walks up and starts talking to people and right there and then she has this big sword and she's coming here like she wants to hurt me like i'm sending people after i would never hurt you i've been sitting here i'll be crying about you and your baby what she said was true i guarantee you she was in her right mind she what she said was the truth but right now she's her mind she's walking around with that source she might be they might some type of mind control in her mind to flip her into another compartment so that she goes out tonight and kills somebody out apparently thinking they're after her because of her doing these videos because she thinks the videos are making the people come after her and that i'm coming after her so right now she's out there with a sword walking around ready to stab somebody okay seeing people thinking they're after her because of this larry won't let me go out and help her but mind control is so powerful but see if she goes out tonight and kills somebody or stab somebody she's in a mental institution that's what they're trying to do trying to get her right now because she didn't finish this she was here today too and then she decided not to go she decided she was scared to come and tell you about the giovanni family and all the other things she was going to say and then also she just got scared but we don't she's a wonderful person she's but right now she just came in here she's like a totally different person she came in with a sword at me like in my room i'm like what are you tired about this hurts so larry takes her and brings her home leaves her there right now freaking out seeing people that aren't there thinking people have to hurt with the sword it's right the second i don't know what to do let me go and help her but what if she stabs me or what if she commits a murder and i i don't i don't know what's my because i made her talk about stuff that she's never talked about before ever ever i thought it was simple i thought we almost pulled most of it out and it was the hard part was over i didn't realize what it would trigger but the mind control because you know how does it be my hit counter how can i have five hits and then three hits later and then zero hits later and then seven hits and then 49 hits can turn to 17 in other words my hit counter you can't make people 17 people watch my video you can't make it 12 people the next day can't impossible this is a lot of nature in other words my hit counter my mail has said that i've had 17 or 17 the same 17 ones that i haven't read for over a month now i'm not getting an email i don't know if anybody's writing to me or not but i can't see i can't believe that nobody's watching my videos or writing to me anymore it seems as far as i can tell nobody is but still that she was getting ready to um name she already knew right but she was going to come and tell in locations that she was getting ready to do that today and she said she didn't want to she's scared and so don't think that they didn't it didn't get back to them today or yes whatever i said don't think that it's not getting back to these people and they're going okay and the mind control they can like make a certain signal or a certain sound or something like because there's mind control operators and they have different personalities and people that are abused since the childhood so they are like experts some people can have like 30 40 50 a thousand different personalities with different names and hold everything that have no idea of the other just in one person there they've set these compartments so i know that this has been done to her and like she started to tell in the video that she never had to finish it nine nine years old was the first time they ever put her in an institution because she tried to tell her story and see and then you could put a psychiatric word when you're a kid and then that way when she gets older she has kids and they want her kids and she says no then they're gonna say she's crazy and they'll put her mental institution or whatever and she can't get her kids they legally get her kids and all rights powers authority everything over her kids just by having her you know an image when she wouldn't obey and do the horrible things that they wanted her to do and abuse the one that made her eat the poop all this then they would call the actual police and put her in straight jackets and it's just been a lot of time and so i can't just wear them straight jackets because they've done this like trinity we're in the trinity right now i

person goes out for three days and will do assassinations assassinations actual assassinations and three days later they don't remember that lost time they have no clue that they just went out murdered okay but they can program in this way by abusing them from the time their babies and children make compartments in their brain it's like the amnesia effect have you ever had a bad accident or something real bad happen we blacked out you don't remember it's our body's natural way of making us not have to relive such a horrible horror over and over and over again so it kind of has like a natural amnesia protection but these scientists and these the illuminatis and these dragons they've figured out how to do that splice it over more compartments more compartments more compartments and they have all these cindy is a victim she's out there right now ready she's going to kill she might kill somebody too i don't know what she's going to do but she came in here with the sword coming at

Jainism | Wikipedia audio article
Jainism traditionally known as Jain Dharma is an ancient Indian religion followers of Jainism are called Jane's a word derived from the Sanskrit word jina victory and cano ting the path of victory in crossing over life's stream of rebirths through an ethical and spiritual life Jane's trace their history through a succession of 24 victorious saviors and teachers known as tier thanked Aras with the first being rishabh Anitha who according to tradition lived millions of years ago and 24th being the Mahavira around 500 BCE Jane's believe that Jainism is an eternal Dharma with the tirthankaras guiding every cycle of the Jain cosmology the main religious premises of Jainism are ahimsa non-violence anekantavada many sightedness aparigraha non-attachment and asceticism Jain monastics renunciants and devout householders take five main vows known as Radha's outlined in their oldest surviving texts the a Karanga sutra ahimsa non-violence Satya truth Ostia not stealing brahmacarya celibacy or chastity and aparigraha non-attachment these principles have impacted Jain culture in many ways such as leading to a predominantly vegetarian lifestyle that avoids harm to animals in their life cycles Paras parappa Graha Javan ohm the function of souls is to help one another is the motto of Jainism namikawa mantra is the most common and basic prayer in Jainism Jainism has two major ancient sub traditions digambara x' and spat embarras and several smaller sub traditions that emerged in the second millennium CE II the digambara x' and spat embarras have different views on ascetic practices gender in which Jain texts can be considered canonical Jain mendicants are found in all Jain sub traditions with laypersons shravakas supporting the mendicants spiritual pursuits with resources Jainism has between 4 and 5 million followers with most Jane's residing in India outside India some of the largest Jain communities are present in Canada Europe Kenya the United Kingdom Hong Kong Suriname Fiji in the United States major Jain festivals include par you Shonda and - lashonna Mahaveer Jandy and Diwali pick main principles topic topic non-violence ahimsa topic the principle of ahimsa non-violence or non injury is a fundamental tenet of Jainism it believes that one must abandon all violent activity and without such a commitment to non-violence all religious behavior is worthless in jain theology it does not matter how correct or defensible the violence may be one must not kill any being and non-violence as one's highest religious duty Jain texts such as a Karanga Sutra and tattva the sutra state that one must renounce all killing of living beings whether tiny are large movable or immovable its theology teaches that one must neither kill another living being nor cause another to kill nor consent to any killing directly or indirectly furthermore Jainism emphasizes non-violence against all beings not only in action but also in speech and in thought it states that instead of hate or violence against anyone all living creatures must help each other violence negatively affects and destroys one as soul particularly when the violence is done with intent hate or carelessness or when one indirectly causes or consents to the killing of a human or non-human living being the idea of reverence for non-violence ahimsa is founded in Hindu and Buddhist canonical texts and it may have origins in more ancient Brahmanical vedic thoughts however no other indian religion has developed the non-violence doctrine and its implications on everyday life as has Jainism the theological basis of non-violence as the highest religious duty has been interpreted by some Jain scholars not to be driven by merit from giving or compassion to other creatures nor a duty to rescue all creatures but resulting from continual self-discipline a cleansing of the soul that leads to one s own spiritual development which ultimately affects one s salvation and release from rebirths causing injury to any being in any form creates bad karma which affects one s rebirth future well-being and suffering late medieval James scholars reexamine V ahimsa doctrine when one is faced with external threat or violence for example they justified violence by monks to protect nuns according to Dundas the Jain scholar Jinnah Dada Sri wrote during a time of Muslim destruction of temples and persecution that anybody engaged in a religious activity who was forced to fight and kill somebody would not lose any spiritual merit but instead attained deliverance however such examples in Jain texts that condone fighting and killing under certain circumstances are relatively rare topic many-sided reality anekantavada topic the second main principle of Jainism is anekantavada or anakin tattva a word derived from anaconda not one ended sided many sightedness or manifold nests and vada doctrine way the anekantavada doctrine states that truth and reality is complex and always has multiple aspects reality can be experienced but it is not possible to totally express it with language human attempts to communicate as Naya explained as partial expression of the truth language is not truth but a means and attempt to express truth from truth according to Mahavira language returns and not the other way round one can experience the truth of it taste but cannot fully Express that taste through language any attempts to express the experience as sigh at or valid in some respect but it remains a perhaps just one perspective incomplete in the same way spiritual truths are complex they have multiple aspects and language cannot express their plurality yet through effort and appropriate karma they can be experienced since reality as many cited the great error according to Jainism is ikan thha one-sidedness where some relative truth is treated as an absolute truth to the exclusion of others the anekantavada premise of the Jains is ancient as evidenced by its mention in buddhist texts such as the samanya fallow sutta the jain agamas suggest that Mahavira s approach to answering all metaphysical philosophical questions was a qualified yes sigh at these texts identify anekantavada doctrine to be one of the key differences between the teachings of the Mahavira and those of the Buddha the Buddha taught the middle way rejecting extremes of the answer it is or it is not two metaphysical questions the Mahavira in contrast taught his followers to accept both it is and it is not with perhaps qualification and with reconciliation to understand the absolute reality syadavada predication logic and nayavada perspective epistemology of Jainism expand on the concept of anekantavada syadavada recomm the expression of anaconda by prefixing the epithets I add to every phrase or expression describing the permanent being there is no Creator God in jainism existence has neither beginning nor end and the permanent being is conceptualized as Jeeva soul and a Jeeva matter within a dualistic and a canto vada framework according to Paul Dundas in contemporary times the anekantavada doctrine has been interpreted by many James as intending to promote a universal religious tolerance and a teaching of plurality and benign attitude to other ethical religious positions Dundas states this is problematic and amis reading of jain historical texts in Mahavira s teachings the many pointedness multiple perspective teachings of the Mahavira as a doctrine about the nature of absolute reality and human existence and it is sometimes called non absolutism doctrine however it is not a doctrine about tolerating or condoning activities such as sacrificing or killing animals for food nor violence against disbelievers or any other living being as perhaps right the five vowels for jain monks and nuns for example are strict requirements and there is no perhaps or that is just one perspective about them similarly since ancient times Jainism coexisted with Buddhism and Hinduism according to Dundas but Jainism was highly critical of the knowledge systems and ideologies of its rivals and vice versa topic non-attachment aparigraha topic the third main principle in Jainism as a pre Gras which means non attachment to worldly possessions for ascetics Jainism requires a vow of complete non possession of any property for Jain lay persons it recommends limited possession of property that has been honestly earned and giving excess property to charity according to nattu by shah aparigraha applies to both the material in the psychic material possessions refer to various forms of property psychic possessions refer to emotions likes and dislikes and attachments of any form unchecked attachment to possessions is said to result in direct harm to one's personality Jainism views attachments to material or emotional possessions as what leads to passions which in turn leads to violence according to the aparigraha principle a Jain monk or nun is expected to be homeless and family less with no emotional longings or attachments the ascetic is a wandering mendicant in the digambara tradition or resident mendicant in this venom bar a tradition in addition Jain texts mention that attachment to possessions paragrah ha is of two kinds attachment to internal possessions abhi antara paragraph and attachment to external possessions by a paragraph for internal possessions Jainism identifies four key passions of the mind cache iya anger pride ego deceitfulness and greed in addition to the four passions of the mind the remaining ten internal passions are wrong belief the three sex passions male sex passion female sex passion neuter sex passion and the six defects laughter like dislike sorrow fear disgust topic jain ethics and five valves topic Jainism teaches five ethical duties which it calls five vows these are called an of Radha's small vows for Jane lay persons and Maharaja's great vows for Jane mendicants for both its moral precepts preface that the Jane has access to a guru teacher counselor diva jina God doctrine and that the individual is free from five offences doubts about the faith indecisiveness about the truths of Jainism sincere desire for Jain teachings recognition of fellow Jane's and admiration for their spiritual pursuits such a person undertakes the following five vows of Jainism ahimsa intentional non-violence or non injury the first major vowed taken by James is to cause no harm to other human beings as well as all living beings particularly animals this is the highest ethical duty in Jainism and it applies not only to 1/s actions but demands that one be nonviolent in one s speech and thoughts Sadia truth this vow is to always speak the truth neither lie nor speak what is not true and do not encourage others or approve anyone who speaks an untruth ostia not stealing a Jain layperson should not take anything that is not willingly given additionally a Jain mendicant should ask for permission to take it if something is being given brahma chharia celibacy abstinence from sex and sensual pleasures as prescribed for jain monks and nuns for lay persons the vow means chastity faithfulness to one's partner aparigraha non possessiveness this includes non attachment to material and psychological possessions avoiding craving and greed Jain monks and nuns completely renounce property and social relations own nothing and are attached to no one topic practices topic topic asceticism topic of all the major Indian religions Jainism has had the strongest austerity driven ascetic tradition and it is an essential part of a mendicant spiritual pursuits ascetic life may include nakedness symbolizing non possession of even clothes fasting body mortification penance and other austerities in order to burn away past karma and stop producing new Karma both of which are believed in Jainism to be essential for reaching Siddha and moksha liberation from rebirth and salvation Jain texts like tat vaartha Sutra and oudarde jana sutra discuss ascetic austerities to great lengths and formulations six outer and six inner practices are most common and oft repeated in later Jain texts according to John Court outer austerities include complete fasting eating limited amounts eating restricted items abstaining from tasty foods mortifying the flesh and guarding the flesh avoiding anything that is a source of temptation inner austerities include expiation confession respecting and assisting mendicants studying meditation and ignoring bodily once in order to abandon the body lists of internal and external austerities in Jainism varies with the text in tradition asceticism as viewed as a means to control desires and a means to purify the Jeeva soul the tear thank car is of Jainism such as the Mahavira Varda mana set an example of leading an ascetic life by performing severe austerities for 12 years topic food and fasting topic the practice of non-violence towards all living beings has led to Jain culture being vegetarian while veganism is encouraged most Jane's practice lacto vegetarianism no eggs but dairy products permitted if no violence is used during the production Jain monks and nuns do not eat root vegetables such as potatoes onions and garlic because tiny organisms are injured when the plant is pulled up and because of bulb or tuber s ability to sprout is seen as characteristic of a higher living being Jane's fast on different occasions throughout the year particularly during festivals this practice is called oppa Vasa Topacio Radha according to sing this takes on various forms and may be practiced based on 1s ability some examples include digambara fasting for docile acts on a parven where a Jain layperson eats only one or two meals per day drinking only boiled water for 10 days or fasting completely on the first and last day of the festival with these practices the layperson mimics the practices of a Jain mendicant during the festival a similar practice is found amongst Vedam barrage aims on eight-day Perea sonda with samvatsara pratik ramana the fasting practice is believed to remove karma from one's soul and allow one to gain merit punya a one-day fast in Jain tradition lasts about 36 hours starting at sunset before the day of the fast and ending 48 minutes after the sunrise the day after among laypeople fasting is more commonly observed by women where it is believed that this shows her piety religious purity gains her and her family prestige leads to merit earning and helps ensure future well-being for her family some religious fasts are observed as a group where Jain women bonds socially and support each other long fasts are celebrated by friends and families with special ceremonies topic meditation topic Jainism considers meditation Diana a necessary practice but its goals are very different from those in Buddhism and Hinduism in Jainism meditation is concerned more with stopping karmic attachments and activity not as a means to transformational insights or self-realization in other Indian religions meditation in early Jain literature as a form of austerity and ascetic practice in Jainism while in late medieval era the practice adopted ideas from other Indian traditions according to Paul Dundas this lack of meditative practices in early Jain texts may be because substantial portions of ancient Jain texts were lost according to Padmanabha Jani sameoka is a practice of brief periods in meditation in Jainism that is a part of six of Radha ritual restraint the goal of sama Yoga is to achieve equanimity and it is the second six of Radha thus a mihika ritual is practiced at least three times a day by mendicants while a layperson includes it with other ritual practices such as puja in a jain temple in doing charity work according to Johnson as well as Janie sama Iike connotes more than meditation and for a jain householder as the voluntary ritual practice of assuming temporary ascetic status the digambara jain scholar Kunti Kunda in his profit connoisseur estates that a Jain mendicant should meditate on I the pure self anyone who considers his body or possessions as I am this this is mine is on the wrong road while one who meditates thinking the antithesis in I am NOT others they are not mine I am one knowledge is on the right road to meditating on the soul the pure self you topic rituals in worship topic there are many rituals in Jainism various sects according to Dundas the ritualistic lay path amongst venom barrage aims us heavily imbued with ascetic values where the rituals either Revere or celebrate the ascetic life of tyr thank Aras or mendicants or progressively get closer to psychologically and physically living ever more like an ascetic the ultimate ritual is sallekhana a religious death through ascetic abandonment of food and drinks the digambara Jane's follow the same theme but the details differ from sweat embarrassed and according to Dundas the life cycle and religious rituals are closer to the liturgy found among Hindu traditions the overlap in Jain and Hindu rituals is largely in the lifecycle rites of passage rituals according to Padmanabha Jani and likely one that developed over time because Jane's and Hindu societies overlapped and rituals were viewed as necessary in secular ceremonies Jane's do not believe in a creator god but do ritually worship numerous deities the Gina's are prominent in a large focus of this ritualism but they are not the only Deva in Jainism Aegina as deva is not an avatar incarnation in Jainism but the highest state of omniscience that an ascetic tier thank ara achieved out of the twenty-four tier thank Aras Jain devotional worship is predominantly addressed to four Mahavira parsh vanitha naminé atha and Rishabh Anitha among the nine tier thank our Saints devotional worship is common for baahubali among the digambara some of Jana rituals remember the five life events of the tirthankaras called the Panch kala naka our rituals such as the Panch kala naka pratishta mehat Sava Panchala naka puja and snatcher puja the basic worship ritual practiced by James as darsana seeing of Deva which includes Geena or other yaksas gods and goddesses such as Brahma Deva 52 Vera's padmavati Ambika and sixteen Vidya Devas sarasvati Lakshmi others the Terrapin d-sub tradition of digambara z' do not worship many of the deities popular among mainstream vegan bars and they limit their ritual worship to tear thanked Aris the worship ritual is called the Deva puja is found in all Jaina sub traditions which share common features typically the Jaina layperson enters the temple inner sanctum in simple clothing and bare feet with a plate filled with offerings bows down says the namaskara completes his or her litany and prayers sometimes is assisted by the temple priest leaves the offerings and then departs Jane practices include performing abhisheka ceremonial baths of the images some Jain sects employ a Poojari also called you puja for rituals who may be a non Jain a Hindu to perform special rituals and other priestly duties at the temple more elaborate worship includes ritual offerings such as rice fresh and dry fruits flowers coconut sweets and money some may light up a lamp with camphor and make auspicious marks with sandalwood paste devotees also recite Jain texts particularly the life stories of the tear thanked Aras the traditional Jane's like Buddhists and Hindus believe in the efficacy of mantras and that certain sounds and words are inherently auspicious powerful and spiritual the most famous of the mantras broadly accepted in various sects of Jainism is the five homage panca namaskara mantra which is believed to be eternal in existence since the first Ford makers time the medieval era Jain worship practices according to Ellen Gough also developed tantric diagrams of the regime in Delaware the tirthankaras are portrayed the tantric traditions within Jainism use mantra and rituals that are believed to accrue merit for rebirth realms topic festivals topic jain's celebrate many annual festivals many of the major festivals in jainism fall in and around the coma soon Sanskrit chatter masa period of the calendar it is the four month monsoon period when the jain ascetics are mandated to remain in residence at one place in the Jain tradition rather than traveling or going around Indian villages and towns for religion Reformation but never staying in one place for more than a month the Kumasi period allows the four orders of the jain community to be together and participate in the festivities the most important annual Jain festival is called the par you shantabai svet embarrass and docile action a parva by the digambara s' it is celebrated from the 12th day of waning moon in the traditional Looney solar month of Bhadrapada in the Indian calendar this typically falls in August or September of the Gregorian calendar it lasts eight days for svet embarras and ten days among the deagle bars it is a time when laypeople fast and pray the five vows are emphasized during this time Sveta Mara's recite the Kalpa sutras while digambara has read their own texts the festival is an occasion where James make active effort to stop cruelty towards other life-forms freeing animals in captivity and preventing slaughter of animals the last day involves a focused prayer meditation session known as Sam that sari Jane's consider this as a day of atonement granting forgiveness to others seeking forgiveness from all living beings physically or mentally asking for forgiveness and resolving to treat everyone in the world as friends forgiveness is asked by saying Mahamadou Kadhim or comic calm na to others this means if I have offended you in any way knowingly or unknowingly in thought word or action then I seek your forgiveness the literal meaning of par u Shawna's abiding or coming together Mahaveer Jandy celebrates the birth of Mahavira it is celebrated on the 13th day of the loonie solar month of chaitra in the traditional indian calendar this typically falls in March or April of the Gregorian calendar the festivities include visiting Jain temples pilgrimages to shrines reading Jain texts and processions of maha vir by the community at his legendary birthplace of Kunda gramma in bihar north of Patna special events are held by Jane's diwali is observed by Jane's as the anniversary of mahavira's attainment of moksha the Hindu festival of Diwali is also celebrated on the same date Kartika Amavasya Jain temples homes offices and shops are decorated with lights India's small oil lamps the lights are symbolic of knowledge or removal of ignorance sweets are often distributed on Diwali morning Nirvana ladoo is offered after praying to Mahavira in all Jain temples across the world the Jain new year starts right after Diwali some other festivals celebrated by James are Akshaya Tritiya and Raksha Bandhan similar to those in the Hindu communities topic monasticism topic jainism monastic organization as a part of Jain society called sang a saying has a four-fold order or quatre vid cycle sang this consists of sadhu male ascetics Muni sadhvi female ascetics are you gonna baka laymen and serve iike lay woman the latter to support the ascetics and their monastic organizations called gasher Sam Uday in autonomous regional Jain congregations Digambar tradition has two main monastic orders mullah sang and the cash the same both led by Baracus other notable monastic orders include the digambara terebinth which emerged in the 17th century Sveta Mara's have their own sayings but unlike digambara z' which have had predominantly sadhu sanga male monastic organisations they have major sadhu and sadhvi Sanks monks and nuns according to Sveta barrage Ain texts from Kalpa sutras onwards it's monastic community has had more sod vus than sadhus female than male mendicants in top akash of the modern era the ratio of sod Vista sadhus nuns to monks is about 3.5 to 1 in contrast to Sveta Mara the digambara sect monastic community has been predominantly male in the digambara tradition a male human being is considered closest to the apex with the potential to achieve his soul s liberation from rebirths through asceticism women must gain karmic merit to be reborn as man and only then can they achieve spiritual liberation in the digambara sect of Jainism the svet embarras disagree with the digambara s' believing that women can also achieve liberation from samsara through ascetic practices the jain monastic organization shares many parallels with those found in Buddhist and Brahmanical Hindu monasticism they all have similar rules hierarchical structure practices such as not travelling during the four-month monsoon season and celibacy according to William Johnston this is not likely from mutual borrowing of ideas but because these traditions emerged from the same ancient Indian monastic traditions that preceded the Buddha and the Mahavira there are some differences for example the Jay and hindu monastic community has been traditionally more mobile and had an itinerant lifestyle while buddhist monks have favored belonging to a sangha monastery and staying in its premises Buddhist monastic rules forbid a monk to go outside without wearing the Sangha as distinctive ruddy robe or to use wooden bowls in contrast Jain monastic rules have either required no clothes digambara or whites vedam bara and the use of wooden or empty gourd as the begging bowl the Jain monastic rules have encouraged the use of mouth cover as well as a broom to gently remove any insect that comes in their path topic supplementary vows in sallekhana topic jainism also prescribes seven supplementary vows which include three guna virata's merit valves and four six of Radha's the sallekhana or Santara vow is a religious death ritual vow observed at the end of life historically by jain monks and nuns but rare in the modern age in this vow there is voluntary and gradual reduction of food and liquid intake to end one s life by choice and with dispassion in Jainism this is believed to reduce negative karma that affects a soul s future rebirths topic traditions insects topic topic digambara sanphet embarrass topic the Jain community is divided into two major denominations digambara and svet Umbra monks of the digambara Skyclad tradition do not wear clothes female monastics of the digambara sect wear unstitched plain white sarees and are referred to as arya COS edinburgh white clad monastics on the other hand wear seamless white clothes during chandragupta maurya's rain Jain tradition states that acharya Bhadra ba who predicted a 12 year long famine and moved to Karnataka with his disciples Saint EULA Bhadra a pupil of Acharya Bhadra ba who stayed in Magadha later when followers of acharya Bhadra ba who returned they found those who had remained at meghana had started wearing white clothes which was unacceptable to the others who remain naked this is how Jane's believe that digambara and svet embarrass schism began with the former being naked while the latter wore white clothes digambara saw this is being opposed to the Jain tenets which according to them required having no possessions including clothes aparigraha in the 5th century CE II the Council of the lobby was organized by sveta Mara which digambara did not attend at the council thus padam bara adopted the texts they had preserved as canonical scriptures which digambara have ever since rejected this council solidified the historic schism between these two major traditions of Jainism the earliest record of digambara beliefs is contained in the Procrit siddhappa Hooda of Conda kunda other than rejecting or accepting different ancient Jain texts digambara since madame bara differ in other significant ways such as fete embarras trace their practices and dress code to the teachings of Parchman antha the 23rd tier thank era which they believed taught only for restraints a claim scholars say are confirmed by the ancient Buddhist texts that discuss Jaina monastic life Mahavira taught five vows which digambara follow the digambara sect disagrees with the sveta mara interpretations and reject the theory of difference in partial Nauta and mahavira's teachings digambara is believed that both partial nota and Mahavira remained unmarried whereas Fadem bara believed the 23rd and 24th did indeed marry according to this vedam bar aversion partially married Prabhavati and Mahavira married Yashoda who bore him a daughter named Priya darshana the two sexes also differ on the origin of Trishula Mahavira s mother as well as the details of tear thank Cara s biographies such as how many auspicious dreams their mothers had when they were in the wombs digambara believed Rishabha Vasa Padilla and Amina were the three tier thang Cara's who reached omniscience while in sitting posture and other tirthankaras were in standing ascetic posture in contrast svet embarras believe it was Rishabha nemi and

excavations at mathura revealed jane's statues from the time of the Kushan Empire C first century CE II tear thang are represented without clothes and monks with cloth wrapped around the left arm are identified as the Artefill akka half clothed mentioned in texts the yapanese believed to have originated from the Artefill akka followed digambara nudity along with several svet Amparo beliefs topic other sub traditions topic both of the major Jain traditions evolved into sub traditions over time for example the devotional worship traditions of spaten bara are referred to as murdie puja cos those who live in and around jain temples became deriv Ozzy or Mandira Margie those who avoid temples and pursue their spirituality at a designated monastic meeting place came to be known as stone acaba see about the 18th century the sveta Mara and digambara tradition saw an emergence of separate terrapin thei movements some scholars such as malva Nia state that these ideas entered Jainism from an influence of Islam while others such as Dundas state that these ideas debates and movements can be traced in more ancient texts than the start of Islam in the modern era according to flugel new Jaina religious movements that are primarily devotional form of Jainism have developed which resemble jain mahayana style devotional ism topic gender and spiritual liberation topic a male human being is considered closest to the apex with the potential to achieve liberation particularly through asceticism in the digambara traditional belief women must gain karmic merit to be reborn as man and only then can they achieve spiritual liberation however this view has been historically debated within Jainism and different Jaina sects have expressed different views particularly the svet embarass sect that believes that women too can achieve spiritual liberation from rebirths in samsara thus fed embarras state the 19th tier thank karim allen ottawa's female however digambara reject this and worship Mallon a Sam ale topic beliefs in philosophy topic topic dravya substance topic the dravya and jainism are fundamental entities called astha kya literally collection that exists they are believed to be eternal and the ontological building blocks that constitute and explain all existence whether perceived or not according to this venom bar a tradition of Jainism there are five eternal substances in existence soul Jeeva mater Padula space Akasha motion Dharma and rest a dharma to this list of five the digambara jain tradition adds time kala as the sixth eternal substance in both traditions the substance of space is conceptualized as world space loca kasha and non world space ology Akasha further both soul and matter are considered as active ontological substances while the rest are inactive another categorization found in Jain philosophy as Jeeva anda Jeeva the latter being all dravya that is not Jeeva topic Jeeva soul a Jeeva non soul topic jiva means soul in Jainism and is also called gavotte man it is a core concept in the fundamental focus of the Jain theology the soul is believed to be eternal and a substance that undergoes constant modifications in every life after every rebirth of a living being Jeeva consists of pure consciousness in the Jain thought has an eight free will that causes it to act but is believed to be intangible and formless it is the soul that experiences existence and gains knowledge not mind nor body both believed to a heap of matter Jain philosophy further believes that the soul is the mechanism of rebirth and karma accumulation it is the same size in all living beings such as a human being a tiny insect and a large elephant Jeeva is everywhere filling and infused in every miniscule part of the entire loca realm of existence according to Jainism the soul has the potential to reach omniscience and eternal bliss and end the cycles of rebirth and associated suffering which is the goal of jain spirituality the Jeeva is believed to rely on other dravya to function the Jain philosophy completely separates body matter from the soul consciousness Souls reside in bodies and journey endlessly through samsara that is realms of existence through cycles of rebirth Sandra deaths jivas are believed to be of two types stationary and mobile illustration of the former are plant while moving jiva's include examples such as human beings animals gods hell beings and insects jiva's are further classified in jain philosophy by a signed number of senses which range from one sensory organ to five sensory organs inert world such as air fire or clod of dirt considered nonsense 8 in contemporary science are asserted in historic texts of Jainism to be living in with sensory powers a Jeeva consists of everything other than Jeeva life processes such as breath means of knowledge such as language all emotional and biological experiences such as pleasure and pain are all believed in Jainism to be made of Padula matter these interact with tattva or reality to create bind destroy or unbind karma particles to the soul according to dundas dharma as a metaphysical substance in Jane philosophy may be understood as that which carries instead of the literal sense of ordinary physical motion thus Dharma includes all verbal and mental activity that contribute to karma and purification of the soul topic tattva reality topic tattva connotes reality truth in jain philosophy and as the framework for salvation according to digambara jane's there are seven tatvas while seven bar is believed in ninth Atmos the sentient Jeeva soul the in sentient a Jeeva the karmic influx Ostrava to the soul good karma punya merits found in the tattva theory of Safed amparo but not of digambara z' bad karma Papa negatives found in the tattva theory of sweatin bara but not of digambara z' the bondage bandha of karmic particles to the soul thereby causing its change which cumulatively determines the future reverse the stoppage Sambora of karmic influx the dissociation and wiping away of past karmic particles nirjara from the soul the liberation moksha the true insight in jain philosophy is considered as faith in the Tattvas the spiritual goal in Jainism is to reach moksha for ascetics but for most Jain lay persons and ascetics it is to accumulate good karma that leads to better rebirth in a step closer to liberation topic Solan Karma topic according to Jainism the existence of a bound and ever-changing soul is a self-evident truth an axiom which does not need to be proven there are numerous souls but every one of them has three qualities guna consciousness caitanya most important quality of soul bliss suka and vibrational energy Maria the vibration draws karmic particles to the soul and creates bondages but is also what adds merit or demerit to the soul Karma like in other Indian religions connotes in Jainism the universal cause-and-effect law however it is envisioned as a material substance subtle matter that can bind to the soul travel with the soul substance in bound form between rebirths and affect the suffering and happiness experienced by the Jeeva in the locus karma is also believed to obscure and obstruct the innate nature and striving of the soul as well as its spiritual potential in the next rebirth the relationship between the soul and karma states Padmanabha Jani can be explained with the analogy of gold like gold is always found mixed with impurities in its original state Jainism holds that the soul is not pure at its origin but has always impure and defiled like natural gold one can exert effort and purify gold similarly Jainism states that the defiled soul can be purified by proper refining methodology karma either defiles the soul further or refines it to a cleaner state and this affects future reverse karma is thus an efficient cause namida in jain philosophy but not the material cause oopah denna the soul is believed to be the material cause tear thank our anima karma is a special type of karma bondage of which raises a soul to the supreme status of a Tirthankara Jain text state that souls exist as clothed with material bodies where it entirely fills up the body there are five types of bodies in the Jaina thought earthly eg most humans animals and plants metamorphic eg gods hell beings find matter some animals and a few humans who can morph because of their perfections transference type eg good and pure substance is realized by ascetics fiery eg heat that transforms or digests food and karmic the substrate where the karmic particles reside and which make the soul changing Jain philosophy further divides the earthly body by symmetry number of sensory organs vitality is functional capabilities and whether one body hosts one soul or one body hosts many every living being has one two five senses three ballast power of body language and mind respiration inhalation and exhalation and life duration all living beings in every realm including the gods and hell beings accrue and destroy eight types of karma according to the elaborate theories in Jain texts elaborate descriptions of the shape and function of the physical and metaphysical universe and its constituents are also provided in the Jain texts all of these elaborate theories attempt to illustrate and consistently explain the Jain karma theory in a deeply moral framework much like Buddhism and Hinduism but with significant differences in the details and assumptions topic samsara topic the conceptual framework of the samsara doctrine differs between the Jainism traditions and other Indian religions for instance in Jaina traditions soul Jeeva is accepted as a truth as as assumed in the Hindu traditions it is not assumed in the Buddhist traditions however samsara or the cycle of rebirth has a definite beginning and end in Jainism the Jaina theosophy unlike Hindu and Buddhist theosophy asserts that each soul passes through 8,400,000 birth situations as they circle through samsara as the soul cycles states Padmanabha Jani Jainism traditions believe that it goes through five types of bodies earth bodies water bodies fire bodies air bodies and vegetable lives with all human and non-human activities such as rainfall agriculture eating and even breathing minuscule living beings are taking birth or dying their souls are believed to be constantly changing bodies perturbing harming or killing any life-form including any human being is considered a sin in Jainism with negative karmic effects souls begin their journey in a primordial state and exist in a state of consciousness continuum that is constantly evolving through samsara some evolve to a higher state some regress asserts the Jaina theory a movement that is driven by the Karma further Jaina traditions believe that there exists a BA via incapable or a class of souls that can never attain moksha liberation the Oba Diah state of soul is entered after an intentional and shockingly evil act Jainism considers souls is pluralistic each in a karma samsara cycle and is not subscribed to Advaita style not to non-dualism of Hinduism or adviye style non-dualism of Buddhism a liberated soul in Jainism as one who has gone beyond samsara is at the apex is omniscient remains there eternally and is known as a Siddha topic cosmology topic Jain texts propound that the universe consists of many eternal locust realms of existence as in Buddhism and Hinduism Jain cosmology believes both time and the universe are eternal without beginning and end and that the universe is transient impermanent in attributes at the same time the universe body matter and time are considered in jain philosophy as separate from the soul Jeeva or Javad men their interaction explains life living death and rebirth according to the Jain texts the universe is divided into three parts the upper middle and lower worlds called respectively vilaça madhya loca and ad Aloka as with the realms of existence Escala time is without beginning and eternal the cosmic Wheel of Time called Kalachakra rotates ceaselessly according to Jain texts in this part of the universe there are six periods of time within to ian's era and in the first eon the universe generates and in the next it degenerates thus the worldly cycle of time is divided into two parts or half cycles at sarpy knee ascending and a Vasser peeny descending at sarpy knee is a period of progressive prosperity where happiness increases while a vast rapini is a period of increasing sorrow and immorality according to Jane cosmology it is currently the fifth era of a Vasser peeny half time cycle of degeneration the present age is one of sorrow and misery of religious decline where the height and shape of living beings shrink Jane thought holds that after the sixth era the universe will be reawakened in the new cycle in the start of utz our pers according to Jain texts 63 illustrious beings called solid copper oozes are born on this earth in every do kama sukima era the jain universal history is a compilation of the deeds of these illustrious persons they comprised 2040 rancorous 12 chakra vardhan's nine balabhadra nine mariana and nine protein ariana a Chakravarti as an emperor of the world and Lord of the material realm though he possesses worldly power he often finds his ambitions dwarfed by the vastness of the cosmos Jane Puranas give a list of twelve chakra vardhan's Universal monarchs they are golden in complexion one of the chakra vardhan's mentioned in Jain scriptures as Bharata chakravartin Jain texts like Hera vamsa purana and Hindu texts like Vishnu Purana state that Indian subcontinent came to be known as bharata-varsa in his memory there are nine sets of balabhadra narayana and Preity Mariana the balabhadra and Mariana are brothers balabhadra are nonviolent heroes narayana are violent heroes and Preity Narayan of the villains according to the legends the narayana ultimately killed a preteen Orianna of the nine balabhadra eight attained liberation and the last goes to heaven on death the narayana go to hell because of their violent exploits even if these were intended to uphold righteousness Jain cosmology divides the worldly cycle of time into two parts a Vasser be me a nut sarpy me according to Jane belief in every half cycle of time 2040 r thang cars are born in the human realm to discover and teach the Jain doctrine appropriate for that era the word tier thank our assigment eartha which means affordable passage across a-c the tier thank our is showed the affordable path across the sea of interminable births and deaths Rishabh Anitha is said to be the first tier thank era of the present half cycle of a Sur peeny Mahavira 6th century BC is revered as the 24th tier thank era of a vast rapini Jain texts explain that Jainism has always existed and will always exist in Jainism perfect souls with the body are called arahant Victor's and perfect souls without the body are called sidess liberated Souls you topic god topic according to Jainism the universe was never created nor will it ever cease to exist it is independent and self-sufficient does not require a creator nor any superior power to govern it nor a judge nor destroyer in this belief it is distinct from the monotheistic Abrahamic religions it is similar to Buddhism it shares premises with the non-theistic part of the spectrum of diverse beliefs found in different traditions within Hindu philosophy and distinct from theistic Hindu traditions Jain texts reject the idea of a creator ruler or destroyer God and postulate an eternal universe however Jainism believes in the world of gods and Hell beings who are born and who died to be reborn like living beings in the earthly realm of existence those souls who live in the body of the God do so because of their positive karma they have a metamorphic body that as they are believed in Jain thought to be able to change their body at will the gods live a life of happiness fun and frolic whose wishes are automatically fulfilled they also possess a more transcendent knowledge about material things and can anticipate events in the human realms however once they're past karmic merit is exhausted the souls leave the god body and are reborn again as humans animals or other beings topic epistemology topic jain philosophy accepts three reliable means of knowledge pramana it holds that correct knowledge is based on perception projects ax inference on amana and testimony sabda or the word of scriptures these ideas are elaborated in Jain texts such as tat vaartha Sutra Parvathi Nosara Nandi and a new yoga vorenii some Jain texts at analogy oopah mana as the fourth reliable means in a manner similar to epistemological theories found in other Indian religions in Jainism jnana knowledge is said to be of five kinds kavali jnana omniscience shroo - jane Jana scriptural knowledge Maddy Jane Jana sensory knowledge Avadi Jain Jana clairvoyance and mana progeny onna telepathy according to the Jain texts at vaartha sutra the first two are indirect knowledge in the remaining three are direct knowledge salvation liberation topic according to Jainism

samyak jnana correct knowledge knowledge of the Tattvas without any doubt or misapprehension samyak charitra correct conduct behavior consistent with the 5000 texts often add samyak tap correct asceticism as the fourth jewel thereby emphasizing their belief in ascetic practices as the means to liberation moksha the four jewels of Orthodox Jain ideology are called moksha mark according to Jain texts the liberated pure soul Siddha goes up to the summit of universe citta Sheila and dwells there in eternal bliss topic scriptures and texts topic jain's scriptures are called agamas they are believed to have been verbally transmitted by the oral tradition from one generation to the next much like the ancient Buddhist and Hindu texts the Jain tradition believes that their religion is eternal and the teachings of their first tear thank our rishabh Anitha were their scriptures millions of years ago the mythology states that the tear thank Cara taught in a divine preaching hall called samovar Serena which were heard by the gods the ascetics and laypersons the discourse delivered is called shred jnana and comprises eleven angers and fourteen Pervis the discourse is remembered and transmitted by the gana doris chief disciples and is composed of twelve angus departments it is symbolically represented by a tree with twelve branches according to the Jain tradition and Arana worthy one speaks meaning that is then converted into Sutra sutta by his disciples and from such sutras emerged the doctrine the creation and transmission of the a gamma as the work of disciples in Jainism these texts historically for Jane's have represented the truths uttered by their tear thanked Aris particularly the Mahavira in every cycle of jain cosmology 20:40 r thank eras appear and so did the Jain Scriptures for that era the spoken scriptural language is believed to be our demagogy by the svet embarras Eanes and a form of sonic resonance by the digambara Jains these then become coded into duval asanga Ghani padishah twelve limbed baskets by disciples but transmitted orally in the 980 of the year after mahavira's death tilde 5th century CE II the texts were written down for the first time by the Council of the lobby the sveta bar is believed that they have the original Jain scriptures thus Vedam bar belief is denied by the digambara s' who instead believe the scriptures were lost thus venom bar is state that their collection of 45 works represent a continuous tradition though they accept that their collection is also incomplete because of a law Stanga texts and for lost purva texts the digambara sect of Jainism believes that acharya buddha bali was the last ascetic who had partial knowledge of the original canon according to them digambara acharya is recreated the oldest known digambara jain texts including the foreign new yoga according to von Glaceon bara texts partially agree with the enumerations and works of olders fed in vara texts but in many cases there are also gross differences between the texts of the two major Jain traditions thus venom bara consider their 45 text collection as canonical the Deegan bar is created a secondary canon between 600 and 900 seee compiling it into four groups history cosmography philosophy and ethics this four set collection is called the four vedas by the digambara z' the most popular and influential texts of Jainism have been its non canonical literature of these the Kalpa sutras are particularly popular amongst vet embarrass which they attribute to Bhadra ba who see 300 BCE this ancient scholar is revered in the digambara tradition and they believe he led their migration into the ancient south karnataka region and created their tradition Sveta Mara's disagree and they believe that Bhadra ba who moved to Nepal not into peninsular India both traditions however consider his knee react ease and samhitas as important texts the earliest surviving Sanskrit texts by Yuma Swati called the tat vaartha Sutra is considered authoritative Jain philosophy texts by all traditions of Jainism his text has the same importance in Jainism as vedanta-sutra xin yoga sutras have in hinduism in the digambara tradition the text written by Kondo kunda are highly revered and have been historically influential other important Jain texts include samaya sera Ratnakar and ezra vaca kara and Nia Messara topic influence on Indian literature topic parts of the Sangam literature in Tamil are attributed to Jaina authors the authenticity and interpolations are controversial because the Sangam literature presents Hindu ideas some scholars state that the Jain portions of the Sangam literature were added about or after the 8th century CE II and they are not the ancient layer Tamil Jain texts such as the so vaca cintamani analogy are are credited to digambara jain authors these texts have seen interpolations and revisions for example it is generally accepted now that the jain nun kandi inserted a 445 verse poem into civic ascent Amani in the 12th century the Tamil Jain literature according to Dundas has been lovingly studied and commented upon for centuries by Hindus as well as Jane's the themes of two of the Tamil epics including the sila pada chram have an embedded influence of Jainism Jain scholars also contributed to Kannada literature the digambara jain texts in karnataka are unusual in that they were written under the patronage of kings and regional aristocrats these Jain texts describe warrior violence and martial valour as equivalent to a fully committed Jain ascetic they thus set aside the religious premise of absolute non-violence possibly reflecting an effort to synchronize various doctrines and beliefs found in Hinduism and Jainism Jain manuscript libraries called bandura's inside Jain temples are the oldest surviving in India Jain libraries including the Sveta Mubarak elections at patent Gujarat and jaisalmer rajasthan as well as the digambara collections in karnataka temples have a large number of well-preserved manuscripts the manuscripts in the Jain libraries include Jaina literature as well as Hindu and Buddhist texts almost all their texts have been dated to about or after the 11th century CE II the largest and most valuable libraries are found in the thar desert hidden in the underground vaults of jain temples these collections have witnessed insect damage and only a small portion of these manuscripts have been published and studied by scholars topic comparison with Buddhism and Hinduism topic jainism differs from both Buddhism and Hinduism in its ontological premises all of them believe in impermanence but Buddhism incorporates amongst other things the premise of enade' non-self no eternal self or soul Hinduism incorporates the premise of an eternal unchanging Atman self soul while Jainism incorporates the premises of a Jeeva self soul that is both eternal and changing in Jaina thought there are infinite eternal jiva's predominantly all of which are in their cycles of rebirth and a few who have liberated themselves through an ascetic life and become sidess a perfect one in contrast to Jainism Hindu philosophies Express a spectrum of views ranging from non-dualism where all souls are identical as Brahman and posited as interconnected one - dualism where souls are same and have Brahman nature but are different from Brahman and two other ideas further in Hindu thought Jainism style asceticism as not emphasized rather liberation as achievable through alternate paths such as jnana yoga karma yoga and bhakti yoga while both Hinduism and Jainism believe soul exists to be a self-evident truth most Hindu systems consider it to be eternally present infinite and the constant vibhu but some Hindu scholars proposed soul to be atomic the Hindu thought generally discusses atman and brahman through a monistic or dualistic framework in contrast the Jaina thought denies the Hindu metaphysical concept of Brahman and Jain philosophy considers the soul to be ever-changing and bound to the body or matter for each lifetime thereby having a finite size that infuses the entire body of a living being some early colonial scholars stated that Jainism like Buddhism was in part a rejection of the caste system in Hinduism later scholars such as Gombrich state that this notion is an error for which mainly Western authors are responsible a caste system has been a historic part of Jain society according to Vela sadden it's an game caste system as a universal feature of the Jaina community and the focus of Jainism has been the spiritual liberation of the individual rather than social reforms according to pedometer the eighth century digambara scholar Jena Sina stated that Jane King Bharata the son of first-tier thanked R&M Rishabh anetha invented the caste system by performing the ahimsa non-violence test with Jane Brahmins being those who followed the non-violence pre set all three religions share concepts and doctrines such as karma and rebirth and have similar ritual festival grammar mythology's and monastic traditions they do not believe in eternal heaven or hell or Judgment Day Jainism like Buddhism and Hinduism grants the freedom to choose beliefs such as in gods or no gods agree or disagree with core teachings participate or not participate in prayers rituals and festivals they all consider ethical values such as non-violence to be important and linked suffering to craving individual's actions intents and karma and beliefs spirituality as a means to enlighten peace bliss and eternal liberation moksha Jainism is similar to Buddhism in epistemically rejecting the Vedas in the Hindu metaphysical concept for reality called Brahman Jainism and Hinduism however both believe soul exists as a self-evident truth and in their historic theology and practice have been more similar than with Buddhism Jane's and Hindus have frequently intermarried over their history particularly in northern central and western regions of India topic art and architecture topic jainism has contributed significantly to Indian art and architecture Jain arts depict life legends of tear thang era or other

Aras were mythical figures these figures were supposed to have lived more than 85,000 years ago they were five two hundred times taller than average human beings and lived for thousands of years the 23rd tier thank ara Parshin atha is generally accepted to be based on an ancient historic human being of uncertain dates possibly eighth 7th century BCE jane's scholars have argued that connected the indus valley civilization to their religion but such claims are highly speculative and have not been accepted by most scholars in absence of concrete data Jainism like Buddhism is one of the sramana traditions of ancient India those that rejected the Vedas and developed their own scriptures there is inscriptional evidence for the presence of jain monks in south india by the 2nd or 1st centuries b.c an archaeological evidence of jain monks in Saurashtra in gujarat by the 2nd century ce e statues of Jain Tirthankara have been found dating back to 2nd century BC topic political history topic information regarding the political history of jainism is uncertain in fragmentary Jane's consider the king bimbisara C 558 to 491 BCE ajatashatru C 492 to 460 BCE and you Dan C 460 to 440 BCE of the haeryung cadena ste as a patron of Jainism Jain tradition states that Chandragupta Maurya 322 to 298 BCE the founder of the Mauryan Empire and grandfather of Ashoka became a monk and disciple of jain ascetic Bhadra ba who during later part of his life according to historians Chandragupta s story appears in various versions in Buddhist Jain and Hindu texts broadly Chandragupta was born into a humble family abandoned raised as a son by another family then with the training and counsel of Chanakya of arthashastra fame ultimately built one of the largest empires in ancient India according to Jane history late in his life Chandragupta renounced the Empire he built and handed over his power to his son became a Jaina monk and headed to meditate and pursue spirituality in the Deccan region under the Jaina teacher Bhadra ba who at shravanabelagola their state Jain texts he died by fasting a Jaina ascetic method of ending 1s life by choice Salim Khan of Radha the third century BCE emperor Ashoka in his pillar edicts mentioned several ancient Indian religious groups including the and is jeanna according to another Jain legend King sallow the Honda of the late first century CE II was a patron of Jainism as were many others in the early centuries of the 1st millennium CE II but von glaze map states that the historic city of these stories is difficult to establish archaeological evidence suggests that Mathura was an important Jain center between the 2nd century BCE in the 5th century CE II inscriptions from the 1st and 2nd century CE II showed that the schism between digambara and sveta mara had already taken place king harsha Vedanta of the 7th century grew up in Shaivism following his family but he championed Jainism boo and all traditions of Hinduism King AMA of the eighth century converted to Jainism and the Jain of pilgrimage tradition was well established in his era Malhar aha the founder of chalukya dynasty constructed a Jain temple even though he was not a Jain in the second half of the first century CE e Hindu King sponsored and helped build major Jaina cave temples for example the Hindu Rashtra kuta dynasty started the early group of jain temples and the Yadava dynasty built many of the middle and later jane group of temples at the ellora caves between 700 and 1,000 c/e topic interaction with other religions topic Mahavira and buddha are generally accepted as contemporaries circa 5th century BCE the interaction between Jainism and Buddhism began with the Buddha Buddhist texts refer to Mahavira as nigantha nada para beyond the times of the Mahavira and the buddha the two ascetics ramana seeker religions competed for followers as well as the merchant trade networks that sustain them their mutual interaction along with those of Hindu traditions have been significant in some cases the titles of the Buddhist and Jaina texts are the same or similar but present different doctrines royal patronage has been a key factor in the growth as well as the decline of Jainism the Pallavi King Mahendra vermin the first 600 to 630 seee converted from Jainism to shaivism under the influence of a par his work Madhavi Lhasa prat asana ridicules certain Shiva sects and the Buddhists and also expresses contempt towards Jane ascetics sambandar converted the contemporary Pandya cling to Shaivism during the 11th century Basava a

easily defeat the Hindu deities such as Vishnu or Rama and Sita who come to pay respect to Aegina at a major Jain pilgrimage site such as mounts at Ron according to a shaivite legend an alleged massacre of 8,000 Jain monks happened in the seventh century which has claimed for the first time in an 11th century tamil language text of NAMM beyond our nambian sampan tar this event is considered doubtful because it is not mentioned in texts of camp and tar nor any other Hindu or Jain texts for four centuries ka mil acontece a story states that the story s little more than an unpleasant legend and cannot be treated as history Ling Guyot ism a tradition champion by Basava is alleged to have converted numerous Jane's to their new movement and destroyed various Jain temples in North Karnataka the Jain and Hindu communities have often been very close and mutually accepting some Hindu temples have included a Jain Tirthankara within its premises in a place of honour similarly numerous temple complexes feature both Hindu and Jain monuments with bottome cave temples in khajuraho among some of the most well known Jainism faced persecution during and after the Muslim conquests on the Indian subcontinent Muslims rulers such as Mahmud Ghazni 1000won Mohammed Ghori 1175 and Allah ud-din Muhammad Shah khalji 1298 further oppressed the Jain community they vandalized idols and destroyed temples or converted them into mosques they also burned Jain books and killed James there were significant exceptions such as emperor Akbar 1542 to 1605 whose legendary religious tolerance out of respect for James ordered the release of caged birds and banned the killing of animals on the Jain festival of par usin after Akbar jain's faced an intense period of Muslim persecution in the 17th century the Jain community were the traditional bankers and financiers and this significantly impacted the Muslim rulers however they rarely were a part of the political power during the Islamic rule

according to Pat madethe Jani Christian missionaries expressed extreme frustration at Jain people without pagan creator gods refusing to convert to Christianity while colonial-era Jain scholars such as Champa tried Jain defended Jainism against criticism and misrepresentation by Christian activists missionaries of Christianity and Islam considered Jain traditions as idolatrous and a false religion characterizing Jain temples and icons such of those of jina as false idols and superstitious practices these criticisms States John Court were flawed and also ignored similar practices within sects of Christianity the British colonial government in India as well as Indian princely states passed laws that made monks roaming naked in street to crime one that led to arrest this law

Writing High-Performance Swift Code - iOS Dev Scout
yeah hi everyone my name is Tom shy Politico I'm an engineer at represent Vicky and today I'll be talking about writing high-performance swiss dacoit so for the agenda today i will be covering three topics the first one is are the dimensions of performance the second one is a struct for such class and the last one is about the compiler optimizations so on the first topic dimensions of performance so when you hear the word performing dimensions you dimensions of something you mean you might be thinking of it might be consists of many multiple stops you consider about and it may look something like this when you see it for the first time like this might be too complicated to understand but actually for performance just only three key dimensions to consider which are the location reference counting and dispatch so let's look at the first one a location so on one side we have this tank and on the opposite side we have the heap so what is respect a location stack a location is like a normal step our data structure is it is a last in first out data structure which means that you can only write or edit at the end of the stack so the steps to allocate the memory is just to decrement or increment the stack pointer so the good thing about stack allocation is it is very fast because it is literally a cause of assigning an integer but the drawback is for example if the size and the lifetime is somewhat fixed which I mean because other stack memory is allocated like on top of each other so it is quite hard for you to change this size after you have allocated to memory and usually the stack memory is the opiate that when you when you go out out of the function scope so you can control much of its lifetime so the example of stack allocation is abstract and inu and on the other side we have heap allocation heap allocation request in the use of a more advanced data structure so the step is a bit more complicated whereby you have to search for and use my block of memory of appropriate size to allocate and to deallocate you have to reinsert that block back to the appropriate position so clearly there's more involved yeah and the good thing about this is that the lifetime I decided can be more dynamic like you can force on the heap memory to yellow kids like how you want it to be so because of the this data and more advanced data structure it is slow this load and using the stack allocation and there's some safety over here because our multiple threads can allocate memory on the heap at the same time so you have to always have to enforce blocking or other synchronization mechanism to make it safe so an example is that class so this is an example of stuff a location where we have abstract point with x and y so you can see here that we create the point one and assign point two in the stack memory we are so we have two points side by side in the stack so not much here and then and when we assign X to point to really modify the value of point 2 and the point 1 is the same as opposed to using a class so we have the same data structure but now we change from struct class here this back memory is still involved but we also have to keep a location so the stack actually has the pointer pointing to the heap which point 1 and point 2 points to the same heap memory so when you will edit point to the point 1 get modified also so next about reference counting so you might be thinking that reference counting is only about incrementing and decrementing a number but there's actually more to it so that are when you compile code with reference counting the compiler actually have to insert retain and release calls lieutenant release function health to your code an essay I mentioned with the heap allocation so there's safety overhead because please did these retain and release calls has to be atomic so there's more safety over here here so as an example for the same class point when you compile the code for on the left side and you can see on the right side that the compiler actually generates more code than you can see so it has a reference count inside and also what they are multiple retain and release calls generated and compared to strap that's no return in the relational are generated so to do yourself so less is involved here so it is faster and next let that dispatch so these are the dimensions so so static method dispatch is just is just a normal method call so nothing fancy here so I but I want to focus on the dynamic dispatch so this usually happens when you have inheritance or protocol classes where there can be cases that at runtime you don't know what actually what is the actual type of that the protocol or the superclass is representing so it has to look at a table at runtime to see what is what is the actual implementation is which this table looking is not a big over here it is just one more level of indirection but I want to focus the are dynamic dispatch prevents inlining and optimize other optimizations that would otherwise be visible to the compiler level and I'll be demonstrating inline inlining later so for example of dynamic dispatch so here we have a drawable click superclass and we have point and lying sunglasses and we never trouble array so you can see it all at one time because the array can contain either point on line so it has to look at the table on the right side here whether they're actual element is a line on the class and when you call draw for that objective by looking at the table it can actually jump to the correct implementation okay for the first of it what I want to leave for you guys is when you when you think what you should think when writing swift code you should you should ask yourself these questions whether should the instance be created on the stack or the heap and when passing the instances around how much reference town are you tinkering and whenever when you call the method is it going to be statically or dynamically dispatch and that's a general rule of thumb you you don't want to pay for the dynamism you don't eat okay fun for the second topic struck with this class so I think you you guys might be running into this situation a lot where you want to this whether you done sure with whether you want to use a strap or class for your data so when I hear about Swift at the first time and with the introduction of when you tighten straps I have this thought in my mind like struts are very fast I should you I should be using it everywhere and can I ask who in this room has also have this idea okay a few people actually this is not always true and so let's let's look at a simple example so things get quite a bit more fun together when you have a struct with reference types inside so I have a quick quiz here so as a question when I pass this strap around what will happen to the text and font variables inside we would get a copy each time each time I pass it around or when or how if each of it will be our reference counted on nothing will happen so who putting is a everything that gets copied and putting it is B [Music] so in normal circumstances it is actually be so as an example here I create one label with a string and font and I assign it to level two so when I compile the code it's actually it is actually retain and releasing each of the levels oh sorry these of the properties inside the level so you can imagine if you are using a class instead of a level here when you pass it around then there would be you you you the compiler would only have to increment or decrement their girlfriends come on the class but here it is actually implementing or decremented the reference of the each properties inside so it is like two times more expensive than what a class would have and there's another case with when you are using large value type in saga for the call type collection so so when you have protocol because protocol can hold it doesn't know what is the actual type is dependent it used this technique called connects the existential container where it stars a pointer to the actual memory inside the heap so here we have a pair pizza - for the call types adorable so when you copy the pair like here when you send a pair to the copy it actually copies the whole struct so instead of if you are using if you use ties it would be like only one reference now increase rate but if you have in this case video it would complete the whole trust and as you can see it is very it would be a really expensive if you have something like this okay so what photos from those two examples I want to highlight that when you use fraps you have to be careful when there's a class if there's a classic site you can be causing excessive reference counting overhead and for protocol type collections with large strata inside it can cause the excessive caffeine so I forgot to mention one thing from the beginner site so the existing to your container actually has about three value buffer size of three word so if you are strapped is size is less than three words in then you it can be stopped right inside there exclude existence your content without allocating the heat but here for the line we have four words so it has to allocate learning a keep memory outside okay so what did all those information you may be thinking okay fine I have like lots of data and protocols everywhere so struts you usually you be always too slow communion I'll just use pass every read but actually you don't have to lose your hope yet we have this thing called copy-on-write technique that can basically go around these pitfalls so what is computer copy-on-write copyright means actually it is basically a struct with internal class storage which means manually copy when we mutate the destructor so as an example you have this line struct here and inside we actually declare a storage of length of line storage which is actually a class and when we call the move function which is changing the data inside we say if we are the only person to hold the reference to this story if we are not the only one then we create a copy so the second is done by recording this function call is uniquely reference now not Objective C which you might think that it looks ugly but but luckily we don't always have to do this first standard library already set and victory already implements this copy-on-write functionality for you so you can use it directly okay so to summarize when you should use strap or we need to use a clasp so for struct so you can use it when comparing the data makes sense like comparing x and y value of two points and when you want each company to have independent states I'll use it across multiple tracks example is yeah just what you see before like points size or coordinates and for class you can use it when comparing the identity of each instance make sense like for example you comparing job to you IPOs because you are not you won't be comparing like the frame or background hardly off which feels right you just compared it to pointers and if you are working with cocoa framework and most of the ApS is it expects you to pass in this object anyway which is a class or you can get around it most of the time so and like personally I find that I'm using more class than scrap because it has like where is little use case so what are the time we just have to use class okay for the last topic compiler optimization so what do I want to talk about this so once upon a time in Stack Overflow I look I was looking at like on a function to calculate the distance between two point called Earth coordinates and I saw this define here is this macro here which which is are dividing the pie with one 18 so what is so I had suggested that why wouldn't you just replace this pi divided by 180 with a constant because pi is a constant right dividing with a constant is just a constant so you can just use a number to save some computation time to photograph pastor Anderson in the well and five years later somebody told me that you don't need to do this God the compiler actually calculates this sir for you so yeah so at the time I get this message itself so doing that really don't need to do this the only way to shake this is is to test it so I'll be I'll be testing this and see if it is true or not so okay so I created us with father demo and inside this file I just have two variables a and B a is the same thing as we have before and B is a constant which is a risk which means to be the result of the computation of the PI over 180 so what you do is so we have to compile it and see what the compiler actually throws out you can do this [Music] so you can do this play so can you you can combine it using an XC runs with C and then you pass on the name waterfowl and you can specify right there so - born on here is you is telling the compiler that you don't want to do any optimization and this is just the opportunity output so we do this and see what you have so so we have our output here and this is an executable file so we won't be able to read it but we can read it actually using a two hopper disassembler so let's fire it up and just want to try the demo you can just drag and drop this executable to the hopper we have lots yeah as you can see we have lots of licorice which really cannot read so my function is here but actually you can read the code in open for bus we were through for the pseudocode more so you can just highlight the main direction yeah and click on that button and you will see like what the compiled code actually looks like so here for the add the variable a so the first two line is just the fork I'm trying to read the aku the main activates novelist skip that so the third line is actually the path variable so we can see that it is actually doing some dividing singing from the eighth consecutive st which is like dividing static double or something and from be is just a number so I don't know what in extreme m1 is thing is just constant and number so over this so without come off in my station you can see that this divided division happening so but this is not actually the court that you build at for production so for in this mode you're actually doing some optimization so we actually have to change the optimization level here to - oh and we change the name of the doctor so now we have another output which is optimized so let's say we if it is different from earlier so let's do the same thing yet so now you say that a and B is actually just a number after you apply the optimization so uh the last basis may be my rounding error okay [Music] actually I also played it a bit further so I just that it with I want to see if the compiler would be smart enough to collapse the calculation from a for loop so we can do the same thing here so yeah actually C is just a number of the applied optimization but it's instead this pitfall because you can see what happens [Music] oh so it's not actually a number anymore it has it actually going through some loop because you can see that there so you can see some all projects and there's a lot of junk in here so you can see this one five eight zero here is actually that race on the top so it's actually going in the loop yeah and then and that's lots of power flow so it turns out that if your volume is large then it's the compiler doesn't collapse it but but I see this an overflow check here and I was wondering and I know that our swift actually has operator that actually ignores the overflow shaking so I I'll try to use that and see it will produce a different result here so now instead of doing this I'll do this instead so instead of class use ampersand that's fishy circa class with overflow checking ignored [Music] oh yeah so now it's just a number yeah so it's just a trick that I if you want to like crazy your fast performance you can they speak they're also taking and if you ever need to do some hard mathematics yeah happen last example I wanna show you yeah which is enlightening so okay that really function which calls each other right when should one is called question two to which all three and truly wish just ran down my network so we compile this and we just call function one here so let's compile it without optimization so without the optimization you see that inside the main function actually cost function one and inside function cost function to us we have written and to intuit costs free and in 3x and actually three actually cost a random function but for the optimized version you can see in the main function it actually skipped out of function bunch of course we help me a goes straight to the random work so yeah so that's the last bit compiler is doing on your behalf when you use specify the optimization flag so let's go back so we have seen some example compiler optimizations and connection which is a constant folding enlightening demonic for elimination but basically it's just so it's just pretty move and you spoken ah if the compiler can detect that some content is not used anywhere so it's just removed so constant folding is just one of like many many compiler optimization attitudes that it is doing behind so you can check it out in this weekly page if you are interested so this other voice just if you want to see later yeah that's all thank you and if you have any questions for you guys and by the way we are every yeah yeah if you're interested please contact this email and the slides will be in thank [Applause] [Music] that myself then you can use a time for filing to and swish around like between the two but yeah yeah depends on how in Tennessee your code is around that you think that struck our class right you've got the old head is if you see you like if you can compare them side-by-side it the function calls are over here from retaining really is is going to be quite a lot and also if you have if you access it on what the progress and you have legs exactly over here so yeah it depends on the circumstance that you use those data you know with a struct see they are I think they are very similar but yeah but but this but his DIF used cases of dick Friedman but an import value types so performance because you have over here yeah yeah if you there some libraries maybe like some graphics intensive you will use those kind of stuff and then me for you and you don't actually have to use that yourself but yeah [Music] okay the other question can't hold it thank you thank you

Is CiviCRM the Right CRM for your organization?
so it's iffy CRM the right CRM for your organization so this is a question that I get asked constantly and I'm constantly answering questions from potential clients and clients about various technologies it's sort of what I'm doing on a regular basis so just some initial thoughts and I'm I've been working in software selection processes for a long long time I'm really not here to rubber-stamp City and but it does do extremely well when we do comparisons between different software products in this in this space these are my opinions these are not necessarily the opinions of every software consultant every city consultant or the city core team so I'm gonna give you my thoughts and some some comparison products out there we do do work with other software besides civvy so we've got implementation experience across a wide range of software's I believe that most online comparison sites are pretty useless or they're old the only one that I would I think is good is the idealware site has anyone ever gone there to idealware and ten sponsors is ever know who antennas so antennas a is a National Organization for technology for nonprofits and they sponsor various comparisons they've just they do one on CRN's they do went on content management systems a lot of different software and that's pretty good it's pretty robust and that's a very good place to get an idea of what are the 50 60 80 options and narrowing it down maybe to 10 or 10 or 12 so has anyone recently done a comparison study between civvy CRM and any others crms here so civvy can be used across a lot of different organizations grassroots cause based associations foundations political groups many different types of organizations relatively small to relatively large international developing nations there's a lot of people here what what areas are you from so I can maybe focus on those a little bit more your developer okay and you guys are all developer or nonprofit I know you work for nonprofit and Jim are you with okay okay which which which type work with nonprofit cause based okay okay okay great so instead there's a lot of different competitive options and sort of each area and people look at different different software's depending on what your specific needs are so the first question that I always have when someone asked me I'm in implementing Civic CRM or I mentioned doing a software selection process I asked them all right do you understand what this open-source thing is do you understand what that what that means I actually I wrote an article for n10 this summer about what does it mean to choose an open-source CRM and some of the key points that people learn sort of by banging their heads over the years I think is one is open source and nonprofits well they're a perfect fit right you think I've seen people say I have to use an open source solution because we're a non-profit open sources and make any money why would I want to go to these evil for-profit firms and I've seen people make a selection on that alone generally not the best choice for you open source is not free it may have no cost associated but it's it's free like kittens right so it's free to to bring it home but it's not free to keep it fed and cared for the whole time but hopefully it brings you enjoyment most of their lives and just hoping it's going to be less expensive because it's free and opensource doesn't make it so and there are absolutely cases when open-source is significantly more expensive than in a high priced commercial system this is a really big one and we probably get back office thinking at least half of our work because of well-intentioned experts implementing civvy CRM that really should not be in this space but because it's open source and even though there is a partner program and I encourage everyone to either become a partner or a member if you're part of a nonprofit organization but I always say if you've got someone who's local or someone your board or you know a a committee members you know son or daughter who's loves technology it's like there's a good chance there's gonna be a lot of problems I was just at a client the other day and was my first meeting with them and they were having all of these problems with duplicates every single thing they've ever single-entry they put in the system was was duplicated almost so went and looked at their rules for duplicate and it was set to external identifier the only thing so they've never not put a duplicate in the system every single new contact that signed up gave them a donation so they implemented a few months back they've got a little more than 10,000 duplicates if they know about I'm guessing they probably got 50,000 because they're pretty sure that some of them weren't two pockets but I'm pretty sure all of them were have been duplicates so their expert must have probably done an import right with using a strong identifier from some other system and never changed it back never looked never tested and has now created a huge issue for them so this is probably one of the most important things is be aware of these well-intentioned experts with open source make sure that they've actually done this before in something similar or as complicated as what you have done I like to think of open-source software as a platform and a commercial product as an apartment building so open-source is a platform that you can build on depending on the technology civic CRM has got a ton of functionality but basically it's a it's a platform you look at something I'll get into like a Salesforce think of as a giant apartment building you get one apartment okay you can change the wallpaper but you can't change the plumbing you only have so many resources at that apartment building that you can use and you can't just go out and get more as easily as you can with a platform solution like sippy sippy CRM so that's one of big big distinctions between open source and commercial there's always what about support well everyone says well there's free support online you can find contractors people who understand it but it will cost you money and if you don't budget for that then you are fooling yourselves if you're fortunate enough and have an expert on staff then your cost will be extremely low but if that expert this is their first implementation they're going to need some help and not to budget for that is a big what about city services other open-source CRM and we we I get this question a lot too first of all sugar has anyone ever implemented sugar it's a great product not for this space okay if you are interested in running a small sales company or a company that's selling widgets or you've got something it works very very well it's a good alternative sales force but certainly not in this space and I don't think there's really any other open source really worth even talking about here there's a few of them out there has anyone run into any of there's some there's some modules in Drupal or extensions out there for WordPress but nothing that has any of the breadth that what that cities RM has a with the exception of some point solutions around e-commerce so if you just won an event or you just want a donation and you really don't want a CRM this some of these could be a a solution for you that makes sense okay other thing is free versus open source well Salesforce is free for nonprofits right and you've got Drupal commerce which is free and you got Magento it gives you a free version okay so I think we talked about earlier Rick was mentioning well of course it was great except for the fact that it really doesn't come built-in with any online donation stuff so you've got to go got get that extension there are some free ones and there are some expensive ones what do you want to do better integration with your website well that's gonna cost a fair amount of custom code and a lot more than what it's gonna cost for City CRM because city already integrates almost flawlessly with WordPress and with Drupal so when you're having the open source just this discussion it's really important to think about these items because it's not just a free software that because you're a non-profit and it's open source you guys are kindred spirits it's going to work for you it's going to be free everything will just be perfect those implementations generally fail and then someone maybe someone in this room gets gets the call be because of that failure but it's definitely a problem all right so let's talk about the city CRM strengths I'm not gonna go into all the different functionalities I think a lot of people probably everyone here knows these things so it's very broad-based it's got a variety of tools where most of the other AMS is CRMs do not I mean between mass mailing and events and memberships and reminders and activities in cases and grants and the pace of which these extensions are emerging and at the evolution of speed of the platform is in it's phenomenal it's the best that I can see in the industry and Salesforce who's spending zillions of dollars on this some of its going to the nonprofit space but not that much so people in say oh there's all this other work being done and there's definitely venture capitalists out there supporting some of it and I'll go into a few of them but the evolution of speed here the speed of the evolution is just really really strong and it's because of the community it's a platform solution which I talked about earlier and that's a big strength for smaller nonprofits without sophisticated needs it pretty much works out of the box and if you're a large nonprofit that has very sophisticated needs you can really do a lot to make this thing exactly the way you want it sometimes when we're talking with larger clients and we're comparing different solutions what it comes down to is if you really want exactly what you want and you know you're gonna have to customize this thing use a platform solution because you're going to be able to do it and maintain it a lot better if you think an upgrade of civvy because of some customizations is expensive wait till you try to do that on some of these commercial platforms a lot more expensive also the integration with Drupal and WordPress it is by far the best hands down not even close there's nothing that even come close to comparison today and that is becoming more and more important especially with things like we've talked about private social networks and areas where people can log in and see see different things so this is this strength has always been there is going to be more and more important it only has any questions please feel free to ask whenever or be just bored you can leave them so other platforms is anyone ever heard of nation builder is anyone out here ever implemented nation builder is anyone know what nation builder is okay so there are a new kid in the block with a lot of money venture-backed I don't know forget their last round of funding but I think they've gotten like 2030 million dollars maybe 40 million dollars worth of funding they started out in the political space and now they're moving into the nonprofit space there are some things that are really good they've got their ease of implementation you really don't need anyone technical at all for their implementation they're their UI is the way that that integrates and everything sort of looks together it's really well done they have a really simple data model so if you're complex there's no way you can do what you want to do you want to get out and the ability to handle some like the complexity around finance or around events or around donations is just not there I'm not gonna be there in two or three years but as of right now it's not even close it is very inexpensive and the integration a person said with social media is is excellent it's the best out there on the marketplace that I've seen so if integration with with social media a quick install without any technical expertise with extremely limited needs it's a good option it's a very good option and we have any questions on nation builder it that and also it also shows you if they give you permission you can go out to there there are contacts as well so you can really increase your network a lot which nonprofits love that right now people say Salesforce what does that mean oh my god Salesforce is not just one solution so is everyone here familiar with Salesforce at least a little bit ok so basically there's there's three levels there's this thing called nonprofit starter pack which you've probably heard a lot of that's the done by the Salesforce foundation it's getting a lot better and basically it turns Salesforce and twists it around and it presents the UI in a way that makes sense for nonprofits fundamental database structure is still a for-profit CRM it is twisting the user interface for some nonprofits that's fine but it's clear it does not have out of the box nearly the functionality that City CRM does and it doesn't have any online features you can purchase or you can utilize Salesforce app exchange apps - down there somewhere - to augment some of that but it's never gonna be quite the same that's what civvy does for you but tell you what some people say you know what I'm afraid of open source I can't spend any money there's so Salesforce is is an option for them there is really no cost once the solution is running it is a SAS model you don't have to pay anything for your first 10 licenses of Salesforce you need more than that then you have to pay but you get an 80% discount I think that comes out to like $45 a month per user or something something like that not a you know we've got clients that run Salesforce this is a this is a very good solution but not nearly the breadth of scope of what Sidney gives you there's other mid tier solutions and there's also high end solutions these mid-tier solutions most of them are new right because Salesforce opened up the force.com platform for people to develop and people are developing like crazy that platform is rock-solid really strong phenomenal but just because these guys are on the Salesforce platform doesn't necessarily mean their code is Salesforce and rock-solid and their Salesforce put some things in there but you know there are bugs in these implementations just like there's bugs in sort of open source software so don't get fooled by the fact that this is a commercial product it's going to be much cleaner it's definitely not Salesforce some of the real high ends like nimble AMF on TV cause they haven't heard of those so Salesforce has sort of picked around cause I was like its winner in the four in the nonprofit space you'll probably hear more and more of that but the implementation the average implementation is sixty eighty thousand dollars round cause sixty to eighty thousand dollars cause of you is probably lower I'm gonna guess in the twentieth dollar range but you're not going to get anything in less expensive than that so if you're looking for smaller implementations none of these are gonna cut it things like fontina and nimble AMS start at about 80 90 $100,000 implementations so the comparison these tools especially these guys are here are really well structured my round cause is sort of new I don't really know I haven't seen a lot of long term comparisons on that but some of these are extremely strong but they're very expensive and if your model fits what fits what they're doing then they're a good choice and you should definitely consider them the strengths across any of these Salesforce products is they have excellent and easy reporting I mean how many times if you're a consultant like I can't get this report out a system you know it's very very hard and we've done some things with Jasper and we're looking at other tools or do you do a custom search or whatever but it's it's a constant complaint and it's and it's getting better right but it's still hard so it's excellent reporting tools and so forth has to be case and it's got some activities but it doesn't really have workflow built in you can't do one thing which then trigger something else would send trigger something else so a source has that so if these it's also got said this great app exchange the afternoon but with like a an excellent violin volunteer extension and there's a whole bunch of other ones so you should look at this and of reporting and especially of workflow is important to you the using a force.com platform app is is not a bad choice none of these integrate like Civic CRM into your content management system not even close ok most of these like cause you and round cause they have install bases in the maybe a hundred 150 so they're small right so when civvy had install base of 100 150 think it much more to evolve how much are how much more these guys going to learn over the years as they continue to grow they've all got you know a lot of money behind so they're advertising like crazy they're fixing bugs but they're right now you are really helping them with their development package to be honest with you right because you are a very new user not true of of font Eva is that does that help on Salesforce logs that make sense ok the next area is our favorite is Blackbaud and of course we run into these guys all the time does anyone what re stands for it anyway any idea what that might be razor's edge sort of the the mother the father the grandfather the Godfather of all developing software where you know an organization's been using that for the last 20 years and you're gonna have to kill the development director to change it just to give you a little history on blackboard how they operate is I call purchase rinse and repeat so razor's edge has been their flagship product for forever okay it does not do online fundraising well and blackboard does have some products to make it a little bit better but overall it's pretty expensive and the functionality do you compare how it looks with some of the other products it's just not that good so what does blackboard constantly do they're constantly purchasing new vendors like they purchase Cantera a few years ago or several years ago now and that product is sort of you know drifted and bench it's not dead but if you recall up blackboard and talk to one their customer service people you they never mentioned Quintero tube ever they've also bought convey oh a couple years ago they're sort of they were the up and comers and they've got they had three products they had what most people call can video 360 their original product they had oh god I'm drawing a blank they had luminate and they had ground hmm no I'm gonna call it ground but I know that that's wrong so after so many days the black would purchase them they said Oh common ground it was close common ground and luminate was their flagship it was built on Salesforce really strong product it started out as common grass they split common ground added a bunch of bi and some other really cool features and featured luminate then when black boy boy they say well we don't want common ground it's not it's not going to get us I'm not sure exactly why but my opinion is that it's not going to get us the revenue that we want on these installs so anyone who's on common ground we're not supporting it in 90 days come to luminate spend a hundred thousand dollars that has been a big benefit to a lot of these other crms that are out there who just went crazy on these different products not a lot of these people move to city but we've got a few organizations that moved from Cantera and a few that moved to Frumkin vo from to cbc RM lumen eights a great product but it's expensive we did a a software selection project this spring where the products came down to razors excuse me a suite of black blood products sales force with I forget which one it was I think it was round cause and civvy CV CRM and neon and although in the end the illuminate product was by far the most expensive with with the other the blackboard suite of suite approach the organization chose blackboard because they felt that that was what the board would allow them to do they it came down to in the executor record told me like ah you know I don't want to get fired for this decision and I'm not I we have the money and we're gonna spend it and this is the right cost now it's not a bad product don't get me wrong but I don't think for this organization there was anything that they needed this it was going to be you know $100,000 implementation for other CRM s out there neon salsa there's a lot of them in general I'm not a big fan of sort of these small software companies unless they have the backing to grow or they have a particular niche salsa is a really good example they do advocacy extremely well that's their niche so we have one client to have City CRM for most what they do they purchase a small software license to do their is there advocacy from not not that unusual we're actually talk with him what about things going to go anywhere but what can we do some real integration you know at the API level I'm not sure it's we're gonna kind of go anywhere though and neon is very popular and it's pretty inexpensive it's got a good general set of features you know but again they're these these install bases are significantly smaller than most of the Salesforce or the city products question mm-hmm typical that's more than most but it depends on what they're doing so hmm I'm sure the the salespersons get a nice bonus for that but yeah that's again is with blackboard and convene now part of that in the same house is it's very expensive it's the biggest the most popular they sponsor tons of events they're everywhere and you are generally not gonna get fired if you're an executive director by putting that in that's higher than most and I've seen yes but it can it's not out of the question I would say more common is in the 20 to $40,000 range there may have been doing something special what were they doing peer-to-peer fundraising okay okay okay well because one of the things that a lot of these products and I didn't put up here is peer-to-peer fundraising right civies got a a good product I wouldn't say it's spectacular but it's solid and it's free it's part of the install most of these other packages don't have it or they charge you a pretty hefty percentage above the credit card fees for processing three four percent so it sounds like it's free until you add up the dollars so if you're raising a million dollars and a peer-to-peer you've got hidden costs of thirty forty thousand dollars and you know every year that's just money that you're paying to maintain the software we're in civvy you're not having you have to pay that at all so if you think about it it's gonna cost you thirty thousand dollars to create this phenomenal peer-to-peer fundraising network through through civvy is it worth it compared to paying every year thirty to forty thousand dollars for a lot of these other other products now I'll admit their products are slick and sometimes it's worth it because you'll get one point four million instead of 1 million and is that worth $30,000 absolutely but then you have to think well could I have done that any differently so it's it's an interesting choice association management software is anyone familiar with different AMS systems hmm a Vectra right there are a ton of mid-tier a AMS choices out there and I don't think any of them have the breath or the configurability of civvy serum that I've seen but they have some really good features so City membership and events are good but there are absolutely membership systems out there that have better features for memberships and better features around events so what I'll talk with people when they come to us about what we're comparing this AMS with civvy if they have the right feature set that you're looking for and you feel comfortable with a number of installs I'm not really a big fan if someone has got 50 or 60 installs and you're helping them with their developments though then go with that AMS but if you're not sure then West compare city city CRM there's also some really large AMS options a Vectra being there like the razor's edge of the AMS world but the average implementation there I don't know now but I'm gonna throw out the numbers of you know 200-300 thousand dollars so if you have extremely complex needs and and I don't think there's there's many Civic implementations that are close to that cost okay there's you know member nation there's Association anywhere these are again these are expensive this one's actually from Fante bus' is a salesforce product and that's built on in built on oracle they're they're good solutions but they're very expensive and they have very large yearly carrying costs to them very large but they are options for very large associations I'm gonna get most large associations are not looking at civvy Ciara I've never I shouldn't say that never but very rarely will I be in a comparison we're comparing some of these large a messes with city it usually it's apples and oranges at that point okay okay so it's simply the right choice for you it is a great choice for May nonprofits you gotta understand what open-source means and watch the true costs and you also need to understand this is a platform solution that's really important it's got a broad feature set and it's evolving and it has extremely strong integration with WordPress and with Drupal those are the key strengths usually it comes down to I'll ask you know if your games like if you really want what you want and you're willing to you want to customize this platform solution is huge if you're a larger nonprofit if you're a smaller one the fact that you can integrate and get some really cool functionality with integration with Drupal and with WordPress at a fraction of the cost it's a really good product for you also all right that's all that I had I'm not sure I can see everybody in the room but does anyone have any questions comments was this it all helpful okay all right thank you

2008 seventeen months after the companies first proposed the merger the merger brought the combined companies a total of more than eighteen point five million subscribers based on current subscriber numbers on the date of merging the deal was valued at three point three billion dollars not including debt through Q to 2017 Sirius XM has more than 32 million subscribers the proposed merger was opposed by those who felt it would create a monopoly Sirius and XM argued that a merger was the only way that satellite radio could survive in September 2018 the company agreed to purchase the competing streaming music service pandora and this transaction was successfully completed on February 1st 2019 topic pre-merger you topic early days of serious Sirius satellite radio was founded by Martine Rothblatt David margulies and Robert brisk Minh in 1990 Rothblatt founded satellite CD radio in Washington DC the company was the first to petition the FCC to assign unused frequencies for satellite radio broadcast which provoked a furor among owners of both large and small terrestrial radio stations in April 1992 Rothblatt resigned as chairman and CEO to start a medical research foundation former NASA engineer brisk Minh who designed the company's satellite technology was then appointed chairman and CEO six months later in November 1992 Rogers Wireless co-founder margulies who had provided financial backing for the venture acquired control of the company and succeeded brisk Minh margulies renamed the company CD radio and spent the next five years lobbying the FCC to allow satellite radio to be deployed and the following five years raising 1.6 billion dollars which was used to build and launch three satellites into elliptical orbit from kazakhstan in july 2000 in 1997 after margulies had obtained regulatory clearance and effectively created the industry the FCC also sold a license to XM satellite radio which followed serious example in November 1999 marketing chief IRA Barr convinced margulies to again change the name of the company this time to Sirius satellite radio in order to avoid association with the soon-to-be outdated CD technology having secured installation deals with automakers including BMW Chrysler and four Lord Sirius launched the initial phase of its service in four cities on February 14 2002 expanding to the rest of the contiguous United States on July 1st 2002 in November 2001 Margulis stepped down as CEO remaining as chairman until November 2003 with serious issuing a statement thanking him for his great vision leadership and dedication in creating both serious and the satellite radio industry joe clayton former CEO of Global Crossing followed a CEO from November 2001 until November 2004 stayed on as chairman until July 2008 Mel Karmazin former president of Viacom became CEO in November 2004 and remained in that position through the merger until December 2012 you topic early days of XM the origin of XM satellite radio was a petition for rulemaking filed at the Federal Communications Commission FCC by regulatory attorney and founder of satellite CD radio Martine Rothblatt to establish frequencies and licensing rules for the world's first ever satellite digital audio radio service SD ARS on May 18 1990 satellite CD radio Inc s CDR filed a petition for rulemaking in which it requested spectrum to offer Compact Disc quality digital audio radio service to be delivered by satellites and complementary radio transmitters following the allocation NPRM the FCC established a December 15 1992 cutoff date for applications proposing satellite DARS to be considered in conjunction with CD radios application one such application came from American mobile radio Corporation a MRC the predecessor company to XM satellite radio XM satellite radio was founded by lon Levin and Gary Parson's it has its origins in the 1988 formation of the American mobile satellite corporation AMS see a consortium of several organizations originally dedicated to satellite broadcasting of telephone fax and data signals in 1992 AMS C established a unit called the American mobile radio corporation dedicated to developing a satellite based digital radio service this was spun off as XM satellite radio Holdings Inc in 1998 it's planned financing was complete by July 2000 at which point XM had raised 1.2 six billion dollars and secured installation agreements with General Motors Honda and Toyota initially scheduled for September 12 2001 XM's service start date was postponed due to the September 11th terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon XM satellite radios first broadcast was on September 25th 2001 nearly four months before serious Gary Parson's served as chairman of XM satellite radio from its inception through the merger and resigned from the position in November 2009 Huw Panero served as XM CEO from 1998 until July 2007 shortly after the merger with Sirius was proposed nate davis was appointed interim CEO until the merger was completed at which point Sirius CEO Mel Karmazin took over as CEO of the newly merged company Sirius XM you topic merger you topic announcement after years of speculation the New York Post first reported on a potential merger in January 2005 and three months of serious negotiations the thirteen billion dollars merger between Sirius and XM was officially announced on February 19 2007 at the time the nation's only to satellite radio providers reported nearly 14 million combined subscribers with nearly 8 million belonging to XM with neither having turned an annual profit Sirius was valued at 5.2 billion dollars and XM at three point seven five billion dollars each subscription was sold for $12.95 monthly XM and Sirius executives felt the merger would lower programming costs by eliminating overlapping stations and duplicated marketing costs according to their original operating licenses the two companies were not allowed to ever own each others license in proceeding with the merger Sirius CEO Mel Karmazin ignored this rule gambling that the FCC would consider other audio entertainment to be competitors and allowed the merger to proceed by waiving the rule topic approval after a 57 week review process the US Justice Department approved the Sirius and XM merger on March 24 2008 concluding that satellite radio competes with terrestrial radio online streaming and mp3 players and tablets on July 25th 2008 the FCC approved the merger with a three-to-two vote determining that it was not a monopoly because of all the competition on the Internet FCC Chairman Kevin Martin stated the merger is in the public interest and will provide consumers with greater flexibility and choices the biggest challenge for the newly unified company was selling more subscriptions with the drop in the number of cars sold annually in the US the subsequent reduced demand for cars equipped with satellite radio as well as online radio streaming competition conditions of the merger included allowing any third-party company to make satellite radio devices producing new radios that can receive both XM and Sirius channels within one year allowing consumers to choose which channels they would like to have freezing subscription rates for three years setting aside 8% of its channels for non-commercial programmers and paying 19 point 7 million dollars in fines for passed rule violations Sirius and XM began merging the channels on November 12 2008 each share of XM stock was replaced with 4.6 shares of Sirius stock each company's stockholders initially retained approximately 50% of the joined company at the time of the merger Sirius top programming included channels for Howard Stern and Martha Stewart live NBA and NFL games and live NASCAR races XM's program included channels for Willie Nelson Opie and Anthony snoop dogg and oprah winfrey and live major league baseball games topic of position the National Association of Broadcasters was adamantly opposed to the merger calling it a monopoly shortly after the Justice Department gave its support to the merger without restrictions attorneys general from 11 states Connecticut Iowa Maryland Mississippi Missouri Nevada Ohio Oklahoma Rhode Island Utah and Washington urged the FCC to impose restrictions on the merger several congressional Democrats also opposed the merger calling it anti-competitive and criticizing the Bush administration for allowing it to go through topic post-merger you topic resurgence and growth after coming post to filing for chapter 11 only months after the 2008 merger having gone so far as to hire lawyers to prepare a possible bankruptcy filing SiriusXM was able to avoid declaring bankruptcy with the assistance of a five hundred and thirty million dollars loan from Liberty media in February 2009 which Mel Karmazin negotiated in exchange for a 40 percent equity stake in Sirius XM in the fourth quarter of 2009 Sirius XM posted a profit for the first time with a net income of fourteen point two million dollars this came after net losses of two hundred and forty five point eight million dollars in the year following the merger the company's resurgence was owed in part to the loan from Liberty Media increased automobile sales in the u.s. were also a factor Sirius XM ended 2009 with eighteen point eight million subscribers by the end of 2012 Sirius XM's subscriber base had grown to twenty three point nine million mostly due to an increase in partnerships with automakers and car dealers a strong push in the used car market and continued improved car sales in the u.s. in general the renewal of radio show host Howard Stern's contract through 2015 four hundred million dollars for five years 100 million dollars less than Stern's previous five-year deal was also a factor in the company steady growth Stern's show attracted over 12 million listeners per week as of 2017 Sirius XM had approximately a 75% penetration rate in the new car market out of that seventy-five percent approximately 40 percent become subscribers Sirius XM is available in vehicles from every major car company as well as in

dissolved as a separate entity and merged into Sirius XM Radio Inc on April 11 2011 the Canadian radio-television and Telecommunications Commission CRTC approved the merger of Sirius and XM s Canadian affiliates in Sirius XM Canada on April 11th 2013 a new york appeals court upheld a new york judge's ruling from april 2012 that howard stern was not entitled to stop bonuses based on Sirius XM's exceeding subscriber target projections the court ruled that subscribers to XM satellite radio from before the Sirius XM merger should not be counted as Sirius subscribers for the purposes of Stern's lawsuit Stern argued the opposite because his popularity had played an integral role in helping Sirius acquire XM he had been seeking 330 million dollars in stock bonuses in 2017 Sirius XM surpassed 32 million subscribers on September 24 2018 Sirius XM announced its intent to acquire Pandora for 3.5 billion dollars the acquisition was completed on February 1st 2019 topic executives following the merger serious CEO Mel Karmazin became CEO of the combined company and XM chairman Gary Parson's retained his role XM CEO and co-founder Hugh Panero stepped down in August 2007 shortly after the

serious Canada and XM Canada were partially owned by Sirius XM 20% in 23.3% respectively in joint ventures with Canadian companies after the u.s. merger the two Canadian ventures did not immediately agree to a similar merger but instead remained in competition as distinct services complicating matters was that Sirius Canada has nearly 80 percent of the total satellite radio subscriber base in that country and felt they deserved greater than a 50/50 split of the new company whereas XM Canada felt the deal with the NHL a particularly lucrative prize in Canadian sports broadcasting also warranted a significant amount of value in the new company on November 24 2010 XM Radio Canada and Sirius Canada announced that they would merge the services on April 12 2011 the CRTC approved the

CZ-P01 upgrades
how's it going everybody I'm going to be doing a video on some of the small upgrades that I've ordered for this CZ um kind of giving a shout out to uh cage and Gun Works where I got this mat from a real nice mat shows you all the uh the parts and and pieces for your uh cz75 series um you know big shout out to them um super super nice people um was able to get a hold of them and talk to them and kind of pick their brains about some of these smaller upgrades that I wanted to do and these are what they recommend most um so first thing you know obviously our 15 round magazine here um because it's the only one I could find available um whenever I bought the pistol it came with a 10 round magazine but it uh still fits flush so you get the 15 rounds and it still fits flush just like the 10 rounder does um and appears to be a very high quality magazine um functions just fine um another one of the upgrades that we're going to be doing today is this guide r Rod so if you've seen my other video on the review on this gun I was just really uncomfortable with that polymer guide rod and actually got on the line with one of their gunsmiths there at cage and Gunworks and uh he highly recommends putting the steel guide rod in it um and this is a company that specializes in um Cy Firearms um they do all kinds of special upgrades and things to them um for $22 you get stainless steel as opposed to the polymer that comes with it and we'll compare it after I get it pulled out of the gun and then another issue that I've seen with these czs is the uh this roll pin that retains the firing pin um we'll eventually get a hole knocked in it some people are claiming after only four or 500 rounds so we got this uh this steel tempered steel retaining pin which is supposed to be a little tougher um I've already got the firing pin retainer started in this one um didn't figure it was necessary for you guys to watch me curse at it um just a heads up if this is the first time you're taking it out it is going to be very difficult all right and it looks like CZ did make an update to this guy um you know instead of being the hollow pin um they kind of doubled it up um but I've heard this isn't quite doing the trick um after a couple hundred rounds you can kind of see that that uh that shoulder that firing pins already started to kind of Dent and bend this up so we'll see how the the one from cage and Gun Works does um and to do this uh don't take your slide off um and leave the hammer uh in the All the Way Forward position so that this uh firing excuse me firing pin shoulder doesn't get in the way and if you look through there right now you can see that it is uh it's cleared so it should just be able to tap right in there and they do recommend this slot in the top being at the 12:00 position so pointed straight up all right looks to be good all right and then the next thing that we're going to be doing is we're going to be putting that stainless steel guide rod in it just for a quick side-by-side comparison of the two you can see that it's uh it's pretty well made dimensions are pretty exact and just to kind of show you on this uh polymer one it's already starting to kind of get scratched up and gashed up by the uh spring here there you go there's your stainless steel guide rod in there and all this stuff was uh picked up at cage and Gun Works not sponsored by them or anything but um if you do have have a easy I highly recommend going to them uh the pin was a whole $5 uh magazine was roughly $49 and that guide rod which I feel like is the first thing you can do you should do is that guide rod um was only 22 and then you know five bucks for the uh the pin here right let me know what you think just to kind of show you here too um you know just kind of a PSA uh you don't want to end up uh nicking your gun if you can see right right there next to that retaining pin I I nicked my my slide a little bit but all is well this is a carry gun um as long as functionality is 100% that's all that really matters if you look at some of the other guns that I've carried in the past um you know places like right here you can already see it starting um from holstering and unholstering you're just going to get some wear and some small scratches on it but just be sure to be careful when you're hammering that end so you don't have to make yourself sick like I did

IS MESSI THE GOAT? #messi #goat #football #dribble #legend #shorts
[Music] after receiving the ball just past the Midfield Messi goes from virtually zero to 19.5 miles an hour in just 2.7 seconds three Defenders trap him on the sideline each coming within six feet of the ball Messi begins to decelerate this allows him to make three short controlled touches effectively beating the Bilbao players in just 1.2 seconds enters the Box Messi uses an inside out move to open up more than five feet of space this gives him just enough room to rip a 48 mile per hour near post shot that point of contact on wall shifted left to right by just 1.5 millimeters he missed that's a margin of error about the width of a blade of grass

Cllr Jim O Boyle talks about the West Midlands Regional Energy System Operator (RESO) project.
Hello I'm councillor Jim O'Boyle from Coventry  City Council. I'm here today to announce that   Coventry City Council have entered into  a partnership with a government agency   and the Combined Authority to bring together both  energy companies and suppliers and specialists to   understand how energy of the future is going to  supply both the businesses of the future and also   the housing of the future but it's also about  how we move away from fossil fuels to renewable   energy. Coventry is leading the way on climate  change and we've got lots of fantastic initiatives   in our city whether it's UK Battery  Industrialization Centre, whether it's having   the most electric vehicle charging points in the  country outside of London, whether it's turning   all our buses from diesel into electric, whether  it's trialling a new very light rail system. All   of these things are pointing in the direction of  the green industrial revolution not just about   in effect having clean green energy but also  having the jobs and the economic opportunities   that that then provides. So we want to bring  these partners together to understand both how we   get renewable energy away from fossil fuels and  how we also source that energy and actually store   that energy where it needs to go in a clean,  green way. So, today as I said it's our one   and a half million pound innovative idea to  bring the specialist together to understand   how Coventry can lead the way on clean green  renewable energy for the economy of the future,   for the businesses of the future, for our people  today in order to protect and save our planet.

