that from what we understand from the department in military operations that it's likely that they are going to be part of it so we're not saying that they are that being said going back to what I mentioned in our statement is that there needs to be a fundamental look at the requirements for contracting if in fact you want to do contracting I don't think we're trying to say that you will use contracting but if that's what you are going to do in terms of your military operations you have to plan up front you have to look and say are we going to contract for certain things not just on the logistical side that we are using contractors on the Intel side and network operations and a number of other things we are using them as linguists everywhere I go you know military members say I think we've gone too far but I think there needs to be this fundamental look-see at the beginning to say whether or not we are going to use them and if we are going to use and then we need to put the proper over tighten controls in place certainly would agree with you there I'll tell you something you know what I look at all of you talking about being on top of this issue since the 1990s and advising you know everybody to start looking at these contracts and moving forward or whatever like that and basically so lodge by just being blown off I mean here we are you know 20 years later and you've got a little bit of compliance with some of the recommendations and a whole lot of non-compliance and sometimes in attention to them so miss you gone yeah I think the whole issue and I think my colleagues here raised it is the inherently governmental function issue which is I believe OMB is proposed policy definitions of that the issue is how closely related is it to the inherently governmental function and should these critical capabilities being sourced I believe there was legislation passed in the last couple of years that requires the military departments to take a look at their contracted out capabilities to see whether or not any of them should actually be in sourced which is brought back in-house and that's one way in which the department can analyze that particular situation I think there's already legislation out there there Mouse legislation is there the compliances internets and that's the problem and again the question is back to when did war ever becomes something that wasn't in herriman inherently governmental in all the things that go with it on that when I see recommendations here you know trying to incorporate in and integrate into the command chain contractors so they're more involved in the planning and the operation like that is well you're going to do that you might as well have them be on your payroll mr. bone mr. chairman you say when did that happen I think the time is the late 1980s when log cap one was created and and it's eventually the support fuel food billeting of troops in the field was out sourced and we spent now on log camp in in Iraq in excess of 35 billion in that in and in that in those three areas the it's been an incremental ism since that since the late 1980s what can be covered is a continuing question in every conflict and and and the answer is always a little bit more has anybody ever looked at you know what is that we did world war two what is it that we did in the Korean conflict in terms of that mr. Fontaine it is what a segue exactly in our report actually we have a historical section that looks back actually all the way to George Washington and contractors in some way shape or form of played a role and all of our conflicts going back that farther you know thousands of contractors working in in Vietnam in Korea the big change though has been what they've done in the dependence that the United States has had upon what they've done so in Vietnam for example you had a large number of contractors working on construction projects in Vietnam and that obviously is less controversial in terms of what contractors do you know now we in in the current Wars we've had contractors doing interrogation private security operations wait weapons maintenance according to reports even you know maintaining drone operations those sort of things which are much more controversial so I think that's the big change that's happened over the years is the scope of activities that contractors have begun to carry out and because we have you know upwards of 200,000 contractors now in Iraq and Afghanistan if you pulled those out of the operation or tried to federalize them all you'd be very difficult to do so I wonder how easy it would be to keep voting to be over there involved in these conflicts it was 200,000 people the United States citizens in combat as opposed to you know 90,000 in one place with the hundred and ten thousand contractors sort of off the books well this is another political consideration i'm and i think this is another aspect of it is that the political cost goes down to the degree that contracting support goes up because you know we we always mourn the losses of American service people who are killed or on the faces of the fallen tributes and everything else but contractors die and are hurt and they barely register so there's a reduction in the political cost of these operations but I think at the same time unless the United States has a very significant reduction is international commitments which personally I think is relatively unlikely at least in the near to mid-term then we will probably continue to rely with our current force structure on contractors do the work that our military is not big enough to carry out on its own Thank You mr. flake let me just follow on that theme if I could and Mr Bowen mr. Fontaine first we the report that was issued with regard to the warlord Inc this is one and it was mentioned before mr. Silva's that you take into account both efficiency and whether or not it it aids our policy our overall policy goals this is one where when you have local contractors with the trucking contract it's it's I think undoubtedly the most efficient way to mood move goods between military bases in Afghanistan but when we find out that a significant portion of the money it's that is used to pay those contracts is going for protection money to some very unsavory characters some of them very tight with the Taliban or or are contracting the Taliban for this protection that certainly runs counter to our policy our counterinsurgency policy which calls for one source of authority that being the Afghan government and no parallel authority structures there that were in this case not only tolerating we're building up these militias the warlords and whatnot what how do we reconcile that it kind of goes back to what the Chairman was talking about and where you know the political costs certainly if we if we did what the Soviets did use their force structure to guard the supply lines now according to this report of a 75-percent of their force structure that would require you know doubling of our number of troops and it wouldn't be very efficient and we'd have certainly more casualties but it may be the only way to run an effective counterinsurgency policy as we've defined it how do we reconcile that or can we reconcile that Mr Bowen want to give it a shot well the issue the policy issue i guess is using financial resources to / to pacify a region and it was certainly expedient in your expedient process ad-hoc with respect to the the keeping the trucking routes safe in in iraq much more complicated war much more thought through process the Anbar awakening the Sons of Iraq program spent in excess of 450 million of commanders mirchi response program money to pacify and bar province and and regional areas similar policy issues different approaches to how well thought out how well structured those the execution of the two programs was in Afghanistan the policy execution was essentially expedient and almost out sourced as you point out in Iraq it was it was carefully thought through as was the transition of the maintenance of that pacification program now born financially by the Iraqi government mr. Fontaine you have any thoughts on that become that you know the 35,000 foot level how does this look in terms of the use of contractors in this trucking-contract well obviously in any war funneling money to your enemy is not a good idea so I think you should