Implementing Class/ID, Floats, and Clears to Position Elements
hi this is bill coming to you in spring 2021 uh with a little announcement before the this video starts i made this video in fall 2020 and in fall 2020 we were trying to implement a rule called overflow auto you can see that in our section left and section right that was not working and working all that well so i've removed it from the work that we're going to be doing in spring 2021 and moving forward we won't be implementing that as well we'll be using a different way with our floats so please ignore all references to and discussions of overflow auto in this video and in any document that you see on the screen our current documents do not have it you will not be needing it for the work that we're going to be doing all right thanks for understanding that i just have not had time to remake the videos over again so please just ignore that overflow auto and you'll be all set looking forward to seeing all your work and now back to your regularly scheduled this video is going to follow up on the video where we talked about positioning elements using classes and ids and floats and you'll recall that we are trying to position one of our portfolio items and associated content on the left side of the screen and the other one on the right side of the screen so please if you have not excuse me if you have not watched that video first please make sure you do because that goes over the concepts that we'll be covering in this video you will also need to have open the word document that i provided in the assignment for today that is also on the coding page i'd like you to have your web page open of course filezilla as well as brackets you will need open your portfolio.html and your main.css now i apologize if you hear some hammering or drilling or sawing in the background i'm having some work done in the house today and i had hoped to get this video done early early this morning but i was not able to so this is the only time today i really have to do this so i apologize uh if you hear any of that hopefully it won't be too much of a nuisance all right um so as i said we're going to be positioning our portfolio items on the left and on the right with the associated content on the left and on the right the way we are going to be doing that is we're going to be applying uh classes to our section properties we're going to add the left and a right class to our section properties and we're going to do the same thing in our html so let's go ahead and get started and we're going to follow along with this document and the way i'd like you to go ahead and do this is to uh complete each step along the way i'll talk about one thing press pause on the video and then continue on as you are as you go while we are doing this we are going to be preparing uh parts of our css and html documents for responsive uh coding and design we're going to be getting that to that in detail in a few weeks essentially in a responsive design you are coding your page so that it will display display properly regardless of the screen size in order to do that we need to ensure that we don't have hard pixelized widths pixelized widths are static they are not flexible or responsive so we are going to be in making sure our widths are going to be using percentages and since we already have heights and widths heart heights and widths in our image code we're going to have to remove those and we're going to be using the style sheet from now on to style our image sizes all right and so this first step in this document is to remove all heights and widths from images so you'll have only uh the alt text the title text and the img src so let's go ahead and do that let's open up our portfolio.html we'll scroll down to where all of our images are and you'll see that i have this height and width and i'm just going to remove that and again we are doing this so that we can control the widths of the images using css and then uh the aspect ratio will automatically uh work uh it will just dynamically show the corresponding correct height for whatever with the the image is placed inside and it's going to do that based on how we are our coding okay so i'm going to press save i'm not going to upload just yet because i really haven't made any changes that i'm going to represent but that's just the first step and again we're doing that so that it is so the images will become responsive okay let's see what's next the next thing on the sheet is i have basically a sample of the html that you are going to wind up with now you've already coded all of this and and if i've looked at it and we've talked about it then it's coded correctly and so you don't need to copy and paste this i just want you to make sure that you're seeing something similar on your pages now if you have a little bit different that's okay you just want to make sure that your headers and your figures and everything are set up the main things that we need to start with is we're going to be adding this class to the section element you don't yet have this on your page and if you recall we want to make sure that we have this section will be on the left so we're going to start with this and then the other section will be on the right so let's go ahead and i will see section left section right and let's go on over to our code and i'm going to find my first portfolio section here and i'm going to go class equals left just like that and then i'm going to scroll down to glass equals right you want to make sure that you have your quotation marks and you have your equal sign there's no spaces everything is all lowercase now if you do not have this uh commented out text please add that in it can just say end left or however you want it i'm gonna actually change this to end left because this is i like to name it the same as my class name so i know where that class ends so end left and i'm going to name this other one and write save now again i'm not going to upload just yet because we haven't made any changes to the styling adding these classes into the browse into the code won't have any effect on the layout until we start adding in the styles so let's see what's next on our document so add all that and everything else you should have something similar in there okay so the first thing in my css is i'm make sure that your page is styled so margin auto will center the boxes you'll recall from another video that we need to add this text align center so that our boxes that we have on the page are centered and we just want to make sure that everything is doing that and this is particularly important for our images as we get down to styling that so let's just take a look and see in the css and that's all the way up at the top and i do see my html text align center now you should also have this in here for the styling of the border box to make sure your boxes show up properly if you do not please make sure you see those box videos uh from the prior class or last week whenever they are appearing okay so that's already there so we don't have to do anything in any changes then what i'm going to do is i'm going to style or add the left and right divisions and i'm going to just copy and paste that and i'm going to put that right directly underneath the body tag i do this because i like to have my structural elements at the top of my css and my textual elements going down lower in my css it just helps me remember where things are this is an example of not necessarily clean coding but effective coding and effective communication because you're communicating with a future version of yourself so that you'll know where everything is now let's break down what we have on this page excuse me so section dot left and we know that this dot corresponds to the word class in the html so in the html the word class corresponds to the dot in our css and you'll notice how i have written this section dot left no spaces here and that's very important that you're not putting any spaces in all lowercase again that's very important too i'm calling it left because i am floating to the left and we want to make sure that our names for our classes correspond to what the element is doing so they're semantic they're meaningful i'm not going to name this section dot tree if i'm just floating something to the left i could name a class tree if what's going to be in the class is a tree but we want to make it meaningful so float left okay with 48 i'm gonna remove okay with this 48 and we're going to make it 48 because as we recall we wanted to be on the left half of the screen and 48 is a little less than half of a hundred percent and that extra percentages between the two 48 percent widths will give us a little bit of spacing between it and 48 is just a starting point you can change that if you if you want to okay that's certainly up to you now there is something else to explain about floats before we move forward and i want to apologize because i'm jumping in here with a new section to this video that i'm adding in spring 2021 when the original video was made in fall 2020 so what you're going to see now for all the post fall 2020 students is what your handout looks like currently the older ones uh looked a little bit different so i apologize for for adding this edition and i hope that doesn't add confusion you'll notice that what is missing from these is that overflow auto which excuse me we had tried last semester to use but was not really working as intended so i've taken it out you will notice um this line of code that is now on your sheets called the div class clear and it says in the comments necessary after the last floated element so content will appear below it properly and this is something that is important for understanding what floats are doing when you create floated elements and you place them next to each other such as we're doing with left and right it appears or you would think that it would appear that stuff would normally just appear next to each other as they are over here and and but what happens is the browser doesn't really recognize that the floated elements are there imagine something floating up above the ground okay floating and it's just sort of hovering there and that's what the floats are doing they're sort of just sort of hovering or the browser understands them just sort of hovering up above the page like this and if you don't convince the browser that there is actually content there stuff will slide up underneath it anything that you code after the floated elements will slide up underneath it and the floated element stuff will appear on top of it just like if you've got something floating at the top of the water right and resting on the surface all the little fishies and stuff swim underneath it just fine but what we need to do is we need to convince the browser that there are elements there the h3 the figure the paragraph all this stuff is actually there so that it will appear properly the way that you want it to and the stuff below it will continue up to appear below it and not go underneath it and that is what this uh excuse me wrong document this div class clear does already for you okay it um convinces the browser that those elements are there and that the code should just continue on below as you're going along so what i need you to do is i need you to copy this code from here go over to your portfolio.html and paste that in underneath the last closing section ending your right floated element so and on your main.css you already have that clear as part of your template and if you don't see it there you can add this in this is the css that controls the clear division that you have just created this dot corresponds to the class and now we've made it clear and clear both is the rule that basically tells the browser what to do it's a little confusing i understand that but the main point and the main rule that you need to remember and write this down somewhere because it's going to come up again as we are constantly floating elements right left is that you always need your clear after your last floated element in a row okay so we have a left and a right and a clear left right clear left right clear that's how it always works left right clear left right clear now eventually we are going to be floating multiple elements next to each other three four five six not even flat many depending on how many one but after that right floated one or that last one that's there you always need to have a clear uh so you can move down to the next next row okay this ends the addition to this video the video will now continue on with the older one so i'm going to save this and i'm actually going to go and upload now main.css oops it's reconnecting styles [Music] all right so now based on what we have done so far i should expect that the this red line freaking fog and associated image and and the list will appear on the left and duck creek river march and image and and list will appear on the right now i'm going to do the hard refresh um which i think was a shift command r and there it is it's on the left and on the right but that's weird look at this my image is totally still too wide even though i have removed my heights and widths right and the reason is no heights and what's in there at all the reason with is i haven't told the image in the style sheet how to behave yet it's just sort of sitting here and this is the size these are the sizes of my image if i do view image we'll be able to see it's pretty much that size now your images might be gigantic and that's okay we're going to do a little styling right now to fix that all up let's go ahead and see what that is so you'll see that next on the list then style your image so it will be in the middle of the divisions you create style the width to your tastes okay so here we are styling our figure and you recall last week when we were doing html5 i said eventually we're going to be styling the figure on our page so i'm going to do that copy i'm going to style my figure and i'm going to go back to my style sheet and i'm going to put this right over here after the section pop it in there style it with 80 margin auto we know that margin auto centers things on the page this width of 80 percent is going to make this figure 80 percent of the section size you recall from our understanding of of a width that is always relative to the box that isn't inside of so here my section is 48 of the screen okay but when i'm styling my figure and i'm making this 80 percent it is 80 of this box here it's not 80 of the entire screen size and that's because this is sitting inside of the other figure is sitting inside of section so we have to add that styling in and the margin auto uh positions it now again this is a default width you don't have to keep it that width you can change it make it bigger smaller however you want i just like you to try to implement some sort of width at the moment excuse me so now let's go back to our word i'm not going to upload yet because we're not really done with our image at the moment now i'm going to go back to my word document and you'll see then style the image adjust the border background and padding and styling to your tastes now the key here is this max with 100 what this does is it forces the image to only i'm sorry it forces the image to take up the entire width of the figure and be the exact size that it needs to be in other words it will no longer override the box right it will sit there inside of it and be that size so the maximum width that that image will be is going to be a hundred percent of the box that it is sitting inside of and that's what that maximum width element is it's a very powerful element because it forces things uh to be that that's the size that you want them to be even if the image is gigantic it will still shrink down to fit inside the box that you want so let's copy that and i've already got some stuff for my image so i don't need to copy the whole thing i'm just going to pop that max width in there there's a background you'll see that the background color my background color is already white so i don't need to pop that in there either you can change this to be whatever it is that you want of course all right so now i have a figure width of 80 and that is this box here is 80 of the section box and now what i'm doing is i'm forcing my image to fill the entire box here okay and not go over it's going to fit neatly in there the width will snap into place and the height will automatically correspond correctly to that width so you won't have to do any calculations anymore about any of that it will automatically appear the right height that it needs to be all right let's make sure i've saved everything i did not so i'm going to save i'm going to go back to filezilla refresh i'll build my portfolio i don't think i made a change to it but just in case i did styles files name i'm going to go back and if everything is working properly i should see that these two images are going to snap directly into place again i'm going to do my hard refresh and i'd like you to get used to doing that shift command r on on the mac boom and there it is appearing exactly as we want two images side by side you can see how look this looks just like that two images side by side with a header and some content underneath two images side by side with a header and some content underneath now you can make certain changes now to this if you don't like the way it looks so let's say i want to go in and to my css and my h3 right now i have text align left i want that maybe in the middle center let's give myself a little margin bottom let's say five index just a little bit of extra space and then i also want my figure to be let's say 98 of the width i don't the 80 might be a little too small for my tastes right now i'm going to save it and i'm also going to drop this down to 2 em for my math 32 and refresh now we have the name is centered and pictures are bigger than they were before and just to show you what that box is this the section box i'm going to just draw a border here for you very quickly um let's make it uh make it a little gray color i'll do one on the left and on this down on the right okay so you can see this is the section box around here this is the figure is taking up 98 of the section and the image is stretching to fill that 98 percent completely and if i change the percentage of this figure back to let's say i want to make it 60 i'll make it really small so you can see the difference you can see how tiny that is right there that's definitely 60 um don't really like that you can see this one shrunk down also now if i didn't want this one to shrink down if i wanted this one to stay small and that one to stay big i could style that actually if i wanted to i can make this figure dot small and then i'll make a figure that large i don't know why it does that 58 percent margin auto middle okay so now that i've had the figured out small and figured out large i have to add them to the portfolio as well this is the first one class equals small class equals large and this is how you create unique elements on your page by adding these classes now if i knew that this was going to be only the only time i used large and small i could have made these ids and that would have been appropriate but i might use them again you never know so let's go upload foreign downstairs and there we have it now this looks terrible but this is just giving you an idea of how things can uh actually work so i'm going to go ahead and take this all out i'll do that on my own but good luck getting this done if you have questions please let me know first email the people in your coding group and see if they can help you with those questions but if then not either bring them to class because we'll be working on this in class a little bit just to go through your troubleshooting and ask questions or if you want to just shoot me an email too that'll be fine otherwise have a great day i'll see you later

Alan Olsen's American Dreams Al Hulvey 9/10/11 Pt 5
welcome back this is alan olsen with america dreams keys to life success where we talk about how to live the life that you want to what are your dreams what do you want to like what defines success so nadine it's it's a rough economy out there yeah unemployment is really prevalent and just last week bank of america announced that they will cut 30 000 jobs by 2013. also fremont solyndra has laid off a myriad of employees with no notice no advance notice it's been really tough for people out there this is nuts you know but unfortunately i think it's going to be a trend that that continues on the deloitte did a study a couple years back and they said that starting in 2010 and going throughout the next 15 years 80 of the workforce will be retired 80 and they said that uh for every five jobs retiring only one will be replaced and you know it's interesting it's uh i think what we're seeing is not just the loss of jobs but also the change in industry you know a couple things there's a my brother sent me an email this week and it was entitled nine things that will disappear in our lifetime and i'd like to just read what what they are uh he said number one the post office he says people have they quit sending the mail couriers typically you open up your mailbox today it's a lot of junk mail and bills right so and and he said that also federal express and ups and email have just about done in what the post office used to do and that uh even as much as they continue to increase their their their mail fees is still not enough to cover the cost because of the lost revenue people not using as much second area that they said would disappear is the check interesting i agree i agree on that it's unbelievable it's like uh you know we grew up with you you just write out a check my wife goes to the grocery store she's still one of the few that writes checks and they kind of look at him like what are you doing you know don't you have a debit card or a credit card because no i just write checks so it's uh interesting so we're starting to see but they say that that by 2018 the check will have all but vanished um next one the newspaper yes the newspaper now i think that that will not go away in its entirety but but a lot of people well the newer generation you're going to find is uh very proficient with electronics they get their mail online they text i i do a lot of business with with the younger generation don't touch the paper they don't touch the paper it's all done online very computer proficient it's just me and also the social networking they uh you know their news seems to travel by uh texting and facebook and you know it's like help kids learn about things today is just amazing so it's very it's changing so that the next area is the book the the the printed book we've already seen barnsley noble and uh a couple of these you know corners coming back completely closing down that's amazing it's uh more job losses there too you know if i was a kid saying that we'll have no more books i would have been just thrilled but but it's the e-book it's being replaced by the e-book the e-book and even colleges are using them even college colleges are are selling electronic books versus the paper book that's amazing amazing so the next area is that the landline telephone landline telephone you know a lot of people are replacing that with a mobile phone uh why pay two bills you think about it you've got 911 now on on your mobile phones so what's the use of the landline so music music is one of the the saddest parts of this changing story uh the music industry is dying a slow death uh not just because of the illegal downloading but it's because of the lack of innovative new music being given a chance uh by the people to um you know to listen to new bands and and new new programs you know i don't know if it's it's i don't know if it is dying or if it's just evolving into something else that's it that's interesting but i know that i know that what we grew up with in the the 60s 70s 80s it's still a hot market but it's all nostalgia today so mexico television uh you know i read an article today apple apple is coming out with a new apple tv it's supposed to really challenge the networks uh interesting stuff apple continues to innovate and the other one is things that you own which is interesting the the you know they're saying that we're going to go to electronics and needing uh you know on one of the breaks you mentioned something about the government and some of these other countries and what was that well well basically uh the more that we're taxed the more that the government wants to provide for those that don't have the less things we will be able to have so we will be owning less things and mentioning on the tv uh just quickly i'm getting rid of my cable i'm going to go do ruku device and and get everything online you don't need cable tv anymore you can you can get it all online so yeah unfortunately what we're going to lose in all this with the internet coming up in the social media is a lot of our privacy too nothing will nothing will remain there that that people don't know about but as we go through it is something think about the job market is evolving we're seeing people laying off but new industries are coming up um to replace those that are that are uh are dying this is alan olsen with the american dreams network the keys to life success where we talk about how to live life you want to what are your dreams what do you want out of life and what defines success we appreciate you being with us today and look forward to having you join us next week

Brentwood Tapestry by Brentwood Townswomen's Guild
[Applause] so [Music] tonight on wednesday the 22nd of may 1991 we have been invited to a reception here at the new brentwood library opened just a week ago today by her royal highness the princess royal the reception is to inaugurate the hanging in the library of brentwood town women's guild's just completed tapestry entitled impressions of brentwood more particularly the reception is to show appreciation of the work of kathy povey whose concept it was and who led her craft section of the town's women's guild in its creation ably assisted by her husband phil sitting down um yes um he is i'm glad you might come to me um this is yes good evening ladies and gentlemen honored guests particularly the chairman of our council councillor roy cross and his lady wife fellow members husbands and friends it is with much pleasure and a lot of pride that i welcome you here tonight to celebrate the hanging of the brentwood township tapestry in this library the tapestry was worked by eleven members of the arts and crafts group under the guidance of section chairman kathy purdy as you probably all know by now and the theme is impressions of brentwood those of you that have seen it have probably gathered that we are particularly proud of it and those people i've spoken to tonight think it's lovely so i'm so glad that you've enjoyed looking at our beautiful work i must tell you that it all began as a very odd remark from kathy when she and i went to liberties to look at the national tapestry which was on display there and kathy said to me wouldn't it be lovely if we could have a guild tapestry of brentwood and i said well lovely yes but what an undertaking but i could see the seed was beginning to grow in cathy's mind and all the way home the sea began to germinate rapidly and i said well really cathy what about the money so she said yes well what about the money we shall have to i said well first of all you've got to sell it to the guild and if you can sell it to the guild they might agree to give you a loan so kathy went cap in hand to the guild and sold it hook line and sinker and the guild gave her a loan to start the planning which was the most important part of the tapestry for five months kathy and phil povey labored over the planning of this tapestry and that was before even a stitch was sewn and eventually it was ready to be worked it was really quite a problem in many ways and i do know that kathy and phil had many obstacles to overcome not least of all money because the more the tapestry progressed the more money was needed and kathy and phil povey opened their house and their gardens time and time again raising money bring them buys tea parties garden parties anything to raise money and i remember on one occasion she said to me i'm having this great garden party gloria and i've got to raise i think it was 250 pounds so we all racked our cupboards and we just shoved everything we caught into the garden party and it started tipping down with rain two days before the garden party and it tipped down with rain on the day of the garden party and i know many of us went to kathy's house never hearing a word about what was going to happen but we needn't acquire it kathy's home was like a mini market the bedrooms every bedroom in the house had things for sale and people selling and the downstairs room the same and in the main bedroom the tapestry was laid out on the bed half finished looking just a little bit wanting and as we all gazed at it and thought oh dear it really does need a bit more money so we rushed about in all the rooms spending a bit more money and buying more cakes so that the target would be reached and i think that i'm writing saying that the target was reached and kathy said to me a couple of days later heaving a great sigh of relief we've now been able to pay the guild back the loan that we had of them so you see that was only evens at that stage there are so many people who did work behind the scenes on this tapestry people that are not attached to the guild not least the staff of these stitches at king's road they bent over backwards frontwards and sideways to make sure that kathy had all the material she needed and not only that they took 10 or gave us 10 discount on all the materials i'm sure they're being represented or should be represented here tonight here could you raise your hand about 50 of the staff i'm sure that they were as enthusiastic about the tapestry by the time it was completed as we were it would be impossible to thank individually all the people that have contributed to the tapestry i know those 11 people of the arts and crafts group gave their all and when i looked at it tonight i thought well i know that kathy and phil's heart and soul has been woven into this tapestry but i'm sure the heart and soul of all the 11 people or the hearts and souls of all the 11 people have been woven into that tapestry too it is a tremendously proud moment for us and i know kathy is a lover of tapestry and apart from that she really wanted to perpetuate our name in this town we work hard to keep our guild going and you know townswoman are at their very best when they are being challenged so as far as i'm concerned those that have been close to the tapestry we do say to all of you who contributed in any way at all thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything you have done for us the tapestry after completion two and a half years it took and six hundred pounds in money but it has now been insured for five thousand pounds so we're hoping that if it does come to any grief that we can at least cover the cost you know the unsung hero of this tapestry really is phil covey phil did everything he could to support kathy he worked like a children he has been good tempered i don't i don't know how many thousands of cups of coffee he must have made he he traveled hundreds of miles with kathy when they sorted out the the um particular panels of brentwood they were going to work and uh apart from all that when kathy was pouring over the complexities of the tapestry phil donned his penny and went into the kitchen and got the dinner and washed up without without a grumble and also he is he is a professional photographer and his work has been invaluable to us in the tapestry phil without you the tapestry would not have been made and i think that you know obviously it was a team effort but the mount of guild members who have said to me uh the tremendous work that phil povey has put in behind the scenes was far over and beyond the call of duty bill we do thank you very much indeed and thank everybody else involved we do have a little presentation to you both i'd like you to both come forward if you will thank you of all the hours and the love and the tender care you have given the tapestry you will give to your plants and also we have a very remarkable card here which is done by another one of our artistic people it is a painting of the shrub so that that is something that you will be able to keep it was done by stella clapham it was very good and so much nicer so much nicer than any card we could ever buy so so we knew you would appreciate it and to you both with our love and our gratitude for what you have done to perpetuate our name thank you both very much indeed i will admit that some of it has been blind panic and sheer terror i mean there were times when i couldn't see the end at all but i do think it has been worthwhile and i must give a great deal of thanks to all the team that's worked with me because they really have worked very hard and with such a big deal and i think we've made a lot of friends and we're very very happy to see all of you here tonight and also i'd like to say that there's a scrapbook which i've made which is the tapestry from beginning to end and would you please all sign the visitors pages over there and then we will stick it in the scrapbook and once again thank all of you very very much for making it such a success right you can wander around whatever you will but presentation is now over we didn't [Music] oh [Music] so [Music] you [Music] you

More Lore, No Bore - Ep 2 - Twitch
[Music] hello and welcome back to uh more lord no boar here with me is our resident lore expert joshua how you doing josh uh pretty good you know i can't complain can't complain you could though we can't we all could uh i mean i can make up some reasons i guess um no it's good good to hear that um as we heard a little bit earlier in the uh army or bournemouth segment you spoke of twitch and so we're going to hear a little more about twitch and of course as always the floor is yours uh so twitch i specifically chose this week because usually we go over characters that have tons of lore and when we do the lower me or bore me i'm trying to rush everything in in a minute but twitch is unique in the sense that he hasn't really been touched in a long time and he's one of the few champions who when they did this lore revamp was he one of i think two or three characters that was not touched at all um so basically i'll i'm going to start with his color story and then i will go into more details about those small changes he's gotten over the years um basically in the color story we're introduced to a hive incident report in which a team responds to a some criminal activity in a certain sector uh it's basically a sinkhole that was being used to produce some kind of baby formula out of human excrement they explain uh they find lots of people dead and they find two survivors the first name rock rock kintava a facility researcher was brought in for an interview but their face the lower half of their face was completely liquidated by twitch's chemicals and so they decided that they're going to try to get a replacement jaw for them uh sadly this takes too much time so they move on to their second uh person named valerie val valerie olant who is a sludge analyst uh they are screaming about how the a giant rat had attacked them had killed everybody and of course nobody believes that a giant rat just came out of nowhere and they asking was it like a rat like man and they're like no it was a exact quote is you're not listening it's a homicidal psychopathic giant freaking rat in a waste coast um so like they're going over the notes and they finally just come to the conclusion that this was just an enormous rat screaming at people kicking over vats who was then spitting in all their food the lab was sealed they were all trapped in there with uh twitch who was melting people's eyeballs with his acid and the way they could one of the victims uh the victim who is currently talking explains that they couldn't see him because of the acid melting their eyeballs but they could smell them and apparently the only thing he said inches away from their face was nobody steal twitch's juice i love george i'm sorry um apparently his his smell is so strong that it uh the just it's like lingering with the person and sends them into like a shock like they start freaking out they go into another like up like they're twitching they're screaming and they haven't stop they continue to scream for apparently hours um they then go back to the first person who has written a has written out their testimony uh and it gives some small details on twitch as a person uh it just says his name is twitch he's male they don't know his age he's four nine he's less than 99 pounds wet uh distinguishing fish features is a giant rat uh and do not engage uh so this is basically all the lore we've had on twitch uh originally twitch uh was just a rat that lived under zone that had been transformed due to the chemicals that uh zan had poured into the sewers zone being what's under pilt over it's known for its seedier experiments for example orianna victor blitzcrank zach uh the chem barons they tend are in zahn so you can imagine what's being poured out by uh you know these characters he is related to zac in some way but we haven't really gotten any explanation on that um he's mostly just known for at this point kind of going through the sewers and looking for treasures and collecting them uh he considers himself royalty he's building a throne of in his kingdom of filth uh and trying to plot the downfall of humanity but he really doesn't have a plan or really anything uh twitch mostly like it's just very interesting to see that the whole world in room terra changed but the only thing that changed for twitch was instead of being a rat that mutated he was just a born a humanoid rat now uh his lore over since the beginning of the game really hasn't changed at all he's one of the few constants in league uh it's not even really i would i don't want to discredit twitch because he's not i don't want to say he's like a minor character because he's very interesting but there's no real plot with him he's not involved in the story of zahn uh he's not involved in piltover he's not like being developed and it's kind of a shame in my opinion because twitch is this chaotic force yeah he's an interesting character yeah i i personally love twitch i think he's probably in my top 10 characters and uh he doesn't really get much attention uh echo echo mundo uh and though victor are the more main characters in zahn uh singed is another but like we haven't really been able to see what twitch can do uh like he's clearly not a good guy he's attacking humans and plotting their downfall and i'm burning your eyes out with acid i mean it's burning yeah and making gum statues so i personally really would like to see more from twitch coming forward but it doesn't seem that he's the top priority of riot he hasn't really fit in any other stories and honestly even the artwork they have for his story is a really outdated version of zaan and it doesn't even really involve twitch so so let's talk about zone maybe a little bit and just if it so it seems like zan if i'm catching this correctly is uh maybe the uh fantasy world equivalent of some place with nuclear fallout seems like it's very polluted and everything that comes out of there has something either robotic or chemical about it would that be correct yes so what happened was piltover was hoping to make a trade route uh kind of similar to the panama canal for like and a horrible incident occurred i believe it was an earthquake jana ended up being a hero in this story uh she ended up saving lots of lives but it basically throws on into this lower class upper class piltover is literally built on top is on like there is a platform oh like on top of zone that has piltover and the poor district of piltover is considered zones like rich class uh like so there's clearly class issues going on there but like there's lots of chemicals like um orianna for example in her story she goes down to help people and she ends up breathing in the smog that slowly ends up killing her and her father's trying to save her so he slowly replaces the dying body parts with robotics victor another person who went down there and saw the horrors that were happening was trying to save people by turning them into robots which is how blitzcrank was created and jace not understanding came down and killed a bunch of people because victor had successfully been turning people into robots where they were still humans like they still could think and talk and victor jace came in and destroyed all of them because he thought victor was making a robotic army uh erga for example is taking the idea of killing uh killing the weak and making strong and zan warwick was a murderer who was experimented on heavily by singed and turned into a monster that's murdering people mundo has killed ekko at one point he goes around just butchering people the only reason ekko is still alive is because as he was decapitated he was able to pull his z drive and reverse time uh zahn is a terrible place to live the only two major two major characters that are like super good are echo and janna janna's revered as like a goddess zion an echo is somebody who strives to make song better um otherwise like victor could also be argued as a good guy but it's kind of hard because jace while he's put it bluntly an [ __ ] uh it's uh he like he was not aware of what he was doing like this is basically a toxic sludge wasteland where creatures like twitch ergot uh oh zach also is a good guy but twitch urgot warwick singed are able to thrive and survive off these people's suffering and uh yeah it's pretty much everything gooey and poison comes out of sand it seems like besides well not everything with poison in the game but poison in general it's very poisoned yeah uh to put it in a pretty good sense uh noxus which you know is known for it's like it's they're not exactly the nicest people when somebody lets them down swain sent ergot to zan azan prison because he wanted to really get rid of ergot which should really tell you how about how bad zone must be where noxus doesn't there's nothing in noxus that's bad enough for urgot so he he figured zone would be the worst place to send them is this when ergot was already as his present self or was he a person at the time that he went there he was a person and uh ergot was used parts in his prison to basically rebuild himself oh that's nice yeah um in both iterations yeah uh ergot has been the head like executioner of noxus multiple times uh and one time he was rewarded uh after his death by being brought back to life as the like the original ergot was brought back to life and uh made into like this ship kind of like scion whereas the new one is uh swain did not want er got around anymore basically sent them to zan on a fake mission he was captured sent to this prison and now is like the old noxus like if you're not strong you do not deserve to live and he's in his story he murders children he literally murders a group of children and leaves one alive to tell them he's like you're the strong one now you work for me cool yeah son sucks yeah i mean basically uh pretty accurate yeah sounds like that's pretty accurate judge uh jinx and ziggs are also there but uh and they're chaotic neutral in their comp in ziggs's comic he's basically abandoned by heimerdinger and jinx takes him in and jinx does not believe ziggs is real by the way she thinks he's an imaginary friend um and they ride rockets throughout zahn blowing stuff up and doing whatever their hearts content usually ending in the deaths of quite a few people cool i mean you know jinx is one of my favorite characters so i'll just say cool yeah i figured uh yeah jinx's comic was very interesting uh zahn but yeah zan overall is a very painful place to live very few people like the idea of like uh ekko's parents work like i think it was like 18 19 hours a day in a factory to try and get echo up into an academy and piltover and he doesn't wish to go but because he wants to make zhan better and he doesn't want to leave his parents but he literally like there's people the idea of getting out of zan is so hard so unattainable that like once you are there you like once you're born is on your enzyme like you don't usually get out of zone like echo is a boy genius that is like so talented and his parents are working so hard that he's probably the only character i know of that has a potential chance why also but she got picked up by the police uh and that is why lion echo are the only two that have basically escaped on are the potential to i should say because echo refuses to that is a good chunk of story a lot of interesting facts i hope in the future we'll end up hearing more about zone through uh other characters but i don't want to cover too much just in case we do and uh yeah i don't know do you have any sort of closing thoughts on that you want like what's the impactful thing you want people to remember about twitch uh i would like people to kind of demand more from riot we need more twitch twitch is an amazing character that needs to be shown some love we've i i'm a huge ionia supporter but we've been getting so much ionia lore we've been getting so much noxious floor i think it's time we got we have to focus on other characters like twitch rek'sai like the stories uh the stories can keep developing but it needs to be evenly spread and we can't just keep ignoring certain champions like twitch yeah twitch is i've always loved twitch's voice lines i if you haven't played twitch i'd suggest just playing them hop into a normal game because his voice lines will keep you uh laughing they're just great they're just so disgusting and uh in every way shape or form it's just like it's like someone talking if they were just trying to gross you out you know like that's just very much needed character yeah so all right well thank you joshua this has been a very enlightening uh zon twitch experience and uh look forward to hearing more from you next week thank you for having me again of course yeah it's been awesome uh everyone thank you guys so much for tuning in hope you enjoyed uh more lore no boar uh with myself and joshua and we will see you guys next week for episode 23 of the podcast as well as episode three of more lore no more have a great night and thank you for

HEARTS AND HANDS|| O HENRY-EASY EXPLANATION-ICSE TREASURE TROVE - ICSE SHORT STORY - ENG. LITERATURE
hello everybody welcome to word shard so today we are going to start with the chapter hearts and hands which is written by o henry this is a picture of o henry and this is a chapter which is for the icc students for class 9 and class 10. before we start with the chapter it is necessary that we know something about the poet uh something about the author so let's see hearts and hands was originally published under his pseudonym sydney porter so the real name of o henry is william sidney potter okay so he wrote with the pseudonym that means he took a pen name which is o henry in 1902 the story is full of twists and ward play so this is very important because all of the stories of o henry has a lot of twist in it in the climax you see something very strange happening okay it will shock you as was o henry's own life so o henry's the the life for henry was also quite uh it was full of twists and due to awkward moments he was sentenced to serve five years in federal prison so he had to spend his life in the prison for how many years for five years at the age of 15 porter that is william sidney porter left school and started working in a drug store and he also had worked in the bank and after 1897 he was convicted of embezzling money and was sentenced to five years imprisonment what do you mean by this embezzlement embezzlement means stealing he was convicted he was a convict he was convicted that he has stolen somebody else's money after fleeing to honduras then returning to austin to be with his sick wife where he turned himself in so when he was take when he was imprisoned he started writing stories why did he write the story so that he could earn money for his daughter okay so after being released from the prison in 1901 he changed his name to o henry so that he could hide his identity you know he had spent his life in the prison for five years so he wanted to hide or shield his true identity so he took the pseudonym o henry okay which makes his unexpected sources of compassion particularly poignant this story is featured in the unreliable narrator okay now we will move on to the story see first we will try to understand the setting of the story that is where the story was held at denver what is then where is denver denver is the capital of colorado and see in this map this is american map this is colorado this is the place where colorado can be seen so the capital of this place was denver okay we will be talking about washington we will be talking about colorado that is denver and kansas these three places we are going to deal with see the whole story takes place in a train which has left which has started its journey towards the east it is going to the east and this place this denver is the place where the whole story takes place okay in the train the train stops at denver people gets in this inside the train and then the whole story takes place okay now there was an influx influx means a lot of passengers whenever a train stops you seen a number of people gets down then a number of people get inside the train so there was an influx of passengers a number of people got inside the train into the coaches of the east bound b m express so this is the name of the train i told you that the story takes place on a train and this is the b and m express east bound that means the train was going towards the east as i told you the train was going towards the east okay now in one coach there sat a very pretty young woman dressed in elegant elegance very gracefully she was dressed very beautifully she was dressed with a lot of taste and surrounded by all the luxurious comforts of an experienced traveler experienced traveler means he she was very fond of traveling she traveled a lot from this place to that place and she was a very you know he was an elegant woman she was from a rich family perhaps she was used to carrying expensive stuffs with her so among the newcomers were two young men one of handsome presents with a bold frank countenance countenance means appearance so now two people when the train stopped at denver there are two people who got into the train we are talking about these two people among these two people one person was very handsome was a young man okay he was very handsome very beautiful i mean very smart bold and frank and his manners were quite posh the other a ruffled that means the other person was a bit upset glump-faced person that means he looked gloomy and sad and serious heavily built and roughly dressed questions can come that please describe the uh two men who got inside the train okay so you are going to describe you're going to talk about these two people how they looked one one looked smart the other other one was ruffled glam-faced heavily built roughly dressed these are the words that you will write in your answer now these two people were handcuffed together this is an important part of the story what do you mean by handcuffed together when a person is taken to the jail the policeman uses this kind of handcuffs so that the the the criminal cannot run away okay so this is the handcuff now these two people who got inside the train were handcuffed to one another that means one hand of the first person and the other hand of the second person were handcuffed with these handcuffs okay that is they were linked to one another as they passed down the aisle aisle means this is the place which you call an eye okay when you get inside the train over here you can walk between the seats isn't it you can walk between the seats so this is the aisle where you can walk so these two people who had got inside the train who were handcuffed to one another they walked through the aisle of the coach the only vacant seat that means the only empty seat that was over there offered was a reversed one facing the attractive young woman we already know that there was a young woman sitting inside the train already now at denver these two people get inside the train and there were no vacant or empty seats except the one opposite to the young lady so they come to that place to take the seat now here the linked couple now question can come what do you mean by linked couple the two people who got inside the train at denver they call the linked couple why because they were connected by the help of the handcuffs one hand of one person and the other hand of the other person was linked okay with the help of the handcuffs so they sat obviously they have to sit in one place only if your hand is tied to the hand of your friend then you cannot sit apart isn't it so you will sit together so they sat together just opposite to the young woman the young woman's glance fell upon them with a distant swift disinterest now obviously this woman is a very elegant lady okay from a very luxurious family so she did not want to look at these two people but she just looked once with a distant swift disinterest just a glance just one look she gave to them then with a lovely smile brightening her countenance and a tender pink tingey her rounded cheeks now see as soon as she looked at these two people she recollected that one of the two was her friend long lost friend and she was feeling a bit shy pink tinging of her cheeks means she felt a bit shy when you feel shy you will see that your cheeks turn a pic take a pinkish glow okay it turns red because you blush because you are feeling shy so suddenly the woman feels shy this shows that maybe with one of these two men she had a kind of love affair or maybe she used to love this person okay when she spoke her voice okay she held out her little grey gloved hand so she held out her great loved hand that means she was wearing gloves which were clay in color and she wanted to shake hands with the person whom he knew whom she already knew when she spoke her voice full sweet and deliberate deliberate means she was conscious she knew that she was a very elegant woman she could talk very well okay she was not nervous proclaimed that its owner was accustomed to speak and be heard so when she spoke she already knew that when she spoke people listened because she was a good speaker she could speak well in public okay all the words that are written in red are the meanings of the difficult words you can write them down in your books if you want with a pencil well mr easton if you will make me speak first so we come to know that one person of the linked couple was mr easton so this linked couple among one among them between them one was called mr eastern and this mr easton was known to the young woman don't you ever recognize old friends when you meet them in the west so when you meet people in the west don't you recognize them when you meet somebody in some other place for example if you meet your friend in dhikha won't you recognize him or her obviously you will recognize so the woman asks her long lost friend don't you recognize me the younger man browsed himself browsed himself me she suddenly gets excited sharply at the sound of her voice seemed to struggle with a slight embarrassment he was embarrassed why if you are handcuffed and if you suddenly meet your friend you will be embarrassed because you will you will start thinking that what will the other person think i'm handcuffed am i a criminal what she she's going to think which he threw off instantly and then clasped that means shook hands her fingers with her with his left hand now with which hand does mr easton shake her hand with his left hand it is miss fairchild he said with a smile i will ask you to excuse the other hand it's otherwise engaged just at present see my other hand is engaged is a bit busy what does he mean from here he tries to say that look my right hand is a bit busy because it is handcuffed so i cannot shake hands with that so that is why i have to shake my hands with my left hand he slightly raised his right hand bound at the wrist by the shining bracelet to the left one of his companion so we know that his right hand was tied or handcuffed to the left hand of the other person so he shows that see my right hand is a little bit busy it is handcuffed so i am shaking hands with the lift the glad look in the girl's eyes slowly changed to a bewildered horror now obviously if you see your friend with a handcuff in his hand then you will obviously be very scared you will start thinking that my friend has turned into a criminal my goodness he's going to the jail his hand is handcuffed normally criminals wear handcuffs isn't it it is not a bracelet that you are wearing it is not a you know it is not a kind of uh bangle that you are wearing it is a it is a hint of a criminal it is a bracelet or it is a handcuff which a criminal is seen to wear when the police drags you to jail then you wear a handcuff the glow faded from her cheeks so she becomes very sad she's sad why because she thinks her friend is a criminal her lips parted in a vague relaxing distress distress means she is worried because she is afraid that her friend is a criminal eastern with a little laugh as if amused was about to speak again when the other four stalled him when the other means when the other person that is the other one who was handcuffed with the with mr easter there was another person who was handcuffed with mr easton so now this person starts speaking who is this person that gloomy that glam-faced person who was very you know roughly built that person starts speaking four stall means stopped eastern from speaking and he himself starts speaking the glump-faced man had been watching the girl's countenance with veiled glances what do you mean by veil plants pale chances means he was not looking directly at the girl or mr easton but he was listening to what they were speaking from his keen shrewd eyes keen schrodinger means he is a very clever person this club-faced man is a clever person and carefully he was listening to the conversation between miss fairchild and mr eastern suddenly he starts speaking what does he say you will excuse me for speaking miss but i see you are acquainted with the martial so now this man the glumpfiest man starts speaking and what does he say he says that miss fair child you must be a close friend to the martial so according to this clump-faced man who is mr eastern mr easton is the marshal mr eastern is an officer is a military is in the military forces he is a very high ranking officer in the military forces if you will ask him to speak a word for me when we get to the pen pen means prison he will do it and it will make things easier for me there so according to the glum faced person he that means the grumpfest person himself was the criminal and mr easton was the marshal was the police officer or the army officer and mr easton was actually taking the criminal to the prison okay and if miss fairchild would say some good words or request mr eastern to you know minimize the tenor or minimize or minimize the tenor of this criminals serve in the prison then my it might happen that mr eastern would listen to him he is taking me to 11 where are they going they're going to live in what prison a prison in kansas i already told you that we will be talking about kansas so kansas is a place where this prison is present leavenworth prison is in conscious it is seven years for counterfeiting what do you mean by counterfeiting for what crime is the person being taken to jail the person was being taken to jail because of counterfeiting that means he has deceived somebody he has put up false documents or forged something or done something wrong that is why he was taken to jail and for how many years would he have to stay there for seven years now let's see the map again this is washington we know this is washington okay and this is our denver so there is the east bound express which is going towards the east so from denver they're going to the east that means in kansas kansas is the place where live in what prison is present so they are going to to the prison so that the criminal can be put to gene okay now oh said the girl with a deep breath and returning color so that is what you are doing out here oh that means you are not the criminal that means mr eastern you are not the criminal you are taking the criminal to the prison a marshal so now the the woman is very much satisfied you know fascinated that okay the person whom for whom i have a kind of feeling or maybe the person whom i i have a deep love for that person is a martial that person works in the police in the army my dear miss fairchild so first miss fairchild had thought that his friend that her friend was a criminal now she has started thinking that no this person is is the martial so she's very satisfied my dream is fair child sadist and calmly i have to do something money has a way of taking wings unto itself this is an important line you may be asked what do you mean by this money has a way of taking wings unto itself that means whenever you have lose cash whenever you have some money in your hands you tend to spend it isn't it you you buy this you buy that you buy a plate of biryani you go and buy some chips and you spend the money so normally whenever you have money you tend to spend it so as if it will fly away if you have money okay and you know that it takes money to keep step with our crowd in washington so if we have so the person is living in washington so normally if you have to live in washington you have to compete with the people you will have to have some money okay so that you can keep yourself alive i saw this opening in the west and well a martian ship isn't quite as high a position as that of an ambassador but okay so he says that at least i am not as good as an ambassador an ambassador has a lot of money you know he is paid much more than a marshal he goes on saying this maybe the uh this woman had uh had a feeling for some other ambassador or something that is why they are talking about an ambassador maybe he wanted to mean that i have become a martial but at least i'm not an ambassador i'm not that rich the ambassador who is an ambassador representative we have no indian representative to different other countries that is an ambassador or you have representatives for certain products that is an ambassador said the girl warmly doesn't call anymore he didn't didn't ever have done so you want to know that and so now you are one of these dashing western heroes why western heroes because you know working in the police or in the army is something that is very adventurous you carry a gun okay you wear a nice and smart uniform so that is why you are like a hero it is far better than being an ambassador and you ride and shoot go into all kinds of dangers so that is obviously adventurous that's different from the washington life you have been missed from the old crowd so obviously you were missed i always have missed you but over here you were obviously enjoying your life you're having such a nice adventurous life the girl's eyes fascinated went back so now the girl is fascinated by what he what she has come to know that okay my friend my dear friend is a marshal over here and is spending a very adventurous life went back widening a little to rest upon the glittering handcuffs so she again looks at the handcuffs with a lot of fascination this time don't you worry about them miss said the other man all marshals handcuffed themselves to their prisoners to keep them from getting away mr eastern knows his business so see the now the glum faced man again starts speaking he says that normally a criminal is handcuffed with the police policeman or with the marshal so that he cannot run away they are traveling on a train so anytime the criminal can just run away in one station isn't it that is why the marshal has handcuffed himself with me so that i cannot run away who says this the glam-faced man will you see will we see you again in washington so the girl now wants to meet the marshall again and again that is she wants to meet mr easton not soon i think said eastern my butterflies butterfly days are over what do you mean by butterfly days over that means my happy my days for enjoyment is over now i have to work i have to earn money i love the west say the girl irrelevantly her eyes why did does she love the west because she does not want to leave this place she is very much attached to the place as well as the person mr easton will now live in the west in washington and so she also wishes to live in the same place with him her eyes were shining softly she looked away out of the car window so her eyes smiled she was feeling feeling a lot fascinated with the with the man and she looks outside the train she began to speak truly and simply without the clause of style and manner now she goes on speaking about herself mama and i spent the summer in denver so we lived in denver all the summer time we lived over here she went home a week ago because father was slightly ill she had to go back home because father was in i could live and be happy in the west i always wanted to stay back in the west because now she has more reasons to stay here because now he know she knows that mr easton is also here she has a kind of feeling maybe a feeling a bit of love for this person okay i could live and be happy in the west i think the air here agrees with me money isn't everything but people always misunderstand things and remain stupid so she understands that no money is not everything life has to have adventure has to have something like this like being a marshal living a life with a marshal she wants to stay back say mr marshall growled the glum faced man this isn't quite fair i am needing a drink so now the clump faced man again says that growl means he complained that please i need a drink that is i want to smoke would you allow me a smoke would you let me there is a separate place to smoke in the train okay it is called a smoker so you have to go there to smoke you cannot just smoke anywhere so he requests the marshall that is mr easton if he would take him to the smoker so that he could smoke take me in the smoker now won't you i'm half dead for a pipe so i just wish to smoke i'm dying please allow me to smoke now the bound travelers that means the two the mr eastern and the glam faced man rose to their feet eastern with the same slow smile on his face so they get up they they are going to the smoker i can't deny a petition a request for tobacco i cannot just you know deny this request she he wants to have a smoke so i want to give it although he's a criminal he has his desires it is the one friend of the unfortunate this man is an unfortunate man you see he's a criminal he's going to the prison so he wants a smoke i have to allow him goodbye miss fairchild duty calls you know he held out his hand for a farewell so they bid goodbye to each other now it's too bad for you are not going east she said re-clothing so she is going to east and you know this man that is mr easton whom she has started loving a lot she this person mr easton is going to the west so their ways are going to part they are not going to meet each other soon so she wishes it is too bad that you are not going east if mr easton had been to the east then obviously miss fairchild would be very happy she said re-clothing herself with manner and style so she gathers herself again with all her manners and styles but you must go on to live in what i suppose i think you have to go to levinworth because you have the criminal with you okay then nothing can be done work calls yes said eastern i must go to leavenworth the two men siddhartha means they walk awkwardly why awkwardly because their hands are tight and there is a very small space in the aisle okay that is why they walked awkwardly down the aisle into the smoker the two passengers in a seat now this part is the climax you have you will have questions uh from the climax because oh henry's works always have a very strange very shocking climax okay the end part of the story what is it the two passengers in a seat nearby had heard most of the conversation now in a train you have other passengers also they were listening to this conversation said one of them that marshall is a good sort of chap so one person there were two people over there also so one person says this marshall is a very good man that marshall is a good sort of chat some of these western fellows are all right now these marshals from the west are very good-hearted you see one of the passengers comment this what did the other person say the other passenger pretty young to hold an office like that isn't he asked the other so the other person says that yes he is so young to be a martial he is working in a such a you know prestigious post and he is so young now what did the uh what did the other passenger the first passenger replied young exclaimed the first speaker why oh didn't you catch on didn't you understand say did you ever know an officer to handcuff a prisoner to his right hand so the other passenger corrected the mistake saying mr easton was not the marshal he was the convict he was the criminal because no marshal would handcuff his own right hand nope no marshal no police officer will handcuff his own right hand because right hand is the is the hand which you can use at in in times of need so you will not tie that hand up isn't it so you will keep your right hand free if you are a right-handed person that is why it from the way they were handcuffed to one another the right hand of the criminal was tied that means the right hand of which person mr easton was tied which shows very clearly that mr easton was actually the criminal and the clunk-faced man was the marshal okay he showed his goodness by not humiliating mr easton the criminal in front of his dear friend okay so now important notes first the title and the theme the deceptive appearance all these points are important but you will prepare only one answer that will help you in everything see i have made the answer for you just check and let this be clear because questions can come like identify the significance of the title what is the theme of the story the receptive appearance okay how we are often uh we often not understand the reality we are misguided by the appearance the climax of the story all this questions can come from here so understand this part the plot of the story is related to the theme of showing compassion okay and not judging somebody by their appearances most important point the compassion the compassion in the heart of the martial he did not although he was taking a criminal to jail mr easton was a criminal whom he was taking to jail but he had this kind of a feeling that kind of compassion or sympathy for this man for the criminal he thought that it was not needed that he would be embarrassed in front of his friend miss fairchild that is why he claimed that he himself was the criminal and mr easton was the marshal so that he was not embarrassed in front of miss fairtrade the story begins with two people mr easton and the glum-faced man who were handcuffed together it is the handcuffing that leads to the hands part if you are told to identify the significance of the title what comes in the second part the hand hand is important because we come to know about the truth in the story through the handcuffs only by the way they were handcuffed to one another okay which are significant for revealing the true identities of the two men in the end we come to know who is the criminal and who is the marshal how by seeing which hand was tied to which hand of the other person okay so handcuffs were more important this fair child was misled by the unnamed man about the identity of mr easton as he wanted to save mr easton from an embarrassing situation why if the question comes why did the marshall the glum-faced man say that he was a criminal because he wanted to save the criminal that is mr easton from an embarrassing situation if he revealed that mr easton was the criminal in front of miss fairchild okay then they would be a bit embarrassed that is why he avoided the situation by claiming that he himself was the premier it was another passenger in the court to discover that a martial would not handcuff his own right hand with that of the convict as was the case there so eastern who appeared as a handsome bold man was actually the convict and the rough sad looking man was the marshal so this part is the climax of the story question can come that what is the irony of the story and all that then you will write this part that in reality the two passengers who were sitting there and listening to the conversation they were the one from whom we come to know the truth that in reality who is the criminal and who is the marshal okay it is the hearts part now next what is left hands is done now hearts the hearts part we have to clear it out the meaning of it explains the theme what think that the marshall was compassionate he had a lot of sympathy he was not forced to lie isn't it he did it all by himself it was his choice to claim that he was the criminal just to make the other person good in front of his dear friend so he lied to the woman to save mr easton from humiliation just to save him from humiliation he claimed that he himself was the criminal of being identified in front of an old friend or perhaps a lover the glam-faced man proved to have a golden heart this shows that the you know you felt that this man looks so glam so gloomy so sad depressed serious but in reality see her heart was made of gold he had so much compassion sympathy empathy for even a criminal okay now last part the word heart is also indicative of a kind of friendship that existed between miss fairchild and mr easton when miss fairchild saw easton what happened she smiled and you know her face she was blushing what does this blushing show that perhaps miss fair childhood some kind of a affair or kind of a you know deep desire to love this person or already loved this person in the past okay this show this is clear when we see that her cheeks turned pink she blushed as soon as she saw mr easter so i hope this part is clear is a very beautiful story isn't it of love of compassion of uh of sympathy of empathy of real humanity okay when when even a marshal can think of a criminal they can they can have sympathy they can show sympathy for one another okay it is a very beautiful story i hope you have liked it and i hope that all the lines are clear to you you have understood what kind of questions may come from here and if you have liked it please comment and subscribe and also share it with your friends let them see thank you so much bye

How I Would Become a Data Analyst if I had to Start Over in 2024 | 6 Month Plan
what's going on everybody welcome back to another video today we're going to talk about how I would become a data analyst again if I had to start over from [Music] scratch been thinking about this a lot recently because things have changed since I became a data analyst six or seven years ago right uh the job Market's different the TCH Stacks are different and a lot of people ask me every single day hey how do I become a data analyst and so I want to give a good perspective of from today if I had to completely start over exactly how I would do that again now in this scenario it's almost like I had Amnesia I completely forgot everything I know the only thing that was left in my memory is that I really want to be a data analyst that's all I have left so my sole purpose right now is just to land a job in data analytics and I'm starting from scratch nobody knows who I am nobody knows who Alex freeberg is or Alex the analyst I'm just some person right who wants to be a data analyst and I'm going to tell you how I would do that as quickly as possible so let's start from the very very very very beginning remember Amnesia Alex doesn't remember anything except that he wants to become a data analyst he doesn't even know what a data analyst does so the first thing that I would do the very first step is just research what a data analyst does and this part just takes like a couple days right you're just figuring out what they do figuring out what kind of things you might be interested in and then I would determine what kind of data analyst do I want to be do I want to focus on healthcare because Healthcare uses different tools than something like financial analyst or a marketing analyst or just a broad enal data analyst which would learn kind of the tools that I usually talk about on the channel so I would try to figure that out and then I would try to research what skills to learn exactly for that position but for this example for this scenario I'm just trying to become a general data analyst where I can get hired at any company so that's the first thing that I would do the second thing that I would do is then start learning the skills because you cannot become a data analyst with none of the data analyst skills it's just not possible now I've talked on my channel a lot about what skills you need to learn SQL Excel Tableau powerbi python then there's a ton of others you could do R AWS Azure looker and a ton of others but Amnesia Alex wants to get a job as quickly as possible so I'm not going to recommend he learns all of those skills I'm going to recommend that he only learns three that's going to be SQL Excel and Tableau now why do I recommend those three skills in particular that's because those ones are the ones that have the highest probability of being in a job description so SQL for sure is going to be in like 75% of job descriptions for data analyst Excel should be in probably like 100 % and then Tableau is just a bi tool so if you know Tableau you know powerbi or you know looker for the most part like you know like 80% of the other ones and so if you learn a tool you usually know the other ones and so just learning a tool you can switch Tableau for powerbi or a lot of other tools but I recommend Tableau just because it is a popular tool that a lot of companies use and those three skills are going to open up probably 40% of the jobs for a data analyst out there now of course the more skills that you know the more jobs that you can apply for right if you keep adding skills to your skill sets then of course you're going to be able to apply for 50 60 75% of the jobs that are out there but if I was starting over I would just want to give myself the best chance to land a job really quickly and so I would just focus on those three skills at the beginning now where would I learn these skills I'm pretending Amnesia Alex doesn't remember he's married doesn't remember that he has any money in his bank he is completely broke so if he has absolutely no money I would recommend that he goes on YouTube and learns all the free things that you can find on YouTube is basically a university a YouTube University out there where you can find anything and I myself have an entire Channel dedicated to date analytics and you can probably learn 90% of what you need to learn just on my channel but there's tons of other great channels out there if you want to dive into different things now if you're not Amnesia Alex and you do have some money and you remember who you are and you do want to dive into some of these skills a little bit more in depth than what YouTube has to offer there are some platforms that I do recommend I've been using udem for a long time I've also been using or Sarah for a long time I've even created my own learning platform for data analytics called analyst Builder on analyst Builder I have all of my own full courses that go a lot more in depth than what I have on YouTube we also have a questions page where you can practice for technical interviews and we'll get into technical interviews in just a little bit when we talk about getting interviews so I'll leave links in the description if you want to check it out but learning the skills is super important so that is the next step that I would do and honestly I think that I can learn SQL Excel and Tableau within two months so that's kind of of assuming that I don't have a job Amnesia Alex doesn't have any work to do he's only dedicating just to those skills I think two months is plenty of time to really know those skills well enough to land an entry-level job now if I as Amnesia Alex would start applying for jobs right now all my resume would have is Excel Tableau and SQL that's one of the worst resumés I've ever seen so what amnesia Alex is going to do or I am going to do is I'm going to build projects and build a portfolio when you're learning the skills you should be building project projects with them so you really solidify those skills so the projects are just kind of complimentary to learning the skills and then you can put those projects on your resume at least that's what I would do so now instead of just those three skills at the top we have three skills and we have multiple projects underneath it I probably do two in SQL one in Excel and maybe one or two in Tableau all these would go into a website and I have a link in the actual resume but then I'd have my actual projects on my resume that will really fill out my resume and make it a lot better that can take a week or two weeks depending on how quickly you can get those projects done or how well you know those skills but in two weeks you can have five projects or an entire portfolio created so up till now it's 2 and a half months of work invest in really learning and building projects the next thing that I would do is start creating a resume and this is going to be a really simple resume doesn't have to be anything crazy I've done lots of videos on creating the best resumé for data analytics and really I would just highlight the things that are really relevant and not include things that aren't Amnesia Alex has no work experience he has no education experience so for him he's really just going to be putting the skills and the projects and maybe a summary section as well but it's not going to be super super impressive but it is going to have a lot of what they are looking for in a lot of job descriptions so I'm going make a really really really good resume because that is going to get past a lot of these automated systems that kind of check the resume first and when a hiring manager sees it they're going to see the skills that they're looking for they're going to see projects that are interesting and relevant to that position and so hopefully I'd be able to land an interview the next thing that I would do is work with a recruiter and this is one of those things where most people when they're first starting out don't do this they just start applying to jobs and doing the LinkedIn you know single click applies they don't work and you get really frustrated and that's because you're applying to hundreds of jobs that thousands of other people are applying for but recruiters are really great because they have a connection with the company so I would work with a recruiter or as many recruiters as I possibly could believe it or not there was a time where I had no experience and this was just you know six or seven years ago and I was working with six or seven recruiters at a time just juggling them kept messaging them and asking them and emailing them hey do you guys have anything messaging them on LinkedIn reaching out to them cold calling you just you kind of have to put yourself out there so if I was starting over I would do that tactic instead of applying for a thousand jobs and then working with a recruiter I would start out working with a recruiter I also have an entire video on how to reach out to Recruiters on LinkedIn both by directly messaging them and then also by finding and cold calling and cold emailing them so if you're interested in finding out how to do that I would check out that video now after I work with the recruiter the very last thing that I have to do in order to land a job is to really nail the interview and get a job offer that's it an interview is usually comprised of two parts it's the general interview and that's the technical interview now the general interview is one that you'll get on almost any position so they're going to ask you tell us about yourself tell us about your work experience tell us uh why you want this position and what you know about the company these types of things so you can just get ready for those by researching theany company researching what they do and getting ready for that interview the next part is a technical interview and you're going to get this in probably 75% plus of the interviews that you have if it is a more technical role typically it's either in SQL or python just in general it's usually sequel like 95% of the technical interviews that I had over my entire career have been in SQL so you really want to nail that technical interview to show that you know the skill well and that's why we created analyst Builder like I was talking about a little bit ago we have that whole section where it's just practicing for technical interviews in either python MySQL postrace SQL Microsoft SQL Server it is super awesome just for that so i' really want to prepare for my interview I just practice you know telling about myself practice for the technical interviews I would nail the interview and I would accept the job position now that's usually the longest process working with a recruiter and Landing a job because all the learning up till then is all self-paced you can do that all yourself for free or for very little money and then working with a recruiter and then then actually Landing a job that can take anywhere from 3 months all the way up to a year and so in the shortest amount of time possible if I really streamlined this and I really worked hard at learning those skills working with a recruiter non-stop I like made it my job I think it'd be very possible to do that within 6 months it's a really optimistic time frame because 6 months to completely change your career is pretty quick but I definitely think it's possible if you know I was starting over today I definitely think I could do it of course there are outside factors like the job market if hiring is is like really slow or where I live or things like that but in general I definitely think I could do it within 6 months now to some of you that may seem like a really long time but to put it in perspective you're going to have this job for the next 20 30 40 50 years and you're going to learn new skills and you'll get promotions and maybe you can transition into data science or data engineering or any other number of jobs that are related to data analytics so that is the exact path that Amnesia Alex would take in order to become a data analyst as quickly as possible now if I had a little bit more time I didn't need a job I had more time to spend I would definitely be learning something like a cloud platform and then I would be learning some AI as well to work with those tools now I didn't mention AI as a must know because even now even today in the end of 2023 or early 2024 depending on when I post this um even today those tools are not crazy integrated you don't have to know them now in the future in 2 3 4 5 years they may become more integrated into all of our software into all the tools that we use then it would become more of a requirement to know those things so that is exactly what I would do if you haven't already be sure to check out analyst Builder I am incredibly proud of it it is one of the best platforms out there for learning data analytics if you like this video be sure to like And subscribe below I will see you in the next [Music] video

Accurate vs. Precise
often and you're struggling a bit with the definitions of what is precise and on what is accurate so in this video I'm going to try to illustrate you at an example what's the difference between being precise and being accurate so the example I'm using is I'm going to measure the height of this person here we have a little bit curly hair here so we do have uncertainties in this measurement now there are four different answers that came up by somebody that measured one was well it is 180 centimeters plus minus 20 centimeters now this measurement here is accurate as with the plus/minus 20 centimeters I'm very sure that the real value is actually in there but it's not very precise like plus/minus 20 that means it could be anything from 160 to 200 centimeters the first goal of any measurement is always to be accurate now the second measurement here reported 180 centimeters plus minus 2 centimeters if I look here I'm confident that the real height of that little person here is within my uncertainty given so in this case a measurement is accurate and precise accurate because my real value is probably in there and precise because I have a very low uncertainty so high precision means low uncertainty while low precision means high uncertainty a currency by itself means is the real value in there so of course the goal of any measurement is to be accurate and precise but often this is difficult to achieve so we're going to settle first for being accurate and then we think of ok how can we improve our met our measurement methods so we can improve on the precision now there are two other possible outcomes one is this one here when I'm not accurate but very precise so again I'm giving an uncertainty very low uncertainty but the value on which I apply this uncertainty way off realvalue so 170 plus minus one centimeter so no way that the height of this person is 170 plus minus one centimeter so in this case I had high precision but was not accurate so measurement with high precision and no accuracy is kind of useless as we the real value is not in there this happens often if you have a very price precise instrument but there's something wrong with your measurement method or the instrument is offset often you can kind of adjust this one if you know why your your being off and there's the last possible outcome where you're not accurate and not precise for example here the person reported a height of 150 centimeters plus minus 20 centimeters so i'm way off the real height on top I have a very low precision so here this case is kind of the worst case scenario because there's not much I can do here I can probably fix it if I realized that there was a problem the trick here is to realize that you have a problem because if you use a very precise instrument you might be inclined to believe that the instrument also gives you accurate results that's not necessarily the case there could be enough said there could be other issues the combination with the object you're measuring that could be an issue make the method measurement method they could be an issue with the person measuring but if you know and analyze what's happening you could fix this first goal is being accurate and ideally we get here where you're accurate and precise

David Copperfield (Musical Hell Review #94)
this episode is brought to you by Black Butler parody of the phantomhives a Black Butler abridged series slash parody Thank You greetings mortals welcome to another session of the infernal Court in musical hell I'm Deva you're a judge jury executioner and what was that taken at face value you wouldn't expect our next offender David Copperfield to be so baffling I mean sure it's a retelling of Charles Dickens semi-autobiographical novel with anthropomorphic animals but there have been literary retellings using animals before there have been kid-friendly adaptations of classic literature there's even been a kid-friendly adaptation of Charles Dickens using animals and yet none of that can prepare you for what you are about to witness so let's just dive right in and examine the case of David Copperfield shall we it's a picturesque Christmas day in the quaint British town of blunderstone where we find the imperious Betsey Trotwood bustling off on a visit to her niece Clara Copperfield the recently widowed Clara is in the process of giving birth and aunt Betsy is convinced the result will be a beautiful nice to be Betsy's godchild and namesake this doesn't quite go as she plans she did say hello to Ron Betsy David see Betsy is generally resentful of the male sex and she doesn't even have a tattered wedding dress or a moldy cake to show for it but she does get to express her disdain for the opposite gender in the movies first song [Music] whose idea was it to score a mid 19th century story with a bad show choir backing track talented lady though she is Andrea Martin can't make much of this and just ends up shouting most of the song the Christmas carolers jumping in on backup are worth a laugh though after aunt Betsy Karen's her way out of there Clara and her maid Peggotty who is a bear I think or possibly a mole promise to keep baby David happy and free from care which you know won't pan out well even in both her eyes Dickens indeed sinister forces are already afoot as local cheese tycoon mr. murdstone has paused in his usual routine of kidnapping homeless kids to labor in his factories to explain to his flunky grimby his plans to marry the widow Copperfield and get his hands on her money he takes his own sweet time getting about to that though as it doesn't become an issue until baby Davey grows to a handsome young cat lad of fifteen or so no you get the workers and I get the money Davey has his misgivings about mr. Murdstone but Clara reminds him they need a strong man around because it's the 19th century and things frankly suck for women but Davy asurs Clara he can protect her himself in song for said song I'll be your hero is sin number two and it is one of the weirder fantasy sequences in this movie yes there are multiple contenders for that category Davey's sole character trait is that he's really into reading and this is one of the few places it actually comes into play as he imagines Clara as a princess kidnapped by a dragon with murdstone's face and he duplicates himself so he can transform into Robin Hood Lancelot and Ivanhoe to rescue her all to the tune of the cheesiest early 90s pop arrangements you can imagine [Music] head tilting insanity of the imagined spot and electric guitar aside did I mentioned Amy's supposedly playing the song and a harpsichord did nobody point out that he's singing the song of romantic damsel in distress rescue to his mother Clara is touched by Davies rather edible declaration of chivalry but she can't promise him that she won't marry mr. Murdstone and indeed she's walking out of the chapel with him in the very next shot Murdstone immediately takes Clara off to update her will and since she's already got the tell-tale tragic Victorian illness cough I can see why he doesn't want to dawdle on that Davy is disheartened but he consoles himself by screwing around with Peggotty while she's trying to get work done [Music] Murdstone doesn't approve of things like imagination and happiness so he declares it's time for Davy to start learning a trade and arranges for him to be sent to the cheese factory Clara smiled objections along with Davey's insistence his mother should see a doctor for her tragic cough are overruled with an I'm in charge here and I know what's best for everyone which to be fair is perfectly on brand for evil 19th century patriarchs so Davy and his pet friend I don't know there's a bird hanging around that won't be relevant until about the last twenty minutes are bundled off to London while Murdstone and grinby dial the obvious evil up to eleven at the gates of the factory murdstone's attempts to wail on Davy are interrupted by Agnes daughter of the Duke who is Murdstone and grinby slant Lord and who is your standard-issue genial but pompous British gent Davy is dumbstruck by Agnes emphasis on the dumb and she's thrilled to have someone to nerd out over books with so she convinces her dad to invite Murdstone and son over for tea but no sooner is she out of sight than Murdstone throws Davy to the indignities of the workhouse and the even greater indignity of his villain song I'm not sure where the line between delightfully over-the-top and just plain embarrassing is but this song is over it by a considerable margin murdstone's part i hesitate to call it a melody because he mostly talks sings it is ungainly and doesn't fit with the underscore which is mostly stuck on synth organ from the end of thriller mode Davy is sent to live with some of the other workhouse drones at the residence of mr. and mrs. Micawber it's not so bad sure the micawber's are constantly dodging their creditors but they're nice enough folk in the Dickens kind-hearted but down on their luck mould and they have enough sense to make a show of abusing their charges in murdstone's presence to keep him from subjecting the kids to even worse torture so while Davy learns the ropes with his new buddy mealy Murdstone and grinby engaged in some good old-fashioned villain motivation ranting there's no reason why we can't control the world cheese market there isn't no one can make cheese cheaper than Murdstone and grinby no one's thought of using free haver that's your motivation I mean sure kidnapping orphans for evil capitalism purposes is pretty awful but still cheese actually murdstone's plotting is a bit all over the place in this he wants Klara to die already so he can get her money and he's been keeping her from receiving Davey's letters to help that along but apparently her will hasn't been changed yet because she wants Davey to see it first because I guess a teenager is suitable legal counsel now but also grimby can apparently forge her signature so why is that even an issue whatever his main goal for this part of the movie will be to psychologically break his stepson through hard labor since escape from the factory is pretty much impossible as me is explaining maybe you can do all of those things Davi I can but you can't escape from the cheese monster the cheese monster oh there's more in addition to the cheese monster which is really disappointing for something called the cheese monster it's basically just a big vulture the sewers below the factory are infested with mold 'yes yes maldis one of murdstone's cheese experiments went wrong stone is he invented a kind of Jesus cheese oh he invented Velveeta anyway there was an explosion and a bunch of child labourers got turned into mold monsters and if they touch you you become a mold monster too sweet Lucifer you cut out uriah heep one of the most magnificently repulsive antagonists to emerge from Charles Dickens fertile imagination and this is what we get in return an oversized buzzard and cheese a zombies Davey decides if he can't escape he might as well make the most of his situation and uses his book smarts to rig up some simple machines to make the factory run more efficiently this infuriates murdstone who is nothing if not committed to the evil part of his evil capitalist brand and won't be having with his workers being anything other than completely miserable happiness leads to great expectations oh no shoutouts please to punish davia and mealy for making his business more profitable Murdstone puts them on double shifts and forces them to do a stint in the tower which really isn't as bad as it sounds there's not much danger of anything other than boredom and Davey can pass the time with some storytelling and his big pop ballad is there anyone anyone to guard me I I can't anymore mr. Palin if you would please it's doll doll Oh doll when you take into account all the acid sequence songs the over-the-top villains and [ __ ] cheese zombies this movie has no right being as unbearably tedious as it is yet somehow it feels longer than reading the actual book despite cutting out a significant chunk of its plot and characters actually that might be part of the problem David Copperfield really is the least interesting person in his own story and when you removed the colorful supporting cast it becomes a bit of a slog and while it does still touch on the novel's deeper themes the exploitation of children and labour in equality and marriage the villains are much more cartoonish in more ways than one so it doesn't resonate working double shifts leaves Davey with only an hour's break to visit the micawber's who are currently engaged in another round of creditor dodging this time of year at this time of day in this part of the country the creditors are run off again never mind how their scenes aren't even worth bothering with and though the Micawber's don't have any food on hand for our young heroes that doesn't bring down mr. macabre as he explains his philosophy in song form yeah use that joke already but this movie is killing my creativity not even macabre song a bit of batshit where the characters parade around a landscape made of food can elicit anything more than a bemused huh Micawber manages to sneak one of Peggy's letters today thee and he learns that his mom isn't doing well and his letters haven't reached her he gives Micawber a letter for Peggotty but murdstone's threatening to have the baby Micawber's put to work if they don't tow the line so that goes nowhere I guess and hey Agnes is back in the plot having snuck out of her ivory tower to see just how bad the workhouse conditions are and have a touching reunion with Devi no no I draw the line that our leads being connected through song magic that's going straight into glitter territory and nobody wants that murdstone discovers Agnes and sends her back to her father who is more concerned with his own image than labor rights which yeah I'll believe that be if he falls back on trying to think of an escape plan unaware that his mother has died oh yeah Claire is dead no and peggotty crying about it for 15 seconds is all the time this movie is willing to spend on that plot development despite me Lee's repeated insistence that Escape is impossible seriously this debate forms about 70% of their conversations besides Davey's not equipped to deal with the CDR side of London so meanly enlightens him in sin number 7 street smart the animals doing dickens thing is really the big tip-off but this song is where it becomes painfully obvious how much this movie wants to be Oliver and company it's basically why should I worry with the serial numbers rubbed off but it comes way too late in the film this should really be me Lee's establishing number plunking it down as a lead-in to the third act especially with the whole peggotty is coming to london to tell davy his mom is dead thing hanging in the air is extraordinarily bad timing also there's a big difference between cute stray animals chasing around New York City and a couple of abused workhouse kids trying to survive the Victorian London slums it turns out Clara made a new will a couple of days before her death and since Murdstone is itching to get his hands on it Peggotty gives it to the Micawber's to hide Dave he learns the sad news and decides the sensible thing to do is to storm right into murdstone's office and accuse him of murder so Davey and Neely get thrown into the tower again and Davey makes fake plans to escape again well if you're ever going to try and escape now's the time they've been fattening her up for weeks she won't be as fast wife Aetna vulture wife Aetna Turkey know why don't know how miele knows this budget doesn't really matter the point is the cheese monster overhears the whole thing and is not happy to hear murdstone's plans for her giblets while Murdstone and grinby find Clara's will in under two minutes Devi makes plans to escape the factory in a hollowed-out cheese wheel this doesn't last very long either as he leaps to the aid of Agnes when she comes to the factory to find him with melee and the cheese monster offering an assist Davian Agnes are able to get the here out of Dodge in a daring yet somehow dull escape at this point the movie goes into a jumbled mess of a climax where it struggles to keep track of all its plot threads despite not having a whole lot of them to deal with the main arc is concerned with Agnes and Davies attempts to get to aunt Betsey remember her who Davey believes can help him because reasons Murdstone and grinby are hot on their tails and Davies Robin friend whose name I've only just now learned actually is Robin has escaped being shackled in murdstone's office and is on his way to help somehow this all ends with Davey and Agnes being chased by boars and a reprise of their syrupy love ballad [Music] I should really be more entertained by the surreal crazy here but let's move on at the same time melee and macabre have been thrown to the mold ease and Peggotty and mrs. micawber are bonding which leads me to think they should abandon this whole mess for a Boston marriage meanwhile Robin and Davey rescue Agnes from the Boers only for our heroes to wind up dangling over an inevitable waterfall which Murdstone and grinby are only too happy to plunge them into our villains ladies and gentlemen murdstone spreads word that Davy is dead but of course he and Agnes have managed to survive somehow and collapse on aunt Betsey store step where they are discovered by her cranky parrot companion mr. Polly which would actually be a good name for a Dickens character mr. Polly gets the whole story from Robin and is able to translate it into human anthropomorphic cat whatever for aunt Betsey mr. Polly is making a bit to be the most annoying character in this movie and he's only in it for the last 10 minutes aunt Betsey explains she's never hated Davey despite all the evidence and agrees to help back in London Murdstone has convinced AG mrs. dad to sign over ownership of the factory don't ask how he just does this movie doesn't just have a short attention span it doesn't know what it should be focusing on to make the movie interesting or coherent nevertheless the Duke is about to sign on the dotted line win [Applause] in prison yes aunt Betsy has brought those heroes of the disenfranchised those Crusaders against corruption the local police ahem Murdstone defends himself with a cheese gun whatever but davy indiana jones' him and grimm be out the window and into the long arm of the law the villains are arrested the factory workers sing about freedom melee and macabre are half moldy but that's ok because a little sunlight undoes the whole thing the factory has turned into an orphanage and everyone has a Merry Christmas [Music] I don't know how David Copperfield manages to be so off the wall crazy and yet so unbelievably boring most of the songs have the potential to be entertaining in their weirdness but they come in between long stretches of empty business uninteresting characters and glacial plot progression it's all just unsettling and confusing so the court of musical hell orders those involved to be stuck in a furry convention unless you know they're into that sort of thing in which case I don't know turn them into mole Dee's or something this movie couldn't be bothered to come up with anything that made sense so why should I so let it be recorded this session of the infernal Court in musical hell is now adjourned [Music]

UNSECURED LOAD!! 😳 | My Trucking Life | Vlog #2716
[Music] thank you good day everybody from Deer River Minnesota we had a busy day yesterday today looks like it's going to be a little slower Pace but we don't know yet for sure I gotta go deliver this Lumber that I have under the tarp in the back I'll show it to you right now we gotta go deliver it in the Brainerd Minnesota and then once we're done with this and have that off the trailer by then hopefully the load Gods will have a plan for me I don't know if I'm headed back home from here or if there's a Reload waiting for me we'll find that out later let's get going now though this is the newest edition in Old Blue it just hides all those wires and I'm not wires wires come on Josh I'm still waking up here all the airlines right that we're on this thing zip this thing all the way down to show you all these uh Airlines they look kind of messy just like taped on here right goes all the way down so to hide that you just put this on here zip it up and it gives it a more finished look see all right old blue another day another nickel how about it let's do it let's get a shiny one today going to double check I saw that my trailer was attached trailers attached trailer brakes engaged trailer brakes release now we can hit the road I've got a question for you minnesotans up here in northern Minnesota anyways there's a trailer being pulled by a pickup truck in those pumps over there looks like an RV trailer but it's weird because it's got like it's just it looks a little different and I see a lot of those around here are those like ice fishing Shacks or something [Music] what are those things see they look weird where the tires are because they don't have like regular fenders they just have this big like open area above the tires there what is that [Music] I see like at least a hundred of them when I'm in northern Minnesota here every day like in abundance I'm not exaggerating way over the top lots of them while I'm looking out here at my window you see that little spot on my window there it's like a little on my mirror my window mirror my mirror window I'm gonna be waiting here a while now I should have gone it's a defect on the mirror that I bought it seems all of these parts that I'm buying don't seem to last and I'm not getting the cheap stuff at least I don't think I am kind of frustrating you pay the money for these nice parts and you want them to last and stuff and then they go on break same thing happened with those lights underneath my headlights too they keep breaking too it's hard to find quality products my turn [Music] some of you have noticed that I shift gears without actually moving this it's uh this is my splitter valve here that's just splitting the gear into two this is a 18 speed transmission so I can split every gear just a little bit of a smoother ride when I'm pulling a lot of weight a little easier on the engine [Music] there's no real right or wrong way to do it other than well I guess there's a wrong way of having not to shift but when it comes to splitting gears it's just up to you here I'll split it again see I'll push this forward then all I have to do is release the throttle and it'll automatically going to the next gear see if I want to shift up again I pull it back all I have to do is lift my foot off the throttle and then put it back on but if I want to go into the next actual gear I'll put it back I want you to look at this pickup truck that's passing me here right now and look at his load that he's got on his trailer behind him look carefully tell me what's tying that Tractor Down not one chain not one strap it literally just drove it on the trailer and now he's going 65 mile an hour down the highway and he's been in the left lane for the last about 10 miles hanging out he passed me once before and I sort of looked at him looked at his trailer and sort of gave him like the the raised eyebrow look like what are you doing kind of gave me the finger so I guess so goes along with his attitude I mean all I was doing was giving him a face like are you kidding me no he is very serious he is uh everyone on this road is in danger now if anything happens to that truck if a deer jumps out in front of him and he has to slam on the brakes that tractor is flying out into traffic or if he just hits a big pothole you bounce that thing right over there or if he makes a corner too quick anything that's that freaks me out I've been trying to avoid him he's slowing down I don't know why if he's like he's hogging that left lane so no one can get past him I tried to get by him before but then he just passed me again so he wants to be in front of me I don't want him anywhere near me with that tractor not secured watching him very carefully look at this he's turning now that is uh that's real risky especially in traffic is rush hour right now we're getting close to Fargo North Dakota a lot of cars on the road as you can see zero regard for everyone else on the highway but he is very important he is very important he doesn't need to tie down his trailer because he's special obviously in a very big rush which is much more important than everyone else's safety on the road that actually it makes me actually kind of mad I'm kind of mad right now especially his reaction to me when I like I didn't confront him on it I just sort of looked at him I sort of gave him you know the eyes like what are you doing right and his reaction to that lashing out in anger like I'm in the wrong I'm like excuse me excuse you what is wrong with people hey boys so we made it home now it's time to Dad got my dad's shirt on and everything I keep all my dad jokes in my database Chevy what do we got here in bed this is our Graco Dream Suite bassinet and changer in one we have a tiny home with very few surfaces so I thought this would come in handy having a change table built into the bassinet let's hope we actually use it we gotta try and figure out how to put this together Unfortunately they don't come assembled one star laughs we were reading some reviews on this and some of the reviews are just so dumb you can just tell the people that left the reviews just well one one they shouldn't be caring for children what in order to turn it into the change table would you want it to be so easy that a toddler could come around and just flip your baby over while they're sleeping in their bassinet like where did these people come from these entitled people just with the most ridiculous grievances because you go to the reviews on Amazon for like legitimate reviews of people who actually use it and you know any problems that it may have or missing piece that they're in yeah I want actual reviews not I have to put down my baby [Music] so annoying even on anything else even with truck parts you go to truck parts you see these reviews down there that have nothing to do with the product it'll come the box was damaged that's that's nice to the part work hard damage yeah anyway that's a whole different topic we were joking around about leaving a one star because we had to assemble it ourselves like what am I supposed to do just lay my baby on the Mom and Dad anymore like who's gonna put this together all right daddy Josh your new title no one needs instructions he has the instructions right there right here right there so I think that some of us will do here the instructions are practically useless they're almost worse than Ikea instructions there's like four different languages in here but they have words yeah so okay make sure the webbing straps are in I think I clicked that incorrectly I think so what's the next thing then snap the next one in this one has middle button should be facing ouch this afternoon my brain hurts well it is pretty late it's almost midnight so I have to put this thing together so it doesn't fall apart the first time we put the baby in it well we should probably test it it's the goal Frank [Applause] it's our guinea pig no I would never do that we'll just wiggle it a few times and make sure thank you well with a minimal amount of f-bombs dadding so hard so hard wait till the crib honey this didn't even include any hardware this was just a bunch of clicky Parts the terrible instructions I didn't think they were that bad I think Ikea does it better I'm not saying something this was in there and then oh oh gotta make it stable don't want our baby to fall okay so you see the bottom is a bassinet and this is the change table up here I think now it's ready to be flipped over I think so and attach the effluence the slide button inside of handle up and squeeze this here just like this better work this all right moment of truth um the problem was having before already oh come on Graco ah there's a safety that's why you have to put your baby down because you can oh my God enough and push the safety so that your toddler doesn't do this when your baby's in there so rude I can't believe they made it so hard there it is where Little Baby G is gonna spend a lot of time for the first few months anyways 10 weeks all right I'm gonna put the effluence on Finishing Touches there we go baby has a place to sleep in 10 weeks or less look at that 10 weeks you hear that little baby your bed is set up now pretty soon instead of sleeping in here you'll be sleeping in here not nearly as cozy I better check to make sure that the sheets I bought fit said that they should

Venerable Candā: An Open Heart of Patience for Oxford Insight at Quaker Meeting House 05.06.23
hahaha yeah it's also nice to have a couple of people who are coming for the first time to sit with a group and hopefully to just take in some of that supportive energy that a group of practitioners can offer and I agree with this idea of sitting in a circle you know it's very friendly we're all sort of part of the same Circle no one's kind of on a higher platform no one's on the floor so it feels very friendly and uh hopefully like a safe and reasonably non-judgmental space so we can bring those feelings inside our hearts as well so I thought we could start with a meditation maybe for oh we're already quarter past seven so maybe 20 25 minutes and then have a dhamma reflection and today's theme is on an open heart of patience which I know I can certainly keep developing and I'm sure that stands for everybody here and then we can have some time for question and answers or discussion or just sharing together and learning from each other at the end so so if you would like to make yourselves as comfortable as you can and sometimes that just involves feeling our body and asking our bodies what they need at this time it might be the toilet to your right calf to take your shoes off to change your posture lean back or maybe straighten up there's no right or wrong way so whatever's comfortable for you is the best posture at this time and it can help coming in contact with the body by closing our eyes so that we allow the sensors to start quietening and turning inward foreign moving from the world of sights and sounds tastes smells into the feeling Realm feeling part of the Mind and really allowing yourself time to arrive to land in your body not to rush this part of the practice but to establish that connection with the feelings in the body and to do that in a friendly way as if you are meeting a friend who you wish to get to know to listen to to feel to sense so what would it take to really give your body the feeling that it can be at ease your body is in the friendly presence of your mind sometimes it can help to breathe in a little more deeply and let the body relax with a slightly longer out breath allowing the body to sink into the chair your feet to just feel that connection with the ground foreign ly widen the sphere of your awareness so that your mind consents into the whole body and even the space around your body the friendly welcoming environment of so many spiritual friends just receiving any Sensations that arise allowing tensions or knots their own time to unwind simply by giving them space allowing them to be and listening foreign listening deeply with curiosity to what's going on right now in your body and mind just being a companion to your experience perhaps tending to your experience the way a loving patient mother would tend to her child sometimes the child needs to feel held for the mother to be close are the times she can give the child a little more space the mother doesn't make demands on the child but it's just there quietly allowing the child to feel safe and at ease so in the same way we can allow our body and mind to be without judgment or pressure without control just tending to this moment with a patient and spacious open heart please thank you foreign thank you sometimes as the Mind settles and feels relaxed you may find you naturally become aware of the breathing if the breath comes to your mind see if you can hold it very lightly gently allowing the breath to fill the mind whether it's the breath or a particular sensation or emotion in your mind that nears your attention the most important thing is just to be gentle and kind no demands just letting things be patiently allowing the nature of this moment to unfold and as we come close to the end of this meditation maybe take a few moments to just wish yourself well foreign simple wishes for your well-being and ease your happiness safety and health the way a mother would wish these things for her child may I be happy may I be safe foreign just enjoying receiving these wishes his wishes of genuine loving kindness of sharing these wishes with everyone in the room may we all be happy healthy and safe may we be so patient and forgiving of ourselves and each other may we all be at peace really imagining these wishes as real possibilities for everyone here and noticing if there is that little bit more peace than ease in your heart how does that feel oh so you're very welcome to stay with these feelings inside with your eyes closed or see if you can stay connected to that sense of well-wishing for yourself even as you open your eyes okay sometimes I find it amazing that just by stopping for a while there is that sense of increase peace and ease and even if that's not the case for you right now you've given yourself the opportunity so that's an act of loving kindness in itself thank you for the space I enjoyed that it's the end of the week for me so today I hope to be patient with feeling tired so I wanted to talk today about the Open Heart of patience because you need a title but it's really a lovely theme because the Buddha said that uh patience is one of the most important if not the most important of the spiritual qualities on the path so I wanted to talk about the significance of that of that statement and in the sutters in the early Buddhist teachings he says Kanti paramam which means something like patience is the highest austerity tapoor which in Ancient India meant some kind of burning away of defilements some kind of really severe practices that we do to kind of uh it's almost like penances that is kind of the fast track to Awakening so for example even today in India people will do these kind of austerities these Tapas practices of Tapas like standing on one leg or standing with the legs Twisted together and one arm in the air and uh I saw a picture of one of these Aesthetics once and their muscle had grown enormous around here because they stand for months and months and the hand was in the air and the fingernails were long and twisted and you thought goodness me this is this is Extreme but in in Ancient India and even today you know we can laugh at this right but even today how much of the time are we actually practicing austerities and that might be a strange thing to sort of say in the Western World which is so comfortable and we have our homes made just as we lie comfortable and cozy with flowers and plants but actually we're often pushing ourselves that little too hard you know we feel like we shouldn't sleep too much or you know we're hungry but we'd better just resist the last morsel even though our stomach hurts or we just push ourselves that bit too far at work you know you could leave the the office hour is over but you think well there's a bit more to do and there's always a bit more to do it's there's never an end to that and I know that for myself with a project like the one I do because there's never really a final now it's finished point so we do engage in this idea of austerity quite a lot and of course the Buddha said that's one of the extremes and so when he said that patience is actually the highest austerity if you like the highest spiritual quality he was really redefining that term tapas to be something much more gentle much more spacious and forgiving much less intense and yet steady and consistent and something that can hold the whole process of this path so I think patience is something that enables the qualities that the Buddha encourages us to develop to develop in their own time and to come to fulfillment because sometimes we're so anxious to see the results right now you know and it does take time and each quality we develop conditions the next so patience is never a standalone quality it's something that feeds into everything else and one aspect of patience that I was trying to sort of bring up in the meditation was loving kindness you know because patience is loving it is nurturing and it gives the qualities in our hearts a chance to grow uh it's it's I was thinking earlier like how patients kind of interacts with those qualities Like Loving kindness compassion and all these things that the Buddha said are the right intentions on the path met the Compassion or non-cruelty and also letting things be letting things uh be just the way they are and patience is an aspect of that is that the aspect of gentleness not trying to force or rush things through and one example came to me of when we're practicing loving kindness meditation so with love and kindness we often use a phrase such as may I be happy and I kind of think of that as like planting a seed you know it's just a thought it's just an intention but we take that very beautiful intention that very wholesome seed and we kind of plant it in the soil of our heart so we say the word may I be happy but then we kind of have this attitude of love and kindness that Waits and that loving kindness is kind of like the sunshine on a seed and maybe in loving kindness as well we bring up the idea of a person a being who we want to share loving kindness with so we have this person in front of us and we bring up their face for example or a sense of their presence and that's like the rain you know that nourishes and and helps the seed to fertilize but the patience you could see the patience almost as the space that holds the whole thing it's almost like the Open Sky that just Waits and allows this whole process to take its own course to take its own time so we plant the seed we say for example may I be happy may I be well and then mindfulness is there and it's a mindfulness that's filled with kindness that's aware of the reverberation of that phrase in the mind or in the heart and then that patience is just listening in just giving it space as wide as the sky you know not making a demand that may the emotion of loving kindness arise but just giving things time letting things be and I like that idea of expansiveness you know this idea of patience as um giving things their own time because actually it's an illusion to think that we can do anything else you know there's this sense of self that keeps coming in time and again when we meditate or in our lives it feels that we can kind of hurry things up we can manipulate life to be just the way we want it to be and this really reinforces that sense of self which is actually rather an illusion and I think one of the ways that patients can help us overcome and see through that is by understanding that all we really can do is try to bring about the causes and conditions um somebody said in the car to me it was Nick actually today that um the most important thing in our life in a sense is nurturing what we have so we try to create fertile ground for wholesome qualities to arise there's this phrase you know the survival of the fittest but he was saying uh in Psychology that's been changed to be the survival of the nurtured and I thought that was so beautiful you know it kind of takes us away from having to run the marathon of life and more kind of look at the ground we're actually walking on is it is it going to be conducive to achieving our aim and of course in the spiritual life the aim is much less of gaining and acquiring and hoarding and you know having um material success and more this sense of letting things be simplifying giving up sensual desire to Incline the mind to a more beautiful sense of inner peace so I wanted to talk a little bit about the uh obstacles to patients maybe what the antithesis to patients could be and the obvious thing there is this kind of sense of irritation right when we don't get our desires met and I think often that is where patience is most helpful you know in our society in the way we're conditioned we're kind of taught that the more the better you know and it's not only about satisfying our desires but satisfying them now you know this idea of instant gratification and there's this lovely phase I think from uh in from the Middle East and they make curses on people they've got these two curses right one of them is uh really cool it's May the uh the fleas of a thousand camels infest your armpits which is really nasty isn't it and mean but very graphic so you say this to someone you don't like but the other one which is considered even worse than that is May you get whatever you want as soon as you want it and this you know not only is it obvious kind of why almost viscerally but also in the Buddhist sense I think although we have the goals of purifying the heart the path is much more important it's how we walk the path rather than what we get out of it if you like so it's really how we uh we relate to our practice and how much loving kindness how much patience how much um compassion we bring to our lives we bring to our practice this is really where success lies and it's quite the opposite isn't it of attaining and acquiring and getting things now because if you get things now I mean where's the opportunity to give where's the opportunity to share to serve to allow things to to grow in their own time and to enjoy the beauty of that so obviously um one of the Opposites of of patients is impatience there's kind of very irritable brittle sense of uh things kind of wanting to sort things out and uh I also was thinking that one of the uh challenges to patients is mobile phones at least in my world you know not only don't they work often but sometimes they kind of Crash just as you're about to make a payment for a train ticket or something like that but this other thing about mobile phones is that we always expect people's answer right now you know you send them a message and you say I'm nearly there you know I'm coming it's like I'm three minutes late and then your friend doesn't reply and you're like huh they didn't reply like one minute I sent the text message and they still haven't replied and then you know you get a little bit later so you're like oh now it's going to be four minutes and you have to tell your friend every step of the way you know because we don't have patience to just wait and see what's going to happen the other end I don't know I remember those times I was traveling in Asia and I hadn't got a clue whether the train would come there was one time I was traveling even in Holland and um I was on the train without a phone without any kind of backup plan I didn't even have the place of the uh the center that I was going to at the other end I think it was a train to Germany but halfway through in Holland the crew got off and we had to wait for the next crew to get on and they were late one or two hours and then they got on and they were like great we've got good news the crew just arrived but the bad news is they now have to have their lunch so they got on a plane on the train but now they had to have their meal so that was another hour and we continued and of course I'd miss more than one Connection by then and I had no idea whether my friends would be at the other end to pick me up and as a nun you don't use money you know I didn't have a phone I couldn't make a phone call I didn't even have the address or computer to find it and I just had to trust I just had to trust that well there's nothing I can do in this situation the only thing to do is be patient and wait where I am now stop thinking about when I'm gonna get there and who's gonna be there and hope that something happens so when I got there I was very happy to see that of course they were all meditators and they've been waiting on the station for quite a long time but you know there was none of this if I would have had to text them and say oh it's a bit late I don't know they might have thought well we'll just give up you know she didn't answer for the last five minutes she's not coming anymore so we kind of get very short fused and and little capacity to wait and I think this is such a problem isn't it the other thing that's sometimes mistaken for patients and uh in the Buddhist tradition we have this idea of near and far enemies so the far enemy of patience would of course be kind of anger and imitation impatience frustration but the near enemy and I'm making this up because it's not in the cities is something like tolerance I feel that tolerance is a very shabby and poor substitute for patience because tolerance sounds to me a little bit like gritting your teeth I'll kind of stay with you as long as you change I'll tolerate you as long as you stay over there and someone actually said that I actually heard from some monks in this country or monk singular they said oh it's okay she has a bikini Monastery as long as it's further from us this doesn't represent all monks and there's many people who are very supportive of what we do but it's that idea of we can tolerate the other as long as they don't come too close you know and for me that's almost the opposite actually of patience because patience to me is being present really being present open and with our experience right now waiting with it rather than waiting for it to change waiting for it to go away waiting even for it to to develop because the waiting for it to develop is a kind of craving it's a subtle kind of pressure that we put on our experience and on our mind and our heart I heard actually recently that uh sometimes people throw their orchids away because after they bloom for the first time they think that's it they think they're all kids finished so instead of that you know they um they just put it in the bin and I've had a beautiful little kid now for about four years my dad had one for eight years so I'm taking inspiration from him but I wondered too you know when the the first kind of flower stem finished flowering and uh and all the flowers fell off and sometimes the flower stems also become a little bit dry and you think that's it you know but someone said to me well you know the green leaves are still really nice at least it's some Greenery so I thought yeah that's right and all I need to do is soak it in water for 15 minutes a week so I'll just soak it in water for 15 minutes and enjoy the greenery while it's there and lo and behold a few months later the next flower stems came out and beautiful flowers came again and I've been continuing that process now for like I say four years and it even had whole new stems at one point not just a new flower shoot but a whole new set of stems and again we have beautiful orchids in the monastery and I think this is the thing isn't it if we don't have that patience if we're looking for something to happen now and we also don't have the trust I think trust is a part of patience trust that things will happen in their own time so long as we keep giving them the opportunity by watering that plant you know by soaking The Roots then we really miss out on so many flowers that can happen you know so much flourishing that can develop in our mind but we really have to give these things time and enjoy the process right patience also has a cause you know it doesn't come out of nowhere in Buddhist in the Buddhist teaching everything is about causality you could say this is one of the major themes running through and causality is very close to the understanding of non-self because there is nothing inherent in a person or in our mind you know we don't have fixed qualities that are either there or not it's all an aspect of cultivation and making sure the conditions are in place or putting ourselves sometimes in Fertile ground for example coming here to the Quaker Meeting House and having this lovely holding space where I certainly started to feel some energy I don't know about others towards the end of that meditation I started to feel this sense of joy that everybody is well intentioned that everybody's just holding space for one another and it's giving this sense of meta a chance to arise in the heart so patience too has its causes and of course in order to have patience for the spiritual path we have to make a start and the Buddha says the first step in the path is basically the spiritual friendship which enables us to hear the teachings sometimes for many people this is coming to a group like this and hearing something of the dhamma one aspect of the dhamma that maybe resonates for you and makes you think yeah this is something worth pursuing sometimes it's reading the suttas or it's reading a dumber book by a contemporary teacher you read something that just seems to speak to where you are you know and this is the start we hear the teachings and something arises it's called confidence it's the flourishing of faith in the heart you know the sense that this is something that may be worth trying and sometimes that's just taking the first step to come to a group or to listen to a talk online or to even just take a few minutes for yourself to be with your body and mind you know to see if you can sense the breath coming in and out and see if you can find some peace with that or even just that moment where you give yourself a gift the gift of space whereby you can relax a little bit so it starts with this hearing the teachings and then having that confidence arise in the heart and I always think confidence comes with a sense of inspiration if it's really going to manifest and in uh in starting the path and for me one of The Inspirations is realizing that you know my actions do have consequences so there's that inspiration to really commit to a virtuous life to trying to cultivate goodness because I know it's beneficial for me and for everyone I'm around so that confidence gives me the feeling that it's worth training the mind and the Buddha said it can be done you know he said that he wouldn't teach the way he does if it wasn't possible to awaken and this holds for absolutely everybody you know nobody barred except if you've done something really terrible like kill your mother or father or Draw the blood from a Buddha which I doubt anybody here has done and even then you get another chance especially if you believe in rebirth but even if you don't you will in your next life as my teacher sometimes says and you will get another chance at some point so you know everybody has the opportunity it's just whether we take it and how much time we give these things to to really start to develop so we plant the seeds and we try to create the fertile soil for them to flourish and another aspect of patience of course is um is the wisdom to understand that you know we do need to stay with experience long enough for the dhamma to reveal itself so it's that wisdom that allows patients to well that goes hand in hand with patients and in a way that wisdom is the patience you know because when we are able to stay present the dhamma starts to reveal itself and we start to see that there's nobody here that everything is arising and passing away you know there's nothing permanent in the human body or mind there's nothing permanent in the realm of emotions they just arise and pass away and not only that they do arise and pass away but they are conditioned it's the how they arise and pass that's also a part of that wisdom so without patience we're going to miss the process and patience is also related to equanimity my early practice for about 14 years was the practice of a personal meditation that was very much connected to observing the sensations in the body manifesting and sometimes with pleasure sometimes with a lot of aches and pains and starting to go a little bit deeper than the apparent truth of you know this is a pain I don't like it and the reaction that is combined with that to the actual nature of what was arising and have a look at it in its component parts so you would see that through that pain was some heat or maybe some pulsing some throbbing maybe sharpness maybe tension tightness and getting really interested in that and starting to notice that these different feelings were kind of constantly shifting constantly changing in their intensity in their shape in their form sometimes they'd be very localized sometimes they'd go up the leg or you know down into the ankle and just that ability to stand back you know to hold the space with this spacious open mind of equanimity and patience was enough to allow things the time to change and to really start to it was almost like once the the patience was there and the Equanimity was there mindfulness really started to grow and things started to change more rapidly to the point that it was hard to pinpoint anything as pain or even anything as pleasure for that matter things were just shifting all the time and of course when you realize that things are shifting so quickly you also start to realize the mind is Shifting with them right the mind has to keep track to keep up to speed so even this mind is is you know changing all the time and cannot be anything permanent or fixed so I found this kind of practice very conducive to developing patients and the kind of patients that really is a companion to the process not the patients that wants to be anywhere else and it's amazing when you can have that patience the pain simply doesn't appear as pain anymore you know it's just a privilege to be there and to learn and I think this is another aspect of patience patience listens deeply to life you know patients can really give things space and we can do this in our daily lives with each other right I mean especially if you're going through something difficult and you have a friend who's willing to talk for five minutes but you know the process takes longer than that or sometimes I think this is one of the issues isn't it for people who may be have psychological support and you have your session with the psychologist and it's coming to the end of your session and time's up you know has have you been fully heard and what do you do at the end of that you know can you hold the space for yourself or do you feel like you've been cut off a process hasn't quite been seen through with my project in Oxford it's been a huge lesson in patience because it did take it has taken so far eight years to get to this point and um if I was only focused on outcome it would have been a really miserable time but I think one of the things that helped me was this understanding of um what the Buddha says an aspect of mindfulness I think satima and it's from the Sati patana City it basically means uh being diligent being patient again Tapas this austerity this patience giving things time and sampajanya means like a knowing the purpose of what you're doing and then satima is like the mindfulness so we in all our undertakings we practice this mindfulness but we have to know the purpose of what we're doing the context you know allowing things to happen in their own time but also the right context for things to happen and the first time I realized something was amiss with this was um in Burma where I was practicing for long Retreats and people would be practicing what they thought was mindfulness and what they thought was sampa janya you know kind of uh understanding the purpose of what they were doing but then he'd have a conversation with someone who was also spending a lot of time in meditation and you'd start to feel that they weren't really present with you they were kind of trying to watch their breath at the same time you know and you're trying to have a conversation it's like the time to talk not the time to meditate but they were like kind of resenting the fact that they had to break into speech because they had to protect their silence and the only way they understood what mindfulness was was close your eyes and be aware of the breath or be aware of the sensations and anything else is a distraction to that and I realized that that wasn't understanding the context properly wasn't really understanding the purpose of speech and speech conversation is an opportunity to be with another to try to understand another and you know to relate in a Wholesome Way right speech is part of the path you know and it's an opportunity to practice loving kindness and compassion and to to Really lend an ear for as long as the person needs you there and of course to the best of your own capacity respecting that sometimes you know it isn't the right time and maybe you do have to explain that in a very gentle and respectful way so with the project as well you know I time and again have to return to the purpose of what we're doing because sometimes it's so easy and I'm sure it's the same for everyone here in their daily lives in their livelihoods that are you know sometimes we lose track of why we're doing what we're doing and also of the value of how we serve you know and we just get inundated with the workload and start to feel grumpy start to feel stressed it happens to me as anyone who stayed with me will know you know I've had a bad night I haven't slept enough and they're like I have a rest for an hour and I get another 20 emails you know just as I think I've cleared my head uh and if we lose perspective if we don't have this sense of the purpose of what we're doing you know in this case to develop conditions for people to practice for people to develop good qualities and including myself then it will be very difficult to sustain and we will fall into irritation and impatience with the process simply because we've forgotten the longer term goal you know and uh A really lovely thing that happened as a wonderful example of patients the other day was that a friend of ours came to visit the bihara and they said that their whole life at the moment is involved with caring for their husband who has uh I guess sort of final stages of Parkinson's disease and also accompanied by dementia at this point um and they were able to reflect on their relationship with their husband over at least 40 years I think and reflect on all the times they had been impatient with this person because they didn't understand their language they didn't understand the way they expressed love and sometimes we're looking for certain ways that others relate to us we want them to say the right thing or show their love through um sensitive words but she said oh it took me a while to realize that his love language was actually to give to provide you know to to support me and to offer that security in my life and I wish in retrospect I'd be more patient because now I can understand that you know that there's something beautiful there but when we have our expectation our demands sometimes we're missing what is there and the other really powerful teaching she gave to us just the other day was uh she said a test of her practice she went to his bed that morning and he didn't wake up you know she's been living with this uncertainty for so long of how things are going to go and what's going to happen when he does die how is she going to respond will her practice kick in you know the practice of so many years and she said she saw him there and realized that he may or may not wake up and she felt okay with that she felt she could wait and give it time so she phoned the nurse and asked about it and they said yeah you know just wait to see and she said yeah okay I can do that I can just wait and she did that patiently waiting with loving kindness and after two or three hours he he awoke and he said something quite funny actually said who are you what are you doing here in her own home so she had a laugh it was it was she could see the light side but what she realized is that yeah she could have panicked there you know she could have found the hospital they could have come along with an ambulance and taken him off maybe he had died but she gave it time she waited with patience for him to awake and the process is continuing day by day a process of great uncertainty but a lot of spaciousness around it a lot of patience and giving things time so I don't know how patients manifest for you in your life but it would be really lovely to hear from other people about this and about ways we can be patient with even the more difficult things in life yeah so this is something of what I hope to offer today and um it would be lovely to hear anybody's thoughts and reflections on the theme or on anything else that you're working with now thank you

35% / month trading forex (myfxbook verified) - is it possible?
hello and welcome to another trader's terminal video this is jordan and today we're going to talk about two things first of all is it really possible to make money from trading long run right i'm not talking just about a week a month three months six months you get lucky market fits your uh trading style you make money right i'm talking about long term i'm talking about one plus year of my fix book proven results and i'm going to show you and prove to you that making money is possible long run i have the myfixbook stats i can prove it i also have the videos and the ideas and the explanations proving that i'm doing the analysis live and guys trust me it is possible and i really hope this video besides uh drawing my website out there is also going to influence you and motivate you to pursue your dreams that might not be with me that night might not be with any of my softwares or any of the free stuff that i'm putting out there but in general i want to show you that if you find the right path in the right way and the right method of trading for yourself you will be able to make money in the long run it's not going to be easy definitely the statistics are against you but it's possible and trust me if i was able to do it 99.9 percent of you are able to do it so what you're looking at here is inter the account huge risk well this huge risk for me based on the uh dollar amount which i have there of course this is a relatively smaller account than an account which i would be trading long run and a bit more conservatively this one is intraday more aggressive and the idea here is to grow the account as quickly as possible this is why you're looking at such numbers and i'm going to show you other numbers where the the statistics are completely different right it's all about the ratio this is why uh this thing is bored and you're not going to be looking at the door amounts i want you to focus on the ratios and the ratio which i'm talking about is profit versus drawdown for drawdown versus profit basically the idea for me is very simple i want to have a ratio of one to one meaning if i have one percent profit i want to stick and keep approximately one percent draw down the higher it goes the better meaning one percent draw down versus two percent profit it's perfect now we have one to two right so as long as this ratio is approximately much i'm happy with that so uh what we're looking at here is close to 35 percent of profit for this month which is about to end but uh i'm pretty sure i'm not going to open any new trades most likely but even if i do open it's not going to influence that much the results and this is drawdown this is drawdown for the month you can see we have approximately 22 here right and now you start to understand what i'm what i mean by this ratio so if this is too much for you of course you can go ahead and lower it you can make it five percent draw down six seven eight percent profit right it's all about playing with the numbers increase decrease it just make sure it is in a range which is comfortable for you and your account size another thing we should be mentioning here look what's happening with the drawdown and this is also correlated to the volume uh that i'm using in the beginning of the month we had some amazing conservative setups i'm going full force there i'm using my full risk and my full load sizes i make money i start to decrease immediately why because i want to preserve whatever i have done in the previous trades and i want to have a positive month week year whatever the period is that you're counting okay in my case i'm counting monthly so once i have a good period or good few days few weeks few trades i know i can now decrease because now i have enough capital to support whatever i'm going to do with that that could be withdrawing for bills that could be um leaving the capital to grow the account depending on the goal but this is how i usually do it okay now don't get me wrong if it starts the opposite and i start with negative uh like it goes to minus right this is drawdown maybe we should show this so let's say this is happening and this is the very first trait you're getting i'm not going to go full force after that or double or triple the account size uh sorry the risk size no okay it goes only in one direction if you have big profit then you start decreasing this is how i do it i'm not saying this is the only way it's just how i do it so how do i make all these trades what's my trading style how do i analyze the markets well instead of explaining you in theory how it's done uh what i did here is open this trades so basically if you go to traders terminal.com under the trading ideas tab you will see this thing here okay this list and up until today this was locked because you have premium and you have free trades here okay but what i did today is i unlocked everything which is not active so basically if you see not active this is the status of the trade if it's not active you're now able to click on that and see what's happening and as you can see i'm not logged in i can click on that and now it will take me uh to the actual video and to the result so i want you to go ahead and see the way i'm trading okay it's not well let's say not super simple but it's also not that complex i'm using very native tools if we can call them that i'm using levels i'm using fibbles and i'm able to achieve this kind of results okay and i've been doing that for years and it works guys and for me the most important part here is to be able to understand that this works long term it's not short-term thing right so please go ahead check out uh all these premium and free ideas you have the results you can watch the video you can watch the ideas you can see how i'm thinking you can understand my methodology and if you have any questions of course drop me a message find me in telegram skype whatever it is no problem video here below comment i'll get back to you but it is possible and now i said that i'm going to show you uh long-term proven results and i'm not joking guys just go to myfixbook.com members slash quizzical i'm gonna post this link below in the description and you will be able to find um this trick here their public you can go ahead and check them out ignore this this is from strategies this is test this is not a realistic expectation okay it's just for analysis but this this is realistic and here for example you can see one of the accounts and you can see that this thing's been working since march 2017 until august 18th right this is more than one year look at this curve it is definitely possible here it is you have nine percent versus 30 what's the ratio here does it make sense okay and again look at the numbers compared to the previous account this is much more conservative approach which with lower risk as i said it's all about the preference okay then you have another account now the crypto this is a bit wild if we can call it that and i wouldn't really expect such such numbers unless you're doing some very very small tiny account where you're doing experiments crypto is extremely volatile i wouldn't be using that for uh living or for my i don't know is just i wanted to see if my trading style works on crypto i put like set up a small account it proved it works okay but this is not something i'm doing on intraday basis this is not something i'm paying my bills with all i wanted to say is it works okay this is a shorter period of time november till january just a few months it works and as we can see volatile volatile volatile i wouldn't really put too much money there but uh the question was can we prove that this methodology that i'm using in my trading methods are working on the crypto markets yes they are now you have another account here which is slightly different from everything that i'm doing and this is called investment with investing what you're doing is basically you're trading daily and weekly charts sometimes even monthly charts and you're holding for longer periods of time what we can see in general in the forex market is that the market is trading in range i'm talking about the whole period of the forex market okay the absolutely whole period of the forex market is going in a range this is not a stock this is not an index is not going in a single direction over time so knowing how to apply certain methods you can be extracting money in this specific way now this is completely different than you will see that the drawdown here is completely different from the intraday strategies okay so some people like it because this is almost no maintenance you check out the charts probably once a week and that's it so some people prefer it and the only thing here to know is how to manage your risk and how much of your account are you willing to put on risk to to accept the drawdown in order to make money i'm pretty comfortable with what i'm doing and as you can see i had a few larger drawdown periods like this this this right but if you know what you're doing at the end of the day you're making money so this is totally different from the intraday and that's why you need to be able to put this money at risk right this is why the drawdown is larger because if you're playing the the conservative game with the stopwatch and one percent and two percent etc you will not be able to do that so this is completely different story but still long term you are able to make money and the graphic is growing so i really hope this is um again at least a bit motivational at least a bit giving you clarity of course there are people who are much better than me of course there are people who are doing doing it in a completely different way there are people who are slightly worse than me trading is one of the best jobs if we can even call it a job i mean i wake up every morning and i go to the chart and i analyze and i simply love it right so if if this is your thing and you're passionate about it do not give up it's absolutely possible to be done you just need to be consistent that's it all right guys if you have any questions um comments and i'll get back to you if you like this video please thumbs up and i'll see in the next one

[Music] have you ever thought to yourself i wish i could smell like shanny too well the petty family has a new product for you can opis get that fresh dornbusch scent anytime anywhere with petty family canopies now in travel sizes a lot of people think that marijuana isn't dangerous but they're wrong because not only does it harm a person's body and mind but it often leads users to try other even more dangerous drugs [Music] if you gamble with life you can lose it cause your life is a gift don't abuse it and you know [Applause] if you gamble with life you can lose it you gotta grow cause your life is a gift don't abuse it oh [Music] using crack and cocaine to get high that's what you say you know but it's really insane you could die what are you thinking of cause nobody's needing that crack and cocaine there's terrible trouble behind it and sooner or later you burn in [Music] just a snort or a smoke in your greed that's all you care about but your life is a joke and you need someone to help you out cause nobody's needing that crack and cocaine there's terrible trouble behind it and sooner or later you're burning your brain making a mess of your mind cause nobody's needing that crack and cocaine there's terrible trouble behind it and sooner or later you're burning your brain making a mess of your mind there is help available for people who have a problem with cocaine or crack addiction have them call 1-800 cocaine for advice and if someone ever offers you cracker cocaine be smart just say no cause nobody's needing that crack and cocaine there's terrible trouble behind it and sooner or later you're burning your brain making a mess of your mind cause nobody's need and that crack and cocaine there's terrible trouble behind it and sooner or later you're burning your brain making a mess of your mind cause nobody's needing that crack and cocaine there's terrible trouble behind it and sooner or later you're burning your brain making the mess of your mind [Music] i i'm happy i talked to my sons just now i just got off the phone with them and and and their foster mom and she's a wonderfully blessed woman in jesus she believes in jesus she believes god brought us all together and we're gonna be working as a family you know she's she's such a wonderful person like she's just a wonderful person just beautiful beautiful woman i'm just sitting back and i was thinking um i got a pretty serious question here is atheism really at the end of the day um all about just teasing people all day and ready killing people all day and attacking people all day is this what atheists do with their time uh is atheism really about preventing people from having the bare essentials making sure children are homeless making sure adults are homeless and making sure they try to ruin as many lives as possible this is what atheism really is all about at the end of the day because if christianity was anything like atheism i wouldn't i wouldn't want anything to do with it and i think that's something that we really need to start thinking about like what are you guys doing with your lives what are you guys doing with your time it just seems like all you people want to do is hurt people and you don't want to do anything to help anybody and and the boys are happy and they're having a good time so oh it brings so much relief to me that they're in good hands they're in such wonderful hands this woman is so she's so nice like and she's she's doing things that wow rammers to the identities of satellite controllers it is very important that every ethnicity and race know which people are the satellite controllers because nobody wants to be blamed for what some other satellite controller is doing or what other whatever race is doing what they're doing you understand that no i have not received any of the monies from the treasury if they tried to send any monies i've not received nothing from nowhere they receiving letters from any friends or celebrities or females that are friends of mine haven't received nothing at all yet at all past 22 plus years you know if anybody sent anything in the mail if anybody dropped off any money anywhere for me didn't receive none of it don't forget i'm tax free too so you know somebody sent me money and then they claimed they thought i owed them something no that's not how things work you're supposed to write it off on your taxes because the government's blocking me from my money and the government was stealing money from my cards my debit cards or you know my work pay cards they've been doing that for a long time and those people have to get charged and if anybody's wondering you know because some people know what the situation is when i went to stores and businesses and they were supposed to credit back my card nothing ever got credited back on there so if anybody's wondering you know if i went to a department store or went to a business and that's obviously why one of the reasons why i've had to work at places and it's endangerment against government because the government knew that my parents had accounts set up for me and trust funds set up for me and plus i'm the owner of the companies that i was supposed to receive revenues every time revenues came in you know in reference to you know the companies or dividends and things like that but you know my mother and father even had a standard form it was a standard living style that if my lifestyle had looked like i was living a poor lifestyle they're supposed to be lawsuits against the government know that right standard value of style you mean like i'm supposed to have a budget for all kinds of different things if i didn't have like access to a certain amount of money per day that means the government was holding me hostage or the government was stealing my money you guys know that right and those and there's even documents at the treasury and supreme court too yeah i don't know if the united nations has copies of that enough but i'm tax free because of a lot of reasons because government tried to murder me when i was a little boy and the government tried to steal my mother and father's estates and they tried to steal the stores and companies and businesses and grocery stores and they're doing hiccups and other things uh so you know in robertson situation my parents had monies and accounts set up for me that i was supposed to have access to on a daily basis or whatever i'd go to the bank to get access to monies but the government's been blocking me from that and they've been using impersonators trying to steal my identity and they damaged my teeth trying to call me the bad guy trying to call me the imposter or the fake when their government agents are the [ __ ] fakes the ones that have been doing this to me and those people need to go to court and their dna has to get tested so you know everybody knows who they are the people that are trying to steal my identity people trying to steal my mother and father's companies and land that i'm the owner of because my parents gave me everything and in reference to other races or ethnicities trying to slander my intellect or trying to slander my uh lifestyle or trying to slander who i am those people need to get put into court they their race or ethnicity does not have a right judging me i'm the rightful owner of my mother and father's estates doesn't matter who they are where they came from i'm the owner no matter what they don't have a right slandering my character she's actually like my kids actually went to a party you know she's provided them with things that i can't do right now which is nice because i'll just be honest i'm feeling really really really sick today i'm feeling sick i'm very lethargic like very lethargic it's very low energy for me today but i want to play i want to play stardu you know the like i know i've i'm like covet negative last time i got checked but i'll tell you the last time i got kovid it like killed my taste receptors and my smell so i can't like taste or smell things like like maybe 75 of my taste and smell is gone and like i i miss it i miss being able to taste [ __ ] things right did i sleep well oh yeah no i haven't gotten the results yet i will i will i think i'm just gonna make a call tomorrow like i'm trying to be patient i i know probably things are backed up too you know it's funny the first test that comes back though is my covid you're negative that was the only test i heard no i haven't gotten my nurse yet i'm still waiting on my meeting about it i'm still waiting on my meeting about it but i am wondering about the results i know on the 11th or 16th i forgot let me see is it written right here i wish jason was up here [ __ ] either the 11th or 16th i have a gynecology appointment so get my hoo-ha i'll scrape down that'll be wonderful i really don't want to do that i hate getting pap smears don't you hate getting pap smears and you know what it would be appropriate for me to have like uterine cancer cancer it would it would it would be appropriate for me to get that because amberlynn reed got it and chantal got it and since i'm part of the unholy trinity as some people like to say that's so blasphemous by the way you do i know how you doing folks crampy lobster here um sorry that it took so long oh [ __ ] i gotta tell you if operate for the ob

vitamin d um and that's pretty much you know and you can't detect cancer you know with a blood test uh shanny thinks the only way you can check for diabetes is you know blood through your finger not

point where like going oh my god or or it's not even to the point of them even saying hey you know you start watching your club it's not even near that point right and i'll be i've had that discussion so you know piss off you know uh just kidding but shanny you know who boy howdy she's just you know just nobody wants nobody jenny's never had a problem with other people being after cooter why is she [ __ ] uh oh yeah that just really maybe he'll be really cute and i'll be like wow the whole time you know ladies i don't know i've never been to a gynecologist i've never sat through a gynecologist exam um i've 63 years old all right i'll be sick okay i'm 62 years old and you know i've i've known a lot of women that have been to the kind of you know the ob gyn and i know some women will discuss what the [ __ ] happened because admittedly it's not the most pleasant thing in the world right um it's it with pap smears or mammograms uh they're not pleasant right exactly i get that right and sometimes you know i've i've known some women to be a little bit more graphic or whatever um i don't want if you want to call it um on describing their experience right because they just hate it that much right but not one time if i ever i have never oh god uh is that some sort of like fetish you know obg it probably is folks i don't you know um i don't mind i i was born in the doctor's office or born in this you know when you're getting a gynecological exam i don't know as far as i'm concerned i don't care who that i i don't give a [ __ ] with the person i wouldn't give a [ __ ] personally i don't know i'm a man i don't know but i i wouldn't give a [ __ ] if the guy was the best good looking guy in the world if he's doing that and everything it's like you know i was thinking of that you know i mean although mrs lobster did say that her uh dennis was really cute um but it wasn't like but that's not like he's not because yeah but he's also not gonna like look up your your you know uh i don't i i just find it funny you know i i find it just why i don't know a fetish thing is it i'm already higher than i thought it was but uh it's a good thing i've got coffee and um store brand diet cola um because you know uh we're we're um we're you know poor [Laughter] but i just need breakfast be right back okay robin um hey by the way folks it's 68 degrees it's sunny it's 9 29 sunday morning we've got the summerfest summer carnival out there uh behind okay it's on the other side of the building huh this is the front that's the back uh and there's like carnival rides and everything and and i was thinking about going over there yesterday but um anyway edges you know i'm not really into carnivals you know i like to go around and walk around sometimes but uh what's up raccoon man but uh anyway say zeus how you doing buddy um cap where was i going with this because i've really got i've got so much to cover in my head that i've been thinking about for the last last couple days and uh what's up there their lizard monitor you know whenever i think of whenever i hear the word monitor right folks i'm old okay um i always the first thing that comes to mind for me is like a hall monitor right in school and those of you who can remember those of you who are old enough or you can even google what a hall monitor was basically a hall monitor was um hey sharky just subscribed thank you so much um basically a hall monitor was a student right usually a rat or you know one of the kids that nobody liked or you know some [ __ ] he used to get to roam the hallway sometimes during class right or between class or and he was the eyes and ears and you know he was he was legally allowed to snitch on you right uh he could you know he'd check your hall pass you know in between classes you know and things like that so our hall monitor um hell when i was a little kid we had a milk monitor he was the milk money was the guy that got the coat out of the cafeteria get the milk for all the kids that ordered milk that day uh all monitors or snitches yeah no running in the halls oh yeah and and they even had those sashes in some places right where it would say hall monitor right um and they give them a little notebook thing to write you know and they were little snitches so i'm not saying that that um security monitor lizard is a snitch i i'm not saying that at all folks um but what i what i what i will do is just get off of that because um i don't know that word just that's why i call them sergeant perfect teeth plus he does you know he does have perfect teeth and he can't be old enough his mother's probably still paying off his [ __ ] teeth but uh skeemo was a hall monitor oh yeah yeah i'm glad you know but uh folks we're we're really getting off the post here we're getting off track with what's new you know uh i feel like that's exactly what you're saying uh i'm sorry it really is i i know i'm old you know and things like that but there are certain things that will just stick with you your whole life right was like you know to monitor you know the kid that you know go around ah could be see your hall pass you know give a bathroom pass yeah i remember when a teacher could like literally tell you no you can't use the bathroom other [ __ ] phones ringing again man hold on a second let's listen to shanny yeah they are so gross and intrusive especially when they use that cold metal speculum why don't they just outlaw those and just keep the [ __ ] plastic ones i know it hurts and to the men who don't know what a speculum is okay this is the best way how i explain it so a woman has a valve called a cervix right it's it's just a round circular thing with a little slit okay it's connected to the uterus so where the babies stay in when you're pregnant right so basically what a speculum did does is pretty much you know a carjack right the thing you jack up to like change your tire well that pretty much is what a speculum does it jacks open your cervix so they can scrape the inner lining of your uterus and it's uncomfortable as hell it hurts and i don't like it and you pretty much have to get that done every [ __ ] year and for me the last time i got it was two years ago so i'm kind of overdue uh oh i don't think i missed it all the way so well looking forward to that yeah i know now hold on a second oh [ __ ] folks god damn it [ __ ] phone keeps ringing ah i'll talk about that phone call in a minute yeah after this but folks that i don't know that's what i know is i don't know hi psychedelic magdalena sorry folks i was muted there for a second ah [ __ ] me i know if you're a bit the phone call um i'll be talking about that in a little bit my god i've got cotton now i'm gonna chamber around folks ah there we go boy howdy so i didn't know you women when you got those pap smears you know i i didn't understand i didn't know women ladies i am i i i feel i i really sorry for your pain plenty just scraping oh my god can you imagine uh how you doing john coyote hey what's up todd yeah trust me a lot i probably should have gotten it at 16. get your pap smear done girl it might save your life oh there comes from a medical professional folks shanny you know yeah jesus christ no my blood tests didn't come i had univer cancer i had a hysterectomy once you get that you don't need paps anymore ah so she's like first of all shani's already talked about how she's most likely got either uterine or cervix cancer so she's got it in her head that one way or the other folks she's gonna get [ __ ] cancer this time she's holy [ __ ] um dreaming of uterine cancer yeah oh then she can stop having pap smears wow what a trade-off folks [Laughter] holy [ __ ] thank you lady sinner thank you ladies sinner it hurt to have a uterus scrape

well i hope i do but i know i do it's either this one or that one you know i can't decide which one i want you know when doctor order blood tests man that means they definitely suspect cancer yes i don't know cancer is detected in different ways folks uh it's been the big c thing it's it's been the big c all along yeah oh god i thought you were talking about big c and i know i i've brought that up recently and things and trying to describe that whole episode was uh yeah it's been and and she talks about how you know the last time she had kobit i i think it's in this one folks it's really i i

she's dying now i know of course everybody has an expiration date you never know when but admittedly she's only been to a doc she's how many times has shanny had cancer how many times did shanny get uh covered uh how many times has shanny been how many times has shannon had cancer how many times has shanny had oh i mean what [ __ ] disease does shanny not [ __ ] have she knows she's dying she can't wait to meet jesus serious you know this earthly thing has all been just a bunch of [ __ ] to her nobody respects her excuse me yeah wasn't her breast her lump cancer yeah that thing that looks

dosage sometimes when i really felt like [ __ ] um and i you know admittedly i've done it now a lot of people have done it some people won't do it because that leads to addiction or whatever like that

days it just that video kind of kicked me up a little bit it made me laugh uh it just it turned my stomach um i think i watched it like four times just that last that last part and um there there there's people out there that um how do i put this really suck when it comes to um the levels they will stoop to to get sympathy um to uh i i've never i've i've watched uh shows documentaries youtube channels things like that that deal with people that do um different types of of and i'm going to be careful how i say this faking cancer getting a lot of [ __ ] money a lot there's a lot of different and i'm not saying that that that's what shanny's doing right now because i don't think she anybody believes her you know she's well there are a few people out there that probably do because they haven't been around long enough but when when when when you go around uh telling people right claiming that you have certain ailments or diseases that are very they're chronic they're life-threatening uh they can change your life forever right um they need a lot of medical attention um i don't know well granby you did your little thing um uh i actually had a doc with ms parker the other night about that um and um but that wasn't for any type of monetary gain it wasn't for sympathy even really it was it was [ __ ] joked it just didn't work um a really bad joke and everything and um but so but when you when you're on social media and you claim that one way or the other you know you just know you've got cancer how many times over the years has shanny thought believe she had cancer she was just one blood test away folks she was just one visit from the doctor i know why they're going to tell me what i have you know a little biopsy here thing or maybe i don't know i think a lot of us have had biopsies or whatever they call it you know when they see something they go hey let's check it out real quick you know you know that turned out to be nothing you know and normally they are you know and there are times i get it you know but um never never you know she's got shannon needs love you know the whole because it's all about her um because they are such a beautiful family oh jesus um oh remember folks shani's really really excited because the kids got to go to a party because she wasn't able to do that you know not even when they were in colorado when they had all that money and for todd's sake i'm not gonna say seven hundred thousand dollars i'm not gonna say 750 thousand dollars we're gonna say rev had they had the opportunity to set the kids up and some good programs out there right but did they no um because it was about shanny uh vacation yeah and now she's shani's got a the foster mother the boy's foster mother she's just a blessing from jesus you know she's a christian she believes in jesus you know my god she just knows that that god has brought us all together and and and you know we're going to be one big happy family type type attitude right and i'm not saying that the foster parents aren't christians and i'm not and i'm i wouldn't say how you doing great alien i'm not saying that the foster mother probably didn't kind of maybe almost come across like that because you know um that's how like like you know i just knew god you know and they're gonna you know god made it happen right jesus and you know so but i don't think that and it's a whole you know like oh we're all gonna work together and everything oh you got to comply you know you're allowed to yeah god she's got to go she got talked to her kids on video you know that was great oh the cat's running around meowing you know yeah and and like i said most people yeah what's the matter oh what the [ __ ] are you doing i have a weird cat oh gosh oh i love you too miss parker uh thank you for talking to me last night you really that you you made me feel good and and um yes you can see a can of ash i told you you know um i just forget it's up there but and i got the i got romeo over here but um ah jesus [ __ ] miss parker came in now i'm gonna get but hoping you have knowing you have this garnering uh [Laughter] okay i'll be as covert as possible um but i i've never i've i've i've i've had like i've been tested for what lung cancer i don't know how many times because i have first of all i have you know copd and they're always checking for that and i don't have cancer and i'm always going boy at least it's not cancer too um and other things you know when you get to a certain age um and and other people have had these tests right and and the last thing you want is for that test to come back positive that you have all cats are weird okay sweetie what's what's the cat's problem right now yeah what what's running around doesn't do this during this um watch me pee oh apparently the cat likes to watch my wife he shuts the door and cries i've smelled just crying out the door cause i closed it so i opened it a little bit and she didn't even come in she was walking around and then my house but yeah we pee together sometimes she goes in the box with me okay i shouldn't really say that yeah so the cat and um we have bathroom habits together yeah that's yeah that's odd i'm sorry anyway so hold on a second folks hold on just a second um while we're waiting for this right now because once again folks life happens uh i'd like you to listen to um the negro ninja um he's a he's quite a character folks uh so buckle up and we're gonna take care of something and i'll be right and the day before i dropped the last video i saw a [ __ ] on instagram preaching again okay and she was all over the place talking about evolution talking about the shape of the earth math and we was basically getting on her asking her do she believe in do she worship jesus and her response was that she would never give a man that much power over her okay now i find this whole scenario timely because a few days ago i was reading about solomon again and i just got done not that long ago and we know why solomon turned over to the dark side okay it's because of [ __ ] that did not worship god as it says in first kings seven through eight [Music] it reads then solomon built a high place for king mosh the abomination of moab and for molesh the abomination of the ammonites on the mountain east of jerusalem and so he did for all his foreign wives who made offerings and sacrifice to their gods okay [Music] now solomon is known for knowing nature to a t but simply knowing [ __ ] nature does not protect you from [ __ ] the word of god does the armor of god does which solomon decided not to put on when dealing with these [ __ ] okay you cannot deal with [ __ ] without putting on the armor of god okay and the women that he dealt with is similar to the one that i just described from the instagrams live stream trying to preach okay now solomon talks about quarries in women okay and being vexed by women quite a bit okay [Music] and one thing i notice about people that like to vex yes they have a lot to say they got a ton to say particularly about what you should be doing all right so let me break this down even further solomon had women that were not of god okay he had a thousand women that did not worship god matter of fact it was specifically from the tribe that god said not to deal with okay all right now how did the vexing get to solomon all right let me break it down even further [ __ ] are the world and the world is a [ __ ] okay remember folks [ __ ] are the world and the world is a [ __ ] oh god [Laughter] wow that's something to remember that's the negro ninja um now i i know what the kids are saying these days you know boy he's really jiggy with it yeah or something like that uh he's you know dropping the bombs he's got 99 problems and the [ __ ] is one that's true i don't know folks it's just oh god he's all oiled up it's like come get me ladies i don't know what he's doing he's preaching he's he's he's being sexy you know he needs to be oiled up folks you know because he's letting you [ __ ] know oh i can't get no [ __ ] because these [ __ ] be like solomon bit you know how solomon oh [ __ ] me folks how you doing boy howdy the things we like that one too but let's let's get back um i'll get that one off there uh because i'll be tempted to play more of it because you want to put wait ah god and this is what i'm to start trying to do less of folks because um just like my computer like i'm trying to keep my left my stuff alive with with uh what i have and but uh listening to negro ninja uh if you play ram ranch really slow or anything any music seductive some very white you know that's copyrighting but you know that type of that sound right that that you know uh and it would be like ah geez i don't i don't know um maybe the ladies would like him more i don't know folks oh [ __ ] anyway we're we're having some fun and uh like i said um the the the last um last week especially my like my last live stream um you know i i've been having a lot of phone calls and and i had a few appointments and things like that and stuff and a few things happened and then um uh you have conversations and uh you know kind of like life life uh kind of takes over for a while in your head you know uh as well as you know it'll [ __ ] with you sometimes and um so the last you know few days uh this last couple days especially um been really hard i know i put a thing on my community post which i swore i would never do i really do did and um but at the time i thought you know what i'm just gonna i thought gotta stay away for a week a week or two a week or two um this is a lot to deal with uh when when you're when you have certain conversations right and it just it [ __ ] me up and uh i talked to a few people and uh i i put in the uh description um some more than others and stuff but um and i'm like you know [ __ ] me um i like making fun of shannie so much i really do because um it makes me feel better i've never met anybody in my life it is ever hoped they had any type of cancer you know she might not say you know uh gee i open you know i hope i just the way i know it's this cancer i know it's that cancer she's been wanting cancer for [ __ ] years i i don't understand that some people will thank whoever they believe in that they don't have cancer some people will wish cancer on people i've had people wish cancer on me hasn't worked yet i've had people tell me that i've had that that that the the the deity that they they worship or something has caused me to have i don't know 26 [ __ ] heart attacks i haven't had one yet hopefully i don't have one and i'm not really at risk for a heart attack yeah my heart's fine uh sometimes it's you know i have anyway my heart's fine my liver jesus christ bond was telling people that i was gonna die of something with my liver because i was drinking like a fish and i had i i had uh what four was it four bloody marys really good bloody mary's too uh first night in vegas right uh something that i don't do and i explained it really i don't normally drink uh but i had a great time doing it um that was the first alcohol i drank since easter when i had another bloody mary just won and um so and my liver is fine you know so that was [ __ ] all right but jenny you know she she she claimed that it was her that that that she really somehow she didn't make it her fault right because she put it on god for the whole vengeance thing um so uh she had god um pardon her mother's heart uh which in the end may or may not have been because her death right i don't know exactly what she passed but jenny was sure it was her and god you know big c same thing right now if he ever had actually had a heart attack i don't know he disappeared after that whole thing and if you want anybody to explain the whole big c it takes a while but um and then me right in that video right apparently i was having heart attacks you know so she has no problem just throwing stupid [ __ ] out there you know um like i said i i've had people i find it entertaining outcast owls live how you doing why are you [ __ ] running from me um of course i have only contacted you a couple times but you know i just don't understand why you [ __ ] don't uh say hey grandpa come on the [ __ ] show um and stuff like that but i don't know if you can afford my writer uh my right because yeah being a big star now you know i mean apparently i've had 26 i'm i must be a medical miracle oh for [ __ ] sake um uh anyway adam you need to talk to these people you know see what you don't understand outcast house uh adam everywhere is uh go to the under the goddamn show these their potheads just like you i understand that um but uh the juggalo other juggalos uh oh wow if you want to come on our show you have to denounce miss parker and promise alex to be your black queen from now on now that's just not gonna happen um anyway thanks for being here i appreciate that but um what the [ __ ] was i going with this um uh yeah else told my love alexander he our houses are at war oh man oh man i you know hey well you know i like both of you know that um as uh old stinky used to say we are also an alternative news network so if you'd uh it um if you'd like to ever like put out your side you know uh i mean we are we are always open for um you know we'd like to cover this i mean because it's definitely something that's uh earth-shattering um jesus [ __ ] oh god damn it i have so much problems concentrating and jesus oh man folks i almost said you people you know and just because um [ __ ] just because i thought it you know i didn't say it actually but then i did um i'd like to take this opportunity to apologize to everyone out there uh for using the term hue people uh whilst describing uh my listening audience or you know people in the side chat um the term you people is it's wrong it's offensive and and probably racist in a lot of ways too folks and homophobic and i'm i we're we're getting help folks we're in therapy um we're about to graduate this week um and we'll even hopefully have a certificate um oh folks um how could i leave this [ __ ] oh crap there's 35 people watching that and there's a um apparently a fight in his night chat about um ah see there we go oh see there we go oh [ __ ] folks oh my god uh so there's a battle there's uh apparently uh a battle of black queens or something between ms parker and um um maybe i don't know maybe uh hey what's up solar so anyway um back to what i was talking about um and once again i'm just gonna [ __ ] ignore the chat for a bit so i'm gonna put so i can't i determine you people is direction for europeans why do you americans always i don't know it's just you know so i'm gonna just like not watch this for a while but um i i i was gonna i was gonna stop by making videos for a while because um not the things that are like um but some things are going to be changing in my life and uh uh it's it's it's gonna be fun uh i get uh to abuse but drugs to help me with quality of life um and some other services so uh hospice uh i actually do get a nurse comes in actually uh who i was on the phone with once again another you know apparently if shannon had needed a being a nurse you know they you know you get contact you know because but anyway so uh oh and then i get like what really makes me feel fun it would sound funny was when um remember when shanny uh was talking about how they might even give me a whole mail fade because i can't get around or some [ __ ] like that right well i get one um a couple days a week not for long just certain it's not the end type you know it's just it's certain task i can still pay myself folks you know i can you know have a chair um but you know mobility you know they're gonna help me with some stuff to get around and stuff and so basically it's it's um from keeping me and it's in home i'm not they have a place that if if necessary they can take you there but it's not necessarily that that's the end it's it's kind of a rehab for us it's it's the way it's it's the program they have anyway so um uh and the whole idea is you know keep me up keep me out of the emergency room because a lot of times when uh jenny likes to talk about how she can't breathe i just it she doesn't know what it's like not to be able to breathe or not not to be able to catch your breath maybe a couple of minutes you know oh yeah you're fat you know um but uh so so when when it is like hard to breathe um and like the nurse that was here yesterday i was going yeah she saw me walking around this partners on me walking around a little bit anyway so uh so uh there's certain things are gonna change i'm not exactly sure what and for a while i was like uh maybe i should just shut this down you know and uh [ __ ] me church bills it's uh 10 30 church spells at the local church but after watching shannon or corki and i i know i and i bring in i got the negro ninja right um i was sitting around and uh i was like how in the [ __ ] what i want to stop [ __ ] doing this because i i have a lot of fun and uh it's kind of what i do so we've got worthers folks folks actually gotta tell you the truth i've had this bag here right i've i've actually had this bag here with a bunch of like werther's in here right this this bag here right the one that you normally would see me when i grab my bag i've had this bag here probably for what six months now something like that since the holidays i don't know and um you can tell um but i've had other stuff over there so i only use the where there is especially not every time but anyway so uh watching shanny like oh jesus i hope it's this cancer you know or nick bravo pissing and moaning about how everybody's against him you know it's the eighth it's the criminality it's the criminals now it's it's everybody else's fault folks can't be his fault he's a genius why can't people see it [ __ ] stinky i mean for [ __ ] sakes he's not doing much right now because he really can't i think he understands he's pretty well [ __ ] he goes on uh j dubs streamer every once in a while and says stupid [ __ ] you know which who [ __ ] watches j dubs you know whatever the [ __ ] it is he is now or whatever um shanny or rev i mean for [ __ ] sakes look what they've reduced themselves to folks and they're god's anointed they're doing a good [ __ ] job ain't they oh let me see how the [ __ ] could i stop doing this [ __ ] well i mean i have more fun just oh and this this oh god uh g man we're just sitting back and i was thinking um i got a pretty serious question here atheism really at the end of the day um all about just teasing people all day and ready killing people all day and attacking people all day is this what atheists do with their time uh is atheism really about preventing people from having the bare essentials making sure children are homeless making sure adults are homeless making sure they try to ruin as many lives as possible this is what atheism lily is all about at the end of the day because the christianity was anything like atheism i wouldn't want anything to do with it and i think it's something that we really need to start thinking about like what are you guys doing with your lives what are you guys doing with your time it just seems like all you people want to do is hurt people and you don't want to do anything to help anybody how do you live with yourself when you do such things are you so miserable in your life that you have to try to destroy as many people as possible in order to be relevant in your own little world just saying listen to me guys you don't got to be this way the cure at the end of the day is jesus christ he can give you purpose jesus can save your soul and it can certainly give you much better things to do than going around putting people down all day is the devil mad and decided to take me off they said i violated community guidelines by reading the bible to all the christians out there i was reading the bible and they decided to shut me off instead i was going against community guidelines gotcha satan i caught you do you really want to force me out in the crowds i'll read the gospel out to the crowds and i won't bring any electronic equipment with me she's protecting you christians out there she's uh shannon anonymous or some [ __ ] and she's gonna uh yep how could i how could i and folks let's you guys doing this is very important in remembrance of the identities of satellite controllers it is very important that every ethnicity and race know which people are the satellite controllers because nobody wants to be blamed for what some other satellite controller controllers doing or what other whatever race is doing what they're doing you understand that no i have not received any of the monies from the treasury if they tried to send any monies i've not received nothing from nowhere they receive any letters from any friends or celebrities or females that are friends of mine haven't received nothing at all yet at all past 22 plus years you know if anybody sent anything in the mail if anybody dropped off any money anywhere for me didn't receive it don't forget i'm tax free too so you know somebody sent me money and then they claimed they thought i owed them something no that's not how things work you're supposed to write it off on your taxes because the government's blocking me from my money and the government the guy used to be huge look at that wow yeah is that chris yeah it was great but i was huge yeah wow i kind of look like amberlynn reed that's how much weight i've lost yeah you lost so much weight i did it's amazing i did like every like 570 there yeah something like that yeah yeah what i need is a mood stabilizer like as soon as i wake up [Music] i love you uh he said it would be later on these cheez-its puffs are [ __ ] amazing and yes i'm eating today yeah those are pretty good i annihilated those thinkers last night all the snaps yeah they're so good they're amazing why is this so good we are cheddar loving people these are the best and they are the absolute bad let me take my benadryl

think i'm better giant donuts from what i remember oh my god oh my gosh i haven't had like bakery doughnuts in a long time oh my god northerners i swear to god they know how to do it so what northerners make the best donuts admittedly folks i live up north we have dunkin donuts we were and dunkin donuts said they make the best donuts but there's a lot of bakeries folks you know that make really [ __ ] good donuts even in the south folks or in the midwest or out west you know in canada you know um but uh bakery donuts right which probably i'm guessing probably came from either the food bank or um yeah though i don't know folks um sometimes you can get uh like packages of like pastries or something go bakery fresh you know um but uh at no time do they ever on camera right i mean kids right how things are going shanny likes to talk about her life she says she doesn't but she uh oh there goes the cat again cat's on a prowl today looking around uh oh i checked out the box nope go over there nope oh gonna sit up okay anyway um so and i i don't know how it is because i've never had children like taken from my custody um hey lady starfire how are you uh thank you for the like message yesterday that really that really made me feel good that really really did uh but um but i'm like trying to get past all that getting emotional [ __ ] you know right now uh because we're talking about shanny uh she claims cps gets them food i have she's claiming it is the kids are gone but child protective services is still giving them food because shanny doesn't understand what cps is i don't think folks it's government babysitting you know it's two she gets better you know it's for shanny folks remember shannie has to be better so instead of like uh yeah food banks giving food yeah i've gone to food banks we you know a lot of food banks have gotten really good people need them um cps cow protective services there you go folks there there you [ __ ] go jesus that uh yeah exactly miss parker it's it's like seriously folks what the [ __ ] uh my kids are gone uh they're at a great place nice christian lady she loves jesus jesus you know god brought us together you know what i mean it's gonna be a good match and we're all gonna get along right uh the kids are doing fine they actually got to go to a party you know those kids haven't been to a party ever they didn't even know what a [ __ ] party was they've heard of parties but boy howdy they've actually never been to a [ __ ] party we sent him to a party folks we sent the boys to a party they had a wonderful time uh they've had pony rides they've uh they've met other kids right they're joining they're they're in that they've got friends folks who don't [ __ ] thought my kids got friends holy [ __ ] uh folks see and we're working closely with cps you know because because it's it's it's my my uh my uterine and or uh cervical cancer that's uh basically like uh it's it's it's probably that it might be ms folks it might be ms uh but it's definitely uh either cervical and it's it's there's about five types of cancer that i just folks cps summer camp out there having a grand time you know and when i'm feeling better you know then then and the lord willing you know because you know she goes because you know being you know god's god's daughter and all you know protecting her look at the way she just moms all of that [ __ ] donut jesus her five bro has cancer that's right folks my five girl has cancer oh [ __ ] oh yeah seriously i mean i yeah uh i i think the older boy might i don't know from what i hear from what i understand the older or the older kids um uh who seems to have might have the best chance of uh you know adapting maybe um what's this wait till she finds out after a few months the kids like where they are and don't want to come home like von's kids oh yeah oh and that and then you know let's see shannon's going to be willing to travel right you know why because the state and or the county will probably either they'll get cash with because you know they're gonna they're you know they don't have anything right i don't know sometimes g-man gives them gas money um i i don't know how far the kids are away but um uh yeah we'll see uh but there's gonna be pro i don't know maybe not um but i i i'd be willing to uh i'd be willing to bet that uh uh this whole cps thing with with our kids and stuff probably doesn't really end well for them or the way shanny thinks it's going to end but then like you said celebrity juicer she can blame that on dragnet too you know because you know like revs titty his nipple video right you know blame that on drag too you know because if it wasn't for drag then then rev wouldn't have gotten on camera and and showed us um uh nipples and stuff and talked about jenny pissing i mean okay pace pissing um i'm red once again um yep yeah exactly um i don't know how that works in pennsylvania i don't know how that works in scranton and pennsylvania but uh yes it uh definitely it'll be all drag small you know it's it's it who else folks um all drugs yeah and uh wait until they start being charged child support that's uh yeah that's gonna come how long have the boys been gone yeah that's gonna be fun folks all right yeah what why do they want us to pay them they'll have the same excuse we don't have anything you know the trolls

UNCG Libraries ULVLC: Creating Engaging Virtual Meetings
And I'm going to introduce our presenter today, Sam Harlow, our awesome online learning librarian. We'll be talking to us about creating engaging virtual meetings. I will be looking at the chat. Sam will be, to some extent, able to see the chat one way or another. If you have a question, please feel free to put it in the chat, whether it's content related or something that I can answer tech wise. And that is where I will stop and let Sam take over. All right, thanks. So, yeah, like Jenny said, today, we're talking about creating engaging virtual meetings. You all know me. This is Sam. So, one thing, I sometimes tell Jenny that- you need to give me for her to give me feedback. And one thing she pointed out was like, am I really talking about meetings versus teaching? And I'm talking about both. All the techniques and strategies mentioned in this presentation could be used in a virtual teaching session, whether you're at a conference or with students, patrons, your employees or in a meeting with your colleagues, a working group, anything that you could do synchronously through Zoom, through WebEx, this could work. So today I'm really focusing on Zoom because I mean, I know I'm being recorded, but I don't think this is super controversial to say, ITS will be looking at whether or not they renew their WebEx contracts after the fall. So in December 2020. And it's looking like with people's feedback on Zoom that they really like Zoom. It's going to be Zoom and we're not going to have both WebEx and Zoom at a certain point. So don't panic. We still have WebEx for a while, but to get used to Zoom will be important. So this presentation really talks about again, just all these strategies to engage people, to do group work, collaborative writing, all these active learning strategies. But when I talk about learning objectives or student learning objectives, I'm also talking about meeting objectives. But if you want to learn more about student learning objectives, kind of the teaching pedagogy side of things, rubrics, I do have this presentation that I gave to ROI and that I've sent you a couple of different departments on Sink or Swim: Getting Started with Virtual Instruction at UNCG. So in this presentation, I talk about that as well as asynchronous stuff. So you will get a link to this presentation at the end of this and you can look through that as well. So, OK, so we're really talking about active learning, right, so I know a lot of us have this training, but Banwell and Eyssen describe active learning strategies as instructional activities involving students and doing things and thinking about what they are doing. So really, just getting people in our meetings, are our students in our meeting to to engage with the content, that is active learning. So L. Dee Fink has come and talked here a couple of times and they build upon Bonwell and Eison's definition by describing a holistic view of active learning that includes all of the following components, information and ideas, experience and reflective dialogue. This framework can be a helpful tool to consider how your students encounter new information and ideas, engage with information and ideas, and reflect on their learning. So I'm going to talk about these strategies in terms of this framework for this presentation. I'm going to talk about encounter, engage and reflect and how we can think about how we can get our participants to actively engage in all of these things. So here's some examples, right. So I've had a couple of meetings in the last couple of weeks with various departments around UNCG libraries, as well as UNCG as a whole, where I have had a lot of faculty librarians say to me, why do you think pair share? I do peer review. I do collaborative writing. I do one minute paper, reflective work, student led sessions and more. So really today we're going to talk about how to model that. So again, you know, there's kind of people don't really like it when you say like, well, just completely duplicate what you were doing in person because that's not possible. The big thing about a lot of things is that we're used to doing these kind of activities in a shared space, whereas anything online synchronous, though, we're all here at the same time, virtually, we are not in the same room. So we're going to talk about tools that can help you think about doing the stuff with your participants at a distance, you know right, where they can't nessecarily- where you can think about, how can you get them to talk to each other or how can you get them to work on a document together all synchronously. So again, today, we're really going to focus on synchronous sessions. So the first thing we're going to talk about, number one, before we kind of go into the nitty gritty of examples, ideas and tools, is that you really need to get prepared by knowing your technology. So, you know, ITS at this point is offered a lot of stuff on Zoom. And I would recommend continue to look at that. If you haven't been to any sessions, even if you've been in a lot of Zoom rooms, still looking through the training and understanding your options as the host are going to be really important. So you, we have access to Zoom meeting which does have a three hundred person limit. I do think we're kind of starting to dip our feet in the water about Zoom webinar. I know for this ADAPT conference that was like an instructional technology conference for professors trying to convert stuff online for the semester, for next semester is, was they did you Zoom webinar. So I guess we're trying it out and seeing but for now, really just assume that we have Zoom meetings, which is the big difference is that it's a three hundred person limit, but you can go access your settings through UNCG. Zoom.us. So be sure to check that out if you haven't. Even if you've only been attending sessions, if you're ever planning on hosting a session, this is a good place to explore. So if you go there and you log in, the first thing you're going to see is the thing on the left where you can look at your settings. This is where you can set up that thing. You can see in the chat of different engagement levels where people can give you a thumbs up, let you know to slow down, speed up, that kind of thing, that has to be turned on in your settings. Another thing, as Jenny was saying at the beginning, you can turn on that bell when people enter the room, by default that is turned off. But if you want to turn that on, you can. So all those kinds of options, including setting up breakout rooms ahead of time. So keep that in mind. So we're going to talk about breakout rooms and Zoom in this training. And again, they're still doing trainings on Zoom. This link right here goes out to ITS' Web page, UNCG ITS where you could look for their workshops. So, again, speaking of the workshops, here is a lot of links that I'm not going to go out to all of them. But here's a lot of different resources we have, not only, like, Zoom and virtual meetings and tech, but also instructional technology. Right. Thinking about these different tools, what you can and can't use, UNCG, what we support and what workshops are being offered. So here are the tech training, the instructional tech trainings I've offered over the last three years, which covers a lot of the things we're going to talk about today, such as the nitty gritty of Zoom, the links to breakout rooms, this and links to polling tools, things like that. ITS knowledge base is the ITS, the place where all of the documentation gets stored. So you go over there and search Zoom and it's going to show you how to log in, it's going to show you a link to workshops and the things that ITS is offering. We have been offering to webinar series that you can see for years that we typically promote to people teaching at UNCG, but they're open to librarians and all of the recordings are available there. So we do want unresearched application that I know many of you have done stuff for, but we also do one hosted typically by ITC instructional technology consultants on online learning and innovation. So we've had stuff, again, that I'm going to talk about today on there, such as Hybradocs and making collaborative writing documents. We've had sessions on creating more engaging sessions, best practices and virtual meetings using these different kinds of tools. So check that out if we have it, they're all 30 minutes, they're pretty short and recorded. And I think Michael's here. Him and Marcus are doing a great job helping us with close captioning those as well. So they should all be good to go with that. So we also have this instructional technology tool kit which really links out to just overall, again, documentation about these tools. The Digital Media Commons and the digital ACT studio are here to help. I think some of you all are here today. They can help you with, again, creating engaging online content, instructional technology tools, all that kind of stuff. And then we have the Learning Technology Training and Workshop page. If you haven't been there, it's in the last couple of months. It's a new platform, I think about six months ago where you can sign up for virtual- they're all virtual now, virtual workshops on a variety of these tools. And lastly, we have this page on accessibility at UNCG. So thinking about preparation is key. So knowing your tool, looking at your settings, thinking about how you want people to come into your Zoom room, what settings you want to use in Zoom, but also, it also means like preparing your session like so for today, when I did this session, I made the slide deck and it doesn't always mean memorizing a script. I did not write a script for this. It depends on how much you know, how- what your style is similar to that face to face interaction. How do you work best? Do you need a piece of paper in front of you that reminds you to slow down to look at the chat? Sometimes I have to do that as again, you all know from seeing me present, I speak quickly. So again, kind of knowing your presentation style and adapting that to the online environment. A lot of times with synchronous meetings, something to keep in mind is that it will take more time to do activities than they don't. So thinking about your timing as well. So students prefer instructors to be themselves, but not sound super rehearsed, right? They like you to be able to flex. They like you to be able to, like, engage with them in the chat. If they bring up a story, kind of bring that into your teaching and lecture, check in with them periodically, acknowledge that what's happening in the chat. Again, don't be afraid. And we're going to talk about this. But I kind of mentioned this throughout. Don't be afraid to have activities that you would utilize in your face to face class. So if you do a think pair share and anything like that, do keep in mind that you could also use it here. So make sure your activities connect to your student learning objectives. Or again, your meeting objectives. Right? So if you have an agenda for a meeting, you have objectives. That's your objectives. Make sure you're connecting back to that and touching base with your agenda periodically. So think about if you need requirements in your session. Right. So like tech requirements and we're going to talk about that a little bit. But like, you know, participants will come in on a phone and that really does affect collaboration. So keeping that in mind and again, being flexible with the activities you plan are going to be really important. So let students use the chat to interact with each other. So even if you're not using chat, having the students like answer a couple of fun questions at the beginning is great. They typically like that as an icebreaker. So something I do with my online classes is I'll say, you know, tell me about what you're watching on the TV. So right now I'm watching Killing Eve on Hulu. Where are you all watching? And then, you know, if you're like you don't watch TV, what book are you reading right now? Things like that. And that can kind of get it started as you're getting the stuff up, kind of going through the lecture activity. So knowing your technology, you know, we talked about that, but also its limitations. Right. So thinking about the participant limit, thinking about what it can and can't do in terms of breakout rooms, what's recorded is going to be important. OK, so now we've kind of talked about prepping, getting prepared. We're going to talk about screen sharing and demoing, so the encounter part of active learning. So I'm going to check the chat. If anyone has any questions, let me know. if you don't mind. I'm actually going to beat myself for just one second because my two year old is screaming in the background. So let me get my five year old involved. I'll be back in one second. Sorry. The five year old's going to help too, it'll be great. OK, so thinking about your instruction, right. So like and you all can tell me in the chat, I know not everyone here is an instruction librarian, does instruction for their job, but a lot of us, if we are instruction librarians, have had to maybe host a meeting, host a session, a workshop or a conference presentation. Again, I'm kind of talking about instruction in more of a lecturing leading point of view. So flipping instruction, which is the idea that you can give your participants something to do or read ahead of time works really well in an online environment. So is there some kind of reading or video that you can send to your participants ahead of time so that you can spend less time lecturing? Right. Like what I'm kind of doing now and then more time, like having a conversation, using the chat, that kind of thing. So, yeah, someone does that put Rico in charge. Yeah, that's my dog. He's right next to me. He doesn't care about the two year old is crying, so. When you're thinking about beyond flipped learning as well, there's another thing to keep in mind with your lecturing style, with how you present online, is connecting these aspects of learning strategy, right? Engaging your participants with something called Universal Design for Learning UDL. So thinking about accessibility is beyond just like making sure a screen reader works on it. It also is thinking about accessibility by creating multiple forms of representation, engagement, action and expression. So when you're lecturing, when you are thinking about that, ideally you're thinking about reading, you know, not one kind of style, right? Like, we don't really know how students learn. That's the thing about accessibility. People learn a lot of different ways, have a lot of different learning styles, preferences. So thinking about different ways, you could kind of hit upon in representation, engagement, action, expression will be key. So if you want to learn more about this, this is not a whole you know, UVL session about this. There's a link here to a presentation Amy and I did a couple of years ago for NCLA on online learning and connecting UDL. OK, so what I'm doing right now is screen share. So this is the most used feature of Zoom, WebEx, any kind of virtual meetings for a good reason. Right. It's important to demo things for your audience. It's important for them to see your screen, to see some kind of visual. Right. I remember when I first started at the School of Education as an instructional technology consultant, and we would get complaints because there were professors who were teaching online, but they weren't using any visuals. Right. It was just audio. And students were getting frustrated because they were saying they had a hard time engaging with the content. So, again, use it. Most people do. And again, there is a reason behind that. So here's some kind of tips and tricks to think about when you think about screen sharing and lecture. And I'm not perfect. I felt like I can take my own advice occasionally. So be sure to pause and breathe, take breaks after slides or periodically throughout the presentation to check in with your participants. So you're going to use chat, right, to drop links and communicate with. And if there's a co presenter, that's a good thing where you all can kind of switch off, right? Someone can be lecturing, someone can be monitoring the chat, periodically. Again, I said this before, but engage the chat, right? If someone brings up that they're really connecting to UDL or that they've used UDL like share that, let them, give them a chance to share it. Take a break. So again, with your timing, thinking about allowing extra time for this kind of flexibility will be great and being flexible overall. I believe it is important really, if any meeting and any instruction. But it's particularly important for online where, again, the there's a lot of things that are out of your control. So in a classroom, a lot of times you can say, like everyone put your phone away so that I know you're not playing on a phone. You can do that. I don't want to do that. But some people do in an online environment, you can't do that. There's no way you can make them not be playing on their phone. I mean, again, I've done it in a meeting like we've all done it in a meeting. It's fine. But then again, having these kind of check ins and the chat, giving them these activities that we're about to talk about are a good way to make sure that they're engaging at least a little bit beyond just watching your lecture. So going beyond your slide helps, right? So, like I always recommend, like a lot of people will share the whole PowerPoint. I actually recommend sharing your screen and being willing to flex. Right. So in that you can now x out of it and be like, oh, you know, someone just brought up this database. Let me quickly bring it up. Right. Like I was able to quickly x out of that presentation, go into a browser and showcase something in that way. So again, you don't have to only stick to your slides and keep that in mind. But but also, again, know your technology, know your audience, maybe for a, you know, a conference presentation. They don't want you doing that. Maybe they would rather have screenshots of the database. So keep that in mind as well. OK, so now we talked about, again, the lecturing part, the engage part. Again, I'm going to pause and I'm checking the chat. Let me know if you have any questions. Sorry, that was my kids running around. They'll survive. So now we're going to talk about actual things to do to engage now that I've done the opposite of what we talked about and lectured you all for a good 15 minutes, so. Let's do it. So the things to think about before you think about group work, think pair share again, all these different kinds of, like, synchronous group things we can do online. There are some considerations that you need to think about that maybe you wouldn't think about as much for a face to face. So something for a face to face meeting. You do think about your audience, right? You think about like are they coming in with a laptop? Do they have a laptop? Is it necessary for them to have a laptop? Am I in a computer lab? You know, that kind of thing. So with ROI, a lot of times the way we do our instruction is in the computer labs in Jackson Library because then we know they're going to have access to this computer that gives them access to the Internet. And we know it has these tools that are pre downloaded by our amazing ERIT crew. So with online, you don't you can't control that. You know, that they're somehow interneting. Right, in terms of being on the phone or being on a computer. But you do not know whether they are on a phone or computer, you know, unless you tell them that ahead of time. Right. So a lot of this group work. It really works best on a computer or a Chromebook. We're going to talk a lot about Google Apps, which will work on a Chromebook, but something like a breakout room does not work on mobile. So if you're planning an activity like this for a class, you'll have to really give them a lot of heads up about that and also be prepared that not everyone is going to be able to participate and have a backup plan in place. So if timing is an issue, then you need to keep that in mind. I like that excellent rad information technology. So- sorry my five year olds here and trying to tell me something. But- Rose, you need to go. I'm presenting. All of these. OK, y'all keep your little toy, OK? OK. I don't think there's any. OK. I love you very much. Alright. Is time an issue? So, again, like I said, if you if you have a, you know, a presentation, you need to get. Whether it's for a conference, you know, you need to think about what are the important points that I have to make in terms of lecture demo and then what are the activities. And then if you think an activity is going to take, let's say, three minutes, I would give yourself seven just to be sure that you can flex people and their technology. So keep that. Sorry. Are you connecting back to the objectives or are you connecting back to your student learning objectives or your meeting objectives? So again, always going back to what are you trying to achieve? Sometimes people think that, like, you have to have group work to keep people interested. That's not always the case. Remember, especially in this covid-19 reality we're in- where you just heard it happening with me. A lot of times people are juggling, their children, their care-giving responsibilities. Maybe their dog is an issue. Maybe they're their Internet is bogged down based on where they live. Maybe they had to come in mobile because they're waiting somewhere to pick someone up. We just don't know anyone situation in this kind of virtual environment. So, again, just again, it all goes back to that kind of thing. I should have named this presentation: Being flexible, having backup plans and that kind of thing, so. OK, so we're going to try out breakout rooms with this audience, but I also have a link here for you all to watch on a three minute video by Zoom where they have use their fancy equipment, where you see a video view like a bird's eye view of how they do breakout rooms. So because of the nature of Zoom, I can't like screen- or I can't present to you how I'm showing you the breakout rooms, though pretty much it's a button at the bottom of your screen. So I'm going to stop sharing and I'll turn my- Turn my video back on for a second, I muted myself, so the way it works is like here we are as a group, right? You can preassign breakout rooms. You have to do that in your Zoom settings, which I talked about at UNCG.zoom.us after you scheduled a session. So you scheduled a session and then click edit and then you'll see an option to add in breakout rooms. You can also upload a CSV file of participant names that will shoot them into rooms that you can assign. But the way it works is that if you're the host at the bottom of your screen, you go up here to. There is a breakout room option, which I'm actually not seening, so, but I'm the host. So anyway, usually if you're the host, there is a breakout room option and again, be sure you check your settings ahead of time. So, someone just made me the host. So you'll see then if you don't see at the bottom of your screen, you can go into breakout rooms. Right. And it is an option under more. So from there, you click on a button and then you're going to get, how many participants in the room. So in this session, we have 13 and then I can decide how many rooms. So I'm going to set up two rooms and then you have an automatic or manual option. If you select manual, it's going to shoot you where you'll have to pick who is in each room. But I'm going to do automatic or it's going to because there's 13 of us. It's going to create two rooms of about six to seven participants per room. And it tells me all of that. And then I'm going to click create room. It tells me the room. So right now, I'm seeing that in breakout room. It's going to be Anne, Brown, Cheryl, Jenny, Pack, Shaun, Terry Branstad. And then Breakout Room two is going to be Anna, Lois, Marilyn, Mark, Michael and Sara. So I'm going to go, and you are going to get a message. And you all can go to your rooms. I see people joining great. OK, I see people coming back in. Hopefully, that was fun, we all saw how it looked in terms of participants, right, what's what you had, what you don't have if you want to understand more what your participants are able to do and not do, again. Be sure you check out your settings, at uncg.zoom.us So the way it's working right now is that there are a couple of people still hanging out in the breakout rooms. So, you know, they'll have to come back. Breakout room 2 seems to still be holding on. Maybe they're planning something. But right now I'm seeing a message on my screen that says all breakout rooms will close regardless in 10 seconds. So, again, they're coming back now. Wow. Group two, y'all must have really had fun. So, and now see they're done. So after the breakout rooms are done, the way it works is that as the host, you get a message that keeps the room. So I could go back to lecturing right now and then minimize this and keep it up. And then in five minutes I could reopen the exact same rooms. I also could drag and drop or, no, it actually says move to if I hover above someone's name. So like if I thought, like, Anna was being inappropriate in breakout room two, I could move her or exchange her for another person to a different room. So that's the way it worked. So, Sam, we had a question in the chat and I don't know if you could see it because Brown asked it in our breakout room. And so I don't know if those chats are available to everyone or not. So that's my question, actually. Let me look, so I can join rooms as host so I can't see the chats as they're happening. I mean, I have to join the room, though, actually, that was what his question was. He asked, are you in one of the rooms. So that, I could have joined, but I wanted you all to just, like, see it on your own. I could have hopped into one and then the other as the person who starts the breakout room, you're kind of like the the god of the breakout rooms. You decide where they went, the end. You can hop back and forth between them. You have to, I think, join to chat them. But did you all see my broadcast messages, right? Yes, we did. So that was me clicking a button in the field that said broadcast message to all and then it went to both groups simultaneously. But I don't see your responses to it unless I join a room. That was my first time doing that in Zoom, so hopefully that was fun. You can set up, move all participants into breakout rooms so automatically you can allow participants to return to the main session at any time, that's how that one was set up. You can have breakout rooms close automatically after X amount of minutes. So if you wanted to set kind of a timer where it happens automatically, that works. You can count down after closing breakout room as well. So the countdown we had set up automatically by default was 60 seconds. But you can make it shorter or longer. OK, so any other questions about breakout rooms before I go back to screen sharing? Hopefully, that was fun. I don't know if you all have ever done that before. I've heard it at UNCG people are starting to use it, but there it is. We did it. OK, so there are other things beyond breakout rooms. Again, the breakout rooms are fun, but the issue with breakout rooms is if you have if you're like teaching, for example, to a LIS class or another class, maybe it's not a class that they're requiring synchronous activities. And if that's the case, they might not have a laptop, maybe their laptops broken. Maybe a lot of people thought, well, this is just going to be a lecture and I'm just going to sit and watch on my phone again while I'm making dinner. So you really have to prepare your participants. And again, for me, even when I'm done with, like, a LIS class, which those are required to be synchronous courses. So I think, like, the first time I ever did it, I just was like, yeah, like they're going to be coming in on laptops from their house to like, this is a three hour lecture. Why would they be in their car? Incorrect. A lot of them were in their car in there, you know, at another person's house watching their kids at the same time. So I've learned from that that, you know, if you're going to do something like that, you give them a big heads up and give them time. And you also give them alternatives. Some alternatives that we're going to talk about next are Google Apps. So let me get my chats. Let me put it up. Hiding, so, yeah, Brown said, my professor used breakout rooms in the waiting room to have one on one discussions during office hours. Interesting. I like it. Great strategy. Yeah, and you can do pairings like, you know, like that would be another way that you could do think, pair, share, right. If you wanted to have pairs of people communicating with each other, you would have to create a lot of breakout rooms of two. So Google Apps also works really well for collaborative activities. So really, I'm going to talk about Google Docs, Google Sheets and Google form. And I'm also going to talk about Google slides. But you all probably know by now that all Google Apps have the ability, that when you share a link to a form and you can either create it as a view-link, that's the default and a default. So when you set up a view link that you do it first at UNCG but you can also turn it on that anyone can view, but you can also switch it, on the right, so anyone can view to anyone can edit. So if you create these editable links to Google Docs, Google Sheets, then you've created a collaborative document that many people can work on at the same time synchronously in a session, and then you as the lecturer can pull them up, watch it happen and monitor it again. Going back to think about your audience. The only control you have over a Google doc, you can kick someone out of a Zoom, right? You can kick someone out of a breakout room. You can join breakout rooms, a Google doc once they have that editable link and you probably can, you know, the anonymous animals come up. If they start misbehaving or doing something on that, it's hard to kick them off. All you can really do is like shut it down, make it uneditable. So keep that in mind. You're working with certain audiences that that might be a problem. So Google Docs and Google Sheets were pretty much the same. But like, you know, a doc would be that you wanted to kind of be in that document format, whereas Sheets puts it in the Excel format. Right. With columns and rows, both of those are that everyone can see the work being done. So if you want people to kind of answer you on the backend and then you can share the results, a Google form is more private, right? Where you can't- it can be anonymous. You can't see, you know, people working in real time. You can set a timer up. So, again, it's more like a poll, on that. So I use all three of these typically in a lecture to a class to do activities. So I'm going to show you some examples of how that could work. So here is a class I teach for LIS, where I have them do a rubric activity where I use a combo of Google Docs and Google forms. So I'm going to go out to the Google Docs. So I what I do is I drop the link to this Google doc in the chat. Right. And then I have- I kind of guide them through what the activity is going to be. So this activity is going to be that we're going to review the AASL standards for the 20th century learner, which is the American Association of School Librarians. So we go through the standards and frameworks. We think through what it's for, why it exists. And then really what we're looking at here are these on page four, which I marked in my Google doc of their domains and competencies and their shared foundations and commitments. Then we talk about- we at this point in the lecture, we've already talked about what a rubric is. Right. And then what I'm asking them to do is look at this. The share learners adapt, communicate and exchange learning project with others in a cycle that includes interacting with content presented by others, blah, blah, blah, blah. And then I show them an example of a rubric that I have made about another, about different competencies. Right. Think and create. And then I have a comment. Right, that these are the values and these are the criteria. And like a little sample rubric. So then once they had a thought through it, they get about five minutes to come up with their own that they put into a Google for. So the question- I have questions. And then comments, so then as they're working on this, I could have a timer up, like y'all probably seen those timers you can get from like YouTube or Google. And then when they're done, I have their responses right here. And I can go through it with them, right, I can be like, OK, great, I love your values, OK, there's still some confusion about values. So let's talk through this a little bit more, that kind of thing. I see. You know, if they really think this is a useful activity for their makerspaces, for the future makerspaces and then, you know, what do you like, what do you not like? What are some comments? And then some of them like recommend things so on. So let me know if there's any questions about that. So here's an example of an editable link for the same class where we talk about makerspace websites and we run a group activity through a Google spreadsheet. So they typically have about 30 minutes to do this with 30 students. So here's an example from a class that I taught in the summer of 2017 where I have them, again, I have the instructions at the top. Step one, what are you doing? So they are actually put into breakout rooms for this. I have five minutes to go over the websites individually. They fill answer comments on the spreadsheet, they pick an answer and then they pick a speech- person to speak for their group. So what they're doing is they're- each group is going out to these different websites and then they put a kind of summary of what they think of the website. So, again, they're doing this themselves, they get an editable link, so if you don't know how to make an editable link, just quickly you click on share. And then right here, this is a view link, right, but you can click change from viewer to editor. And if this is set to UNCG, be sure you warn your participants that they need to be logged into their UNCG account to access it, you just change it to editor and then anyone who has this can go in and edit the spreadsheet. If there's any questions or concerns, let me know, so there's something called Google Hyperdocs that people have spent like full hours of dedicated- a lot of time talking about. But basically it's the same idea of creating group and collaborative activities using Google Docs and Google slides. So this was been invented by K-12 teachers and they have full books about it. Here are the teachers who invented it. So you can buy a book. You can also look through their website. They have a lot of different resources about what it is, how to use them. And they also have tons of templates. Right. So ways to package them. So let's say you're like, OK, I want a Google Doc, Hyperdoc, you can click on that and see how I now- I'm on a Google doc and I can go to file, make a copy and it's going to put this in my Google doc where I can then create an editable link to this and fill out my information. If I wanted to create a similar activity about going places with Google Maps or again, my own learning objectives for this kind of thing. So this is also a full website, again, of templates. So if you wanted to create a Google Slide, I've been a part of conference presentations that did that. You can just click like you're- like this looks great. I'm going to do this framework for twenty first century learners. You can click here and then it automatically creates the copy for you that you can name and start editing. And so this thing, again, similar to the Google doc, the Google spreadsheet, the Google sheets. Right. You can then create an editable link where people can fill out their own Google Slide, based on the instructions you give them. How'd you get out of the [Inaudible] I helped her. Okay... [Inaudible Crosstalk] [Inaudible] Stay in the kitchen. I better not find crumbs in there. Sorry, I love my children, ok. And so then you could go into here again. You know, again, here is some stuff to think about. Sometimes people create slides where they have groups already predetermined. So you could say, you know, in your own here, file, peer group one. Right. Names that start with. Y'all, go downstairs. Right. So on and so on. Depending on your group, maybe you would want to do the next one. So on, right? And then when it's sent out, I could send you all an editable link, I can have instructions in here of what I wanted you to do, and then you would be filling out. Right? Text box, images. You could insert a bimoji, a picture of yourself. Again, whatever the activity had, I just was in a webinar session where they're doing a webinar about, you know, information literacy, instruction and deficit, deficit and equity. And they're going to be doing a lot of group activities using Google Docs. The Google Docs are going to be set up like this where they have a tinyURL for each group, even though they're going to be like three hundred people in the room. And then people are going to go out and like, fill out the Google Docs. So again, you have worksheets, you have these think, share, pairs already set up. You can split them up based on how many people are going to be in there. These kind of activities do work on a mobile device or a Chromebook, the mobile device, they might have to download an app to edit the slides, edit the doc. And so, again, you can give them a heads up at the beginning of the session or ahead of time, depending on that. So here's a webinar that Rachel did in the fall, maybe last year. What is a time? Where she goes through it and gives you more resources and shows examples to. OK, so some people are like man, I don't even want Google, I'm moving forward, and another one that I hear a lot about is Padlet, so Padlet is not technically UNCG supported tools. So here's my pitch, if you use Padlet, you're on your own. Do not put in a ticket to ERIT or to UNCG ITS about Padlet. But if you want to try it out and play with it, it is a tool you can use that is just a different visual outlook and people can edit it at the same time. So similar to anything that we've talked about today. Right? Zoom, Breakout rooms, Google Apps. You need to understand the settings. So don't just go to Padlet and share a link, you need to make sure it's an editable link. If that's how you're doing it, you need to make sure you test it ahead of time. You also need to understand the limitations of a free tool that UNCG does not have an account to, last I checked, and I think they might have changed it for covid-19. And again, some tools are doing that, but it might revert back in the fall. Who knows is that you can only have five Padlets at a time. You can make a copy of a Padlet, so don't delete, so you can copy and have it over, then delete one as you create new ones. But here's an example. So I actually Kathleen, I don't think she's here, but she said this to me as an example of something that SCUA might want to do that's Tammy Brewer from UNCG LIS did help them do when they did a workshop with a K through 12 teachers. Just make sure I'm like referencing all the right people. So Tammy Brewer created this for a workshop they were doing with teachers about primary sources. So you can see here they had the session. You know, it's a column based thing. There's other layouts, too, but columns seem to be pretty popular for this kind of activity. So they have the column resources embedded on the left. They had instructions of the activity they wanted to do. So again, you need to make sure you type out the instructions that you really think through how it's going to work. And then they had the groups pre determined by the school with the assigned reading, and then people could comment on the reading based on the instructions on this column under instructions. So sorry, I don't have a link to this, but Kathleen sent me the screenshot, and so this is something that you could recreate kind of once you got to know. So here's another example of a teacher who set up one with her students on themes in Persepolis. I think of Persepolis, where the students put their names, groups of their names and then put comments on it. So, again, you could draw up a link to this in the chat. The big thing with Padlet is to make sure that it's an editable one. So right now they've turned off the editing. Right. If you if it is set up to be editable, you'll see a little plus button right here. And then you can add a thing, one to keep- one thing to keep in mind about Padlet for this kind of format of synchronous sessions with the boxes is that as people are adding things in, in real time, the boxes shift and it can be very disorienting. So be careful. That might be what was just commented in the chat. So keep that in mind. Yes. So, Jamie said I love Padlet, so yeah. My big thing with Padlet is just again, if you're using it synchronously, I do recommend this type of layout right. Of the columns because then it keeps it organized. Whereas when you have the kind of boxes layout that I showed you there, they shift. So here's an example really quickly of one I sent in a flipped way to my KIN EdD one where I have them tell me their research interests ahead of time and see I put one in there so that I could know myself here. Right. And then they then fill out things with their research interests. And I can then know right for their whole time here what their research is. And so this is nice for me to have. It also saves me time in these. Like I only get them for about an hour in these orientation's where I don't like where everyone goes around and introduce themselves, where I can like look at this ahead of time and keep that in mind. So again, notice here there isn't- because I am the editor of this, I can click on this plus button and add things. And then when you go to share, this is where you need to make sure you're really clear. Right. Are you making this private or public? Is it secret? You know, are you you know, this wouldn't work right for everyone if I just sent them this link right now. Whereas right now, or maybe they can, I don't know. My point is that just be careful and test it on different browser where you're not logged into Padlet. So Padlet is heavily used in K-12, like a lot of this stuff, so a good thing to get inspiration is that you can Google Padlets used for virtual sessions, Padlets used for education, and you'll see a lot of stuff, Padlets do expire. So when you're looking at it, there might be a lot of broken links. So one strategy would be to look through Google images so you can kind of see a visual of what people have used and then again, get your own inspiration and make it on your own. Yeah, she said don't use it with middle school students because, again, like a lot of these tools I talked about, if it gets out of control, like if they start writing things like boobs in it, it's hard to, like, kind of keep it under control. So, you know, like usual, I feel like I'm running out of time. But polling is really nice to do to engage people beyond the chat. And so you can do things like live polling. So Mentimeter has no person limit, but you can only create two questions at a time and it does expire. So when you make it, it's default to expire after two days, you can change it to seven days. But again, make sure you test it the morning of your presentation. So we're going to quickly do one if you want. If you go to www.menti.com on your own device and then type in the code two six zero five eight seven. And you should see this. And then I'm going to show you how it looks on the background real fast. And then we'll kind of wrap this up, I promise. So I put that in the chat, so Mentimeter is actually the website where you log in as the presenter. So I'm logged in, so I can go to my- And then- y'all I can- you'll see the thing in real time, so here is the presentation. Right, and you can see, right, how they come in in real time, so this can be nicer if you're looking for these kind of bubble approaches than Padlet because it doesn't shift and disorient people in this way. It's anonymous. It's a good way to kind of gauge people's knowledge, that kind of thing. So. I know you said D&D gaming sessions. Yes, I hope this helps. OK, so you all saw it. So just to show you to, you know, again, to be sensitive of time, this is the present mode. And then when you're done, you can exit and just to show you, you can make two, only two in one presentation, so that is one of the limits, could create multiple ones that you kind of do throughout. We'll just have to use different codes. But here are your options if I make a new one. Right. You can do multiple choice where they give you a little demo, word cloud, open ended, which is what you just saw, scale's I do this a lot of times to gauge knowledge. Right. Like, how experienced do you feel you are like this on a scale of one to five, one being low, five being high or whatever? Ranking, similar image choice and then a Q&A, which is more like a, you know, what is your opinion? And they give you a kind of description and at the bottom of every single one. So Mentimeter's for you to use. Again, it's not a UNCG supported poll, so use at your own risk. But again, it doesn't have audience limit. So it's good for conferences. So UNCG is currently running a pilot of Poll Everywhere. So if you're interested, you can email me if you in touch with learning technologies, but that connects to Google Slides and Canvas through this pilot, so it might be a good time to test that out. So there's lots of other polling tools that's linked here, so some other ones are like Socrative. I talked about Google forums. We went over Mentimeter and poll everywhere. But if you want to check out more, you can do that and they change quickly. But the big thing is always to make sure you check the settings, expiration dates, audience limits and things like that. So UNCG has a thing called Go Links. It's- if you just go to golinks.uncg.edu it's linked here, you can create basically tiny URLs when you log in. So not only do they create these kind of short links to your so- maybe the Google doc that you've made, the Google Slide you've made, the spreadsheet that you've made, they also show you how much they're being hit. So if it's a conference presentation, this can be really nice because you can kind of get an idea. People are engaging with your stuff enough. Maybe you're into Twitter or things like that. You can see like, you know, things have made sense or what the most things are used. That's my NCDOCKS profile. Look at that. And you're here. I think so. I can see, like, people are actually using Go Links to my NCDOCKS profile and really hitting it up. So it's nice. And again, it can be really nice if you're doing group work with Google Docs or with the stuff because you could say, you know, go.uncg.edu/lib group one, lib group two, that kind of thing and keep it organized and easily drop, you can easily drop them in the chat to get people to engage with it. So I don't think I have time, but you all have the link to this. But the last part of the like, you know, practice of active learning is reflect. So polling is great for assessment. Here's an example of a quick Google forum I dropped for a webinar I did for public health. Right where I'm see, I'm having them name a library database, provide a permalink. I usually also have them say: what's something you learned from the session, what something you wish was covered more from this session. You can see then you can also use this is like formative assessment, right. Or a pre-test post-test. Right. You can have one of the beginning, see how they do and then create a separate one for the end and see if they learn things. So assessment. Here's the LibGuide for assessment here at UNCG. But really, a lot of the stuff you do in your, like, face to face instruction or for a conference could be used, again, as long as you drop it in the chat, make sure you're sharing it properly. You test it ahead of time if you want to use it for formative assessment. Again, most of those polling forms that I showed you, Qualtrics, Google Forms, has an option where you can show results as they come in. And then lastly, if you want to learn more about this, there is a link to a full PowerPoint I did for project outcomes on online learning and assessment them. Wow. Six minutes left. We did it, guys. OK, are there any questions, concerns? I'm sorry for my children. Doing my best. I don't think I've seen any questions come up, but if anyone has any questions, this is a great time, Sam. One thing I put in the chat was that if people were interested in a full session on an interactive tools, like some of the ones you talked about today, that we could certainly make that happen. So we can- oh look at all this nice love in the chat. So is everyone ready for the recording? I also I mean, I'm glad I got to test out breakout rooms, but a lot of times I don't want to do it with students because it's now in COVID-19, they're like- they're exhausted. They're like doing five things at once. So mostly for my class, I'm teaching right now for LIS, I mostly have been doing Google Forms and Google Docs as my engagement activities and because they can access it on their phones. So that's been the stretch I've taken. But I think, again, writing groups, virtual writing groups have been using breakout rooms a lot. It can be great again for a small group that, you know, they like are going to be able to handle it. Like it was great to test with you all today and, you know, so I would recommend it again. It can be good for like I think like SCUA has a workshop coming up, a retreat. It can be good for retreats, right, department retreats we might have to be doing virtually for a while. So, yeah, it can be a great way to do group work. I'm glad we got to play with it. I think it works better in Zoom than WebEx, too, if anyone felt scarred from their WebEx experiences. I agree it's much smoother in Zoom than it than it is in WebEx, so I like these in breakout rooms better. So for the recording I just want to share that. Sam got a lot of love in the chat. She was identified as awesome. Her slides are beautiful. Her children are great. And Anne appreciates that your children were involved. I think that's important. Yeah, I'm pretty sure the fact that May was involved means Mae did not nap today, my two year old, so thoughts and prayers for me this afternoon. Awesome. Yeah, I will. I'll tell Rose you said hi. Yes. Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and stop our recording now because I am feeling like people don't have questions.

to panel I like it so - - panel then I go to the tweak I go to extension - to panel this is the first extension so I can't put it left I can't put it bottom and I can't put it top all right so I put it top as a top bar then in the stylus I'd make it 32 I can make it bigger and I can take it make a smaller but 32 is best then here I can enable or disable then throught the transparency I can enable the same locus change so and I make that fantasy and 100% non transparency to make it solve it okay then I go to the behavior I disable this disable all these things I go to action do nothing do nothing and disabled I go to fine-tune and disable animation and Ament animate this year okay I close it so I have now the top part now I need the left bar where is my application must be sure so I go to this - to this extension - the dog and I install it so look now we go to tweak close it again week so we have extension - the dock so I disable intelligent height:auto hide and I check this panel not extended to see clean it I enable this okay then I go to lunch hour and I uncheck the animate and I checked move the application up so the application should be up I go to behavior and I choose you minimize so when I press this this it will be minimized okay I go to appearance I check this to shrink the - aunt I choose here dot I enable this and I choose the kana the the color black select black anti-jewish here fixed and I make the opacity 100% opacity and here I choose force straight corner and I close it so now let's see we have the traditional unix-like user interface in the top we have the the sound the microphone the network the Bluetooth the battery and the user account the calendar the language and this accessibility we didn't finish it now we go again to the extensions like gnome extensions let's look what extensions I prefer so I want to disable the hot corner this hot corner I don't like it when I hover the pointer and the top left that will make like that show overview I don't like so I disable it press Enter another extension remove accessibility I want to remove this guy okay it's removed remove drop-down arrows look this annoying arrows we want to remove them remove and there is no arrows now the input I want option in the input sounds there is no more input so I want to install the input and here we have the inputs look so from here we can control the system the system input to my focus no no no no the Bluetooth connection go to the quick connection option for example of you make the Logitech so here you find many many option so yes I installed a new Inc tweak removal driver so for example if we put the USB it's much be sure here it is good installed the Yulin chart you'll ensures good application so for example I press control space and this is the UN job and I can customize it lunch at login and shortcut so here I can't search my system okay what's next okay now I know Newt Newt NEFT and that's all so now we finish the Chrome extension customization next step we'll go to the setting and we customize the settings we type here setting we go to the setting so the background here I prefer these pictures the mountains pictures on the lockscreen I prefer solid color and then the lock screen so this my lock screen notification by this arrow all notification search I disable at all universal access the crowd saw the crosser sighs I make it medium online account privacy I disable this sound I go sound and effect for example before so some unaffected look I disable this so there's no such effect when I first when I rise the sound or minimize the sound power I give it like that then here let's finish so this is the first customization now I got to tweak twist in a twist general I disable animation and the appearance I choose purpose - tell purpose icon ok extension now we have this extension let's go again tweak and look we have only these extensions before by default when we install Debian it's come with 16 or 20 extension now we have minimum extension only the extension that they use a like that has to be installed and the otherwise we delete it keyboard and mouse we choose the area which was this sewing when we type the middle that will be passed startup application only this will be subtle window title 1 so we need minimize maximize and minimize so check check this workplace I choose one so there's no what case you or you can't make it like a default so I will see to work this but for me I prefer this so now we finish with the tweak tool which will be there Debian now in Debian sometime we we face problem in the Bluetooth and in the Wi-Fi connection disconnection connection disconnection Bluetooth and Wi-Fi so I have some some code also I put it for you so we go to file my file my treat I so we copy this here and the terminal will copy this then we copy this connection we remove everything from default Wi-Fi Power Save and you copy this and we save it we close it ok then you copy this and you open the terminal and you paste it here and that's all you disable so now the connection it has to be stable stable connection another thing I prefer to modify the FASTA so I go also I will show to you now swap and I copy this comment also I put it for you in the description below open the terminal test the command your password no sorry you can't copy it copy it copy this command past a password password and here here you're right no time regula okay look without space before the error you write this no time trakula than the earth then you save and you close okay now we're done another thing I prefer to install another package manager I prefer to install flat pack so I can get the latest and the greatest some software for example I prefer I instead use the clips and the visual studio from flat pack because they are later series liberal office from fatback so I installed flat back and we go to the chromium and you type Debian light but inter and you go to the flat pack and you follow these steps so you can install flat back after their start you got your stove you know installed and you can see for example here says flat for the shortcut flat for audacity flat hope ok Libre Office for example Libre Office is important this Deborah office is installed as plateau or flat back okay now when you install a black pack how to update the application in a flat pack simply you open the terminal on you you type sudo lab but update and it's update to the backpack - VV and update so now all your fat but let's have the latest and the greatest in Debian because Debian state will come with all up application so here you can get the latest and the greatest application okay so now we're done with this guy let's check if our kernel as I show you in the video for the previous video of this is upgraded so use new name or enter and we have the greatest karma so all the newest driver now we can get it let's see sudo must be so we have Debian you know linear is 10 booster the name under code stand with the latest kernel and we make the modification and we make it when you make it de plotted so now it's very very fast that the end and very very stable with the newest and safest software because being current some time to be important now I go to tweak in the appearance I choose a Twitter dark theme dark theme and this I keep it as default and I installed happiest alternate stock purpose in the way we go to the browser Chrome your browser mean it because we got poppy poppy rose I can team we got the github it is open source and we choose Debian and riveting and we copy paste these commands in the terminal and we can install the purpose so the icon it will be like that look as nice is better than the gnome icon so now another customization here by enable butter the percentage to check my battery percentage in the top so I have six forty six percent I enable this to see the weekday and I enable this to see the date okay this really talked about it we talked about it now it's fast like health debian now is fast like hell and that's what I like and this is the vs code and the latest one about which is the latest one chrome bla bla bla Linux 5.4 on the Virgin is 1.44 it is racist okay close it now how I customize my shortcut I go to setting' then here I have type keyboard so here i type super geek and I said so when I press you to pursue party I go to the desktop the super-g I go to the desktop then here i type super set so when I type super set it show my application all application ok here I type ctrl Q so when I press ctrl Q it will be close the windows then here let me remove it here I have to modify some shortcut key so here I want to wanted to make shortcut key for the terminal so I press T as a terminal and I hear the command no - no on the shortcut key Alt key okay so on I press Alt key the terminal will be open another I want to create a shortcut key for the reboot here I type our capital the name and the comma this 10 K 12 3 2 and the shortcut key ctrl alt are I choose control of our so to be for the reboot now I want to create shortcut key for the shutdown as I call it s capital s an sis Tim key to power off and the shortcut key ctrl alt s so I modify this shortcut key I have another shortcut here it's the vibration so I forget the comma so I go to file then I got short cut key and this so here shortcut key for logout let's go down past it here I passed it here and the shortcut key will be ctrl alt o for the load-out and the shortcut key for hybrids ok we go to the keyboard we add passed it here pass it here and the shortcut key will be ctrl alt H so now we have complete shortcut key shortcut key for open a new document so did it do you did ctrl alt G ok so control algae look it's open with the shortcut key we are a new document you can make shortcut key for example for chromium chromium ctrl alt be that quality so when you press control alt be chromium will be open and us so now we're done with the shortcut key another application I prefer I prefer the rest'll is like windows taskbar so I installed I stopped pseudo up install I stopped control in Turkey now I stopped in stop now I ran I stopped I stopped and I see my system resource and extract sized no another application I will prefer the new fridge so it's like general information about your Linux system so pseudo install new write new which is the system of formation think about if for 74 and for the kernel that we updated and the package we have 1630 package and 31 package for flat pack installed under bash is 4.03 under the resolution Legno and the shell under theme start purpose - ignore terminal until i7 core for Intel HD graphics blah blah blah and 32 be a gigabyte of rock this is the general information we have okay because the terminal what's next I want to show you for the power management for management we go to GLP touch alt and install TLT you go here and you go to Debian as we I saw you in the previous video how to enable and non the free software in your repo so when you enable it you go here and you choose booster pack ports and you installed terminal you copy this faster than the terminal no sorry you have to you have to be not as a user as the root so sudo is I test it okay now the TLP is in stop the LP type start now the TLP is a stop now TLP - that that's the stuff look your stat so these are the stuff some modification to improve the power management and to improve the photo link so for example I want to make your mind a nursery here look my configuration so battery one because I have think about I think about I have to battery as I told him the external under internal matter so battery so let's see batteries you the charge start at 80% and and at 90% why this important this is Patricia one minute battery battery 1 the charge start at 80% and and at 90% why I do this for example if I put the the cha the laptop on charge and for example I forget it so it will be not damaged my battery because stop at 90 okay it will be like a desktop otherwise if I put hundred percent it will be damaged if it is hundred percent and this hundred percent it will be damaged the battery okay so how I modify this simply I go to the manual of the GOP configuration maybe configuration yes um I choose this comma I copy it PTC default TLP and they go to my terminal I go to my terminal and I write sudo she did and that class the comma okay no no no no no no exit why it's not work because I part the command as a root I have to pass it as a user so sudo GE did and that was the command no it's not what why what a mistake right et Cie default GOP there is a mistake there's some stage yeah so you copy this comment it is c jl p dot config sudo GE did ET c KL p dot config okay here you press control f and you type back - battery - Rick okay and you go down down down down down yeah here you see here a stark charge battery 1:8 you remove the comment and come at this start an uncommon stop and you put 89 because I have to battery if you have only one battery you comment all you on you cook your uncomment this and you do you make the start at 80% and end at 90% if you are if you have think but like me your uncomment this to comment ok & kammath & kammath & kammath & kammath and you stop 8989 okay after you finish the modification of this code you make save close and here and there and the turmoil you write you type sudo CLP start so to bear start until it's work fine fantastic ok look how fast now it was this we cross this so let's see I will put for you the comments now we make this and we go to stop so in the store now we have the package management which we install it which is come by default from the Debian package management and we have the flat pack which allow us to install the latest and the greatest software so it is good idea it is very very very perfect a very fantastic idea that we have a flat pack and we have the dead end but in a start in Debian and we have the newest and the latest kernel so these are my application that I installed or it's not public lips look 22 March 22 the newest application okay close this okay a launch and they have the newest one we closed it we closed okay now we go to Liberal office and we have the newest one look at the version about this the newest one six for 3.2 United States of America copyright 2009 2020 this is the latest phone next video I show you how to customize the Libre Office and then how to make it look like the window Microsoft Office okay guys in the end of this video I hope you will learn something and as I always say stay safe and see you soon

Past and future trends of water consumption in Egypt
For thousands of years, the Nile has provided bountiful gifts to the people who make their home around its banks, offering food, a means of transport, irrigation, and fertile soil. But there is a limit to how much the Nile can give. Already in the 1970s, Egypt began fully utilizing the available resources of the Nile. Any additional demand has been met virtually, through imports of food. Now, research suggests that within the next decade, Egypt is poised to import as much “virtual water” as it receives from the Nile. In a new study from MIT, researchers compiled water and crop data for Egypt spanning the past 60 years. That gave them one of the most detailed looks at modern water use ever produced for the country, and helped them understand Egypt’s trade in “virtual water”. Virtual water refers to the hidden flow of water in food and commodities. For example, it takes about 1100 tons of water to produce one ton of maize in Egypt. So importing one ton of maize is like injecting 1100 tons of water into the system. For years now, Egypt has been steadily increasing its importation of virtual water through crops like wheat and maize to satisfy its growing population. Other ways the country has managed water supply and demand include the construction of the High Aswan Dam, improving crop yields, expanding water reuse, and reducing population growth. The problem is that at the current pace of population and economic growth, by the year 2030, the amount of virtual water Egypt imports will surpass the amount of real water the Nile can possibly supply, nearly 62 cubic kilometers. Egypt could be forced to look to the market instead of its own resources to meet demand. That’s a strong signal that current measures for managing water use must be intensified or revamped if Egypt is to have a sustainable water supply for the coming generations. One solution could be to leverage the country’s high agricultural yields and expand their share of natural water resources by exporting high-value, high-water-efficiency crops, like fruits and vegetables, and continuing to import low-value, low-efficiency groups, like grains. Other proposed solutions include pricing water to reflect scarcity, improving irrigation efficiency, adopting new cropping patterns, and curbing population growth. To be sure, no single solution is likely to compensate for all additional needs the country will encounter in the coming decades. A combination of adaptations is necessary to enable continued growth and prosperity with more careful management of natural resources. The key is change. If changes aren’t made, Egypt could soon serve as an ecological cautionary tale to other water-scarce nations—bringing into question the historical depiction of the region as “the gift of the Nile.”