start from that premise I do think that at some point there may need to be a fundamental choice made whether to proceed whether the effects are mitigated through more oversight and that kind of thing to proceed in a fashion where we are willing to trade money in order to have a pacified area through which our supply lines can travel knowing that some of that money will go to our enemy or whether we're willing to tolerate the potential of more casualties and more disruption of our supply lines I think that that's probably a fundamental choice but when it comes to counter insurgency I think that not only do they have all the problems that you just described when it comes to aiding our enemies reducing government legitimacy giving them more opportunity to attack rather than to not attack but I also think there's a strategic communications issue to this we're supposed to be on the side of the good guys and so as word gets out that we are sort of willingly or knowingly providing money that ends up in the hands of the Taliban I wonder if that promotes a sense that the United States is not in this sort of for the long term in order to actually see the government succeed rather than trying to go with short-term expediency thank you Miss you God I have just a moment left you mentioned that there are provisions if there's no value added from the having the prime contractor or the subcontractors that we have the authority to pull back some of the funds used for that how often is that utilized um we haven't done work in the area in the past through that was legislation that was enacted I think in FY 2007 but one of the things that it focuses on is the subcontractor level we do plan to do some work based on the contingency contracting framework for reform we've identified where Prime's have had problems when we plan to take a look at the primes that are primarily IDIQ contracts and we're going to go down to the sublevel to see if there is issues are issues related to pass through as well as other issues related to cuss up contractor responsibility as well let me just ask it another way quickly you're not aware of any instance where we've actually pulled back funds no we have I'm not aware of any instance about recovering excess costs thank you Miss chu I recognized feathers Thank You mr. chair well last week we found out that in the course of investigating the host nation trucking-contract that military logisti tutions were relying on reports from prime contractors to gain visibility into the subcontractors that were actually driving the trucks and providing security for the convoys and there was strong evidence that these subcontractors were paying off the Taliban this is a very distressing situation and what I'd like to ask the panelists is in general what areas of oversight or appropriate for DoD to leave up to the prime contractor and what area should do d take more direct role in overseeing and in doing so how could we prevent this corruption from occurring you know I think and one of the things in preparing for this hearing it became a quite apparent that the Federal Acquisition regulation has not kept up with sub contract management we just took one contract out of here an IDIQ contract with i believe it was five prime contractors and there are 200 subcontractors under that Prime if you take a look at the Federal Acquisition regulation there are provisions but as far as sub contract management I don't think it's kept up with the level of subcontractor performance that's required under these primes so I think there needs to be a look at the Federal Acquisition regulation with respect to subcontract management are there not guidelines for this there are and there is and I talked about a little bit in my in my opening statement there's the consent to subcontract which is if the Contracting Officer requires a prime to provide information on their subs in order for the Contracting Officer to consent to subcontract then there is some insight into subcontractor responsibility but if the Contracting Officer does not require that then you're not going to have the insight and the provisions in the current far allows a lot of leeway to the Contracting Officer and and what would change it so that you could have this more stringent oversight of the subcontractor excuse me I didn't quite hear the question what what could where would it what would it take to change it so that you could have it things is I think the provisions that let me just take the situation with the warlord situation the Contracting Officer can under the current provisions of the far designate subcontracts in that situation is something that requires special surveillance or a special oversight it does allow in the in the Far to do that for example you could say to the bride I need to be able to consent to you subcontracting with these primes I need to get insight into your subcontractors I can also establish perhaps a special surveillance program for those particular subcontractors so there are some provisions but it's up to the Contracting Officer to determine whether or not those provisions are vote and if there are some other additional requirements that have to do with a contract or purchasing system and it gets a little bit more detailed as to when you have to get the consent to subcontract from the contracting officer I'm just I want to ask him to the question about the culture at the Department of Defense and mr. Solis you talked about the fact that the contractor reform at DoD is hampered by the department's inability to institutionalize operational contract support by accepting contractors as an integral part of the total force but I also note that you have that you had had several recommendations but the DoD has been slow to implement has been slowed to implement many of the recommendations what could change this culture I think one of the things again and i think the Joint Staff and I think this was alluded to at the hearing last week there was a joint staff study to look at the reliance on contractors in Iraq and I think that again begins the process of looking how reliant that that DoD is not only for Iraq button for future operations in terms of the reliance I think also as I mentioned the testimony here when you look for future operations there are requirements to look for there are requirements in to produce what was called an annex w which looks at a contractor requirements for new operations or future operations that has got to be done that has got to be done very rigorously and on time and I think unless we unless the department dues does that kind of thing we're going to be in the same situation talking about another contract the next time I think the only other thing I would offer is that I know in the current version of the defense authorization bill that the Senate just passed that they made some changes to the requirements for looking at contractor requirements in in the defense bill and that's going to be part of the QDR at least as a vision now so it's going to bring that strategic look up up to it at that point I still think there are based on basic problems in terms of again as I mentioned lessons learned you know background screenings I think those things are we're on record with some of the recommendations to make changes to that for what a reason the Department for as not acted upon all those in a timely manner we're still trying to pursue some of those but again I think the fundamental piece is that you got to look at your reliance on contractors before you start making other adjustments thank you yo PAC mr. Duncan he recognized for five minutes well thank you thank you very much mr. chairman and thank you for having and holding another hearing and trying to call attention to all the problems all the waste fraud and abuse the one scandal after another that's gone on through these many years that we've been in Iraq and Afghanistan throughout all this time we've had more contractors and subcontractors than we've had soldiers in these areas i heard mr. Fontaine say a moment ago that the use of contractors by the military has gone on since the founding of the country but i can tell you there soon never been the ridiculous markups the excessive almost obscene profiteering the there's never been the ripoffs of the taxpayers that have gone on to the extent that they have gone on in Iraq and Afghanistan and these wars have always been more about far more about money than they have been about any real threat to this nation it's it's really a shameful and it's and it's very very sad what has gone on and that's there there's really no real way to correct it when you have private companies dealing with each other things are done at a full fourth or a third or half of the cost that you have when you have the federal government involved dealing with contractors in the Department of Defense because of the lobbying influence of retired Admirals and Generals has has been the worst and the most expensive of any of the federal contractor at contracting that's gone on by our government but that's that's really all I have to say thank you very much for giving me this time Thank You mr. Duncan mr. Lynch she'll recognize fighters Thank You mr. chairman I want to thank you for holding this hearing mr.