A Golden Wake: Chapter 1| Meet Alfie Realtor Savant
greetings and applesauce Jensen Dame's today on overanalyze adventures we're gonna talk about a man isn't a four-flusher but he still as a Gasper smokin did we I can't do this yeah i cant pretend like I know any 1920 slang or anyway let's restart ladies and gentleman and everybody between IM some guy and welcome to overanalyze adventures imma gonna start a new series a series about what is arguably one of my favorite games of last year and that's Thunder Slavs and badger dies a gold and wake made by francisco gonzalez who now works for wagon is currently working on something that there's no doubt amazing but i digress I feel like before I get started on this series I should point out and make it very clear or what overanalyze adventure is about overanalyze adventures is all about taking the piss out of the things that love let's adventure games now wanna stress that a golden link is a damn fine game and arguably one of the best adventure games that came out last year but that's how I won't stop me from taking a piss out of folks because if you love something he have to degrade it at least that's what my father told me oh well well yeah but gave no personal now so let's get started on the over analysis of a gold and wake yes let my mouse essentially caressed that font mean it's good and stir in your game this is undeniably one of the cool features about a golden wake the game actually depicts real live people who lived I'd have Wikipedia pages about them so it's pretty damn cool there Francisco Gonzales put all this effort into making his game now naturally this isn't how they were in real life unless mr. Gonzales is actually a time traveler and if he is why is he wasting his potential on making old-school adventure games seems like he should kill Hitler or something well Alfie old boy looks like it's another day another dollar so here's our hero Alfred banks and no it's at the same Alfred as in the Batman series although that would be pretty damn cool hell in fact you could pretend that this is Alfred during his formative pre Batman years but that's a different game hey this is Alfred banks where Alfie banks he sells houses and works with two jackasses let's meet them morning fellas what's the good word good morning banks morning banks horsefeathers why is it so hot in here gosh language Alfie Morris apparently has a chill he said the heating on as high as it goes this morning Suggs and I had to prop the door open so we didn't sweat to death we must be raking in a fair amount this month if he can afford to do that and I can afford to skip over most of this scene these two characters are well they seem like something of a pulp novel one seems like a private dick the other seems like a henchman for Batman villain and all you really need to know about them is that they're jealous of Alfea because alfie is a savant when it comes to real estate he is out selling these two fools and fact doesn't even seem like this firm even needs anyone besides Alfie cuz that's how good he is at selling houses but nevertheless after Alfie gets done talking to his two co-workers he meets with his boss good morning Evan sugg said you wanted to see me have a seat Elfie this doesn't seem like a conversation that's going to be pleasant I'm afraid it isn't you know I'm not the type to beat around the bush so here's the long and the short of it we're not doing well sales are minimal and the competition is popping up all over town like a bad rash I hate to do it but we're going to have to let someone go I see who did you have in mind that's mainly why I asked to see you Alfie you have more contact with subs and Murphy so I think this decision should be yours ah well I'm kind of on the spot here but oh boy it sounds to me like elfies boss is scared of confrontation or lacks a backbone but that doesn't really matter what matters is were faced with a choice and a pretty damn serious one for so early on the game one of two characters that we've just met and know nothing about other than they can suck at telling real estate are gonna be fired and it's our responsibility to choose who sounds pretty cool I think Murphy should be the one let go he means well and so does this game your choice whether it's soldier Murphy doesn't have any effect on the story what happens happens regardless of your choice so it begs the question do you actually have a choice when the outcome rigo's of your choice has already been predetermined they ass a philosophy there and the son of a [ __ ] says clear as day he means well but doesn't perform as well as he could can you believe it I'd be performing three times as well of golden boy didn't take all the good leads first I mean just because he's Hiram son doesn't entitle him to quiet somebody's coming now it's not particularly clear Alfie overheard this conversation or if he's oblivious to this and this is just something us the player the viewer we're privy to but nevertheless you think maybe we could react on this knowledge now we're not going to Alfea screwed he's made enemies of his only coworkers well at least the boss still trusts him no thank you very much mr. conscious a pleasure doing business with you hmm five sales in 30 minutes I think that might be a new record now Alfie when you say it out loud like that in front of your other co-workers who are struggling it does make you seem the kind of a dick Alfie can you come here a moment what is it Evan I'm running late for the weekly shareholders meeting could you lock up my office for me of course here's the key I'll be back shortly I don't believe this man's in much of a hurry I just think he's pretty damned lazy cuz come on think about it and the time it took him to tell Alfie to lock up after him he could have done it himself The Doors right there behind him it just seems like those guys are lazy bastard look it even take a second to lock that door in fact I'm going on to put the door longer than it takes to lock the door look I even timed it so in case you can't tell Alfie's being set up he must be a nice guy and his co-workers must know it because one of them is faking breaking a light bulb now if it comes in and does you know the white knight thing it helps him out while the other guy sets him up for when the boss comes back which is now I'm back Alvey got my key yes Evan it's right hmm odd I thought I'd put it my other pocket anyway here you are Alfie yes where are tomorrow's leads I beg your pardon the leads for tomorrow the ones that were on my desk they're no longer on my desk where have they gone look I'll get subs and Murphy together and we'll look for them or maybe you could just look under banks his hat mr. Morris ah there underneath Alfie's hat again if you chose the other guy you get a slightly different version of events but I'm not even going to what happens because all we need to know is Alfie gets fired oh it seems kind of weird to me in all honesty after all Alfie's a star salesman but whatever his boss believes in honor and all that I guess or maybe he just doesn't like Alfie maybe he's jelly of Alfie's mad dope sales skills y'all gotta becoming a southern rapper that's good when we Ralphie's fired but for now I think you should take an indefinite leave of absence fine i see how it is well you know what nother thing about perhaps Morris is just under the weather maybe he has a flu and it's clouding his judgment because why else would he fire his superstar salesman yeah that has to be after all earlier on the game it was explained that Moore's crank the heat because he had the chills so that's an obvious flu-like symptom so yeah he's just sick and he's not thinking very clearly right now so you know at Alfea should just hang out not do anything rash like moved to Miami and just wait for Morris to call him back and apologize so yeah that that's a reasonable thing to do I guess I'll see you fellas around hey no hard feelings banks here you go see ain't even wouldn't hey taking an early lunch mr. banks no I sure just taking an early lunch well if you need anything to read while you eat I still got plenty of papers left oh yeah that's some sexy signposting right there ladies and gentlemen and everybody between this game is good for that you see a golden wake likes to tell you and very nonchalant and subtle ways what you need to do naturally we need to buy a paper and when we read the paper we uncover some very interesting news hmm it's this Marik making waves in Florida Miami a I've always heard that place was nothing more than glorified swampland remember I said Alfie should just sit around and not do anything rash well that's not Alfie's game but I'll be damned if I'm just gonna roll over and freeze to death up here when I'm finished down there the name banks will finally mean something again so mr. Merrick let's just see what you've got to offer so because he saw into the paper Alfie's going down to Miami seems a bit rash to me you know it could have looked for another job in New York after all his boss said there's a bunch of other firms popping a buddy we have to find a reason get healthy down to Miami so alpha gives em to Miami and meets a lovely man at the train station hello Miami healthy banks has a bra Oh horsefeathers this humidity is something else right I've got my luggage claim ticket now I just need to find this hotel belmont and hey there hello are you speaking to me sir you see anybody else around son come on over here and have a chat with old doc Dammers why don't you ah yes here is the first of the actual real people we meet that actually lived in Miami during this time dad Danvers was a real man and now he's really helping out Alfie by telling them what's up with coral gables all we need to know is that Marik's the man but he just don't let anyone meet with him no no no no you got to kind of prove your worth and right now Alfie just showed up so you don't go to the hotel and check in and all that and angle waltz upstairs and collect some vital items you know some typewriter ribbon a picture of your father and his bow bondage gear and a bit of salesman advice you know the basic necessities so from here Alfie makes his way to mr. marks office because Alfie's dead set on getting a job with him because he's read about him in the paper so that's enough motivation pardon me miss I'm terribly sorry sir but I'm just too busy for you right now perhaps you could come back another time ah yes the gatekeeper will now allow us to pass but fortunately she's struggling having to write out a bunch of letters by hand not that you'd care but I need to get these letters written and seeing as the weekly shipment of supplies has been delayed I'm forced to do them by hand and conveniently enough Alfie banks for really no apparent reason I likes to travel with typewriter ribbon anime views expecting to sell it at a substantial markup like you know what people used to do with blue jeans in France and the 70s but yeah I'm getting off topic here needless to say though Alfie gives her the typewriter ribbon and then would it be possible to make an appointment to see mr. Merrick certainly let me see our next available appointment is next November so Alfie's humble bribe of a typewriter ribbon just wasn't enough so now what's the poor man to do well turns out this lady has an idea for him if alpha goes down to the land option and makes a name for himself there perhaps Marik will see him but he's always looking for fresh talent come on folks it's a beautiful day to buy some land hey this scene looks mightily familiar yeah yeah I'm on to you mr. Gonzales I know you know Google foo yeah this really drives home the point that this game is based off a reality that mr. Gonzales is potentially a time traveler or someone who'd like to do due diligence begin now with a land auction and conveniently enough mr. Dammers old Daka Bailey likes Alfie and he tells him hey hey I know how to get in with marek cuz the old doc works from Eric so he tells Alfie that he has to help him sell some land to two groups of people which conveniently are two different puzzle varieties for us to tantalize our brains with see those two sets of stragglers over there separate from the crowd they're all about a hair's breadth away from buying but I just can't get them to bunch take your pick if you can convince either set to buy some houses I just might put in a good word for you back at the sales office so suppose I should talk about the puzzles briefly now the first puzzle involving the group of people is a sort of matching puzzle you see each group they had their own particular needs and there's houses that provide particular things so you have to think and figure out whose belongs with which house it's pretty damn nifty and it's also pretty unfortunate that this is the only time the game we get to see a puzzle like this though it's pretty cool and really fun you actually have to think about what people want and the other puzzle involves the loan guy who's all by himself and this puzzle is our first exposure to a pretty nifty system that this game has it's this weird sort of dialogue system that's a puzzle you see yes use your cellar intuition to get a feel for the guy and then you have to answer their questions based upon what your intuition says their characters like so you do actually have to do some thinking with each one of your dialogue choices to try to convince these people to do whatever you want them to do it's pretty damn nifty and it's one the few times that I've actually seen a dialogue system also work as a puzzle system so hats off to you mr. developer so do you assess a it really doesn't matter who you choose as long as you solve the puzzle and after Alfie successfully solves the puzzle old damages like yeah you did a damn fine job son and then you get the news that you can meet with Merrick so let's catch up with that yes he's expecting you mr. banks go ahead and knock on his door there I'll let you get back to your work thank you sir come in good afternoon mr. Merrick I'm Alfred banks you wanted to see me oh yes of course mr. banks please come in make yourself at home so now we get to meet mr. Merrick and yes he was a real man who did real things really during this time period I even found a photo of him and here it is yes again does a great job of capturing his likeness minus all that black and white thing but what can you do it really is a pleasure to finally meet you mr. Merrick like I said my name is Alfred banks and I know who you are mr. banks I was well aware of your father's work up north it seems apparent that you are eagerly following in his footsteps you've gotten my attention now let's see how serious you really are I see great potential in you but a good sales agent needs more than just talent in its ability and know how I've got those in spades I'm certainly confident I'll give you that in any case i have a few small setbacks which i need to deal with and i think they would serve as an excellent proving ground for you so Alfie boy must endear three trials in order to get a job with Merrick a very interesting endocet elise unique interview process by the same time to it just seems like Marik needs someone to take a fall for him in case there's any backlash you know plausible deniability because when you see what all Merrick wants Alfie to do it does strike me as a little bit Shady the first task that old Mary cast for alfie is pretty straightforward he has to convince a holdout to sell his land although merit goes about it in a kind of mobster sounding way it's a reasonable thing that a land developer would do but the second one hmm lets just hear what old Marik has to say for himself shall we I'd like you to head over to the miami herald building and see if you can befriend a reporter or two having a journalist in our corner would do wonders for our appetite now mayor cause it advertising I call a collusion in an ethics violation for any journalist come on what Marik's asking for here is not advertising you pay people to make advertisement for you what Merrick wants is reporters in his back pocket to write fluff pieces about his development that's pretty damn shady to say the least as is the final task for old Alfie and that's get back some plans that have been stolen do we actually know that these are stolen plans we only have Marik's word to take on this and considering he wants us to find Patsy's at the local paper it seems like ethics and integrity may not be top priorities and Mirax list but oh well Alvie be naive despite being from the major city goes about blindly with his duties from Eric yes may I help you well this hold out really looks like beaker to me you know the Muppet here's a picture of him yeah uncanny almost but nevertheless health is gonna put on his sweet sleazy salesman moves and try to get this guy and sport Muppet to sell his house good day to you sir my name is Alfred banks and whatever it is you're selling I'm not interested ah but i'm not here to sell you anything in fact quite the contrary oh I see Marik's sent you didn't he I well yes he did look you can go back and tell him exactly what I told all the others nothing doing I bought this land before he got his little vision and I intend to keep it I tried appeasing him by building my house to match his Mediterranean style but apparently even that wasn't good enough I did everything by the book filed all the proper paperwork you tell Merrick he'll get me off this land when I'm no longer drawing breath good day to you sir you know what you have to be sympathetic for this Muppet he did everything by the book does merit really need this land as this house really that essential to his overall vision I mean it's not really clear what Marik's gonna do with the land but I guess it doesn't matter because we're just trying to get a job with him so this guy's gotta go regardless of him kind of being in the right but ever less now if he just goes down to the Hall of Records and speaks to this greaser guy and then he finds out that may be so that paperwork for the house wasn't filed correctly hahaha we had them a technicality now folks so we go back to the house and then demand an inspection because apparently a proper one wasn't done and why this guy just lets Alfie into his house it doesn't matter what matters is folks we have a dirty rotten filthy hidden object game did play it makes sense I suppose in this context but it says easy as any hit an object thing try to find the objects that are hidden then what you do all that well let's just listen to the poor muppet try to plead his case so this is what it's come to I see how it is you come in here play in the White Knight but you're no better than any of the rest of them I did what I had to do to keep my land but I suppose that was all for naught fine I'll call up mr. Merrick and tell him he's won I hope you can live with yourself you snake I'm sure I'll manage have a nice afternoon sir so next an alphas hit list is going to the Miami Herald and finding a patsy may I have a moment you may I'm Alfred banks and I believe you have the advantage Marjory Stoneman Douglas and she was a real live breathing feeling do and human being she was a note of feminists and journalists who work in Miami during this time period also she worked as a controversial is fighting hard to protect the Everglades and to preserve the natural splendor of Florida hell the Florida Environmental Protection Agency's building is named after her and she received a great deal of awards both in her life and after death I would use a great lady all-around pleasure what is it you do around here miss Douglas I write articles conduct interviews and investigate stories mr. Merrick asked me to come here and inquire about possibly getting someone to do a bit of publicity for ah suddenly it all becomes let's get something straight right now I'm not some dumb Dora at anyone's beck and call if Marik wants a reporter in his pocket it'll have to be someone else I'm far too busy to find myself on a leash at some land developer and his cronies yeah she makes a good point but old healthy banks has not one to give up so eventually a deal is struck basically she'll help Marik if alpha can help her uncover some dirty politicians dirty laundry basically Alfie has to go down to the men's club and find out if this politician drinks because he's all pro prohibition yeah prohibition was a thing back then but it turns out it's not that easy to get into the club is can't waltz in there you have to join it and in order to join it alpha gonna need some help from mr. Merrick who helps him I mean for a man who supposedly booked up till November of next year Merrick doesn't seem to be doing much of anything but whatever I'm not a real estate mogul maybe he's round out what he's doing really the way wouldn't you get the necessary items you're able to go inside the club after bribing the maitre d or or whatever he is say friend you've really been a great help today I'd like to give you a little something for your trouble why thank you mr. banks ah well what do you know it seems the results of your evaluation are in and you've passed with flying colors welcome to the Miami men's club please feel free to use any of the club's amenities at your leisure and of course if there's anything I can do for you please let me know may I take your hat sir yes of course much appreciated well look at this boys it seems we've got a new member but where are my manners I'm Jeremiah miller county commissioner district 2 so yeah I'll feed you test the politician for a while and then he walks around and tries to talk to some of the other members and finds out one of them's pretty tanked in the corner and then he tells mr. Pro prohibition about it who's going to give that drunkard a piece of his mind Evans are you drunk Evans answer me good lord how much have you had you're a hazard what if I wanted to light a cigarette you're a disgrace to the good name of this club [ __ ] all that man had a family he is broken in half yeah um dudes knocked out cold and no one seems to care he must not have any friends in this club either way we now have what we need to give to miss Douglas who in turn will read the good press about the development and now al fetus has one more thing that he needs to do before he gets his sweet job with all the Merrick and it's a mild corporate espionage and stealing pardon me miss hmm what can I help you with sir oh wow I think there's something really wrong with her hands but anyway she lets you into the meeting with the real estate guy you go through a little bit of a Q&A with him and you realized so this guy seems like a really nice bang up dude who you're just gonna screw over because you're blindly trusted Mary I mean his operation is pretty damn shoddy I really doubt he stole anything I suspect he just has a really good idea and this dude just kind of bad a business cuz he's so nice Oh bless his heart we might as well be stealing from a blind man and in all honesty I don't know if the intent is to make alpha seem naive or to just kind of drive home the moral ambiguity about everything that Alf is doing is when you think about it everything Alfie's Dunn's been morally and ethically dubious he's not exactly taking the high road he's trying to cheat people and ruin their I was in the name of Marik it's pretty cool and unlike this moral ambiguity and also like this little safe puzzle here hey we swap off the plans and now we go back to American he'll be our best friend for life right Oh actually I where's getting a job with him a lot of work just to get a damn job hopefully he's paying us pretty damn good the stuff we went through me now that brilliant tense made a bunch of enemies actually politician that guy real estate dude hmm please have a seat there you are mr. Merrick I got your design plants back from Riley very impressive work banks did you get the job too I'm not quite sure about that sir well for the time being let's hope you didn't I don't want Riley stealing anything else for me I'll just get to it that I wish you the best of luck I believe that's everything taken care of mr. Merrick you know when you first walked through that door I had a feeling there was something special about you I'm glad to see my assumptions were well placed welcome aboard the golden galleon banks I think you're going to do wonders for us the golden galleon sir yes it's our new slogan Dammers came up with it follow the golden galleon to Coral Gables where your castles in Spain are made real it certainly has a ring to it that it does now that there's no time to waste I've got some big plans for the next few years and I'm going to need all the help I can get farmers and honky tonks that does it for part one of the overanalyze adventures for the golden lake video game haha thank you very much for your time gals and gems are you drunk if it's answer me good lord how much of you have your a hazard what if I wanted to light a cigarette you're the scripts for the good name of this club

Arkham Horror LCG Campaign Run Patrice Hathaway in Return to The Unspeakable Oath
hi this is jb from another lightsaber arkham welcome to another campaign playthrough with patrice hathaway and we are up to the unspeakable votes and i had only one experience to update my deck between scenarios so i opted to add three copies of open gate into the deck and took out both of the attested wheels and one copy of scrunching for supplies so i won't go into detail on how the deck looks but i will add the video add the link to the deck list into the video description if you're interested so first off we'll start by drawing the tarot cards so we will resolve one upward tarot card and two reverse tarot cards as we have the damned weakness still last scenario went pretty hurriedly so i'm just hoping to survive through this so i can continue the campaign with patrice if i end up staying behind in the asylum i think that is the end of this campaign run and i will play something else next time but we'll see how this goes so just a quick shuffle to the tarot deck so the upwards tarot card is uh the magician each investigator begins game with three additional resources so that's decent and the first uh downward so we are doing the balance plus uh damned reading so we get the tower add one random basic weakness to each investigator's deck remove them after the game ends so again that is a really nasty one and the last one is the emperor during the first strength test each investigator performs each round test they get minus one strength so that doesn't affect batteries that much but those are the tarot cards so we are ready to begin so let's get started [Music] okay and we are ready to see what weakness batteries gets for this scenario so this uh weakness will be removed after the scenario ends so hopefully we don't get anything bad this time either so uh i will redraw any cards that don't apply to this playthrough for example multiplayer cards or something like that so we pick one at random and well it is the unspeakable of blockers and we are playing a campaign so this applies so this is pretty bad for patrice because we are not keen on fighting anything but we will have to do with this this weakness for this scenario so we'll just quickly shuffle that into the deck we are starting from the western wing or the western patient wing in the asylum halls and there are some changes if you haven't played the return to we have a different um second act to the scenario because we have more conviction than doubt so we have to pick version 3 for that and that will change the scenario up a bit okay and we start here so this was randomly selected so shroud of two after you defeat the lunatic enemy at this location draw one card okay well doesn't help our situation at this point so we are ready to draw our opening hand one two three four five and weaknesses we don't need that we don't need those the raven is okay spectral razor not that much so we'll redraw five two three four five okay well we'll do with this at least we got one of the open gates so i think the first thing we do is to head up to the yard plant that there and continue from there so the plan is to play an open gate to the yard and then the basement hall or somewhere there so we can skip moving from the basement to the yard later on in the scenario so let's see oh yeah and we start with three additional resources so we have plenty of resources to go and play stuff so i think first thing is to move to the yard uh while you are investigating the yard it gets plus one shroud for each horror on you and it's been a while that i've played this scenario so i will just double check my campaign log if i had any any trauma because yeah no trauma so one clue here second action we will uh well we'll play open gate as a fast action then second action we'll play mysterious raven and we'll play patrice's violin that would be useful and we will discard the rest so i think we'll just discard this card [Music] to get one resource then i will go to upkeep i will discard will play the moonstone so a pretty good start we got a lot of assets into play right away and we can continue from there so this readys and we draw five more cards one two three four five uh we get the watcher from another dimension immediately but we got shrivellings sixth sense and other stuff so i think oh yeah we get a result so we can play uh six cents so we can investigate better so that is that round let's go to the next round we had a doom oh no not the resource but the doom encounter card for this round is it is the world's closing intestinal ball x x is the shroud value of your location if you fail when you must either take one arrow for each point you failed by or randomly one enemy from amongst the set of monster enemies and plays in the arc deck without looking at it we are testing let's see [Music] i think we'll commit this and test the route is only one here so we'll test [Music] five versus one [Music] oh yeah and because of the last scenario we have all of the special tokens in the back so one of each it is a skull skull is minus one if you fail you choose an enemy from amongst the set aside monster enemies and place it beneath the deck without looking at it so we succeed we pass the test and we can continue so first up we'll play sixth sense and [Music] we will investigate and i'm investigating uh with the sixth sense so four five verses oh yeah i was six versus the fastest so five versus one [Music] it is a minus two we pass we grab this clue so uh if there are no clues or they are take one damage remember that you incited the fight so we'll do that we'll take one damage and we'll mark that we have done this deed here for later reference [Music] okay so play investigate last action i don't like to have the watcher in my hand clogging my hand up so i will uh you may fight and evade the enemy while it is in your hand as we there at the allocation if you succeed discard this from your hand if you fail spawn and engage with you so we have last chance so we could we are yeah tough choice i will discard prevailing with the violin to draw a card doesn't help [Music] we have plus one two uh agility so last action i will evade the voucher so we are testing three against five i'm committing the last chance so i have one card so this gives plus four so we are seven versus five and it is a skull so we succeed and this is discarded right there and that is all we can do we go to upkeep we discard our hand one two three four five we get uh mr oil that's good i think and [Music] yeah the rest is okay but not really great but that is that round we also get one resource let's go to the next round we had a doom the agenda advances so the patients shuffle the encounter discard pile and each of the set aside lunatic enemies into the copper wreck the lead investigator must run will choose an enemy from the set aside monster enemies and places without looking at it so here we have the lunatics and let's get the discord coil so we will shuffle these into the encounter deck [Music] oh yeah the violin has ready [Music] so we actually don't have any weaknesses in our deck at the moment because oh yeah we have the bloodlust and speak up a lot blood lust because we drew an extra about this scenario so i was thinking i'm safe to go through my deck without getting any weaknesses but i forgot about that one okay and then we have to shuffle one of the set aside monster enemies at random to beneath the act deck without looking then we also get an encounter card and it is walls closing in we'll just test it we are uh five versus one so no we won't commit anything it is a minus one nothing happens and uh let's start our turn nothing to do here so we'll move do we want to play anything we don't have any resources unfortunately so mr oil won't be played okay so i think we're just going to investigate so move move to the mess hall [Music] there are two clues here post after you successfully investigate the misfolds loose and discard one card that doesn't bother us at all last action we are investigating with sixth sense and let's commit unexpected courage because we really don't want to draw more cards as our last action we are investigating seven verses to it is a minus one so we grab one clue next year we can get one more and advance so that was our last action we have to discard the rest of our hand draw a new hand one two three four five we get the mists of relay cornered look what i found got an old key ring and we gain a resource so that is that uh we'll actually we would have used the violin to get the resource from one of our cars that we couldn't use so that is that round let's go to the next round we had a doom one of seven then counter card for this round these uh visions in your mind uh secretly add this card to your hand force when you would when your turn ends if you did not perform at least one draw action during your turn discard this card from your hand and take one uh direct damage and direct horror so i think we are doing that just to get rid of the card okay let's see first action i will definitely play cornered then i will investigate using the sixth sense i'll actually use violin discard i'll discard the old key ring to get a resource and for my second action i'll play the mist of there [Music] so we're pretty much set up as best we can and last action we will investigate i'll commit the gods so um we are testing uh seven versus two it is a minus one so we succeed uh we draw a card doesn't really matter actually that's a bad thing but we get the the clue so we can spend all the clues to advance so key to the basement uh the investigators must decide choose one uh any investigator test uh strength four or agility four or intellect four so let's see what so we i'm committing both of these tests to the uh intellect test so i'm testing six versus four and actually let's uh discard one to the corner uh getting agility and this is agility so we'll test the agility version so we are three four five six seven versus four so a bit better odds [Music] and it is a minus four then i guess we'll test intellect 2 versus 4 we don't have any cards to commit it is an elder sign so it's a plus one so still not enough uh after this test ends i'll shuffle everything except the watcher into my deck uh if only i could use the corner to pass this uh by this current divisions in your mind but no go okay last try uh well we are testing uh one of those three it is an um these are zero but it doesn't help so you knock uh the orderly over and grab the keys remember that you took the keys by horse advanced 2a so we had to take the keys by force now [Music] ignore the text on the unrevealed side of asylum locations objective find the patient find the location with daniel chesterfield you will be instructed to when to advance so these locations become available now because the reason we couldn't move is that the read that the doors are locked but now we have the keys so uh we didn't draw any cards so we discard this we gain one damage and one horror so that turn went completely poorly with your own hand one two three four five weaknesses old keyring manual dexterity moonstone mysterious raven and the last chance and uh yeah this goes here and we gain a resource so that is that round this also already is let's go to the next round we had another doom uh two of seven encounter card for this turn is dance of the yellow king uh this can search we don't have any lunatics in play we get a maggot swarm so mega swarms location gets clustered while maggot swarm is at the location with no clues against hunter okay do we have anything to kill it oh spectral razor would have been really nice in this situation but it is what it is so i think we'll start by evading this enemy and if you succeed after evading the social enemy you may move to a connecting location and we'll use a manual dexterity well we are testing this willpower we haven't we don't have any real power icons and last chances so we'll go with five versus three actually i think we can discard the moonstone with its corner to go seven versus three it is a plus one so this enemy is sedated and it is at that location [Music] and we get to move over here so choose route one clue if there are no pools on the kitchen test um oh yeah i think i forgot to use an action there so i might have messed up there but i'll correct it by using two here for example [Music] or something um let's change the bit i used the raven uh here so i got the clue without investigating and without using any action so i had an action to do the ability there okay so two clues here so um no one clue one clue here okay so investigating i think i will actually i'll play the raven and then i'll investigate and using sixth sense we'll investigate this as zero we'll grab the two and we'll do the action next round so these are discarded this red is it has hunter because there are no clues on this location then we get five cards one two three four five mr doyle's rebellion times two open gate guts well the open gate is a bit early for our liking but it is what it is well we can play it here which will save us couple of moves maybe um so that is that round we'll also get sauce let's go to the next round we add a doom three of seven encounter card is was closing in through this two will commit guts to the test uh we are seven versus two it is an elder sign so we pass uh we draw a card then we will uh all these back into our deck so we are getting quite lucky with the elder signs so our deck is replenished with all the good cars i have i think okay so we passed this uh first action we'll do the action here so we set fire to the kitchen second action we'll move here last action we will evade the maggot swarm and i will evade using mr fuller and boosting with me to store and using the old keyring with cornered the corner gives us plus two install gives us plus one um let's count [Music] so we are four five six seven 5 6 7 8 3 this is called soviet pass and those maggots are evaded and we get to move over here and last action well that was our last action [Music] no point in playing the open gates so we'll just have to discard it so that was that uh that round we discard our cards ready up one two three four five oh no other open gate ready read the signs from the flame perception cornered an unexpected courage and we gain a resource so that is that round let's go to the next round we had a doom four of seven and counter card these visions in your mind when you your turn ends if you did not perform at least one move action during your turn discard this card from your hand and take one direct damage and one direct4 so we are moving so that will stick in our hand for a while um so first action we'll move to here [Music] then we'll move to here first action we'll take one uh or grab this glue oh yeah after the basement hole if you will put just four set aside patient confinement locations play so [Music] just place them over here some connections [Music] and so move move fast action and well there's pretty much nothing to do except move to one of these so we'll start from here so test will power x where x is the amount of horror on you if you succeed you recognize the room remember that you recall the way out one clue here so we'll do that next round and we have to move in here and that is all we can do uh this keeps in stays in our hand one we discard all of these now we draw one two three four cards read the signs swinging it perception last chance okay and he's ready uh this reddit actually last round so this thoughts aren't uh and we gain a resource we already do i think we did [Music] i think yeah so that was that round let's go to the next round we add a doom five of seven and counter card is a straight jacket okay so this comes into play and discards the violin and we don't have any body slots so this is just here instead of a body slot item and that is the encounter or the middle space so first action we'll do the willpower test here and i'll use or i'll discard being it with corners so we are testing seven verses two [Music] zero um either randomly choose an enemy martial monster set of sight monster i mean you can place it beneath the arctic or this test for my little tail so we'll do that so we'll place one from here at random we need to act deck okay and we have done this trial also we'll move and we'll move again we'll go here so test strength to to release the patient here from his bones if you succeed he hulls like a wolf and tears off through the basement remember that you release the dangerous patient and there's one clue here and we have to spend one clue to enter here okay well we discard our hand uh we this hands here ready one two three four cards get six cents winging its unexpected carriage and all keyring and we gain a resource so that is that round let's go to the next round we are gonna add another doom so six of seven and counterparties a young psychopath after young psychopath engages you you must either take one horror or young psychopath gets plus three fight until the end of the investigation phase so that enemy engages us [Music] and we will just let's see how do we want to do this [Music] well um we will just debate i will discard uh we need for cornered and use unexpected courage we are using patrice's own agility and optimists for this division so we are well i think this is overkill so we are up by two so five versus three and call this is the amount of horror so we just succeed so [Music] this enemy is evaded stays here second action we will investigate or [Music] i'll do the strength check here so i'll discard one card with cornered and used unexpected courage so mr prelay no uh sixth sense so we are testing five six seven eight nine against oh i mean two i just want one two three four five versus two it is another minus two so we passed so we have released the dangerous patient so we have done four tasks and i think if i remember correctly that is enough last action we really need a call so i'll discard this corner so we're testing seven versus five to investigate this and it is an elder zone again so we will shuffle our discord back uh we need to evade this enemy next round but please release and the storm is also coming we might well yeah we'll see so we got this clue okay so we didn't move so this goes away we get one damage [Music] uh we draw cars one two three four five this radius engages us again this moves here and we get a resource also so that is that round let's go to the next round we add another doom so this actually advances so let's see uh the lead investigator must randomly choose an enemy amongst the settles at monster enemies and shuffle it into the encounter deck without looking at it if conscience domain is not listed under erp slaves in cersei collection for constance domain a little too so sample and spawner and garden so constance germain spawns at the garden [Music] then we'll just grab one and that is it so this is chocolate into the encounter deck [Music] then we get an encounter card and it is a maniac so after maniac it gets a few take one damage and deal maniac one damage uh we are pretty swarm with enemies at the moment but we'll see what we can do okay first action we will evade [Music] no we'll evade without using the mists of relay the maniac and i will use cornered so five verse five versus one zero maniac is evaded second action we'll uh use the misstep relay to invade the second so we are five versus three i'll use this no we'll just got [Music] to debate uh commit god so we are seven verses 3 [Music] 0 and we get to move this engages us both of these are evaded and stay behind and we'll evade again with the mists and i'll use this uh commit this bitcoin oh yeah we drew a card yeah well it is what it is and we'll evade seven let's go to nine versus three it is a minus one so we succeed and we get to move again and we find the right one here [Music] and this stays here [Music] and so after patient confinement is revealed advanced f2b [Music] okay sponsorship site host of insanity at patient confinement daniel cell shuffle then counter discard pile and each enemy lead the arctic counter deck so all of these get shuffled in [Music] yeah these are all and now we have like three monsters here which is not that good but it could be worse i've had situations where all of these monsters have been shuffled in because people have been drawing the elder thing token all the time okay and we spawned the host of insanity here and this is engaged with us over here and [Music] oh yeah i think this has haunted once already okay so that was our turn we uh this attacks us for one damage and one for okay we have three of each health or sanity remaining so that is the enemy pace we got upkeep discard our hand one two three four five okay [Music] that's good not looking good and oh yeah this hunt's here this is ready we can get a resource also so that is that round let's go to the next round so we are getting pretty clutch here so we have eight doom threshold so one of eight encounter card is praying by aki okay so that engages us oh dear [Music] well well well um let's evade okay so while engage with an investigator with the remaining sending tier 4 of your swap so it is ebay 2 so that actually helps we are evading that one i'll discard the mysterious raven for cornered so evading five versus two minus one it is evaded i'll evade the host of sanity next i'll commit is revealing five versus four so we need to get lucky here -1 evaded last action we'll have to move over here so this engages us and that is our turn don't get confused with those okay [Music] constance hans here you really need to find a open gate somewhere okay uh this hits us for one horror [Music] and we discard our hand we draw one two three four and we get the open gate so we might just put a win here if we survive and is ready and we get a resource so that is that round one two three four five so that is that round let's go to the next round and we had a doom encounter card ease uh visions in your mind when your turn ends if you did not performantly spawn resource action creator they discard this card from your hand and take one in one direct damage and one direct forward so not looking good first action [Music] we will evade [Music] i will commit all keyring with cornered so five verses three [Music] plus one right uh the nuggets form is created first action i will play open gate [Music] second action will move from here to here last action we will move no we'll take a resource action actually we don't want to take the horror or the damage and we don't want to be in the garden if we spawn an enemy and that is that round constance here uh these both hot here and that is that round this red is so we discard these two cards we draw two three cards spectral razor scratch for buy some manual dexterity and we gain a resource so that is that round let's go to the next round we'll add a doom and count the card for this round is when you turn ends if you did not perform at least one move action so again uh okay well first action we'll move to the garden oh yeah uh our goal is to uh investigators have phone four of the following you must advance so uh yeah i forgot to do that shuffle i think we shuffled the monsters before this advance so i think we're good okay so we have the objective it's undefeated investigators resound advanced so guardian gains action if there are already enemies in the guard and resign finally a way out and there is one clue here and we'll try to [Music] yeah we have one two three four so yeah we advanced so we'll just resign before anything bad happens okay well that was a tight one we were able to resign and get out unfortunately we got two less experience because of this stupid card so let's see the resolution so if [Music] so let's see oh yeah so we took the keys by four so resolution two uh let's see resolution two in your camper lock record that the investigators were attacked as they escaped asylum uh each investigator suffers one physical trauma as they are assaulted by the asylum cards each investigator earns experience equal to the victory x value of each car in the victory display uh constance is not under vrp slain now uh remove all special tokens and add two tablet tokens to the back and we continue to interrupt the lost soul uh i'll read that and resolve that after this so um yeah well the campaign continues uh next up we have the uh phantom of truth scenario which is also a really interesting one and yeah we escape the asylum thanks to the other gate that really helps out in this scenario so we only got uh we got uh one two so we got zero experience so well no changes will be made to the deck so uh yeah that is that game thanks for watching and until next time

All In ticket sales are already at 35,000: Wrestling Observer Live
you know sometimes I send you anything I'd like to say I told you so but or whatever you know but now after what happened with that whale I don't want to do anymore because I don't want to be anything like him but I will say yeah I will say that last night he's making a change look at this yeah I'm making a change because I realized what a Despicable horrible thing it is to be like obnoxious arrogant rude horrible it's horrible I did it to be funny he did it to be legit but anyway so last night Dave said what's your what's your prediction and I said I'd said you know right around I'd say about thirty thousand we might guess because of course they had like you know 60 000 requests or whatever and uh you know if I knew if I know one thing from running a business over the years it's like a lot of people will say a lot of things till they actually have to pay the money a big difference between pledging and delivering yes a 60 000 pre-sales I thought you know what a safe number would be I would say is is I'd say first day about uh about thirty thousand and uh it looks according to Dave that uh First Day sales for Wembley are thirty five thousand which guarantees aw will have their largest ever attendance largest ever gate before a single match is even announced 60 000 pre-sale codes were requested and distributed uh The Clash of the castle event in Cardiff WWE had nearly 90 000 requested in a similar pre-sale system and of course they did not get ninety thousand what about uh I think it was or someone 45 50 or something like that but full seating capacity the event is unknown but uh that is just first day that's first day pre-sale so I think the actual on sale date is is Friday and I think they're going to comfortably get I would say at minimum by the time the show rolls around I would say at minimum you know 50 55 000. are they going to get 90 I mean they could but um does Tony work the number no I don't think so I don't think he will well with Clash of Castle what they claimed was let's see 62 296. that's what at least it shows on the always accurate Wikipedia so if that's what they claimed who knows what they had but you know with aew now I mean you do have a long way off is you know fifteen thousand too few to ask for because at least that puts you at 50 000 which is a great number sounds like a great number of people on the outside it's impressive so I know that thing can seat you know at eighty thousand ninety thousand just depending on what configurations they decide to have and how much of the field they decide to use in the stage and all that stuff but the bottom line is it's their biggest gate it's going to be their biggest attendance and it's going to be a big show so you know what the what the quality of the show is going to be we'll find out later on down the line but you know that was a big haul for the open and you got months and months to try to draw people to it and sell the rest of those seats well we'll follow that over the next couple of days and then uh obviously the next big day is Friday for the the public on sale although really you know to me I could be wrong about this but aw it's not like a a WWE event where you know for example your mom has heard of WWE and knows of Hulk Hogan and that sort of thing and you know they draw a large casual base wherever they go I mean for aw and Wembley Stadium my guess is that you know most people that know about the show and are going to want to go to the show they're going to get that pre-sale code they're not going to say ah let all the good tickets go we'll do you know on Friday we'll just uh you know be the public so I would I would bet that you know I don't think it's gonna be like you know 35 000 today and then 35 000 when the official tickets go on sale I would think that uh you know this is the big early Surge and then the idea here is well you know keep pushing it hard make it seem like it's going to be this thing you can't miss start announcing some matches for uh for what you would like to do for the show obviously we're a long way out start getting some travel packages going not only for you know possibly here but obviously for you know all over the European continent to try to get people over there and make it you know worthwhile try to bundle things together the best you can to help people out on money you know when they are yeah again because look how many 30 you know 30 dollar tickets I'm assuming you're going to be available I'm assuming that's about the cheapest price right 25 or 30 bucks in all likelihood you know whatever that is in in Euros right now but you know you put things together like that too to try to draw people in where again because it's not like people are not hurting for money all over the place too so in all the months that you have leading into this thing try to put some things together where you can draw people and try to add value to to going to the show the main event I was so disgusted why does a guy like that that's been a champ for so long have to have three guys come in and help him disgusting isn't it yes it is so disgusting there is a lot of great matches there were the first day the second day was back to this same old crap her favorite was Gunther versus Drew versus Sheamus you hit Gunther really why'd you hate about him just doesn't look great to me doesn't look crunchy okay all right his favorite was the first 34 minutes of Cody Roman his least favorite was the final three seconds of Cody Rowan granted do you agree with any of these opinions here what was that I think she fell asleep yeah Bailey was on Wheel of Fortune and by e bye e it's set by Biggie Biggie okay for your birthday this year I'm not going to get you something decent you're gonna

Teslas is a hazard #shorts #fire #fy #news #tesla #environment
firefighters to stand around and watch whereas right now a lot of the research and studies say the best thing you can do is just let it burn the issue with the electric vehicles is access to the batteries the batteries are what are causing the enormous amount of heat buildup the car is about to be towed away the battalion chief says though that once it's gone someone will have to keep watching it they have to make sure that those batteries don't reignite and even after it's towed to whatever tow yard it's going to a lot of times the tow yards will submerge the vehicle in water to keep those batteries from flaring back up several hours later and causing another fire

2.06 Hausdorffness
we now come to one of the weirder properties that topological space can have which is the notion of house toughness and you will not have come across this in it cause some metric spaces because all metric spaces are how stuff you never need to worry about something failing to be how stuff so let me tell you what it means first so a topological space X is how stuff if for all x and y in X such that X is not equal to Y there exists open sets U and V in X such that X is in u Y is in V and U and V don't intersect so let's just check what I just claimed that any metric space is how stuff because I have two points that are not equal and the distance between them is nonzero by one of the axioms of a metric space so let let's call the points x and y let D be the distance between x and y and then if I take a ball of radius 1/2 D around X and 1/2 D around why they're disjoint open balls and why is that well if Z is in the ball of radius 1/2 D around X I want to show it not in the ball of radius after and Y so then the distance from Z to y plus the distance from X to Z is greater than or equal to by the triangle inequality the distance from X to Y which is D and the distance from X is that is less than D over 2 so this whole expression is less than D said y plus D over 2 so if I just subtract off the day over - I get the distance from Zed - I it's bigger than or equal to D over 2 so Zed cannot lie in the ball the open ball of radius D over 2 around Y okay so these balls are disjoint so any two ball any two points can be separated by balls in a metric space that's to say the metric space is housed off now we haven't really seen enough constructions of topological spaces to construct an example which is not house 12 yet we will see such examples when we cover the quotient topology and there are many many examples so what I'm going to do instead is to give you a bunch of properties that how stuff spaces have because in real life usually we only care about how stuff spaces in this course at least we only care about how to store spaces so let's see what nice things there are to say about how stuff spaces so first if X is how stuff so how stuff topological space and X n is a sequence of points in X such that xn converges to X and xn converges to Y for some points x and y then x equals y so there's a unique limit of a sequence in house-door space which is good right otherwise how do we do anything well I haven't actually told you what convergence of sequences means in topological spaces so that's the first thing I should really do so what does it mean for xn to converge to X it means that for any open set you containing X you should think of this is like a sequence of you could take a sequence of smaller and smaller balls if this was a metric space then the tail of this sequence lives in you so there exists an N such that xn is in you for bigger than capital n that's what convergence means if you translate this into the metric topology unless you as a sequence of open balls of smaller and smaller radius this gives you the usual notion of convergence and metric spaces so let's proceed let's suppose that I do have two limits which are not equal to one another X Y then by the hamster of assumption I can find an open set around X and an open set around Y such that they're disjoint now my sequence comes along and it goes hmm which way should I go well we know it has to end up in in you eventually because xn converges to X but then it also has to end up in V eventually because it has to end up in V because it converges to Y but it also has to end up in you actually has thrown up in V so it just keeps running from side to side and getting confused more formally because xn converges to X there exists an n such that xn is in U for all n bigger equal to n and because U is disjoint from V that means xn does not converge to Y okay this is the kind property we want our spaces to have which is why we'll usually be working with how stuff spaces so let me prove another nice useful lemma about how stuff spaces which is that a compact subset okay of a hostel SpaceX is closed so what do we have to prove we need to show that the complement is open that's what it means for K to be a closed set so suppose this is X this is K let's pick a point y that's not in K right if if there is no such point if x equals K then the complement is empty so it's open so we don't need to worry for each point X in K the house toughness assumption gives us open sets maybe call it you let me do a different color you X around X and V Y actually call it V X because it depends on x and y around Y such that u X and V X are disjoint so each X in K gives by the house toughness assumption UX containing X and a VX containing Y so they're disjoint you and this this gives me a bunch of sets you X and a bunch of sets the X and what we have to do then is say okay as K is compact we can we can cover K with finally many of these you axes so there exists a finite set of x i's in k such that K is the union of the corresponding you X eyes just like in this picture there's just a finite number of read sets and I find out a number of corresponding blue sets and then then the finite intersection of the corresponding VXI is open and notice that's because we're taking finitely many guys no finally many sets that were intersecting and that finance is coming from the compactness earlier on this is an example where this compactness thing is really useful so this intersection of VX is open and it's disjoint from K so these blue sets although I've actually drawn them disjoint from K they don't need to be they could go through K as long as they don't intersect the corresponding red subsets so maybe I'll do do you want in green right so maybe this one is you X and maybe this one is the corresponding V X okay so V X is allowed to go into K as long as it doesn't hit you X but if we take the intersection of all these VX eyes because the UX eyes cover the whole of K this intersection has to be disjoint from at least one of those UX eyes so this intersection has to be destroyed from K so that implies K is closed because every point Y in the complement of K is contained in one of these intersections that's disjoint from Kay taking the union of all those open sets keeps the compliment of K which is then has to be open okay so the things you have to take away from this video are when a space is how stuff or what that means and I guess this is really the the key thing we're actually going to use in a later video so that a compact subset of a house table space is closed it's going to be a really useful fact later

MJF, Sasha Banks & Naomi, Double or Nothing | We're Live Pal!
hey we're live pal second second show of the day for andrew and i maybe there's a third one um i think that i don't think that that one [Laughter] so for this one we have will washington from from graph city uh we're gonna talk about of course what everyone's talking about the mjf situation uh we're also gonna talk about some of the other stuff going on in wrestling double or nothing is this weekend i'm very interested to see or to hear you know what you guys are looking forward to the most on that show and maybe that changes based on the information we have today uh we may get into mariah carey no we'll probably won't get number one because we could because with will we could do an entire show on mariah carey i have talked to will before a lot about mariah carey but probably we'll have to save that show for a different day but anyways will welcome thanks for jumping on for having me how has your vegas weekend been so far hot insanely hot i uh other than that it's been great uh it just i've been so busy i've been all around and the hard thing is i've been in and out of vegas because i flew in wednesday flew out thursday then flew back because you your daughter had a graduation congratulations uh she just finished elementary school and i wasn't gonna miss that amazing uh i flew back and then i i'm back here and it's been really really crazy uh this mjf story is insane and i feel like as we're doing this more information is going to keep coming out don't worry i'm checking myself out some came out constantly so jj filled us in with a little information that his flight is going to newark apparently interesting so this flight that was has been uh scheduled to fly out of las vegas is are we sure is it in his name is it in like i don't know but i asked my friend at jetblue i was like hey my nhs is that 10 45 out of out of vegas is he on that maybe they'll tell me maybe they won't i don't know so we'll get to that in a second i know people are probably wanting to hear more but before that you guys did your podcast today out of the blue wire studios we did how was that that was amazing um you know me phil and reg are all from three different locations you know i'm from denver and uh philip lindsay is from chicago reg is uh out of the bay area um he's out towards me yeah i didn't know that yeah reg uh he he's originally from bakersfield but he lives currently in oakland and oh wow so yeah it's uh and that's why him and hobbs are super close okay okay yeah um and so we've you know we've convened before we've uh met up before but we had never done a show in person the three of us together i've done a show with reg and i've done a show with have i done a show with phil no i hadn't done a show with phil in person and so uh but they had done a show together so that was the connection but the three of us hadn't connected yet and so it was great to get to do it at uh at bluewire and uh andreas set that up and i was a really happy shout out uh andreas hale um thank you and uh and shout out cole as well for uh for handling all of the technical side of things it was great yeah this is a great deal that they put together with the win well can i ask you how did you put put together that podcast um that was really kind of serendipitous it was like you know i had been doing um my old show rbr for about 16 years and i had started kind of a side show called wrestling with weekends and i was doing that for uh i think i only actually completed eight episodes of that show but in that process uh i had done some of my best podcasts i'd ever done and one of the episodes i had done it was the second episode was with phil lindsey and i had some people up in pro wrestling listen to that show and and give me some really great feedback and they liked it and uh and so i was gonna keep on this track of doing that show wrestling with weekends every saturday morning and then uh i want to say it was oh it was september 11th 2021 and i remember that because we talked about the 20th anniversary of 9 11 on it and i had righteous reg on the show and we had another great episode and everything just went really smoothly and at the end of the episode you know anytime you have a guest i'm sure you guys will say it today uh you give the obligatory hey we got to do this again something yeah absolutely yeah and i had said that to reg and then reg uh goes yeah maybe one day me you and phil do something light bulb and it was like that monday i asked them and then we connected with sean maybe two days later and uh and that was it the graph city was born basically i transformed wrestling with weekends i was like you know what let's do graph city on the weekends i'll drop wrestling with weekends we'll stop that and that's where graph city was born and it's just taken off from there so i don't know if you notice garrett after will came on the show with me we we i just we were just shooting a [ __ ] for like a good 30 minutes afterwards and then we discovered that we kind of started off the same way in podcasting like with the tech stuff and like our interest it was actually i was like wow i've never spoken to anybody that had like the same strange path yeah like our connections with like tech tv and neil deport and all of that stuff i've never and it was like it was actually great because going from technology you know going from like a comedy podcast attack podcast like wrestling it's like all over the place and then talking to will i was like oh [ __ ] i'm like he had kind of the same entry into podcasting because at that point that's all it was yeah it was just all tech podcasts yeah and so yeah i thought that was you were like a teenager doing this stuff too right i was 17 when i did my first podcast uh and that was like when podcasts weren't like a major thing there were so few that were actually out there um there were only two other wrestling podcasts like what you could officially call a wrestling podcast eventually everything got rebranded as a podcast but at the time there were two official wrestling podcasts when i had kind of got who was it do you remember um i know smart wrestling fan is one of them and another one was called revenge of the wrestling fans i want to say that maybe last year like another year you have to go to podcast alley yeah exactly we have podcasts out there podcast.net yeah all right we've been beating beating around the bush here let's just get into it uh so andrew and i were at dinner we were at texas day brazil with uh all the observer folks for for the for the dinner tonight and uh you know we're kind of getting we're kind of reading sean's twitter cashon's on top of the story and right as we leave sean tweets i can confirm a flight out of las vegas tonight has been booked for mjf and this is after we had read mjf no showed the fan fest for aew and so we're like oh wow there's something going on here and the we started talking like does this mean he's gonna no show the pay-per-view like is he holding some leverage is he you know is he trying to get something out of this does it mean he's supposed to job you know that's all the things that you start thinking about when something like this happens but then that tweet comes out and we're like oh this is maybe a little bit bigger of a deal than we sort of thought it was really big i i can't you know in the beginning i was like well this is a great work because he you know mjf is always in character and you know tony said that the best comes out he did interview i think he said something like you know you blend reality and you get the best out of it uh that's the best of wrestling when reality's involved but you don't start i mean for him to know show and then they have to give money back to people uh that's it and then now if you know i'm not saying that they called sean and told sean right but you don't ever want to work the journalists like that especially when you have a guy like sean that that's you know i i will confirm that uh that that's uh not the case yeah i don't think that's how soon before disco inferno tweeted it's a work everybody i mean we can go down the block and see him at sapphire um i mean i'll say this uh as of right now um a lot is still up in the air uh one of the things that i do know is that tonight is when uh the roster is supposed to go over the matches and the finishes and all of that and the match order and things of that sort so at the very least there should be a lot of confirmation as to whether or not uh he's going to be uh he's expected to be on the show i mean that's i i would i'm i'm actually very surprised if if it comes to that point i would be really surprised that it came to that point because i think mjf is you know you can kind of read that it's a character but you don't really get a good sense of like his personal thoughts and i think you know with cody leaving i think tony's a little bit more conscious about this i would be shocked if if it if he doesn't show up more than you know the rumors of him not showing up uh i don't know i i fall on the other side of it right now i think you think he's gonna know show i think so i think that uh i know this has been boiling for a while um i know he is unhappy um and i i i it i i don't want to put any accusations out there so i won't say what i was thinking just then but uh i will say that it is just kind of very interesting timing yeah to to pull the angle to go all the way with this angle as far as it got um to really the big blow-off the big payoff and here we are now discussing whether or not he's even going to be able to pay off the whole thing that's the part that i am the most surprised by so okay just playing the other side here playing the mjf side we know andrew's been telling us this that there is another company who may be interested in him we know because he keeps selling it we know he did he's going back we also know because he's been talking about when his contract comes up so we know he's he's he's the one broadcasting that right we wouldn't know well some people would know but the the public wouldn't know if it wasn't for him telling people that this is the thing if this is his game this is the perfect time to play hardball right but you don't you don't hold up the promoter the night of you know okay but if you in in a business that is fair right in a business that is not about oneself so and the reason i i'm not saying that this is the right thing to do but if we think about it from the perspective of he's probably one of the most underpaid guys in the company he signed the contract right he got over for this moment to be a free agent uh but if he is like no i you know i i i'm worth more than i and then my current contract is in here is what i want this is the perfect time to play hardball from a leverage perspective he's not making any friends by doing this he's making enemies by doing this right but if you are adamant to do that the the the night before you're having this big giant match that has been being promoted for so long if you're playing hardball that's when you do it oh the yeah and and here's the other thing you know sasha and naomi that's what i was about to say i'm glad you brought it up i wanted to bring it back because that's what i was similar that was exactly what i was about to bring up was that uh i don't know if it's the best timing right now with wwe essentially taking a very public stance against the idea of no showing on your fans and no showing um a pro promoted product right like wwe has taken a very public stance on that and they have very much thrown the performers under the bus on that it uh so the idea right now that um the leverage player for mjf in a situation where he would want to be signed by wwe um to do essentially that uh i think is crazy yeah um it's it's completely crazy and it's in a scenario right now now that's not to say would wwe pass up on mjf probably not um i can tell you there's no way they would right and so there's zero every indicator talking to them now obviously if he's asking for something ridiculous they're going to say no okay do we know if vince has seen his work um zero chance he has i i don't i don't know the answer to that but i could tell you that majority of people on a higher level in that company i mean everybody knows who he is at this point but the majority of people on a higher level in that company realize that the kodi what happened with cody set a precedence and he's in that list of people that would that they would love to have because the impact of him going there and he's also i mean those promos on aw that he would cut weakly to bury them uh they would be so happy about it yeah so i would say i don't know what vince knows or not you really don't hear much about him yeah you hear about everybody else except him yeah well you usually hear that kind of stuff after the fact though because like even when you go back to like the wcw days right where like hunter has always talked about how um when vince courted him vince spoke directly to him about his work he had seen right and like cody um just recently talked about the fact that uh you know it's funny the last show you and i had done together we were speculating on what yeah and what cody was going to bring you know was he going to be um dashing cody rhodes was going to have smoke and mirrors and you know the thing i had said was that i felt like he was going to come in with american nightmare and uh continuing all the music in tow and one of the things that cody talked about in that process he mentioned how you know vince said that's what we're paying for we're paying for this act we're not paying for uh the one that didn't work this won't work yeah we're paying for you we want what you're doing in aw we want to bring it here that's what we're paying for and i feel like mjf will kind of be given the same kind of pitch of like we're not trying to change your name i mean although they don't like guys with the same first names and you've now got a max dupree but uh so that would be interesting i mean we're so sorry are you using the right inflection on dupree isn't it like a dude yeah i don't know paul fontaine is in the room and he's dying to do the impression right now he's doing it with his hands there we go there you go yeah so i don't know i i think that as far as mjf is concerned like he's another one of those cases where they want the act they want every single thing that has come with him being a part of aaw and the reality is you know there is an argument as to it's not just mjf this isn't the feelings that he has it's not just him you started this company a lot of people signed up for you know whatever whatever that base salary was that they signed up for and the company's been in business for three years and they were a startup they're still a startup and but their startup that is signing people to multi-million dollar contracts that were on another roster when they were supposed to be different i'm not saying that i agree with that mentality i'm saying a lot of people feel that way there's a balance for sure for both you have to have a balance but i i think for a lot of the talent they're gonna they're gonna start feeling the same especially when their contracts are ending where's my money i've been here from the beginning i'm on tv the difference is max's contract is not ending yet that's the difference in this whole situation at least 18 months where where it's i've already given you way more value than the money that you've paid me and it sounds like he's un he doesn't really want to renegotiate his current deal to extend it he does want to be a free agent listen well this could be the greatest work of all time this could beat montreal i'm going to put that out there all right montreal was not real montreal wasn't real hogan body slammed andre and he didn't know that he was going to he was going to pen him you know there's like three warriors you know what's funny i admitted on graph city today that it was a really long time before i realized that the iraqi threat at wrestlemania seven was a work i had the bomb threat i thought that was real for the longest but why wouldn't you right why wouldn't you okay so i would have been who jokes about things like that no i would have been i would have been 14 at that time dave's writing for the national he's writing for the the daily sports newspaper and basically he writes because we didn't know on tv yet it hadn't happened on tv where they changed the venue but he writes that they changed the venue to the la sports arena and they're going to tell you that this is the reason the real reason they've only sold 15 000 tickets or whatever it was right and so even before the angle played out on tv i as a 14 year old kid knew all the things it was kind of ridiculous right you're like oh my gosh why how do i know this information that you know that's happening on tv but yeah that's like that that's back then dave 1991 dave throwing 95 miles an hour i thought as a kid legit i was like whoa like sergeant slaughter really messed up here um that's also when bob costas pulled out oh yeah yeah yeah yeah when he knew when he saw that that was the angle he's like i'm out he didn't like it yeah i mean bad decision making there i mean great heat on on slaughter not not not like bomb threat you know he but great heat on him but you took g.i joe made him into a heel why you know like he's an all-american hero now he's coming out with agnon and colonel mustafa you're telling me that colonel mustafa is not the irony now i i was aging myself now you're you're good i'm going into the early 90s now you're going uh okay so um we're gonna carry your whitney houston so you actually you actually made up by knowing that he went back for the graduation because i think you lost some points with him when you did i know i didn't you know what i didn't know that he's a big mariah carey fan but i've totally forgot i gave i gave a very political answer yeah yeah it was right in the middle for both of them there's no in the middle oh okay i say that but i i fully have to say that um whitney you love whitney yeah i love whitney i absolutely love whitney are you kidding me like whitney has such a range of hits but mariah is the goat it's it's you know you're right you're absolutely right okay back so you you brought up the sasha in a naomi situation which is i i wanted to bring that up too so we were kind of on the same wavelength but can we actually talk about that situation because i feel like i've been at least on the f4w in wrestling observer website i've kind of been a little bit closer to the talent side on that story um but i you and i haven't talked about this but i was wondering you know what do you think about that whole situation um i mean i i absolutely see the talent side of it um as far as the creative aspect of it and uh i also i don't know i i can never side with the corporation i just can't um you know once vince revealed himself as a higher power no but in general i just uh like i recognize that as a company um that's an extremely frustrating situation and like i i don't even necessarily disagree with some of the consequences i don't disagree with the suspension what about that what about the hands of spanking on smackdown right though is incredibly unprecedented right that's one of those things where they rarely do that yeah and you know i know a lot of people compare it to austin right but i think one of the differences with austin was that um a lot of every time i see people bring up austin in the walkout from 2002 we forget that they literally use that to make money a week later was the introduction of ruthless aggression they literally used the walk out of steve austin to essentially push the rebrand of the company to say okay we've entered a new era this is ruthless aggression they are costing themselves money with sasha and naomi on the other hand they took away all their merchandise they like they are willingly not making money off of this uh storyline that storyline um not making money off of this situation the way that they did with austin and i don't think like that's to me is unprecedented wwe is always in the mode of hey how can we monetize this and for them to take this situation and go okay they are taking away all their merch because they are not going to make any money right now um we are going to make sure they uh the public is fully aware of the situation a match that look they have changed matches in the middle of raw with no explanation they very well could have just changed and the most people would have done is gone you know the old hans moment of didn't there used to be a six-person match um and uh and then somebody would you know my issue with it is that there's the the story that they didn't like the outcome of the match and that's what triggered this it it's more than this oh yeah it's never it's not one match because one match changes you know constantly yeah this is it's death by a thousand cuts and that was like nine hundred dollars and that was that was the catalyst to to trigger them to say you know what this we're unhappy we don't like this and we want to do something different and we want to push it now i i mean obviously there's going to be a lot of fill in the wwe side of the story is that this account came straight from vince and john laurinitis and the producers but what are the producers going to say yeah we told them to check their attitudes and they got even more angry at us and we escalated the situation after vince you know kind of calmed everybody down no they're not going to say that so i just hope that they work things out for themselves you know you never want to see someone lose money like that especially to hypertext so i said this on uh wrestling observer radio last friday uh but i think it's relevant to bring up again because you know how you have a bad culture at your company when it comes to talent is when you use situations like that to basically tell the other talent in the company this is what's gonna happen if you try this right so don't even dare what that really means though is there are other people who maybe possibly wanting to do that because at companies that are happy with the talent or the employees you don't have to scare people into doing their job you they just they're just gonna do their job so that part tells me that they believe that there's other unhappy talent who who may be tremendous you know we got to make the example out of them so that nobody else tries to problem for a long time it's not just now think about how many people from the beginning of the pandemic to now not got released but requested their release stop ali i i mean is he happy there now i don't think so i think he went back because he had to he's he's not saying he's throws his contract yeah he has a family has kids he has a wife he has to think about them too but you know and he's not the only one how many of them were asking for their release uh we've heard this so it's an overall culture change there uh i think there are some people that are going to love the that culture of being very corporatized and being like you know you're a machine you fit this role you're an actor you fit this role that's how and generationally it's going to change into that yeah these these problems of you know sasha and naomi being unhappy with creative they're gonna beat that out of their comp out of their company for as a whole for talent nxt is being trained totally differently and they are being taught that they are actors fulfilling a role that they are hired to fulfill and that is the story of the character now professional wrestling's very different than movies and tv but that is how they are positioning this where how dare you say no to something it's your job it's on paper you're an actor but that's not wrestling right now wrestling is is such a different beast because of the fact that uh you know they're not just playing these these roles like kind of one time although you know maybe that's the culture wwe is trying to foster um and uh yeah i i can you're also not getting hit on the head and falling on your back constantly if you're an actor well you know i think you're a little bit more protective of your character in professional wrestling you're not just the uh actor you're the stunt man as well and you're uh every little part of it um but yeah i i can see the idea of them wanting essentially that mindset um because you know there's a lot of higher ups in wwe view that as a mark mentality right that you yeah you know that uh well you care this much about what your character is doing like you know look at johnny depp right i mean first of all that trial is the best tv there's i mean the best what did you look like man what did you tell me what did you tell me amber heard's nickname was amber turd amber turd fantastic name but he he's the way he talks about losing that pirates of the caribbean character he he talks about like a terrible example but it's like how he lost his finger you know like like that's the comparison that's how it was part of him yeah and now it was stolen away from him and he could never be that person again it's it's almost kind of reminiscent of that because sasha banks identity is sasha banks yes same thing with naomi and you become the person that you represent because you have to live that when you're out on the street you have to live that up with the kids that come up to you oh yeah when people are booking like interviews and stuff the tonight show all of that they're not booking you know mercedes renato right they're booking sasha banks you know that you it's somebody whereas that mercedes is a pretty dope name though she could rebrand it i think at some point she can make it work and same with trinity i think trinity was much better yeah a more marketable name than naomi was but um you you wouldn't see it that way right like it's not like um you know anybody does uh an interview with sirloin k brown they're not booking randall pearson they're booking um sorry i love this guy but like they're not going to book randall i'm going to miss it i'm going to miss the pearsons so much by the way i haven't seen the last episode i haven't used it but i did i did call my wife when she was watching it and she was crying she was like i can't [ __ ] talk to you right now i i really can't i'm in like the worst depressed state i've been here please leave me alone i have i've had it on my dvr since it aired tuesday and we just uh my wife and i and my wife's actually in the room um i we started it tuesday night and then all of a sudden you know i had to fly here wednesday and i was like okay we will turn it off and get to it later and we just haven't gotten to it writing all that yeah yeah so phenomenal yeah i'm a big beth pearson fan beth is i think randall and beth are just a phenomenal yeah if our advantage could even be remotely that witty i would love it the this is this is a very another dated reference but growing up everybody wanted to be cliff and claire huxtable now nobody wants to be nobody nobody wants to be especially when you watch some of those now it's now it's randall and beth randall and beth are the just the ideal couple yeah they're so great um well you know the thing that you said about it's you you have a hard time like standing by the corporation versus the talent i lo you know i learned that from q-tip from a tribe called quest q-tip said industry rule number 4080 record companies are shady and he was talking about he was talking about the you know the business of music but it very much applies the promoter something like this right because like if you think about we can even talk about real sports like lebron james he probably makes 45 million from the lakers right but his value to the nba is way more than that right and so it's like the the product that these folks are when they try to make more i i don't have a marker because there's a shelf life and the nba or wwe whoever their argument is you wouldn't have this ability if we didn't propel you or we didn't you know set you up for the success i think with like mb like lebron is one of the most talented basketball players of all time but still to be said you know if he didn't have that nba backing him with merchandise and everything would they where how much money would he make it's not it's not that's how these companies all think if if we weren't here you wouldn't be here yeah so they're the players crap we're the platform we take the bunch of that money listen there's obviously a better solution here for all of it but i think for i'm i'm just waiting for wwe make a comment about aew's pay especially after the tony khan comments yeah yesterday right oh my god we were just saying i could not resist i was just saying you know at some point like i like tony's transparency in this because a lot of the things that wwe does that's similar is kind of dirty play behind the scenes but i did say at some point he's gonna eat [ __ ] for it but i kind of like the fact that he goes out in front of it and then the next day it you know something happens and that's why i was surprised i was like wondering is i wonder if wwe is going to like make a snarky comment i told you to reason whether or not yeah i didn't hear this reason no i told him off oh fine i'll tell you off to you okay uh i i i think it's it's man you know wrestling is fun again yeah it's you're talking about stuff that you we have not talked about in years well a big piece of that is that uh when you think about the culture of pro wrestling in the 90s and how um it was really a talents market because at that point you had to keep talent happier they were going to jump ship and for a long time the there was definitely a culture of um not necessarily caring about what the talent wants because at that point where are you going to go impact um i'm sorry that's the second time i'm shocked i'm sorry i love impact two shots today tna yeah what are you gonna do work for jeff jarrett no although i had a wrestler tell me that um many years ago that um that vince had straight up told them were you gonna go work for dixie carter and that was it like that was what that wrestler was actually told um this was like 10 years ago uh but uh and i that quote has stuck with me ever since but uh i i think about that right and how that's how people that's how the culture for about 20 years it really is terrible because think about it you you have worked let's say 15 years you get to the top right you get to where you want to be and then you get cut at the company yeah there's nowhere else for you to work right it's like you have the worst specialty job ever you become you become super successful and they're like hey sorry you're not working out for us or are you too old and then you go to this other place and you're making pennies on the dollar compared towards it it was terrible for years and years and i think you know having another option there that could facilitate some of these guys and you know re reinvent them more than anything else is going to change everything and when you look at it now yeah we have the other options and now that we have two major companies we're seeing it on both sides where both sides are seeing talent that see the grass is greener on the other side and so uh we'll see how that plays out uh but it is i think it is very much a good thing for wrestlers to essentially have the ability to be able to say you know what i know it's a quote that nobody likes to say anymore but that's not going to work for me i had a vision i had a vision i don't know if you know this i'm a little clairvoyant oh tell him with my ability hey we were just talking about her from the cosby [Laughter] so andrew has a special talent very special talent in a hotel when you choose the button so that we can go up the uh the elevator there's like eight elevators he can figure out what's the one that that's it's gonna light up it's i can't i can't predict anything else except that however i have seen a vision all right all of a sudden there's a vignette okay it's a house really nice house in georgia static camera gets closer static again zooms in it's brandy no way outside and the cuts all of a sudden again there's stuff missing in the house it's cody and brandy inside of the house did you take the keys where's the dog the dog's gone right pharaoh's missing this continues money in the bank cody climbs up lights go off lights come on he's staring down there's a man wearing a ski mask all in black you're just going to the dog do the ddp angle all over again it's mjf that's his debut he's the stalker oh my god i'm telling you i put this in the garage in the universe oh cody has another tattoo just as brandy on his neck just add another terrible tattoo but this is how it ends this is how they do it see isn't that a fantastic way to do it i mean it works so you know the funny thing was sound bad the funny thing was like with ddp like with mjf that's almost like a believable angle because the problem with the ddp angle was that that was like so much not like anything we knew ddp to be in wcw right he was positively paige we knew him as a member he's stalking a man yeah we knew him as married to kimberly last we checked yeah and so uh and the guy who never joined the nwo like that was ddp right and then they bring him in they're like no he's actually stalking the undertaker's wife and he's been doing so for months and it makes no sense whatsoever so like i feel like mjf the equivalent of that would be to bring him in and what a heinous guy right you know what make him the stalker i'm all into it good good segue to our next segment here uh double or nothing you excited for the show uh i was excited and now i'm more interested than i've ever been oh with that match especially huh yeah just in general like all of a sudden what's going on uh i want to get before we get out of here we'll wrap it up soon but i want to get both of your thoughts on one what's the match that you most are looking forward to and then two what do you think the best match on the show will be okay uh can i give a third yes and that should be a sleeper match yes um because sometimes it's not necessarily the best uh because i think my sleeper is gonna be um darby versus kyle o'reilly i think that thinking enough time uh i think even if those guys only get like seven minutes i think they would give it the best seven minutes they could yeah uh i think it'll be a sprint yeah i think they they could absolutely do a crazy sprint or they get time i don't know uh but either way i think that'll be a sleeper um i think the the match i'm most looking forward to is really the world title and yeah for me it's just because of the fact that uh out of what this is aw's 13th pay-per-view i want to say um is it really it's number 13 yeah i think were you at the first no i wasn't at the first i was at the second the first uh i i went to all out but yeah there you go uh yeah so this is pay-per-view number 13. um and in being pay-per-view number 13 one thing i've noticed is that the world title matches while good have for the most part been predictable and this is the first time that i've looked out and seen that no one has a consensus there isn't like a general okay cm punk's winning hangman's winning and with that i feel like there's so much interest there's gonna be so much buzz in the building uh over at t-mobile i think that crowd's gonna tell the story of that match yeah i think so i have a great ending to that match does it have anything to do with ddp camera shows aj well she was on renee's show today she was on renee's show yeah i i i agree with you i think this is the first time that i feel that i don't know who's going to win and i think if either one wins i'm happy you know which is always a plus when you're watching something like this but you know now there's another story that is overshadowing a hangman page main event yeah right and that that poor guy and you know we spoke about this how you know the cm punk stuff was kind of overshadowing it uh the date the brian danielson stuff was overshadowing it and now you have uh another situation uh they're gonna have a fantastic match regardless it's gonna be a great pay-per-view uh but that's that's the one that i'm really looking forward to that's gonna be the best match too and hook housing i wanna say uh best match honestly that's tough because i it's a card that looks like up and down could deliver and uh like i think that three-way tag is gonna be really good uh i feel like you know the three-way that they had on dynamite just this past week was really good and uh they barely scratched the surface there and i feel like uh that three-way tag could end up being a phenomenal match oh the uh the for the title yeah for the titles yeah i think that could be i think not that i think i know that's going to be a great match but i'm curious who wins it you know you could incorporate christian in there and you start that few with jungle boy because they've been doing those facial reactions and i actually think that uh the tag champs i would rather see that match without the tag champs i didn't want to see those other teams have a match well you know what's funny is it's because i like the story behind this match because i feel like it's been um a lot more subtle than uh but i feel like it there's been a lot more story there than people are getting it's not just a match for a match for a title right because like the story there that i think the story element that i think people are missing and i feel like it's going to pay off after double or nothing is the fact that both the triple threat that we had on dynamite this past week and the three-way at the pay-per-view neither match were set up by jurassic express yeah christian christian put them in that and jungle boy lost the first one and i think they'll also lose the tag team titles and it's one of those situations where christian put them in a situation and they both and in both times they failed and that's where he turns on him he's like i set you guys up to prove me right and you proved me wrong once again you disappointed me turns on him then we get the jungle boy christian feud that we've wanted uh any predictions for boston miami i know who i i'm going miami it's jimmy butler is here uh not as okay jimmy butler's here to win the eastern conference finals i think oh my god it's golden state's here um it's going to stay like every year i like it yeah i of course look uh i've always said that as a nuggets fan a die hard nuggets fan the team that eliminates the nuggets from the playoffs which obviously always happens because the nuggets have not won a championship um that's the team i stick with going forward because then i can say the loss wasn't in vain yeah so therefore uh i am root i've been rooting for golden state pretty much ever since the nuggets got eliminated and that's the team that i'm going for i did the same thing last year with the suns i did the thing the year before with the lakers which very much made me grimace but i i had to do it so golden state i think is going to ultimately win but i think jimmy butler is going to win uh uh yeah easter conference all right last question better chance of mjf showing up at the pay-per-view or mjf sitting in the first row in miami for miami boston oh my god you know what that would be the thing to go do yeah that would be what a great what a great is that game on tnt because if so that would be almost the weirdest oh is it is it espn or is it abc it's espn okay or or maybe maybe maybe absolutely tnt had the warriors series okay because chuck was trying to go to cancun like every game he's like can we just get this thing over with best i love chuck he's so great that whole thread of charles barkley being one of the funniest man yeah that's a great thread that is a great thread um all right i think we're done here we're done this was awesome this is awesome thank you very much for uh for doing this thank you for having me really absolutely it was awesome uh so andrew and i did a show with brian and dave that is already up on the website both youtube and the website we'll get this thing up with will we're about to have a sweet party some of the people are already here we actually had an audience and it's nice it's kind of weird and i have so much more respect for people who perform in front of a live audience because every time i'd say something paul would like wave his hands and it'd like distract me and i'm like okay i gotta think of what i'm saying i'm just looking at jj take fancy photos of me same thing right but it's the same thing like you know sun casts taking photos and you're trying to like stay you know in concentration but um no we're good here uh so four will for andrew we're gonna get back to the party i'm double g see you when we see you peace out

the other side okay so the first matriculation and the first were all out here so when you are talking about the issue up here Us in 1961 that is a republican status so we call the streets with all right now you know they are very reasonable at that time foreign [Music] thank you all right so that's how we got away that's why they are called Republican and our thoughts were set the peace now you

between the hours of what you call the Earth would tell me the time we just write it okay and to give you access so anyone who doesn't have an Access Control Card would not be allowed to come into the home and by then I want to promise my conversation on two quotes the first one came from a man who died in the year in 1958. he is known by many as the most intelligent person in the history of humanity his name is Einstein wasn't the prophet yes he believed in God but he wasn't extremely religious one day he said something and I could he said I look forward to a day that technology was to perceive human interaction and that very day human beings were become Foods at the time Einstein was saying this there were no computers at the time Einstein was saying this there were no laptops but the time Einstein was saying this there was nothing like social media by the time Einstein was saying that there was nothing like phones at the time he was saying this we didn't have you we didn't have Google mix we met as human beings we had deep conversations with ourselves but through the lenses of a prophet he said that it's possible the time may come that the advancement of Technology was to perceive human interaction and to get to a point in time where human beings will fall in love when technology more than our fully human beings and I'm afraid you are getting to that point in time it's possible that you have been here for more than a day or we have been here for a day but then some of us may not even know the names of our roommates you see in the same year 1958 the greatest African writers in my own view his name he wrote the first book which has become a book that Everyone likes him especially those who like Politics the title of the book is Then Fall Apart he said a man who calls his King's man to fix does not do so to save them from starving they all have food in their homes where we gather together in a man when we gather together in the village Moonlight but it's not because there is no more light in our homes everyone can see it in this compound we come together because it is good for kids men to do so with the advancement of Technology various programs with the advancement of Technology we could have passed lectures in our classes now oh in our own homes without coming here but then psychologies and sociologists understand the need for us to exist together because when we exist together we share each other's burden and we are able to understand ourselves better the point I want to strive here is this we have found ourselves here students but today I am supporting to you I want us to the family I want you to see the one person by your left or right and family because nobody knows tomorrow as we sit here once and I know for sure and then in

gonna have like a ton of too these types of lasers having to get past them like this that was so close we literally almost made it our last run is there a better route like am i missing something that i should be doing instead it's so funny i actually use it like this my god hi i i why i hate how op the thing is too the one time i waited too long my i got spotted going over it okay so i can drop here right did we do it he got through there at least scoping these nice to see you again look i'm here adam jensen explain oh god all i hear is his voice nobody's coming to save you this time andre now tell me what the hell is read up to reid's working with megiddo he's using third echelon to get emps into the country and cited in dc i i helped set it up it's what i do [Music] the president they're gonna take out the president after the emps go off paralyze the city use it as cover for the hit tonight why go after the president i can't tell you rudel she won't play ball but the vp is already in makito's pocket reed gets a medal and a big fat promotion after it all goes down that son of a [ __ ] last question this is the important one what do you know about my daughter if i tell you you're gonna kill me no damn i don't know anything about her fisher like i said they gave me a picture told me to provide a body that matched i did a lot of jobs like that for third echelon anything they needed ask your friend graham's daughter i worked with her a bunch of times she knows more about this than i do oh shut up still alive good i think does this gun get any good upgrades if you upgrade you can do three okay that's fully upgraded too i wish you could upgrade the uh wait are these silenced or no oh you can get them silenced though that one you can and this one depressor we're gonna have to upgrade this guy ah damn oh well oh well oh cool discussion with your friend cobin reed's in bed with megiddo they're going after the president and playing king maker with a vp the emps are for cover of course aid won't be able to get there in the aftermath and they'll have a convenient terrorist attack as cover for everything cobin had a few other things to say i'm headed to your office grim what am i gonna find there something long overdue patch me through in telepresence when you get there we'll talk then headshot ah [ __ ] more of these great and we need to worry about people too oh my god okay yet i'm continuing my sweep god i can't get them still loose [ __ ] are you kidding oh my god here we go that's good uh okay drop down where's the stairs to the second floor there it is oh boy get him got him all right we in cisco nice friends so tell me about sarah graham tell me why you lied to me it was lambert's call sam he thought he was protecting you he had a recording system set up in his office everything that went on in there he saved before new york he gave me the access codes the files can only be triggered on site and only by me this is what he had to say about sarah sarah fisher i'd received reliable intelligence of a credible threat against her one coming from a bowl inside third echelon the threat against sorrow would be used in an attempt to leverage sam sam would then be compromised and i couldn't allow that so i made the hard choice i think sarah's death taking her off the playing board without her sam would be free to act as he needed to he'd suffer but she'd be safe the rest was detailed preparing a new identity for sarah securing her excellent work there had and keeping her hidden then used that despicable creature coven to provide a body that could stand in for the girl and then i lied to my best friend told him his daughter was dead took advantage of his grief and used it for third echelon's purposes and the saddest part of this i never uncovered them all the danger to her and the sam is still out there which means this has to stay hidden you and i that's all perhaps you have to listen to me what's done is done but right now i need you i need the sam fisher i worked with haven't you heard he's dead just ask my daughter sam please my analysts have worked through the rest of the data that you got from whitebox we know what they're doing and we can't stop it then what do you need me for they've got three directional emp generators in place when they go off the pulses will blanket the entire metro area optimal coverage pattern predictions place one of those three at the old city reservoir site well where are we you need to go there and disable it like actually why should i because that's the one that will hit sarah's apartment and if you stop it you can save her from what's coming after holy crap we are there's literally three missions left after this there's only time to go after one this is a short game save your daughter i was never holding her that was just a bluff to get you in the game and for whatever it's worth i'm sorry what about you i'm going to the white house with tom reed and i'm going to try to save the president maybe i'll see you there there's literally like we're on uh yeah i mean honestly at that rate we might as well finish it up today we're on third echelon hq and then there's nine 10 11 scenes right now this is whoa um oh [ __ ] oh we have instant execute because he's like pissed off attention called personnel 23 19 is now in effect site cleanup and data sterilization has begun all personnel must reach minimum safe distance of 100 yards from the building immediately sam read launch protocol 2319 get out of there now warning 23-19 is now in effect have you ever played max payne 3 yes i love that game that's another one of those games that i've been wanting to replay for a while now but i just haven't gotten around to it damn extract so now sam knew everything knew that the best friend he'd murdered had betrayed him for the best reason in the world knew that the thing he'd helped lambert build needed to be utterly destroyed he was his own man now and all his ties to his old life were gone except for grim she called me and call in a favor it was too late to go for the other emps but she did want me to go get sarah sam deserved that much at least these games meanwhile the white house max payne three so i said yes and no way i was gonna trying to think if there's any other but those are games that i repeatedly replayed back in the day like after you beat it instantly play it again answers out of people then again that was pure sam if pure sam when he got mad michigan ave reservoir literally third to last mission so i'll probably have this done within an hour or so which is which will be like perfect timing all right so we got that make sure we got this guy cool interrogate black arrow officer okay holy crap dude just got wasted [Music] oh my god where's this stuff god really what the what's what just happened he like freaked his body freaked out or something i don't know what i i even just saw there's a stuff going one of the checkpoints downtown i'm not sure which one you don't need the stuff for a checkpoint all right ready park it sideways to block the street you put a couple guys roll it like this there we go that's better tell me what i need to know and i might not snap your neck [ __ ] you i'm not afraid of you fisher oh wrong answer that's a weaponized emp over there how do i shut it down i don't know and even if i did i wouldn't tell you [ __ ] funny now tell me what i need to know i don't know anything else i love using the environment i think that's really cool if you don't know who does scientists brought over by apprentice inside the warehouse could it be disposed of after the emp goes off she knows you don't say infiltrate the warehouse all right it's go time are you kidding okay he survived we're good we're good talk about clearing out that room oh my god it definitely takes a second to readjust from playing the the older games to this like having to be much more of an aggressive approach um but then once you do get that down then it it's it's definitely smooth it's just like i kind of wish you could like take out one guy pull him into the corner take out the next guy pull him in like that kind of stuff did you really think i wouldn't notice you sabotaging those systems please i wasn't doing anything oh damn there's a lot of guys here your job is going to come through here makes the most sense if he's here he wants to make big boy over the hammock the best way to deactivate it is to come through here so i'll be seeing fisher soon enough fisher's overrated predictable you want to tell him that when he gets here when he gets here you can talk to him me i'm shooting him in the face huh enough of this fish or crap what the you know what fisher's doing too late for her it's too late to stop what's going down you might as well just give up and die just like your little girl did but don't worry that was pretty sick right there like seven guys cleared out within like two seconds this game does shine when it comes to like that that aspect show yourself or she dies holy [ __ ] got him damn i don't know who you are or what you're doing here but thank you they were there's a weaponized emp slung up a hundred yards from here it's going to be activated tonight tell me how to stop you can't i think what a lot of people are other uh when they're activated they're waiting until a moment where they have to what's the catch they're trying to grind out what they can right now the other one automatically flashes each of them alone is enough to trigger the pulse and then once so i need to hit both everything drops like crazy when it's like all right what do we do now i think that's when they're gonna be like it's time for another splinter cell there's always a way but they are working on a vr spinner saw game it's going to get ugly so uh that's coming at least they love putting sam fisher into other games too which like i'm okay with but at the same time it's like bro just give us just give us another one just like come on now um like i i plan on getting uh uplay plus uh for watch dogs legion since you get all the like uh collector's editions or ultimate editions of games um with it so that covers me for legion and things started getting complicated for some reason sarah was suspicious and i want to try to talk her into climbing into sam didn't know what he was really up against tagging the generators that fed the emp so i could take them out from the air that was the least of it oh boy those are the big dogs right there find the generator generators [Music] come on oh boy i can't see i can't see fish die fisher we're not sky i think this is funny target detected i have to give it another shot that's all right that's kind of a sketchy one anyways it makes it seem like there's so many more guys than there actually is this is where we hold them no contact repeat no contact if fisher's here we can't let him [ __ ] what's the noise oh what i hate the fact that it doesn't like you have to um incorporate getting shot at while you're doing the takedowns i wish i would give you like a two second window of like dodging it because that's what keeps getting me killed here i got no targets hey fisher come here meet my baby box him in i'm not finding fish here but then ah there it is nice sewer thank you thank you yeah i need to watch my car today because tomorrow we're going to a car meet nearby die fisher die die it won't end like at the airfield get him yep got him vic i've got bad news and water remains wet there are two generators powering the emp i need to take both hearts simultaneously and i'm all at a c4 mark the gps coordinates for me i'll see what i can do when i get there roger that yes [Laughter] nice doing flying right over the edge they did they're like what is this boom that worked out perfectly time to move nice took so many shots right there ah really you have to do that [ __ ] over again that sucks that literally worked out perfectly before this again oh holy [ __ ] dude i guess all the training paid off like clockwork hey there we go are you gonna play blacklist nice next yeah i definitely will um god that guy got wrecked i i'm probably won't start it today by my plan would be on monday we'd start it up and then kind of go from there right so i think we can actually go down here instead okay i've got no visual on the hostile [Music] oh my god dude why are they so good with their grenades all right people this is very simple some of you may have heard that sam fisher is somewhere around here as far as we're concerned that doesn't matter i don't like this give them some time they're probably just being thorough or they're dead hear any shooting i don't hear any shooting what the hell is that supposed to be if our guys were down there and fisher was still alive they'd be shooting oh [ __ ] [ __ ] fishes jesus it get ready back up go down that's it man you're back up you're ready to move subject started get in there go we're going in get ready it's the end fisher send reinforcements asap fisher's still loose on site continue the emp countdown we'll find

you're busy but listen up brim had me pick up sarah to get her out of danger she's on board and we're inbound dad what's going on mr costa explained some of it but i don't understand just sit tight

starting timing get it done dude right here find yourself some cover this is gonna get messy let's go go go he probably should have taken her to safety rather than bringing her to the fire fight here but hey hey you should probably just get out before you're reuniting come on go go go go go come on guys sir yeah the night vision goggles are actually expensive yeah they're pretty expensive i

THE CATECHISM OF TRENT(BAPTISM)PART 16✔ ✅
the sacraments baptism the sacrament of baptism importance of instruction on baptism from what has been hitherto said on the sacraments in general we may judge how necessary it is to a proper understanding of the doctrines of the christian faith and to the practice of christian piety to know what the catholic church proposes for our belief on each sacrament in particular whoever reads the apostle carefully will unhesitatingly conclude that a perfect knowledge of baptism is particularly necessary to the faithful for not only frequently but also in language the most energetic in language full of the spirit of god he renews the recollection of this mystery declares its divine character and in it places before us the death burial and resurrection of our lord as objects both of our contemplation and imitation pastors therefore can never think that they have bestowed sufficient labor and attention on the exposition of this sacrament besides the vigils of easter and pentecost days on which the church used to celebrate this sacrament with the greatest devotion and special solemnity and on which particularly according to ancient practice its divine mysteries were to be explained pastors should also take occasion at other times to make it the subject of their instructions for this purpose a most convenient opportunity would seem to present itself whenever a pastor being about to administer this sacrament finds himself surrounded by a considerable number of the faithful on such occasions it is true his exposition cannot embrace everything that regards baptism but it will then be much easier to develop one or two points when the faithful can contemplate with a pious and attentive mind the meaning of those things which they hear and at the same time see it illustrated by the sacred ceremonies of baptism each person reading a lesson of admonition in the person of him who is receiving baptism will call to mind the promises by which he bound himself to god when he was baptized and will reflect whether his life and conduct have been such as are promised by the profession of christianity names of this sacrament in order that the treatment of the subject may be clear we must explain the nature and substance of baptism promising however an explanation of the words itself the word baptism as is well known is of greek derivation although used in sacred scripture to express not only that ablution which forms part of the sacrament but also every species of ablution and sometimes figuratively to express sufferings yet it is employed by ecclesiastical writers to designate not every sort of bodily ablution but that which forms part of the sacrament and is administered with the prescribed form of words in this sense the apostles very frequently make use of the word in accordance with the institution of christ the lord this sacrament the holy fathers designate also by other names saint augustine informs us that it was sometimes called the sacrament of faith because by receiving it we profess our faith in all the doctrines of christianity by others it was termed illumination because by the faith which we profess in baptism the heart is illumined for as the apostle also says alluding to the time of baptism call to mind the former days wherein being illumined you endured a great fight of afflictions chris ostom in his sermon to the baptized calls it appregation because through it we purge away the old leaven that we may become a new paste he also calls it a burial a planting and the cross of christ the reasons for all which appellations may be gathered from the epistle to the romans saint dennis calls it the beginning of the most holy commandments for this obvious reason that baptism is as it were the gate through which we enter into the fellowship of the christian life and begin thenceforward to obey the commandments so much should be briefly explained concerning the name of this sacrament definition of baptism with regard to the definition of baptism although many can be given from sacred writers nevertheless that which may be gathered from the words of our lord recorded in john and of the apostle to the ephesians appears the most appropriate and suitable unless says our lord a man be born again of water and the holy ghost he cannot enter into the kingdom of god and speaking of the church the apostle says cleansing it by the labor of water in the word of life thus it follows that baptism may be rightly and accurately defined the sacrament of regeneration by water and the word by nature we are born from adam children of wrath but by baptism we are regenerated in christ children of mercy for he gave power to men to be made the sons of god to them that believe in his name who are born not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man but of god constituent elements of baptism but define baptism as we may the faithful are to be informed that this sacrament consists of ablution accompanied necessarily according to the institution of our lord by certain solemn words this is the uniform doctrine of the holy fathers as is proved by the following most explicit testimony of saint augustine the word is joined to the element and it becomes a sacrament it is all the more necessary to impress this on the minds of the faithful lest they fall into the common era of thinking that the baptismal water preserved in the sacred font constitutes the sacrament the sacrament of baptism can be said to exist only when we actually apply the water to someone by way of ablution while using the words appointed by our lord matter of baptism now since we said above when treating of the sacraments in general that every sacrament consists of matter and form it is therefore necessary that pastors point out what constitutes each of these in baptism the matter then or element of this sacrament is any sort of natural water which is simply and without qualification commonly called water be it sea water river water water from a pond well or fountain testimony of scripture concerning the matter of baptism for the savior taught that unless a man be born again of water and the holy ghost he cannot enter into the kingdom of god the apostle also says that the church was cleansed by the labor of water and in the epistle of saint john we read these words there are three that give testimony on earth the spirit and the water and the blood scripture affords other proofs which establish the same truth when however john the baptist says that the lord will come who will baptize in the holy ghost and in fire that is by no means to be understood of the matter of baptism but should be applied either to the interior operation of the holy ghost or at least to the miracle performed on the day of pentecost when the holy ghost descended on the apostles in the form of fire as was foretold by christ our lord in these words john indeed baptized with water but you shall be baptized with the holy ghost not many days hence figures the same was also signified by the lord both by figures and by prophecies as we know from holy scripture according to the prince of the apostles in his first epistle the deluge which cleansed the world because the wickedness of men was great on the earth and all the thought of their heart was bent upon evil was a figure and image of this water to omit the cleansing of nim in the syrian and the admirable virtue of the pool of bethsaida and many similar types manifestly symbolic of this mystery the passage through the red sea according to saint paul in his epistle to the corinthians was typical of this same water prophecies with regard to the predictions the waters to which the prophet iai is so freely invites all that thirst and those which is a chill and spirit saw issuing from the temple and also the fountain which zachary forsong opened to the house of david and to the inhabitants of jerusalem for the washing of the sinner and of the unclean woman were no doubt intended to indicate and express the salutary waters of baptism fitness the propriety of constituting water the matter of baptism of the nature and efficacy of which it is at once expressive saint jerome in his epistle to oceanis proves by many arguments upon this subject pastors can teach in the first place that water which is always at hand and within the reach of all was the fittest matter of a sacrament which is necessary to all for salvation in the next place water is best adapted to signify the effect of baptism it washes away uncleanness and is therefore strikingly illustrative of the virtue and efficacy of baptism which washes away the stains of sin we may also add that like water which cools the body baptism in a great measure extinguishes the fire of concupiscence chrism added to water for solemn baptism but it should be noted that while in case of necessity simple water unmixed with any other ingredient is sufficient for the matter of this sacrament yet when baptism is administered in public with solemn ceremonies the catholic church guided by apostolic tradition has uniformly observed the practice of adding holy chrism which as is clear more fully signifies the effect of baptism the people should also be taught that although it may sometimes be doubtful whether this or that water be genuine such as the perfection of the sacrament requires it can never be a subject of doubt that the only matter from which the sacrament of baptism can be formed is natural water form of baptism having carefully explained the matter which is one of the two parts of which baptism consists pastors must show equal diligence in explaining the form which is the other essential part in the explanation of this sacrament the necessity of increased care and study arises as pastors will perceive from the circumstance that the knowledge of so holy a mystery is not only in itself a source of pleasure to the faithful as is generally the case with regard to religious knowledge but also very desirable for almost daily practical use as we shall explain in its proper place circumstances often arise where baptism requires to be administered by the laity and most frequently by women and it therefore becomes necessary to make all the faithful indiscriminately well acquainted with whatever regards the substance of this sacrament words of the form pastors therefore should teach in clear unambiguous language intelligible to every capacity that the true and essential form of baptism is i baptize thee in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy ghost for so it was delivered by our lord and savior when as we read in saint matthew he gave to his apostles the command going teach ye all nations baptizing them in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy ghost by the word baptizing the catholic church instructed from above most justly understood that the form of the sacrament should express the action of the minister and this takes place when he pronounces the words i baptize thee besides the minister of the sacrament the person to be baptized in the principal efficient cause of baptism to be mentioned the pronoun the and the distinctive names of the divine persons are therefore added thus the complete form of the sacrament is expressed in the words already mentioned i baptize thee in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy ghost baptism is the work not of the son alone of whom saint john says he it is that baptizeth but of the three persons of the blessed trinity together by saying however in the name not in the names we distinctly declare that in the trinity there is but one nature and godhead the word name is here referred not to the persons but to the divine essence virtue and power which are one in the same and three persons essential and non-essential words of the form it is however to be observed that of the words contained in this form which we have shown to be the complete and perfect one some are absolutely necessary so that the omission of them renders the valid administration of the sacrament impossible while others on the contrary are not so essential as to affect its validity of the latter kind is the word ego i the force of which is included in the word baptism i baptize neymar the greek church adopting a different manner of expressing their form and being of opinion that it is unnecessary to make mention of the minister amidst the pronoun altogether the form universally used in the greek churches let this servant of christ be baptized in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy ghost it appears however from the decision and definition of the council of florence that those who use this form administer the sacraments validly because the words sufficiently express what is essential to the validity of baptism that is the ablution which then takes place baptism in the name of christ if at any time the apostles baptized in the name of the lord jesus christ only we can be sure they did so by the inspiration of the holy ghost in order in the infancy of the church to render their preaching more illustrious by the name of jesus christ and to proclaim more effectually his divine and infinite power if however we examine the matter more closely we shall find that such a form emits nothing which the savior himself commands to be observed for he who mentions jesus christ implies the person of the father by whom and that of the holy ghost in whom he was anointed and yet the use of this form by the apostles seems rather doubtful if we accept the opinions of ambrose and basil holy fathers eminent for sanctity and authority who interpret baptism in the name of jesus christ to mean the baptism instituted by christ our lord as distinguished from that of john and who say that the apostles did not depart from the ordinary and usual form which comprises the distinct names of the three persons paul also in his epistle to the galatians seems to have expressed himself in a similar manner when he says as many of you as have been baptized in christ have put on christ meaning that they were baptized in the faith of christ but with no other form than that which the same savior our lord had commanded to be observed administration of baptism what has been said on the matter and form which are required for the essence of the sacrament will be found sufficient for the instruction of the faithful but as in the administration of the sacrament the legitimate manner of ablution should also be observed pastors should teach the doctrine of this point also they should briefly explain that according to the common custom and practice of the church baptism may be administered in three ways by immersion infusion or aspersion whichever of these rights be observed we must believe that baptism is rightly administered foreign baptism water is used to signify the spiritual ablution which it accomplishes and on this account baptism is called by the apostle of labor now this ablution is not more really accomplished by immersion which was for a considerable time the practice in the early ages of the church then by infusion which we now see in general use or by aspersion which there is reason to believe was the manner in which peter baptized when on one day he converted and gave baptism to about three 000 souls it is a matter of indifference whether the ablution be performed once or thrice for it is evident from the epistle of saint gregory the great to leander that baptism was formally and may still be validly administered in the church in either way the faithful however should follow the practice of the particular church to which they belong pastors should be particularly careful to observe that the baptismal ablution is not to be applied indifferently to any part of the body but principally to the head which is the seat of all the internal and external senses and also that he who baptizes is to pronounce the sacramental words which constitute the form not before or after but when performing the ablution institution of baptism when these things have been explained it will also be expedient to teach and remind the faithful that in common with the other sacraments baptism was instituted by christ the lord on this subject the pastor should frequently teach and point out that there are two different periods of time which relate to baptism one the period of its institution by the redeemer the other the establishment of the law regarding its reception baptism instituted at christ's baptism with regard to the former it is clear that this sacrament was instituted by our lord when having been baptized by john he gave to water the power of sanctifying saint gregory nate sanzen and saint augustine middle dot testify that to water was then imparted the power of regenerating to spiritual life in another place saint augustine says from the moment that christ is immersed in water water washes away all sins and again the lord is baptized not because he had need to be cleansed but in order that by the contact of his pure flesh he might purify the waters and impart to them the power of cleansing a very strong argument to prove that baptism was then instituted by our lord might be afforded by the fact the most holy trinity in whose name baptism is conferred manifested its divine presence on that occasion the voice of the father was heard the person of the son was present the holy ghost descended in the form of a dove and the heavens into which we are enabled to enter by baptism were thrown open should anyone desire to know how our lord has endowed water with a virtue so great so divine this indeed transcends the power of the human understanding yet this we can know that when our lord was baptized water by contact with his most holy and pure body was consecrated to the solitary use of baptism in such a way however that although instituted before the passion we must believe that this sacrament derives all its virtue and efficacy from the passion which is the consummation as it were of all the actions of christ baptism made obligatory after christ's resurrection the second period to be distinguished that is the time when the law of baptism was made also admits of no doubt holy writers are unanimous in saying that after the resurrection of our lord when he gave to his apostles the command to go and teach all nations baptizing them in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy ghost the law of baptism became obligatory on all who were to be saved this is inferred from the authority of the prince of the apostles when he says who hath regenerated us into a lively hope by the resurrection of jesus christ from the dead and also from what paul says of the church he delivered himself up for it that he might sanctify it cleansing it by the labor of water in the word of life by both apostles the obligation of baptism seems to be referred to the time which followed the death of our lord hence we can have no doubt that the words of the savior unless a man be born again of water and the holy ghost he cannot enter into the kingdom of god refer also to the same time which was to follow after his passion reflection if then pastors explain these truths accurately there can be no doubt that the faithful will recognize the high dignity of this sacrament and venerate it with the most profound piety particularly when they reflect that each of them receives in baptism by the interior operation of the holy ghost the same glorious and most ample gifts which were so strikingly manifested by miracles at the baptism of christ the lord where our eyes like those of the servant of elisis opened to see heavenly things who can be supposed so senseless as not to be lost in rapturous admiration of the divine mysteries of baptism when therefore the riches of this sacrament are unfolded to the faithful by the pastor so as to enable them to behold them if not with the eyes of the body yet with those of the soul illumined by the light of faith may we not anticipate similar results the ministers of baptism in the next place it appears not only expedient but necessary to say who are ministers of this sacrament both in order that those to whom this office is specially confided may study to perform its functions religiously and wholly and that no one outstepping as it were his proper limits may unseasonably take possession of or arrogantly assume what belongs to another four as the apostle teaches order is to be observed in all things bishops and priests the ordinary ministers the faithful therefore are to be informed that of those who administer baptism there are three gradations bishops and priests hold the first place to them belongs the administration of this sacrament not by any extraordinary concession of power but by right of office for to them in the persons of the apostles was addressed the command of our lord go baptize bishops it is true in order not to neglect the more weighty charge of instructing the faithful have generally left its administration to priests but the authority of the fathers and the usage of the church proved that priests exercise this function by their own right so much so that they may baptize even in the presence of the bishop ordained to consecrate the holy eucharist the sacrament of peace and unity it was fitting that they be invested with power to administer all those things which are required to enable others to participate in that peace and unity if therefore the fathers have at any time said that without the leave of the bishop the priest has not the right to baptize they are to be understood to speak of that baptism only which was administered on certain days of the year with solemn ceremonies deacon's extraordinary ministers of baptism next among the ministers are deacons for whom as numerous decrees of the holy fathers attest it is not lawful without the permission of the bishop or priests to administer this sacrament ministers in case of necessity those who may administer baptism in case of necessity but without its solemn ceremonies hold the last place and in this class are included all even the laity men and women to whatever sect they may belong this office extends in case of necessity even to jews infidels and heretics provided however they intend to do what the catholic church does in that act of her ministry these things were established by many decrees of the ancient fathers and councils and the holy council of trent denounces anathema against those who dare to say that baptism even when administered by heretics in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy ghost with the intention of doing what the church does is not true baptism and here indeed let us admire the supreme goodness and wisdom of our lord seeing the necessity of this sacrament for all he not only instituted water than which nothing can be more common as its matter but also placed its administration within the power of all in its administration however as we have already observed all are not allowed to use the solemn ceremonies not that rights and ceremonies are of higher dignity but because they are less necessary than the sacrament let not the faithful however imagine that this office is given promiscuously to all so as to do away with the propriety of observing a certain precedence among those who are its ministers when a man is present a woman should not baptize an ecclesiastic takes precedence over a layman and a priest over a simple ecclesiastic midwives however when accustomed to its administration are not to be found fault with if sometimes when a man is present who is unacquainted with the manner of its administration they perform what may otherwise appear to belong more properly to men the sponsors at baptism besides the ministers who as just explained confer baptism another class of persons according to the most ancient practice of the church is admitted to assist at the baptismal font in former times these were commonly called by sacred writers receivers sponsors or sureties and are now called godfathers and godmothers as this is an office pertaining almost to all the laity pastors should explain it with care so that the faithful may understand what is chiefly necessary for its proper performance why sponsors are required at baptism in the first instance it should be explained why at baptism besides those who administer the sacrament god parents and sponsors are also required the propriety of the practice will at once appear to all if they recollect that baptism is a spiritual regeneration by which we are born children of god for a bit st peter says as newborn infants desire the rational milk without guile as therefore everyone after his birth requires a nurse and instructor by whose assistance and attention he is brought up and formed to learning and useful knowledge so those who by the waters of baptism begin to live a spiritual life should be entrusted to the fidelity and prudence of someone from whom they may imbibe the precepts of the christian religion and may be brought up in all holiness and thus grow gradually in christ until with the lord's help they at length arrive at perfect manhood this necessity must appear still more imperative if we recollect that pastors who are charged with the public care of parishes have not sufficient time to undertake the private instruction of children in the rudiments of faith antiquity of this law concerning this very ancient practice we have this noteworthy testimony of saint dennis it occurred to our divine leaders so he called the apostles and they in their wisdom ordained that infants should be introduced into the church in this holy manner that their natural parents should deliver them to the care of someone well skilled in divine things as to a master under whom as a spiritual father and guardian of his salvation in holiness the child should lead the remainder of his life the same doctrine is confirmed by the authority of hygienism affinity contracted by sponsors the church therefore in her wisdom has ordained that not only the person who baptizes contracts a spiritual affinity with the person baptized but also the sponsor with the god child and its natural parents so that between all these marriage cannot be lawfully contracted and if contracted it is null and void duties of sponsors the faithful are also to be taught the duty of sponsors for such is the negligence with which this office is treated in the church that only the bare name of the function remains while none seem to have the least idea of its sanctity let all sponsors then at all times recollect that they are strictly bound by this law to exercise a constant vigilance over their spiritual children and carefully to instruct them in the maxims of a christian life so that these may show themselves throughout life to be what their sponsors promised in the solemn ceremony on this subject let us hear the words of saint dennis speaking in the person of the sponsor he says i promise by my constant exhortations to induce this child when he comes to a knowledge of religion to renounce everything opposed to his christian calling and to profess and perform the sacred promises which he now makes saint augustine also says i most especially admonish you men and women who have acquired god children through baptism to consider that you stood as sureties before god for those whom you received at the sacred font indeed it preeminently becomes every man who undertakes any office to be indefatigable in the discharge of its duties and he who promised to be the teacher and guardian of another should never allow to be deserted him whom he once received under his care and protection as long as he knows the latter to stand in need of either speaking of this same duty of sponsors saint augustine sums up in a few words the lessons of instruction which they are bound to impart to their spiritual children they ought he says to admonish them to observe chastity love justice cling to charity and above all they should teach them the creed the lord's prayer the ten commandments and the rudiments of the christian religion who may not be sponsors it is easy therefore to decide who are inadmissible to this holy guardianship that is those who are unwilling to discharge its duties with fidelity or who cannot do so with care and accuracy wherefore besides the natural parents who to mark the great difference that exists between this spiritual and the carnal bringing up of you are not permitted to undertake this charge heretics jews and infidels are on no account to be admitted to this office since their thoughts and efforts are continually employed in darkening by falsehood the true faith and in subverting all christian piety number of sponsors the number of sponsors is limited by the council of trent to one godfather or one godmother or at most to a godfather and a godmother because a number of teachers may confuse the order of discipline and instruction and also because it was necessary to prevent the multiplication of affinities which would impede a wider diffusion of society by means of lawful marriage necessity of baptism if the knowledge of what has been hitherto explained be as it is of highest importance to the faithful it is no less important to them to learn that the law of baptism as established by our lord extends to all so that unless they are regenerated to god through the grace of baptism be their parents christians or infidels they are born to eternal misery and destruction pastors therefore should often explain these words of the gospel unless a man be born again of water and the holy ghost he cannot enter into the kingdom of god infant baptism its necessity that this law extends not only to adults but also to infants and children and that the church has received this from apostolic tradition is confirmed by the unanimous teaching and authority of the fathers besides it is not to be supposed that christ the lord would have withheld the sacrament and grace of baptism from children of whom he said suffer the little children and forbid them not to come to me for the kingdom of heaven is for such degree whom also he embraced upon whom he imposed hands to whom he gave his blessing moreover when we read that an entire family was baptized by paul it is sufficiently obvious that the children of the family must also have been cleansed in the saving font circumcision 2 which was a figure of baptism affords strong argument and proof of this practice that children were circumcised on the 8th day is universally known if then circumcision made by hand in the spoiling of the body of the flesh was profitable to children it is clear that baptism which is the circumcision of christ not made by hand is also profitable to them finally as the apostle teaches if by one man's offense death reign through one much more they who receive abundance of grace and of the gift and of justice shall reign in life through one jesus christ if then through the transgression of adam children inherit original sin with still stronger reason can they attain through christ our lord grace and justice that they may reign in life this however cannot be affected otherwise than by baptism pastors therefore should inculcate the absolute necessity of administering baptism to infants and of gradually forming their tender minds to piety by education in the christian religion for according to these admirable words of the wise man a young man according to his way even when he is old he will not depart from it infants receive the graces of baptism it may not be doubted that in baptism infants receive the mysterious gifts of faith not that they believe with the ascent of the mind but they are established in the faith of their parents if the parents profess the true faith if not to use the words of saint augustine then and that of the universal society of the saints for they are rightly said to be presented for baptism by all those to whom their initiation in that sacred right is a source of joy and by whose charity they are united to the communion of the holy ghost baptism of infants should not be delayed the faithful are earnestly to be exhorted to take care that their children be brought to the church as soon as it can be done with safety to receive solemn baptism since infant children have no other means of salvation except baptism we may easily understand how grievously those persons and who permit them to remain without the grace of the sacrament longer than necessity may require particularly at an age so tender as to be exposed to numberless dangers of death baptism of adults with regard to those of adult age who enjoy the perfect use of reason persons namely born of infidel parents the practice of the primitive church points out that a different manner of proceeding should be followed to them the christian faith is to be proposed and they are earnestly to be exhorted persuaded and invited to embrace it they should not delay their baptism unduly if converted to the lord god they are then to be admonished not to defer the sacrament of baptism beyond the time prescribed by the church for since it is written delay not to be converted to the lord and defer it not from day to day they are to be taught that in the regard perfect conversion consists in regeneration by baptism besides the longer they defer baptism the longer are they deprived of the use and graces of the other sacraments by which the christian religion is practiced since the other sacraments are accessible through baptism only they are also deprived of the abundant fruits of baptism the waters of which not only wash away all the stains and defilements of past sins but also enrich us with divine grace which enables us to avoid sin for the future and preserve righteousness and innocence which constitute the sum of a christian life as all can easily understand ordinarily they are not baptized at once on adults however the church has not been accustomed to confer the sacrament of baptism at once but has ordained that it be deferred for a certain time the delay is not attended with the same danger as in the case of infants which we have already mentioned should any unforeseen accident make it impossible for adults to be washed in the salitary waters their intention and determination to receive baptism and their repentance for past sins will avail them to grace and righteousness nay this delay seems to be attended with some advantages and first since the church must take particular care that none approach this sacrament through hypocrisy and dissimulation the intentions of such as seek baptism are better examined and ascertained hence it is that we read in the decrees of ancient councils that jewish converts to the catholic faith before admission to baptism should spend some months in the ranks of the catechumens furthermore the candidate for baptism is thus better instructed in the doctrine of the faith which he is to profess and in the practices of the christian life finally when baptism is administered to adults with solemn ceremonies on the appointed days of easter and pentecost only greater religious reverence is shown to the sacrament in case of necessity adults may be baptized at once sometimes however when there exists a just and necessary cause as in the case of imminent danger of death baptism is not to be deferred particularly if the person to be baptized is well instructed in the mysteries of faith this we find to have been done by philip and by the prince of the apostles when without any delay the one baptized the eunuch of queen candace the other cornelius as soon as they expressed a wish to embrace the faith dispositions for baptism intention the faithful are also to be instructed in the necessary dispositions for baptism in the first place they must desire and intend to receive it for as in baptism we all die to sin and resolve to live a new life it is fit that it be administered to those only who receive it of their own free will and accord it is to be forced upon none hence we learn from holy tradition that it has been the invariable practice to administer baptism to no individual without previously asking him if he be willing to receive it this disposition even infants are presumed to have since the will of the church which promises for them cannot be mistaken insane delirious persons who were once of sound mind and afterwards became deranged having in their present state no wish to be baptized are not to be admitted to baptism unless in danger of death in such cases if previous to insanity they give intimation of a wish to be baptized the sacrament is to be administered without such indication previously given it is not to be administered the same rule is to be followed with regard to persons who are unconscious but if they the insane never enjoyed the use of reason the authority and practice of the church decide that they are to be baptized in the faith of the church just as children are baptized before they come to the use of reason faith besides a wish to be baptized in order to obtain the grace of the sacrament faith is also necessary our lord and savior has said he that believes and is baptized shall be saved repentance another necessary condition is repentance for past sins and a fixed determination to avoid all sin in the future should anyone desire baptism and be unwilling to correct the habit of sinning he should be altogether rejected for nothing is so opposed to the grace and power of baptism as the intention and purpose of those who resolve never to abandon sin seeing that baptism to be sought with a view to put on christ and to be united to him it is manifest that he who purposes to continue in sin should justly be repelled from the sacred font particularly since none of those things which belong to christ and his church are to be received in vain and since we will understand that as far as regards sanctifying and saving grace baptism is received in vain by him who purposes to live according to the flesh and not according to the spirit as far however as the sacrament is concerned if the person who is rightly baptized intends to receive what the church administers he without doubt validly receives the sacrament hence to the vast multitude who in compunction of heart as the scripture says asked him and the other apostles what they should do the prince of the apostles answered do penance and be baptized every one of you and in another place he said be penitent therefore and be converted that your sins may be blotted out writing to the romans saint paul also clearly shows that he who is baptized should entirely die to sin and he therefore admonishes us not to yield our members as instruments of iniquity unto sin but present ourselves to god as those who are alive from the dead advantages to be derived from these reflections frequent reflection upon these truths cannot fail in the first place to fill the minds of the faithful with admiration for the infinite goodness of god who uninfluenced by any other consideration than that of his mercy gratuitously bestowed upon us undeserving as we are a blessing so extraordinary and divine as that of baptism if in the next place they consider how spotless should be the lives of those who have been made the objects of such munificence they cannot fail to be convinced of the special obligation imposed on every christian to spend each day of his life in such sanctity and fervor as if on that very day he had received the sacrament and grace of baptism effects of baptism to inflame the minds of the faithful however with a zeal for true piety pastors will find no means more efficacious than inaccurate exposition of the effects of baptism the effects of baptism should be frequently explained in order that the faithful may be rendered more sensible of the high dignity to which they have been raised and may never suffer themselves to be cast down there from by the snares or assaults of satan first effect of baptism remission of sin they are to be taught in the first place that such is the admirable efficacy of this sacrament that it remits original sin and actual guilt however unthinkable its enormity may seem this was fort told long before by isil through whom god said i will pour upon you clean water and you shall be cleansed from all your filthiness the apostle also writing to the corinthians after having enumerated a long catalogue of sins as such you were but you are washed but you are sanctified that such was at all times the doctrine handed down by holy church is clear by the generation of the flesh says saint augustine in his book on the baptism of infants we contract original sin only by the regeneration of the spirit we obtain forgiveness not only of original but also of actual sins saint jerome also writing to oseaness says all sins are forgiven in baptism to remove all further doubt on the subject the council of trent after other councils had defined this declared it anew pronouncing anathema against those who should presume to think otherwise or should dare to assert that although sin is forgiven in baptism it is not entirely removed or totally eradicated but is cut away in such a manner as to leave its roots still fixed in the soul to use the words of the same holy counsel god hates nothing in those who are regenerated for there remains nothing deserving of condemnation and those who are truly buried with christ by baptism unto death who want not according to the flesh but putting off the old man and putting on the new who is created according to god become innocent spotless pure upright and beloved of god concupiscence which remains after baptism is no sin we must confess however that concupiscence or the fuel of sin still remains as the council declares in the same place but concupiscence does not constitute sin for as saint augustine observes in children who have been baptized the guilt of concupiscence is removed the concupiscence itself remains for probation and in another place he says the guilt of concupiscence is pardoned in baptism but its infirmity remains four concupiscence which is the effect of sin is nothing more than an appetite of the soul and itself repugnant to reason but if it is not accompanied by the consent of the will or by negligence it is very far from being sin when saint paul says i did not know concupiscence if the law did not say thou shalt not covet he speaks not of concupiscence itself but of the fault of the will the same doctrine is taught by saint gregory when he says if there are any who assert that in baptism sin is but superficially effaced what could be more untrue than their statement by the sacrament of faith the soul entirely freed from sin adheres to god alone in proof of this doctrine he has recourse to the testimony of our savior who says in saint john he that is washed needeth not but to wash his feet but is clean holy further proof of the first effect of baptism should anyone desire a striking figure and image of the efficacy of baptism let him consider the history of nem an assyrian leper of whom the scriptures inform us that when he had washed seven times in the waters of the jordan he was so cleansed from his leprosy that his flesh became like the flesh of a child the remission of all sin original and actual is therefore the peculiar effect of baptism that this was the object of its institution by our lord and savior is clearly stated by the prince of the apostles to say nothing of other testimonies when he says do penance and be baptized every one of you in the name of jesus christ for the remission of sins the second effect of baptism remission of all punishment due to sin in baptism not only is sin forgiven but with it all the punishment due to sin is mercifully remitted by god to communicate the efficacy of the passion of christ our lord is an effect common to all the sacraments but of baptism alone does the apostle say that by it we die and are buried together with christ hence holy church has always understood that to impose those works of piety usually called by the holy father's works of satisfaction on one who is to be cleansed in baptism would be injurious to this sacrament in the highest degree nor is there any discrepancy between the doctrine here taught and the practice of the primitive church which of old commanded the jews when preparing for baptism to observe a fast of 40 successive days the fast thus imposed was not enjoined as a work of satisfaction but those who had received baptism were thus admonished to devote some time to the uninterrupted exercise of fasting and prayer in honor of so great a sacrament baptism does not exempt from penalties of the civil law although the remission by baptism of the punishments due to sin cannot be questioned we are not to infer that it exempts an offender from the punishments decreed by civil tribunals for some grave crime thus a person sentenced to death is not rescued by baptism from the penalty ordained by the law we cannot however too highly commend the religion and by any of those rulers who remit the sentence of the law that the glory of god may be the more strikingly displayed in his sacraments baptism remits the punishment due to original sin after death baptism also remits all the punishment due to original sin after this life for through the merit of the death of our lord we are able to attain this blessing by baptism as we have already said we die with christ for if says the apostle we have been planted together in the likeness of his death we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection baptism does not free us from the miseries of life should it be asked why immediately after baptism we are not exempt in this mortal life from misfortunes and restored by the influence of this sacred ablution to that state of perfection in which adam the father of the human race was placed before his fall the answer will be that there are two chief reasons for this in the first place we who by baptism are united to and become members of christ's body should not be more honored than our head now christ our lord although clothed from his birth with the plenitude of grace and truth was not divested of human infirmity which he assumed until having suffered and died he rose to the glory of immortality it cannot appear extraordinary therefore if the faithful even after they have received the grace of justification by baptism are clothed with frail and perishable bodies until having undergone many labors for the sake of christ and having closed their earthly career they are recalled to life and found worthy to enjoy with him in eternity of bliss the second reason why bodily infirmity disease sense of pain and emotions of concupiscence remain after baptism is that in them we may have the seed and material of virtue from which we shall hereafter receive a more abundant harvest of glory and more ample rewards when with patient resignation we bear all the trials of life and aided by the divine assistance subject to the dominion of reason the rebellious desires of the heart we ought to cherish an assured hope that if with the apostle we shall have fought a good fight finished the course and kept the faith the lord the just judge will render to us on that day a crown of justice which is laid up for us such seems to have been the divine plan with regard to the children of israel god delivered them from the bondage of egypt having drowned pharaoh and his hosts in the sea yet he did not conduct them immediately into the happy land of promise he first tried them by a variety and multiplicity of suffering and when he afterwards placed them in possession of the promised land and expelled the previous inhabitants from their native territories yet he left a few other nations whom the israelites could not exterminate in order that his people might always have occasion to exercise fortitude and war-like courage we may add that if to the heavenly gifts with which the soul is adorned in baptism we're joined temporal advantages there would be good reason to doubt whether many might not approach baptism with a view to obtain such advantages in this life rather than the glory to be hoped for in the next whereas the christian should always propose to himself not these delusive and uncertain goods which are seen but the solid and eternal ones which are not seen baptism a source of happiness to the christian even in this life this life however although full of misery does not lack its pleasures and joys to us who by baptism are engrafted as branches on christ's what could be more pleasing or desirable than taking up the cross upon our shoulders to follow him as our leader fatigued by no labor by no danger in ardent pursuit of the rewards of our high vocation some to receive the laurel of virginity others the crown of teaching and preaching some the palm of martyrdom others the honors appropriate to their respective virtues these splendid titles of exalted dignity none of us should receive had we not contended in the race of this calamitous life and stood unconquered in the conflict third effect of baptism grace of regeneration but to return to the effects of baptism it should be taught that by virtue of this sacrament we are not only delivered from what are justly deemed the greatest of all evils but are also enriched with invaluable goods and blessings our souls are replenished with divine grace by which we are rendered just and children of god and are made errors to eternal salvation for it is written he that believeth and is baptized shall be saved and the apostle testifies that the church is cleansed by the labor of water in the word of life now according to the definition of the council of trent which under pains of anatomy we are bound to believe grace not only remits sin but is also a divine quality inherent in the soul and as it were a brilliant light that effaces all those stains which obscure the luster of the soul investing it with increased brightness and beauty this is also a clear inference from the words of scripture when it says that grace is poured forth and also when it usually calls grace the pledge of the holy ghost fourth effect of baptism infused virtues and incorporation with christ this grace is accompanied by a most splendid train of all virtues which are divinely infused into the soul along with grace hence when writing to titus the apostle says he saved us by the labor of regeneration and renovation of the holy ghost whom he hath poured forth upon us abundantly through jesus christ our savior saint augustine an explanation of the words poured forth abundantly says that is for the remission of sins and for abundance of virtues by baptism we are also united to christ as members to their head as therefore from the head precedes the power by which the different members of the body are moved to the proper performance of their respective functions so from the fullness of christ the lord are defused divine grace and virtue through all those who are justified qualifying them for the performance of all the duties of christian piety why the practice of virtue is difficult even after baptism though we are thus supported by a powerful array of virtues it should not excite our surprise if we cannot without much labor and difficulty undertake or at least perform acts of piety and of moral virtue if this is so it is not because the goodness of god has not bestowed on us the virtues from which these good works proceed but because there still remains after baptism a severe conflict of the flesh against the spirit in which however it would not become a christian to be dispirited or grow faint relying on the divine goodness we should confidently hope that by a constant habit of leading a holy life the time will come when whatever things are modest whatever just whatever holy will also prove easy and agreeable let these be the subjects of our willing consideration the objects of our cheerful practice that the god of peace may be with us fifth effect of baptism character of christian by baptism moreover we are sealed with a character that can never be effaced from the soul on this point however we need not speak at length for what we have already sufficiently said on the subject when treating of the sacraments in general may be applied here baptism not to be repeated since on account of the nature and efficacy of this character it has been defined by the church that this sacrament is on no account to be reiterated pastors should frequently and diligently admonish the faithful on this subject lest at any time they may be led into error this doctrine is taught by the apostle when he says one lord one faith one baptism again when exhorting the romans that being dead in christ by baptism they should take care not to lose the life which they had received from him he says in that christ died unto sin he died once these words seem clearly to signify that as christ cannot die again neither can we die again by baptism hence the holy church also openly professes that she believes one baptism that disagrees with the nature of the thing and with reason is understood from the very idea of baptism which is a spiritual regeneration as then by virtue of the laws of nature we are generated and born but once and as saint augustine observes there is no returning to the womb so in like manner there is but one spiritual generation and baptism is never at any time to be repeated in conditional baptism the sacrament is not repeated nor let anyone suppose that it is repeated by the church when she baptizes anyone whose previous baptism was doubtful making use of this formula if thou art baptized i baptize thee not again but if thou art not yet baptized i baptize thee in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy ghost in such cases baptism is not to be considered as impiously repeated but as wholly yet conditionally administered in this connection however there are some matters in which to the very great injury of the sacrament abuses are of almost daily occurrence and which therefore demand the diligent attention of pastors for there are not wanting those who think that no sin is committed if they indiscriminately administer conditional baptism hence if an infant be brought to them they think that no inquiry need be made as to whether it was previously baptized but proceed immediately to baptize the child name or although they'd be well aware that the sacrament was administered at home they do not hesitate to repeat its administration in the church conditionally making use of the solemn ceremonies of the church this certainly they cannot do without sacrilege and without incurring what theologians call an irregularity according to the authority of pope alexander the conditional form of baptism is to be used only when after due inquiry doubts are entertained as to the validity of the previous baptism in no other case is it ever lawful to administer baptism a second time even conditionally sixth effect of baptism opening the gates of heaven besides the other advantages which accrue to us from baptism the last to which all the others seem to be referred is that it opens to us the portals of heaven which sin had closed against us effects of baptism foreshadowed in the baptism of christ these effects which are wrought in us by virtue of baptism are distinctly marked by the circumstances which as the gospel relates accompanied the baptism of our savior the heavens were opened and the holy ghost appeared descending upon christ our lord in the form of a dove by this we are given to understand that to those who are baptized are imparted the gifts of the holy spirit that to them are opened the gates of heaven the baptized it is true do not enter heaven immediately after baptism but in due season when they shall have been freed from all misery which is incompatible with a state of bliss they shall exchange a mortal for an immortal life measure in which those effects are obtained these are the fruits of baptism which if we consider the efficacy of the sacrament are no doubt equally common to all but if we consider the dispositions with which it is received it is no less certain that all do not share to the same extent in these heavenly gifts and graces ceremonies of baptism their importance it now remains to explain clearly and concisely what is to be taught concerning the prayers rights and ceremonies of this sacrament to rights and ceremonies may in some measure be applied what the apostle says of the gift of tongues that it is unprofitable to speak unless the faithful understand they present an image and convey the signification of the things that are done in the sacrament but if the people do not understand the force and meaning of these signs there is but little advantage derived from ceremonies pastors should take care therefore to make them understood and to impress the minds of the faithful with a conviction that although ceremonies are not of absolute necessity they are of very great importance and deserve great veneration this the authority of those by whom they were instituted who were no doubt the apostles and also the object of their institution sufficiently prove it is manifest that ceremonies contribute to the more religious and holy administration of the sacraments serve to place as it were before the eyes the exalted and inestimable gifts which they contain and impress on the minds of the faithful a deeper sense of the boundless beneficence of god three classes of ceremonies in baptism in order that the pastor's instructions may follow a certain plan and that the people may find it easier to remember his words all the ceremonies and prayers which the church uses in the administration of baptism are to be reduced to three heads the first comprehends such as are observed before coming to the baptismal font the second such as are used at the font the third those that usually follow the administration of the sacrament ceremonies that are observed before coming to the font consecration of baptismal water in the first place then the water to be used in baptism should be prepared the baptismal font is consecrated with the oil of mystic unction not however at all times but according to ancient usage only on certain feasts which are justly deemed the greatest and the most holy solemnities in the year the water of baptism was consecrated on the vigils of those feasts and on those days alone except in cases of necessity it was also the practice of the ancient church to administer baptism but although the church on account of the dangers to which life is continually exposed has deemed it expedient to change her discipline in this respect she still observes with the greatest solemnity the festivals of easter and pentecost on which the baptismal water is to be consecrated the person to be baptized stands at the church door after the consecration of the water the other ceremonies that precede baptism are next to be explained the persons to be baptized are brought or conducted a to the door of the church and are strictly forbidden to enter as unworthy to be admitted into the house of god until they have cast off the yoke of the most degrading servitude and devoted themselves unreservedly to christ the lord and his most just authority catechetical instruction the priest then asks what they demand of the church and having received the answer he first instructs them in the doctrines of the christian faith of which a profession is to be made in baptism this the priest does in a brief catechetical instruction a practice which originated no doubt in the precept of our lord addressed to his apostles go ye into the whole world and teach all nations baptizing them in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy ghost teaching them to observe all things whatsoever i have commanded you from this command we may learn that baptism is not to be administered until at least the principal truths of our religion are explained but as the catechetical form consists of many interrogations if the person to be instructed be an adult he himself answers if an infant the sponsor answers for him according to the prescribed form and makes the solemn promise the exorcism the exorcism comes next in order it consists of words of sacred and religious import and of prayers and is used to expel the devil to weaken and crush his power the salt to the exorcism are added other ceremonies each of which being mystical has its own clear signification when for instance salt is put into the mouth of the person to be baptized this evidently means that by the doctrines of faith and by the gift of grace he shall be delivered from the corruption of sin shall experience a relish for good works and shall be delighted with the food of divine wisdom the sign of the cross next his forehead eyes breast shoulders and ears are signed with the sign of the cross to declare that by the mystery of baptism the senses of the person baptized are opened and strengthened to enable him to receive god and to understand and observe his commandments the saliva his nostrils and ears are next touched with spittle and he is then immediately admitted to the baptismal font by this ceremony we understand that as sight was given to the blind man mentioned in the gospel whom the lord after he had spread clay on his eyes commanded to wash them in the waters of silo so through the efficacy of holy baptism a light is led in on the mind which enables it to discern heavenly truth the ceremonies observed after coming to the font after the performance of these ceremonies the persons to be baptized approached the baptismal font at which are performed other rites and ceremonies which present a summary of the christian religion the renunciation of satan three distinct times the person to be baptized is asked by the priest dost thou renounce satan and all his works and all his pomps to each of which he or the sponsor in his name replies i renounce whoever then purposes to enlist under the standard of christ must first of all enter into a sacred and solemn engagement to renounce the devil and the world and always to hold them in utter detestation as his worst enemies the profession of faith next standing at the baptismal font he is interrogated by the priest in these words thus thou believe in god the father almighty to which he answers i believe being similarly questioned on the remaining articles of the creed he solemnly professes his faith these two promises contain it is clear the sum and substance of the law of christ the wish to be baptized when the sacrament is now about to be administered the priest asks the candidate if he wishes to be baptized after an answer in the affirmative has been given by him or if he is an infant by the sponsor the priest immediately performs the salietary ablution in the name of the father and of the son and of the holy ghost as man by yielding the ascent of his will to the wicked suggestions of satan fell under a just sentence of condemnation so god will have none enrolled in the number of his soldiers but those whose service is voluntary that by a willing obedience to his commands they may obtain eternal salvation the ceremonies that follow baptism chrism after the person has been baptized the priest anoints the crown of his head with chrism thus giving him to understand that from that day he is united as a member to christ his head and engrafted on his body and that he is therefore called a christian from christ as christ is so called from chrism what the chrism signifies the prayers then offered by the priest as saint ambrose observes sufficiently explained the white garment on the person baptized the priest then puts a white garment saying receive this white garment which mayest thou carry and stain before the judgment seat of our lord jesus christ that thou mayest have eternal life instead of a white garment infants because not formally dressed receive a white cloth accompanied by the same words according to the teaching of the fathers this symbol signifies the glory of the resurrection to which we are born by baptism the brightness and beauty with which the soul when purified from the stains of sin is invested in baptism and the innocence and integrity which the person who has received a baptism to preserve throughout life the lighted candle a lighted taper is then put into the hand of the baptized to signify that faith inflamed by charity which is received in baptism is to be fed and augmented by the exercise of good works the name given in baptism finally a name is given the person baptized it should be taken from some person whose imminent sanctity has given him a place in the catalogue of the saints the similarity of name will stimulate each one to imitate the virtues and holiness of the saint and moreover to hope and pray that he who is the model for his imitation will also be his advocate and watch over the safety of his body and soul wherefore those are to be reproved who search for the names of heathens especially of those who were the greatest masters of iniquity to bestow upon their children by such conduct they practically prove how little they regard christian piety when they so fondly cherish the memory of impious men as to which to have their profane names continually echo in the ears of the faithful recapitulation this exposition of the sacrament of baptism if given by pastors will be found to embrace almost everything which should be known regarding this sacrament we have explained the meaning of the word baptism the nature and substance of the sacrament and also the parts of which it is composed we have said by whom it was instituted who are the ministers necessary to its administration who should be as it were the tutors whose instructions should sustain the weakness of the person baptized to whom baptism should be administered and how they should be disposed what are the virtues efficacy of the sacrament finally we have developed at sufficient length for our purpose the rights and ceremonies that should accompany its administration pastors should recollect that the chief purpose of all these instructions is to induce the faithful to direct their constant attention and solicitude to the fulfillment of the promises so sacredly made at baptism and to lead lives not unworthy of the sanctity that should accompany the name and profession of christian do so you

Review of the Kammok Roo and Python Straps Too
[Music] I was part of the kamak Kickstart program I was very delighted yesterday to get my kamak hammock in the mail uh along with the uh straps uh the advertising lure says that it's a size of a blowfish I don't know what the size of a blowfish is but I know what the size of an Alene is that gives you a sense of the size of this my first impression is that this is a very substantial hammock this is solid piece right here again the advertising literature says it's about a pound uh that's rounding down on my scale it comes out to be 1 lb 7 and 1/4 o uh for the hammock for the straps it turns out to be uh 11 and half ounces thereabouts um very nice piece of uh equipment put together it has a stuff sack that has an inner bag and an outer bag uh the inner bag uh is made of of the same material as the hammock and has a drop string pulls it tight the outer bag is water resistant um and has these straps on the side which bring down the end of um a roll top to help keep the uh the water out and then here we have uh the inner bag and the pull top and then the hammock pulls out the end of the hammock has a channel sewn into it through the channel through the channel is placed a length of the Spectra cord it's got that solid cord one season henness um it's tied off here with what appears to be a double fisherman's knot and then some sort of larkish sort of knot to contain this uh carbiner which is a little lighter than carbers I'm accustomed to compare this to my Camp I think this a nano 23 um which is a climbing rated my main interest in this hammock is the so-called lunar weave fabric uh turns out to be 70D nylon but with a cross-hatched uh rip stop um it feels different it feels heavier uh it feels quite nice it feels softer uh the two pieces are stitched together with a triple Stitch with some nice interlocking on the back so all in all it looks like a very solid hammock construction python straps a long piece that's doubled over so at this end it's doubled over and then periodically seemingly uh maybe every 6 in or so there are a pair of bar taacs that connect those two pieces that goes all the way down the eventually the B taxs end and then we have a Barac loop at the end and this is the loop that goes around the tree you can tell which end it is it says python strap bring it around the tree bring the rest of the strap through then fetch the hammock and clip it on we have an adjustment Point roughly every 6 in or so and find a spot and uh adjust as needed take this hammock out for a spin so to speak I have to say that I like the feel of this fabric it is definitely different than the feel of any other hammock that I've got I think that this cross-hatched um rip stop is a contributing factor to that the advertising literature calls it soft I guess I could call it soft it's uh certainly different and pleasant to the tactile touch it's uh appropriately sized it's a little wider than the War Bon of traveler but not as wide as an Eno double which is more hammock that I really need but it's my other uh lounging about hamic got a nice armrest the wall you have with you always but it feels good I like this hammock I'm really very interested in finding out what the weight of this fabric is so to determine that I'm going to have to take off non-fabric Bri things so I've liberated the in channel from uh the cord and the which I'm going to want to lose anyway to make this thing lighter and I'm also going to have to take off of this um this nice stuff sack which is more stuff sack than I need so again this is something that I would uh do in any case uh but what I need to do now is do a little seam ripping and then put this on the scale measured the weights of the bodies of three three different hammocks first is a war vonet traveler um this weighed uh 10 oz which works out to be 1.7 ounces per square yard for the traveler very light hammock um I have here something made by Eno um I have been thinking that it's a double although it seems to be considerably narrower than a double but considerably wider than a singleness so I'm not sure what it is that turns out to be almost the same width as as the Rue in any case this weighs a pound the body all the heavy stuff stripped out and that works out to be 2.5 oz per square yard and finally the ru body worked out to be uh 19 and2 Oz and that works out to be 2.75 Oz per square yard and so indeed this turned out to be the heavier um of The Hammocks so let's talk critically about the hammock body now terms of the architecture it's identical to any one of a number of hammocks that come out of some shop in Asia with different labels slapped onto it it's a gathered end hammock with a channel okay uh in terms of the fabric though it's different um the fabric is softer it's heavier um it's definitely smoother than what I feel on my traveler over on the Eno and I like it quite a lot and as we've seen um it's also heavier I think the uh the Checker pattern of the rip stop um would do um a better job of stopping a rip than these other ones although I'm not going to test that particular aspect of the uh the hammock body so all in all you know I think it's a nice body so this really is a nice bag for the hammock construction is good functionality is very nice but it is 54 G of nice bag and when I'm back packing um I want my hammock to stay dry I can put it in a s nylon bag which boys fra a small fraction of this and stick it inside of a pack when uh inside of a dry bag so it's not going to get wet so much as this is a nice bag aesthetically it's not a bag that um I would carry now let's have a look at the python straps when we hold up the python strap against the strap that you get from warbonnet guy with his hammocks or the jacks or the uh the straps that you get from any of the cottage guys um inch polyester solid straps no reported failures this one is a lot more substantive you can just feel it one would like to see some rating with it but just looking at it and knowing that these haven't failed yet means that this is very unlikely to fail a nice uh feature safety feature I think um of this strap is probably the weakest link um would be one of these bar taacs but if you were connected to this bar and it were to give for whatever reason then it would slip uh not very far and be stopped by another BAC that was further down the way and that's a safety feature that you don't get from the others so that's worth noting uh one thing that I did notice um is that in putting this clip onto uh the webbing that uh more often than I would like the webbing would get caught in the little um hook little edge of the uh the where the wire gate goes in and perhaps I would get better at that with time but I found that it was a minor nuisance uh on positive side I found that the adjustability of the hammock was greater than I thought it was going to be given this much distance between the adjustment points on either side of the hammock um I thought that I would need more than that and uh with the few times that I set this up I didn't seem to um so that was okay so all of that said you know this is a nice strap but uh I feel confident with these straps and and looking at ways of shedding weight on this hammock before carrying it around uh I'm going to have to say bye-bye to those python straps they are not going onto the field with me next thing I want to do is look critically at what goes into the end channel here what comes with the Rue is this very substantial looking Spectra stuff uh with a car made especially for cik uh this particular Arrangement weighs uh 30 G that turns out to be 15 G for the and 15 G for this cord now this is solid cord and substantial but hammock forms types knows that am steel can give you equal strength at quite a bit less weight and so a hammock forums person would look at an end Channel like that and say oh well what I want to do is I'm going to use some am steel and here's a am steel cord Loop and I'll put uh something else on there Lark's head on um a descending ring this is climbing rated uh weighs only um 11 G and this cord ring weighs only 2 and 1/2 G and so this is half the weight of this and does essentially the same job which is to give a hard connection now granted this one um gives you a wire gate connection and indeed the difference between this which is 15 G and this which is 11 12 gram is not so great that we couldn't simply put this uh carbiner on this cord Loop and and have essentially the same thing but then all we need to do is to feed this through through so what we want to do is to push that cord Loop all the way through the channel it's been engineered to have just enough room so that we can bring that around ring and now we have a ring where we can attach um other means of uh hanging the hammock such as whoopy slings ordinary cord and have room also for a rid line we can go back at the convol calculation to see how much a slim down tricked out Rue uh would be if we pull out the stops um so we have the body itself all by itself we took the bag off and we took the previous end Channel things off and that's 19 and a/4 ounz and we take those uh Amel cord rings and put on um a descender ring a pair of those weighs an ounce we need tree straps and 5T 6ft tree straps a pair of those we're going to weigh 2 and 1/2 o and then whoopy slings that we can attach to the descender ring and then go up to the tree a pair of those made out of M steel That's rated to 1,000 lbs uh will run maybe 1 and A4 oz so that all totals up uh to 23 o if I've done my sums right so we still need a stuff sack and maybe we'd like to have a ridge line that we can attach to those descending rings as well so we can hand things off of that so let's just among friends add another ounce for all of that and so what we've got is 25 o for a complete uh R based uh H camping hammock compare that to uh the r that I got in the mail which without any kind of suspension at all just in a stuff sack weighed um just 23 and some ounces and so with just a little bit of increase of weight then we get a complete package it should be clear by now that there's a big difference between the segment of the market that the ru is targeting and myself the R is tarting John Q public and what you got here is obsessed with weight I think the value added of the Rue in The Market that it's going after is uh is Assurance you know it is clearly wellb built uh it is clearly high quality uh it makes claims about the weights that it'll support and it looks and feels like it ought to be able to do that so for someone who's coming into hammocking and has a concern about falling down on the ground then these kinds of assurances I think may break them into hammocking and that's that's a good thing uh for me I trust the lighter weight materials that I use and buy from people in our space um much as I like the softness of the fabric of the r uh the 9 plus ounce difference between carrying that on the trail and carrying say the war bondet traveler on the trail just doesn't justify for me so um I like the r I'll keep the r I'll carry the r in a car but when I'm out on the trail um I'm going to take the lightest weight thing that will hold me up and keep me comfortable and the r is not that still it's a nice hammock

San Francisco Before And After The Earthquake | William Henry Irwin | Earth Sciences | Talkingbook
section 1 of San Francisco before and after the earthquake this is a librivox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org recording by david wales san francisco before and after the earthquake by will or 1 section 1 the city that was a requiem of old san francisco part 1 this is a recast of a newspaper article of the same title published in the sun April 21 1906 three days after the visitation came upon San Francisco it is here published by special permission of the Sun for the title I am indebted to Franklin Matthews will win' I'd rather be a busted lamppost on battery street San Francisco burn the Waldorf Astoria will they Britt the old San Francisco is dead the gayest lightest hearted at most pleasure loving city of the Western continent and in many ways the most interesting and romantic is a horde of refugees living among ruins it may rebuild it probably will but those who have known that peculiar city by the Golden Gate have caught its flavor of the Arabian Nights feel that it can never be the same it is as though a pretty frivolous woman had passed through a great tragedy she survives but she is sobered and different if it rises out of the ashes it must be a modern city much like other cities and without its old atmosphere San Francisco lay on a series of hills and the lowlands between these hills are really the end of the coast range of mountains which stretch southward between the interior valleys and the Pacific Ocean behind it is the ocean but the greater part of the town fronts on two sides on San Francisco Bay a body of water always tinged with gold from the great washings of the mountain usually over hung with a haze of magnet sent color changes across the bay to the north lies Mount Tamalpais about 3000 feet high and so close that ferries from the waterfront take one in less than half an hour to the little towns of Sausalito and Belvedere at its foot Tamalpais is a wooded mountain with ample slopes and from it on the north stretch away ridges of forest land the outpost of the great northern woods of Sequoia sempervirens this mountain and the mountainous country to the south bring the real forest closer to San Francisco then to any other American city within the last few years men had killed deer on the slopes of Tamalpais and looked down to see the cable cars crawling up the hills of San Francisco to the south in the suburbs a coyote still stole in and robbed in ruse by night the people lived much out of doors there is no time of the year except a short part of the rainy season when the weather keeps one from the fields the slopes of Tamalpais are crowded with little villas dotted through the woods and these minor estates run far up into the Redwood country the deep coves a Belvedere sheltered by the wind from Tamalpais held a colony of arks or houseboats where people lived in a rather disagreeable summer months coming over to business every day by ferry everything there invites out of doors the climate of California is peculiar it is hard to give an impression of it in the region about San Francisco all the forces of nature work on their own laws there is no thunder and lightning there is no snow except a flurry once in five or six years there are perhaps half a dozen nights in the winter when the thermometer drops low enough so that in the morning there is a little film of ice on exposed water neither is there any hot weather yet most Easterners remaining in San Francisco for a few days remember that they were always chilly for the gate is a big funnel drawing in the winds and the mist which school off the great hot interior valleys of the San Joaquin and Sacramento so the west wind blow steadily 10 months of the year and almost all the mornings are foggy this keeps the temperature steady at about 55 degrees a little cool for the comfort of an unequivocal afore nians used to it hardly ever think of making fires in their houses except in a few days of the winter season and then they rely mainly upon fireplaces this is like the custom of the Venetians and the Florentines give an Easterner six months of it however and he too learns to exist without chill in a steady temperature of little lower than that to which he was accustomed at home after that one goes about with perfect indifference to the temperature summer and winter San Francisco women wear white tailor-made clothes and men wear the same fall weight suits all the year around there is no such thing as a change of clothing for the seasons and after becoming acclimated these people find it hard to bear the changes from hot to cold in the normal regions of the earth perhaps once in two or three years there comes a day when there is no fog no wind and a high temperature in the coast district then follows hot weather perhaps up in the 80s and Californians grumble swelter and rustle for summer clothes these rare hot days are the only times when one sees women in white dresses on the streets of San Francisco along in early May the rains cease at that time everything is green and bright and the great golden poppies as large as the saucer of an after-dinner coffee cup are blossoming everywhere Tamalpais is agreeing to it stop everything is washed and bright by late May a yellow tinge is creeping over the hills this is followed by a golden June and a brown July and August the hills are burned and dry the fog comes in heavily too and normally this is the most disagreeable season of the year September brings a day or two of gentle main and then a change as sweet and mysterious as the breaking of spring in the east passes over the hills the green grows through the brown and the flowers begin to come out as a matter of fact the unpleasantness of summer is modified by the certainty that one can go anywhere without fear of rain and in all the coasts mountains especially the seaward slopes the dews and the shelter of the giant underbrush hold the water so that these areas are green and pleasant all summer in a normal year the rains began to fall heavily in November there will be 3 or 4 days of steady downpour and then a clear and green week December is also likely to be rainy and in this month people enjoy the sensation of gathering for Christmas the mistletoe which grows profusely on the live oaks while the poppies are beginning to blossom at their feet by the end of January the gentle rains come lighter in the long spaces between these winter storms there is a temperature and a feeling in the air much like that of Indian summer in the east January is the month when the roses are at their brightest so much for the strange climate which invites out of doors and which has played its part in making the character of the people the externals of the city are or were for they are no more just as furious one usually entered San Francisco by way of the bay across at yellow Florida covered with the fleet's from the strange seas of the Pacific San Francisco presented itself in a hill panorama probably no other city of the world excepting perhaps Naples could be so viewed at first sight it rose above the passenger as he reached dockage in a succession of hill terraces at one side was Telegraph Hill the end of the peninsula a height so abrupt that it had a 150 foot sheer cliff on its seaward frontage further along lay Nob Hill crowned with the Mark Hopkins mansion which had the effect of a citadel and in later years by the great white Fermo further along was Russian Hill the highest point below was the business district whose low site caused all the trouble except for the modern buildings the fruit of the last ten years the town presented at first sight a disreputable appearance most of the buildings were low and of wood in the middle period of the 70s when a great part of San Francisco was building the newly rich perpetrated some atrocious architecture in that time too everyone put bow windows on his house to catch all of the morning sunlight that was coming through the fog and those little houses with both windows and fancy work all down there fronts were characteristic of the middle-class residents districts then the Italians who tumbled over Telegraph Hill had built as they listed and with little regard for streets and their houses hung crazily on a side Hill which was little less than a precipice the Chinese although they occupied an abandoned business district had remade their dwellings Chinese fashion and the Mexicans and Spaniards had added to their houses those little balconies without which life is not life to a Spaniard yet the most characteristic thing after all was the coloring the sea fog had a trick of painting every exposed object a sea gray which had a tinge of dull green in it this under the leaden sky of a San Francisco morning had a depressing effect on first sight and afterward it became a delight to the eye for the color was soft gentle and infinitely attractive in mass the hills are steep beyond conception we're at Vallejo Street ran up Russian Hill it progressed for four blocks by regular steps like a flight of stairs it is unnecessary to say that no teams ever came up this street or any other like it and grass grew long among the paving stones until the Italians who live there about took advantage of this verbage to pasture a cow or two at the end of four blocks the pavers had given it up and the last stage to the summit was a wine path on the very top a colony of artists lived in little villas of houses whose windows got the whole panorama of the bay luckily for these people cable cars scaled the hill on the other side so that it was not much of a climb to home with these hills with the strangeness of the architecture and with the green grate in jover everything the city fell always into vistas and pictures a setting for the romance which hung over everything which has always hung over life in San Francisco since the podrace came and gathered the Indians about Mission Dolores and it was a city of romance and the gateway to adventure it opened out on the mysterious Pacific the untamed ocean and through the Golden Gate entered China Japan the South Sea Islands lower California the west coast of Central America Australia there was a sprinkling - of Alaska and at Siberia from his windows on Russian Hill one saw always something strange and suggestive creeping through the mists of the bay it would be a South Sea Island brig bringing in copra - takeout cartons and idols a Chinese junk after shark slivers an old Whaler which seemed to drip oil home from a year of cruising in the Arctic even the Windjammers were deep chested craft capable of rounding the horn or of circumnavigating the globe and they came in streaked and picturesque from their long voyages in the orange color dawn which always comes through the mists of that bay the fishing fleet would crawl in under triangular lateen sails for the fishermen of San Francisco Bay are all Neapolitans who have brought their customs and sail with lateen rigs stained and orange brown and shaped when the wind fills them like the ear of a horse along the waterfront the people of these craft met the smelting pod of the races Stephenson called it and this was always the city of his soul there were black Gilbert Islanders almost indistinguishable from the grows lighter kanakas from Hawaii or Samoa last scars in turbans a thick-set Russian sailors wild Chinese with unbraided hair Italian fishermen and tam o'shanter's loud shirts and blue sashes Greeks Alaska Indians little Bay Spanish Americans together with men of all the European races these came in and out from among the queer crafts to lose themselves in the disreputable tumbledown but always mysterious shanties and small saloons in the back rooms of these saloons at South Sea Island traders and captains fresh from the lands of romance whaling masters people who were trying to get up treasure expeditions filibusters Alaskan miners used to meet and trade adventures there was another element until less picturesque and equally characteristic along the waterfront San Francisco was the back Eddy of European civilization one end of the world the Drifters came there and stopped lingered awhile to live by their wits in a country where living after a fashion has always been marvelously cheap these people haunted the waterfront and the Barbary Coast by night and lay by day on the grass in Portsmouth square the square the old plaza about which the city was built Spanish fashion had seen many things there in the first burst of the early days the vigilance committee used to hold its hangings there in the time of the sandlot troubles Denis Kearney who nearly pulled the town down about his ears used to make his orations who set the unruly to rioting in later years Chinatown lay on one side of it and the Latin Quarter and the Barbary Coast on the other on this square the Drifters lay all day long and told strange yarns Stephenson lounged there with them in his time and learned the things which he wove into the wrecker and his South Sea stories and now in the center of the square there stands the beautiful Stevenson monument in later years the authorities put up a Municipal Building on one side of this square and prevented the loungers afford Eason C's sake from lying on the grass since then some of the peculiar character of the old Plaza has gone the Barbary Coast was allowed a bit of Hell no one knows who coined the name the place was simply three blocks of solid dance halls there for the delight of the sailors of the world on a fine busy night every door blared loud dance music from orchestras steam pianos and gramophones and the cumulative effect of the sound which reached the street was a chaos and pandemonium almost anything might be happening behind the swinging doors for a fine and picturesque bundle of names characteristic of the place a police story of three or four years ago was typical hell broke out in the eye wink dancehall the trouble was started by a sailor known as Kanaka piet who lived in the what cheer house over a woman known as iodoform kate Kanaka Pete chased the man he had marked to the little silver dollar where he halted and punctured him the byproduct of his gun that made some holes in the front of the eye wink which were proudly kept as souvenirs and were probably there until it went out in the fire this was lowlife the lowest of the low until the last decade almost anything except the commonplace and the expected might happen to a man on the waterfront the cheerful industry of shanghaiing was reduced to a science a citizen taking a drink in one of the saloons which hung out over the water might be dropped through the floor into a boat or he might drink with a stranger and wake up in the fork isola of his Whaler bound for the Arctic such an incident is the basis of Frank Norris's novel Moran of the lady Lettie and although the novel draws it pretty strong it is not exaggerated ten years ago the police the sailors Union and the foreign consuls working together stopped all this Kearney Street a wilder and stranger bowery was the main thoroughfare of these people and exile California and that morning over the city of his heart has said in a half hour of Kearny Street I could raise a dozen men for any wild adventure from pulling down a statue to searching for the Cocos Island treasure this is hardly an exaggeration it was the Rialto of the desperate Street of the adventurers these are a few of the elements which made the city strange and gave it the glamour of romance which has so strongly attracted such men as Stevenson Frank Norris and Kipling this life of the floating population lay apart from the regular life of the city which was distinctive in itself end of section 1 section 2 of San Francisco before and after the earthquake by will urlan this LibriVox recording is in the public domain section 2 the city that was a requiem of old San Francisco part 2 the Californian is the second generation of a picked and mixed ancestry the merry the adventurous often the desperate always the brave deserted the South and New England in 18-49 to rush around the horn or to drive the perils of the plains they found there a land already grown old in the hands of the Spaniards younger sons of Hidalgo and many of them of the best blood of Spain to a great extent the pioneers intermarried with Spanish women in fact except for a proud little colony here and there the old aristocratic Spanish blood is sunk in that of the conquering race then there was an influx of intellectual French people largely overlooked in the histories of the early days and this Latin leaven has had its influence brought up in a bountiful country where no one really has to work very hard to live nurtured on adventure Zion of a free and merry stock the real native Californian is a distinctive type as far from the Easterner and psychology as the extreme southern is from the Yankee he is easygoing witty hospitable lovable inclined to be unmoral rather than amoral in his personal habits and easy to meet and to know above all there is an art sense all through the populace which sets it off from any other population of the country this sense is almost Latin in its strength and the Californian owes it to the leaven of Latin blood the true California net lingers in the north for Southern California has been built up by long orders from the East and Middle West and his Eastern and character and feeling almost has the Californian developed a racial physiology he tends to size to smooth symmetry of limb and trunk to an erect free carriage and the beauty of his women is not a myth the pioneers were all men of good body they had to be to live and leave descendants the bones of the weaklings who started for El Dorado in 18-49 lie on the plains or in the hill cemeteries of the mining camps heredity began it climate has carried it on all things that grow in California tend to become large plump luscious fruit trees grown from cuttings of Eastern stock produce fruit larger and finer if coarser in flavor than that of the parent tree as the fruits grow so the children grow a normal healthy Californian woman plays out of doors from babyhood to old age the mixed stock has given her that regularity of features which goes with a blend of bloods the climate has perfected and rounded her figure out of doors exercised from earliest youth has given her a deep bosom the cosmetic myths have made her complexion soft and brilliant at the University of California where the student body is nearly all native the gymnasium measurements show that the girls are a little more than two inches taller than their sisters of Vassar and Michigan the greatest beauty show on the continent was the Saturday after man a parade in San Francisco women in so-called society took no part in dysfunction it belonged to the middle class but the upper classes have no monopoly of beauty anywhere in the world it had grown to be independent of the matinees from 2 o'clock to half-past five a solid procession of Diana's Eve's and a Juno's passed and re-passed along the five blocks between Market and Powell and Sutter and Kearney the line of San Francisco's Lange along the open front cigar stores a characteristic of the town gilded youth of the cocktail route gathered in knots to watch them there was something Latin in the spirit of this ceremony it resembled church parade in Buenos Aires Latin - were the gay costumes of the women who dressed brightly in accord with the city and the climate this a gaiety of costume was the first thing which the eastern woman noticed and disapproved give her a year and she too would be caught by the infection of daring dress in this parade of tall deep was him the gleaming women one caught the type and longed it sometimes for the sight of a more ethereal beauty for the suggestion of soul within which belongs to a New England woman on whom a hard soil has bestowed a grudge atubu T for the mobility the fire which belongs to the French woman the second generation of France was in this crowd it is true but climate and exercise had grown above their spiritual charm a cover of a brilliant flesh it was the beauty of Greece with such people life was always gay if the fairly Parisian gaiety did not display itself on the streets except in the matinee parade it was because the winds made open-air cafes disagreeable at all seasons of the year the life careless went on indoors or in the hundreds of pretty estates ranches the Californians called them which fringed the city San Francisco was famous for its restaurants and cafes probably they were lacking at the top probably the very best for people who do not care how they spend their money was not to be had but they gave the best fare on earth for the price at a dollar seventy five cents a half dollar or even fifteen cents if one should tell exactly what could be had at Copas for fifty cents or at the fashion for say 35 no New Yorker who has not been there would believe it the San Francisco French dinner and the San Francisco free lunch whereas the Public Library to Boston or the stockyards to Chicago a number of causes contributed to this the country all about produced everything that a cook needs and that in abundance the bay was an almost untapped fishing pond the fruit farms came up to the very edge of town and the surrounding country produced in abundance fine meets game all cereals and all vegetables but the chefs who came from France in the early days and stayed because they liked this land of plenty were the head in front of it they passed on their art to other Frenchmen or to the clever Chinese most of the French chefs that the biggest restaurants were born in Campton China later the Italians learning of this country where good food is appreciated came and brought their own style householders always dined out one or two nights of the week and boarding houses were scarce for the unattached preferred the restaurants the eating was usually better than the surroundings meals that were marvels were served and tumbledown little hotels most famous of all the restaurants was the poodle dog there have been no less than four establishments of this name beginning with a-frame shanty where in the early days prints of French cooks used to exchange raghu's for gold dust each succeeding restaurant of the name has moved further down town and the recent poodle dog stands stands or stood one mixes his tenses clearly in writing of this city which is and yet is more on the edge of the tenderloin in a modern a five-story building and a typify dass Urton spirit that there was in san francisco for on the ground floor was a public restaurant where there was served the best dollar dinner on earth at least if not the best at ranked with the best and the others were in San Francisco there especially on Sunday night almost everyone went to vary the monotony of home cooking everyone who was anyone in the town could be seen there off and on it was perfectly respectable a man might take his wife and daughter to the Pluto dog on the second floor there were private dining rooms and to dine there with one or more of the opposite sex was risque but not especially terrible but the third floor and the fourth floor and the fifth the elevator man of the poodle dog who had held the job for many years and who never spoke and I spoken to war diamonds and was a heavy investor in real estate there were others as famous in their way the zinc and aware at one time everyone went after the theater and Tate's which has lately bitten into that trade the palace grill much like the grills of Eastern hotels except for the price Delmonico's which ran the poodle dog neck and neck to its own line and many others humbler but great at the price listen Oh II starved amid plenty to the tale of the Hotel de France this restaurant stood on California Street just east of old st. Mary's Church one could throw a biscuit from its back windows into Chinatown it occupied a big ramshackle house which had been a mansion of the gold today's Lewis the proprietor was a Frenchman of the bar P Rene and his accent was as thick as his peasant soups the patrons were French men of the poorer class or young and poor clerks and journalists who had discovered the delights of his hostelry the place exude a genial gaiety of which Lewis throwing out familiar jokes to right and left as he mixed salads and carry dishes was the head and front first on the bill affair was the soup mentioned before thick and clean and good next one of Louis's three cherubic little sons brought on a course of fish soul rock cod flounders or smelt with a good French sauce the third course was meat this came on on block the waiter dropped in the center of each table a big roast or boiled to joint together with a mustard pot and two big dishes of vegetables each guest manned the carving knife in turn and helped himself to his satisfaction after that louis with an air of ceremony brought on a bigger bowl of excellent salad which he had mixed himself for beverage there stood by each plate a perfectly cylindrical pint glass filled with new watered claret the meal closed with fruit in season all that the guests cared to eat I have saved a startling fact to close the paragraph the price was 15 cents if one wanted black coffee he paid the five cents extra and Louis brought on a beer glass full of it why he threw in wine and charged extra for after-dinner coffee was one of Louis's professional secrets adulterated food at that price not a bit of it the olive oil and the salad was pure California product why adulterate when he could get it so cheaply the wine too was above reproach for Louis made it himself every autumn he brought tons and tons of cheap mission grapes set up a wine press in his backyard and had a little festival vintage of his own the fruit was small and inferior but fresh and Louis himself and speaking of his business said that he wished his guests would eat nothing but fruit it came so cheap the city never went to bed there was a no closing law so that the saloons kept open nights and Sundays at their own sweet will most of the cafe is elected to remain open until two o'clock in the morning at least this restaurant life however does not express exactly the careless pleasure-loving character of the people in great part their pleasures were simple inexpensive and out of doors no people were fonder of expeditions into the country of picnics which might be brought off in almost any season of the year and of long tours in the great mountains and forests hospitality was nearly a vice as in the early mining days if they liked the stranger the people took him in at the first meeting the San Francisco man had em put up at the club at the second he invited him home to dinner as long as the stranger stayed he was being invited to weekend to parties at ranches to little dinners in this or that restaurant and to the houses of his new acquaintances until his engagements grew beyond hope of fulfillment perhaps there was rather too much of this kind of thing at the end of a fortnight a stranger with a pleasant smile and a good story left the place a wreck this tendency ran through all grades of society except perhaps the sporting people who kept the tracks and the fighting game alive these also met the stranger and also took him in centers of man hospitality were the clubs especially the famous bohemian and the family the letter was an offshoot of the bohemian it had been growing fast and vying with the older organization for the honour of entertaining pleasing and distinguished visitors the Bohemian Club whose real founder is said to have been the late Henry George was formed in the 70s by newspaper writers and men working in the arts or interested in them it had grown to a membership of 750 it still kept for its nucleus of painters writers musicians and actors amateur and professional they were a gay group of men and hospitality was there a vocation yet the thing which set this club off from all others in the world was the midsummer high the club owns a fine tract of redwood forests 50 miles north of San Francisco on the Russian River there are two varieties of big trees in California the Sequoia G John SIA and the Sequoia sempervirens the great trees of the Mariposa Grove belonged to the giganteus species the sempervirens however reaches the diameter of 16 feet and some of the greatest trees of this species are in the Bohemian Club Grove it lies in a cleft of the mountains and up one hillside there runs a natural out-of-doors stage of remarkable acoustic properties in August the whole Bohemian Club or such as could get away from business went up to this Grove and camped out for two weeks on the last night they put on the jinks proper a great spectacle and praise of the forest with poetic words music and effects done by the club in late years this has been practically a mask or an opera it cost about $10,000 it took the spare time of scores of men for weeks yet these 750 businessmen professional men artists newspaper workers struggled for the honor of helping out on the jinx and the whole thing was done naturally and with reverence it would not be possible anywhere else in this country the thing which made it possible was the art spirit which is in the California it runs in the blood who's who in America is along on the arts and on learning and comparatively weak in business and the professions now someone who has taken the trouble has found that more persons mentioned in whose schoo by the thousand of the population were born in Massachusetts than in any other state but that Massachusetts is crowded closely by California with the rest know where the institutions of learning in Massachusetts account for her preeminence the art spirit does it for California the really big men nurtured our California influence are a few perhaps but she has sent out an amazing number of good workers in painting in authorship in music and especially in acting high society in San Francisco had settled down from the rather wild spirit of the middle period it had come to be there a good deal as it is elsewhere there was much wealth and the hills of the Western Addition were growing up with fine mansions outside of the city at Burlingame there was a fine Country Club centering a region of Country Estates which stretched out to Menlo Park this club had a good polo team which played every year with teams of English men from Southern California and even with teams from Honolulu the foreign quarters are worth an article in themselves chief of these of course Chinatown of which everyone has heard whoever heard of San Francisco a district six blocks long and two blocks wide housed 30,000 Chinese when the quarter was full the dwellings were old business blocks of the early days but the Chinese had added to them had rebuilt them had to run out their own balconies and entrances and had given the quarter that feeling of huddled irregularity which makes all Chinese built dwellings fall naturally into pictures not only this they had burrowed to a depth of a story or two under the ground and through this ran passages in which the Chinese transacted their dark and devious affairs as the smuggling of opium the traffic in slave girls and the settlement of their difficulties in the last five years there was less of this underground life than formerly for the Board of Health had a cleanup some time ago but it was still possible to go from one end of Chinatown to the other through secret underground passages the tourists who always included Chinatown in his itinerary saw little of the real quarter the guys gave him a show by actors hired for his benefit in reality the place amounted to a great deal in a financial way there were clothing and cigar factories of importance and much of the Pacific right tea and silk importing was done in the hands of the merchants who numbered as several millionaires mainly however it was a tenderloin for the house servants of the city for the San Francisco tiny'mon was seldom a laundry man he was too much in demand at fancy prices as a servant the Chinese live their own lives in their own way and settled their own quarrels with the revolvers of their high binders there were two theaters in the quarter a number of rich jazz houses three newspapers and a Chinese telephone exchange there is a race feeling against the Chinese among the working people of San Francisco and no white man except the very lowest outcasts lived in the quarter on the slopes of Telegraph Hill dwelt the Mexicans and Spanish in low houses which they had transformed by balconies into a semblance of Spain above and streaming over the hill were the Italians the tenement Quarter of San Francisco shown by contrast with those of Chicago and New York for while these people lived in old and humble houses they had room to breathe and an eminence for light and air their shanty squonk to the side of the hill or hung on the very edge of the precipice overlooking the bay on the verge of which a wall kept their babies from falling the effect was picturesque and this hill was the delight of painters it was all more like Italy than anything in the Italian Quarter of New York and Chicago the very climate and surroundings the wine country close at hand the bay for their lateen boats helped them over by the ocean and surrounded by cemeteries in which there are no more burials there is an eminence which is topped by two peaks and which the Spanish of the early days named after the breasts of a woman the unpoetic Americans had renamed it Twin Peaks at its foot was a Mission Dolores the last mission planted by the Spanish Padres in their march up the coast and from these hills the Spanish looked for the first time upon the golden Bay years ago someone set up at the summit of this peak a 60-foot cross September wants a high wind blew it down and the women of the fair family then had it restored so firmly that it would resist anything it has risen 450 years above the gay careless luxuriant and lovable City and full view from every eminence and from every Valley it stands tonight above the desolation of ruins the Bonnie Mary City the good grace it II oh that one who has mingled the wine of her bounding life with the wine of his youth should live to write the obituary of old San Francisco end of section 2 section 3 of San Francisco before and after the earthquake by will or hwon this LibriVox recording is in the public domain section 3 the city that is written for the call by will urlan will ruin a San Franciscan in exile at the time of the 1906 disaster wrote and published in the New York Sun under the title the city that was a magnificent tribute to the old town he sprinkled the ashes with his tears the article in book form became widely known in the literature of the catastrophe today his tears long since forgotten mr. Irwin pays a different sort of tribute to the city that he loves I first came into the new San Francisco in August 1907 during the era of rebuilding I returned I remember to weep I was in the condition that mourning of a man preparing for a sentimental jag I parted at the Oakland mul with my trained friends of the Overland a journey I wanted to go to my sorrow alone as I sat by the front rail of the odhh watching that indescribable swell of the bay surged down on us I was startled by a laugh beside me I turned with a feeling of indignation it was unseemly mirth at a Funeral I had to shake myself to remember that these people had been dwelling in crushed San Francisco for a year and that a year is a long time to pack around any grief there they were a talking business reading their newspapers flirting with their girls I I alone was living through a new grief I looked at the bear hill below the Fairmont at the bump where the Hopkins Institute used to crown the Citadel of the town and got ready to share that not unmanly tears when I should stand in the midst of that ruin and wreckage at the station I waved aside the Omnibus and prepared to walk up through the wreck of dear old scenes alone I might have wept there it was the only chance I had as it turned out but for a fellow I knew we fell into each others arms before I had fairly wrenched away he had pulled the blueprint on me ten stories concrete he said see her up there that skeleton on battery Street you remember the old three-story shack bill honest I'm glad she burned down ain't that the greatest sight that ever was and he pointed up Market Street there it was a city rising market street torn up - it's very entrails a forest of steel skeletons as far as the I carried the Donoghue fountain in appropriate setting for once fringed with bricks and mortar and girders a chorus of ratchets making music on steel as we stood there watching a news voice shoved a paper in my face and made jesting remarks as San Francisco news boys will do on the shape of my hat a man in overalls rolled up and addressed me not with the professional wine of the Eastern pen blur but with the democracy of the unrivaled Pacific Coast product you look like a nice young fellow if you do have a funny face he said in effect say I'm just in from Bellingham beat out of my pay and want two bits for a drink as I came across a sound of music pierced the noise of the ratchets beside the ferry entrance a sand fest park picnic had stacked up waiting for transportation girls and white dresses and white caps men in white trousers and sashes details of ribbond gains and official badges and baskets and plump mothers and noisy babies there it was just as though the town had not burned down that touch finished me I turned to the fellow I knew he recalled to me yesterday what I said hell no I doubt that introductory word but he says I slipped it in my excitement this would be the same old town if they moved it to the top of Mount Hamilton and my not unmanly tears are unshared to this day never did I notice any difference in the people either then or now they remained the same easy lovable open-minded sulfites that they were when the line ran from the Baldwin to Bush that they were when a Denis Kearney ran the sand blots that they were doubtless when the two original inhabitants sat on the Bayshore at Montgomery Street and alternately divided their food supply and worked politics on each other over the division of town Watts they changed their roofs above them but not their hearts but the new city on its physical aspect has been a matter of deep and personal concern to exiled Californians we have debated upon it with a horror less our builders would remake San Francisco on the pattern of one of those middle Western cities which seemed to have been ordered by the size from Grand Rapids ugly as were the old buildings of the downtown district in detail their massing and their coloring of a greenish gray from accumulated CMOS made them a curiously attractive in mass the artist appreciated this consciously and I suppose that the passionate devotion to San Francisco in the mass of northern Californians was due in part to an unconscious appreciation of this hidden beauty new buildings and a porcelain bathtubs and 20th century plumbing were all very well we told each other but with the new city run also to castile soap pillars and gilded a plaster and pressed glass mirrors it was a great thing to have a fine new business equipment and to be mistress of the Pacific but could there be anything of the old physical charm about the modern San Francisco the miracle has happened modern architects have built the new city out of modern materials on modern plans and the external charm of the place remains it is just as hard to say why as it ever was to explain the allurement of San Francisco for the eye much of the new architecture is good most of it is passable a very little is as bad as that old fancy work architecture of San Francisco which Gillette Burgess used to satirize as chaos Avenue on the whole it is certainly better work and than any Eastern city would erect were a called upon to rebuild that is a tribute not so much to our architects as to their clients nowhere in the United States is the Arts and so general among people of means as in San Francisco if our builders here have nearly worked out a new American school in the adaptation of the redwood bungalow style to city uses the people in general deserve half the thanks it is a wonderful new city with all its old distinction saved it becomes now my mission to dry the tears of exiled Californians there are only five American cities which stand apart from the rest for appearance Boston New York Charleston New Orleans and San Francisco we are preserved forever in that column now for example I had done a lot of worrying about the crest of Russian Hill as seen from the southeast I heard that buildings were going up fast in that district they'll ruin it I said I came up Taylor Street last Monday in the Twilight and found that they had not ruined Russian yellow they had made it nowhere in the United States is there a Vista so satisfying to the eye so suggestive of romance has that summit as seen from Taylor and Broadway I remembered then the old picture of gray rooftops and at lanes of yellow white which we used to admire from our windows on Russian Hill I looked down there was only one change in the picture what had been gray was now white and beyond that eternal among these changes of man was that Golden Bay with its surge as of a river and its distant lights that and the hills and the mists would make us distinctive I suppose were we to replace our buildings by Patterson New Jersey or Chelsea Massachusetts it is a larger city a more convenient City and since it is also a more beautiful and more distinctive City I announce myself a complete convert this city that was business is the old stuff end of section 3 the city that is end of San Francisco before and after the earthquake by will our one

MoFoCThat Review?! : Mega Bloks Marvel Series 3 1st try
hello there to another rendition of mofo see that review i'm also siva and today we're looking at mega bloks marvel series three blind packs so on this series i skipped the other two because half of them were figures i did not want that much but this series this is my favorite series because we have um jim lee jim lee's rendition of cyclops i think that's generally renditional cyclops sandman silver surfer magneto reese reed richard richards or mr fantastic depending on what you want to call him um here we have havoc our mystery figure if anyone can tell us tell me down below what it is please go ahead and do so iceman and spiderman uh i haven't been reading the comics at all but i know for sure this is the stealth spider-man suit that can change uh colors this is um before he got the future foundation suit i know for that for a fact because i read the first issue of the future foundation get some scissors so i can actually open up the bloody packaging i'll just open all them halfway since because some reason even though this is marketing for kids there is no uh pre-cut place for any kids just rip it apart you would think they would do that since this most companies market market toys for kids that's pretty sh lazy of them i'll just open these about half 75 75 of the way there so i can stuff my giant hand down there now since i bought um three of these i would like to have each one be sep figures that i like so oh since i don't know what mystery figures i definitely can't include it in my top three i'm gonna do top three since i do not since i only have three oh go from third to first i would go okay it's a tie between the silver surfer and iceman since they're just basically the same body struck body but they just translucent silver paint second would be jim lee's cyclops and my first choice would be a stealth suit of spider-man so i know for a fact that there is like a paper in here so i'll just i'm not going to take a look but definitely smells like plastic so i'm going to take all the i'm not looking at the figures yet so i'm just going to take it bloody look at the package it's a good thing i did 75 or else i wouldn't been able to get the damn things out so yeah i i know these are basically the same thing so just go with the bigger ones and this was folded differently than the other two so i'll go with a larger one so i'll just move over to this side and i'll open it all right so first off let's go review um the first one green goblin black suit actually i would rather hand find series one so funny they spot siri wrong green goblin black spider-man war machine armored spider-man spider-man rinse fireman venom okay i would have liked to have the first series because most of these characters i would want and i would rather have doubles of these instead youtube will rain thor lowkey drones whiplash okay so this was the movie one and you focus more on iron man and thor all the movie characters of course since ravine hasn't starred in a movie in a while he has to be the bloody rare one whatever green goblins foreign so let's see who is rare so okay so this is good all of these miss fantastic comes with a bloody gun um it's okay so these uh are common so i'll probably get doubles of these but silver surfer is the freaking rare one okay i can i can live but cyclops and stuff spiderman are the rare ones damn damn damn damn i'm gonna keep buying these until i get them i don't know what these statistics are of me getting them but i will definitely get them by as many as i can get the ones i want and that's probably all this wave okay so so i'm gonna see which one right now i'll take this one these ahead right here now let's see if i can identify it by the arm this is a leg so this is either stealth spider-man or havoc let's take another block this is havoc this is most definitely havoc i can tell ryder bloody away that was havoc ah man okay whatever havoc yeah that looks alright he's all right character let's go through the articulation where we go there's a hole in the back so if any character is his backpack you can just do it he has weird articulation the outer waist joint can move but so can this joint independently i think it would be better if they molded this be just one piece so the legs can go like this look really but whatever let's attach the legs in this is just basic articulation in the knee my god this is very cool okay because of the angle the feet you can only do something like this so if you just would have like made like a free block that would have been either stand so you don't have all this extra space on the side whatever but basic articulation in the elbow and there is a whis swivel is all happens to be in any lego and other lines related again there is this weird energy flame weapon that kind of looks like hair it's like if phoenix had flaming you know it rather looks like ghost rider when he had the blue flame on him that's weird okay so the arm cannot go a lot it just goes about that way the leg i'm leg can go this much out this much in so it's out this much in so it's kind of human proportioned as far as how far limbs go but here's the havoc's head which really reminds me a lot of gambit because of his eyes and his mask style so let's do this pop this hit on as expected it has full articulation so i'll just uh let's see it's like an er to me but all right all right i can live with havoc that was a pretty good figure so i'll leave that to the side and i will go back over here and get a limb out if i can find a plan whatever oh this is interesting a translucent green block and for what i've seen from uh the review spot review of series two the block matches one of the characters basic color or one of their secondary colors and i'm pretty sure this is a secondary color but guess what i got oh i'm so excited let's just dump this out right now i'm so freaking excited i've got the um the the stealth suit spider-man which is so freaking awesome so awesome right now i'm so i'm so elated i'm very elated i'm so happy i can only express it to you very large words so pretty nice it's like oh my god so happy i'm so happy i i've got my number one choice it is bloody fantastic i've got my number one choice within my first spa i am so freaking happy i'm so happy and it would know would have been cooler if this was glow in the dark because it's this light green if you close in the dark like it does in the comics i've been so awesome too but whatever whatever oh oh oh imagine two if this the entire body was actually translucent and it just painted it all black and you could have like lights under here and like glowed up and then like oh it's exploding oh my god okay that is a custom i'm gonna do when i can do a master mode of this then uh make a a color that will make it trans oh an opaque green color oh this is actually pretty rubbery i'm guessing this might be his what what is webbing supposed to look at when he comes out looks more like a whip like if it was one of whiplash's whip because it looks like it goes in here but i'm just gonna try push it up like this and maybe um i already spent half of a half hour just just on two of these so i'm very excited i have stealth spider-man i'm very bloody happy now if i get the freaking mystery figure i am going to be going all out of my bloody mind let's put the black out it's another black one so it could be some other figures it's a black leg here's another leg i duck i got a duplicate okay i gotta duplicate havoc this review because it says right here he's uh he's pretty damn common so whatever at least i got my number one pick for this wave so since my luck was already so good i'm gonna buy another one and i hope i can get at least the rest of this top wave and maybe these three figures here in these three figures here so i can get um oh yeah this one is mainly on the x-men so in that car yeah so i can have silver surfer and mr fantastic again him and him and then i can have bobby team up peter since they were in their roommates i think because i remember that old animated series where him spidey and another mutant fire star i think her name was firestar that as college roomies have him and him fighting sandman him and him fighting him and him these two fighting who knows that that's that's a pretty good haul i can say so i'm pretty happy uh that i got him so i'll just i'll get havoc back in front now this was multiple thing then i would be perfectly happy getting duplicates uh but i think i'll get i'll give one of my friends him havoc so i'm gonna oh when i see him in school again so i'll try again on monday and then we'll see how my luck fares next time so i am mofo see that uh stay tuned for more and always thank you

The Ultimate Guide to Silica Drying Flowers at Home - How to Dry Your Florals/Wisedry
today i have a rustic fall decor piece using dried flowers i did on my own i'm brandy and this is making it my own [Music] today i am working with a product called wise dry it is flower drying silica gel crystals i was sent a five pound bag to try out and give my honest opinion so that is what i'm going to do today i want to show you how to make a pretty little arrangement so the package comes just like this it has a zip top so you can just rip the top off and then open it up it is sealed separately in a bag and then your instruction manual is inside as well so it came very securely to me and here you're gonna find all of your instructions and there are colored pictures in here so it's very easy to follow these directions you can even use these crystals again they can be reactivated which is wonderful for the environment so i'm going to use this bouquet that my husband went and got me they are i think this is an orange daisy a little bit of wildflower spray in there and then some fern pieces in the back [Music] you can see how vibrant the orange and the yellow is and i've decided that i'm only going to work with the yellow pieces and the orange pieces today because i thought these would be nice to put in a fall arrangement i wanted to do a small arrangement to put on my desk so this will be for myself and i'm just going to follow the direct directions and take off anything that does not need to be there then take off the stems and the wires that are used by the florist here and then you can take off any excess greenery that you would like i'm just going to separate the blue take that out i'll dry those separately for another project and then the green will go just outside and it can be composted back into the ground [Music] so there we go you have to make sure that all your pieces are dry be sure that you follow your directions and here are the things we're going to need for the conventional drying method which i am trying today okay so after everything's trimmed up the way it should be i'm going to put these down in a bowl that will seal and i'm going to cover them completely with my silica crystals i'm going to take my lid put it on and put it aside i'm gonna wait four days there is a time limit that you should wait and check it and then we're gonna start seeing what kind of treasures we can find down in these little bits and pieces this is a sand like texture it's not sticky if that kind of thing bothers you it is not sticky at all just feels like sand to me okay so i'm gently taking it out i'm using the fluffy brush which was recommended a soft brush and just brushing away any of the little crystals that may be settling down inside of the little flower caps and this yellow stuff i'm not sure what it's called but i know that we live in the country and this does something similar to this grows on the side of the road what do you think this is is this goldenrod okay so i'm just going to continue along we're going to do each one the stem all the way down the flowers the back side of the flower heads and in the front part they're really not that noticeable you can see when i pull it out when you look at it you can't really see those pieces as it is but we're going to clean it up to make it have a nice presentation and there's my fourth one just brushing that all off and it's very sturdy i was surprised and happy to see that everything is staying in place so now it's time that we're going to get those daisies out this part scared me a little i really did not want to damage these so i'm just gonna shake it very very carefully and then use that brush and start getting the little bits you can see little bits out of that little spiky section in the back of the flower and then there's the front notice the color change this is like a rusty orange or yeah i would have to say like a rusty red or orange color really really pretty i was surprised but it's going to be perfect for what i'm going to be making okay so here is the ups this is the last flower and it had to be a problem well maybe i was too aggressive pulling it out who knows but we're just going to put those aside and we're going to save them because i always try to salvage anything that i craft with anything that i use and i think i can fix this so we're going to give it a good dusting there there's where i lost my my little flower petals and just set it down like that and save my little petals [Music] all right so i can put the lid back on set this aside clean it up and use it again at a later date we're going to need some things for these flowers and we're going to need some pieces for our arranging so this is a thrifted pick that i have but it looks like it came from hobby lobby originally i didn't pay anywhere near five dollars for that it's very pretty i like these colors i think it gives it a very nice rustic and cottagey look this beautiful handmade mug look at this it is stunning i found this also at goodwill i don't know who made it but oh it's stunning and i'm going to take a little foam floral ball i'm going to use just a little glue because at some point when i take this apart i want to be able to use this cup to drink out of i'm going to have my coffee in it or maybe some tea with honey okay so i'm gonna press that down in the bottom until it gets nice and set we're gonna use pieces of a hula skirt from dollar tree you're just gonna pull apart spool some around your hand almost like you're making a little bird's nest you're going to twist and twist and pull and then trim it off and we're going to use this to go right on top of that foam now if you have some moss you can certainly use that if you have some type of greenery that you want to use you can use that paper shreds would work as well here whatever you have on hand is usually going to be the best thing it's going to save you the money okay we're all about saving money on this channel hey follow me on my social media pinterest facebook and instagram all right now we got our base laid down and we gotta find some way to make these flowers presentable so that we can put them down inside this arrangement i'm going to use some floral wire you can get this pretty much anywhere floor wire you can i'm pretty sure you can get that at dollar tree as well i've got some pieces of floral picks that i have not used but i always save them because they are really handy for these projects i'm going to use this to make the stem sturdier so that it can be poked down in the foam because as is it's not going to go down in that foam it's um you know it's a part of a living thing and it will crumble away and we don't want that to happen so we're going to reinforce it with a piece of these picks and a piece of floral wire and then we're going to use some glue in a moment and really give it some sturdiness [Music] same thing here and really you only need about probably five inches of the wire for each one of these if you don't have the wire you can certainly use something like um floral tape if you have that that would definitely work here you just need some means to attach a wire stem to your woody stem and then i'm going to add a little bit of hot glue just to make sure that it doesn't slip out while we're trying to get it arranged and as it dries i'm just going to balance it on the edge of that cup so that it doesn't stick down to my table you see what i'm doing there just kind of casing it in just like that and we're going to do all four of these yellow pieces this way certainly wear some gloves if you've got sensitive skin if you're afraid you might poke your finger you know protect yourself and there we go again [Music] you can see what i'm doing okay now so once all those are sitting over there and the glue is drying we're going to work on giving some new stems to these flowers we're going to take just a piece of this thicker wire that i have and it does have some type of um i know trim or something around it makes it a little bit thicker and it's actually a softer wire i'm going to twist it around my finger and flatten it out this is going to make a little platform that we can put on the glue on the back of the flower and we can still rotate that head around a little bit so that it doesn't have to stand straight out we want to be able to move things around and the wire gives us that advantage so once we get that those little stands made we're just going to put some glue on the back and place them on the back of the flowers [Music] just like so now if you want to you can put a little piece of something on top a little piece of ribbon or whatever you need to make that more secure but i found that i really didn't need to do that now just with a little bit of hot glue i'm going to start adding my petals back in and they're sticking together so here we go just going to add them back in and it will close in that gap it's not gonna look exactly as mother nature or god intended it to but hey it's gonna look a whole lot better than it did i'm making sure that it's darker color is facing forward and the lighter color is on the back because that is the way that it is presenting to us in nature okay so hey not perfect but not bad at all see there yes i love the color that this changed to you can almost see because the back is that lighter color you can almost see you know how it was a lighter color in a previous life okay so we're going to take the pick which is on wire and we're going to twist those things around to make them look the way we want them to look you don't ever have to take a pic right out of the store and stick it down in the foam manipulate it a little bit that's why it's on wire [Music] i like the colors of these i think some of the leaves really match and complement that mug now we're gonna start putting in our pieces of our dried flowers and you can see these go in great with those picks i'm still trying to be careful that i don't break anything you know i'm being really gentle but the payoff is so amazing this turns out to be such a beautiful little rustic piece i love it now all i'm doing there is just kind of moving that piece of skirt away or a little bottom there so that i can place that down in that foam i don't want these to fall out you see how sturdy that flower is it's staying all in one piece so we like that just trim it up my little extra that's hanging out i always like to look at my pieces top bottom front and back you know just look at all angles to see what needs to be where so we can add or subtract as needed so we almost have all of our dried pieces in there and now we can kind of figure out what it is we want to do next well there's my last pick and this is how it is going to look this is a first look because i actually do change a little bit around but you're seeing it as i am seeing it when i'm making it i look at it at all angles just like that to see what i need to change what i need to move and because nothing is really glued down to the surface in there in that foam you can always move things around so i'm not liking the top heaviness of all of those bronzy looking beads or seed pods being on the top i want to bring some of that down and this is just on a piece of plastic and foam so it's very easy to cut you can get beautiful picks at dollar tree if they're not sold out at this point add some hot glue and put those in wherever you feel like it needs to be [Music] and so that's what i've done here and here is my final arrangement what do you think i'm so happy to have been contacted by wisedry to try these this is not a sponsored video but i really like this and i'm definitely you know i said before i live in the country so i will definitely be using this again some other ideas if you have a grandchild or a child who just brings you a little flower that they picked out of the yard you can preserve that and put it in arrangement and what a sweet way to remember i love it you could also use if your teenager goes to some type of event at school and they have flowers you know you can preserve those you can preserve a flower that your husband brings to you you can preserve flowers that you go on a romantic walk and you pick up along the way i love this you will be seeing me use this again i promise you i hope you enjoyed the video i'm so happy that you stopped by and i hope to see you again really soon bye [Music]

Tube Lab #5 Tube Rolling for Beginners
hello everyone it's jim from valves and more a small online vintage tube retailer and today we're going to talk about tube rolling for beginners part one so what the heck is tube rolling well in its simplest form it's taking the same type of tube and swapping a different tube in the same type so these three are all 6l6s or close equivalents this is a vintage 6l6 made by filco it's a absolutely beautiful tube it's one of my favorite 606s you may notice the coke bottle shape this is probably 1940s world war ii vintage if it had a date coat on it we could get close to an actual date it doesn't and um it's got the same electrical properties as these other two six cell sixes this is a metal tube isn't that fun there's no glass inside it's all designed to seal up inside the metal case these were made for heavy duty applications so industrial military applications maybe you needed a 6l6 in a bomber or in a tank or somewhere at a gun battery or in a factory that had lots of percussion and you didn't want to have glass around anyways these can be used for audio but that is not commonly done and i'm not going to say that they don't sound good because i'm certain some metal tubes do sound good but i'll leave that for you to decide you can always try one and this is a modern russian equivalent of this it's not an exact 6l6 it's in fact a 6p 3s dash e and you might notice here that the the russian letters are in fact different and that's because even though the cyrillic alphabet uses the same basic letters as our alphabet in the west the many of the letters actually are not are not the same they translate to a different letter so for example you'll see eb at the end as an extension on a tube that is a mil spec or heavy-duty spec tube and then a trend e eb translates from the zero like to ev in english so anyways this is a you can see the symbol here perhaps let me get it closer looks sort of like a house combined with an egg or a box with an egg this is a reflector tube this is one of my favorite modern new old stock 606s they just sound wonderful especially in single-handed amps you can see it's got what's called a coin base which is the last the last improvement shall we say of the octal base whereas this is a standard full base for an octal tube so that's a selection of six cell sixes electrically they're all the same but sonically they're going to be different we'll talk about that in a minute so these are our power output tubes here are small signal tubes that are very common as well 12ax7s so here is one of the most sought after 12ax7s it's a bugle boy made in holland and i don't know if you can see it but a real bugle boy has an etched acid state code on the shoulder and you can go online and you can get the the code manual that will tell you what that code breaks down to what plant what date maybe what variation on the tube what tube type and a bugle boy has a very poorly printed uh image on here and all you can see that's left is sort of the beautiful or the horn but with that acid etch date code and an identification of the plates visually you would know that that's a bugle boy what else have you got here here's a very standard let's go to this one this is an ecc 83 that's the european equivalent of a 12ax7 it's the same tube different numbering system in europe they used ecc they'll use oh what are the other ones that you'll see you'll see instead of ecc 83 you might see 8e83 cc and they flip them around just to to change a designation from being a standard tube to a preferred series tube so this happens to be a gold line made in russia you can see the gold line hence its name genelecs is the parent company and this tube and this tube the bugle boy and this this tube which is a variant of the 12ax7 this is a slovenia gen 5751 and this is a higher spec 12ax7 designed among other things for the aero industry for avionics so it's basically a heavy duty 12ax7 all these tubes are very similar so tube rolling is when i pull out my gold line if i have a pair of them let's say in a funnel preamp then i'm going to pull out my pair of gold lines and i would put in a matched set of bugle boys which would be glorious but maybe i want to try um for some other aspects of the sound signature and i might try the 57-51 maybe the 57-51 is better known for low noise so that that brings up a good question so what are we trying to do what are we trying to achieve when we to bro we might be trying to change the sonics we might be trying to improve them or or just change them maybe we want to improve the bass the mid-range the high frequency the sound stage noise level or the clarity there's there's lots of different reasons to try different tubes and looking at how different these look even though electrically they're supposed to be very similar this is a close equip equivalent it's not an identical 6l6 but the russians basically made essentially a copy of the western 6l6 so anytime you change out a tube even in a similar series you might see a change in sonics but going from this to this you can imagine that there would be substantial changes maybe maybe huge changes maybe better maybe worse sometimes it just goes laterally and you you find that you you gain a little bit in the mid-range and you lose a little bit in the base so there's a couple of options one is that you can just simply take a 12ax7 both of these are 12ax7s and swap another 12ax7 and that's a good first approach but another option is to go with a close equivalent and that's valid as well so as the tube is electrically very similar there's no reason why you can't do that how do you start well i think you should start with a goal what are you trying to achieve do you want a clear crisp base to replace the muddy base that you're experiencing or do you want to really reduce the noise level of your phono preamp in which case you're going to do some research and you'll look for a low noise 12ax7 and that that's really where it should start i would start online i do some research decide what you want to try to achieve and there's nothing wrong with just trying to achieve better i mean i'm an audiophile i've been an audiophile for oh my god i've been an audiophile for 40 some years and i'm always trying to achieve better so there's nothing wrong with trying to achieve just better but do your research online look at the tubes that people talk about and recommend as a good starting point or another good option i get emails from customers and they'll say jim i've got i'm really disappointed in my current preamp i think i could do better i've got 12 au7s 12ax7 6sn7s whatever the preamp tube is i've got can you make some recommendation this is what i have this is what i'm hearing or not hearing and with thousands of tubes in the store and the ability to pull a tube and in many cases i have a custom map i can just simply listen to the tube for the customer in fact if i have an amp for the tubes that you buy i listen to them for noise level and for quality prior to shipping and i i'll do the same thing if you are looking for certain properties in a tube many of my tubes i know intimately not all of them because when you have thousands of tubes in stock that's just not possible but that's another good option is just to send off an email rather than buying you know half a dozen various tubes that look interesting get some recommendations and um and i think that's all for beginners tube rolling part one and if you've listened this far watch this far how about a little bonus there we go feel free to use those discount codes and we'll talk to you soon cheers jim signing out