Iw4IBV6Of-8 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iw4IBV6Of-8 | Warriors vs Blazers, Raptors vs Bucks w/Adam Caparell - Sport24 | today on a special episode of Collider sports time the conference finals are set in the NBA we got the raptors taking on the bucks and used to conference finals and then we got the Blazers taking on the Warriors in the Western Conference pause when we talk about all of them let's do this thing hey John roca the host here joined as I said by complex sport senior editor Adam capital I've been trying to get this guy on the show for weeks finally randomly he was able to come on today so and I appreciate it cuz we got a lot to talk about MBA how are you man there's a few things going on in the NBA yeah how are you how you feel about the playoffs overalls walk I mean I think yeah I think we've had a really good I remember last year's players were atrocious yeah and this year the drama level has been ratcheted up and we've seen some iconic moments we really haven't had in a while so yeah the drama has been fun the paynus has been percolating throughout the playoffs which I which to me adds to the drama level and why the NBA's a drama unto itself unlike anything else on TV and the play for the most part has been really really good we've seen guys step up their games to new levels the superstars that you want to see and the other thing that's fun for me is that we're seeing some new blood really start to rise yeah and and because it's got I mean to me you know like the idea of Cena Cavs Warriors Finals last year I was like done with it thereafter more year so I'm really happy that we're definitely to get some new blood in the East and possibly in the West although we'll debate that pretty quickly but um yeah it's been a good run through the playoffs so far yeah I've agreed as an NBA fan it's been a massive awesome fun run to the playoffs and you talked about moments you talked about young guys stepping up we got to jump into this game seven that just happened with the Sixers and Kawhi Leonard Kawhi Leonard winning this thing with one of those playground shots at the end that bounces off the front of the rim bounces straight up in the air does a couple more bounces and then right through the hoop and that's their victory incredible job that's what they got a guy like Hawaii to lead them it's cuz they wanted that NBA playoff experience to get them to the next level and look at that the Raptors who've been pretty much made fun of for years in the playoffs are now with Kyle Lowry still in this Eastern Conference Finals against these Milwaukee Bucks it's just transcendent Milwaukee Bucks but the young guys here for the Sixers they really showed up Simmons did his thing and B did his thing they took this thing to seven they weren't consistent through the series I think was the difference but the Raptor stepped up and did what needed they D needed to do what impressed you the most coming out of this series uh I mean listen we could start with Kawhi because if you look at the numbers his run through the Eastern Conference semifinals were pretty damn impressive yeah I mean the numbers he put up he had you know 33 points at least five of the games he had 240 performances I mean you can clown at him a little bit for 41 points on 39 shots yeah that's incredibly inefficient that's like AI and a bad night numbers that's like just jacking Jackie Jackie with a line drive strategies it can be ugly sometimes but yeah he had that iconic moment that goes down and wrapped his lure because no Raptors player in their 24 year history has hit a shot like that yeah remember Vince Carter's probably that the one Raptor had the Big Shot opportunity guess the Sixers back in 2001 right but Vince missed it and who else is revered in Raptors history and lore you know the way Vince Carter is right nobody so you know quai had his iconic Toronto his Raptors moment that no other player in franchise history has had and I wrote about this you know this week for complex about how if you want to kind of you know play your amateur psychoanalyst and kind of dive into the head of Kauai which is probably a fun house you know I kind of think that that moment gives the Raptors right now a little bit more of a leg up on the competition to sonim and free agency and as a discussion for a different story for a different day or whatever but yeah Kauai has been incredibly impressive I think the supporting core has been really good now he's gotten clowned on a little bit here and there he has performance but that being said you had a good like classic car Larry game that it wasn't too flashy came up big in big moments had some good defensive stops down the stretch especially that one steal that poke of mine that was that was huge you know so gave Larry some credit and don't clown him too too much pascale siakam obviously did what he's done and he should be the most improved player in the NBA as far as I'm concerned he's been he's kept playing extremely well in the playoffs so Raptors have a very good team and if Kauai can be a little more efficient against the Bucks I to me that's kind of a toss-up series yeah I'm looking at that right now the Bucks I think are pretty heavy favors I think they're minus 300 for a goose which is significant favorites but the Raptors are live underdogs they have a great supporting cast and yes dealing with Yanis is going to be a beast and a huge issue it would be for any team right but there have been some guys if you look at numbers and Italy speaking of how they matched up with Yanis from the Raptors whether you put Pascal see how come on and whether you put we've Kauai on him yeah the one issue right now are the one issue the one little person they're missing right now they love to have for the series we ot on a wall be out of Overland ectomy rejected Muse been out for a while his numbers guarding honest actually pretty significant pretty impressive so there a lot of reasons why I think we should be settling in for a drag amount knock him out seven-game series with the Bucs and the Raptors and that's gonna be a lot of fun and again a new blood two good teams I think could give a good run to the Warriors who I think we're both expecting come on we'll talk about that yeah it's like it's an evenly matched up series you have two superstars two top five NBA players right now right that are healthy doing their thing and among the best players in the league and yeah it's like it's I'm Way more jacked up for what we're seeing the east and I am for the watch yeah before we jump into the preview of the series here with the Rapids and the Bucks I want to get your final thoughts on the Sixers here they go out in the second round I think I think they went out second round last year as well no but they seemed to fight a little harder to see me finding their identity piece by piece bud there was a little bit of unrest within them you know did Jimmy buss Jimmy Butler really that last piece they needed or not Tobias Harris was there did his thing but Jimmy didn't really grab the games by the throat when he needed to in the end here in Game seven I think he didn't do enough to get them over the line Kawhi did do you feel that or Simmons the problem here there's there's still ice so there's a lot of pieces that still have to kind of one have a full season to gel together right with that team to really get and really know what