Linux Hard and Symbolic Links
let's compare hard and smog links on Linux machines so what are hard and symbolic links first of all we have this machine in the directory so I took a directory listing right here and I see there is a table called wishes txt ok so you can do a symbolic links and hard links with the Ln command so I'm guessing man LM I can see make links between piles and it adds information about well how did the interesting being right here is the - s port symbolic so what's compare and see what the difference is so I have this file you can count on the content wishes it fishes or wishes I would hope mind were sama which is macro because I like sushi and sama is good so if you try sushi try Sabah ok so what do we do do Ln minus s and we call it symbolic dot txt and so I want to put it in at wishes or here which is so K Ln minus s wishes 90 XD select ext I do a directory listing now I can see there is a symbolic dot txt file which points to wishes txt now let's do a hard link and then I can compare them and see what the difference is om pushes dot txt and we will have hard exe dude if you're listening and suddenly you see this change the font thing here and we can see something else if you look right here this number in the directory listing indicates the number of Link's pointing to that data that's right here is a 1 so there's only one link point disobey de and this right here all those two so let's add a second hard link ln hard to see HTML 2.2 wishes actually this back receiver wishes when i do our 2px key and let's do another webster fun will say we want to link from hard to dot txt it will create a link old hard three dot txt so now hard points to wishes and hard to points two wishes and hard three points to whatever r2 was and we take a look around and our directory and we see that there's a 4x all these things what they're really doing is they're not pointing to wishes wishes txt is the name of an entry that points to some spot in memory and hard is point of that same saw memory and hard to is point of that same sought memory and our three is also pointing that exact same spot in memory so all four of them are pointing the exact same spot memory i do it stat which is txt i can see the file name is wishes txt i can see the size information the inode and i can see there are four links point to it so i do the same thing with hard so stat out hard txt i can see that it is pointing to a different file name but the inode on both of these things is exactly the same number the links also the same number so let's look at this this symbolic one so we do stat symbolic dot txt well it has one link at points to a different location why is that well it's not going to the same thing hard hard too hard three and wishes are all pointing to that little message there what the symbolic link is pointing to is actually it's just listing data listing a location symbolic dot txt all it really tells you is that we are pointing to wishes txt so by cat out yeah twice and bought txt I can see what it says my cat out wishes I can see what it says I got a hard to I can see what says they all tell me the same thing but when I start changing that's when things get different so my delete wishes are M wishes that's easy txt hard to hard three at heart we're all pointing to the memory that wishes was pointing to so wishes are two three and art we're all pointing to that exact same place in memory the symbolic link on the other hand was not pointing to the memory it was pointing into a filename I do a directory listing right now I lost my cell I can see hard to heart three at heart now I'll have a number three three links symbolic also has a number one so it didn't change but you see the color a you're changed and wishes is still pointing to wishes so if I cat out my symbolic it will say symbolic take C no such file or directory well symbolic is there but wishes that if T is not there so that's what it's really ton if I create something new so I go hello I thought I did two wishes txt then rather the command would get me see cast symbolic and it says hello so now symbolic is putting two wishes at txt but wishes is a different pile than it used to be hard to are three at hard are all still pointed the same thing so let's compare what happens when we edit these things so let's go ahead and remove some through hard to our three PhD and I want to try using a couple of different editors so I'll do that creates more simple more link hard lengths so r dot t-- FC is going to point to nano dot txt and to VI dot txt and to TX dot txt and let's also add G @ ik arm G edit txt ok so if I do a director this right now you can see all these files they all have files on them and I'll pretty piece something then I can go and delete this symbolic link and all except we'll call this lucky because I think now I'll play back to where I used went to so remove our symbolic link Andrew wishes and one of ALS is PI L n minus s and we will have hard be pointed to by all lik txt there we go okay none came out my symbolic I see this this coil there now I want to install Emacs just as we we kind of need a Max and we're guilty max I need a root so oh yeah the password you may install and then a lot of packages and we install them now normally we want to use Emacs it's it's a kind of complex header you would want to use VI either but it's cut there all the time Emacs is nice because it shows me something interesting all right which is basically how a normal editors work so I'll use VI brush CI on my VII txt and it wishes were fishes I would hope my were and go into your mode and changes more skate right quit okay and I go to use the Nano now the Nano one no no no th T changes hammer I wanted to be no alright and now that did something problem as well see you can see what happened is when I changed V I use the V I want it went and change it when I his nano it went changed it but let's check into what Emacs and she had it do now so did she had a first G G edit you're probably wondering what's this all about well it's 2:00 now let's figure out our fish let's a sprout and we'll say that close it let's take a look and it looks like everything got changed just fine right kind of my G edit is just a track VI it says trout cut out my Nano it says trap so all three of these did that now do you Mac as you know window and we will do my QX and let's say inside trap one fish run out fish army let's say cause okay now we cut out lemak txt says it's caught the cat out G edit it says trout well that's interesting the cat out Nano says trout and we cat out VI and it says trout so what happened was when Emacs edited the file it took the original file and saved it as something else Emacs dot PHP Tildy thing and created a new file and then well move things over if I cat out mites in bot link it still points to whatever is it points to but it's only based on whatever hard dot txt has so hard links then got a little bit broken if I were to delete this file right here you can access D Tildy t-rex Tilly it still says trap now when I delete that one max underscore activity which is kind of a save file that it is gone I think see these symbolic links number of links are the hard links has changed from five down to four because Emacs it tasty is no longer pointing the same thing it's no link together with everything else and it's separate so when we learn we learned that symbolic links don't care where the actual memory is is just pointing to an address and we learned that hard links point to a physical address in memory and some editors will change the files in place and some editors will create new files and then replace the names so hard links to blog links let me keep mine and there you go

2017 Lincoln Continental vs 2017 Genesis G90 Compare Cars
2017 Lincoln Continental vs. 2017 Genesis g90 compare cars the 2017 Lincoln Continental and 2017 Genesis g90 are two different takes on flagship level luxury each provides its own way of pampering the driver and all passengers along for the ride but there can only be one winner it's a close one but in our eyes the genesis G 90 does the top-end luxury thing just a little better than the Continental read more about how we rate cars last year neither the G 19 or the Continental existed each has its own unique coming to fruition story Genesis is a new brand spawned by parent company Hyundai Genesis takes its inspiration from Toyota's Lexus division as a high-end nameplate that places pampering above all else previously the g90 was known as the Hyundai Equus but the 2017 is an all-new evolution of the old Equus Lincoln on the other hand is hardly a new arrival into the luxury space but parent company Ford neglected the brand to the point of irrelevance II but the Continental signals the beginning of a new era with just a few cues to the brand's illustrious and nearly forgotten past lurking for those willing to take a look both cars play up the luxury look well with greenhouses that is the glass area that could be facsimile zuv one another the g 90 snub-nosed front end is almost anonymous but it's dramatically swept back tail lamps convey more of a sense of purpose the Continental is more visually intriguing with subtle bits like door handles just below the window sills and a finely detailed grille adding interest without coming across as gaudy their differences mount inside the Lincoln feels a little gauche to us on the priciest versions and a bit basic otherwise it's all down to careful trim selection but fortunately Lincoln has many choices on offer the Jean ideas conventional but shows incredible attention to detail in its materials and button placement neither is a slouch but again there are some choices to be made in terms of performance the Continental line starts with a fairly pedestrian 305 horsepower 3.7 liter v6 but the optional 335 horsepower 2.7 liter twin-turbo v6 feels more at home here the engine of choice at least for us is the 400 horsepower twin turbo 3.0 liter v6 it's the strongest engine on offer and it sends power to all four wheels via a 6-speed automatic gearbox that feels down a cog or to buy luxury grade standards on the g 90 buyers get to pick between a 3.3 liter twin turbo v6 rated at 365 horsepower or a strong 420 horsepower v8 both of which are mated to an 8-speed automatic with the choice of rear or all-wheel drive for the most part it's the G 90 that drives more like a true luxury car it's as composed and refined as a Lexus LS or mercedes-benz s-class but at a fraction of the price the Continental reveals its lower end front drive routes too often even with the big v6 under its hood

there's no more stars that way okay [Music] there you go gotcha whoo which one is this it's the old lady with a Lampert thing Edina Astra you know this one yes I know this one it's a common story how Dena journeyed the frozen lake how she traversed unknown faraway lands I was very into Dena stories and I was a kid she must know what became of her yeah how she and her quest turned her back on the sky and journeyed down into the earth where the stars were no longer over ahead and how she was never seen again yeah whatever is that not a sad ending yeah I mean she probably died her know disappearing is the same as dying it's pretty close but let's go with that one she probably went somewhere else completely and did all kinds of cool shit Oh My yes whatever sure that's one way to spin it [Music] she should be a White House secretary she's been so hard there you go I think I got one either really like 20 frigging stars in here because I think I missed at least one attempt Fernan to the mountain dear fern and Ferdinand dad it's a fun name it is so what's up with this guy fern Anand was in a flat land this Midwest whatever the Midwest of wherever from he was from was every place has a Midwest this is true he dreamed of the mountains and devoted his life to climbing them because his hometown was a flat isn't that a common instinct to seek that as which which is unlike one where it grows up yeah I guess so and not really yeah I mean people go to the city a lot let them move there because it's got stuff there's more people like then maybe socks though not everyone can just up and leave when I left my country I felt the same thing but I have not regretted it you like possum Springs it is beautiful in ways perhaps invisible to those who've seen it every day of their lives so happen different and he returned home I've complained this guy felt heavy he had been up into the clouds now that rested hard upon him it's a really specific complaint when one leaves a place one brings something back when one returns one one hoof that's all for the day that was nice all right that's enough burning my eyeholes out for one day pretty sweet stars I mean I'm an agreement we

neighbor old man Jim indistinguishable from your neighbor except it's smaller and it runs around on four legs like what the fuck like that's even worse than that cat like it is not better because monkeys are simpler no no it'd be even worse if it was like that also apparently these things are randomized let's let's try this one of the developers I think it was infinite at infinite ammo is his name there's also at bombs wall they have very violent names for making an extremely non-violent game I mean we did stab each other but not like you know you know I think it's day to day beyond the

Popular History of France from the Earliest Times vol 1 | François Pierre Guillaume Guizot | 6/9
section 20 of volume 1 of a popular history of france from the earliest times this is a librivox recording all librivox recordings are in the public domain for more information or to volunteer please visit librivox.org volume one of a popular history of france from the earliest times by francois guizeau translated by robert black chapter 11 charlemagne in his government part what charlemagne was in his wars and his general relations with his nation has just been seen he shall now be exhibited in all his administrative activity and his intellectual life as a legislator and as a friend to the human mind the same man will be recognized in every case he will grow in greatness without changing as he appears under his various aspects they are often joined together under the title of capitularies capitula small chapters articles a mass of acts very different in point of date and objects which are attributed indiscriminately to charlemagne this is a mistake the capitularies are the laws or legislative measures of the frankish kings merovingian as well as carlovingian those of the merovingians are few in number and of slight importance and amongst those of the carlobinjians which amount to 152 65 are only due to charlemagne when an attempt is made to classify these last according to their object it is impossible not to be struck with their incoherent variety and several of them are such as we should nowadays be surprised to meet with in a code or in a special law amongst charlemagne's 65 capitularies which contain 1151 articles may be counted 87 of moral 293 of political 130 of penal 110 of civil 85 of religious 305 of canonical 73 of domestic and 12 of incidental legislation and it must not be supposed that all these articles are really acts of legislation laws properly so called we find amongst them the text of ancient national laws revised and promulgated afresh extracts from and additions to these same ancient laws sal lombard and bavarian extracts from acts of councils instructions given by charlemagne to his envoys in the provinces questions that he proposed to put to the bishops or counts when they came to the national assembly answers given by charlemagne to questions addressed to him by the bishops counts or commissioners misi dominici judgments decrees royal pardons and simple notes that charlemagne seems to have written down for himself alone to remind him of what he proposed to do in a word nearly all the various acts which could possibly have to be framed by an earnest far-sighted an active government often indeed these capitularies have no imperative or prohibitive character they are simple counsels purely moral precepts we read therein for example covetousness death consists in desiring that which others possess and in giving away not of that which ones self possesseth according to the apostle it is the root of all evil and hospitality must be practiced the capitularies which have been classed under the heads of political penal and canonical legislation are the most numerous and are those which bear most decidedly an imperative or prohibitive stamp amongst them a prominent place is held by measures of political economy administration and police you will find therein an attempt to put a fixed price on provisions a real trial of a maximum for serials a prohibition of mendicity with the following clause if such mendicants be met with and they labor not with their hands let none take thought about giving unto them the interior police of the palace was regulated thereby as well as that of the empire we do will and decree that none of those who serve in our palace shall take leave to receive therein any man who seeketh refuge there and cometh to hide there by reason of theft homicide adultery or any other crime that if any free man do break through our interdicts and hide such a malefactor in our palace he shall be bound to carry him on his shoulders to the public quarter and there be tied to the same stake as the malefactor certain capitularies have been termed religious legislation in contra distinction to canonical legislation because they are really admonitions religious exhortations addressed not to the ecclesiastics alone but to the faithful the christian people in general and notably characterized by good sense and one might almost say freedom of thought for example beware of venerating the names of martyrs falsely so-called and the memory of dubious saints let none suppose that prayer cannot be made to god saving three tons probably latin greek and germanic or perhaps the vulgar tongue for the last was really beginning to take form for god alone is adored in all tongues and man is heard if he do but ask for the things that be right these details are put forward that a proper idea may be obtained of charlemagne as a legislator and of what are called his laws we have here it will be seen no ordinary legislator and no ordinary laws we see the work with infinite variations and in disconnect form of a prodigiously energetic and watchful master who had to think and provide for everything who had to be everywhere the moving and the regulating spirit this universal and untiring energy is the grand characteristic of charlemagne's government and was perhaps what made his superiority most incontestable and his power most efficient it is noticeable that the majority of charlemagne's capitularies belong to that epoch of his reign when he was emperor of the west when he was invested with all the splendor of sovereign power of the 65 capitularies classed under different heads 13 only are previous to the 25th of december 800 the datives coronation as emperor at rome 52 are comprised between the years 801 and 804 the energy of charlemagne is a warrior and a politician having thus been exhibited it remains to say a few words about his intellectual energy for that is by no means the least original or least grand feature of his character and his influence modern times and civilized society have more than once seen despotic sovereigns filled with distrust towards scholars of exalted intellect especially such as cultivated the moral and political sciences and a little inclined to admit them to their favor or to public office there is no knowing whether in our days with our freedom of thought and of the press charlemagne would have been a stranger to this feeling of antipathy but what is certain is that in his day in the midst of a barbaric society there was no inducement to it and that by nature he was not disposed to it his power was not in any respect questioned distinguished intellects were very rare charlemagne had too much need of their services to fear their criticisms and they on their part were more anxious to second his efforts than to show towards him anything like exaction or independence he gave rain therefore without any embarrassment or misgiving to his spontaneous inclination towards them their studies their labors and their influence he drew them into the management of affairs in guizhou's history of civilization in france there is a list of the names and works of 23 men of the 8th and 9th centuries who have escaped oblivion and they are all found grouped about charlemagne as his own habitual advisors or assisted by him as advisers to his sons pepin and louis in italy and akutanya or sent by him to all points of his empire as commissioners misi dominici or charged in his name with important negotiations and those whom he did not employ at a distance formed in his immediate neighborhood a learned and industrious society a school of the palace according to some modern commentators but an academy and not a school according to others devoted rather to conversation than to teaching it probably fulfilled both missions it attended charlemagne at his various residences at one time working for him at questions he invited them to deal with at another giving the regular components of his court to his children and to himself lessons in the different sciences called liberal grammar rhetoric logic astronomy geometry and even theology and the great religious problems it was beginning to discuss two men alkyn and egenhard have remained justly celebrated in the literary history of the age al queen was the principal director of the school of the palace and the favorite the confidant the learned advisor of charlemagne if your zeal were imitated said he one day to the emperor perchance one might see a rise in france a new athens far more glorious than the ancient the athens of christ egenhard who was younger received his scientific education in the school of the palace and was head of the public works to charlemagne therefore becoming his biographer and at a later period the intimate advisor of his son louis the debonair other scholars of the school of the palace inglebert ledride adelhard aglebard theodolf were abbots of saint requier or corby archbishop of lyon and bishops of orleon they had all assumed in the school itself names illustrious and pagan antiquity alcuan called himself flying's engelbert homer theodolf pender charlemagne himself had been pleased to take in their society a great name of old but he had borrowed from the history of the hebrews he called himself david and egenhard animated no doubt by the same sentiments was bezalil that nephew of moses to whom god had granted the gift of knowing how to work skillfully in wood and all the materials which served for the construction of the ark and the tabernacle either in the lifetime of their royal patron or after his death all these scholars became great dignitaries of the church or ended their lives in monasteries of note but so long as they lived they served charlemagne or his sons not only with the devotion of faithful advisors but also as followers proud of the master who had known how to do them honor by making use of them it was without effort and by natural sympathy that charlemagne had inspired them with such sentiments for he too really loved sciences literature and such studies as were then possible and he cultivated them on his own account for his own pleasure as a sort of conquest it has been doubted whether he could write and an expression of egonard's might authorize such a doubt but according to other evidence and even according to the passage in eganhard one is inclined to believe merely that charlemagne strove painfully and without much success to write a good hand he had learned latin and he understood greek he caused to be commenced and perhaps himself commenced the drawing up of the first germanic grammar he ordered that the old barbaric poems in which the deeds and wars of the ancient kings were celebrated should be collected for posterity he gave germanic names to the 12 months of the year he distinguished the wins by 12 special terms whereas before his time they had but four designations he paid great attention to astronomy being troubled one day at no longer seeing in the firmament one of the known planets he wrote to alcuin what thinkest thou of this mars which last year being concealed in the sign of cancer was intercepted from the sight of men by the light of the sun is it the regular course of his revolution is it the influence of the son is it a miracle could he have been two years about performing the course of a single one in theological studies and discussions he exhibited a particular and grave interest it is to him say m m amphir and hero that we must refer the honor of the decision taken in 794 by the council of frankfurt in the great dispute about images a temperate decision which is as far removed from the infatuation of the image worshippers as from the frenzy of the image breakers and at the same time that he thus took part in the great ecclesiastical questions charlemagne paid zealous attention to the instruction of the clergy whose ignorance he deplored ah said he one day if only i had about me a dozen clerics learn it in all the sciences as jerome and augustine were with all his poisons it was not in his power to make jeromes and augustines but he laid the foundation in the cathedral churches and great monasteries of episcopal and cloistering schools for the education of ecclesiastics and carrying his solicitude still farther he recommended to the bishops and abbotts that in those schools they should take care to make no difference between the sons of serfs and of free men so that they might come and sit on the same benches to study grammar music and arithmetic capitularies of 789 article 70. thus in the 8th century he foreshadowed the extension which in the 19th was to be accorded to primary instruction to the advantage in honor not only of the clergy but also of the whole people after so much of war and toil at a distance charlemagne was now at exla chappelle finding rest in this work a peaceful civilization he was embellishing the capital which he had found and which was called the king's court he had built there a grand basilica magnificently adorned he was completing his own palace there he fetched from italy clerics guild and church music a pious joyance to which he was much devoted and which he recommended to the bishops of his empire in the outskirts of ex-la chappelle he gave full scope sent eggenhardt to his delight in riding and hunting baths of naturally tepid water gave him great pleasure being passionately fond of swimming he became so dexterous that none could be compared with him he invited not only his sons but also his friends the grandes of his court and sometimes even the soldiers of his guard to bathe with him in so much that there were often a hundred and more persons bathing at a time when age arrived he made no alteration in his bodily habits but at the same time instead of putting away from him the thought of death he was much taken up with it and prepared himself for it with stern severity he drew up modified and completed his will several times over three years before his death he made out the distribution of his treasures his money his wardrobe and all his furniture in the presence of his friends and his officers in order that their voice might ensure after his death the execution of this partition and he set down his intentions in this in a written summary in which he masked all his riches in three grand lots the first two were divided into 21 portions which were to be distributed amongst the 21 metropolitan churches of his empire after having put these first two lots under seal he willed to preserve to himself his usual enjoyment of the third so long as he lived but after his death or voluntary renunciation of the things of this world this same lot was to be subdivided into four portions his intention was that the first should be added to the 21 portions which were to go to the metropolitan churches the second set aside for his sons and daughters and for the sons and daughters of his sons and redivided amongst them in a just and proportionate manner the third dedicated according to the usage of the christians to the necessities of the poor and lastly the fourth distributed in the same way under the name of alms amongst the servants of both sexes of the palace for their lifetime as for the books of which he had amassed a large number in his library he decided that those who wish to have them might buy them at their proper value and that the money which they produce should be distributed amongst the poor having thus carefully regulated his own private affairs and bounty he two years later in 813 took the measures necessary for the regulation after his death of public affairs he had lost in 811 his eldest son charles who had been his constant companion in his wars and in 810 his second son pepin whom he had made king of italy and he summoned to his side his third son louis king of aquitaine who was destined to succeed him he ordered the convocation of five local councils which were to assemble at mayence rem shalom and ar for the purpose of bringing about subject to the king's ratifications the reforms necessary in the church passing from the affairs of the church to those of the state he convoked at ex-la chapelle a general assembly of bishops abbots counts grandees and of the entire people and holding council in his palace with the chief amongst them he invited them to make his son louis king emperor where to all ascended saying that it was very expedient and pleasing also to the people on sunday in the next month august 8 13 charlemagne repaired crown on head with his son louie to the cathedral of eksa chappelle laid upon the altar another crown and after praying addressed to his son a solemn exhortation respecting all his duties as king towards god and church towards his family and his people and asked him if he were fully resolved to fulfill them and that the answer that he was had him take the crown that lay upon the altar and place it with his own hands upon his head which louis did amidst the acclamations of all present who cried long live the emperor louis charlemagne then declared his son emperor jointly with him and ended the solemnity with these words blessed be thou o lord god who has granted me grace to see with mine own eyes my son seated on my throne and louise set out again immediately for aquitaine he was never to see his father again charlemagne after his son's departure went out hunting according to his custom in the forest of arden and continued during the whole autumn his usual mode of life but in january 814 he was taken ill says eggnard of a violent fever which kept him to his bed recurring forthwith to the remedy he ordinarily employed against fever he abstained from all nourishment persuaded that this diet would suffice to drive away or at least assuage the malady but added to the fever came that pain in the side which the greeks call pleurisy nevertheless the emperor persisted in his abstinence supporting his body only by drinks taken at long intervals and on the seventh day after he taken to his bed having received the holy communion he expired about 9 a.m on saturday the 28th of january 8 14 in his 71st year after performance of ablutions and funeral duties the corpse was carried away and buried amidst the profound mourning of all the people in the church he himself had built and above his tomb there was put up a gilded arcade with his image and this superscription in this tomb reposeth the body of charles great and orthodox emperor who did gloriously extend the kingdom of the franks and did govern it happily for 47 years he died at the age of 70 years in the year of the lord 814 in the seventh year of the indiction on the fifth of the cowans of february if we sum up his designs and his achievements we find an admirably sound idea and a vain dream a great success and a great failure charlemagne took in hand the work of placing upon a solid foundation the frankish christian dominion by stopping in the north and south the flood of barbarians and arabs paganism and islamism in that he succeeded the inundations of asiatic populations spent their force in vain against the gallic frontier western and christian europe was placed territorially beyond reach of attacks from the foreigner and infidel no sovereign no human being perhaps ever rendered greater service to the civilization of the world charlemagne formed another conception and made another attempt like more than one great barbaric warrior he admired the roman empire that had fallen its vastness all in one and its powerful organizations under the hand of a single master he thought he could resuscitate it durably through the victory of a new people and a new faith by the hand of franks and christians with this view he labored to conquer convert and govern he tried to be at one in the same time caesar augustus and constantine and for a moment he appeared to have succeeded but the appearance passed away with himself the unity of the empire and the absolute power of the emperor were buried in his grave the christian religion and human liberty set to work to prepare for europe other governments and other destinies great men do great things which would not get done without them they set their mark plainly upon history which realizes a portion of their ideas and wishes but they are far from doing all they meditate and they know not all they do they are at one in the same time instruments and free agents in a general design which is infinitely above their ken and which even if a glimpse of it be caught remains inscrutable to them the design of god towards mankind when great men understand that such is their position and accepted they show sense and they work to some purpose when they do not recognize the limits of their free agency and the veil which hides from their eyes the future they are laboring for they become the dukes and frequently the victims of a blind pride which events in the long run always end by exposing and punishing amongst men of his rank charlemagne had this singular good fortune that his error his misguided attempted imperialism perished with him whilst his salutary achievement the territorial security of christian europe has been durable to the great honor as well as the great prophet of

the carlobinsians part one from the death of charlemagne to the accession of hugh capey that is from 814 to 987 13 kings sat upon the throne of france what then became under their reign and in the course of those 173 years of the two great facts which swayed the mind and occupied the life of charlemagne what became that is of the solid territorial foundation of the kingdom of christian france through efficient repression of foreign invasion and of the unity of that vast empire wherein charlemagne had attempted and hoped to resuscitate the roman empire the fate of those two facts is the very history of france under the carlovinian dynasty it is the only portion of the events of that epoch which still deserves attention nowadays for it is the only one which has exercised any great and lasting influence on the general history of france attempts at foreign invasion of france were renewed very often and in many parts of galo frankish territory during the whole duration of the carlovinian dynasty and even though they failed they caused the population of the kingdom to suffer from cruel ravages charlemagne even after his successes against the different barbaric invaders had foreseen the evils which would be inflicted on france by the most formidable and most determined of them the northmen coming by sea and landing on the coast the most closely contemporaneous and most given to detail of his chroniclers the monk of saint gaul tells in prolix and pompous but evidently heartfelt in sincere terms the tale of the great emperor's farsightedness charles who was ever a stir says he arrived by mere happ and unexpectedly in a certain town of narboneskal whilst he was at dinner and was as yet unrecognized of any some corsairs of the northmen came to ply their piracies in the very port when their vessels were described they were supposed to be jewish traders according to some african according to others and british in the opinion of others but the gifted monarch perceiving by the build and likeness of the craft that they bear not merchandise but foes said to his own folk these vessels be not laden with merchandise but manned with cruel foes at these words all the franks in rivalry one with another ran to their ships but uselessly for the northmen indeed hearing that yonder was he whom it was still there want to call charles the hammer feared lest all their fleet should be taken or destroyed in the port and they avoided by a flight of inconceivable rapidity not only the graves but even the eyes of those who were pursuing them pius charles however a prey to well-grounded fear rose up from the table stationed himself at a window looking eastward and there remained a long while and his eyes were filled with tears as none durst questioned him this warlike prince explained to the grandes who were about his person the cause of his movement and of his tears know ye my legis wherefore i weep so bitterly of a surety i fear not lest these fellows should succeed in injuring me by their miserable piracies but it grieveth me deeply that whilst i live they should have been nigh to touching at this shore and i am a prey to violent sorrow when i foresee what evils they will heap upon my descendants and their people the forecast and the dejection of charles were not unreasonable it will be found that there is special mention made in the chronicles of the 9th and 10th centuries of 47 incursions into france of norwegian danish swedish and irish pirates all comprised under the name of northmen and doubtless many other incursions of less gravity have left no trace in history the northmen says monsieur fariel descended from the north to the south by a sort of natural gradation or ladder the shelt was the first river by the mouth of which they penetrated inland the sen was the second the loire the third the advance was threatening for the countries traversed by the garonne and it was in 844 that vessels freighted with northmen for the first time ascended this last river to a considerable distance inland and there took immense booty the following year they pillaged and burnt sand in 846 they got as far as limoges the inhabitants finding themselves unable to make head against the dauntless pirates abandoned their hearths together with all they had not time to carry away encouraged by these successes the northmen reappeared next year upon the coasts and in the rivers of aquitaine and they attempted to take bordeaux once they were valorously repulsed by the inhabitants but in 848 having once more laid siege to that city they were admitted into it at night by the jews who were there in great force the city was given up to plunder and conflagration a portion of the people was scattered abroad and the rest put to the sword tu ruin some of them more than once met the fate of sant limos and bordeaux the monasteries and churches wherein they hoped to find treasures were the favorite objects of the northmen's enterprises in particular they plundered at the gates of paris the abbey of saint germain de pre and that of sandini once they carried off the abbot who could not purchase his freedom say by heavy ransom they penetrated more than once into paris itself and subjected many of its quarters to contributions or pillage the populations grew into the habit of suffering and fleeing and the local lords and even the kings made arrangements sometimes with the pirates either for saving the royal domains from their ravages or for having their own chair therein in 850 pepin king of aquitaine and brother of charles the bald came to an understanding with the northmen who had ascended the garonne and were threatening to lose they arrived under his guidance says mr fariel they laid siege to it took it and plundered it not half-wise not hastily as folks who feared to be surprised but leisurely with all security by virtue of a treaty of alliance with one of the kings of the country throughout aquitaine there was but one cry of indignation against pepin and the popularity of charles was increased in proportion to all the horror inspired by the ineffable misdeed of his adversary charles the bald himself if he did not ally himself as pepin did with the invaders took scarce any interest in the fate of the populations and scarcely more trouble to protect them for hinkmar archbishop of rem wrote to him in 859 many folks say that you are incessantly repeating that it is not for you to mix yourself up with these depredations and robberies and that everyone has but to defend himself as best he may it were tedious to relate or even to enumerate all these incursions of the northmen with their monotonous incidents when their frequency and their general character have been notified all has been done that is due to them from history however there are three on which it may be worthwhile to dwell particularly by reason of their grave historical consequences as well as of the dramatic details which have been transmitted to us about them in the middle and during the last half of the ninth century a chief of the northmen named hustank or hastings appeared several times over the coasts and in the rivers of france with numerous vessels and a following he had also with him say the chronicles a young norwegian or danish prince bjern called ironsides whom he had educated and who had preferred sharing the fortunes of his governor to living quietly with the king his father after several expeditions into western france hastings became the theme of terrible and very probably fabulous stories he extended his cruises they say to the mediterranean and having arrived at the coast of tuscany with sight of a city which in his ignorance he took for rome he resolved to pillage it but not feeling strong enough to attack it by assault he sent to the bishop to say he was very ill felt a wish to become a christian and beg to be baptized some days afterwards his comrades spread a report that he was dead and claimed for him the honors of a solemn burial the bishop consented the coffin of hastings was carried into the church attended by a large number of his followers without visible weapons but in the middle of the ceremony hastings suddenly leapt up sword in hand from his coffin his followers displayed the weapons they had concealed closed the doors slew the priests pillaged the ecclesiastical treasures and re-embarked before the very eyes of the stupefied population to go and resume on the coast of france their incursions and their ravages whether they were true or false these rumors of bold artifices and distant expeditions on the part of hastings aggravated the dismay inspired by his appearance he penetrated into the interior of the country and potu anju brittany and along the sen pillaged the monasteries of zhumej saint vadril and saint ev-rule took possession of shart and appeared before paris where charles the bald entrenched at sandini was deliberating with his prelates and barons as to how he might resist the northmen or treat with them the chronicle says that the barons advised resistance but that the king preferred negotiation and sent the abbot of sandini the witch was an exceedingly wise man to hastings who after a long parley and by reason of large gifts and promises consented to stop his cruising to become a christian and to settle in the count ship of shard which the king gave him as in hereditary possession with all its appertances according to other accounts it was only some years later under the young king louis iii grandson of charles the bald that hastings was induced either by reverses or by payment of money to cease from his piracy and accept and recompense the countship of shart whatever may have been the date he was it is believed the first chieftain of the northmen who renounced a life of adventure and plunder to become in france a great landed proprietor and account of the kings prince burn then separated from his governor and put again to sea laden with so rich a booty that he could never feel any want of wealth but a tempest swallowed up a great part of his fleet and cast him upon the coast of friesland where he died soon after for which hastings was exceeding sorry a greater chieftain of the northmen than hastings was soon to follow his example and found normandy in france but before rolf that is rallo came and gave the name of his race to a french province the piratical northmen were again to attempt a greater blow against france and to suffer a great reverse in november 885 under the reign of charles the fat after having for more than 40 years irregularly ravaged france they resolved to unite their forces in order at length to obtain possession of paris whose outskirts they had so often pillaged without having been able to enter the heart of the place in the eel de la site which had originally been and still was the real paris two bodies of troops were set in motion one under the command of rallo who was already famous amongst his comrades marched on the other went right up the course of the sen under the orders of siegfried whom the northmen called their king rallo took round and pushed on at once for paris duke renault general of the gallow frankish troops went to encounter him on the banks of the euro and sent to him to sound his intentions hastings the newly made count of shart valiant warriors said hastings torello once ye come what seek ye hear what is the name of your lord and master tell us this for we be sent unto you by the king of the franks we be danes answered rallo and all be equally masters amongst us we become to drive out the inhabitants of this land and to subject it as our own country but who art thou thou whose speakest so glibly ye have sometime heard tell of one hastings who issuing forth from amongst you came hither with much shipping and made desert a great part of the kingdom of the franks yes said rallo we have heard tell of him hastings began well and ended ill will ye yield you to king charles ask tastings we yield was the answer to none all that we shall take by our arms we will keep as our right go and tell this if thou wilt to the king whose envoy thou boastest to be hastings returned to the gallow frankish army and rallo prepared to march on paris hastings had gone back somewhat troubled in mind now there was amongst the frank's one count troubled tibalt who greatly coveted the count ship of shard and he said to hastings why slumberest thou softly knowest thou not that king charles doth purpose thy death because of all the christian blood that thou didst before time unjustly shed be think thee of all the evil thou stunt him by reason whereof he purposeth to drive thee from his land take heed to thyself that thou be not smitten unawares hastings dismayed at once sold to tet bold the town of chart and removing all that belonged to him departed to go and resume for all that appears his old course of life on the 25th of november 885 all the forces of the northmen formed a junction before paris 700 huge barks covered two leagues of the sen bringing it as said more than thirty thousand men the chieftains were astonished at sight of the new fortifications of the city a double wall of circumvillation the bridges crowned with towers and in the environs the ramparts of the abbeys of santanie and saint-germain solidly rebuilt siegfried hesitated to attack a town so well-defended he demanded to enter alone and have an interview with the bishop goslin take pity on thyself and thy flock he said to him but let us pass through this city we will in no wise touch the town we will do our best to preserve for thee and count uds all your possessions this city replied the bishop hath been confided unto us by the emperor charles king and ruler under god of the powers of the earth he hath confided it unto us not that it should cause the ruin but the salvation of the kingdom if pear adventure these walls had been confided to thy keeping as they have been to mine what's thou do as thou bittest me if i ever do so answered sigfried may my head be condemned to fall by the sword and serve as food for the dogs but if thou yield not to our prayers so soon as the sun shall commence his course our armies will launch upon thee their poisoned arrows and when the sun shall end his course they will give thee over to all the horrors of famine and this will they do from year to year the bishop however persisted without further discussion being as certain of count uds as he was of himself yudis who was young but recently made count of paris was the eldest son of robert the strong count of anju of the same line as charlemagne but lately slain in the battle against the northmen paris had for defenders two heroes one of the church and the other of the empire the faith of the christian and the fealty of the vassal the conscientiousness of the priest and the honor of the warrior the siege lasted 13 months whilst pushed vigorously forward with eight several assaults whilst maintained by close investment and with all the alterations of success in reverse all the inter-mixture of brilliant daring and obscure sufferings that can occur when the assailants are determined and the defenders devoted not only a contemporary but an eyewitness a monk of saint germain de pre has recounted all the details in a long poem where in the writer devoid of talent adds nothing to the simple representation of events it is history itself which gives to abo's poem high degree of interest we do not possess in reference to these continual struggles of the northmen with the gallow frankish populations any other document which is equally precise and complete or which could make us so well acquainted with all the incidents all the phrases of this irregular warfare between two peoples one without a government the other without a country the bishop goslin died during the siege count yudis quitted paris for a time to go and beg aid of the emperor but the parisians soon saw him reappear on the heights of mount mart with three battalions of troops and he re-entered the town spurring on his horse and striking right and left with his battle axe through the ranks of the dumb founded besiegers the struggle was prolonged throughout the summer and when in november 886 charles the fat at last appeared before paris with a large army of all nations it was to purchase the retreat of the northmen at the cost of a heavy ransom and by allowing them to go in winter in burgundy whereof the inhabitants obeyed not the emperor some months afterward in 887 charles the fat was deposed at a deit held on the banks of the rhine by the grandes of germanic france and arnold a natural son of carlimon the brother of louis iii was proclaimed emperor in his stead at the same time count yudis the gallant defender of paris was elected king at campagna and crowned by the archbishop of sen ghee duke of spaletto descended from charlemagne in the female line hastened to france and was declared king at long graves by the bishop of that town but returned with precipitation to italy seeing no chance of maintaining himself and his french kingship elsewhere bosso duke of aryl became king of provence and the burgundian count rodolf had himself crowned at saint maurice in the valet king of transgeran burgundy there was still in france a legitimate carl of indian a son of louis the stutterer who was hereafter to become charles the simple but being only a child he had been rejected or completely forgotten and in the interval that was to elapse air this time should arrive kings were being made in all directions in the midst of this confusion the northmen though they kept at a distance from paris pursued in western france their cruising and plundering in rallo they had a chieftain far superior to his vagabond predecessors though he still led the same life that they had he displayed therein other faculties other inclinations other views in his youth he had made an expedition to england and had there contracted a real friendship with the wise king alfred the great during a campaign in friesland he had taken prisoner rainier count of hanoi and abarade countess of brabant made a request to rallo for her husband's release offering in return to set free 12 captains of the northmen her prisoners and to give up all the gold she possessed rallo took only half the gold and restored to the count as her husband when in 885 he became master of rua instead of devastating the city after the fashion of his kind he respected the buildings had the walls repaired and humored the inhabitants in spite of his violent and extortionate practices where he met with obstinate resistance there were to be discerned in him symptoms of more noble sentiments and of an instinctive leaning towards order civilization and government after the deposition of charles the fad and during the reign of uds a lively struggle was maintained between the frankish king and the chieftain of the northmen who had neither of them forgotten their early encounters they strove one against the other with varied fortunes ud succeeded in beating the northmen at mont falcon but was beaten in vermandoy by another band commanded it is said by the veteran hastings sometime count of shart rallo 2 had his share at one time of success at another reverse but he made himself master of several important towns showed a disposition to treat the quiet populations gently and made a fresh trip to england during which he renewed friendly relations with her king athelston the successor of alfred the great he thus became from day to day more reputable as well as more formidable in france in so much that uds himself was obliged to have recourse in dealing with him to negotiations and presence when in 898 uds was dead and charles the simple at hardly 19 years of age had been recognized soul king of france the ascendancy of rallo became such that the necessity of treating with him was clear in 911 charles by the advice of his counselors and amongst them of robert brother of the late king judes who had himself become count of paris in duke of france sent to the chieftain of the northmen franco archbishop of rua with orders to offer him the session of a considerable portion of nustria and the hand of his young daughter jiscle on condition that he became a christian and acknowledged himself the king's vassal rallo by the advice of his comrades received these overtures with a good grace and agreed to a truce for three months during which they might treat about peace on the day fixed charles accompanied by duke robert and rallo surrounded by his warriors were paired to sant clair sir on the opposite banks of the river and exchanged numerous messages charles offered rallo flanders which the northmen refused considering it too swampy as to the maritime position of nustria he would not be contented with it it was he said covered with forests and had become quite a stranger to the plowshare by reason of the northmen's incessant incursions he demanded the addition of territories taken from brittany and that the princes of that province behringer and allen lords respectively of red and del should take the oath of fidelity to him when matters had been arranged on this basis the bishops told rallo that he who received such a gift as the duchy of normandy was bound to kiss the king's foot never quothrallo will i bend the knee before the knees of any and will i kiss the foot of no one at the solicitation of the franks he then ordered one of his warriors to kiss the king's foot the northmen remaining bolt upright took hold of the king's foot raised it to his mouth and so made the king fall backwards which caused great bursts of laughter and much disturbance among the throng then the king and all the grandes who are about him prelates abbotts dukes and counts swore in the name of the catholic faith that they would protect the patrician rallo in his life his members and his folk and would guarantee to him the possession of the aforesaid land to him and his descendants forever after which the king well satisfied returned to his domains and rallo departed with duke robert for the town of ruan end of chapter 12 part 1. section 22 of volume 1 of a

reason to be well satisfied but the great political question which a century before caused charlemagne such lively anxiety was solved the most dangerous the most incessantly renewed of all foreign invasions those of the northmen ceased to threaten france the vagabond pirates had a country to cultivate and defend the northmen were becoming french no such transformation was near taking place in the case of the invasions of the saracens and southerngall they continue to infest aquitania septomania and provence their robber hordes appearing frequently on the coast of the mediterranean and the banks of the rhone at agmort at marseilles at arl and in khamar they sometimes penetrated into dauphine rojerk limosen and santong the author of this history saw at the commencement of the present century the mountains of the savines the ruins of the towers built a thousand years ago by the inhabitants of those rugged countries to put their families and their flocks under shelter from the incursions of the saracens but these incursions were of short duration and most frequently undertaken by plunderers few in number who treated precipitately with their booty africa was not as asia was an inexhaustible source of nations burning to push onward one upon another to go wandering and settling elsewhere the people of the north move willingly towards the south where living is easier and pleasanter but the people of the south are not much disposed to migrate to the north with its soil so hard to cultivate and its lead in skies into the midst of its fogs and frosts after a course of plundering in aquitania or in provence the arabs of spain and of africa were eager to recross the pyrenees or the mediterranean and regain their own lovely climate and their life of easefulness that never pauled furthermore between christians and muslims the religious antipathy was profound the christian missionaries were not much given to carrying their pious zeal into the home of the musselmen and the muslims were far less disposed than the pagans to become christians to preserve their conquests the arabs of spain had to struggle against the refugee goths in the austeris and charlemagne by extending those of the franks to ebro had given the christian goths a powerful alliance against the spanish muslims for all these reasons the invasions of the saracens and the south of france did not threaten as those of the north men did in the north the security of the gallow-frankish monarchy and the gallo roman populations of the south were able to defend their national independence at the same time against the saracens and the franks they did so successfully in the 9th and 10th centuries and the french monarchy which was being founded between the loire and the rhine had thus for some time a breach in it without ever suffering serious displacement a new people the hungarians which was the only name then given to the magyars appeared at this epic for the first time amongst the devastators of western europe from 910 to 954 as a consequence of movements and wars on the danube hungarian hordes after scouring central germany penetrated into alsace lorraine champagne burgundy berry dauphine provence and even aquitaine but this inundation was transitory and if the populations of those countries had much to suffer from it the gallo frankish dominion in spite of inward disorder and the feebleness of the latter carlovingians was not seriously endangered thereby and so the first of charlemagne's grand designs the territorial security of the gallow frankish and christian dominion was accomplished in the east and the north the germanic and asiatic populations which had so long upset it were partly arrested at its frontiers partly incorporated regularly in its midst in the south the muslim populations which in the 8th century had appeared so near overwhelming it were powerless to deal at any heavy blow substantially france was founded but what had become of charlemagne's second grand design the resuscitation of the roman empire at the hands of the barbarians that had conquered it and become christians let us leave louis the debonair his traditional name although it is not an exact rendering of that which was given him by his contemporaries they called him louis the pious and so indeed he was sincerely and even scrupulously pious but he was still more weak than pius as weak in heart and character as in mind as destitute of ruling ideas of strength and will fluctuating at the mercy of transitory impressions or surrounding influences or positional embarrassments the name of devon air is suited to him it expresses his moral worth and his political incapacity both at once as king of ocutania in the time of charlemagne louis made himself esteemed and loved his justice his suavety his probity and his piety were pleasing to the people and his weaknesses disappeared under the strong hand of his father when he became emperor he began his reign by a reaction against the excesses real or supposed of the preceding rain charlemagne's morals were far from regular and he troubled himself but little about the license prevailing in his family or his palace at a distance he ruled with a tight and heavy hand louis established at his court for his sisters as well as his servants austere regulations he restored to the subjugated saxons certain of the rights of which charlemagne had deprived them he sent out everywhere his commissioners mesi dominici with orders to listen to complaints and redress grievances and to mitigate his father's rule which was rigorous in its application and yet insufficient to repress disturbance notwithstanding its preventive purpose and its washful supervision almost simultaneously with his succession louis committed an act more serious and compromising he had by his wife hermengaard three sons lother pepin and louis aged respectively nineteen eleven and eight in eight seventeen louise summoned at eight slush appel the general assembly of his dominions and there whilst declaring that neither to those who were wisely minded nor to him did it appear expedient to break up for the love he bear his sons and by the will of man the unity of the empire preserved by god himself he had resolved to share with his eldest son lothar the imperial throne lothar was in fact crowned emperor and his two brothers pepin and louis were crowned king in order that they might reign after their father's death and under their brother and lord lothair to wit pepin over aquitaine in a great part of southern gaulin of burgundy louis beyond the rhine over bavaria and the diverse people it's of the east of germany the rest of gaul and of germany as well as the kingdom of italy was to belong to lothair emperor and head of the frankish monarchy to whom his brothers would have to repair year by year to come to an understanding with him and receive his instructions the last name kingdom the most considerable of the three remained under the direct government of louis the debonair and at the same time of his son lother sharing the title of emperor the other two sons pepin and louis entered notwithstanding their childhood upon immediate possession the one of aquitaine and the other of bavaria under the superior authority of their father and brother the joint emperors charlemagne had vigorously maintained the unity of the empire for all that he had delegated to two of his sons pepin and louis the government of italy and aquitaine with the title of king louis the debonair whilst regulating beforehand the division of his dominion likewise desired as he said to maintain the unity of the empire but he forgot that he was no charlemagne it was not long before numerous mournful experiences showed to what extent the unity of the empire required personal superiority in the emperor and how rapid would be the decay of the fabric when there remained nothing but the title of the founder in 816 pope stephen iv came to france to consecrate louis the demon air emperor many a time already the popes had rendered the frankish kings this service and honor the franks had been proud to see their king charlemagne protecting adrian the first against the lombards then crowned emperor at rome by leo iii and then having his two sons pepin and louis crowned at rome by the same pope kings respectively of italy and avocutane on these different occasions charlemagne whilst testifying the most profound respect for the pope had in his relations with him always taken care to preserve together with his political greatness all his personal dignity but when in 8 16 the frank saw louis the pious not only go out of rem to meet stephen iv but prostrate himself from head to foot and rise only when the pope held out a hand to him the spectators felt saddened and humiliated at the side of their emperor in the posture of a penitent monk several insurrections burst out in the empire the first among the basques of aquitaine the next in italy where bernard son of pepin having after his father's death become king in 812 with the consent of his grandfather charlemagne could not quietly see his kingdom pass into the hands of his cousin lotheir at the orders of his uncle louis these two attempts were easily repressed but the third was more serious it took place in brittany amongst those populations of amorica who were still buried in their woods and who were excessively jealous of their independence in 818 they took for their king one of their principal chieftains named morven and not confining themselves to a refusal of all tribute to the king of the franks they renewed their ravages upon the frankish territories bordering on their frontier louis was at that time holding a general assembly of his dominions at ethel chappelle and count lantbert commandant of the marches of brittany came and reported to him what was going on a frankish monk named ditkar happened to be at the assembly he was a man of piety and sense a friend of peace and moreover with some knowledge of the bretton king morven as his monastery had property in the neighborhood him the emperor commissioned to convey to the king his grievances and his demands after some day's journey the monk passed the frontier and arrived at vast space enclosed on one side by a noble river and on all the others by forests and swamps hedges and ditches in the middle of this space was a large dwelling which was mormons ditka found it full of warriors the king having no doubt some expedition on hand the monk announced himself as a messenger from the emperor of the franks the style of announcement caused some confusion at first to the briton who however hasty to conceal his emotion under an air of goodwill and joyousness to impose upon his comrades the latter were got rid of and the king remained alone with a monk who explained the object of his mission he discanted upon the power of the emperor louis recounted his complaints and warned the briton kindly and in a private capacity of the danger of his situation a danger so much the greater inn that he and his people would meet with less consideration seeing they kept up the religion of their pagan forefathers morvan gave attentive ear to this sermon with his eyes fixed on the ground and his foot tapping it from time to time ditkar thought that he had succeeded but an incident supervened it was the hour when marvin's wife was accustomed to come and look for him air they retired to the nuptial couch she appeared eager to know who the stranger was what he had come for what he had said what answer he had received she preluded her questions with oglings and caresses she kissed the knees the hands the beard and the face of the king testifying her desire to be alone with him o king and glory of the mighty britons dear spouse of mine what tidings bringeth this stranger is it peace or is it war this stranger answered morven with a smile is an envoy of the franks but bring he peace or bring he war it is the affair of men alone content the with thy women's duties there upon ditka perceiving that he was countered said to morven sir king tis time that i return tell me what answer i am to take back to my sovereign leave me this night to take thought thereon replied the briton chief with a wavering heir when the morning came ditkar presented himself once more to morven whom he found up but still half drunk and full of very different sentiments from those of the night before it required some effort stupefied and tottering as he was with the effects of wine and the pleasures of the night to say to ditkar go back to thy king and tell him from me that my land was never his and that i owe him not of tribute or of submission let him reign over the franks as for me i reign over the britons if he will bring war on me he will find me ready to pay him back the monk returned to louis the debonair and rendered account of his mission war was resolved upon and the emperor collected his troops alimonians saxons thuringians burgundians and aquitanians without counting franks or gallo romans they began their march moving upon vom louis was at their head and the empress accompanied him but he left her already ill and fatigued at angier the franks entered the country of the britons searched the woods and morasses found no armed men in the open country but encountered them in scattered and scanty companies at the entrance of all the defiles on the heights commanding the pathways and wherever men could hide themselves and await the moment for appearing unexpectedly the franks heard them from amidst the heather and the brushwood uttering shrill cries to give warning one to another or to alarm the enemy the franks advanced cautiously and at last arrived at the entrance of the thick wood which surrounded marvin's abode he had not yet sent out with the pick of the warriors he had about them but at the approach of the franks he summoned his wife and his domestics and said to them defend ye well this house and these woods as for me i'm going to march forward to collect my people after which to return but not without booty and spoils he put on his armor took a javelin in each hand and mounted his horse thou seest said he to his wife these javelins i brandish i will bring them back to thee this very day died with the blood of franks farewell setting out he pierced followed by his men through the thickness of the forest and advanced to meet the franks the battle began the large numbers of the franks who covered the ground for some distance dismayed the britons and many of them fled seeking where they might hide themselves morven beside himself with rage and at the head of his most devoted followers rushed down upon the franks as if to demolish them at a single stroke and many fell beneath his blows he singled out a warrior of inferior grade towards whom he made at a gallop and insulting him by word of mouth after the ancient fashion of the celtic warriors cried frank i am going to give thee my first present a present which i have been keeping for thee a long while and which i hope thou wilt bear in mind and launched him a javelin which the other received on his shield proud britain replied the frank i received thy present and i am going to give thee mine he dug both spurs into his horse's hides and galloped down upon marvin who clad though he was in a coat of mail fell pierced by the thrust of a lance the frank had but time to dismount and cut off his head when he fell himself mortally wounded by one of morvin's young warriors but not without having in his turn dealt the other his death blow it spread on all sides that morgan is dead and the franks come thronging to the scene of the encounter there is picked up and passed from hand-to-hand ahead all bloody and fearfully disfigured dick carr the monk is called to see it and to say whether it is that of morven but he has to wash the mass of disfigurement and to partially adjust the hair before he can pronounce that it is really morven's there is then no more doubt resistance is now impossible the widow the family and the servants of morvan arrive are brought before louis the debonair except all the conditions imposed upon them and the franks withdraw with the boasts that brittany is henceforth

the carlovinians part three on arriving at angiers louis found the empress hermengaard dying and two days afterwards she was dead he had a tender heart which was not proof against sorrow and he testified a desire to abdicate and turn monk but he was dissuaded from his purpose for it was easy to influence his resolutions a little later he was advised to marry again and he yielded several princesses were introduced and he chose judith of bavaria daughter of count wealth or guelph a family already powerful and in later times celebrated judith was young beautiful witty ambitious and skilled in the art of making the gift of pleasing subserve the passion for ruling louis during his expedition into brittany had just witnessed the fatal result of a woman's empire over her husband he was destined himself to offer a more striking and more long-lived example of it in 8 23 he had by his new empress judith a son whom he called charles and who was hereafter to be known as charles the bald this son became his mother's ruling if not exclusive passion and the source of his father's woes his birth could not fail to cause ill-temper and mistrust in louie's three sons by hermingard who were already kings they had but a short time previously received the first proof of their father's weakness in 822 louis repenting of his severity towards his nephew bernard of italy whose eyes he had caused to be put out as a punishment for rebellion and who had died and consequence considered himself bound to perform at atini in the church and before the people a solemn act of penance which was creditable to his honesty and piety but the details left upon the minds of the beholders an impression unfavorable to the emperor's dignity and authority in 829 during an assembly held at verm he yielding to his wives and treaties and doubtless to his own yearnings towards his youngest son said it not the solemn act whereby in 817 he had shared his dominions amongst his three elder sons and took away from two of them in burgundy and alemanya some of the territories he had assigned to them and gave them to the boy charles for his share lothair pepin and louis thereupon revolted court rivalries were added to family differences the emperor had summoned to his side a young southern bernard by name duke of septomania and son of count william of toulouse who had gallantly fought the saracens he made him his chief chamberlain and his favorite counselor bernard was bold ambitious vain imperious and restless he removed his rivals from court and put in their places his own creatures he was accused not only of abusing the emperor's favor but even of carrying on a guilty intrigue with the empress judith there grew up against him and by consequence against the emperor the empress and their youngest son a powerful opposition in which certain ecclesiastics and amongst them bala abbot of corby cousin german but lately one of the privy counselors of charlemagne joined eagerly some had at heart the unity of the empire which louis was breaking up more and more others were concerned for the spiritual interests of the church which louis in spite of his piety and by reason of his weakness often permitted to be attacked thus strengthened the conspirators consider themselves certain of success they had the empress judith carried off and shut up in the convent of saint retigon at pottier and louis in person came to deliver himself up to them at campegna where they were assembled there they passed a decree to the effect that the power and title of emperor were transferred from louis to lother his eldest son that the act whereby a share of the empire had been but lately assigned to charles was annulled and that the act of 817 which had regulated the partition of louise dominions after his death was once more in force but soon there was a burst of reaction in favor of the emperor lothar's two brothers jealous of his late elevation made overtures to their father the ecclesiastics were a little ashamed of being mixed up in a revolt the people felt pity for the poor honest emperor and a general assembly meeting at nimagun abolished the acts of compena and restored to louis his title and his power but it was not long before there was a revolt again originating this time with pepin king of aquitaine louis fought him and gave aquitaine to charles the bald the alliance between the three sons of hermengaard was at once renewed they raised an army the emperor marched against them with his and the two hosts met between kolmar and bale in a place called le chant rouge the field of red negotiations were set on foot and louis was called upon to leave his wife judith and his son charles and put himself under the guardianship of his elder sons he refused but just when the conflict was about to commence desertion took place in louie's army most of the prelates leaks and minute arms who had accompanied him passed over to the camp of lothair and the field of red became the field of falsehood lashondu message louis left almost alone ordered his attendance to withdraw being unwilling he said that any one of them should lose life or limb on his account and surrendered to his sons they received him with great demonstrations of respect but without relinquishing the prosecution of their enterprise lothair hastily collected an assembly which proclaimed him emperor with the addition of diverse territories to the kingdoms of aquitaine and bavaria and three months afterwards another assembly meaning it compene declared the emperor louis to have forfeited the crown for having by his faults and incapacity suffered to sink so sadly low the empire which had been raised to grandeur and brought into unity by charlemagne and his predecessors louise submitted to this decision himself read out aloud in the church of saint medard at soy song but not quite unresistingly a confession innate articles of his faults and laying his baldrick upon the altar stripped off his royal robe and received from the hands of ebo archbishop of rem the grey vestment of a penitent lothair considered his father dethroned for good and himself henceforth sole emperor but he was mistaken for six years longer the scenes which have just been described kept repeating themselves again and again rivalries and secret plots began once more between the three victorious brothers and their partisans popular feeling revived in favor of louis a large portion of the clergy shared it several counts of nustria and burgundy appeared in arms in the name of the deposed emperor and the seductive and able judith came afresh upon the scene and gained over to the cause of her husband and her son a multitude of friends in 834 two assemblies one meeting at sandini and the other at theonville annulled all the acts of the assembly of compagne and for the third time put louis in possession of the imperial title and power he displayed no violence in his use of it but he was growing more and more irresolute and weak when in 838 the second of his rebellious sons pepin king of aquitaine died suddenly louis ever under the sway of judith speedily convoked at verms in 839 once mourned for the last time a general assembly whereat leaving his son louis of bavaria reduced to his kingdom in eastern europe he divided the rest of his dominions into two nearly equal parts separated by the course of the muse and the rhone between these two parts he left the choice to lothair who took the eastern portion promising at the same time to guarantee the western portion to his younger brother charles louis the germanic protested against this partition and took up arms to resist it his father the emperor set himself in motion towards the rhine to reduce him to submission but on arriving close to mayins he caught a violent fever and died on the 20th of june 840 at the castle of ingleheim on a little island in the river his last acts were a fresh proof of his goodness towards even his rebellious sons and of a solicitude for his last born he sent to louis the germanic his pardon and to lothar the golden crown and sword at the same time bidding him fulfill his father's wishes on behalf of charles and judith there is no telling whether in the credulousness of his good nature louis had at his dying hour any great confidence in the appeal he made to his son lothar and in the impression which would be produced on his other son louis of bavaria by the pardon bestowed the prayers of the dying are of little avail against violent passions and barbaric manners scarcely was louis the debonair dead when lothair was already conspiring against young charles and was in secret alliance for his despoilment with pepin ii the late king of aquitaine's son who had taken up arms for the purpose of seizing his father's kingdom in the possession of which his grandfather louis had not been pleased to confirm him charles suddenly learning that his mother judith was on the point of being besieged in portier by the aquatanians and in spite of the friendly protestations sent to him by lothair it was not long before he discovered the plot formed against him he was not wanting in shrewdness or energy and having first provided for his mother's safety he set about forming an alliance in the cause of their common interests with his other brother louis the germanic who was equally in danger from the ambition of lothair the historians of the period do not say what negotiator was employed by charles on this distant and delicate mission but several circumstances indicate that the empress judith herself undertook it that she went in quest of the king of bavaria and that it was she who with her accustomed grace and address determined him to make common cause with his younger against their eldest brother diverse incidents for a whole year the outburst of this family plot and of the war of which it was the precursor the position of the young king charles appeared for some time a very bad one but certain chieftains says the historian nithard faithful to his mother and to him and having nothing more to lose than life or limb chose rather to die gloriously than to betray their king the arrival of louis the germanic with his troops helped to swell the forces and increase the confidence of charles and it was on the 21st of june 841 exactly a year after the death of louis the debonair that the two armies that of lothair and pepin on the one side and that of charles the bald and louis the germanic on the other stood face to face in the neighborhood of the village of fontenay six leagues from auxerre on the rivulet of the audrey's never according to such evidence as is forthcoming since the battle on the plains of shaolin against the huns and that of poitiers against the saracens had so great masses of men been engaged there would be nothing untruth-like says that scrupulous authority mosher fariel in putting the whole number of combatants at 300 000 and there is nothing to show that either of the two armies was much less numerous than the other however that may be the leaders hesitated for four days to come to blows and whilst they were hesitating the old favorite not only of louis the debonair but also according to several chroniclers of the empress judith held himself aloof with his troops in the vicinity having made equal promise of assistance to both sides and waiting to govern his decision for the prospect afforded by the first conflict the battle began on the 25th of june at daybreak and was at first in favor of lothair but the troops of charles the bald recovered the advantage which had been lost by louis the germanic and the action was soon nothing but a terribly simple scene of carnage between enormous masses of men charging hand to hand again and again with a front extending over a couple of leagues before midday the slaughter the plunder the spoilation of the dead all was over the victory of charles and louie was complete the victors had retired to their camp and there remained nothing on the field of battle but corpses and thick heaps or a long line according as they had fallen in the disorder of light or steadily fighting in their ranks accursed be this day christ engelbert one of lothar's officers in rough latin be it unnumbered in the return of the year but wiped out of all remembrance be it unlit by the light of the sun be it without either dawn or twilight accursed also be this night this awful night in which fell the brave the most expert in battle einer has seen more fearful slaughter in streams of blood fell christian men the lin investments of the dead did whiten the champagne even as it is whitened by the birds of autumn in spite of this battle which appeared a decisive one lothar made zealous efforts to continue the struggle he scoured the countries wherein he hoped to find partisans to the saxons he promised the unrestricted re-establishment of their pagan worship and several of the saxon tribes responded to his appeal louis the germanic and charles the bald having information of these preliminaries resolved to solemnly renew their alliance and seven months after their victory at fontenay in february 842 they repaired both of them each with his army to argentaria on the right bank of the rhine between bale and strasbourg and there at an open-air meeting louis first addressing the chieftains about him in the german tongue said ye all know how often since our father's death lothair hath attacked us in order to destroy us this my brother and me having never been able as brothers and christians or in any just way to obtain peace from him we were constrained to appeal to the judgment of god lothar was beaten and retired whether he could with his following for we restrained by paternal affection and moved with compassion for christian people were unwilling to pursue them to extermination neither then nor four time did we demand ought else say that each of us should be maintained in his rights but he rebelling against the judgment of god ceaseth not to attack us as enemies this my brother and me and he destroyeth our peoples with fire and pillage and the sword that is the cause which hath united us afresh and as we trove that ye doubt the soundness of our alliance and our fraternal union we have resolved to bind ourselves afresh by this oath in your presence being led thereto by no prompting of wicked covetousness but only that we may secure our common advantage in case that by your aid god should cause us to obtain peace if then i violate which god forbid this oath that i'm about to take to my brother i hold you all quit of submission to me and of the faith you have sworn to me charles repeated this speech word for word to his own troops in the romance language in that idiom derided from a mixture of latin and of the tongues of ancient gaul and spoken thenceforth with varieties of dialect and pronunciation in nearly all parts of frankish gaul after this address louis pronounced and charles repeated after him each in his own tongue the oath couched in these terms for the love of god for the christian people and for our common will from this day forth and so long as god shall grant me power and knowledge i will defend this my brother and will be an aide to him in everything as one ought to defend his brother provided that he do no likewise unto me and i will never make with lothar any covenant which may be to my knowledge to the damage of this my brother when the two brothers had thus sworn the two armies officers and men took in their turn a similar oath going baal in a mass for the engagements of their kings then they took up their quarters all of them for some time between verm and miense and followed up their political proceedings with military fets precursors of the nightly tournaments of the middle ages a place of meeting was fixed says the contemporary historian knittard at a spot suitable for this kind of exercises here were drawn up on one side a certain number of combatants saxons vasconians australians or britons there were two ranged on the opposite side an equal number of warriors and the two divisions advanced each against the other as if to attack one of them with their bucklers at their backs took to flight as if to seek in the main body shelter against those who were pursuing them then suddenly facing about they dashed in pursuit of those before whom they had just been flying this sport lasted until the two kings appearing with all the youth of their suits rode up at a gallop brandishing their spears and chasing first one lot and then the other it was a fine sight to see so much temper amongst so many valiant folks for greatest were the number and the mixture of different nationalities no one was insulted or maltreated though the contrary is often the case amongst men in small numbers and known to one another after four or five months of tentative measures or of incidents which taught both parties that they could not either of them hoped to completely destroy their opponents the two allied brothers received at verdun whether they had repaired to concert their next movement a messenger from lothair with peaceful proposals which they were unwilling to reject the principle was that with the exception of italy aquitaine and bavaria to be secured without dispute to their then possessors the frankish empire should be divided into three portions that the arbiters elected to preside over the partition should swear to make it as equal as possible and that lothair should have his choice with the title of emperor about mid-june 842 the three brothers met on an island of the sun near shalom where they began to discuss questions which divided them but it was not till more than a year after in august 843 that assembling all three of them with their umpires at verdun they at last came to an agreement about the partition of the frankish empire save the three countries which it had been beforehand agreed to accept louis kept all the provinces of germany of which he was already in possession and received besides on the left bank of the rhine the towns of mayence verm and spire with the territory appertaining to them lothair for his part had the eastern belt of gaul bounded on one side by the rhine and the alps on the other by the courses of the muse the stone and the rhone starting from the confluence of the two latter rivers and further the country comprised between the muse and the shelt together with certain count ships lying to the west of that river to charles fell the rest of gaul vasconia or biscayne septomania the marches of spain beyond the pyrenees and the other countries of southern gaul which had enjoyed hitherto under the title of the kingdom of aquitaine a special government subordinated to the general government of the empire but distinct from it lost this last remnant of their gallo roman nationality and became integral portions of frankish gaul which fell by partition to charles the bald and formed one in the same kingdom under one in the same king thus fell through and disappeared in 843 by virtue of the treaty of verdun the second of charlemagne's grand designs the resuscitation of the roman empire by means of the frankish and christian masters of gaul the name of emperors still retained a certain value in the minds of the people and still remained an object of ambition to princes but the empire was completely abolished and in its stead sprang up three kingdoms independent one of another without any necessary connection or relation one of the three was thenceforth france in this great event our comprehended two facts the disappearance of the empire and the formation of the three kingdoms which took its place the first is easily explained the resuscitation of the roman empire had been a dream of ambition and ignorance on the part of a great man but a barbarian political unity and central absolute power had been the essential characteristics of that empire they became introduced and established through a long succession of ages on the ruins of the splendid roman republic destroyed by its own dissensions under favor of the still great influence of the old roman senate though fallen from its highest state and beneath the guardianship of the roman legions and imperial praetorians not one of these conditions not one of these forces was to be met with in the roman world reigned over by charlemagne the nation of the franks and charlemagne himself were but of yesterday the new emperor had neither ancient senate to hedge at the same time that it obeyed him nor old bodies of troops to support him political unity and absolute power were repugnant alike to the intellectual and to the social condition to the national manners and personal sentiments of the victorious barbarians the necessity of placing their conquests beyond the reach of a new swarm of barbarians and the personal ascendancy of charlemagne were the only things which gave his government a momentary gleam of success in the way of unity and a fascist despotism under the name of empire in 814 charlemagne had made territorial security and accomplished fact but the personal power he had exercised disappeared with him the new gallow frankish community recovered under the mighty but gradual influence of christianity its proper and natural course producing disruption into different local communities and bold struggles for individual liberties either one with another or against whosoever tried to become their master as for the second fact the formation of the three kingdoms which were the issue of the treaty of verdun various explanations have been given of it this distribution of certain peoples of western europe into three distinct and independent groups italians germans and french has been attributed at one time to a diversity of histories and manners add another to geographical causes and to what is called the rule of natural frontiers and often are still to a spirit of nationality and to differences of language let none of these causes be gainsaid they all exercised some sort of influence but they are all incomplete in themselves and far too ritalin of theoretical system it is true that germany france and italy began at that time to emerge from the chaos into which they had been plunged by barbaric invasion and the conquest of charlemagne and to form themselves into quite distinct nations but there were in each of the kingdoms of lothair of louis the germanic and of charles the bold populations widely differing in race language manners and geographical affinity and it required many great events and the lapse of many centuries to bring about the degree of national unity they now possess to say nothing touching the agency of individual and independent forces which is always considerable although so many men of intellect ignore it in the present day what would have happened had any one of the three new kings lothair or louis the germanic or charles the bald been a second charlemagne as charlemagne had been a second charles martell who can say that in such a case the three kingdoms would have taken the form they took in 843. happily or unhappily it was not so none of charlemagne's successors was capable of exercising on the events of his time by virtue of his brain and his own will any notable influence not that they were all unintelligent or timid or indolent it has been seen that louis the debonair did not lack virtues and good intentions and charles the bald was clear-sighted dexterous and energetic he had a taste for information and intellectual distinction he liked and sheltered men of learning in letters and to such purpose that instead of speaking as under charlemagne of the school of the palace people called the palace of charles the bald the palace of the school amongst the eleven kings who after him ascended the carlovitchian throne several such as louis iii and carlimon especially several such as louis iii and carloman and especially louis the ultramarine dutramer and lothair displayed on several occasions energy and courage and the kings elected at this epoch without the pale of the carlovingian dynasty udays in 887 and raoul and 923 gave proofs of a valor both discrete and effectual the karla indians did not as the merovingians did end in monkish retirement or shameful inactivity even the last of them and the only one termed sluggard louis v was getting ready when he died for an expedition in spain against the saracens the truth is that mediocre or undecided or adelphated as they may have been they all succumbed internally and externally without initiating and without resisting to the course of events and that in 987 the fall of the carlovinian line was the natural and easily accomplished consequence of the new social condition which had been preparing in france

cape part 1. the reader has just seen that 29 years after the death of charlemagne that is in 843 when by the treaty of verdun the sons of louis the debonair had divided amongst them his dominions the great empire split up into three distinct and independent kingdoms the kingdoms of italy germany and france the split did not stop there forty-five years later at the end of the ninth century shortly after the death of charles the fat the last of the carlovingians who appears to have reunited for a while all the empire of charlemagne this empire had begotten seven instead of three kingdoms those of france of navarre of provence or sisjiren burgundy of transgeran burgundy or lorraine of alemanya and of italy this is what had become of the factious and ephemeral unity of that empire of the west which charlemagne had wished to put in the place of the roman empire we will leave where they are the three distinct and independent kingdoms and turn our introspective gaze upon the kingdom of france there we recognize the same fact there the same work of dismemberment is going on about the end of the 9th century there were already 29 provinces or fragments of provinces which had become petty states the former governors of which under the names of dukes counts marquises and vi counts were pretty nearly real sovereigns 29 great fives which have played a special part in french history date back to this epic these petty states were not all of equal importance or in possession of a perfectly similar independence there were certain ties uniting them to other states resulting in certain reciprocal obligations which became the basis or one might say the constitution of the feudal community but their prevailing feature was nevertheless isolation personal existence they were really petty states begotten from the dismemberment of a great territory those local governments were formed at the expense of a central power from the end of the ninth we passed to the end of the 10th century to the epoch when the capacians take the place of the carlovingians instead of seven kingdoms to replace the empire of charlemagne there were then no more than four the kingdoms of provence and transgeran burgundy had formed by reunion the kingdom of ar the kingdom of lorraine was no more than a duchy in dispute between alemanya and france the emperor arthur the great had united the kingdom of italy to the empire of alemanya overtures had produced their effects amongst the great states but in the interior of the kingdom of france dismemberment had held on its course and instead of the 29 petty states or great fifes observable at the end of the 9th century we find at the end of the 10th 55 actually established vidae 238-244 now how was this ever increasing dismemberment accomplished what causes determined it and little by little made it the substitute for the unity of the empire two causes perfectly natural and independent of all human calculation one moral and the other political they were the absence from the minds of men of any general and dominant idea and the reflux in social relations and manners of the individual liberties but lately repressed or regulated by the strong hand of charlemagne in times of formation or transition states and governments conform to the measure one had almost said to the height of the men of the period their ideas their sentiments and their personal force of character when ideas are few and narrow when sentiments spread only over a confined circle when means of action and expansion are wanting to men communities become petty and local just as the thoughts and existence of their members are such was the state of things in the 9th and 10th centuries there was no general and fructifying idea save the christian creed no great intellectual vent no great national feeling no easy and rapid means of communication mind and life were both confined in a narrow space and encountered at every step stoppages and obstacles well nigh insurmountable at the same time by the fall of the empires of rome and of charlemagne men regained possession of the rough and ready individual liberties which were the essential characteristic of germanic banners frank's visigoths burgundians saxons lombards none of these new peoples had lived as the greeks and romans had under the sway of an essentially political idea the idea of city state and fatherland they were free men and not citizens comrades not members of one in the same public body they gave up their vagabond life they settled upon a soil conquered by themselves and partitioned amongst themselves and there they lived each by himself master of himself and all that was his family servitors husbandmen and slaves the territorial domain became the fatherland and the owner remained a free man a local and independent chieftain at his own risk in peril and this quite naturally grew up feudal france when the newcomers settled in their new abodes were no more swayed or hampered by the vain attempt to re-establish the roman empire the consequences of such a state of things and of such a disposition of persons were rapidly developed territorial ownership became the fundamental characteristic of and warranty for independence and social importance local sovereignty if not complete and absolute at least in respect of its principal rights right of making more right of judicature right of taxation and right of regulating the police became one with the territorial ownership which before long grew to be hereditary whether under the title of iu allodium it had been originally perfectly independent and exempt from any feudal tie or under the title of benefits had arisen from grants of land made by the chieftain to his followers on condition of certain obligations the offices that is the diverse functions military or civil conferred by the king on his legions also ended by becoming hereditary having become established in fact this airship in lands and local powers was soon recognized by the law a capitulary of charles the bald promulgated in 877 contains the two following provisions if after our death any one of our lieges moved by love for god and our person desire to renounce the world and if you have a son or other relative capable of serving the public wheel let him be free to transmit to him his benefices and his honor according to his pleasure if a count of this kingdom happened to die and his son be about our person we will that our son together with those of our lieges who may chance to be the nearest relatives of the deceased count as well as with the other officers of the said countship and the bishop of the diocese wherein it is situated shall provide for its administration until the death of the heretofore count shall have been announced to us and we have been unable to convert on the sun present at our court the honors wherewith his father was invested thus the king still retained the nominal right of conferring on the sun the offices or local functions of the father but he recognized in the sun the right to obtain them a host of documents testified that at this epoch when on the death of a governor of a province the king attempted to give his countship to someone else than his descendants not only did personal interest resist but such a measure was considered a violation of right under the reign of louis the stutterer son of charles the bald two of his legions wilhelm and engelshock held two townships on the confines of bavaria and at their death their offices were given to count arbo to the prejudice of their sons the children and their relatives says the chronicler taking that as a gross injustice said that matters ought to go differently and that they would die by the sword or arbo should give up the countship of their family airship in territorial ownership and their local rights whatever may have originally been their character airship in local offices or powers military or civil primarily conferred by the king and by consequence hereditary union of territorial ownership and local government under the condition a little confused and precarious of subordinate relations and duties between suzeran and vassell such was in law and in fact the feudal order of things from the 9th to the 10th century it had acquired full force this order of things being thus well defined we find ourselves face to face with an indisputable historic fact no period no system has ever in france remained so odious to the public instincts and this antipathy is not peculiar to our age nor merely the fruit of that great revolution which not long since separated as by gulf the french present from its past go back to any portion of the french history and stop where you will and you will everywhere find the feudal system considered by the mass of the population a foe to be fought and fought down at any price at all times whoever dealt it a blow has been popular in france the reasons for this fact are not all or even the chief of them to be traced to the evils which in france the people had to endure under the feudal system it is not evil plight which is most detested and feared by peoples they have more than once born faced and almost rooted and there are woeful epics the memory of which has remained dear it is in the political character of feudalism in the nature and shape of its power that we find lurking that element of popular aversion which in france at least it has never ceased to inspire it was a confederation of petty sovereigns of petty despots unequal amongst themselves and having one towards another certain duties and rights but invested in their own domains over their personal and direct subjects with arbitrary and absolute power that is the essential element of the feudal system therein it differs from every other aristocracy every other form of government there has been no scarcity in this world of aristocracies and despotisms there have been peoples arbitrarily governed nay absolutely possessed by a single man by a college of priests by a body of patricians but none of these despotic governments was like the feudal system in the case where the sovereign power has been placed in the hands of a single man the condition of the people has been servile and woeful at the bottom the feudal system was somewhat better and it will presently be explained why meanwhile it must be acknowledged that the condition often appeared less burdensome and obtained more easy acceptance than the feudal system it was because under the great absolute monarchies men did nevertheless obtain some sort of equality and tranquility a shameful equality and a fatal tranquility no doubt but such as peoples are sometimes contended with under the dominance of certain circumstances or in the last gasp of their existence liberty equality and tranquility were all alike wanting from the 10th to the 13th century to the inhabitants of each lord's domains their sovereign was at their very doors and none of them was hidden from him or beyond reach of his mighty arm of all tyrannies the worst is that which can thus keep account of its subjects and which sees from its seat the limits of its empire the caprices of the human will then show themselves in all their intolerable extravagance and moreover with irresistible promptness it is then too that inequality of conditions makes itself more rudely felt riches might independence every advantage and every right present themselves every instant to the gaze of misery weakness and servitude the inhabitants of fives could not find consolation in the bosom of tranquility incessantly mixed up in the quarrels of their lord a prey to his neighbor's devastations they led a life still more precarious and still more restless than that of the lords themselves and they had to put up at one in the same time with the presence of war privilege and absolute power nor did the rule of feudalism differ less from that of a college of priests or a senate of patricians than from the despotism of an individual in the two former systems we have an aristocratic body governing the mass of the people in the feudal system we have an aristocracy resolved into individuals each of whom governs on his own private account a certain number of persons dependent upon him alone be the aristocratic body a clergy its power has its root in creeds which are common to itself and its subjects now in every creed common to those who command and those who obey there is a moral tie an element of sympathetic equality and on the part of those who obey a tacit adhesion to the rule be it a senator patricians that reigns it cannot govern so capriciously so arbitrarily as an individual there are differences and discussions in the very bosom of the government there may be nay there always are formed factions parties which in order to arrive at their own ends strive to conciliate the favor of the people sometimes take in hand its interests and however bad may be its condition the people by sharing in its master's rivalries exercises some sort of influence over its own destiny feudalism was not properly speaking an aristocratic government a senate of kings to use the language used by cenius to pieris it was a collection of individual despotisms exercised by isolated aristocrats each of whom being sovereign in his own domains had to give no account to another and asked nobody's opinion about his conduct toward his subjects is it astonishing that such a system incurred on the part of the people's more hatred than even those which had reduced them to a more monotonous and more lasting servitude there was despotism just as in pure monarchies and there was privilege just as in the very closest aristocracies and both obtruded themselves in the most offensive and so to speak crude form despotism was not tapered off by means of the distant and elevation of a throne and privilege did not veil itself behind the majesty of a large body both were the appurtenances of an individual ever present and ever alone ever at his subject's doors and never called upon in dealing with their lot to gather his peers around him and now we will leave the subjects in the case of feudalism and consider the masters the owners of the fives and their relations one with another we here behold quite a different spectacle we see liberties rights and guarantees which not only give protection and honor to those who enjoy them but of which the tendency and effect are open to the subject population and outlet towards a better future it could not in fact be otherwise for on the one hand feudal society was not wanting indignity and glory and on the other the feudal system did not as the theocracy of egypt or the despotism of asia did condemn its subjects irretrievably to slavery it oppressed them but they ended by having the power as well as the will to go free it is the fault of pure monarchy to set up power so high and encompass it with such splendor that the possessor's head is turned and that those who are beneath it dare scarcely to look upon it the sovereign thinks himself a god and the people fall down and worship him but it was not so in society under the owners of fights the grandeur was neither dazzling nor unapproachable it was but a short step from vassal to suzeran they lived familiarly one with another without any possibility that superiority should think itself illimitable or subordination think itself servile thence came that extension of the domestic circle that a nobleman of personal service from which sprang one of the most generous sentiments of the middle ages fealty which reconciled the dignity of the man with the devotion of the vassal further it was not from a numerous aristocratic senate but from himself and almost from himself alone that every possessor of fives derived his strength and his luster isolated as he was in his domains it was for him to maintain himself therein to extend them to keep his subjects submissive and his vassals faithful and to correct those who were wanting in obedience to him or who ignored their duties as members of the fetal hierarchy it was as it were a people consisting of scattered citizens of whom each ever armed accompanied by his following or entrenched in his castle kept watch himself over his own safety in his own rights relying far more on his own courage and his own renown than on the protection of the public authorities such a condition bears less resemblance to an organized and settled society than to a constant prospect of peril and war but the energy and the dignity of the individual were kept up in it and a more extended and better regulated society might issue there from and it did issue this society of the future was not slow to sprout and grow in the midst of that feudal system so turbulent so oppressive so detested for five centuries from the invasion of the barbarians to the fall of the carlovingians france presents the appearance of being stationary in the middle of chaos over this long dark space of anarchy feudalism is slowly taking shape at the expense at one time of liberty at another of order not as a real rectification of the social condition but as the only order of things which could possibly acquire fixity as in fact a sort of unpleasant but necessary alternative no sooner is the feudal system in force then with its victory scarcely secured it is attacked in the lower grades by the mass of the people attempting to regain certain liberties ownerships and rights and in the highest by royalty laboring to recover its public character to become once more the head of a nation it is no longer the case of free men in a vague and dubious position unsuccessfully defending against the nomination of the chieftains whose lands they inhabit the wreck of their independence whether golic or roman or barbaric it is the case of burgesses agriculturalists and serps who know well what their grievances and who their oppressors are and who are working to get free it is no longer the case of a king doubtful about his title and the nature of his power at one time a chieftain of warriors at another the anointed of the most high here a mayor of the palace of some sluggard barbarian there the heir of the emperors of rome a sovereign tossing about confusedly amidst followers or servitors eager at one time to invade his authority add another to render themselves completely isolated it is the case of one of the premier feudal lords exerting himself to become the master of all to change his suzerainty into sovereignty thus in spite of the servitude into which the people had sunk at the end of the 10th century from this moment the enfranchisement of the people makes way in spite of the weakness or rather nullity of the regal power at the same epic from this moment the regal power begins to gain ground that monarchical system which the genius of charlemagne could not found kings far inferior to charlemagne will little by little make triumphant those liberties and those guarantees which the german warriors were incapable of transmitting to a well-regulated society the commonality will regain one after another nothing but feudalism could have sprung from the womb of barbarism but scarcely is feudalism established when we see monarchy and liberty nascent and growing in its womb end of chapter 13 part 1. you

Wine Tasting with Simon Woods: Chilean Chardonnay
hi there simon from simonwards.com uh i'm tasting six uh chili and chardonnays so why have i only got five bottles in front of me well i have a confession to make uh i was uh last night i was looking for a glass of something to uh maybe have while i was cooking and i opened a bottle of uh the duet chardonnay uh and all the details are on the screen now and uh it was very nice maybe on just a little bit too oily and pineapple chunky and i thought oh yes i'll i'll i'll do the rest of it when i'm doing the tasting tomorrow and then i drop the bottle and it's smashed oh well so instead of that being one number one my wine number one is a hacienda arrocano chadney reserver from the 2011 vintage uh in conchagua uh now this is the wine from the uh luton stable uh so francois one of the fronts of our lorton wines let's give it a whirl strange there's an almost fennel like herby character coming through here um the it's 13 alcohol but it actually smells like it's a bit fresher and leaner and tighter than that um fruit wise it's that just ripe pineapple and quite a lot of citrus coming through and maybe a bit of nectarine in there somewhere tied into the wine um kolchako is not not the best known place for for chardonnay and there's some bits of it that are certainly too hot but it feels like here uh it's it's it doesn't feel like the grapes have got to go too warm there is a richness about the wine that i feel the uh the weight of the fruit coming through now but still it finishes fresh and it's got this uh herby um i mean it's they're in south africa they talk about uh finbos and there's almost a little bit of that uh that finn boss uh uh yeah i'm sorry rubosh not finn boss is it rhubarb i think it's finn boss uh character a character coming through good uh but i would almost like to see uh that style in somewhere where it feels a little bit cooler and uh because that the finish i'm left with is it's almost like getting bigger and bigger rather than leaving me without something that's lean and precise so nice start but um good but not great uh wine number two um so we are uh with iras here uh and it's their wild fermented chardonnay uh from casablanca now i i'm not sure whether they'd also do a wild ferment chardonnay from aconcagua costa not sure but the next one's a con cargo costa but so maybe we'll talk about that when we get on to that but this is 2011 uh from erazer is this is one of the first chardonnays to uh to really show that chili could do something more than just rather blobby oaky wines uh and uh here i stick my nose in and it's it's maybe not as out and out rich and creamy as it used to be but it feels like it's going to be more precise there's a freshness about it there is what i call a strawberry mivi character almost like red berry fruit touch of vanilla and a creaminess but there's also this citrus and yeah the citrus zestiness that smells like he's going to keep it all fresh nice mixture of richness and leanness how does that make sense uh well the richness comes like a toasty character from a bit of the oak there's a little bit of the malolactic character still in there adding a buttery uh character i think there's some it's been aged in on leaves in the barrel that's added a nutty nuttiness and then there's this fruit and there's this quite voluptuous character um so a creamy strawberry mivi lolli red berries with a bit of vanilla in there but then there's this citrus precision that uh rains all those rich flavors in and stops them getting a bit too wobbly maybe that's what i missed in the first one there was uh it had the rich flavors but not something to clamp them all together here they've done it rather nicely and uh the wine's looking good as a result one number three uh so this is um this is from akon kagua costa and it's from the same uh same umbrella organization uh this is uh arabella chardonnay uh 2011. um costa is um i mean there's where irasa is has their base and it's known for quite full throaty reds uh and but uh here we're much closer to the coast a lot cooler there and so good for white varieties and i think they've got a bit of pinot noir there let's see what this wine is like well it's strange because uh there's a i was talking about richness and leanness on the on the previous one here it feels like a similar thing um i don't know whether they've they've got newer oak here but there's i get more toasty oak character coming through uh but behind it it feels like there's a more taut precise wine than than than the casablanca one from eraser is it smells good um let's see what it tastes like good elevars there elivage is the art of turning a gawkey young wine into a grown-up friendly but um fully rounded individual and i think they've done that well here yes and it's strange i noticed the the oak aromas but when i come to taste it uh the oak sort of no it doesn't go too much into the background it's still there but you've got more of these oatmeal a bit of pineapple citrus green apple um it's uh i i i'd be fascinated to watch how these two develop from vintage to vintage and uh uh and also i'll have i'll i'll put up on the screen whether ira serious does a uh um a wild ferment from cargo costa i've probably even done one of them in one of my videos uh but um here this feels um this feels like something i i want to sort of get a little bit excited about it's it's it's nice wine um and it's precise it's um maybe maybe it's not the most complex of wine but it's a darn good drink hey what more do you want from a wine let's try one number four one number four is uh vinaleda a single vineyard chardonnay from the leder valley so not too far from casablanca but closer to the coast here and uh so probably a little actually i don't know whether it's close to the coast and the aconcagua costa vineyards i'll be interesting to we're not all that interesting but it will be vaguely interesting to uh uh to work that out uh but uh let's be making a a name for itself with uh with with its uh uh white wines and it and also it's uh sarah and it's pinot noir uh so these last two are from later but anyway let's d this later venulader was one of the pioneers there let's dig in and see where we get to now after the previous two being on that uh slightly uh oak influenced side here i've got a feeling that there is they have used oak here but um it's very much in the background uh it feels like this is a more taut precise wine um and uh one that whereas the previous two looked pretty nice now um from the smell of this this is a wine that uh there's still got some uncurling to do but it feels like the weight is going to be worthwhile let's taste it well i never put out 14 alcohol there's a crispness and and fine structure going going all the way through it um just looked on the back and it does say yes it has been barrel matured but um i don't know how that manifests itself apart from maybe in a general rounded confidence of the wine it feels like there has been some quite uh taut precise guy keep using those words but those are the things that i think about something fine bone high cheekboned wine that has just had maybe some of its more angular features um softened by it by the time in oak uh pretty classy stuff um actually well as i say pretty classy um it's it the fruit flavors are maybe better well the flavors in general may be just a little bit um simple it's being slightly unfair on it it's very nice wine but maybe i want a little bit more of something beyond the fruit and beyond the elivage flavors coming through i don't get too much character that i can attribute to a place apart from the place that that's rather cool and gives wine with the precise acidity um but tasty wine have another sweet final one um so this is so we're still in later uh this is santorita meadow media real both these two 2011 vintage this is on ground reservoir but uh in in spain grand reserve rioja has to be in barrel for two years i wouldn't i don't think i'd put these in barrel for two years anyway let's have a seat now this does seem a little bit more uh there was i was talking about the precision on on the uh the uh the vineyard later on this feels we've got that but it also feels we've got a few more layers of flavor fruit wise and maybe there's some apricot in here there's a seems like there's a touch of cashew in there and so it feels like it's going to have the crispness but yeah maybe a few more layers let's see yeah i've got lime peach cashew uh this apricot a bit of fresh apricot dried apricot nectarines that type of thing uh it's a slightly richer wine than the uh the vinailader maybe it doesn't have the the cheekbones of the uh of the later interesting contrast between those two i mean there are times when i'd uh prefer one at times when i prefer the other they're both pretty good actually they've all been pretty good and it's been a nice flight i mean i i wasn't a huge fan of the aracano um it was it was okay but uh the other four a rather good advert for chilean chardonnay see you soon you

there who literally throws it three times and he was like you know what he deserves more more even though he's dead and why don't clean imma kill back Starla computer at him again here you do the pot Oh phone call oh now he's suffocating them are choking or actually okays not some people the clock oh my god everyone hates the boss jeez thanks Doug and now he's getting killed for all god that was for her oh thanks Jesus office looks like you got polka dots everywhere or chicken pox new golf club can't get the golf club yeah let's go golfing bro you want a golf pro this golf bro you're not going anywhere until you fit it get your cloth but we're gonna go golfing bro he's literally acting like course he's like running everywhere you're running to a wall stupid he's literally running into a wall yeah I think we have like 11 or 12 left so we're almost there filing cabinet he literally he tries to break it off that face when the route when you can't when you can't break it I guess look at the positive phase oh if you can't bring the filing cabinet to him bring him to the filing cabinet bed and end well just trust listening to kpop or something like that Oh keyboard okay we have nine more left his eye please no a big fan when you break all the keys and now for the oh oh he's making them like choke on that or eat it oh are you gonna play pac-man now may be so weird if like he's just playing pacman you and those he uses in the broken beat ya keyboard through his mouth and just takes it i distress playing um I don't think I did this one stop probably bro when you're interrupted and distracted as a dude he's like I'm [ __ ] triangle Luminati please don't do this to me I big fans you walk me his face though is like joy Karry crap do I really care it's still going all we have to press a thing oh I should've seen out i'm actually looking away to scream as we see i'm just looking around not at the screen because that is rude disgusting but it's over i want to look up and see the mess you made oh that look up holy crap what the crap all the crap is had just fell out what the crap okay we have eight more left mikham it what Oh in this game with 24 7 ways on android well guys if you want to play it on android DS you heard it you just play twice on what's up crap is he beating them with with a flower oh those bottle kind of look like a flower fun of that is memory dude it's being the crap out of the man with flowers okay no one it's there in your no one no worry I don't know what that means I guess like I helped her anger management okay trash can let's trash can them wait oh we already did the trashcan looks like I say you shouldn't be just like standing there telling we're gonna but you're not like assume or so that's how you just run you run the heck out of there that wasn't black monsters man what is he doing you ok scissors oh no please don't tell me oh crap holy cow that is and I just had breakfast great so our room is covered in blood and now will seem twenty one pilots great just great no there's nothing more one in life but just great no no no no no we do that we did the ruler who did that of the cup okay so we have to find four more I'm never going back to pac-man okay so we did that yeah we did it 20 the Lambs laughs next 10 gram we lamp the crap out of him he doing what is he doing with that lamp okay well I'm gonna go drink some bleach now be right back no okay guys i'm back from jeans a lot of bleach don't actually drink bleach oh just kidding I was just getting don't actually drink bleach see we got we got the bottle we have that there's the next phone wrong cough all know it's come to my attention that you're not measure shop you'll need a pencil we could take a stencil and we just stabbed him in the neck yep I think okay so basically the best way to get rid of how to get away with murder it just put the body right in front of your near you listen to twenty one pilots and let a guy wearing full black kill or take the body away again with no overtime your project has to be completely redone person I might do that Hank lip oh we need one more to end this off what are you doing recently merry-go-rounds with them all the thing got stuck in his back to the neck little bit there's no reason when we take hold heals the his mp3 player is fona it looks like a apple juice carton I don't know if y'all do if it does look like apple juice carton in the content blowed please say it's apple juice corn because it probably is a apple juice carton no no no no wrong wrong wrong it's come to

Lithuania closes two Belarus border crossings
[Music] Lithuania said on August 16th it will close two of the country's six border crossing points with Belarus because the geopolitical environment has become more threatening Deputy transport Minister Amy vasio kavishyu told a council of ministers just weeks after Russian Wagner group mercenaries took refuge in the neighboring country the two Rural Crossing points which were not used by commercial vehicles will be closed from Friday Lithuania announced Poland has closed all but one border crossing point with Belarus this year following the imprisonment of a journalist of Polish origin and expulsions of Polish diplomats and last week announced plans to move ten thousand additional troops to the Belarus border to support existing guards the country said in July it had concerns that the presence of Wagner fighters in Belarus could lead to increased tension on its borders the longer okay [Music]

Dr. Ian Smith NY Times Author SHRED
[Music] hi i'm valder beebe i'm the host and a visionary of that celebrity interview good morning and welcome to the founder baby show welcome back to the belder bb show i have my next guest for you i get to speak and present dr ian smith now you know he's the author of the new york times bestselling book shred the revolutionary diet today though he wants us to show a little love to some you know doctors and we're going to get some details from him dr smith welcome to the valder bb show always great to be with you thanks for having me well you know you're an emmy award-winning uh syndicated uh uh talk show host you co-hosted the doctors one of our favorites you were with president obama in that second term trying to get us as healthy as possible so you come well qualified to talk about supporting doctors what can you help us with well i think that it's important for us to show our support for our front line heroes we need them more than ever mucinex actually has started a great campaign called ally of doctors and this campaign is about showing them that we love them that we need them uh that we support them uh and so we want patients basically to leave feedback for their doctors you know go to healthgrades.com and leave a feedback so your doctor can learn and can improve or to understand what they're doing well what they're not doing so well in the last 12 months valder only 16 of patients actually left feedback and you know you know for doctors it's important feedback we we can understand our strengths and our weaknesses uh and make changes as necessary but also by the way for other patients just like we buy everything online we read reviews first same thing with your doctor you know you want to make sure that the fit is right for you so if people can review their doctors and show that support that's amazing you know we're at home dr ian we're stuck at home and let's talk about a little bit of what are some of the preventive measures that we can uh take while we're at home to stay healthy yeah you talk about preventive measures they are so critical during this time we're in cold and flu season on top of being in the middle of the pandemic so people really need to just really follow simple things like sneezing and coughing into a tissue if you don't have that using the inside of your elbow washing your hands for 20 seconds with warm water and soap can go a long way in getting rid of those germs as well using hand sanitizer if you don't have the water and soap um you know at your disposal also by the way understanding cold and flu symptoms things like fever cough chest congestion headache uh these things sore throat these things are very common with cold and flu and velder unfortunately we cannot cure uh the common cold or flu but we can find some relief from the symptoms using over-the-counter medications mucinex has something called fast max all-in-one which is a multi-system uh relief situation that for your worst cold and flu symptoms that can be helpful people need to understand valve i say this on i show the doctors all the time make sure you follow the pre prescribed doses that is there by the manufacturer uh because that's important and if symptoms still persist you know don't give up call your local health care professional and let them know what's going on particularly now in the middle of the pandemic i'd like to get your personal and your professional view on what do you believe about wearing masks this seems to be such a political thing and it seems to be such a simple thing but what do you think belder it is simple number one and it is apolitical there are no politics around wearing a mask this is all about making sure that we are protecting ourselves and protecting others and simply wearing a mask has been shown to really prevent the um spread of germs that lead to all the different problems that we can be experiencing so i want to encourage people please wear your mask by the way not just over your mouth but please we're also over your nose the virus lives in the back of your nose uh and we spread not just through our mouth but through our nose so mask wearing is simple uh it's important and it has nothing to do with politics thank you so much for that dr ian because my goal is to try and help educate my listening audience they take the time to tune in and i want them to have the best information and once again ally of doctors what do you want us to do and where do you want us to go i want you to go to healthgrades.com i want you to leave that that that review for your doctor mucinex is going to donate twenty dollars for every first review that you do to united negro college fund up to twenty thousand dollars to the end of 2020 to help foster and empower our next generation of frontline heroes i love it information with the purpose and the cause dr ian smith thank you so much for being my guest on the valder bb show i look forward to great things from you thanks elder please be safe nice talking to you again happy holidays you too hi i'm valder beebe i host the valder bb show broadcast on radio and television and this is my phone pouch my phone pouch is a great invention it allows me to go hands-free pocket free purse free even belt free head on over to myphonepouch.com

Distillation | Wikipedia audio article
distillation as the process of separating the components or substances from a liquid mixture by using selective boiling and condensation distillation may result in essentially complete separation nearly pure components or it may be a partial separation that increases the concentration of selected components in the mixture in either case the process exploits differences in the volatility of the mixtures components in industrial chemistry distillation as a unit operation of practically universal importance but it is a physical separation process not a chemical reaction distillation has many applications for example distillation of fermented products produces distilled beverages with a high alcohol content or separates out other fermentation products of commercial value distillation as an effective and traditional method of desalination in the fossil fuel industry oil stabilization as a form of partial distillation that reduces vapor pressure of crude oil thereby making it safe for storage and transport as well as reducing the atmospheric emissions of volatile hydrocarbons in midstream operations at oil refineries distillation as a major class of operation for transforming crude oil into fuels and chemical feedstocks cryogenic distillation leads to the separation of air into its components notably oxygen nitrogen and argon for industrial use in the field of industrial chemistry large amounts of crude liquid products of chemical synthesis are distilled to separate them either from other products from impurities or from unreacted starting materials and installation used for distillation especially of distilled beverages is called a distillery the distillation equipment at a distillery as a still you topic history in 1975 Paulo Rove SD 1902 to 1983 a chemist and pharmacist who became known as father of phyto cosmetics discovered a terracotta distillation apparatus in the Indus Valley in West Pakistan which dates from around 3000 BC early evidence of distillation was found on Akkadian tablets dated circa 1200 BC describing perfumery operations the tablets provided textual evidence that an early primitive form of distillation was known to the Babylonians of ancient Mesopotamia early evidence of distillation was also found related to alchemists working in Alexandria in Roman Egypt in the first century distilled water has been in use since at least C 200 when Alexander of Aphrodisias described the process work on distilling other liquids continued in early Byzantine Egypt under Zosima sup innopolis in the 3rd century distillation was practiced in the ancient Indian subcontinent which is evident from baked clay retorts and receivers found at Taxila and Charsadda in modern Pakistan dating back to the early centuries of the Common Era these Gandhara stills were only capable of producing very weak liquor as there was no efficient means of collecting the vapors at low heat distillation in China may have begun during the eastern Han Dynasty 1st 2nd centuries but the distillation of beverages began in the Jin 12th 13th centuries and southern Song 10th 13th centuries dynasties according to archaeological evidence clear evidence of the distillation of alcohol comes from the arab chemist al Kindi in 9th century Arak the process later spread to Italy where it was described by the school of salerno in the 12th century fractional distillation was developed by Tadeo alder OT in the 13th century a still was found in an archaeological site in Ching langue Hebei province in dating back to the 12th century distilled beverages were common during the Yuan Dynasty 13th 14th centuries in 1500 German alchemists Hieronymous Braunschweig published library de Arte dusty on d the book of the art of distillation the first book solely dedicated to the subject of distillation followed in 1512 by a much expanded version in 1651 John French published the art of distillation the first major English compendium on the practice but it has been claimed that much of it derives from bran Sheikh's work this includes diagrams with people in them showing the industrial rather than bench scale of the operation as alchemy evolved into the science of chemistry vessels called retorts became used for distillation x' both alembics and retorts are forms of glassware with long necks pointing to the side at a downward angle to act as air cooled condensers to condense the distillate and let it drip downward for collection later copper alembics were invented riveted joints were often kept tight by using various mixtures for instance a dough made of rye flour these alembics often featured a cooling system around the beak using cold water for instance which made the condensation of alcohol more efficient these were called pot stills today the retorts and pot stills have been largely supplanted by more efficient distillation methods in most industrial processes however the pot still is still widely used for the elaboration of some fine alcohols such as cognac Scotch whisky Irish whiskey tequila and some vodkas pot stills made of various materials wood clay stainless steel are also used by bootleggers in various countries small pot stills are also sold for use in the domestic production of flour water or essential oils early forms of distillation involved batch processes using one vapor as a and one condensation purity was improved by further distillation of the condensate greater volumes were processed by simply repeating the distillation chemists reportedly carried out as many as 500 to 600 distillation x' in order to obtain a pure compound in the early 19th century the basics of modern techniques including preheating and reflux were developed in 1822 Anthony Perrier developed one of the first continuous stills and then in 1826 Robert Stein improved that design to make his patent still in 1830 Aeneas coffee got a patent for improving the design even further coffees continuous still may be regarded as the archetype of modern petrochemical units the French engineer Armand Saval developed his steam regulator around 1846 in 1877 Ernest Solvay was granted a US patent for a tray column for ammonia distillation and the same in subsequent years saw developments in this theme for oils and spirits with the emergence of chemical engineering as a discipline at the end of the 19th century scientific rather than empirical methods could be applied the developing petroleum industry in the early 20th century provided the impetus for the development of accurate design methods such as the McCabe Thiele method by Ernest Tila and the Fenske equation the availability of powerful computers also allowed direct computer simulations of distillation columns topic applications of distillation the application of distil nation can roughly be divided into four groups laboratory-scale industrial distillation distillation of herbs for perfumery and medicinals herbal distillate and food processing the latter two are distinctively different from the former to in that distillation as not used as a true purification method but more to transfer all volatile from the source materials to the distillate in the processing of beverages and herbs the main difference between laboratory-scale distillation and industrial distillation is that laboratory-scale distillation is often performed on a batch basis whereas industrial distillation often occurs continuously in batch distillation the composition of the source material the vapors of the distilling compounds and the distillate change during the distillation in batch distillation a still is charged supplied with a batch of feed mixture which is then separated into its component fractions which are collected sequentially from most volatile to less volatile with the bottoms remaining least or non-volatile fraction removed at the end the still can then be recharged and the process repeated in continuous distillation the source materials vapors and distillate are kept at a constant composition by carefully replenishing the source material and removing fractions from both vapor and liquid in the system this results in a more detailed control of the separation process topic idealised distillation model the boiling point of a liquid as the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the pressure around the liquid enabling bubbles to form without being crushed a special case as the normal boiling point where the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the ambient atmospheric pressure it is a common misconception that in a liquid mixture at a given pressure each component boils at the boiling point corresponding to the given pressure allowing the vapors of each component to collect separately and purely however this does not occur even in an idealized system idealized models of distillation are essentially governed by raoult's law and dalton's law and assume that vapor liquid equilibrium raoult's law states that the vapor pressure of a solution is dependent on 1 the vapor pressure of each chemical component in the solution and 2 the fraction of solution each component makes up a KA the mole fraction this law applies to ideal solutions or solutions that have different components but whose molecular interactions are the same as are very similar to pure solutions dalton's law states that the total pressure is the sum of the partial pressures of each individual component in the mixture when a multi-component liquid is heated the vapor pressure of each component will rise thus causing the total vapor pressure to rise when the total vapor pressure reaches the pressure surrounding the liquid boiling occurs and liquid turns to gas throughout the bulk of the liquid note that a mixture with a given composition has one boiling point at a given pressure when the components are mutually soluble a mixture of constant composition does not have multiple boiling points an implication of one boiling point is that lighter components never cleanly boil first a boiling point all volatile components boil but for a component its percentage in the vapor as the same as its percentage of the total vapor lighter components have a higher partial pressure and thus are concentrated in the vapor but heavier volatile components also have a smaller partial pressure and necessarily vaporize also albeit at a lower concentration in the vapor indeed batch distillation and fractionation succeed by varying the composition of the mixture in batch distillation the batch vaporizes which changes its composition in fractionation liquid higher in the fractionation column contains more lights and boils at lower temperatures therefore starting from a given mixture it appears to have a boiling range instead of a boiling point although this is because its composition changes each intermediate mixture has its own singular boiling point the idealized model is accurate in the case of chemically similar liquids such as benzene and toluene in other cases severe deviations from raoult's law and dalton's law are observed most famously in the mixture of ethanol and water these compounds when heated together form an azeotrope which is when the vapor phase and liquid phase contain the same composition although there are computational methods that can be used to estimate the behavior of a mixture of arbitrary components the only way to obtain accurate vapor liquid equilibrium data as by measurement it is not possible to completely purify a mixture of components by distillation as this would require each component in the mixture to have a 0 partial pressure if ultra pure products are the goal then further chemical separation must be applied when a binary mixture is vaporized and the other component eg a salt has 0 partial pressure for practical purposes the process is simpler you topic batch or differential distillation heating an ideal mixture of two volatile substances a and B with a having the higher volatility or a lower boiling point in a batch distillation setup such as in an apparatus depicted in the opening figure until the mixture is boiling results in a vapor above the liquid that contains a mixture of a and B the ratio between a and B in the vapor will be different from the ratio in the liquid the ratio in the liquid will be determined by how the original mixture was prepared while the ratio in the vapor will be enriched in the more volatile compound a due to raoult's law see above the vapor goes through the condenser and is removed from the system this in turn means that the ratio of compounds in the remaining liquid is now different from the initial ratio ie more enriched in B than in the starting liquid the result is that the ratio in the liquid mixture is changing becoming richer in component B this causes the boiling point of the mixture to rise which results in a rise in the temperature in the vapor which results in a changing ratio of a B in the gas phase as distillation continues there is an increasing proportion of B in the gas phase this results in a slowly changing ratio of a B in the distillate if the difference in vapor pressure between the two components a and B as large generally expressed as the difference in boiling points the mixture in the beginning of the distillation is highly enriched in component a and when component a has distilled off the boiling liquid as enriched in component B topic continuous distillation continuous distillation as an ongoing distillation in which a liquid mixture is continuously without interruption fed into the process and separated fractions are removed continuously as output streams occur over time during the operation continuous distillation produces a minimum of two output fractions including at least one volatile distillate fraction which has boiled and been separately captured as a vapor and then condensed to a liquid there is always a bottoms or residue fraction which is the least volatile residue that has not been separately captured as a condensed vapor continuous distillation differs from batch distillation in the respect that concentrations should not change over time continuous distillation can be run at a steady state for an arbitrary amount of time for any source material of specific composition the main variables that affect the purity of products in continuous distillation are the reflux ratio and the number of theoretical equilibrium stages in practice determined by the number of trays or the height of packing reflux as a flow from the condenser back to the column which generates a recycle that allows a better separation with a given number of trays equilibrium stages are ideal steps where compositions achieve vapor liquid equilibrium repeating the separation process and allowing better separation given a reflux ratio a column with a high reflux ratio may have fewer stages but it reflux is a large amount of liquid giving a wide column with a large holdup conversely a column with a low reflux ratio must have a large number of stages thus requiring a taller column topic general improvements both batch and continuous distillation z' can be improved by making use of a fractionating column on top of the distillation flask the column improves separation by providing a larger surface area for the vapor and condensate to come into contact this helps it remain at equilibrium for as long as possible the column can even consist of small subsystems trays or dishes which all contain an enriched boiling liquid mixture all with their own vapour liquid equilibrium there are differences between laboratory scale and industrial scale fractionating columns but the principles are the same examples of laboratory scale fractionating columns in increasing efficiency include air condenser the grow column usually laboratory scale only packed column packed with glass beads metal pieces or other chemically inert material spinning band distillation system topic laboratory-scale distillation laboratory-scale distillation czar almost exclusively run as batch distillation x' the device used in distillation sometimes referred to as a still consists at a minimum of a reboiler or pot in which the source material is heated a condenser in which the heated vapor is cooled back to the liquid state and a receiver in which the concentrated are purified liquid called the distillate is collected several laboratory-scale techniques for distillation exist see also distillation types topic simple distillation in simple distillation the vapor is immediately channeled into a condenser consequently the distal a does not peer but rather its composition as identical to the composition of the vapors at the given temperature and pressure that concentration follows raoult's law as a result simple distillation as effective only when the liquid boiling points differ greatly rule of thumb as 25 degrees Celsius or when separating liquids from non volatile solids or oils for these cases the vapor pressures of the components are usually different enough that the distillate may be sufficiently pure for its intended purpose topic fractional distillation for many cases the boiling points of the components in the mixture will be sufficiently close that raoult's law must be taken into consideration therefore fractional distillation must be used in order to separate the components by repeated vaporization condensation cycles within a packed fractionating column this separation by successive distillation x' is also referred to as rectification as the solution to be purified as heated its vapors rise to the fractionating column as it rises it cools condensing on the condenser walls and the surfaces of the packing material here the condensate continues to be heated by the rising hot vapors it vaporizes once more however the composition of the fresh vapours are determined once again by raoult's law each vaporization condensation cycle called a theoretical plate will yield a pure solution of the more volatile component in reality each cycle at a given temperature does not occur at exactly the same position in the fractionating column theoretical plate is thus a concept rather than an accurate description more theoretical plates lead to better separations a spinning band distillation system uses a spinning band of Teflon or metal to force the rising vapors into close contact with the descending condensate increasing the number of theoretical plates topic steam distillation like vacuum distillation steam distillation as a method for distilling compounds which are heat sensitive the temperature of the steam is easier to control than the surface of a heating element and allows a high rate of heat transfer without heating at a very high temperature this process involves bubbling steam through a heated mixture of the raw material by raoult's law some of the target compound will vaporize in accordance with its partial pressure the vapor mixture is cooled and condensed usually yielding a layer of oil and a layer of water steam distillation of various aromatic herbs and flowers can result in two products an essential oil as well as a watery herbal distillate the essential oils are often used in perfumery and aromatherapy while the watery distillates have many applications in aromatherapy food processing and skincare topic vacuum distillation you some compounds have very high boiling points to boil such compounds it is often better to lower the pressure at which such compounds are boiled instead of increasing the temperature once the pressure is lowered to the vapor pressure of the compound at the given temperature boiling and the rest of the distillation process can commence this technique is referred to as vacuum distillation and it is commonly found in the laboratory in the form of the rotary evaporator this technique is also very useful for compounds which boil beyond their decomposition temperature at atmospheric pressure and which would therefore be decomposed by any attempt to boil them under atmospheric pressure molecular distillation as vacuum distillation below the pressure of 0.01 Torr 0.01 tor as one order of magnitude above high vacuum where fluids are in the free molecular flow regime ie the mean free path of molecules as comparable to the size of the equipment the gaseous phase no longer exert significant pressure on the substance to be evaporated and consequently rate of evaporation no longer depends on pressure that is because the continuum assumptions of fluid dynamics no longer apply mass transport is governed by molecular dynamics rather than fluid dynamics thus a short path between the hot surface and the cold surface as necessary typically by suspending a hot plate covered with a film of feed next to a cold plate with a line of sight in between molecular distillation is used industrially for purification of oils topic air sensitive vacuum distillation you some compounds high boiling points as well as being air sensitive a simple vacuum distillation system as exemplified above can be used whereby the vacuum is replaced with an inert gas after the distillation is complete however this is a less satisfactory system if one desires to collect fractions under a reduced pressure to do this a cow or pig adapter can be added to the end of the condenser or for better results or for very air sensitive compounds a Perkin triangle apparatus can be used the Perkin triangle has means via a series of glass or Teflon taps to allows fractions to be isolated from the rest of the still without the main body of the distillation being removed from either the vacuum or heat source and thus can remain in a state of reflex to do this the sample is first isolated from the vacuum by means of the taps the vacuum over the sample is then replaced with an inert gas such as nitrogen or argon and can then be stopped furred and removed a fresh collection vessel can then be added to the system evacuated and linked back into the distillation system via the taps to collect a second fraction and so on until all fractions have been collected topic short path distillation short path distillation as a distillation technique that involves the distillate traveling a short distance often only a few centimeters and is normally done at reduced pressure a classic example would be a distillation involving the distillate traveling from one glass bulb to another without the need for a condenser separating the two chambers this technique is often used for compounds which are unstable at high temperatures or to purify small amounts of compound the advantage is that the heating temperature can be considerably lower at reduced pressure than the boiling point of the liquid at standard pressure and the distillate only has to travel a short distance before condensing a short path ensures that little compound is lost on the sides of the apparatus the kugel Rohr is a kind of a short path distillation apparatus which often contain multiple chambers to collect distillate fractions topic zone distillation zone distillation as a distillation process in long container with partial melting of refined matter in moving liquid zone and condensation of vapor in the solid phase at condensate pulling in cold area the process has worked in theory when zone heater is moving from the top to the bottom of the container then solid condensate with a regular impurity distribution as forming then most pure part of the condensate may be extracted as product the process may be iterated many times by moving without turnover the received condensate to the bottom part of the container on the place of refined matter the irregular impurity distribution in the condensate that as efficiency of purification increases with number of repetitions of the process zone distillation as a distillation analog of zone recrystallization impurity distribution in the condensate as described by known equations of zone recrystallization with various numbers of iteration of process with replacement distribution efficient K of crystallization on separation factor alpha of distillation topic other types the process of reactive distillation involves using the reaction vessel as the still in this process the product is usually significantly lower boiling than its reactants as the product is formed from the reactants it is vaporized and removed from the reaction mixture this technique is an example of a continuous versus a batch process advantages include less downtime to charge the reaction vessel with starting material and less workup distillation over a reactant could be classified as a reactive distillation it is typically used to remove volatile impurity from the distillation feed for example a little lime may be added to remove carbon dioxide from water followed by a second distillation with a little sulfuric acid added to remove traces of ammonia catalytic distillation as the process by which the reactants are catalyzed while being distilled to continuously separate the products from the reactants this method is used to assist equilibrium reactions reach completion privation as a method for the separation of mixtures of liquids by partial vaporization through a non porous membrane extractive distillation is defined as distillation in the presence of a miscible high boiling relatively non-volatile component the solvent that forms no azeotrope with the other components in the mixture flash evaporation or partial evaporation is the partial vaporization that occurs when a saturated liquid stream undergoes a reduction in pressure by passing through a throttling valve or other throttling device this process is one of the simplest unit operations being equivalent to a distillation with only one equilibrium stage to distill ation as distillation which is performed on mixtures in which the two compounds are not miscible in the laboratory the dean-stark apparatus is used for this purpose to remove water from synthesis products the blinder is another example with two reflux mg solvents membrane distillation as a type of distillation in which vapors of a mixture to be separated are passed through a membrane which selectively permeates one component of mixture vapor pressure difference as the driving force it has potential applications in seawater desalination and in removal of organic and inorganic components the unit process of evaporation may also be called distillation in rotary evaporation of vacuum distillation apparatus is used to remove bulk solvents from a sample typically the vacuum is generated by a water aspirator or a membrane pump in a kugel R or a short path distillation apparatus as typically used generally in combination with a high vacuum to distill high boiling greater than 300 degrees Celsius compounds the apparatus consists of an oven in which the compound to be distilled is placed a receiving portion which is outside of the oven and a means of rotating the sample the vacuum is normally generated by using a high vacuum pump other uses dry distillation or destructive distillation despite the name is not truly distillation but rather a chemical reaction known as pyrolysis in which solid substances are heated in an inert or reducing atmosphere and any volatile fractions containing high boiling liquids and products of pyrolysis are collected the destructive distillation of wood to give methanol as the root of its common name wood alcohol freeze distillation as an analogous method of purification using freezing instead of evaporation it is not truly distillation but a recrystallization where the product as the mother liquor and does not produce products equivalent to distillation this process is used in the production of ice beer and ice wine to increase ethanol and sugar content respectively it is also used to produce Applejack unlike distillation freeze distillation concentrates poisonous congeners rather than removing them as a result many countries prohibit such Applejack as a health measure however reducing methanol with the absorption of for a molecular sieve as a practical method for production also distillation by evaporation can separate these since they have different boiling points topic azeotropic distillation interactions between the components of the solution create properties unique to the solution as most processes entail non-ideal mixtures where raoult's law does not hold such interactions can result in a constant boiling azeotrope which behaves as if it were a pure compound ie boils at a single temperature instead of arranged at an azeotrope the solution contains the given component in the same proportion as the vapor so that evaporation does not change the purity and distillation does not affect separation for example ethyl alcohol and water form an azeotrope of 95.6% at seventy eight point one degrees Celsius if the azeotrope is not considered sufficiently pure for use there exists some techniques to break the azeotrope to give a pure distillate this set of techniques are known as as iya tropic distillation some techniques achieve this by jumping over the azeotropic composition by adding another component to create a new azeotrope or by varying the pressure others work by chemically or physically removing or sequestering the impurity for example to purify ethanol beyond 95 percent a drying agent or desiccant such as potassium carbonate can be added to convert the soluble water into insoluble water of crystallization molecular sieves are often used for this purpose as well immiscible liquids such as water and toluene easily form azeotropes commonly these azeotropes are referred to as a low boiling azeotrope because the boiling point of the azeotrope is lower than the boiling point of either pure component the temperature and composition of the azeotrope is easily predicted from the vapor pressure of the pure components without use of raoult's law the azeotrope is easily broken in a distillation setup by using a liquid liquid separator a decanter to separate the two liquid layers that are condensed overhead only one of the two liquid layers as reflux to the distillation setup high boiling azeotropes such as a 20 weight percent mixture of hydrochloric acid in water also exists as implied by the name the boiling point of the azeotrope is greater than the boiling point of either pure component to break azeotropic distillation x' and cross distillation boundaries such as in the Dara seer problem it is necessary to increase the composition of the Liedtke in the distillate topic breaking in the zio trope with unidirectional pressure manipulation the boiling points of components in an azeotrope overlap to form a band by exposing an azeotrope to a vacuum or positive pressure it's possible to bias the boiling point of one component away from the other by exploiting the differing vapor pressure curves of each the curves may overlap at the azeotropic point but are unlikely to be remain identical further along the pressure axis either side of the azeotropic point when the bias is great enough the two boiling points no longer overlap then so the azeotropic band disappears this method can remove the need to add other chemicals to a distillation but it has two potential drawbacks under negative pressure power for a vacuum source as needed and the reduced boiling points of the distillates requires that the condenser be run cooler to prevent distillate vapors being lost to the vacuum source increased cooling demands will often require additional energy and possibly new equipment or a change of coolant alternatively if positive pressures are required standard glassware cannot be used energy must be used for pressurization and there is a higher chance of side reactions occurring in the distillation such as decomposition due to the higher temperatures required to affect boiling a unidirectional distillation will rely on a pressure change in one direction either positive or negative topic pressure swing distillation pressure swing distillation as essentially the same as the unidirectional distillation used to break azeotropic mixtures but here both positive and negative pressures may be employed this improves the selectivity of the distillation and allows a chemist to optimize distillation by avoiding extremes of pressure and temperature that wastes energy this is particularly important in commercial applications one example of the application of pressure swing distillation as during the industrial purification of ethyl acetate after its catalytic synthesis from ethanol topic industrial distillation large-scale industrial distillation applications include both batch and continuous fractional vacuum azeotropic extractive and steam distillation the most widely used industrial applications of continuous steady-state fractional distillation are in petroleum refineries petrochemical and chemical plants and natural gas processing plants to control and optimize such industrial distillation a standardized laboratory method ASTM d 86 is established this test method extends to the atmospheric distillation of petroleum products using a laboratory batch distillation unit to quantitatively determine the boiling range characteristics of petroleum products industrial distillation is typically performed in large vertical cylindrical columns known as distillation towers or distillation columns with diameters ranging from about 65 centimeters to 16 meters and heights ranging from about 6 meters to 90 meters or more when the process feed has a diverse composition as in distilling crude oil liquid outlets at intervals up the column allow for the withdrawal of different fractions or products having different boiling points or boiling ranges the lightest products those with the lowest boiling point exit from the top of the columns and the heaviest products those with the highest boiling point exit from the bottom of the column and are often called the bottoms industrial towers use reflux to achieve a more complete separation of products reflux refers to the portion of the condensed overhead liquid product from a distillation or fractionation tower that is returned to the upper part of the tower as shown in the schematic diagram of a typical large-scale industrial distillation tower inside the tower the down flowing reflux liquid provides cooling and condensation of the up flowing vapors thereby increasing the efficiency of the distillation tower the more reflux that is provided for a given number of theoretical plates the better the tower's separation of lower boiling materials from higher boiling materials alternatively the more reflux that is provided for a given desired separation the fewer the number of theoretical plates required chemical engineers must choose what combination of reflux rate and number of plates as both economically and physically feasible for the products purified in the distillation column such industrial fractionating towers are also used in cryogenic air separation producing liquid oxygen liquid nitrogen and high purity argon distillation of chlorosilane x' also enables the production of high purity silicon for use as a semiconductor design and operation of a distillation tower depends on the feed and desired products given a simple binary component feed analytical methods such as the McCabe Teela method or the Fenske equation can be used for a multi-component feed simulation models are used both for design and operation moreover the efficiencies of the vapor liquid contact devices referred to as plates or trays used in distillation towers are typically lower than that of a theoretical 100 percent efficient equilibrium stage hence a distillation tower needs more trays than the number of theoretical vapour liquid equilibrium stages a variety of models have been postulated to estimate tray efficiencies in modern industrial uses a packing material is used in the column instead of trays when low pressure drops across the column are required other factors that favor packing are vacuum systems smaller diameter columns corrosive systems systems prone to foaming systems requiring low liquid holdup and batch distillation conversely factors that favor plate columns our presence of solids in feed high liquid rates large column diameters complex columns columns with wide feed composition variation columns with a chemical reaction absorption columns columns limited by foundation weight tolerance low liquid rate large turndown ratio and those processes subject to process surges this packing material can either be random dumped packing one two three wide such as Raschi grains or a structured sheet metal liquids tend to wet the surface of the packing and the vapors pass across this wetted surface where mass transfer takes place unlike conventional trade distillation in which every tray represents a separate point of vapor liquid equilibrium the vapor liquid equilibrium curve in a packed column as continuous however when modeling packed columns it is useful to compute a number of theoretical stages to denote the separation efficiency of the packed column with respect to more traditional trays differently shaped packings have different surface areas and void space between packings both of these factors affect packing performance another factor in addition to the packing shape and surface area that affects the performance of random or structured packing is the liquid and vapor distribution entering the packed bed the number of theoretical stages required to make a given separation as calculated using a specific vapor to liquid ratio if the liquid and vapor are not evenly distributed across the superficial tower area as it enters the packed bed the liquid to vapor ratio will not be correct in the packed bed and the required separation will not be achieved the packing will appear to not be working properly the height equivalent to a theoretical plate a chi TP will be greater than expected the problem is not the packing itself but the MAL distribution of the fluids entering the packed bed liquid mal distribution is more frequently the problem than vapor the design of the liquid distributor is used to introduce the feed and reflux to a packed bed as critical to making the packing perform to it maximum efficiency methods of evaluating the effectiveness of a liquid distributor to evenly distribute the liquid entering a packed bed can be found in references considerable work has been done on this topic by fractionation Research Inc commonly known as FRA topic multi-effect distillation the goal of multi-effect distillation as to increase the energy efficiency of the process for use in desalination or in some cases one stage in the production of ultra-pure water the number of effects as inversely proportional to the kilowatt-hour per cubic meter of water recovered figure and refers to the volume of water recovered per unit of energy compared with single effect distillation one effect is roughly 636 kilo watt hours per cubic metre multistage flash distillation can achieve more than twenty effects with thermal energy input as mentioned in the article vapour compression evaporation commercial large-scale units can achieve around 72 effects with electrical energy input according to manufacturers there are many other types of multi effect distillation processes including one referred to as simply multi effect distillation med in which multiple chambers with intervening heat exchangers are employed topic distillation in food processing you topic distilled beverages carbohydrate-containing plant materials are allowed to ferment producing a dilute solution of ethanol in the process spirits such as whiskey and rum are prepared by distilling these dilute solutions of ethanol components other than ethanol including water esters and other alcohols are collected in the condensate which account for the flavor of the beverage some of these beverages are then stored in barrels or other containers to acquire more flavor compounds and characteristic flavors topic gallery you topic see also distillation portal atmospheric distillation of crude oil closest fragrance extraction Micra distillery sublimation Dixon rings

foreign [Music] foreign [Music] foreign [Music] foreign [Music] [Laughter] [Music] thank you [Music] foreign [Music] foreign [Music] for me [Music] Blessed Be god father Son and Holy Spirit amen almighty God to you all desires now and from you no secrets are here claims the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your Holy Spirit in that we may perfectly love you and worthily magnify your holy name through Christ Our Lord amen [Music] thank you [Music] foreign [Music] [Applause] [Music] foreign [Music] let us pray Almighty and everlasting God in Christ you have revealed Your Glory among thy Nations preserve the works of your mercy that your church throughout the world may persevere with steadfast faith in the confession of your name through Jesus Christ Our Lord who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit one God forever and ever ah man [Music] a reading from The Book of Genesis Jacob got up at night and took his two wives his two maids and his 11 children and crossed the Ford of the jabak he took them and sent them across the stream and likewise everything that he had Jacob was left alone and a man wrestled with him until Daybreak when the man saw that he did not Prevail against Jacob he struck him on the hip socket and Jacob's hip was put out of joint as he wrestled with him then he said let me go for the day is breaking but Jacob said I will not let you go unless you bless me so he said to him what is your name and he said Jacob then the man said You shall no longer be called Jacob but Israel for you have striven with God and with humans and have prevailed then Jacob asked him please tell me your name but he said why is it that you ask my name and there he blessed him so Jacob called the place peniel saying for I have seen God face to face and yet my life is preserved the sun rose upon him as he passed peniel lipping because of his hip the word of the Lord [Music] the maker of heaven [Music] I dipped up my eyes [Music] the maker of heaven [Music] you will not let your foot be blue [Music] people he who keeps watch over his forever [Music] foreign [Music] foreign [Music] the Lord a reading from the second letter of Paul to Timothy as for you continue in what you have learned and firmly believed knowing from whom you learned it and how from childhood you have known the sacred writings that are able to instruct you for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus all scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching for reproof for correction and for training in righteousness so that everyone who belongs to God may be proficient equipped for every good work and the presence of God and of Christ Jesus who is to judge the living and the dead and in view of his appearing and his kingdom I solemnly urge you proclaim the message be persistent whether the time is favorable or unfavorable convince rebuke and encourage with the utmost patience in teaching for the time is coming when people will not put up with sound Doctrine but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own desires and will turn away from listening to the truth and wonder away to myths as for you always be sober endure suffering do the work of an evangelist carry out your ministry fully the word of the Lord thanks be to God Hallelujah [Music] to you [Music] the holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Luke Glory To You Lord Christ foreign Jesus told the disciples a parable about their need to pray always and not to lose heart he said in a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor had respect for people in that City there was a widow who kept coming to him and saying grant me Justice against my opponent for a while he refused but later he said to himself though I have no fear of God and no respect for anyone yet because this Widow keeps bothering me I will grant her justice so that she may not wear me out by continually coming and the Lord said listen to what the unjust judge says and will not God grant Justice to his chosen ones who core out who cry out to him day and night will he delay long in helping them I tell you he will come quickly and Grant Justice to them And yet when the son of man comes will he find faith on Earth the gospel of the Lord Christ [Music] the name of the father and the son and holy spirit I have had jury duty all week it's not even done I have to go in tomorrow morning which means I can't talk about any specifics of the case what I can talk about though is something I haven't learned but been reminded of by this process I think you'll find it true as well when people are in Conflict especially formal conflict public conflict usually there were points on the way where both sides could have chosen something differently where both sides could have been a little more reflective or gracious or charitable and headed off this fractious conflict that they find themselves in occasionally you get something where there's one totally just person and one totally wrong person but usually both have engaged in errors of judgment I think this is primarily a result of a type of thinking that is common in our own culture and society and it's a type of thinking primarily concerned with my own rights what do I have the right to do I think Rowan Williams in his book The Way of Saint Benedict explored this very helpfully he argued that communal monasticism saw life in common with others as the primary ascetic endeavor because of how often we can get to thinking if only that person or those people would leave or change or get out of the way then we could do what we wanted to do then life would be better then life would be perfect if only those other people would conform to what I want Williams argues that this a is a deep ascetic Endeavor especially with a religious understanding that we are to love our neighbors as ourselves he also argues that when we are primarily concerned with our own rights we're essentially creating a bubble around us the primary way that people can engage with us is by infringing on that bubble which really sets us up for conflict that can be a trap for us and if we don't find our way out of it we can engage with the whole world as nothing more than an impediment to what we want in our second lesson today Paul sets up Jesus as the one who will come to judge the world exhorting us to be constant in our own lives and in our engagement with others in our witness to the gospel he exhorts us to encourage others and to take heart ourselves Jesus is Pathway to this position of judgment is as we know through the suffering he endured there is no Resurrection without the crucifixion there is no Ascension into heaven seated at the right hand of the father without the human bodily suffering that Christ endured and indeed this was unjust suffering Jesus didn't deserve it he was doing it on our behalf in today's Gospel reading I'm really struck by the inversion of I think what's the normal line from scripture because we get a plaintiff who is just who is righteous in what she desires the relief she's seeking and we get a judge who's unjust and doesn't care about anyone else I think that's instructive for we who are so capable of Injustice so capable of thinking about our own rights and how they're being infringed so capable of not regarding the other we who can mistreat so readily both God and neighbor that we have a just judge someone fundamentally equated acquainted with Justice and with Mercy further this judge in the person of Christ is someone who is acquainted with suffering Injustice Luke describes the reason for Jesus telling his disciples this Parable as reminding them to pray and to take heart to desire to encounter God and to not be discouraged not be disheartened thank you in our first lesson from Genesis we have a depiction of Jacob struggling with someone who's only described as a man but he realizes that it's an encounter with God it's a curious story because he's described as prevailing and when the man realized realizes that Jacob is prevailing he strikes him on the hip and pushes it out of socket I've had a joint out of socket even if I was winning the fight until then I would lose and so it's interesting because Jacob is sort of both triumphing and weakened he's he's Victorious he prevails as this man describes it and is injured and that he carries this injury with him limping as he goes past peniel that's instructive to me because it suggests that even in our triumphs even in the places where we feel confident or secure where we are prevailing we are liable to be injured to experience weakness and as Jacob says I will not let you go without blessing me these instances of struggle and of injury of weakness are opportunities to encounter God Jesus gives the reasoning for his Parable as to keep praying and to take heart his use of judicial metaphors suggests that this is in the face of persecution Injustice injury weakness it is these very experiences of Injustice of struggle of injury that may very well be the channels of Grace the ability to experience God in a new way to break past the wall or the bubble we build around ourselves protected secure powerful safe this process of being opened up by an injurious weakness by suffering I think it's very difficult to talk about suffering as Redemptive without trust in God in fact I think it's not really possible to believe that one's own suffering can be Redemptive if one does not already trust God and I think that's relevant to these readings we've heard today because both Paul and Christ talk about keep praying look to the doctrine you've always known look to the stories the scriptures believe these things you have always been taught and believed that's a prior that's a thing that needs to happen first that's a foundation before being able to go out into that risky risky risky world that we inhabit bearing the message that Christ has borne for us before opening ourselves up to that injury but if we do carry that trust with us we may realize that these experiences of weakness of Injustice of suffering are the very means by which we encounter God are the very means by which we ourselves learn both Justice and mercy and do so by beholding the one who sits in judgment and knows these two things perfectly if we can do that and it's a tall order but if we can take a step in that direction we will have made immeasurable progress in the Commandment we have been given to love God and neighbor and I would argue that these Commandments are the necessary foundation and Center to any Christian understanding of what it means to be just so I encourage you pray and do not lose heart foreign [Music] you know [Music] baby [Music] foreign [Music] was there [Music] your voice [Music] we never know [Music] joining our prayers with those of Christ whoever lives to make intercession for us I ask for your prayers either silently or aloud for the church the world the living and The Departed thank you [Music] um foreign and now with all our heart and with all our mind let us pray to the Lord saying

New Life in Jesus Christ Our Lord therefore we praise you joining our voice with angels and our archangels and with all the company I have Heaven who forever her sing this hymn to proclaim the glory of your name [Music] foreign [Music] we give thanks to you o God for the goodness and love which you have made known to us in Creation in the calling of ancient Israel to be your people in your words spoken through the prophets and above all in the word made flesh Jesus your son for in these last days you sent him to be incarnate from the Virgin Mary to be the Savior and Redeemer of the world in him you have delivered us from evil and made us worthy to stand before you in him you have brought us out of error into truth out of sin into righteousness out of death into life on the night before he died for us our Lord Jesus Christ took bread and when he had given thanks to you he broke it and gave it to his disciples and said take eat this is my body which is given for you do this for the remembrance of me foreign he took the cup of wine and when he had given thanks he gave it to them and said drink this all of you this is my blood of the New Covenant which is shed for you and for many for the Forgiveness of sins whenever you drink it do this for the remembrance of me for according to his command O Father we remember his death we Proclaim his resurrection we await his coming in glory and we offer our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving To You O Lord of all presenting to you from your creation this bread and this wine we pray you gracious God to send your Holy Spirit upon these gifts that they may be the sacrament of the body of Christ and his blood of the New Covenant unite us to your son in his sacrifice that we may be acceptable through him being Sanctified by the

Christ thanks be to God [Music] foreign [Music] foreign [Music] good morning and thank you for joining us for our Eucharist both in person and online we brothers are always grateful to have you with us a couple announcements both in and Beyond the bulletin in the bulletin you'll notice that um we have an away week next week so after even song today we close for a week this is a quarterly time for brothers to be away and unrest will both be here and at Emory house and Beyond and pray for our we appreciate your prayers for our um uh rest and uh freshman and then we will be back on October 25th beginning with morning prayer soon after that a week after that is November 1st and 2nd All Souls All Saints and All Souls day and at the back of the entrance of the church Jonathan has the book there that he's raising on All Souls day we remember all the Departed and if you would like to write the name of one that you personally know who has departed in that book we will pray for all those written on November 2nd All Souls a little bit beyond that November 6th that Sunday is the um half marathon and currently uh Memorial Drive is blocked off for everyone to use on the weekend that particular Sunday it will be blocked off for the half marathon and because of that the half marathon is providing um vouchers for the use of the University Road parking lot and so we do not usually have vouchers to give you but we have get vouchers to give you from them for the sixth so if you'd like to drive and park on the sixth we'll have vouchers otherwise it's still blocked off and we don't have vouchers that's so everyone can be on it in Cambridge which is delightful but those vouchers are just from the half marathon people so now please join us for a brief hot beverage and conversation in the garden and we look for degreed in years ago thank you necessary [Music]

UniTime Project Update_Open Apereo 2022
hello my name is tomas miller i'm a technical lead and principal developer of unit time this is a short project update presentation about unit time unit time is a tool that came from almost two decades of development and research of educational optimization algorithms it was created to effectively timetable courses and exams to provide student scheduling both in batch and in real time and to manage course changes and additional events during the semester using unitime can save a lot of costs to an institution of higher education first of all it is open source and free to use there is are no licensing fees or setup costs we provide free email support but also a commercial support if it is needed but the cost of the software is only a small part an institution case can save a lot of money by using their resources effectively it can also help students to be able to graduate in time and the institution to offer courses that are truly needed while maximizing the amount of students that can take them this helps keeping the student costs slow as well as making the whole process easier to manage and more fair to all interested parties unitime also helps planning the future what if scenarios as well as better coping with any changes including the recent covet pandemic there are five major components in unit time right now while they complement each other they can also work independently first of all our course timetabling helps to build a schedule of classes assigning individual sections to both times and rooms it can consider various preferences and requirements on times and rooms availabilities of instructors structure of courses and so on there is a solver that can be used to compute a timetable automatically or that can help the user to provide valuable suggestions when making manual changes while ensuring that there are no time conflicts for rooms instructors or students the second component is the examination timetabling which is used to build an examination schedule assigning exams to examination periods and rooms besides of considering the various preferences on rooms and periods various relations between english exams that we call distribution constraints it minimizes the number of direct student conflicts and also back to backs or cases where a student has more than two exams on a day exams can be split into multiple rooms or can share larger rooms as needed one of the most important components is the student scheduling module it takes the course demands of students and can be used to register students to individual classes students can provide the courses they need together with alternatives and free time requests the system gives them class schedule that best fits their needs the class schedules can be either computed automatically for all the students that did preregister or it can be used in an online form where a student gets a schedule immediately the online mode can be also used by the students to make schedule adjustments once their initial class schedule is created the last component that is also using a constraint based optimization solver is the instructor scheduling module this is usually used for the teaching assistants to assign them to classes that they are going to teach considering their teaching load qualification skills availability and preferences finally we also have an event management tool it is used to book additional events in the university rooms and also to provide room availability for the other timetabling problems it is also used to display a schedule for a student an instructor or a room that contains all the classes exams and additional course related events like help sessions that the instructor can set up we do have a major release every year we are now at unit time 4.6 there are also minor releases that are done more frequently typically every other month or so unit time is a major project so it is mostly gradual improvements of the functional mostly in the student scheduling space from the current unit time version 4.6 that was released late january i would like to point out the new wait listing that takes place during online student scheduling it allows students to waitlist for a course that they do not have and that is currently full this release also supports java 16 and later versions and tomcat 10. in the next release there will be more weightlisting improvements including the ability to do a swap of a course or waitlist for a different sections or sections of a course that the student already has because unit time is available for download and use for free we have only a limited knowledge about our users there is about a dozen of them that we work with regularly but from the rest we may only get an occasional email questions or even no message at all however we do have a voluntary registration in any time that the admin can fill in once the system is installed or at a later date this registration have been used to create this word cloud it is over 500 registrations from around the world also out of these registrations close to a hundred of institutions have indicated that they use unitime in production during the last 12 months we have got about 45 new registrations several of which have indicated that they use unit time in production we have two presentations at the open apparel 2022 conference this year both are on june 14. the first one is about differences how unit time is being used by our users around the world the second one lists how purdue university benefited from using as well as being part of the research and development of unit time other than that we will have a couple of unit time related presentations at the patat conference in august in leaven belgium this is the practices and theory of automated timetabling conference that happens every other year we are co-organizing a special trek at the conference about the international timetabling competition that we have run in the past years the competition was for the researchers interested in the course timetabling research we have published three sets of problem instances 10 instances each on the competition website we have close to 400 registrations for more than 50 countries so far at least 16 solvers have been deployed developed and some results have been validated and uploaded on our competition website from them while the competition is over the itc 2019 website stays up to provide a repository of best known solutions for the competition problems thank you here are some links for more materials about unit time in particular i would like to mention our online demo available at demo.unitime.org

No More Homeownership Allowed In The USA - Tom and Shane explore the American Dream
it's tuesday it's 10 a.m mountain time that means it's time for tom and shane uh we're glad to be here with you if you're just joining us uh why not take a second before we get started and hit that subscribe button uh don't hit the one that's on the screen because that's just a graphic you got to go to the lower right hand corner down below the video and you know we promise you good things will happen to you that uh if you subscribe the people at youtube uh they get physically aroused when you do that and when you ring the notification bell and like us they really are getting better they really get aroused yeah there you go and if you like sports monetarily and why would you not there are some costs involved in putting these shows on so we hope you would go over and take a look at the perks we give you for doing that and there's a description in the uh below in the description below link i should say and if you like to make podcasts like this we do it with stream yard and there's also a link to a free version below that you can try it out and see if you want to be a youtube podcaster or facebook live or uh where we have facebook live youtube live instagram and also we're on twitter and facebook of course and also we want to remind you that both of us write uh compelling uh articles on all sorts of things and we write over on medium.com there's a link to our articles in the description below so you want to check those out of course and uh today's topic is home as the american dream of homeownership dead and boy i don't know shane interest rates going up um got to be harder to borrow money uh going to be tougher to own a home what do you think well the astounding reality is is that the fed doesn't care about home ownership they don't care about the market uh what they're concerned about is your debt and so when when you look at the 62-year historical chart i mean my goodness in 2022 you know the fed rates started off at 0.82 and now where it's at uh you know it's basically looking like a percentage change of 3 228 percent increase i mean that's just crazy because they're you know they're a 2.5 to 2.5 2.5 two and a quarter to 2.5 and uh you know in september they'll raise it by uh you know 75 basis points they'll raise it to three three percent for the fed rate there's no question um in the market is in uh the tells in the market are terrible because of what uh fed chairman said last friday because now you have uh investors having to decide uh you know you know it's inflation versus investment and with uh you know a household mortgage uh you know making basically a a remarkable cost increase i mean it's it's uh it's overwhelming to people you know that own a home right now so buying a home is even more difficult yeah yeah it is uh federal reserve raised their rate 75 basis points uh basis points a hundred hundred of a point so a hundred basis points is one point uh one point of interest i should say so uh during its meeting they just finished in jackson hole that's the largest uh increase since 2019 and as shane brightly pointed out they are expected to raise rates at least one or possibly two times uh more before the end of the year so it's kind of scary it's a little scary out there for uh those folks who maybe are just entering the market uh maybe they've saved a down payment but all of a sudden they're going to get hit with a higher mortgage monthly mortgage so a lot of people i think shane may be rethinking what's going on there's the increase you can see how dramatic that increase was because during the pandemic where we were at near zero interest rates yes right and yeah and then a number of uh people occupying homes owner-occupied homes 83 million number of housing units occupied by renters 44 million and the u.s home ownership rate at 65 percent and that's been going up and down recently shane and i can do it i i don't like to give presidents um credit for this uh but i'm going to use them just as a timeline so that you understand that uh rates went up or home ownership went up pretty good during clinton uh down during bush and obama and then back up during trump but we also had volcker greenspan bernanke yelling and now we've got your own pal in there and of course same thing's happening with renters runners are going up right and left as as housing prices go up of course rents go up as well so yeah and that's 65 you know it's the largest percentage of home ownership of any country in the world but yeah you know home prices uh you know between 100 000 250 fell were you know 31 percent lower from a year ago and prices of homes between 715 a million are down eight percent sales of uh home prices above a million fell 13 from a year ago so the market's basically telling you that you know the housing industry is uh uh well well you know it it would it's in a recession i mean yeah they'll the market will recognize sectors in a recession but they won't admit that the u.s is a responsibility right we called the high in the market november december um you know i i i claimed that the united states has been in a recession since february and i've been looking for tells um and with that friday comment by the fed you know there's going to be a lot of pain and and heartache for allegations to come that in the market responds to what he said on monday which was really bad because now probably for the you know august uh the market will be down overall uh it's showing itself that way today um so i i think this is the end of the beginning of the recession that started in february so now we are in the middle of a recession which we'll know how bad and how long it is for you know within the next three months and certainly before the end of the year yeah i suspect it'll be until you know the presidential election you know at least 2022 this is going to be bad this is not a v recovery recession it's an l recovery and the bottom bar [Music] yeah i i agree with you i think it's uh well we saw the we saw the market drop a thousand points um you know quite a bit uh decline there and uh with interest rates uh going up uh that's going to make money more expensive across the board for everybody whether you're buying a home or whether you're starting a business you know if you go down to the bank and uh want some money they're gonna you know your payback's gonna be uh is gonna be uh two or three percent higher than it was uh you know pre-pandemic uh so yeah it's um i agree with you shane i think we're we're in for some tough uh sledding here uh through the summer and um getting into the last quarter in october uh we'll we'll kind of see where we are usually an election year kind of pop props things up you know people get more positive and people start showing more positive messages out there to get elected but now man it's gloom and doom everywhere you look yeah february historically used to be the worst month of the year after you know christmas spending and everything you know the the marginal stocks that respond to anticipation of christmas you know they they go up in the in the fall and winter before christmas and then they drop afterwards and you know it was a rich cycle for the investors and traders in the market but now what you're faced with today is as i said it's a inflation versus in uh investment situation and and part of that is it's twofold it's really three things global sovereign debt is horrific you know it's over 78 trillion then you have the u.s dollar is the strongest which is what the fed is doing raising rates making it the strongest currency the euros that you know just over a dollar you know just par with the with the us dollar was at 99 cents it was below par and there was pound sterling which has always been less than sturdy i mean has this been the strongest currency next to the u.s you know it's it's basically down from 128 130 to 116. so you look at other currencies canadian currencies holding on it's still 130 to the us dollar which is really really positive you know the third largest economy in the world is japan and their currencies at 138 from 115. why do i mention these numbers well because you know the largest debt equity market in the world is is uh global sovereign debt and corporate debt and you hear every day these corporations raising still billions of dollars in the market in the u.s and uh we're now in the cycle from where uh stocks have been cheap since last or not cheap but discounted since last november now now we're in this middle cycle of a recession now they're going to get cheap cheaper and cheaper there's going to be a lot more devastation out there than we've seen already uh you know the dowser got down down again today to 253 to 31 under 32 again um the standard 500 under 104 000 again and nasdaq you know it's just hovering around 12 000 so global markets are in the tailspin europe's in a mess the price of gas and the fires they've had this year and and a failure of crops and and uh around the world not just in europe but around the world you know they keep misdirecting the news cycle about crops around the world with you you know what's going on ukraine and delivering wheat but that's not really the problem you have countries all over the world that were basically you know self-serving and feeding their people and now they can't do that the commodity market really hasn't reflected it i mean crude oil is back and forth you know around a hundred dollars trying to decide use is the global demand going to drop well if the economy slows of course it'll drop but that's not going to help inflation inflation will continue to run um because uh raising in the fed rate or banks you know yeah you know banks like the fed or the bank of england or the bank of japan raising interest rates it isn't about fighting for inflation it's about debt so we'll see where it all winds up but it's it's going to be a tough september um you know there have been occasions where we've seen um major collapses of global markets as well as the american markets uh yeah of course well you know yeah yeah you're seeing three three big holidays on the way halloween thanksgiving and christmas all are going to be more expensive uh because of inflation and and whatever the other thing you're you're talking about shane over in europe uh natural gas has gone off the charts you know i mean uh the price of that and uh russia has threatened to uh cut off europe uh with you know with oil and natural gas and everything else we're helping out in ukraine so they're there they may have uh rolling blackouts of uh of heat uh during this during the winter so it's not gonna be a it's not gonna be fun over there and uh may not be fun here with the price of you know because you you know we're going to have to heat our homes and particularly in the north east they always have an issue with the heating oil and natural gas taking over more and more in that area but it's going to be tough on these folks so these higher prices on all these commodities just in our area here the northwestern energy they've asked for a rate increase uh here on gas and oil both uh so yeah the major contributing factors to our concern right now is winter of course on its way in north america heating oil in the northeast is the primary you know form to eat people's homes it's not 75 375 natural gas producing 32 percent of the electors in the us but in in europe like in germany you're looking at a german family spending a thousand dollars a month to eat their home this weekend i know yeah that's i mean yeah the euros the euros you know as i've just said is uh part of the us dollar i can't imagine a family of four in a home in america spending a thousand dollars a month to eat their home that that's just staggering yeah that's mind-boggling that's for sure yeah well that's what they're that's what they're predicting anyway uh over there that's why it's you know it's imperative for us to be energy independent where we don't have to depend on these other countries but of course we know we we know where we are on that deal oh that's right and you know it's uh you know we we're concerned about 12 to 15 interest i mean inflation right here in in north america in in our countries but you know between 87 and 2001 the the average inflation rate in china was uh about five percent a year still far beyond ours you know the our you know federal banks the bank county bank and the fed have always tried to keep it around two percent but you know in the same period um the inflation rate has gone up 396 percent so uh the cost of a hundred dollar one product in 87 is now 496 dollars i mean that's worse than venezuela so you know we're going after them pretty heavy that's right this whole issue about uh you know global you know uh gdp is going is going to literally explode here because china's going to go into a depression their capitalist society um you know they have been now for 50 years or the better part of 50 years they've never had a depression because you know you know the us is you know on average had one every 50 years so you you've had a period of experience of how to deal with it it's not a good thing no but uh you know you got to keep everything moving turning running you know and uh even though someone throws a wrench into it you still have to come out of it the thing about china is you know you've got this 400 million people middle class of 1.3 trillion or 3 billion deaf people 1.4 billion people you know they're going to be in the streets they're not afraid to demonstrate i mean no they you know they may have it they may have a you know the people of liberation are made maybe four million strong but it's a police force it's not an army we'll see where all that goes but no we're going to have lots to talk about our podcast and a lot of interesting topics and keep following up on this one because this i mean when you look at the cost of an interest rate on 400 000 home right now in in the last you know nine months since february it's gone up like 76 i mean that's staggering yeah well that's what i say is home ownership dead i think it is for a while at least at least for the bottom feeding folks it is you know the upper crust can certainly afford a few extra points of interest without hurting their bottom line anymore and and the sad thing there's a lot of articles you know by by the media uh you know you know the last two months about housing shortage and you know rental occupancy everywhere in your country mine is like at 98 and prices going up because of inflation of rent um but you know in the context of a of a market at least the north american you know building markets managed better i mean china's you know 20 cities 87 million condos and apartments that are 20 to 30 years old they're writing stories and bragging about having to tear them down i mean an entire city they built that never was occupied for 20 minutes yeah yeah so you think we we have difficulties yeah whoa there the numbers are staggering i mean they're the poster they're the poster child for poverty yeah well and the thing that upsets me the most is that these people that you have to listen to because that's all that there is on these networks and cable um about finance and everything you know they keep implying that the oh this sector is better than that you know you know but you know you you want to invest and when is it time to jump in well it isn't because yeah i still i still see um apple down another 50 to 50 to 70 percent amazon facebook too i see them all less than a hundred dollars easy in the next six months which means you know that that that'll scare the poop out everyone because banks will start liquidating and investment funds and everything because i mean like apple you know the iphone is uh you know it's 55 of their revenue so you know you saw what happened to bellaton because they saturated the market during cobit with people buying their machine and you know it's all but come you know gone bang i mean if they if they hadn't got their deal you know uh with them with amazon they probably wouldn't find they're not manufacturing their their units anymore they're closing stores you know they're keeping their exercise stores open because people do you know yeah because their subscription yeah they subscribe to them and then the subscribers but there's case after case of of tells oh yeah give you a clear indication of where this is all going and um cash flow is now apparently more important than earnings per share yeah well that's what caused it as you know i call this the earnings per share uh you know meltdown or crash that basically the again the networks and people out there they didn't want anyone to sell anything at the high even you know they had i mean a whole year last year to tell people you know sell 50 percent go to cad whatever i mean it's it's a it's it's a very difficult situation for a lot of people yeah well we still got high gas prices we've still got uh supply chain uh problems uh turkeys for thanksgiving we reported a previous podcast about the bird flu millions of millions of turkeys being killed millions of chickens being killed uh all over the country the numbers were staggering that i'm surprised there's any chickens or turkeys left at all that's right the largest chicken producer in your country you know announced yesterday that china has now restricted the export of their chicken to china for some bogus reason well it's it's just a bogus reason they want to create more uh inflation with regards to the us and yeah americans still pay you know americans still pay less than the rest of the world for chicken pork to be yeah but it's still up you know 12 to 15 percent from the beginning yeah well and also too with a supply chain situation you got christmas coming up as well halloween uh everything everything for halloween's made offshore uh you know so uh well that's right and you know and it's a big it's a big payday uh halloween's a big day you know it really is always has been it's a six billion dollar holiday you know for people uh um of course going into thanksgiving you know and uh you know uh fridays you know matter yeah black friday's matter parties do matter we tried to defend that to go viral what four years ago it's still good it's a good reference still a good reference i don't think you'll i shouldn't keep saying you know you should beat me up about that okay um you know black friday does matter because of the reference to the rest of the next two months and how things will fare uh we're always surprised by how soon you know the there i go again we're always surprised by how soon the major retailers bring out their their christmas awareness i know yeah yeah i i i would imagine before the end of september it won't be november i think it's july 4th get your christmas lights uh yeah or october we'll see yeah well it is yeah well we just had back to school you know i was at walmart the other day and there was a young couple in front of me with their kids and they're buying notebooks and paper and uh pencils and markers and all kinds of stuff you know so that's a big day as well uh back to school yeah back school always is sure um as we pointed out you know the sales year to year during cove but of course it was shut down but schooling you know the school sales for were down and they were anticipating a a big move in that area it was up substantially you know backpacks are more expensive and every every kid in america gets a new backpack every year i i don't know what they do with the other ones i guess they give them away i don't know but well um i mean i'm the backpack i've had for 20 years i haven't replaced it yeah well i i think as you grow you need to get a bigger one i don't know something to do with your shoulders or whatever i i you don't have a choice when the zippers go but otherwise it's good to go there you go that's good well we'll uh we'll certainly see uh how this plays out because uh it's gonna be it's gonna be a tough uh last four months of the year here as we move into september and uh yeah because there's no expendable income yeah again i everyone we're being told by everyone from the president the spokesman the vice president everybody else that oh americans are doing you know they're doing great and the consumer product index is oh it's it's a bit stronger it was down but now it's up a bit these things are no longer of importance to what we're talking about because you know they talk about the global market the global economy on one side and they flip the coin and then they talk about these tiny little things like consumer price it it's what's going on globally that you have to look at first to realize how deep we are into a a trench and because it's not a hole it's a trench i mean you know everyone's digging a trench so there you go and this one's you know how deep you can dig a trench yeah yeah you may not get to china but you can surely bury yourself that's for sure you'll certainly run into someone speaking mandarin before very long that's right yeah so well yeah we're we're going to stay on top of it obviously for the next four months and of course we want to keep you all

POLICE CHASE BMW M135I IN LIVERPOOL REACTION!!
what the what's going on man what am i saying left this one's saying straight these all need to make their minds up come on frank be strong for me these like ghetto they're saying they've got a chopper on them that's where they're concerned for the time full of gasoline yeah [Music] yo what's going on guys welcome back to the channel today we are filming another police chase reaction video in liverpool apparently the same guys that got chasing the golf r they're now in an m135y taking chase once again filmed on their mobile phone these guys literally do not give a [ __ ] so let's get straight into this video [Music] and just before i start apparently there is a second part to the goal fire video so somebody please link that down below so i could do a little reaction video to that also some of you were moaning at me i wasn't trying to judge dead gangster i was actually judging their driving yeah you should know i've got a driving background to film cars for a living and uh yeah the driving i won't feel it i'm not gonna lie to you so uh yeah m135 i police chase around liverpool also remember this channel is sponsored by llf games the ultimate car competition platform yeah get to know people so i'm trying to sit back a bit because i've got like a 32 inch monitor in front of me and it's just right in my face is a bit bit too much bro so they're all sitting parked up as if they must have been in the police church for a while in it because these cars are all parked up blue lights are going off everywhere also let me know are these guys taking chase on purpose or are they actually like doing some crazy moves or something [Music] choose banging in it trust me i think i think it's the same guy isn't it i can see i think because of the driving position because he's up there like this it's like he's right in front of the wheel dustin [Music] completely different to the gold file the gold file you can lean on it you can make mistakes this car once it goes mate if you ain't into your driving yeah [Music] oh [ __ ] feds are on him [ __ ] no man how much distance is he getting invited [Music] is i mean to be that calm whilst being in the police shows that is that's madness certain man [ __ ] will be coming out their mouth right now trust me oh man come on boy be praying for me be brave for me [Music] these are they love this [ __ ] you can tell man they're getting off on this one i don't know maybe they're doing it to just stay calm you know maybe it's a little trick they do what do you say [Music] don't look too reckless does it look all kind of under control [Music] but remember that's what they say right you know fast drivers they don't usually look like they're doing anything crazy at the wheel as i say look i've judged the driving but it doesn't mean that you can't drive fast just because [Music] you hear them right in the car you could imagine these men are probably driving bear cars they look they're right in the m135i [Music] go go [Music] i'm just intrigued really like they're actually in a full-on chase they must do this a lot because they look like they're just trying to keep each other calm you know you can hear the concern in the voice but they're staying calm you know [Music] chill oh [ __ ] here they saying they got a chopper on them [ __ ] that's where the concern came and they're talking about getting to a tunnel they're talking about doing 160 lit so i mean that's what you've got to be doing to try to get away from a chopper so these are going to have to try to hit them away i don't know i don't know what they're going to do let me tell you doing 160 full throttle you're gonna run out petrol very very quick [Music] see as far as them i'll just try calm down you can see they're trying to work out a plan but i would have just slowed down as long as there's no one behind there can't surely be any police behind right now but they're blowing right now look that was it man surely there's another part to this one i want to see what happened at the end assuming they did get away but look they got away from the police cars but then they got flipping chopper in here what do you do you've got a job on you this is just crazy though i've seen a lot of police chase shows but seeing it from the perspective from the people driving that's just nuts in it the cheap they're gonna have to just be filming as well and upload it to youtube they've gotta be in jail surely they've gotta be in jail because this is like incriminating evidence right but also another point it's an m135i it's rear wheel driven most people can't drive rear-wheel drive cars they're a lot more difficult like like imagine you're adrenaline rushing cars do not even feel fast like you don't feel like you're going fast enough so these are like they're in a rear-wheel drive car approaching roundabouts and corners at speeds that don't feel fast enough you know you're never going fast enough so um you know definitely the guy must have an idea of what he's doing but uh yeah guys i'm gonna end the video there's always if you enjoyed it hit the thumbs up subscribe new to the channel and please link down videos i want to see a part two to this and also the gold file link that one down below as well so yeah until next time when i speed up see your future that's my part see the smoke when i drive fast living life fast see you oh well that's your girl in my hotel that's five stars

October Grocery Haul Part 2 | Stocking Up | YiksRUs
hey you guys welcome back to the channel welcome back to yxr us and tonight is another grocery haul i have not done a night grocery haul in a very long time nelson just came home not too long ago with a awesome grocery haul i'm actually really really impressed with the things he brought home this time and so i thought that i would jump on here and share it with you because he got some really cool treats that were like some of my favorite things and they haven't been at a good price in a really long time so they're a decent price or he just found them so he's like let's get them so let's get this all started all right i know last time around we said that we bought enough chicken but today's the last day for that chicken sale and since he was going out to get groceries again i told him hey babe go get some more chicken so you got 12 more rolls of the one pound ground meat and usually when we do i'll use one whole one so this will be good for 12 well 12 12 times cooking which is usually more than 12 meals the funny thing is that before we were somewhat more limited to what we could get because of the fact that we had a smaller freezer our freezer grew miraculously no not miraculously but her freezer actually broke and as an emergency we had to go buy a new chest freezer and therefore after a bunch of research we decided to go and get the danby the danby 7.2 cubic feet uh freezer and oh my gosh it feels so much bigger has two compartments in it so far i love it um and it was a good deal at home depot so we ended up getting that one and so now i can fit more things in my freezer so that when things are on sale and good price we can just buy more of it and stock up a little crazy but anywho let's keep going so we got he got 12 more rolls of the frozen uh lead maple lodge uh ground chicken that's going to fall off my counter very very very soon and then also on the chicken front he did get six more packs of the uh chicken thighs from food basically and these were 88 cents a pound which is an amazing amazing price another part in the protein that he did end up getting he got another pack of tofu we have tofu like once every two weeks or so we've been eating a little bit more and because because i'm finding new ways of cooking it and it's been really fun and uh flavorful uh two things of napa from sentra i think these were 88 cents a pound i'm not gonna go through all the prices guys because i don't remember really a bag of milk because we always need milk and then a pack of fries because now we can put fries in our freezer yay two things of peanut butter so and we so he has one smoothie and one crunchy what are you are you team smooth are you team crunchy i personally like the crunchy one but the smooth ones are good for cooking so like i don't know if you're gonna make like that on noodles and stuff i don't know you can use the crunchy one too but yeah i typically i like the crunchy one a little bit more he also got pop pens he got the sesame one they didn't have the green onion one available but these are so yummy they're ridiculously yummy um for vegetables some of the vegetables i got the shanghai box so i got two bags of that i think he said they were like a dollar eighty-eight or so from tnt and my favorite vegetables these snow peas shoots are in chinese the dao meow these are delicious i love them and they're so good were they on sale boo 399 okay not bad because when i went the other day they were like 5.99 a pound so 3.99 is actually really good more snacks and treats with quadratinis i've never seen the raspberry yogurt one but these are so good and they're already in like bite-sized pieces so you can just go in and grab one or four just shove them in your mouth but i've never tried the raspberry yogurt once i am excited to try that one we normally do get the hazel one uh sorry the hazelnut one that my mom really really loved and she never loves these he got some mixed peppers i think they're 1.99 a pound which is actually a pretty decent price you can cut them up stuff them or just use them as a stir fry here over here we have our favorite coffee made or well just you know drink um coffee whiteners we

Collectible card games | Wikipedia audio article
a collectible card game CCG also called a trading card game TCG or many other names is a kind of strategy card game that was created in 1993 and consists of specially designed sets of playing cards these cards use proprietary artwork or images to embellish the card CCGs may depict anything from fantasy or science fiction genres horror themes cartoons or even sports game text is also on the card and is used to interact with the other cards in a strategic fashion games are commonly played between two players the multiplayer formats are also common players may also use dice counters card sleeves or play mats to complement their gameplay CCGs can be played with or collected and often both generally a CCG has initially played using a starter deck this deck may be modified by adding cards from booster packs which contained around 8 to 15 random cards as a player obtains more cards they may create new decks from scratch when enough players have been established tournaments are formed to compete for prizes successful CCGs typically have thousands of unique cards often extended through expansion sets that add new mechanics Magic the Gathering the first developed and most successful has over 17,000 distinct cards by the end of 1994 Magic the Gathering had sold over 1 billion cards and between the time period of 2008 to 2016 sold over 20 billion other successful CCGs include yugioh which sold over 25 billion cards as of March 2011 and Pokemon which has sold over 25 billion cards as of March 2018 other notable CCGs have come and gone including legend of the Five Rings Star Wars Lord of the Rings vampire the eternal struggle and world of warcraft many other CCGs were produced but had little or no commercial success recently digital collectible card games V CCGs have gained popularity spurred by the success of hearthstone DCC G's do not use physical cards and instead use digital representations with newer D CCGs forgoing card images altogether by using basic icons topic overview a collectible card game CCG is generally defined as a game where players acquire cards into a personal collection from which they create customized decks of cards and challenge other players in matches players usually start by purchasing a starter deck that is ready to play but additional cards are obtained from randomized booster packs or by trading with other players the goal of most si si Jesus to beat your opponent by crafting customized decks that play to synergies of card combinations refined decks will try to account for randomness as well as opponent's actions by using the most complementary and efficient cards possible the exact definition of what makes a CCG is varied as many games are marketed under that collectible card game moniker the basic definition requires the game to resemble trading cards in shape and function be mass-produced for trading or collectability and have rules for strategic gameplay the definition of CC Jesus further refined as being a card game in which the player uses his own deck with cards primarily sold in random assortments if every card in the game can be obtained by making a small number of purchases or if the manufacturer does not market it as a CCG then it is not a CCG CCGs can further be designated as living or dead games dead games are those CCGs which are no longer supported by their manufacturers and have ceased releasing expansions living games are those CCGs which continue to be published by their manufacturers usually this means that new expansions are being created for the game and official game tournaments are occurring in some fashion card games that should not be mistaken for CCGs deck building games construction of the deck is the main focus of gameplay collectible common deck card games are card games where players share a common deck rather than their own personal deck consequently no customization of decks nor trading occurs and no meta game is developed there is little to no interest in collecting the cards non collectible customizable card games are those games where each player has their own deck but no randomness occurs when acquiring the cards many of these games are sold as complete sets a few were intended to have booster packs but those were ever released this category may also be referred to as an ECG or expandable card game this category also includes lcg's living card games lcg's lcg's are a type of non collectible customizable card game see above and a registered trademark of Fantasy Flight Games they don't use the randomized booster packs like CCGs and instead are bought in a single purchase lcg's are known for costing much less as they are not a collectible topic gameplay mechanics each CCG system has a fundamental set of rules that describes the players objectives the categories of cards used in the game and the basic rules by which the cards interact each card will have additional text explaining that specific cards effect on the game they also generally represent some specific element derived from the games genre setting or source material the cards are illustrated and named for these source elements and the cards game function may relate to the subject for example Magic the Gathering is based on the fantasy genre so many of the cards represent creatures and magical spells from that setting in the game a dragon is illustrated as a reptilian Beast and typically has the flying ability and higher combat stats than smaller creatures the bulk of CCGs are designed around a resource system by which the pace of each game is controlled frequently the cards which constitute a player's deck are considered a resource with the frequency of cards moving from the deck to the play area or player's hand being tightly controlled relative card strength is often balanced by the number or type of resources needed in order to play the card and pacing after that may be determined by the flow of cards moving in and out of play resources may be specific cards themselves or represented by other means eg tokens in various resource pools symbols on cards etc unlike traditional card games such as poker or Crazy Eights in which a decks content is limited and predetermined players select which cards will compose their deck from any available cards printed for the game this allows a CCG player to strategically customize their deck to take advantage of favorable card interactions combinations and statistics while a player's deck can theoretically be of any size a deck of 45 or 60 cards is considered the optimal size for reasons of playability and has been adopted by most CCGs as an arbitrary standard deck size deck construction may also be controlled by the games rules some games such as Magic the Gathering limit how many copies of a particular card can be included in a deck such limits force players to think creatively when choosing cards and deciding on the playing strategy each match of a CCG is generally one-on-one with another opponent but many CCGs have variants for more players typically the goal of a match is to play cards that reduce the opponent's life total to zero before the opponent can do the same some CCGs provide for a match to end if a player has no more cards in their deck to draw during a game players usually take turns playing cards and performing game related actions the order and titles of these steps vary between different CCGs but the following are typical ready phase a player's own in play cards are readied for the upcoming turn draw phase the player draws one or more cards from his or her own deck this is necessary in order to circulate cards in player's hands main phase the player uses the cards in hand and in play to interact with the game or to gain and expend resources some games allow for more than one of these phases combat phase this typically involves some sort of attack against the other player which that player defends against using their own cards such a phase is the primary method for victory in most games end of turn the player discards to the game's maximum hand size if it has won an end of turn effects occur broadly cards played can either represent a resource a character or minion spells or abilities that directly impact players or creatures or objects that have other effects on the game state many CCGs have rules where opposing players can react to the current player's turn an example is casting a counter spell to an opponent's spell to cancel it such as in Magic the Gathering other CCGs do not have such direct reaction systems but allow players to cast facedown cards or traps that automatically trigger based on actions of the opposing player topic distribution specific game cards are most often produced in various degrees of scarcity generally denoted as fixed F common C uncommon u and rare are some games use alternate or additional designations for the relative rarity levels such as super ultra mythic or exclusive rares special cards may also only be available through promotions events purchase of related material or redemption programs the idea of rarity borrows somewhat from other types of collectible cards such as baseball cards but in CCGs the level of rarity also denotes the significance of a cards effect in the game ie the more powerful a card is in terms of the game the greater its rarity a powerful card whose effects were underestimated by the game's designers may increase in rarity in later reprints such a card might even be removed entirely from the next edition to further limit its availability and its effect on gameplay most collectible card games are distributed as sealed packs containing a subset of the available cards much like trading cards the most common distribution methods are starter deck an introductory deck that contains enough cards for one player it may contain random or a predetermined selection of cards starter set an introductory product that contains enough cards for two players the card selection is usually predetermined and non-random themed deck or tournament deck most CCGs are designed with opposing factions themes or strategies a themed deck is composed of predetermined cards that fit these motifs booster packs the most common distribution method booster packs for CCGs usually contain 8 to 15 cards topic history of the collectible card game you topic prehistory regular card games have been around since at least the 1300s but in 1993 a new kind of card game appeared it was different because the player could not buy all the cards at once players would first buy starter decks and then later be encouraged to buy booster packs to expand their selection of cards what emerged was a card game that players collected and treasured but also played with the very first collectible card game created was Magic the Gathering invented by Richard Garfield and patented by Wizards of the coast in 1993 it's considered the most successful CCG and many other companies have tried to emulate its success it was based on Garfield's game 5 Magic's from 1982 Alan Varney of Dragon magazine claimed the designer of cosmic encounter Peter Alaka spoke of the idea of designing a collectible card game as early as 1979 the baseball card game a prototype from 1904 is a notable precursor to CCGs because it had a few similar qualities but it never saw production to qualify it as a collectible card game it is not known if the game was intended to be a standalone product or something altogether different like Top Trumps the game consisted of a limited 112 cards and never saw manufacture passed the marketing stage in 1951 tops released the baseball card game that resembled CCGs because the game cards were sold in random packs and were collectible however the game required no strategic play to operate to play the game players used a randomized deck to migrate their characters around a baseball diamond interaction between the two players was limited to who scored the most points and was otherwise a solitaire like function since players could not play simultaneously but in tandem this game seemed to be a follow-up of a game from 1947 called batter up by edu cards Corp the game was not sold in random packs but instead the entirety of the game could be obtained with one purchase it utilized the same baseball diamond rules that Tops adopted in 1951 other notable entries that resemble and predate the CCG are strata Mich nuclear war battle cards and Illuminati when designing Magic the Gathering Garfield borrowed elements from the boardgame Cosmic Encounter which also used cards for gameplay topic Wizards of the coast and Magic the Gathering 1993-1994 prior to the advent of the CCG the market for alternative games was dominated by role-playing games RPG in particular Dungeons & Dragons by TSR Wizards of the coast Wizards a new company formed in Peter adkison's basement in 1990 was looking to enter the RPG market with its series called the primal order which converted characters to other RPG series after a suit from palladium Books which could have financially ruined the company Wizards acquired another RPG called Tallis Landa this was after Lisa Stevens joined the company in 1991 as vice president after having left White Wolf through their mutual friend Mike Davis Adkison met Richard Garfield who at the time was a doctoral student Garfield and Davis had an idea for a game called roborally and pitched the idea to Wizards of the coast in 1991 but Wizards did not have the resources to manufacture it and instead challenged Garfield to make a game that would pay for the creation of roborally this game would require minimal resources to make in only about 15 to 20 minutes to play in December 1991 Garfield had a prototype for a game called mana clash and by 1993 he established Garfield games to attract publishers and to get a larger share of the company should it become successful originally mana clash was designed with wizards in mind but the suit between palladium books and wizards was still not settled investment money was eventually secured from wizards and the name mana clash was changed to Magic the Gathering the ads for it first appeared in cryptic a magazine that focused on RPGs on the July 4th weekend of 1993 the game premiered at the origins game fair in Fort Worth Texas in the following month of August the game was released and sold out its initial print run of 2.6 million cards immediately creating more demand wizards quickly released new iterations of the corset called beta 7.3 million card print run an unlimited 35 million card print run in an attempt to satisfy orders as well as to fix small errors in the game December also saw the release of the first expansion called Arabian Nights with Magic the Gathering still the only CCG on the market it released another expansion called antiquities which experienced collation problems another core set iteration named revised was released shortly after that demand was still not satiated as the game grew by leaps and bounds Legends was released in mid-1994 and no end was in sight for the excitement over the new CCG topic CCG craves mid-1994 - 1995 what followed was the CCG craze magic was so popular that game stores could not keep it on their shelves more and more orders came for the product and as other game makers looked on they realized that they had to capitalize on this new fad the first to do so was TSR who rushed their own game spell fire into production and was released in June 1994 through this period of time magic was hard to obtain because production never met the demand store owners placed large inflated orders in an attempt to circumvent allocations placed by distributors this practice would eventually catch up to them when printing capacity met demand coinciding with the expansion of fallen empires released in November 1994 combined with the releases of nine other CCGs among them galactic empires deciphers Star Trek on the edge and super deck Steve Jackson games which was heavily involved in the alternative game market look to tap into the new CCG market and figured the best way was to adapt their existing Illuminati game the result was Illuminati New World Order which followed with two expansions in 1995 and 1998 another entry by Wizards of the coast was jihad the game sold well but not nearly as well as magic however it was considered a great competitive move by wizard as jihad was based on one of the most popular intellectual properties in the alternative game market which kept white wolf from aggressively competing with magic by this time however it may have been a moot point as the CCG market had hit its first obstacle too much product the overprinted expansion of Magic's fallen empires threatened to upset the relationship that Wizards had with its distributors as many complained of getting too much product despite their original over ordering practices in early 1995 the gamma trade show previewed upcoming games for the year one out of every three games announced at the show was a CCG publishers other than game makers were now entering the CCG market such as Don Roose Upper Deck Fleer tops comic images and others the CCG bubble appeared to be on everyone's mind too many CCGs were being released and not enough players existed to meet the demand in 1995 alone 38 entered the market among them the most notable being duke trooper middle-earth overpower rage shadow fist legend of the Five Rings and SimCity jihad saw a makeover and was renamed as vampire the eternal struggle to distance itself from the Islamic term jihad as well as to get closer to the source material the Star Trek CCG from decipher was almost terminated after disputes with Paramount announced that the series would end in 1997 but by the end of the year the situation was resolved and decipher regained the license to the Star Trek franchise along with Deep Space 9 Voyager and the movie first contact enthusiasm from manufacturers was very high but by the summer of 1995 at GenCon retailers had noticed CCG sales were lagging the magic expansion chronicles released in November and was essentially a compilation of older sets it was maligned by collectors and they claimed it devalued their collections besides this aspect the market was still reeling from too much product as fallen empires still sat on shelves alongside newer magic expansions like Ice Age the one new CCG that retailers were hoping to save their sales Star Wars wasn't released until very late in December by then Wizards of the coast the lead seller in the CCG market had announced a downsizing in their company and it was followed by a layoff of over 30 jobs the excess product and lag in sales also coincided with an 8 month long gap in between magic the gatherings expansions the longest in its history in Hungary power cards card game or hkk was released in 1995 and was inspired by Magic the Gathering hkk was later released in the Czech Republic hkk is still being made topics stabilization and consolidation 1996 1997 in early 1996 the CCG market was still reeling from its recent failures in glut of product including the release of Wizards expansion homelands which was rated as the worst magic expansion to date the next two years would mark a cool-off period for the oversaturated CCG market additionally manufacturers slowly came to understand that having a CCG was not enough to keep it along they also had to support organized players through tournaments combined with a new dichotomy between collectors and players especially among magic players more emphasis was placed on the game rather than the collectability of the cards plenty more CCGs were introduced in 1996 chief among them were battle tech the x-files mythos and Wizards very own net runner many established CCGs were in full swing releasing expansions every few months but even by this time many CCGs from only two years ago had already died TSR had ceased production of spell fire and attempted another collectible game called dragon dice which failed shortly after being released on june 3rd of 1997 Wizards of the coast announced that it had acquired TSR and its Dungeons & Dragons property which also gave them control of GenCon wizards now had its long-sought role-playing game and it quickly discontinued all plans to continue producing dragon dice as well as any hopes of resuming production of the spell fire CCG decipher was now sanctioning tournaments for their Star Trek and Star Wars games Star Wars was also enjoying strong success from the recently re-released Star Wars special edition films in fact the CCG would remain the second best-selling CCG until the introduction of pokemon in 1999 Wizards continued acquiring properties and bought five Rings Publishing Group Inc creators of the legend of the Five Rings CCG Star Trek The Next Generation collectible dice game and the soon-to-be-released dune CCG On June 26th Wizards also acquired and and unlimited which by association gave them control over the origins convention by September Wizards was awarded a patent for its trading card game later in October Wizards announced that it would seek royalty payments from other CCG companies allegedly only Harper Prizm announced its intention to pay these royalties for its game image iike other CCGs acknowledged the patent on their packaging 0.1 997 saw a slowdown in the release of new CCG games only seven new games came out among them dune I of the storm Babylon 5 shadow run image eeka and aliens predator Babylon 5 saw moderate success a few years before its publisher precedents succumb to a non renewal of its license later on in 2001 also in 1997 vampire the eternal struggle ceased production however Wizards of the coast attempted to enter a more mainstream market with the release of a watered-down version of magic called portal its creation is considered a failure along with its follow-up portal second age released in 1998 topic Wizards of the coast dominates Hasbro steps in 1998-1999 by February 1998 one out of every two CCG sold was Magic the Gathering only seven new CCGs were introduced that year all but two being Wizards of the coast product c23 doom town Hercules The Legendary Journeys legend of the burning sands and Xena Warrior Princess were those five and only doom Town met with better than average reviews before its run was terminated and the rights returned to all dirac c-23 Hercules and Xena were all a part of a new simplified CCG system wizards had created for beginners called The Arc System it had four distinct types of cards resource character combat and action the system also utilized the popular tapping mechanic of Magic the Gathering this system was abandoned shortly afterwards despite limited success or no success at all in the rest of the CCG market magic had recovered and wizards learned from its lessons of 1995 in early 1996 players still enjoyed the game and were gobbling up its latest expansions of tempest stronghold Exodus and by year's end versus saga which added new enthusiasm to Magic's fan base in light of some of the cards being too powerful in early 1999 Wizards released the Pokemon TCG to the mass market the game benefited from the Pokemon fad also of that year at first there wasn't enough product to meet demand some retailers perceived the shortage to be in part related to Wizards as recent purchase of the game keeper stores where it was assumed they received Pokemon shipments more often than non-affiliated stores by the summer of 1999 the Pokemon TCG became the first CCG to outsell Magic the Gathering the success of Pokemon brought renewed interest to the CCG market and many new companies began pursuing this established customer base large retail stores such as Walmart and Target began carrying CCGs and by the end of September Hasbro was convinced on its profitability and bought Wizards of the coast for 325 million dollars a small selection of new CCGs also arrived in 1999 among them young Jedi Tomb Raider Austin Powers 7c and The Wheel of Time you topic transitions and refining of the market mm by 2000 the ups and downs of the CCG market was old had to its retailers they foresaw pokémons inevitable fall from grace as the fad reached its peak in april of that year the panic associated with the / flooding of the CCGs from 1995 and 1996 was absent and the retailers withstood the crash of pokémon yet CCGs benefited from the popularity of Pokemon and they saw an uptick in the number of CCGs released and an overall increased interest in the genre pokemons mainstream success in the CCG world also highlighted an increasing trend of CCGs being marketed with existing intellectual properties especially those with an existing television show such as a cartoon new CCGs introduced in 2000 included notable entries in Sailor Moon The Terminator digi battle Dragon Ball Z collectible card game magi-nation and x-men vampires the eternal struggle resumed production in 2000 after white wolf regained full rights and released the first new expansion in three years called Sabbat war Wizards of the coast introduced a new Sports ECG called MLB showdown as well decipher released its final chronological expansion of the original Star Wars trilogy called Death Star 2 and would continue to see a loss in sales as interest waned in succeeding expansions and their Star Wars license was not being renewed mage Knight was also released this year and would seek to challenge the CCG market by introducing miniatures into the mix though not technically a CCG it would target the same player base for sales the real shake-up in the industry however came when Hasbro laid off more than 100 workers at Wizards of the coast and ended its attempts at an online version of the game when it sold off their interactive division coinciding with this turn of events was Peter adkison's decision to resign and Lisa Stevens whose job ended when the Duelist magazine published by Wizards of the coast was cancelled by the parent company with Adkison went Wizards acquirement of Gen Con and the origins convention went to Gama Hasbro also ceased production of legends of the Five Rings in 2000 and it resumed production when it was sold to Alder ACK in 2001 you topic franchise trends continue 2001-2002 as seen in 2000 the years 2001 in 2002 continued on with the CCG market being less likely to take chances on new and original intellectual properties but instead it would invest in CCGs that were based off existing franchises cartoons movies television and books influenced the creation of such CCGs as Harry Potter the Lord of the Rings a game of Thrones Buffy the Vampire Slayer yu-gi-oh and to Star Wars CCGs Jedi Knights in a rebooted Star Wars TCG by decipher and Wizards of the coast they followed the demise of the original Star Wars CCG by decipher in December of 2001 but they would see very little interest and eventually that two games were cancelled other niche CCGs were also made including warlord and Warhammer 40,000 upperdeck had its first hit with yu-gi-oh the game was known to be popular in Japan but until 2002 had not been released in the United States the game was mostly distributed to big retailers with hobby stores added to their distribution afterwards by the end of 2002 the game was the top CCG even though it was nowhere near the phenomenon that Pokemon was the card publisher precedents produced a new CCG in 2001 based on The rifts RPG by palladium rifts had top-of-the-line artwork but the size of the starter deck was similar in size to the RPG books precedences other main CCG babylon 5 ended its decent run in 2001 after the company lost its license the game was terminated and the publisher later folded in 2002 the release of the Lord of the Rings CCG marked the release of the 100th new CCG since 1993 in 2002 also marked the release of the 500th CCG expansion for all CCGs The Lord of the Rings CCG briefly beat out sales of magic for a few months magic continued a steady pace releasing successful expansion blocks with Odyssey and onslaught decipher released the motion pictures expansion for the Star Trek's ECG and also announced that it would be the last expansion for the game decipher then released the second edition for the Star Trek's ECG which refined the rules rebooted the game and introduced new card frames collectible miniatures games continued their effort to take a slice of the pie away from the CCG market with the releases of HeroClix in MechWarrior in 2002 but saw limited success topic a second wave of new CCGs 2003 to 2005 the next few years saw a large increase in the number of companies willing to start a new CCG no small thanks to the previous successes of Pokemon and yu-gi-oh many new CC G's entered the market many of which tried to continue the trend of franchise tie-ins notable entries include The Simpsons SpongeBob SquarePants Neopets GI Joe hecatomb Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and many others Duel Masters was introduced to the United States after strong popularity in Japan the previous two years Wizards of the coast published it for a couple years before it was cancelled in the US due to weak sales to warhammer CCGs were released with Horus heresy and war cry Horus heresy lasted two years and was succeeded by dark millennium in 2005 also two entries from decipher were released one that passed the torch from their Star Wars CCG two wars wars kept most of the gameplay mechanics from their Star Wars game but transferred them to a new and original setting the game did not do particularly well and after two expansions the game was canceled in 2005 the other new CCG was hack enemy which won an origins award the game was also cancelled in 2005 plenty of other CCGs were attempted by various publishers many that were based on Japanese manga such as beyblade Gundam war one piece inuyasha zatch bell case closed and YuYu Hakusho existing CCGs were reformatted or rebooted including Dragon Ball Z as Dragon Ball GT and Digimon detector as the Digimon collectible card game an interesting CCG released by upper deck was called the vs. system it incorporated the Marvel and DC Comics universes and pitted the heroes and villains from those universes against one another similarly the game ufs the universal fighting system used characters from Street Fighter Soul Calibur Tekken Megaman Darkstalkers etc this CCG was obtained by Jasco Games in 2010 and is currently still being made another CCG titled Call of Cthulhu was the spiritual successor to mythos by the publisher Chaos iam Chaos iam Lysa the game to Fantasy Flight Games who produced the CCG probably one of the biggest developments in the CCG market was the release of magics 8th edition corset it introduced a redesigned cardboard er and it would later mark the beginning of a new play format titled modern that utilized cards from this set onward another development was Pokemon originally published by Wizards was sold to Nintendo in June 2003 this would start a slow revival for the brand though never reaching the 1999 craze topic the CCG Renaissance continues 2006-present the previous year's influx of new CCGs continued into 2006 riding on the success of the popular PC game world of warcraft blizzard entertainment licensed upper deck to publish a TCG based on the game the world of warcraft TCG was born and was carried by major retailers but saw limited success until it was discontinued in 2013 prior to the release of blizzards digital card game hearthstone following previous trends Japanese influenced CCGs continued to enter the market these games were either based on cartoons or manga and included Naruto Avatar The Last Airbender bleach Rangers strike and the classic series Robo tech Dragon Ball GT was rebooted once again in 2008 and renamed as Dragonball many other franchises were made into CC G's with a few reboots notable ones included card fight Vanguard Conan Battlestar Galactica Power Rangers 2040 CG Redakai Monsuno and others as well as another attempt at Doctor Who in the United Kingdom in Australia publisher alder act released City of Heroes CCG based on the City of Heroes PC game another video game Kingdom Hearts for the ps2 was turned into the Kingdom Hearts TCG by Tomy a few other CCGs were released only in other countries and never made it overseas to english-speaking countries including Monster Hunter of Japan and Vande Area Wars of Indonesia by the end of 2008 trouble was brewing between Konami who owned the rights to yu-gi-oh and its licensee upper deck meanwhile strong sales continued with the three top CC G's of Pokemon yu-gi-oh and Magic the Gathering the Warhammer series dark millennium ended its run in 2007 Magic the Gathering saw a large player boom in 2009 with the release of the Zendikar expansion the spike in the number of Magic players continued for a few years and leveled off by 2015 interest also developed with their

selecting cards from a larger pool Garfield transferred the patent to Wizards of the coast the patent has aroused criticism from some observers who believe some of its claims to be invalid peter Adkison CEO of wizards at the time remarked that his company was interested in striking a balance between the free flow of ideas and the continued growth of the game business with the ability to be compensated by others who incorporate our patented method of play into their games Adkison continued to say they had no intention of stifling the industry that originated from the success of magic in

please visit librivox.org recording by sue anderson the story of a common soldier of army life in the civil war 1861 1865 by leander stillwell chapter 23 murfreesboro winter of 1864 1865. franklin spring and summer of 1865. after the retreat of hood from nashville matters became very quiet and uneventful with us at murfreesboro the regiment shifted its camp from inside of fortress rosencrantz out into open ground on the outskirts of the town and proceeded to build winter quarters these consisted of log cabins like those we built at little rock the previous winter only now the logs were cedar instead of pine there were extensive cedar forests in the immediate vicinity of murfreesboro and we had no difficulty whatever in getting the material and we had plenty of nice fragrant cedarwood to burn in our fireplaces which was much better than soggy arkansas pine and i remember with pleasure a matter connected with durations we had in the four part of the winter for some reason or other the supply of hardtack became practically exhausted and we had little in the line of flower bread even for some weeks after hood retreated from nashville but in the country north of murfreesboro was an abundance of corn and there were plenty of water mills so general rousseau sent out foraging parties in that region and appropriated the corn and set the mills to grinding it and oh what fine cornbread we had we used to make ash cakes and they were splendid the method of making and cooking an ash cake was to mix a quantity of meal with proper proportions of water grease and salt wrap the meal dough in some dampened paper or a clean wet cloth then put it in the fire and cover it with hot ashes and coals by testing with a sharp stick we could tell when the cake was done then we would yank it from the fire scrape off the fragments of the covering and the adhering ashes and then with bacon broiled on the cedar coals and plenty of good strong coffee we would have a dinner better than any from my standpoint that delmonicos ever served up in its palmiest days on february 4th 1865 the non-veterans and recruits of the regiment came to us from arkansas and so we were once more all together except a few that were in the confederate prisons down south we were all glad to see each other once more and had many tales to swap about our respective experiences during our separation on february 10th lieutenant wallace resigned and returned to his home in illinois the chief reason for his resignation was on account of some private matter at home which was giving him much anxiety and trouble further the war in the region where we were was practically over and there was nothing doing with no prospect so far as we knew of any military activity for the regiment in the future wallace's resignation left company d without a second lieutenant as we then did not have enough enlisted men in the company to entitle us to a full complement of commissioned officers and the place remained vacant for some months on march 21st we left murfreesboro by rail and went to nashville and thence to franklin about 20 miles south of nashville and on what was then called the nashville and decatur railroad a desperate and bloody battle occurred here between our forces under the command of general shofield and the confederates under general hood on november 30th only two days after our arrival at murfreesboro i have often wondered why it was that general thomas our department commander did not send our regiment on our arrival at nashville to reinforce shofield instead of to murfreesboro for general schofield certainly needed all the help he could get but it is probable that general thomas had some good reason for his action when we arrived at franklin we relieved the regiment that was on duty there as a garrison and it went somewhere else it was the 75th pennsylvania and the officers and men composing it so far as i saw were all germans and they were fine soldierly looking fellows too from this time until we left franklin in the following september our regiment comprised all the union force that was stationed at the town major knowlton was in command of the post and subject only to hire authorities at a distance we were monarchs of all we surveyed when we came to franklin the signs of the battle of november 30th were yet fresh and plentiful as soon as time and opportunity afforded i walked over the whole field in fact several times looking with deep interest at all the evidences of the battle i remember especially the appearance of a scattered grove of young locust trees which stood at a point opposite the right center of the union line for some hours the grove was right between the fire of both the union and the confederate lines and the manner in which the trees had been riddled with musket balls was truly remarkable it looked as if a snowbird could not have lived in that grove while the firing was in progress general william a quarles of tennessee was one of the confederate generals who were wounded in this battle and after incurring his wound was taken to the house of a tennessee planter colonel mcgavock about a mile from franklin near the harpeth river two or three other wounded confederate officers of less rank were taken to the same place when the confederates retreated from nashville general quarles and these other wounded officers were unable to accompany the army they remained at mcgavock's and were taken prisoners by our forces they were put under a sort of parole of honor and allowed to remain where they were without being guarded they had substantially recovered from their wounds at the time our regiment arrived at franklin and not long thereafter captain keeley came to me one day and handed me an order from major knowlton which directed me to take a detail of four men with two ambulances and go to mcavooks and get general quarles and the other confederate officers who were there and bring them into franklin for the purpose of being sent to nashville and thence to the north to some military prison i thereupon detailed bill banfield and three other boys told them what our business was and instructed them to brush up nicely and have their arms and accoutrements in first class condition and in general to be looking their best having obtained the ambulances with drivers we climbed aboard and soon arrived at the fine residence of old colonel mcgavock i went into the house met the lady of the establishment and inquired of her for general quarles and was informed that he was in an upper room i requested the lady to give the general my compliments and tell him that i desired to see him she disappeared and soon the general walked into the room where i was awaiting him he was a man slightly below medium stature heavy set black hair piercing black eyes and looked to be about 30 years old he was a splendid looking soldier i stepped forward and saluted him and briefly and courteously told him my business all right sergeant he answered will be ready in a few minutes their preparations were soon completed and we left the house i assigned the general and one of the other officers to a seat near the front in one of the ambulances and bill banfield and i occupied the seat behind them and the remaining guards and prisoners wrote in the other conveyance there was only one remark made on the entire trip back to franklin and i'll mention it presently we emerged from the woods into the columbia pike at a point about three quarters of a mile in front of our main line of works that had been charged repeatedly and desperately by the confederates in the late battle the ground sloped gently down towards the works and for fully half a mile was as level as a house floor i noticed that at the moment we reached the pike general quarles began to take an intense interest in the surroundings he would lean forward and look to the right to the front to the left and occasionally throw a hasty glance backward but said nothing finally we passed through our works near the historic cotton gin and the general drew a deep breath leaned back against his seat and said well by god the next time i fight at franklin i want to let the columbia pike severely alone no one made any response and the remainder of the journey was finished in silence i duly delivered general quarles and his fellow prisoners to major knowlton and never saw any of them again early in april a decisive military operations took place in virginia on the third of that month our forces marched into richmond and on the 9th the army of general lee surrendered to general grant at franklin we were on a telegraph line and only about 20 miles from department headquarters so the intelligence of those events was not long in reaching us i am just unable to tell how profoundly gratified we were to hear of the capture of richmond and of lee's army we were satisfied that those victories meant the speedy and triumphant end of the war it had been a long desperate and bloody struggle and frequently the final results looked doubtful and gloomy but now there were signs in the sky that the darkness was gone there were tokens in endless array and the feeling among the common soldiers was one of heartfelt relief and satisfaction but suddenly our joy was turned into the most distressing grief and mourning only a few days after we heard of lee's surrender came the awful tidings of the foul murder of mr lincoln i well remember the manner of the men when the intelligence of the dastardly crime was flashed to us at franklin they seemed dazed and stunned and were reluctant to believe it until the fact was confirmed beyond question they sat around in camp under the trees talking low and sane but little as if the matter were one that made mere words utterly useless but they were in a desperate frame of mind and had there been the least appearance of exaltation over the murder of mr lincoln by any of the people of franklin the place would have been laid in ash's instanter but the citizens seemed to understand the situation they went into their houses and closed their doors and the town looked as if deserted to one who had been among the soldiers for some years it was easy to comprehend and understand their feelings on this occasion for the last two years of the war especially the men had come to regard mr lincoln with sentiments of veneration and love to them he really was father abraham with all that the term implied and this regard was also entertained by men of high rank in the army general sherman and speaking of mr lincoln says this quote of all the men i ever met he seemed to possess more of the elements of greatness combined with goodness than any other memoirs of general w t sherman revised edition volume 2 page 328. for my part i have been of the opinion for many years that abraham lincoln was the greatest man the world has ever known in the latter part of june the recruits of the 83rd the 98th and the 123rd illinois infantry were transferred to the 61st making the old regiment about 900 strong company d received 46 of the transferred men all of these being from the 83rd illinois and they were a fine set of boys too their homes were in the main in northwestern illinois in the counties of mercer rock island and warren they all had received a good common school education were intelligent and prompt and cheerful in the discharge of their duties they were good soldiers in every sense of the word it is a little singular that since the muster out of the regiment in the following september i have never met a single one of those boys the ranks of the regiment now being filled nearly to the maximum the most of the vacancies that existed in the line of commissioned offices were filled just as promptly as circumstances would permit lieutenant colonel grass had been discharged on may 15 1865 and major knowlton who was now our ranking field officer was on july 11th promoted to the position of colonel he was the first and only colonel the regiment ever had the vacancy of lieutenant colonel c of the regiment was never filled for what reason i do not know captain keeley was promoted major and first lieutenant warren to captain of company d in keely's stead and thus it came to pass that on july 11th i received a commission as second lieutenant of our company and on august 21st was promoted to first lieutenant soon after receiving my commission captain warren was detailed on some special duty which took him away from franklin for some weeks and consequently during his absence i was the commanding officer of company d so far as ever came to my knowledge i got along all right and very pleasantly it is a fact at any rate that i presented a more respectable appearance than that which was displayed during the brief time i held the position at austin arkansas in may 1864. end of chapter 23 chapter 24 of the story of a common