you're dealing with now if you look at them that's starting five of what became at starting five after the Tobias Harris true right that was the second most effective and I think efficient starting five in the NBA behind the Warriors so obviously and locally speaking the Sixers did some really awesome things when everyone was clicking at the right time and one was and all the cliches you want to use but it's very difficult for those four guys and you add in JJ Redick or whoever else you want a piece in there to come together in a 25 game span figure it out and be in the same page and really elevate their games to a level when you've had you know teams like again the Warriors is the best example you can just do it so easy because they've been playing for so long together I think you can see a lot of upheaval you're doing for most okay the Bret Brown situation is very interesting Brown remember was brought in under the Sam hinkie all right you know the regime and he's been in for six years in six years for an NBA coach is practically eternity these days now it is so there's like only handful of coaches that have been with their team for six plus years and Brown is like the anomaly where he deaf it was in the hot seat number one because when you bring in those guys those four All Stars all-star caliber players to start together you have really really high expectations and obviously the whole process thing went out the window real quick it's like now we're gonna complete Windham and towel they need to get the NBA Finals and need to really seriously contend to get the Emmy finals yeah so what are they do AB RepRap new regime with Elton Brand running running things does he want his own head coach - as does the sixth year you know time limit of your voice kind of just falling on deaf ears you know mean Bret Brown is out I think by Browns a very good coach he's a lot of fun to talk to from the media perspective because he's very good explaining things very honest very open intelligent oh yeah it's and from again from from being at six games and covering them I hope he continues yeah because to have a coach that that is open and honest with his analysis of what goes on his decision-making where they top to your team that's really fun to follow and and to see what's going on like if he does get fired and move on that'll be a loss for the NBA community that's to cover and watch and see what they do so that's number one I think personally I think Brown probably they go in a different direction Elton Brand wants to bring in his own guy you think they'll go I think they'll go in a different direction right now you know the Lakers were desperate to hire people or they're gonna only get Frank but you always put sometimes you find boom and we can have discussion on Frank Vogel's out there to bring it and there's always mystery candidates and the name that jumps out right now that's available is tyloo and you can wonder if Tyler's playing away in here because because we've known that Brett Browns kind of hanging in the wind and potentially ripe for getting fired and if the Laker what's a better job right now Lakers Sixers tyloo was the name out there that is potentially out there to snatch that job and a name that you wouldn't have that much issue with yeah if you're sixth responders an NBA observer at all because tyloo has the bona fides of blah blah blah so Brett Brown I think probably writing on the wall probably gonna go a different direction okay the number two what do you do it Tobias and Jimmy write you now you can sign both of them they would have enough hypothetical we have spaces on both of them but you'd be in luxury tax he'll be coming forward because you have been Simmons contract coming up in a few seasons right so the idea of keeping both of them for a four or five year max deals pabe isn't feasible yeah so who do you Pirates I think you gotta go Jimmy well yes you can find Jamie right now is arguably a top I don't think I could be Jimmy's a top 20 player you can maybe make an argument to put him top 15 or top 10 but Jimmy's a top 20 players yeah I love Tobias Harris personally horseys watch no ice is a good very very good NBA players I've seen him work and knowing him personally a little bit like I have an affinity for him as an individual as a human being but he's not quite on Jimmy's level and not quite overall talent level obviously is indeed and what Simmons potentially could be so who's the odd man out there it depends on who the Sixers my prioritize Jimmy probably brings a little bit more to the to the level because of his defensive mentality and being the elder statesman and all that's intangible that Jimmy brings but Jimmy's also thirty right so do you max out a guy for five years who's about to Zerby age 30 sees bright plate and is awesome yeah there's a lot of weird things and a lot of tough decisions the Sixers have to make right this offseason and I don't you know and again Jimmy's the natural one to latch onto and kind of hit your wagon to but maybe Tobias is better overall because you still need outside scoring and shooting he's a little more consistent when it comes to that and Jimmy and even though Tobias didn't have a great postseason he still has a ton of potential still younger still you know he's a good defender and on the up and up and up East Coast guy like there's all these factors to weigh into so I think you know if that shot doesn't go in for Kawhi and the Sixers win in overtime yeah you know again running about this for complexes like you that was a historical bouncing for bounce of the ball that's gonna it's gonna be cheap organizations because the Sixers have again if you start with Bret Braun probably being let go and then it trickles down to all these other decisions if he wins and they go to the Eastern Conference Finals much tougher to fire him and give him direction when he just led you to them for this place you've been since the Allen Iverson days so yeah I mean that that bouncing the ball on that and that break that the Raptors got from Kawhi is again reverberations are fascinating hypotheticals are like infinite yeah but it's also fun because you don't get to do that with other sports where you do the NBA yeah I'm excited to see what happens with them because I've enjoyed watching Philadelphia when they've had all the pieces clicking top five their starting five is as talented as any in the game yeah again when they've been clicking which hasn't always would happen right it's been a struggle at times but when they've been playing really well it's like damn you gosh you guys should be in the NBA fathers you guys have that kind of talent without a doubt yeah and we'll see what Elton Brand does that he's got quite a task on his hands and remember Elton Brand New Year's played for the Clippers and the Sixers day he knows what it's like down there in the trenches can he be a good executive now show what he's got bringing his guy keep the guys he wants to keep and build this team and take this team to the next level again because look they've done great work here with them now making these deals but is it enough to get them to the next level I would have liked to have seen him bead Gianna's final that would have been fantastic but maybe it's just a year too early with him bead and the injuries he's had to overcome as well so we'll see how that affects things down the road for them and then if you wanna get spicier do you entertain moving Ben Simmons yeah that's like that's another layer of you know because you know Simmons obviously we know how limited he is right now offensively scenario yeah just completely hypothetical no one's really supporting this you're saying this is legitimate but like what a Reagan what is man like what if the Rockets enquired about Simmons for Chris Paul and some other pieces Jesus what about that thrive in Simmons obviously has like you know the knock knock on him right now is obviously there's still no jump shot after two you know two full seasons the NBA three years being in under an NBA umbrella although Houston can do so it's like you know the questions are starting to you know whisper in it's like is he lazy doesn't I want to work the way he wants to but you see the talents you see the brilliance of it and it's like yes if you can develop this confidence that allows you to shoot in these big situations I mean it's insane that a starting point go in the NBA today didn't take a shot outside of 12 feet in the postseason it's insane it Philly brings these people in that do this Marco faults now Simmons like it's just it's just fascinating to me like what was the process all about was it well I mean some bead with people who but yeah but of course you take like every every GM would have taken Simmons in that position of course now false a different story we can debate that because we've seen what Tatum and other guys behind him that become right but the Simmons situation Philly had to take some yeah you have to take Simmons but look what you get with Simmons and he is he is an energy player when he is dialed in he is fantastic that game six was he writeable watching him kind of control that game for the most part and make those effort plays and those hustle plays that are not consistent enough and you wish they would be but he's also like a ton of basketball players because you know whether in college or MBA in you bro marquel faults there are a million examples of guys that can do what you don't see in practice yeah and when the lights aren't shiny bright when the cameras aren't rolling and then when that time comes and on the big stage it's you know the conference isn't there and they freeze up and we all have in some situation our life no matter what so it's not it's you know we're all we're all human to some degree but it's a lot more prevalent than you think and it is perplexing that we haven't seen the development yet and maybe there's a fire lit under Simmons this summer that really gets him in the gym and really jacking up these these shots but you know the people that cover the Sixers on a daily basis in Sixers people will you know tell you that and can shoot yep and they see it on a regular basis that he can knock down threes and and he can be a mid-range guy and and be a consistent scorer but it's not translating to the games it certainly didn't translate at all in the place yeah yeah quickly do you think there's an issue between Brown and Simmons maybe that's the reason no I don't think again so it's just a matter of like Simmons maybe need Brown has been incredibly honest which is again great for the me perspective guys to cover him and he has he hasn't but he has reserved his calling out of gods and throwing people on the bus in front of the media which is obviously conducive to offering or to you know sustaining your relationship with the players and being on their side so he's been a good job he's been a good job Brett Brown has of being the political guy of playing both sides he will call guys out to degree one needs to be yeah but he hasn't been critical Ben Simmons because when someone's awfully struggling with the conference in that regard yeah you'd have to tiptoe around that's that situation right extremely care it could go south real quick all right let's jump into this preview here Raptors Bucks quickly what is your feeling on what's your initial feeling here do you think Raptors do you think box and why I would lean towards the Bucks just because if you get Malcolm Brogdon back right now and with you know their I think I think it was 2 2 for the season series between the Raptors in the end the Bucks and no one Kawhi didn't I think Popoff I've the on especially had his regular numbers against the Raptors I think Kauai roughly had his regular numbers against no one was you know above and beyond their numbers and game at least that what stands out top of my head so you have a relatively even match series Bucs obviously have a home home court advantage which matters and I would expect that you have a knock them out drag them like awesome seven-game series I can flip a coin and yeah and pick either team like I don't really there's not like I don't I don't have a spicy take you saying that you know baptism five because the rest of that like it should be a relatively evenly matched is you have two different you know dynamic like offensively what the Bucks bring the tables would be different than what the Raptors bring to the table and that makes a fun which you have a very different matchup and seeing these two teams going at it for four against six or seven games so I don't have yeah again if I wish I was coming with a spicy take saying you know someone off the bench like Danny Green's gonna hit a million threes and really pay attention to or you know Brogdon injuries the one kind of x-factor right now bring him back into the fold where he hasn't played in basically over a month we could argue that injury in the anobii injure both of them yeah you get both those players come back for their respects through this series it could change the face this years completely yes so I mean you have to well I shouldn't say complete because you're honest still has the one hole in this game why doesn't shoot three-pointers but you have two guys in Kauai and Yanis that are alphas and they have really good supporting casts I think people don't give a I think the right amount respect to yeah I think still for the most part that the the secondary pieces you're see Occam's your Lowry's your greens with Raptors and your blood shows your brogdon's your Middleton's you know whose yes crystal doesn't get the respect and but it also Brook Lopez to I think those best all here's here's one deep dive little mattress I'll try to be like you know be the smarts you know and now analyze or expert or whatever may be the one matchup truly watch that could be really interesting and really in really determining game or two is your Paul is not to Paul your saw your Marcus all verse Brook Lopez man right because if you extend Gasol out to three point line away Brook Lopez does all the time and Lopez hasn't had a good postseason so far hasn't hit that many shots if he heats up a little bit in the seven-game series or however long this this series ends up going and you bring this all out and you have zero rim protection whatsoever and Yanis can really dominate here and then just do the crazy things that we've seen them do during the regular season I think the Gasol Brook Lopez matchup that on paper is you would see the two of them kind of guarding each other facing each other I think that's the one low-key one to really keep an eye and see how that develops over the series that's fair cuz Lopez has been they're popping trays and really redeveloped his game with that aspect to it over the last few years it's been valuable the team in that way we look at John John Yanis is 27.4 points eleven point four rebounds and four point four assists per game in these playoffs so he has been a monster they figured out the Celtics after that's a second in that second game in that second half they figured out exactly how to short-circuit the Celtics would they do the same with the Raptors I feel like the Bucs are slowly gaining in confidence every round people have been people including me I doubted them saying like they don't have the postseason experience they don't I don't know what this coach can do with them I don't know if the guys around them are gonna show up cuz they're great in the regular season but will these players really show up in the playoffs and having that Brogdon injury but they have proved me wrong a lot of doubters wrong will this and and the Raptors have looked at times inconsistent so you walk into the series do the Box seem the more consistent choice here and can they take care of business I'm starting to lean towards the Bucks only because I have seen the bench for the Raptors not shoot that well and I want to consistently and I wonder especially the Fred van big my god where's he gone I wonder if that's gonna be the key difference here yeah the bench hasn't been as good as it was last year for the Raptors that I think that goes without saying and I would say the supporting pieces overall have been more impressive for the Bucks this year yeah than what you have around Kauai in the Raptors right but that being said this is still new territory for the Bucks for all their players very good for mike buddenholzer and again it's like do nerves and somehow and the big stage does that gets them in one game or ones one scenario in one situation in a fourth-quarter whether on the road right now which felt that way and get serious yeah exactly the Raptors have been there Kauai has been there right now we've seen the Raptors fall flat on their face plenty times and probably the best thing for the Raptors that we see the typical game one you know no show well at least on the road this time you know it's not give their hosting the Bucks and they're gonna have completely no show after that insane emotional lift up that Kauai gave them because if if they were hosting Game one I would totally throw the rent money on the box because there's right for the most massive letdown part and maybe going the roads actually good thing for the Raptors and based in their notoriety and over the last you know three four years there let downs of we we seen them have all the time these game was especially at home so yeah I mean you know the experience factor definitely is on the side of the Raptors I'd say supporting cast and overall talent I've given an advantage to the Bucs but again it's like I said like five or ten minutes ago like you could flip a coin yeah a thousand times and and it's really evenly matched up and I will say bucks in seven very entertaining games okay I would agree I would agree I think box in six I think they're gonna figure them out other Raptors out and just kind of slowly grind them in a dust as they've been doing they've been playing great defense to in these playoffs so that may come into play against this high-powered Toronto offense alright let's move on to the Western Conference here the Blazers went on the road they took care of business against the Nuggets this was a really fun game to watch they came back from I think 14 points down in the game or 17 points down against the Nuggets showed a lot of heart these Blazers have been shocking the world since they walked into playoffs this year having that inner kitchen or having them go down just a few games before the playoffs started having eNOS Kanter step in and they've been doing it CJ McCollum de Manila Dame Lillard with that shot against the OKC Thunder to end that first round series and the look everything he did here but you know he kind of was off base in game 7 he what he didn't show up as strongly as he had in previous games but call him had to carry the load and they took care of business against Nuggets team that look to be almost bucks esque in there like can you believe in them or not believe in them they had an opportunity at home to take care of business couldn't get it done now you have a confident Blazers team walking into a game against or walking into a series rather against the wars did you enjoy are you enjoying this ride with the Blazers yeah I mean it's fun I mean you know it's it's fun to watch Dame Lillard obviously because he's top five in may play yeah you all NBA for the season and if you don't enjoy game lower than I do just comes out to like if you don't like it more than Russell yeah it's like you know Dame is is a Cho guy but just like is a killer on the court like if you don't like love that I like but yeah I mean Game seven was a CJ McCollum game whatever reason whether you know Lulu was tired exhausted whatever the nerves or just had an off game I love the first year off game because he was bad hit like one three yeah he's the corner three was it was important yeah but like it's the only three he basically hit the entire game I think finished with less than twenty and just was struggle the entire the entire afternoon it's a CJ game in CJ performed in ways that I think a lot of people didn't expect he hit dagger after dagger after dagger mid-range shots were just like these can't keep falling them and he put him in the eye of the Nuggets so I mean you know Nuggets obviously sent into a level that they've never experienced before at least this core obviously so you know it's losing a Game seven it's tough and you can maybe make a case that their top-level town is better than what the blazes brought but I'll make it easy contention that the blazer is overall contingent of talent what's superior and they're supporting guys performed in ways that the Nuggets supporting cast didn't and you know also nuggets were pretty awful shooting the ball comment spawns like you're gonna Jeff 30 plus 3s and make like five of them like you can't you're not gonna win those games yeah like you're that atrocious shooting I don't care if you're you know playing at home or some other absurd scenario like you're just not gonna win the knock on the best book I'm starting to believe in these Blazers more and more because they went and took care of business on the road at Denver Denver had been almost unbeatable and there's home there's some key defense stops to done there was two so it's like on top of missing shots and in the Blazers you know Lillard had some key steals from a column you know got his hand got a few times here and there so you know give them the credit for being I guess a little more of the experience a little more having your emotions in check and just being knowing about this no knowing how to perform in that scenario when it's crunch time where she didn't quite get that because there were a few you know too many shots the last like five or six minutes of the game that's the joke itch like rushed a few shots and there was just like you could you could you could sense and I'm sure in the arena even more so but like you get sense a hesitancy or like a helter-skelter aspect of them in their offense where it's like they just didn't seem to be that fluidity or that confidence and the shots and they rimmed out and it was pretty easy to tell so you know execution you know defense and just straight up missing shots it doesn't take rocket science to realize why the Nuggets didn't win game 7 and I don't think it's that big of a disappointment that they didn't win game 7 again being that this is the first time this core of this young core right having it run through the playoffs had a great season but it's not gonna get picked up like a seven seed like lost to the number three seed in a knock em out dragon very entertaining seven-game series that's been arguably the most even matched up series we've seen so far all these players it's not a lot of people watching this series it's like you know lit up so I've seen Lila doesn't get the respect that he should as a top ya know certain top 10 NBA player and you can make a case now that he's inserting himself to the top 5 discussion yeah and you know yo Kitsch looks like a like he's you know carving your meat the deli like he sees his body composition like screens butcher like it shouldn't be that good as an NBA player like he's like the doughy asunder you've ever seen your life please incredibly athletic makes these incredible passes had the softest hands of like you know any person the amee's you know these big man has seen a long time and you know Jamal Murray can rub some people the wrong way with some high but when he shows yeah but he's on I mean it's incredible so it's like you know there's this third year nuggets of the Nuggets still don't have a massive identity so a lot of people can i you know relate to them and can't really get on board with them but yeah it was a fun series that got lost in the weeds because you know rockets Warriors are gonna you know consume most of everyone's attention yeah and you had big market teams over in the East you know Dragon was attention away so wasn't it wasn't it wasn't shocking to see that series that was most entertaining seven-game series from you know from games 1 through get lost in the shuffle but if you didn't see that many of them then yeah you missed out on some great games I'll be honest where there's one of the series that I've watched every game and then the next morning watched the house of highlights 10-minute compilation of their games because it's fantastic to remember some watching a trailer again after you watch the movie for the first time the shot in the drama was was high level much higher than what we saw in the east between those series and certainly you know let's take the back Rockets warriors I think every game was within a 5 or 6 point I mean even though sometimes like the last minute half like you had eleven point you know margins that kind of got whittled down through fouls and three points in general what you saw from the rocket from the Rockets from the Nuggets in Blazers was consistently really really good dramatic basketball throughout those seven games alright we're looking at this and now the Blazers go on to take on the Warriors then you could argue that the Blazers that have been kind of lucky this offseason as well in the play I'm sorry not off season but in the playoffs because they encountered at OKC team with Paul George having some issues then they encountered a team in the Nuggets who haven't been there this far up yet at this core as you mentioned Adam and having Jamal Murray be this Jekyll and Hyde type a player and now they face a warriors team without Kevin Durant at this point without DeMarcus Cousins who really was kind of a black hole on that team anyway and you've got them kind of coming back to that splash brothers type of thing that they had before can this remain consistent because you've got two players that can match anything curry and Thompson can draw up with McCallum and Dame aluminum so this looks to be a more exciting series than people think and maybe the Blazers might sneak this one out and seven what's your feeling going into the series uh yeah I expect it to be a I will still say the war is advanced sure especially for getting Kevin Durant back for game you know right now by the way I don't think he's coming back okay off ball injury I just don't buy it I mean if you go by his history of calf strains and you go by the recommended you know time spent away doctors will say maybe a month injury whatever um so yeah he's gonna he's gonna be compromised when he comes back I think they're saying that stuff to keep it in the mind of this it can be yeah sometimes my games you know can be played and you know gamesmanship here but if Kevin Durant's gonna come back for games three four five six seven whatever I'm still giving the advantage to the Warriors and I was really perplexed why people were so gung ho about the Rockets being having this massive advantage Duran went out like I didn't get it because you know texted about this yeah exactly it's like you still like the one game to rot the Warriors got off the Rockets this year was the one game Kevin Durant didn't play in Houston yeah in the core then you know the core of dream on Klay and Steph performed in that game and they performed like champions as they are down the stretch and perplexing why the rock is also that game for a number reasons we're not here to talk about that but like I what I was shocked that so many people were on the bandwagon of Rockets headings that series number one in the number two like everyone basically bearing the the warriors you have to Kevin Durant went down like I didn't get that so you know if you look at top to bottom 1 through 10 in the rotation who has the advantage of the top two your players the Warriors do of course even without Durant right now and when he comes back it's even more lopsided but if you talk about players six through nine or ten and that rotation and your secondary players Blazers have better personnel yeah like that the bench for the Warriors is just getting thinner it's getting thinner than Kevin Durant's you know the bald spot in the back it's wearing down real quickly it ain't the same crew that I used to be Iguodala has given you moments here and there but after that like Livingston's not being a saint is not the same place 15 years past you said dagger pull-up jumpers you know mid-range all the time and he's barely any minutes you know kadala is I mean you know loonies been very good you know but loonies now has been certain since I starting Alana bogus you know Bogut was great in the Clipper series but non-existent him for the Rockets oh I've no idea how Steve Kerr uses him in this series and then you go down the line in McKinney Jordan Bell and XYZ it's like it's like the personnel for the Blazers with al-farouq Aminu Rodney hood Meyers Leonard Jason Collins were a really good series against the Nuggets like they're playing much better in collective as a unit you can make a case that they are stronger personnel wise in the Warriors right now but I can't go against clay dream on Steph and if Durant's say saying represent of what he is like that should be enough to get them over the hump against the Blazers Durant's always been in my mind surplus to needs like they was a look he's a lovely riding buttery but again as people point out accurately and I'm not a mom this is not some you know astute observation of why and it's like there are times they were coming way too reliant on him yes where it's just like you know the ball movement and the beautiful best but you see that you used to from the from the Warriors several years ago it's easy to give Kevin the ball clear the hell out let him do his things because there's no that's right because you get a little heavy from him and he rises up and he's a gangly you know Tim Robbins and twas the night before Christmas monster that no one can SWAT and block so it's it's very it's it's so easy to get reliant on Kevin they've done that before and I think you know one was performing well and he just gave the ball to Kevin Durant he basically got them over there the letter you know over the finish line against the Clippers so you know maybe without Durant and the practices and getting back into the flow of what was war what we knew as warriors basketball before he came into the fold yeah that's still a tough thing to defendant into and you it's even tougher it can be yes dream on has been has had a very good playoffs yes yes you know he's healthy and playing you know just being the ultimate pest and rebounding in like basically a borderline triple-double threat every single night and if clay finally starts consistently popping off which we haven't seen yet this playoffs and Curry's kind of doing this typical curry things in the playoffs because you know historically Steph hasn't always been the best performing the playoffs but again we saw an all-time horrendous first half from him and then all-time fourth quarter from yeah and then still won the game so it's like you know and even an awful night for the Warriors collectively as a team got them over the hump against what everyone thought was the best team to knock them off so it's like I can't go against the wars in a seven-game series against the Blazers but I do think that it should be entertaining and fun and there's no reason why this series shouldn't go at least six games okay I got I got the Blazers in a bit of an upset here because of the defense that the Warriors has been dropping like there are 12 right now in the ambience we've seen the years exactly and I think that could come into play against a high-powered offense like what the Blazers run and I have a feeling that Kanter and draymond Green are gonna knock each other out at some point there's gonna be belt there's gonna be punches thrown I think between green and Kanter doesn't take much is because punches would have resulted in suspensions that nobody some extra flagrant will be Cantor Cantor takes no crap off anybody now and if draymond starts his flailing stuff claiming that he's not really trying to hit anybody Cantor's gonna take care of business and there's two great roles going against each other like the antics will be extra and the anxiety and and the ability under each other's skin will be at new level so yes there will be some issues here and there at some point it's in the creepy get tangled up there will be flagrant handed out and technicals which always add you know to the mix but taking the Blazers I don't think is a huge huge stretch right I'll say mild stretch and I think right now Vegas has the wars like money you know five to one you know - five hundred right now so I think plays like plus 375 on the money line for this series which is pretty good value but I just don't see it happening you know fair enough and the Warriors were underdogs going in this rocket series quote-unquote underdogs and they showed up because they don't like to be called underdogs they fight they're champions you know Rudy Tomjanovich said that never doubt the heart of a champion you saw them step up but in this situation they're in the pole position you have the Blazers being on the dog I wonder how that affects thing - it's like the one thing that ruins dynasties is ego yeah and that may come to fruition this summer with Kevin Durant's and all the other Mack and klay Thompson you know but for the road for so we talked about ruining dynasties evens oh I'm sorry ego can also sustain them because yeah those guys when everyone's doubting them your clay dream on it Steph yeah Romans like you guys are about to be knocked out by the Rockets we'll look what happens yeah like you know ego kicked in and clay had a pretty a good game in Game six and Steph obviously got his stuff together in the third quarter in the fourth quarter and dream I had a great game so yeah you know ego may ruin them in a long run but I think ego also he as Steve Kerr succinctly said after the game and and they're famous you know we were giants paraphrasing yeah it's like they I think ego kicked in it was like you know we are champions the Rudy Tomjanovich thing ego Duffy came into play in Game six and sustain them and carry them to the Western Conference Finals okay we got a few minutes here to end here let's wrap up on this news broke this morning on ESPN that John billion the University of coach the University Michigan coach is going to step in five-year contract with the Cavaliers hey do you like this however the Cavaliers do you think this is gonna work at all beelines been one of the most underrated coaches in college and his ascension from basically nothing to what he is now is astounding um I think reading about this which is amazing he's never been insistent coach yeah that's incredible but that's like yes that's mind-boggling like whether you're a high school and he's been like t3 d2 d1 and he did a great job of West Virginia and didn't awesome job in Michigan like he's really well-respected in the college ranks how that translates the NBA is always remains to be seen but that being said he's also known as being a very offensive minded coach and certainly offense is the name of the game of the NBA and if you have young players that college sextons and some other guys that they can buy in and depend on what the Cavs can get in the draft to he's dealing with guys of age bracket that relatively speaking yeah he is yes think about that so when you're trying to mold to top of your guys sex and whoever they get in the draft and some other guys and you have some key veterans like you know Kevin Love still around Tristan Thompson jr. probably will find you know new digs they are yeah yeah I mean you know not maybe a huge stretch for B lines or sticking him in a you know I guess Cleveland counts as well Rust Belt Midwestern City whatever but like bay line is a typical blue-collar coach so he's gonna fit in really well in Cleveland and does his hiring mean there's some gonna be Renaissance and Cleveland no but I mean why not try something go different direction and Kobe Allman you know putting his stamp on the organization with the Bron fully in the rearview mirror and going a little bit outside completely outside the box but you have a guy that again well-respected in the coaching ranks has a track writer track record of success every single place he's gone and with offensive-minded like why the hell not yeah you got to make it attractive to come to Cleveland certainly beeline does that brings Hailu back again it was the best available coach out there you know it's your option to kind of limit so again slightly thinking on the box but I can I can't not get right now I know it's it's tough not that it's tough to not get I'm excited about it we'll see what happens Billy Donovan's last of the hill and been much better with the Thunder that I never thought so you know Bilan is is subdued but you know still intense and again he has a track record of getting stuff out of these guys hasn't always necessarily had the most talented guys and steen especially as West Virginia teams back you know and they're just on the Big East so yeah beeline you know put some respect in his name he has a record of our history rather of making the most of what he's got and bringing out and bringing them to levels that maybe they'd even know they could do so that's gonna be fun almost a five-year deal is a is a long distance and you know you know it's like beeline doesn't have the track record of a Tom Izzo who every few years we hear about some NBA team seriously going after and Izzo kind of giving a you know thought to it at the same time with a men of his accolades in his background you can't give him a three-year deal because you accept that so it's like he had a really good thing going at Michigan I'm actually surprised he left there just me trellis Michigan's been excellent under his leadership Final Four candidate yeah but you know five-year deal again try something different on track record sure okay one less things we wrap up do you buy these rumors that are now started like Steven Schmitt Steve Naismith's tweet the other day 95 percent sure that Kyrie and Kevin Durant are going to New York do you think that's real I have again talk about trying to psychoanalyze Kawhi Leonard like oh yeah I've trying to psychoanalyze can I read in Katy yeah as the two of them can be as miserable as humanly possible tyloo thing is that Kairi entirely we didn't get along which is why he didn't go to the lake I never heard that before from people and I wasn't around the calves that much mostly just around the playoff never remember reading that and that being a dominant theme in narrative around the two of them that listen again kairi's a complicate individual and felt that he was ready to be you know an alpha and reprove it's proving that maybe he's not quite bill for that so there's a Knicks fan it's certainly enticing and like really like but do you want to start drooling like the idea I don't know if I quite biased because of how you know increases not the right word but like we just seriously don't know what Kyrie is thinking right now just now obviously every indication everyone was pouring that Durant in New York is a done deal like Stephen ain't the only person Ric Bucher has been saying that right I will say that Durant's business manager rich Klieman who we've discussed previously yes is ramping up his publicity run right now and they're trying to do more things with him and put him out in front so reading to those TVs what you will about trying to continue to race his profile which will lead you to the idea of it being a you know they're directing of a major media markets and wanted to have his profile bigger in New York even though he's in the New York area so whatever X Y Z I guess you can like green to this stuff all you want and get really good conspiracy theories as a Knicks fan it's cool I still as a Knicks fan have a feeling that somehow it'll blow up spectacularly and be a complete disaster but yeah it's like it's kind of it's it's it's almost surreal right now to think that in roughly a month and a half like Knicks could be in the verge of landing durant and then possibly some other major awesome credible piece and depending what happens you know at the NBA Draft Lottery on Tuesday who even knows and then you can get into the scenarios two of the fun hypotheticals of depending on what drafts thought the next you're in because I would you if you get designer if you get John momentum whatever depending what slot your position and do you go off to Anthony Davis hard I like it I personally would I feel like what Davis in a mix uniform personals right like the idea of getting the idea of getting you know Kady neck and then Anthony Davis and then someone else yeah cuz you can slide another max guy like I take that over design and what the Knicks have and you know and blah blah blah but that's a lot of Knicks fans saying that you would trade zine you know another top draft pick is sacrilegious and they want the high flyer that the Knicks organizations never really had and you know the number one and see that that just has never been part of mix lore certainly for the last 25 30 years but again the bay for a different show and I different yeah they could possibly do that or they could trade for John Wall and as a standard Isiah Thomas Knicks would do will see no those days late and sabotaging stuff like Steve range all sound like you get word through your buddies and you log on and listen to Mike in the mad dog wave about Jose doesn't know the hell he's doing like those days seemingly are done for right now yeah but always that PTSD as long as oh