by sue anderson the story of a common soldier of army life in the civil war 1861 1865 by leander stillwell chapter 24 the soldiers pay rations allusions to some of the useful lessons learned by service in the army in time of war courage in battle this story is now drawing to a close so i will here speak of some things of a general nature and which have not been heretofore mentioned except perhaps casually one important feature in the life of a soldier was the matter of his pay and a few words on that subject may not be out of place when i enlisted in january 1862 the monthly pay of the enlisted men of a regiment of infantry was as follows first sergeant twenty dollars duty sergeants 17 corporals and privates 13. by act of congress of may 1st 1864 the monthly pay of the enlisted men was increased and from that date was as follows first sergeant 24 duty sergeants 20 corporals 18 privates 16 that rate existed as long at least as we remain in the service the first payment made to our regiment was on may 1st 1862 while we were in camp at owl creek tennessee the amount i received was forty 49.40 and of this i sent forty five dollars home to my father at the first opportunity for a poor man he was heavily in debt at the time of my enlistment and was left without any boys to help him to do the work upon the farm so i regarded it as my duty to send him every dollar of my pay that possibly could be spared and did so as long as i was in the service but he finally got out of debt during the war he had good crops and all manner of farm products brought high prices so the war period was financially a prosperous one for him and to be fair about it i will say that he later repaid me when i was pursuing my law studies at the albany new york law school almost all the money i had sent him while in the army so the result really was that the money received by me as a soldier was what later enabled me to qualify as a lawyer i have here to force said in these reminiscences that the great standbys in the way of the food of the soldiers of the western armies were coffee sow belly yankee beans and hard tack but other articles of diet were also issued to us some of which we liked while others were flat failures i have previously said something about the antipathy i had for rice the french general baron google in his talks of napoleon at saint helena page 240 records napoleon as having said rice is the best food for the soldier napoleon in my opinion was the greatest soldier that mankind ever produced but all the same i emphatically dissent from his rice proposition his remark may have been correct when applied to european soldiers of his time and place but i know it wouldn't fit western american boys of 1861-65 there were a few occasions when an article of diet was issued called desiccated potatoes for dessicated the boys promptly substituted desecrated and desecrated potatoes was its name among the rank and file from start to finish it consisted of irish potatoes cut up fine and thoroughly dried in appearance it much resembled the modern preparation called grape nuts we would mix it in water grease and salt and make it up into little cakes which we would fry and they were first rate there was a while when we were at bolivar tennessee that some stuff called compressed vegetables was issued to us which the boys almost unanimously considered an awful fraud it was composed of all sorts of vegetables pressed into small bales in a solid mass and as dry as threshed straw the conglomeration contained turnip tops cabbage leaves string beans pot and all onion blades and possibly some of every other kind of a vegetable that ever grew in a garden it came to the army in small boxes about the size of the chinese tea boxes that were frequently seen in this country about 50 years ago in the process of cooking it would swell up prodigiously a great deal more so than rice the germans in the regiment would make big dishes of soup out of this baled hay as we called it and they liked it but the native americans after one trial wouldn't touch it i think about the last box of it that was issued to our company was pitched into a ditch in the rear of the camp and it soon got thoroughly soaked and loomed up about as big as a fair-sized haycock split peas were issued to us more or less during all the time we were in the service my understanding was that they were the ordinary garden peas they were split in two dried and about as hard as gravel but they yielded to cooking made excellent food and we were all fond of them in our opinion when properly cooked they were almost as good as yankee beans when our forces captured little rock in september 1863 we obtained possession among other plunder of quite a quantity of confederate commissary stores among these was a copious supply of jerked beef it consisted of narrow thin strips of beef which had been dried on scaffolds in the sun and it is no exaggeration to say that it was almost as hard and dry as cottonwood chip our manner of eating it was simply to cut off a chunk about as big as one of our elongated musket balls and proceed to chaw it was rather a comical sight to see us in our cabins of a cold winter night sitting by the fire and all solemnly chawing away in profound silence on the johnny's jerk beef but if sufficiently masticated it was nutritious and healthful and we all liked it i often thought it would have been a good thing if the government had made this kind of beef a permanent and regular addition to our rations as long as kept in the dry it would apparently keep indefinitely and a piece big enough to last a soldier two or three days would take up but little space in a haversack passing from the topic of army rations i will now take leave to say here with sincerity and emphasis that the best school to fit me for the practical affairs of life that i ever attended was in the old 61st illinois during the civil war it would be too long a story to undertake to tell all the benefits derived from that experience but a few will be alluded to in the first place when i was a boy at home i was to some extent a spoiled child i was exceedingly particular and finicky about my food fat meat i abhorred and wouldn't touch it and on the other hand when we had chicken to eat the gizzard was claimed by me as my soul and exclusive tidbit and leander always got it let it be known that in the regiment these habits were gotten over so soon that i was astonished myself the army in time of war is no place for a boy it will make a man of him quicker in my opinion than any other sort of experience he could undergo and suffice it to say on the food question that my life as a soldier forever cured me of being fastidious or fault-finding about what i had to eat i have gone hungry too many times to give way to such weakness when sitting down in a comfortable room to a table provided with plenty that was good enough for any reasonable man i have no patience with a person who is addicted to complaining or growling about his food some years ago there was an occasion when i took breakfast at a decent little hotel at a countryway station on a railroad out in kansas it was an early breakfast for the accommodation of guests who would leave on an early morning train and there were only two at the table a young traveling commercial man and myself the drummer ordered with other things a couple of fried eggs and that fellow sent the poor little dining room girl back with those eggs three times before he got them fitted to the exact shade of case to suit his exquisite palette and he did this too in a manner and words that were offensive and almost brutal it was none of my business so i kept my mouth shut and said nothing but i would have given a reasonable sum to have been the proprietor of that hotel about five minutes that fool would then have been ordered to get his grip and leave the house and he would have left too i do not know how it may have been with other regiments in the matter now to be mentioned but i presume it was substantially the same as in ours and the course pursued with us had a direct tendency to make one indifferent as to the precise cut of his clothes it is true that attention was paid to shoes to that extent at least that the quartermaster tried to give each man a pair that approximated to the number he wore but coats trousers and the other clothes were piled up in separate heaps and each man was just thrown the first garment on top of the heap he took it and walked away if it was an outrageous fit he would swap with someone if possible otherwise he got along as best he could now in civil life i have frequently been amused in noting some dutish young fellow in a little country store trying to fit himself out with a light summer coat or something similar he would put on the garment stand in front of a big looking glass twist himself into all sorts of shapes so as to get a view from every possible angle then remove that one and call for another finally after trying on about every coat in the house he would leave without making a purchase having found nothing that suited the exact contour of his delicately molded form a very brief experience in a regiment that had a gruff old quartermaster would take the tuck out of that bowl brummel in short order sometimes i have been at a late hour on a stormy night at a weigh station on some jerk water railroad waiting for a belated train with others in the same predicament and it was comical to note the irritation of some of these fellows and the fuss they made about the train being late the railroad and all the officers would be condemned and abused in the most savage terms on account of this little delay and yet we were in a warm room with benches to sit on with full stomachs and physically just as comfortable as we possibly could be the thought would always occur to me on such episodes that if those kickers had to sit down in a dirt road in the mud with a cold grain pelting down on them and just endure all this until a broken bridge in front was fixed up so that the artillery and wagon train could get along then a few incidents of that kind would be a benefit to them and instances like the foregoing might be multiplied indefinitely on the whole life in the army in a time of war tended to develop patience contentment with the surroundings and equanimity of temper and mind in general and from the highest to the lowest differing only in degree it would bring out energy prompt decision intelligent action and all the latent force of character a man possessed i suppose in reminiscences of this nature one should give his impressions or views in relation to that much talked about subject courage in battle now in what i have to say on that head i can speak advisedly mainly for myself only i think that the principal thing that held me to the work was simply pride and am of the opinion that it was the same thing with most of the common soldiers a prominent american functionary some years ago said something about our people being too proud to fight with the soldiers of the civil war it was exactly the reverse they were too proud to run unless it was manifest that the situation was hopeless and that for the time being nothing else could be done and in the latter case when the whole line goes back there is no personal odium attaching to any one individual they are all in the same boat the idea of the influence of pride is well illustrated by an old time war story as follows a soldier on the firing line happened to notice a terribly affrighted rabbit running to the rear at the top of its speed go to a cotton tail yelled the soldier i'd run two if i had no more reputation to lose than you have it is true that in the first stages of the war the fighting qualities of american soldiers did not appear in altogether a favorable light but at that time the fact is that the volunteer armies on both sides were not much better than mere armed mobs and without discipline or cohesion but those conditions didn't last long and there was never but one bull run enoch wallace was home on recruiting service some weeks in the fall of 1862 and when he rejoined the regiment he told me something my father said in a conversation that occurred between the two they were talking about the war battles and topics of that sort and in the course of their talk enoch told me that my father said that while he hoped his boy would come through the war all right yet he would rather leander should be killed dead while standing up and fighting like a man than that he should run and disgrace the family i have no thought from the nature of the conversation as told to me by enoch that my father made this remark with any intention of its being repeated to me it was sudden and spontaneous and just the way the old backwoodsman felt but i never forgot it and it helped me several times four to be perfectly frank about it and tell the plain truth i will set it down here that so far as i was concerned a way down in the bottom of my heart i just secretly dreaded a battle but we were soldiers and it was our business to fight when the time came so the only thing to then do was to summon up our pride and resolution and face the ordeal with all the fortitude we could command and while i admit the existence of this feeling of dread before the fight yet it is also true that when it was on and one was in the thick of it with the smell of gunpowder permeating his whole system then a signal change comes over a man he is seized with a furious desire to kill there are his foes right in plain view give it to him d dash them and for the time being he becomes almost oblivious to the sense of danger and while it was only human nature to dread a battle and i think it would be mere affectation to deny it yet i also know that we common soldiers strongly felt that when fighting did break loose close at hand or within the general scope of our operations then we ought to be in it with the others and doing our part that was what we were there for and somehow a soldier didn't feel just right for fighting to be going on all around him or in his vicinity and he doing nothing but lying back somewhere eating government rations but all things considered the best definition of true courage i have ever read is that given by general sherman in his memoirs as follows i would define true courage he says to be a perfect sensibility of the measure of danger and a mental willingness to endure it sherman's memoirs revised edition volume 2 page 395 but i will further say in this connection that in my opinion much depends sometimes especially at a critical moment on the commander of the men who is right on the ground or close at hand this is shown by the result attained by general milroy in the incident i have previously mentioned and on a larger scale the inspiring conduct of general sheridan at the battle of cedar creek virginia is probably the most striking example in modern history of what a brave and resolute leader of men can accomplish under circumstances when apparently all is lost and on the other hand i think there is no doubt that the battle of wilson's creek missouri on august 10 1861 was a union victory up to the time of the death of general lyon and would have remained such if the officer who succeeded lyon had possessed the nerve of his fallen chief but he didn't and so he marched our troops off the field retreated from a beaten enemy and hence wilson's creek figures in history as a confederate victory see the lion campaign by eugene f ware pages 324-339 i have read somewhere this saying of bonaparte's an army of deer commanded by a lion is better than an army of lions commanded by a deer while that statement is only figurative in its nature it is however a strong epigrammatic expression of the fact that the commander of soldiers in battle should be above all other things a forcible determined and brave man end of chapter 24. chapter 25 of the story of a common soldier of army life in the civil war 1861

soldier of army life in the civil war 1861 1865 by leander stillwell chapter 25 franklin summer of 1865 mustered out september 8th 1865. receive final payment at springfield illinois september 27 1865. the regiment breaks ranks forever soldiering at franklin tennessee in may june july and august 1865 was simply of a picnic kind the war was over in that region and everything there was as quiet and peaceful as it was at home in illinois pickett guards were dispensed with and the only guard duty required was a small detail for the colors at regimental headquarters and a similar one over our commissary stores however it was deemed necessary for the health of the men to maintain company drills to a certain extent but they were light and easy near the camp was a fine bluegrass pasture field containing in a scattered irregular form numerous large and magnificent hard maples and the drilling was done in this field captain warren was somewhat portly and not fond of strenuous exercise anyhow so all the drilling company d had at franklin was conducted by myself but i rather liked it with the accession of those 83rd illinois men the old company was about as big and strong as it was at camp carrollton and it looked fine but to tell the truth it is highly probable that we put in fully as much time lying on the bluegrass under the shade of those grand old maples as we did in company evolutions sometime during the course of the summer a middle-aged widow lady named house began conducting a sort of private boarding establishment at her residence in the city and colonel knowlton major keeley and several others of the line officers including myself took our meals at this place during the remainder of our stay at franklin among the borders were two or three gentlemen also of the name of house and who were brothers in law of our hostess they had all served in forests cavalry as commissioned officers and were courteous and elegant gentlemen we would all sit down together at the table of mrs house with that lady at the head and talk and laugh and joke with each other as if we had been comrades and friends all our lives and yet during the four years just proceeding the union and the confederate soldiers thus mingled together in friendship and amity had been doing their very best to kill one another but in our conversation we carefully avoided anything in the nature of political discussion about the war and in general each side refrain from saying anything on that subject which might grate on the feelings of the other on september 4th 1865 the regiment left franklin and went by rail to nashville for the purpose of being mustered out of the service there were some unavoidable delays connected with the business and it was not officially consummated until september 8th in the fornoon of the following day we left nashville on the cars on the louisville and nashville railroad for springfield illinois where we were to receive our final payment and certificates of discharge early on sunday morning september 10th we crossed the ohio river at louisville kentucky on a ferry boat to jeffersonville indiana this boat was provided with a railroad track extending from bow to stern and so arranged that when the boat landed at either bank the rails laid along the lower deck of the boat would closely connect with the railroad track on the land this ferry transferred our train in sections and thus obviated any necessity for the men to leave the cars the ferrying process did not take long and we were soon speeding through southern indiana as stated it was sunday and a bright beautiful autumn day as i have here and before mentioned our train consisted of boxcars except one coach for the commissioned officers and all the men who could find room had taken from preference seats on top of the cars much of southern indiana is rugged and broken and in 1865 was wild heavily timbered and the most of the farmhouses were of the backwoods class we soon began to see little groups of the country people in farm wagons or on foot making their way to sunday school and church women young girls and children predominated all dressed in their sunday go to meeting clothes and how the women and girls cheered us and waved their handkerchiefs and didn't we yell it was self-evident that we were in god's country once more these were the first demonstrations of that kind the old regiment had seen since the girls of monticello seminary in february 1862 lined the fences by the roadside and made similar manifestations of patriotism and goodwill we arrived at indianapolis about noon there got off the cars and went in a body to a soldier's home close at hand where we had a fine dinner thence back to the old train which thundered on the rest of the day and that night arriving at springfield the following day the 11th here we marched out to camp butler near the city and went into camp and now another annoying delay occurred this time being in the matter of our final payment what the particular cause was i do not know probably the pay masters were so busy right then that they couldn't get around to us the most of us that is the old original regiment were here within 60 or 70 miles of our homes and to be compelled to just lie around and wait here at camp butler was rather trying but the boys were patient and on the whole endured the situation with commendable equanimity but the day it came at last and in the fornoon of september 27th we fell in line by companies and each company in its turn marched to the pay masters tent near regimental headquarters the role of the company would be called an alphabetical order and each man as his name was called would answer and step forward to the pay masters table that officer would lay on the table before the man the sum of money he was entitled to and with it his certificate of discharge from the army duly signed by the proper officials the closing of the hand of the soldier over that piece of paper was the final act in the drama that ended his career as a soldier of the civil war now he was a civilian free to come and go as he listed farewell to the morning drumbeats taps roll calls drills marches battles and all the other incidents and events of a soldier's life the series ranks with flags displayed the bugle's thrilling blast the charge the thunderous canon aid the din and shout were passed the scattering out process promptly began after we received our pay and discharges i left springfield early the following day the 28th on the chicago alton and st louis railroad and went to alton here i luckily found a teamster who was in the act of starting with his wagon and team to jerseyville and i rode with him to that place arriving there about the middle of the afternoon i now hunted diligently to find some farm wagon that might be going to the vicinity of home but found none while so engaged to my surprise and delight i met the old chaplain bb hamilton as heretofore stated he had resigned during the previous march and had been at home for some months his greeting to me was in his old fashioned style son of jeremiah he exclaimed as he extended his hand why cometh thou down hither and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness i promptly informed him in effect that my coming was regular and legitimate and that the few sheep of the old regiment were forever through and done with a shepherd hamilton did not reside in jerseyville but had just arrived there from his home in greene county and like me was trying to find some farmer's conveyance to take him about five miles into the country to the home of an old friend i ascertained that his route as far as he went was the same as mine so i proposed that we should strike out on foot but he didn't entertain the proposition with much enthusiasm son of jeremiah said he you will find that a walk of nine miles the distance to my father's will be a great weariness to the flesh on this warm day but i considered it a mere pleasure walk and was determined to go so he finally concluded to do likewise i left my release in the care of a jerseyville merchant and with no baggage except my sword and belt we proceeded to hit the dirt i took off my coat slung it over one shoulder unsnapped my sword with a scabbard from the belt and shouldered it also our walk was a pleasant and most agreeable one as we had much to talk about that was interesting to both when we arrived at the mouth of the lane that led to the house of the chaplain's friend we shook hands and i bade him goodbye but fully expected to meet him many times later but our paths in life diverged and i never saw him again i arrived at the little village of otterville about sundown it was a very small place in 1865. there was just one store which also contained the post office a blacksmith shop the old stone schoolhouse a church and perhaps a dozen or so private dwellings there were no sidewalks and i stocked up the middle of the one street the town afforded with my sword poised on my shoulder musket fashion and feeling happy and proud i looked eagerly around as i passed along hoping to see some old friend as i went by the store a man who was seated therein on the counter leaned forward and looked at me but said nothing a little further up the street a big dog sprang off the porch of a house ran out to the little gate in front and standing on his hind legs with his four paws on the palings barked at me loudly and persistently but i attracted no further attention many of the regiments that were mustered out soon after the close of the war received at home gorgeous receptions they marched under triumphal arches decorated with flags and garlands of flowers while brass bands blared and thousands of people cheered and gave them a most enthusiastic welcome home but the poor old 61st illinois was among the late arrivals the discharge soldiers were now numerous and common and no longer a novelty personally i didn't care rather really preferred to come back home modestly and quietly and without any fuss and feathers whatever still i would have felt better to have met at least one person as i passed through the little village who would have given me a hearty handshake and said he was glad to see me home safe from the war but it's all right for many such were met later i now had only two miles to go and was soon at the dear old boyhood home my folks were expecting me so they were not taken by surprise there was no scene when we met nor any effusive display but we all had a feeling of profound contentment and satisfaction which was too deep to be expressed by mere words when i returned home i found that the farmwork my father was then engaged in was cutting up and shocking corn so the morning after my arrival september 29th i doffed my uniform of first lieutenant put on some of father's old clothes armed myself with a corn knife and proceeded to wage war on the standing corn the feeling i had while engaged in this work was sort of queer it almost seems sometimes as if i had been away only a day or two and had just taken up the farm work where i had left off here this story will close in conclusion i will say that in civil life people have been good to me i have been honored with different positions of trust importance and responsibility and which i have reason to believe i filled to the satisfaction of the public i am proud of the fact of having been deemed worthy to fill those different places but while that is so i will further say in absolute sincerity that to me my humble career as a soldier in the 61st illinois during the war for the union is the record that i prize the highest of all and is the proudest recollection of my life end of chapter 25 end of the story of a common soldier of army life in the civil war 1861 1865

it is interconnected this one is a deep one and I really enjoyed this conversation Our Guest is someone I've been following since 2012 and found inspiration from as she's an OG online Creator and it's been fascinating to see her evolve over the years I'm excited to introduce Christina bazan Christina bazan is an entrepreneur artist and spiritual Seeker opening gateways of knowledge by bridging music fashion and spirituality merged with Grace passion and Beauty to Showcase their interconnectedness hello Christina welcome to the podcast how are you doing today hi Eileen thank you so much for having me it's such an honor I'm good how are you I'm good I'm so excited to have you here I don't know if you realize maybe I did tell you on Instagram but like I have been following you since probably 2014 or probably earlier than that like before Instagram because I remember following your blog way back then oh my God so you're an OG as well I think oh like it was like back in the fashion era I was really into fashion were you on lookbook I was that's how I started yeah oh my God I love those days I miss those days that was the first time oh my God I still think about it and I'm like that was such a good time for Content creators like it was so less competitive less saturated you know chronological feed and all of that good stuff I miss that I know it was so like pure like oh let me just share my outfit and what I think looks pretty so tell us your story as an artist and entrepreneur like how did you get started and take us through like the evolution throughout the years well I have quite an Eclectic story I was born in Minsk in Belarus um and I lived there until the age of four and then my family relocated to Kentucky in the United States so whole different culture whole different set of like values and beliefs like a whole different way of operating reality like Belarus and the United States are honestly Polar Opposites when it comes to like the mentality and the way of like perceiving reality so I guess from an early age I was exposed to kind of like a very open-minded way of perceiving reality and then at the age of six my dad got a job in Switzerland so we relocated to Switzerland in the French part which is where I grew up most of my life and um obviously as a you know immigrant kid I had a really hard time fitting in and constantly adjusting to different cultures you know First America then Switzerland uh each time having to learn you know a new language was a challenge although now I recognize how much of a gift it it was you know and it is but yeah so in Switzerland you know I was once again kind of like exposed to like a cultural shock um although it is kind of like a middle ground between the eastern and western like values I guess um and it was really interesting because that's when I really started developing my love for art and my love for fashion and for creativity I remember um you know I was so excited to be back home after school and go online and scroll through Myspace and blogs it was like the beginning of the blogging digital era I remember you know the just the power that Myspace had at the time and um YouTube as well it was the emergence of a lot of like YouTube personalities and I had such a deep Fascination for that space because I felt like that's where my tribe is like I couldn't relate to the kids at school like I always was really into fashion and makeup and all of that stuff and in Switzerland the culture is much more like athletic all about nature all of which is Beautiful by the way like I love it and it's also part of who I am but I also have this like eccentric side to me where I just want to play around and have fun and experiment with makeups and outfits and so I would spend hours and hours watching Runway shows online and buying Vogue with my pocket money and studying all the designers and memorizing their names and I was just so deeply passionate about it and I wanted to find a community to talk about it because my friends were not really interested in all those things and so at the age of like 14 I started a first blog which was kind of like just for me it was on skyblog and honestly I had a little community on there like it was doing pretty well and then I closed it off and started a new one a little bit more professional which was called cager started it in 2011 alongside with a profile on lookbook where I was posting daily outfits that my boyfriend at the time was shooting because that was also like our mutual like passion he was super into photography and that's kind of like how we bonded and that's kind of like how everything started you know um out of a love for art and fashion and beauty and photography and um I then decided not to go to university and kind of like pursue this career path not really knowing where it would lead me so it was a huge risk especially at the time in 2011 like we didn't know that it could actually become a career path my my family was really concerned and worried yeah but I don't know I just really had this like super strong gut feeling that that is what I meant to do and there's no other option um I also knew that eventually I would be doing music because music had always been a huge part of my life and a huge part of my love for fashion because I always connected fashion music together um and so I just went along with this dream and kind of like fully chose to believe in it and to give it my 100 percent and that's kind of like when everything started and how old were you when you started like did you even have a vision for what it could be at that point or were you just like taking it day by day I was truly taking it day by day I had a vision for sure I knew that I had a a talent for writing like I always knew that I was really good at writing and that no matter what I didn't want to have someone tell me how to write or what to write or how to take my photos because obviously I had considered working for like a magazine um or working for a fashion brand like that was in the back of my head but I always knew that I couldn't follow like such a specific path that I had to keep my doors open and allow myself to explore different creative Pathways I knew that music would be part of my life I knew that um I would be doing something that can't really be put in a box you know so I felt like being a content creator would allow me the freedom to experiment and explore and reinvent myself so there was a vision but there was also room for flexibility and fluidity and Flow and I'm really glad because I feel like this space like the content creator space is is evolving every single month and you have to be able to adapt um to stay relevant you know um there's a lot of beauty to that uh because it's always challenging you and you can never take anything for granted but there's also a pressure you know that you can never like truly fully like be like oh I got this it's all good like right like okay you can never just Coast yeah exactly exactly let's take a break for our sponsor the show is brought to you by betterhelp have you ever stopped to think about how much time you give to

us through like all those years and what were the major I guess pivots or changes that happened because you're one of those rare people that really have been there since the beginning like since so like this was when content creator and influencer weren't a word you know they weren't words that we used all these things are so so common now but you you were you went through all of it and I noticed like the shifts you made in your career so take us through that oh my goodness yeah it was a huge challenge especially in Switzerland to establish that word at the beginning the way that we were introducing ourselves to Brands was like we are digital journalists we create editorial photography but we share it online and it's a way to reach a younger demographic um so I remember honestly like leaving certain meetings and crying because you know Brands really didn't understand it and obviously we had to eventually think about you know earning a revenue like what I told my parents that I I wanted to pursue this as a career path instead of going to University my dad was like okay you're gonna make a business plan because if within a year like you can't show us proof of it being you know um sustainable then what's the point um so I always had this pressure at the back of my mind that you know I would need to generate an income and also because obviously like I wasn't alone I was working with my partner and we also wanted to hire people so there was always this interesting dance between business and the creative aspect which I'm much better at the creative part of of all of this so I guess we were stimulated in a way by this pressure like it was good because it forced us really to get out of our comfort zone and to really believe in ourselves and to really to really develop a narrative that was straight to the point and to really understand what we were bringing to the table and our assets and the value that we were bringing to the brands in terms of storytelling and art Direction and just overall creative approach So eventually you know our efforts really did pay off and at the beginning we did a lot of things you know without earning anything just because we were so deeply passionate and um eventually we took the decision to move to LA because it was obviously like business-wise much more interesting people in America are much more open-minded about those things compared to Switzerland so we moved in La I wasn't even 21 actually when I moved to my first apartment in LA and I just remember just like feeling this huge difference in culture and how everyone was open and welcoming and I mean not to bash on Switzerland I love Switzerland and that's where I live now and there are so many amazing qualities but just in terms of like Innovation and forward moving like it's it's uncomparable um so when I moved to LA I signed with a talent agency and things started moving really really fast I got a really big deal as a brand ambassador with L'Oreal um released a book uh just did so many amazing things did a speech at Oxford was doing every single Fashion Week traveling with a lot of like amazing Brands basically like things were really rolling and it happened honestly pretty fast so it was great but at the same time it's like we were so young and none of us went to business school so it was quite difficult honestly to handle the the business aspect of it um alongside all of our creative ideas and everything that we wanted to continue doing creatively so we definitely had a lot of internal challenging challenges between just us as human beings and how we wanted to proceed like I remember my my partner and I had a lot of like conflicts around that obviously because we were a couple and then we became business partners and then you know we broke up and we remained business partners and there were a lot of like human personal dynamics that we managed to respect like everyone's privacy and not you know share all that was going on in the background but there was a lot and you know we were babies like we were very very young so it was a lot to manage and juggle but I think we did a really good job like it was um it was a really really powerful learning experience on every single level possible and then eventually after La I kind of figured out that I really missed Europe and I missed the European charm um and I was also simultaneously working with a lot of music producers in LA and I decided that just creatively it would make much more sense for me to relocate to um Europe maybe pick a city like a big city where I could have the same creative opportunities as in LA but also have kind of like this European Touch and so uh we move all of us the whole cage your team the whole K team uh we moved to uh Paris and I signed with a record label there and I started to really really focus my kind of like my whole creative Direction on music and on expanding kind of like my creative offerings to much more than just and I'm saying just but it's already a lot like blogging is a lot like it's a full-time thing but I wanted to offer a more in-depth experience of who I am and of just my writing because I think that once again like reading an article is beautiful but experiencing a story through music and sound and visuals and fashion and all of it together is really cool and that's really what I wanted so yeah I lived in Paris for the last five years and just recently moved back to Switzerland so it's really beautiful because it feels like coming back full circle and um I'm beginning what was your reason for going back to Switzerland I was about to say I'm beginning kind of like a new chapter in my life you know I feel like I had to kind of like close this giant cycle of like those years that I just shared with you everything that happened and symbolically coming back to Switzerland is a way to like honor everything and also revisiting my roots and why I started all of this like what is my why and why do I keep doing this and why do I want to keep doing this because living in big cities like LA or Paris it can be very overwhelming with a lot of distractions a lot of stimuli a lot of information a lot of people a lot of just everything and I was starting to feel like this deep calling to just RECenter and go deeper and go inward um also for the benefit of my content creation for the benefit of the quality of my music so that it comes from a genuine place of bringing value to people you know because for me music is medicine art is medicine and for me to be like a clear vessel of art or div because for me art is divine you know so for me to be a clear vessel of the Divine like I need to be in uh in a healthy state in a healthy mental state in a healthy energetical state for my art to um bring positive energy to people because that is so deeply needed and I feel like that is why people really resonated with my message from the beginning is because the writing the Articles the photography it was not just about me yes it was me kind of like the um the face or the character of the stories that we were sharing with the world but there was a deeper meaning to all of this which is you can start from absolute scratch and make anything come true like you can achieve your wildest dreams even the ones that seem so crazy and impossible you can go against the grain and you can make it happen and I feel like now being back here being going back to the roots is is mean kind of like reconnecting with that part of me again wow I love your story thank you for sharing in that detail but like what I love about you is like you're so genuine as an artist and I consider myself like a creative and an artist so like I recognize like how like what you do and how you care about being pure with your art and it guides everything else like you're not just like a pretty face or some fashionable girl you're like so much deeper and I love that I guess the next thing I do want to ask you is like you said you were going back to Switzerland to ReDiscover your why so like do you what is your why and what is the thread that kind of connects everything that you do and guides you I feel like humanity is going through a massive Collective shift of beliefs right now especially right now especially in the last three years and we need to use art as medicine to teach people about their Essence and who they truly are and the power of their energy and I think this is how art has always been used you know it's always been used to transform pain or suffering or our stories into Beauty into inspiration into fuel for new and I know that this is why I'm doing this and I'm really grateful because in those last three years I've really reconnected with my spirituality and my relationship with the Earth and with nature which was honestly which I've kind of like forgotten for a while while I was traveling and you know the the fashion industry is so fast-paced it's all about like hustle culture and performance and all of that stuff which is honestly amazing and super fun as well but it can be very draining I was burning myself out constantly my mental state was not great um my Human Relationships were also suffering quite a lot although on the exterior everything looked so glamorous and glossy and I experienced the same thing in the music industry because essentially like my love for music is also because I think it's so correlated with spirit and with kind of like our experiences beyond the surface of things and when I started working in in music I I realized that this industry is also quite toxic you know it can be very rock and roll like people drink a lot take drugs like it's not a very healthy holistic environment to be totally honest I mean I guess from my experience and my why is to bring awareness and well-being and Purity for the lack of a better word in those environments um yeah I guess that would be it yeah I I appreciate that because it is true like the industries of fashion and music are seen as so superficial and fast and like it's it's not pure right so someone who's an artist trying to bring Purity I I appreciate that yeah another thing that I really love about you is like you don't like to be put in a box so tell us more about this approach and this philosophy to life because I you know at lavender we talk about being an artist of Life creating your dream life and it means like you can be whoever you want to be you can create your life any way that you desire and you're doing exactly that so how did you I guess get this philosophy and this approach to life and tell us more about it I love that I love that yes your life is your greatest piece of art I think that is such a beautiful message beautiful words to live by day by day because when you live this way even your hardest moments are beautiful you know I always think of like people going to the movies to watch you know really intense really intense movies where people are going through heart breaks and just the the most terrible like experience as possible but there is a like a human beauty in all of that like it's not just to create like all of this terrible experience for Humanity like I think that there's a purpose to all of this you know it's to forge us into diamonds you know diamonds are born from pressure and I think for me like it's just trusting my intuition as well and being connected to that inner knowing that there is something greater it works and kind of like dancing with the unknown which can be so scary at times I love that I just feel the how connected you are to like your spirituality so why don't you take us along that Journey were you always this way or what's the story oh my God how deep can we go just let it flow oh my God okay well first of all I I don't know if you're into astrology but I'm like I am totally you are astrology very deep yeah it's a whole science you guys by the way like it's it's fascinating um I'm not an expert but I have a lot of Scorpio in my chart and oh I see I love going in the depths like okay deeper you know when I was a kid I was always very much connected with Spirit um and spirit comes from Latin spirare which means to breathe breathing inspiration the uh the power to be kind of like uh um I would say like bathed in the energy of the Divine and letting this information flow through you unobstructed so when I was a kid I was able to do it very easily effortlessly I didn't allow Kai like my my intellect or my mind kind of like interfere with the subtle information that I was experiencing around me like when I would go in the forest I would talk to like fairies or I would really let my imagination run wild and I would never judge it and then um growing up I kind of closed off my channel you know I I feel like especially as a kid if you have certain spiritual experiences and you see certain things or you hear certain things you know be looked at as crazy or weird or something's wrong maybe we should see a doctor maybe we should bring her kid to a psychiatrist like something's off you know and so I completely shut it off and um it's only recently that I reconnected with my psychic abilities and my spirituality and it happened in a very serendipitous way although it wasn't pretty because you know when we talk about spirituality we imagine like crystals and astrology and like smoothie bowls and things like that like in feathers and hats and things like this but um for me it was like The Dark Night of the Soul like I had a very strong experience in 2019 end of 2019 I was going through a lot of turmoil in my professional and personal life and I started meditating I had never meditated before I had never even truly allowed myself to rest ever since I started my blog because I was really in this like go go type of mindset all about performance All About Numbers which once again like there's nothing wrong with that I think that you need to go through those phases and it was you know it it was good like I think this is why also we got to that level um but it was also sometimes at the detriment of my mental health for sure so I started meditating and it was almost like opening a closet that was filled with stuff that I was just like sweeping under the carpet and denying or ignoring things connected to you know my family or once again my intuition that I wasn't always listening to and it just flooded me with information and I kind of like allowed myself for the first time to really feel it like to not run away from the level of intensity and emotion that I was going through because I'm really good at keeping a very straight Poker Face I'm like Queen at that when underneath there's like uh like a storm so I I let the storm happen basically and I think for the first time in many years my nervous system kind of like relaxed and was like okay you're ready now and blasted me with what I would call spiritual information just things that I always knew about the universe or energy but never really like investigated it more more than that you know I always knew that energy was all there is but the way that I experienced it viscerally in my body is like this electricity that was just shattering all of my limiting beliefs was so powerful and I really felt like I was one with God the universe the Divine whatever you want to call it because I know that this is such a like loaded word for some people but I also realized all the pain that I had connected to that word you know and I had so many questions and a lot of anger was coming up like but if there's a God why is there so much suffering in the world and you know all of that stuff um which I think all of these questions are fair but um I think our way of approaching Divinity is like we try to personify it like a human being but for me it's like this infinite ocean of Consciousness which can express itself in so many different forms and in this ocean of Consciousness everything can exist as a probability as a possibility of creative expression and anger is one suffering is one pain is one like if you are infinite Consciousness wouldn't you want to eventually in your Infinity explore what that would be like you know so it's it's very tricky it's very subtle um being here is not easy I think being human is um very intense especially nowadays I mean it probably has always been we're very privileged nowadays we have a lot of like access to you know just the internet is like so such an incredible tool um so yeah I think this is sort of like what happened to me and what opened this spiritual doorway Within within me and why I'm so passionate about talking about this topic yeah that's amazing that's like a like it's it's such a big Awakening moment for you like 2019 so what how did you change your approach to life or your mindset after that experience after like now what you have kind of remembered it seems like and you've already like known these things like in past lives you're probably already like connected to spirituality it's just like you're just remembering now right so how are you different now thank you for saying that it's so true and I think that it's true for everyone I think that deep within on a subconscious level we all know that and then there are layers of experiences and Trauma that we've all collectively went through not only us but also our families our grandparents like there are so many layers and I think in our genetic code like we carry the story of our families and this is my personal belief but also think that we also carry the stories of all of our past lives or simultaneous lives because at a certain dimensional level time space doesn't really exist and it's all occurring simultaneously so it's a very complex and and fascinating you know world and I think that we audit to ourselves to get to know ourselves you know like we finally have access to resources books podcasts videos workshops Retreats like you can educate yourself my parents grew up in the Soviet Union where so many books were forbidden like now you can literally go on Amazon and buy a Joe dispenza book and understand how your brain works and the importance of creating heart brain coherence you can buy a channeled work from The Pleiadians like there is so much information it's just a matter of like first of all sitting with yourself and freely just truly listening to yourself without judging without criticizing without being like Oh I'm just telling myself stories well guess what like this whole world is built on stories like your computer was someone's story you know and someone's like what you want to build a computer you want to build an airplane that's ridiculous that's just your imagination Playing Tricks on you you know or everything is a story and our imagination is so powerful our imagination is the source of I don't know the chair that you're sitting on right now so every single thing every single thing and then there's also the power of nature and the and the wisdom that nature has inherently in itself and just sitting in a forest and letting nature be your teacher and just observing the way it works and just the fractal geometry that you can see in like a little leaf or flower it's everywhere this knowledge is everywhere everywhere and it does not contradict science I love you know um again people like Robert Edward Graham who kind of like makes correlations between spirituality and physics and Science and explains in a very clear way how they don't need to cancel each other out guys you know like now is an era of unity and coming together and um creating bonds and links and bridges for people to have access to knowledge that has been suppressed for so long so yeah for me like no matter which field of work you're in I think it's your it's our duty collectively to do this work because that is the only way for us to you know create a sustainable future and I think it gives like meaning to why the world's going through everything is going through right it's like we have forgotten all of these things that we're we feel like it's us against them like it's like we're detached where you don't remember that we're all the same and I think people being detached I mean spirituality I see more and more people becoming more conscious and aware of it and learning about it which is really exciting but at the same time like the world is so far from from where it could be right if everyone was more aware and conscious so I guess what would you want to say to the people listening who are I think most people are kind of in the middle everyone is aware of spirituality and I think like you said everyone deep down knows it but what would you say to those people who are still struggling to like believe yeah I would say that you matter your voice matters you think you're not important but actually we're all in sponsors you know it's not because you don't have like a million followers on Instagram that you're not influencing your community your family your friends you know I've noticed that um at the beginning I was really like scared to talk about this I had like two or three friends that I could really open up about those topics and really go for it with my most crazy Vuvu stories and I noticed that the more I gave myself the permission slip to be cringe or ridiculous or sound Vuvu and just like share I would have people in front of me be like oh my God this is really funny that you say that because actually I also experienced something of this nature and I never talked about it so I think that it's important that people realize how much they matter and how much their stories matter and how much everything that you go through you sharing your gifts you sharing your experiences can freely allow others to feel safer to open up as well yeah that's so true it's like you think that you're the only one going through these things or the only one who thinks this way but other people just they have a similar story or they also believe the same way but they don't talk about it because it's just not normal but the more we talk about it the more we normalize it and that's how we progress and evolve I've seen that across like so many different topics that used to be so weird and so out there but now everyone's like accepted it because everyone just starts sharing like something like astrology or like even meditation back then was weird right people were like oh who meditates but now everyone everyone is aware of it yeah I think that there's a lot of good to it you know a lot of people complain about like the trend that spirituality is because it is a trend um there are a lot of spiritual influencers a lot of online courses I think you need to have a healthy level of discernment a healthy level of skepticism I think it's important to ask questions because there's a lot out there like you really need to know how to navigate you know but I think it's good because it allows people to feel less intimidated by it for so long you know we considered spirituality to be either religion or becoming a Buddhist monk and isolating yourself on top of a mountain or becoming Mother Teresa and you know getting rid of all of your belongings and that was the only way to be a spiritual being in people's mind you know I think that now we are creating a more modern relationship with spirituality as energy energy is everywhere energy is everything energy doesn't recognize you know skin color or religion or how cool your house is like energy is energy and we all have access to it and um it's not that simple but it's easy like it's something that we can all learn to understand and to work with you don't need to buy a hundred million books to learn energy work like you can just once again go into nature and connect with the River or the tree and just work with your own body your own breath like you can experience a psychedelic experience just by playing with your breath or you know doing mindful body work like you are the portal it's not outside of you and I think this is something that people really need to understand spirituality is not someone telling you what it is it's you experiencing it and it's you figuring what it is for you and what your relationship is with what your relationship is with the invisible you know it's a very personal and unique path um you can have people guide you through this path um but you're the one walking it I love that you do have a way with words I I love just like hearing you speak and I you mentioned how you love writing so why don't you tell us about your new book through the veils of mystery like how did you get the idea to write this book so this book is about the the experience that I've had in 2019 the spiritual awakening that I had and I really go into details and I really wanted to be once again like a permission slip for people to feel validated in certain psychic experiences that they might have been through that they don't they're talking about for me it was a very Vivid and visceral experience where I felt like once again blasted open I felt like my psychic channel was blasted open and I had an experience with light beings which again I know it sounds very out there and I completely respect people being like what that's totally fair like I just generally just shared like what I went through and how I experienced it and I don't care whether it was my imagination or not because I've had so many confirmations after a while afterwards of meeting people who've had the exact same experience as me that you can't make this what was the experience like can you tell us a little bit about it as I said I was going through a very intense turmoil um a lot of things in my life were honestly crumbling like I was losing people that I really cared about like some some relationships that I really cared for were just not working out um business-wise I was also very confused like there were a lot of things that just made me feel like I was in the pit of a black hole and funny enough I always had a fear of black holes like I couldn't even see a photo of a black hole because it would scare the [ __ ] out of me and that's what I felt like I felt like I was in just this infinite darkness and I think that also the art that I was creating at the time is very reflective of that like if you look at my EP and the music I was making at the time it's very much reflective of that darkness that I was experiencing and so during meditation um I started just saying that I have nothing to lose because I felt like I had lost so much and I also felt like I couldn't complain that I should always be grateful because I'm so privileged and I'm so blessed so my nervous system was really struggling because a part of me was like but I feel like [ __ ] but I feel like I can't say that I feel like [ __ ] because I'm so privileged so I would my brain was like there was this really intense friction and I just felt so exhausted so sad so overwhelmed and um I just felt like there was this huge block in my body and so I remember sleeping for several nights on the floor of my living room and on the fifth day I was again meditating and saying this Mantra that I have nothing to lose and something clicked where my nervous system just kind of like relaxed and this friction between the oh but I can't complain because look at where I am and look at everything I have it just kind of like dissipated into a you're allowed to feel actually like you're allowed to feel okay like it was very abrupt like it was very Fierce like a very Fierce energy and I was like whoa okay and I kind of like allowed myself this intensity like just a vessel just like a an instrument and that's when I felt like this huge surge of electric energy just blasting me from the bottom of my spine to the top of my head and I felt like certain areas of my body were just like energetically being unclogged at least that's how I like sensed it and I started moving in a very weird way like I don't know I just felt like something was happening but I couldn't put words to it and and I felt like the deepest sense of surrender I've felt in a very long time and when that happened I started to see with my eyes closed like colors and just colors you know almost like little clouds of colors and at a certain point I was so scared like I was scared that I might be going crazy um I was scared that I might be hearing voices and that there might be something wrong with like there I was filled with judgment filled with judgment and also skepticism because again skepticism is healthy but in that situation it was really like creating a an enormous amount of tension and I saw sort of like a circle of light um around me I didn't see it physically but I I saw it through I would say my third eye at the time it just felt like I could sense it but if I had my eyes open I couldn't obviously see like a clear blue circle around me but I saw energetically I sensed energetically that there was a circle of blue light around me and sort of like these long elongated like blue themes of light and I felt like I was surrounded by a certain very high level energy and because my nervous system was in the state of surrender I heard you can let go we are here to help you and I saw these light beings clearly work on my um energy channels and it was really crazy it was um I I don't know how to describe it with words uh I was crying moving I felt like if someone saw me right now like I would go to the Asylum how long was that like experience that experience lasted the whole evening and night like I barely slept that night um because I started receiving information about my childhood about my family about my life and what I'm meant to do and I had to write everything down so I have like those notebooks that are filled with everything that I wrote that night and they were like we're always here with you and you already know us and yeah and it's the craziest thing about that is that following that experience I had the longest period of integration like after that I had I felt like I had to relearn how to function in society because I felt like my psychic channel was opened and I really had to learn how to use it um because it's not just like oh I'm so spiritual I have psychic abilities like you need to learn how to use it because otherwise you don't even know where you end and another person begins like it's it's all very um subtle and I met people that also met blue beings that described them in the exact same way also saying that they received downloads of like almost like mathematical information so and stuff that I honestly I couldn't have come up with like usually when I get into creative mood like it's more like poetry or drawings or photography ideas it's not really like mathematical equations about the universe you know so it was really and also I wasn't actively pursuing to become spiritual like I it was not my intention I already had music and I was really happy with pursuing a career as a musician and I was not at all looking to acquire that sense of spiritual knowledge or whatever so yeah I I think uh for me even just sharing this it feels uncomfortable because obviously like I can sense that people watching this would be like um you know but fair enough fair enough I just think that it's important that people realize that there is something beyond the visible reality and I think even animals can sense that like my cat sometimes stares at things that like I don't know what he's staring at you know there is so much I bet your dog is the same you know animals are very sensitive and I just want us to yeah give ourselves again like this permission slip that hey like maybe it's not that crazy maybe it's crazy to ignore how we truly feel or to ignore that we are interconnected with dimensional realities that we can't even perceive yeah first of all that's so fascinating like thank you for sharing because I know that it takes courage to share like in the way that you have so I really appreciate it I I love to be open-minded so like I've heard all sorts of crazy things I believe not that I believe everything but like I accept everything that people tell me because I'm just like anything is possible like I'm not gonna refute what you said because I like I can like I'm I'm intuitive in a way where like if I hear someone speak I can tell if they're being authentic or not and like that yeah with you you're com I can tell you're being authentic and it's yeah so I I do appreciate that because it's like basically there's so much beyond what we see and what we believe now and I think it might be weird now but maybe 10 years later it's normal because everybody knows about it now right it's I've seen so many things evolve that I don't know I I do appreciate you sharing especially when you know there's going to be judgment yeah but I think it's it's okay like I don't judge the Judgment I accept the Judgment even in myself I also have moments where I judge and I've learned to just integrated and accept it and that is why you know my book is called through the veils of mystery like it's all about lifting the veils of Illusion because energy is invisible you know you can't see it but you can feel it and this book is all about reconnecting with the power of feeling and I feel like I have an expertise in that because I've numbed myself out for so many years to the benefit of my career so it's a very tricky position to be in because I can attest that it works but to the detriment of my mental health and that's where the dance gets very subtle and that's where we all collectively have some questions to ask ourselves in terms of what kind of society are we all collectively building where people need to run on empty and exhaust themselves to be high performance Achievers successful people you know yeah it goes deep yeah I I also appreciate that topic because I'm always dancing between what's balanced versus what's like you wanting to work hard and succeed versus like giving yourself what you need and not caring about the external success and the external numbers what is your approach now to well-being like how do you find that sense of balance well I just want to reflect on what you just said because I think it's very important um I think right now collectively we're going through like a recalibration of our feminine and masculine polarities and I think the feminine is all about magnetizing it's more of a surrender energy where we learn to receive we learn to slow down and go in and it can feel very dangerous to be in that energy because it's the unknown and for me the feminine is the dark womb of nothing it's the void energy and we're all scared of the Void like I said before I was so scared of that black hole energy but for me it's kind of like the this womb this womb field of infinite possibilities infinite probabilities I think connecting with our effeminine which we all have is allowing ourselves to really feel into what do we truly want instead of letting Society or family or friends um dictate what we should be doing so just to have this space to really hear ourselves is key and then it's the marriage with the masculine which is all about actually acting and doing things because you can't just be in the feminine and like slow and flowy and oh I'm just letting things come to me you know you need to learn how to step in at a certain point and act on your Inspirations put things into you know concrete tangible form and I think all of us even you know people who identify themselves as women or whatever like I feel like all of us are very comfortable with masculine energy I think even most women are operating from their masculine energy I can speak for myself like I've operated for I think over eight years in my masculine although I look very feminine and I love all the Glam but that's not the Glam is not just that like feminine is not just the Glam it's not just the fashion feminine is trust in again the unknown and I think that the masculine is very reassuring in the sense of like okay I have the numbers to prove that my business is working okay like structurally my business plan is very good like you know it's those like logical like kind of like left brain proofs um that are very straight to the point and we need both and it's a very very nuanced relationship that we all have within us um where sometimes one takes over the other one and I think that we always need to monitor those Dynamics within ourselves but it's kind of like the inhale and the exhale you know it's It comes naturally it's meant to come naturally and it's uh it's a love story that we all have within ourselves so I think collectively we all need to like marry and make peace with those polarities instead of like having them be constantly at war with one another and I also want to note that if you have been operating in your masculine for like a long period of time and I can relate to that too sometimes you're just in a go go energy especially as you're building like a new business or something I think you have to accept and acknowledge that it takes like you have to like sink back into your feminine for a longer period of time as well but eventually you do find a sense of balance where you can dance between the two because like you have to balance like if you were too long in one you're gonna have to spend like a long time in another right have you experienced that personally yeah well I think throughout my entire career as a content creator I have been in my masculine at the beginning my style was very feminine and then towards I would say like when I started my music career I even started dressing in a more masculine way like wearing like Blazers with super big shoulder pads and I think at that point you can really tell that I'm like super like masculine in my energy and I think that this is also why this spiritual awakening was so crucial to my health is because I couldn't have kept going that way for for longer you know also in terms of the relationships that I was magnetizing in my life I just really felt unsupported um I always felt like I was the one that had to do everything even the guys that I was dating like I never felt supported or held or you know I never felt the strong arm of the masculine you know because I was the one embodying that energy so I I guess after my uh spiritual experience my Spiritual Awakening or whatever we want to call it I went kind of like I swing towards like The Other Extreme of the polarity where all I wanted to do was just like really allow myself the time to process the time to digest the time to feel the time to think the time to contemplate and of course I saw my business being affected by it for sure for sure I had a lot of people ask me like oh like what's up with you like why aren't you going to fashion shows anymore why aren't you doing this anymore why aren't you doing that anymore and I was taking it personally I was like guys I've been working since I'm 16. can't you see how like this is also like a beautiful face because I always have this like people pleaser thing of like really wanting my community to like be happy I don't know it's really strange so receiving feedback of like oh you're not doing enough like we want you to post more outfits we want you to like release new music like I was like oh my God I'm not enough I'm not doing enough but I feel like this is what my body really really needs so how do I balance this and I'm still in the process of like this is currently what I'm learning like this is currently my initiation so I'll tell you when I figure it out if I ever figure it out but I just one thing I want to add and I think it's very important is our society is structured in a way to support women being more masculine because just the work field like is not meant to even honor the Cycles you know it's like oh this isn't your blooming phase oh we don't care it's time for you to bloom now like every month you know like you cannot have a winter time of your life you cannot have like a season of regeneration because there's always something happening and if you skip a season you're out it's just the the reality of this world especially of fashion industry if you don't attend certain fashion shows for a season you're not going to be invited the next one so it's uh very tricky and the the really weird Paradox of all of this is that everyone is exhausted but people keep going because it is fun it is fun it's really really um inspiring and beautiful and glamorous also of course business-wise it's very interesting but to what point you know yeah to your own detriment of your well well-being right yeah I yeah as a content creator I experience this too is like I there are times in my life where I had to slow down I had to do less and I had to just like do nothing for myself to heal like to go back into the feminine and then you do start to see like the your success and your business go down and it's really scary because you've been operating from like that Society productivity you must always be on always must be like growing grown growing and so I I can relate to what you're talking about like it's not easy to go through that to like see what you've built start to like Trend downwards but it's also like I think it's freeing and it's a lesson to be learned to like separate yourself from that like separate yourself from trying to please your audience separate yourself from trying to like grow all the time because you as a human being as a soul you're you're not meant to just be masculine productive growing growing growing that's it's just not practical it's not feasible like you need the balance of the seasons of your life you have to honor the yin and the Yang you have to honor times where you have energy times where you don't have energy so I think that's a lesson everyone is learning and everyone can learn in their lives because we all go through that like Society teaches us to be like always producing always doing something but yeah we're learning that that's not how it should be we have to balance the masculine and feminine totally and how are you doing it though because I'm curious to know like how are you experiencing that balancing do you allow yourself to slow down or do you feel guilty when you do of course there's guilt especially in the beginning and then there was a I think with each because I go through Cycles I go through cycles of like oh no like I'm I have energy to work I'm inspired let's work hard let's do this and then I get overwhelmed and then I'm like oh my God I have to like slow down I have to you know so I I go through these cycles and then the more I go through them the more I honor the the seasons and the phases and I don't allow myself to feel guilty and now I'm at a point where like if you're on social media you can get stuck in that like it feels good to post and get that positive feedback right and it's it becomes a little addicting but I think now I've gotten to a point where I've like detached from it like I my identity is not who I am online like I could look like a failure online and I'm still okay because I'm happy in my daily life like I'm journaling I'm meditating I'm playing with my dog right like you have to find Value in you you your real version of yourself in the present moment and be able to let go of like whatever you're holding on to like in your identity or in your career um be like I said like you have to be okay with not looking like like just all that external stuff right you can look a certain way to someone else but you can feel completely different in your daily life and I think what matters most is how you feel so I'm I'm not perfect but I'm I'm learning like I have noticed I've gotten better with that yeah yeah I love that you know it's funny in the book one of the poems is um about perfection and it's about how our struggles our mistakes are actually perfect so in that sense we we are perfect not just as a result but but as an instrument through which a song or story can come through so in that sense you are absolutely perfect and it's very tricky and I really resonate with what you just said and thank you so much for sharing about the whole like people pleasing validation part of it because as you said it is very addictive um to get sort of like this instant gratification of like oh my God like you're doing good it's kind of like a pat on the back you know like you you got this like you're not a total failure in life um and I feel like the more we receive it The More We crave it again it's like a drug yep and so to get out of that Loop of like finding your own source of inner validation and living your life from the inward out instead of from the outward in is much more sustainable much more healthy um but again like it's a lot of unlearning and I think that we can understand it theoretically or intellectually but then to teach it to our bodies because you know when you're addicted to a drug or to like a food whether it's sugar or coffee or whatever it is to stop the Habit is very difficult the body goes through purging where you literally need a hit and I think I mean for me for my own experience I I know it like my mind knows it and understands it and it makes total sense but then my body's like oh my God but I need it you know I know exactly what you mean yeah so that's where like mindful practices meditation breath work going to Nature switching your phone off and even sitting with that feeling of that voice I call it like the Hungry Ghost that's like fill me up fill me up you know it's kind of like this energy and you're just sitting with it and you're like I see you you don't need anything you already have everything within I got you I'm here with you you're beautiful like whatever it is like these might sound like generic words but to each you know their personal like inner narrative I think it's super important to be as honest as possible with ourselves when we do inner work but it's a tricky one this this here the whole validation I mean it's a whole industry oh yeah oh my God so many Industries as well but I yeah I appreciate us bringing it up because it's a huge topic and I think everyone can relate to that um and I also love what you said is like we have to learn how to live from the inward outward instead of the other way around because so many people go from the outside in um okay I I wish I could speak I feel like we can continue this conversation for like hours and hours but I work we need to wrap up so do you have what what is one message that you want to leave the audience with today I just want to repeat that you matter I know it sounds cheesy but I really mean it I really mean it like no matter who you are listening to this like you really matter like your voice and why you're here really really matters thank you so much thank you finally where can our listeners find you online well my Instagram it's at Christina bazan with a k um you can also check out my website it's called Kaza bazan k-a-z-a-b-a-z-a-n.com and my book through the veils of mystery is available on Amazon and on shopcatalog.com amazing thank you so much Christina you are such an amazing beautiful soul thank you for being here thank you so much for inviting me and you too likewise sending so much love thank you thank you [Music] thank you

WHY I TIPPED IT
[Music] it just goes to show a couple of brew days back-to-back does to a man got on last night what time would we say sevenish I think here well not I got on before 7:00 but about seven ish I took myself off upstairs laid on the bed clonk out till half 7:00 this morning barmy just gone so the vlog for today is not up yet so I'm gonna drop Gemma off at work and I'm gonna come back home edit the vlog and then we'll shoot back down to work and tinker with the kit and whatever else the day has in store for us it's bloody beautiful italia now I'm not really one for football but I think I want to sit down and watch the England match tonight with Dominic because he's getting into it so it's good for him I think / info we're in the unit as is to be expected and because we've now done one two three four brews on the kids I thought it'd be a good chance to take all the pieces all the components out of the kit inspect them see how they veld up give them a clean of course people myself for things such as the ball valves leave a vowel soak them in the in a bit of peracetic acid remove all the gaskets all that kind of jazz basic maintenance that you really should be doing once a week anyway I know a lot of broads do it once a month or once a quarter not me once a week if I can squeeze it in and serve things on the hot side aren't that are not important for instance on the boil kettle if you can't get your valves off every week it's not going to matter too much but you really should be inspecting them as often as possible but further downstream where the fermenters are literally you have to take those two pieces between every batch because otherwise you will get found out so we've got all the stuff soaking down here so you can see I've taken all of the o-rings out of the connectors on the silicone holes put all the stainless steel fittings and whatnot in there and then on this side I've removed most of the fittings off the boil kettle I'm just about to pull the elements out they look clean but I can pull them out easy enough so we'll do that now and just give them a quick inspection and I'll do the same for the thermo probe soffit and the float level indicator socket just to make sure everything is functioning as it should [Music] so I pulled the as I pull the elements out they're imperfect Nick they look great the only buyer issue that I have is there's a little bit of a surface film on the bottom of the element where I can't spray it from the top and obviously the spray ball as it's cascading down the tank isn't gonna be able to spray pop on the bottom of the element but it's literally nothing it's not burnt on it's not cruddy I'm just gonna basically get scouring some water wipe it off job done nothing to worry about I'm dead pleased there's no crap in the sockets or anything like that they look really nice and clean so another positive well I've just taken the float level indicator out and this is the tenth probe and as you can see on there we are clean as a whistle that's bloody lovely bloody lovely so we'll pop him back in the CIP is doing its job for this kind of thing and of course why not clean the elements down I've done it what they're up here I thought they rested there was literally nothing on white with a sponge gone I reckon if I to run the CIP another two minutes longer it would have all been gone so it's looking really good I'm a lucky boy again folks people are treating me more than perhaps I deserve I don't know so you've seen from here we've got two different packages just arrived today these three home brewers came first and there from RJ Bruin the comfortable chats then I'll begin says great for keeping me entertained with your shenanigans in the brewery bills has been good to watch you won't given me lots of ideas how to build my new brewery a one barrel system in my garage and that's plenty of tank for me and about as much electricity as I can pull without free faith board anyway in the box as you can see is three bottles of my version of the sharpie a called Solero one is a spare and the other one is for Tom if you get to see him soon so don't get to Thursday Tom and froggy adhere to Saturday so we'll be having these on camera for you made I entered this into a homebrew Kong that's one mile that one mile and Rory was hosting and he came third out of 68 I hope it's traveled well in this heat and still tastes as fresh as it was out of my keg the beers 5.5 41 IBUs galaxy azúcar mosaic london a least three well thanks a lot Reina will be enjoying their mark I said on the weekend and then I've been sent to kaleidoscope India Pale Ale and a pooper I think pooper pupae juicy Pale Ale both from vibrant forest we've actually added the kaleidoscope on keg in the bruschetta it's fantastic now this is come from a good buddy of mine called Sandra she sent it across here are two of my favorite beers from my local brewery vibrant forest run by Kevin Robinson down south in Limington new forest Cheers Sam thank you very much Sandra I will be enjoying these on my own [Music] so we've got these tables put together lid needs to go on that one I've got another one as well and these it's on the bench I've lost the gallows brackets so I'm gonna have to fab some all I think but first I want to nip home and make sure I've got some beer in the fridge for a football and then we'll pick the kids up [Music] so I'm home early again today not too early though Sony just gone there half past four so I've decided because footballs aren't I don't normally bother but it's the World Cup let's get in the on the bandwagon I fell off the [ __ ] wagon a few times so I want to try this pupa that Sandra sent me it looks really nice it's 4.5% so we're gonna get it in the glass oh my gosh hopefully I'm not too washed out on the the backlit window here I've just tried it just in the ISL settings on the camera so should look all right oh I could smell it from here vibrant forests are an excellent brewery we've upped their kaleidoscope on care got the Bruce yet before and I must say it went down a little storm I can see bits of yeast maybe some hot particles floating around in there very New England IPA style New England session IPA says a juicy Pale Ale I wonder if we've got the hops in here I think I did see them somewhere I'm sure I saw them somewhere but I can't quite see them now so we'll just get the straight in oh that is fun dobby Dawsey pet so i'm talking of excellent beer before i go and tune out for the day we will be back tomorrow of slight hangover I'm sure but before I go I just want a discourse or briefly talk to upon the fact as to why I'm not trying to rescue this beer how there's been quite a lot of conversation in the comments below leave one if you think you can add to the conversation a little bit but a lot of people are saying why not try and rescue the beer brew up another batch that's got very low or no IBU content blend them all these these remedies hardly knock tells for instance all these remedies that would work in theory and they would work if it was a home brewed batch for instance the reason I'm not going down that road is because this is of course a commercial brewery as we all know I've put a lot of time and effort and money into getting it up and running and of course people already know what my beers are like because of all the awards that I won with the idol Valley brand people understand what to expect and if I start cutting corners like trying to salvage a batch of beer just to get it on the bar you very quickly get found out it's not something I'd do commercially anyway I've been known to Jewish recipes up to improve them but I've never tried to rescue a bad batch and sell it I'd much rather just tip it and start again your reputation is worth far more than a few kilograms of hops a few sacks of malt and a day's work because it'd take a heck of a lot more time and money to build it back up if you get found out taking these shortcuts and it feels like cheating to me if you do something like that and whilst I will do it if it was homebrew someone want to tip it and I do hate waste and if I had space I might age it or sell it as a from line because the beers not off it just still bitter for me so if we're tax base for instance or we're cask space I could stick it in a cask and put it in the corner of the cold room leave it there for six weeks and come back to it it might be great but we only stand with three fermenters we don't have any casks yet it's more important for me to get the best I can out of those fermenters if I want to be tying up that fermenting space which is why I've decided to open the valve let it go on the floor so yeah that's batch number one down the drain sort of anticipated it you always get these wrinkles in the road before you take on anything big like this just pick yourself up carry on I'm really not that so beat up about it if I'm honest I'm really not that be up about it the only thing that I think I've let myself down on is something that hava dog brewery pulled me up on in the comments recently as well and that is all this steam coming out of the chimney and I've not once said Chooch it well we shall remedy that when Tom and froggy come over on Saturday as we brew the coconut shy PA for the first time on Harrison's brewery care now I'm sure it'll be on froggies channel and I'm sure it'll be on Tom's channel it'll definitely be on my channel and that's one you really don't want to miss out on we'll see you tomorrow for the build up choo choo [Music]

4 takeaways from the new SCS study
hey everybody my name is Kim Seaver welcome back to my channel I just wanted to give you a heads up that today's video is gonna be longer than most but I think the information I'm gonna provide is important and needs to be shared so I appreciate you being patient with me and I hope you find the information I share with you valuable last week dr. MPL a researcher at the University of Lethbridge presented a city council the urban social issues study a study into the impacts the left would supervise consumption site has had on the local neighborhood dr. peels research in general focuses on homeless substance using and at-risk populations social disorder in communities health services for marginalized patient populations and harm reduction services this is important to note as I've seen harm reduction advocates try to discredit the research she did for this study mostly as a reaction to the mini coverage of the study and not as a reaction to the study itself the study blew up on social media with traditional media framing it as crime and so-called social disorder being on the rise since the SDS open Jason Kenney likewise last onto that narrative which boosted it among his followers many of which opposed the SES specifically and harm reduction generally however there are a few funnies that I thought were important to highlight some of which others have covered some of which very few are discussing number one it's studied perception of social disorder not actual social disorder this study did not study empirical data it did not for example analyze actual crime data what it did study was according to the executive summary perceptions and observations of social disorder by business owners and operators in downtown Rock Bridge this is important to highlight because as others have noted this is simply a measurement of what businesses in the area think they've seen not only that but it required them to recall what they saw take this question from the survey for example which was sent out of five times in the area around your business when did you your staff or your customers see or experience the following activities respondents were then asked to indicate whether they saw or experienced the activity never more than months ago within the last three months within the last month or within the last day this relies on the business owners own perceptions as well as their own memory when neither of which are testable or verifiable and as the researcher noted experiences and observations were not consistent even between adjacent businesses which suggests that observing perceiving and experiencing social disorder is impacted by many other factors number two the top five observed activities were non-threatening this study didn't just ask about crime it also asked about benign behaviors such as people just standing around in the area in fact the most popular observation made by survey respondents was just that people just hanging out not doing anything particularly harmful worth reading of all the activities the survey asked about loitering was the most common observation as well the top five behaviors reported loitering being intoxicated yelling sleeping using drugs are all benign activities none of which are threatening to the general public and are indicative of larger social issues than whether the SDS exists people have been loitering intoxicated sleeping yelling and using addictive substances in public for much longer than the SCS has existed number three social disorder increased in all areas not just around the SES when you differentiate the activities based on the three sub areas of the study 500 meters around the STS 500 meters around the SES and downtown proper you find that the area closest to the SES doesn't actually have a significant higher proportion of recalled observances of social disorder take loitering for example the mean for all three sub areas is between 3 and 4 same goes for the other top 4 behaviors public intoxication between 3 and 4 for all sub areas drug usage between 2 and 3 for all suburbs and drug dealing between 1 and 2 for all areas in fact some of the behaviors measured by the study drug-dealing yearning and defecating panhandling sex work yelling sleeping and trespassing increased in all three sub areas if the SES was the cause of an increase in social disorder near the facility we wouldn't expect social disorder to increase for the 500-meter area or for the downtown proper area that tells me that something other than the SES is causing the increase in activity or more specifically the increase in recollected observation of the activities one potential cause could be the drug crisis which like so many other cities in Canada left bridges experiencing the study's author highlights that the increasing incidence and prevalence of drug use is largely inseparable statistically from the impacts of the SES in other words you can't separate drug usage from the drug crisis and activate it solely to the SES number for the love bridge Police Service refused to provide crime data as I mentioned this study focused on gathering observations based on respondent recollection and while it did have some empirical data doc call-outs are just needle pickup and EMS call-outs it lacked empirical crime data which could have seriously augmented the findings however the lack of empirical data was not by design the researcher submitted three formal requests to left bridge police service for crime and calls for service data for that study area the lack of this information prompted dr. Peale to cautions 30-meters that the data is incomplete due to the failure of a key stakeholder to participate meaningfully as such the findings cannot be used in isolation for decision-making in conclusion this study did not determine that crime or social disorder objectively increased downtown or near the SDS instead it determined that people thought it was increasing and while it might indeed be increasing objectively this study did not find that as well those observations show increase in activity throughout the downtown and the Upper East Side not just around the SES which indicates that something else is causing the increases either separate from or in conjunction with the SES getting rid of the SES clearly will not eliminate any of this behavior perceived or otherwise from the downtown thanks for watching thanks to all these subscribers and patreon patrons who make this video possible can follow me online at seabird CA / Kim I'm also on Facebook Twitter and Tumblr if you appreciate the videos I share here on YouTube the post I write on my blog and the content I share on my other social media accounts please consider making a monthly donation either through PayPal or patreon if you agree with the points I raised in my video please give me a thumbs up and let me know in the comments below why please share my video and subscribe to my channel please also click on the notification bells you receive notifications whenever I upload a new video I look forward to talking to you again soon

Python Pants - A build system for large codebases with multiple dependencies - PyConSG 2016
so our next speaker will be Mr angat Sing here presenting on python pant a VI system for large Cod bases with multiple dependencies so Mr is actually leading infrastructure and operation team at VII Rakuten and previously he work as a site reliability engineer at P he's passionate about infrastructure automation monitoring distributed system design and development productivity so let's our hands to [Applause] welcome thanks for joining I know it's uh right after lunch and you guys might be sleepy slightly it's okay I I allow sleeping in my do so so if you if you feel sleepy you can just raise your hand and let me know and yeah yeah okay so let's uh let's start uh my name is angut as as uh as the inro introduction mentioned and today I'm going to uh tell you about build systems for large code bases so uh hang on yeah uh so I graduated from uh N US Computer Engineering in 2013 attended many lectures in this room uh I was in Sr at Twitter after graduation for one year and then I uh joined uh Vicki in Singapore as the as a devops engineer uh so so first thing that I'm going to let's get the agenda straight so first thing that I'm going to talk about is code organization uh and for large code bases and then like how do we uh solve some pain points uh to improve developer productivity we will go over how pants can be used as a build system uh and how it generates easily portable PEX files uh and then we'll go over some code examples about pants and just some repository examples about how we structure code uh so I might be uh talking about pants here as a build as a build uh tool as that's that's the one that I'm mostly familiar with and it's written in Python but there are other build tools as well uh such as there's Buck by Facebook Basel by Google uh so I urge you to explore all of these tools and uh the main uh concept being that using a build tool is better than not using one right so you should explore all of these uh so let's start with code organization so let's say you are a small team or or a small startup uh the most intuitive way to organize code is to is to have a project repository per service right so you can have like let's say one service is the user service and you have a repository called users you have one payment engine you have a payment engine service right so you you you divide your code into block as as uh as just as you divide your service just as you divide your microservices right the so the the the idea behind microservices is a great idea right I mean you can have all your teams working independently on different different pieces of uh the infrastructure they can uh like you can do different deploys at different times you can deploy users code you can deploy your API you can deploy some API changes in the front right but but that does not mean that microservices should be micro repositories as well right your microservices should not map to micro repositories uh it is it is an opiniated thing to talk about when I when I say all of this so take this all take all of this with a pinch of salt because these are all opinions and uh they all work in different in different scenarios different uh opinions work for different people right so uh split so when you so a lot of uh companies are now going from the idea of splitting a monolith into uh microservices right so the most intuitive way the first thing you think of is okay I have these Services let me pull out the code for these services and put them into individual repositories and that's the simplest answer in fact uh recently you guys have seen that uh GitHub is offering unlimited free private repositories so why not why not create multiple thousands of repositories right so as a small team that's okay that that works good you have separation of concerns but as teams grow both in terms of age as well as uh in terms of Team size uh you you you T managing these thousands of micro repositories it's it becomes a pain managing microservices is uh can be automated can be handled right so why not do something for this uh in this scenario as well where you manage your uh where you automate your management of micro of these repositories so as I mentioned so uh one of the main uh reasons I say that uh it can be painful is because a lot of these Services might have some shared code right uh for example uh some service might have a special way of connecting to a redish right they might say that okay after three retries I don't want to retry again right but all of these are configuration parameters that can be supplied to a library right so technically all of these Services should not be reimplementing or re restating all of these basic Logics right so so this is where I say that's the shared code right so if you have shared code in multiple uh repositories and multiple teams are managing these repositories it turns out that all of these people might be doing it differently and you you end up with a lot of messy standards that's that's one way the other way is you can publish these shared code as some sort of artifacts maybe jar files or maybe you can publish them as U some uh Ruby Jam or or in case of python you can publish them as eggs whatever you want right uh but then all the other services import them by doing versioning but then you end up in a version hell right you have so many down let's say I have a uh I have I maintain a library and there are so many downstreams like 50 downstreams 50 Downstream services that are using that uh uh uh uh my my code and I want to make a tiny function change like like a tiny change that does not change the API but it changes but it adds some improvement now I have to go in all of the other repositories and make that change right that's definitely a productivity nightmare right so so it does not so my idea is that it does not scale well for a large number of microservices and you you end up with some complex methods of sharing Library liaries partioning publishing artifacts versioning hell so let's so I invite you to think of uh code code unit not as projects but as libraries right so there's no special definition of unit of code but I'm defining one here which I call library is the unit of code right now so now each of the services so let's say we divide our code uh code into bunch of different libraries right and each of the services are composed of these libraries with overlapping libraries amongst multiple Services right so the idea behind that if you if you start with this mindset uh then you promote the idea of writing reusable and sharable code directly from the start right so you you say even even if that module might not be intended to be reused later on you you start with a concept that hey I will make make sure my code is uh is individually testable and can be exported into another uh project that that might need it so so we think of libraries as units of code The Good the there are lots of other benefits of uh going with this approach uh you you get single like a single lint build test and release process that can be bagged into this repository uh they're easy to coordinate changes across multiple modules uh easier to set up development environments because all the development environment tool chain is present inside this repository where you can it can uh set up all of these Services together for you uh tests uh so let's say you change one shared library and if if that library is changed it will run the test for all the all the uh services that are using that library and run the test for all of them right so this is not a uh very New Concept that I'm introducing here this is an existing concept that a lot of uh uh other companies have uh used in the past and uh so it's it's it's called the monor repo there are pros and cons of this uh a lot of people argue against monor repo and a lot of people argue for monor repo uh so I Define monor repo as a repository with a defined structure for organizing reusable components of your code right so uh it started with Google so Google has a famous uh very large monor repo in which uh they use they have this uh system called the basil with which they extract certain pieces of the code whenever developer wants to work on them right but the good thing is that they have standardized their tooling all around that uh tooling around all around that and it prevents uh it prevents uh reimplementation of or like Reinventing the wheel every time you start a new service uh you get all the benefits that other services have for example uh if you start building if you start building a service with within this monor repo you will get monitoring for free you'll get profiling for free because it is it is already part of the build process it is already part of the tooling right uh so and the success of large engineering teams depends heavily on building on top of the work of people that have worked in this company before right you you keep on building on top of uh other people's codes so so now we know that there are some there's some benefits of thinking is codes as libraries and organizing your code in such a system where where it's all present in one place right so in summary so so we need a system that allows easier code sharing amongst multiple projects and uh as mentioned fixing a bug in a function should not require changing versions of other Downstream projects uh we need standardization and testing and building process right and let's talk about python right so so I'm pretty sure a lot of you have used virtual environments in Python right and virtual environments to manage dependencies of a single python project is very easy you have your virtual environment but if you have multiples in like tens of 20s of uh projects in your uh in your repository managing the virtual environments is going to be painful right so we need some way to automate this process we need some way to automate the building of your virtual environments so so that's where uh pants steps in so pants it's actually pants right so so it is a build system uh it is a build tool with support from multiple languages written in Python uh it was developed at Twitter and for square to manage multiple build Targets in a single uh repository uh it it uh the dependencies are managed build files so think of build files your make files uh that live alongside the code I I'll touch on build files in a bit so let's talk about the history why is it called Pants why is such a weird name so it used to be a python rapper around Java ant the the famous Java build Tool uh and it used to generate just the build.xml file that used to be consumed by ant right so so python plus ant is pants right so that's why it's called Pants uh it's just a weird name somebody came up with right uh then was later completely Rewritten uh to be an independent build tool with main support for jvm languages and python though the other languages are also supported with with plugins so let's go some uh basic concept of pants uh so first thing is uh you you define a source tree so Source tree is your basically your your monor repo uh and inside it you have a source folder SRC and inside it you have multiple languages let's say python scalar Java right uh inside the source tree uh each of the leaf nodes is your target right you want to build the targets which are the leaf nodes right uh and build files Define the targets at each each Leaf node in this in the source stream we'll come on we'll I'll talk more about build files later on so if you don't understand this part that's fine so build so the build files are written in a specific DSL uh that is uh it looks exact it looks very similar to python uh it's very simple uh it has some basic functions uh it basically invokes uh some python Constructors in the in in the pants project so then we talk about targets so what do we mean by targets uh so when you have a uh multiple Services what does a service mean service is a process right so a process starts from a binary or some sort of uh like some some sort of a proc like it's you start from some some sort of a process right uh or a Target can be a library right so which can be used by other uh targets right so targets can either be a binary or a library which can be referenced by other targets so uh here I mentioned PEX for python so let's let's uh talk about uh what is peex so uh PEX is a python executable it's a similar in idea to what to what a virtual environment is um it so aex file is a specially crafted zip file uh with a python directive uh so it starts it's start it's it can run anywhere where python can run uh it basically is a one single file with which contains all your dependencies uh just like like in Virtual environment but you have that one folder so it's basically a compressed version of your virtual environment uh so you can put this and it so it's it's an immutable artifact so you can put this uh in your Docker container uh and run it uh run it on where anywhere where where python can run right so so this follows the same ideology that the docker follows right you create containers you create immutable containers and then you destroy them right whenever you want to change code so here we're creating immutable artifacts in Python uh that'll run on any server that can run python right so it it is a ZIP file with a python director as I said uh it can also run targets locally uh without the need of maintaining any uh complex virtual environments uh so pants also supports versioning of uh third party dependencies so for example flask request or any of those libraries uh so you can basically uh do so all of your projects in that uh in that repository can use a standard version of flask can use a standard version of uh of request library right and and you can ensure that uh all of these so you basically don't run into surprises because of versions uh let's let's look at what a what a build file is so as I mentioned uh it's a pan DSL but it's essentially a function call in the background so this is what uh this is how you build a python library right so for example my my folder contains Source python some shared Library li. py uh so here in that build file this is how I'll Define I'll Define the dependencies as a fabric and then in the source file I'll say it's it's a libp and I give it a name called shared lib which can be referenced by other projects or other uh targets now let's say I want to build a wrapper on top of this uh python Library U I want to build a rapper a command line interface to this uh this library that I made so all I have to say is python binary name CLI and in the dependencies you can see that it references shared lip right so you can Define uh complex dependencies and pents can figure out the dependency path and build the uh files in files in order uh so let's uh so this is the uh build file example so let let let's go over some examples so the most common popular examples are the Twitter Commons repository so Twitter Commons repository contains basically all the common boilerplate code that was used in inside Twitter and its open source uh amongst so it basically contains like zookeeper shared libraries or uh you can we we will we'll just go over that in a bit so let me give you a quick demo of a of a like how a simple python flask application can be built using uh uh pants so can anybody everybody see this it's big enough yeah so I have a repository here uh let me open it here right so ignore the disc folder because that's where the PEX files are built and stored U it's actually also in getting ignore so as I mentioned there's a source route so Source python so I'm so the goal of this is I'm writing a small app that does hello world and then trans and then uh I use a library shared library to translate hello world into different languages right so first let's just look at uh hello world dopy uh so I'm pretty sure a lot of people have used flask here this is very simple so the default route slash is it just returns hello world and then there's another route / Lang so you can pass any two character language like de for German uh know Z for Chinese uh and it'll translate to different languages so you see I use from translator import translator right so let's let's look at the translator let me just close this yeah so translator is very simple so it uh so it maintains a counter of how many times you have translated so it's just some simple functionality inside it it uses a third party Library called text blob to do the translation so it Returns the counter and just the translated translated message that is resp to it right so let's uh so let's look at the build file for this translator so as we saw earlier uh if you want to build a shared Library uh this is the build file syntax so you say python Library name translator dependencies so the dependency is a third party python text blob right so in the third party folder I've listed all my dependencies so it's if you know notice that's requirements.txt this is very similar to what you're used doing in PIP so so in in here I've listed the two dependencies flask and text blob uh here I can also restrict them to specific versions so so all my uh projects python projects we use just a specific version of flask or a specific version of text blob right so Source by third party text blob and then Globs basically means it finds all the star. pi files inside the current directory and concatenates them into a into a list so now I want to use this translator library that I just built in in my hello world so in the build file here you will see uh that I'm using flask so third party flask and then I'm also using uh translator which lives inside this uh project so Source equals hello world right so now let's let's go back uh to the command line and let's run uh pants so pants is H shipped as a as a bash file so if you if you open pants uh so it it invokes pants using bash uh you can go read about the documentation about the details of how how it is involved so what I'll do I'll specify a goal that I want to create a binary and then I'll specify the path so Source python hello world and I want to create the hello world Target right so this will generate the hello world for me so now it's generated inside D folder and this is the PEX file so now when I'll run this speex file uh let's go back to the browser so Local Host 5,000 so that's hello world that's the root now let's say I'll translate it to 20 so zh uh I don't know what other languages Mo I know what that language is the German right so so it's a simple app that is running as a single binary right now I can put this binary inside my Docker container and all I have so my Docker file will be very simple right from ub2 add hello world. PEX run hello world. PEX that's all right so it's it's my Docker file is very simple it just contains hello world. PEX uh so one thing that I uh so now let's let's see what the PEX file is actually so I can actually do a unzip so it's as I said it's a it's a zip file so it basically extracted that here so it so text file is basically just a zip file uh and it has a directive in the in the start that basically says invoke python on the main. PI right and the main. pi then eventually calls your code so all the binaries all the if you see all the dependencies are paged together in the deps folder so text blob is here uh all the nltk the dependency of text blob so all the uh dependencies are packed together in one file in one executable format so this is uh very useful when you're deploying uh services using Docker containers uh so I've built a sample Docker container but this Docker file is uh so this Docker file is uh is just an example where I actually build the PEX file inside the docker build command but ideally you should just be putting you should be just be putting you should be your CI environment should just build the PEX file and you should just put it inside the uh Docker container so here I basically build it uh it's very simple uh install some dependencies pants binary hello world and then just just run hello world. Tex so uh so this is one example very simple example I'll I'll show you one more example uh uh so this is uh this is Wiki's uh uh Wiki's actual code production code this is uh the operations repository uh where all the uh infrastructure related code is so I'll show you Source python right so we have so this is a I've taken out some parts from here uh so there's uh so we have the deploy which is written in Fab fabric H proxy is basically some helper tools that we've written around H proxy uh and opsm is just a like a control like it's a it's a flask application that uses all of these libraries right uh postgress uses all of these libraries signal effect uses H proxy Library so we basically have a lot of code sharing here uh and this is facilitated because of pants each of these could have been individual repositories but I think that would have been very difficult for us to manage uh there are more projects inside this that i' that that I've extracted out uh so yeah so that's uh now let's let's also look at uh wait so Twitter oh sorry GitHub so this is Twitter Commons so this is also another uh Library uh this is also another uh mono repo style project uh where you can reference from uh if you're trying to build applications using pars uh so here you can see Source since it has support for multiple languages Twitter mainly uses Python and Java uh so you can see there's Java code here that it can build uh there's python code here so there's lots of uh so check style so having the benefit of having check style inside the repository where all the code is that's that's immense right you can uh enforce standards across all the code that the developers are committing all right so so common this is all the different uh so Confluence they have some API around Confluence some decorators at all the other uh all the other uh uh projects inside this use so this is just a so this is probably 10% the size of the actual repository inside T there's like hundreds of more projects that use all of these common libraries so I think uh that's all for my talk uh I hope you have a good idea about pants I'll be happy to take some questions have you actually try putting the P what's the gon gon have you tried to to comp toon something just curious no I haven't I haven't okay um I was also curious cuz I just now I saw post West and U from the demonstration that you show it was relativ um just python code and I I was wondering how would a library behave if we have um local Dynamic library dependencies for example you need post so it would not it does not package the system dependencies so system dependencies need to exist on the system it only packages just like virtual environment it only packages the uh python dependencies so this also only packages the pendencies so we to use the compil toic correct so the container needs to set up like the I think for postgress it will be postgressql common Dev or something right that that package needs to be installed so those header files need to be supplied separately so it does not so PEX does not fulfill the complete role of what Docker does right so it's it it does it's not a drop in replacement for Docker I'm not saying that it does not package the full system it's python or like the languages that it supports right so it packages the languages dependencies but if they have native dependencies then the system needs to provide those native libraries good question what what server whis server I'm not sure wsg yeah so that so that that will come as a separate process right so that that you'll have to uh so so yeah that will be a uh I would say that will have to be handled separately outside of PEX if unless it is uh natively unless it is native python right as as as mentioned earlier anything else that's all cool all right thanks thanks for sing in you

Proverbs 15 - Wise Sayings of Solomon (pt. 6)
[Music] the Book of Proverbs chapter 15 why sings of solomon part 6 a soft answer turns away wrath but a harsh word stirs up anger the tongue of the wise uses knowledge rightly but the mouth of fools pours forth foolishness the eyes of the Lord are in every place keeping watch on the evil and the good the wholesome tongue is a tree of life but perverseness in it breaks the spirit a fool despises his father's instruction but he who receives correction is prudent in the house of the righteous there is much treasure but in the revenue of the wicked is trouble the lips of the wise disperse knowledge but the heart of the fool does not do so the sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord but the prayer of the upright is his delight the way of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord but he loves him who follows righteousness harsh discipline is for him who forsakes the way and he who hates correction will die hell and destruction are before the Lord so how much more the hearts of the sons of men a scoffer does not love one who corrects him nor will he go to the wise a merry heart makes a cheerful countenance but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken the heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge but the mouth of fools feeds on foolishness all the days of the afflicted are evil but he who is of a merry heart has a continual feast better is a little with the fear of the Lord than great treasure with trouble better is a dinner of herbs where love is than a fatted calf with hatred a wrathful man stirs up strife but he who is slow to anger a lays contention the way of the lazy man is like a hedge of thorns but the way of the upright is a highway a wise son makes a father glad but a foolish man despises his mother folly is joy to him who is destitute of discernment but a man of understanding walks uprightly without counsel plans go awry but in the multitude of counselors they are established a man has joy by the answer of his mouth and a word spoken in due season how good it is the way of life winds upward for the wise that he may turn away from Hell below the Lord will destroy the house of the proud but he will establish the boundary of the widow the thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the Lord but the words of the pure are pleasant he who is greedy for gain troubles his own house but he who hates bribes will live the heart of the righteous studies how to answer but the mouth of the wicked pours forth evil the Lord is far from the wicked but he hears the prayer of the righteous the light of the eyes rejoices the heart and a good report makes the bones healthy the ear that hears the rebukes of life will abide among the wise he who disdains instruction despises his own soul but he who heeds rebuked it's understanding the fear of the Lord is the instruction of wisdom and before honor is humility [Music] you

Leena Bokil: My Space Odyssey||conference NLCSSPR 2023|| December 2023
so so my journey my journey began with tyac and then uh with Electronica where I was R&D officer and I did a little bit of Hardware that work but then later on it became kind of clerical job because I was told I'm going to be looking into ISO 9000 and documentation and I said no I've not done engineering just to be a clerical this kind of post I was well paid but then I thought okay let's uh join academics and pursue my dream my dream as it happens I started dreaming about stars Cosmos that since childhood so uh I wanted to go to the stars or work here and observe the Stars so astronomy astrophysics I didn't know the terms but I wanted to be an astrophysicist honestly initial uh aspiration and ambition was to become a Pure scientist pure physicist like that it was not engineering that came later on and my dad told stories about our very own Indian SCI scientists even the ancient scientists and philosophers from basar AAR arat toam of course sir C ran he inspired me and um his famous words uh they uh made a permanent Mark uh so in the history of science we often find that the study of some natural phenomenon has been the starting point in the development of a new branch of knowledge so it was then that I wanted to be a scientist or mathematician I was 100 on 100 in mathematics uh and I had interest in astronomy Cosmos cosmology then my dad told me stories and I was uh imagining we had per little books and very little material and that stuff we didn't have Google of first so it was all based on imagination and creativity back then so today's kids they the students youngsters they are very bad they're blessed with all kinds of Technology but we had to imagine a lot and um Carl s and these great and philosophers uh they were the ones who that inspired me to become what I am today so I read this somewhere and I said yes this is to man must rise above and beyond Earth's atmosphere and only thus will he know more about the universe in which he lives so sratus back then in 500 BC he was such a great Visionary today uh we have the space Vehicles the rockets and um the spacecraft spaceship to take us from Earth to space and um this was what made an impact so astronomy deals with only sitting here and doing observations of the celestial bodies and Mathematics and all this is involved but to go into space and Space Engineering and technology is quite recent because it came after only after World War I and we all know that USSR or Russia being the Pioneers by far they have been the Pioneers in Space Engineering and technology and uh then of course came American space agency Premier space agency NASA so this is a great picture one of the astronauts my friends he shared this a picture taken from space and Earth at the bottom and clouds and Horizon and then we can see the sky becoming darker and we can moonrise so this has been fascinating for everyone I'm sure and therefore Space Engineering and Technology uh which is a multidisiplinary branch uh this takes us into space we can put spacecraft satellites into space we can take human beings into space so all this came only in the 1950s and especially this one SP being the first manmade satellite that Russia sent so S Clark science fiction writer he had said a day may come when man will put a man-made satellite so we all knew only Earth has just one natural satellite moon but but then a manmade satellite or artificial satellite that will be sent very soon he had said and he had predicted this in the 1940s and so therefore I believe I'm a St believe that yesterday's science is today's technology yesterday's fiction is today's reality so all this you know reading this stuff I grew up and uh wanted to be a part of this kind of space engineering technology and we only had Soviet and some magazines and some International books and magazines and stuff that we went to library and read and we did not have much material so this is how uh Science and Technology especially space technology really fascinated me and this is the picture of the first cosmon first human being created history cos Yuri Gagarin cccp USSR Russian first pilot and Cosmonaut who made the iconic space voyage and this is of course Saturn fire rocket or the space vehicle that put humans on moon that is poo Mission uh and this is a the famous picture from the Kennedy Space Center uh the rocket lifting off and taking three astronauts astronaut Neil Armstrong bzal and Michael Collins to moon so all this had fascinated me but little did I know then little did I know that uh back then that I would be associated with Premier space agency like NASA National Aeronautics and Space Administration uh the space agency that has a huge budget of billions of dollars and today they have till day they have put maximum number of satellites the ellipse and the blue dots white dots you can see and Blue Marble that is Earth and letters in white NASA and the red probe that deps stands for space exploration low earth orbit and deep space so all this happened only uh when I reached like my early 30s so it took a decade or Dozen Years for me to get here so like uh waku said a modest beginning uh I did from electronics department uh in the laboratory at the I and um I would uh you know mentor and guide students and uh solve their problems so from a modest beginning 0 kilm above that is a simple entc lab and then Aviation I started teaching in i a I taught principles of flight avionics so these subjects that were close to my heart because I love airplanes and 40,000 ft it took me literally and figuratively my LEAP was this way I took this Quantum jum and it was then when I was at the aeronautical Institute that I got to know that there is a space Educators program a course at Nasa where they train the teachers uh it's a professional development course for educators and um I just happened to apply for it I did not take it very seriously but then of course the application was such a brief one only to one essay I had to make an impact so they realized that there's so much passion for space engineering technology and she is a space educator so gave me this opportunity to attend uh the program and therefore NASA uh did a whole lot of impact and it was a game changer for me professionally and uh as an individual too because U my career uh it was not I mean I had faced some ups and downs I was sideline maybe I was not a permanent uh Professor or lecturer at the University of pun also I had taught but then this after attending NASA space Educators program then people started coming to me and they said we would like to felicitate you we would like to invite you as Chief guest guest of honor so on that apart the awards rewards they came later on but it is the knowledge and it's the same individual uh The Thirst for knowledge that I have had from the very beginning even today I sit for hours together at night also I learn new things every day well this is a picture taken from the International Space Station illuminated view of Earth so my m is beginning from the I as such and then uh my journey till martial space flight center it was inside these doors that here in this uh Academy this program uh we were not only taught engineering subjects like space engineering technology mathematics stem education but not only that but also uh space simulation so in this simulator we are like astronauts and they really took us to that space journey it's like uh have not gone beyond the stratosphere but only through simulator a great deal of experience I got and this is a precursor training to astronauts training so uh it's my honor and privilege uh that I could attend this particular training and space shot it takes you like a rocket 10 20 ft abruptly you are up and then free fall we experience micro and zero gravity and this is my colleague Michel who is uh going to experience the multi-axis chair the astronauts experience all of this when they go into space so this is myself on the zero or rather it's micro gravity floor uh the moon gravity you know six gravity experience so I got all of this experience only in one training program and it was uh trust me uh as much as the four years engineering course and then by then I had done my specialization in telecommunications but it is only in this a fortnite training very intensive training that I experience so much a great deal of uh knowledge and experience a rich a very enriching experience so this is myself because I'm an engineer they made me a flight engineer and I'm doing all that extra vehicular activity or space so all this through simulation we did and um this is underwater rescue operation and when astronauts actually come back to earth they splash down into the Pacific Ocean and they come on the ground so all this experience I went through this is ji and myself doing the maintenance and repair outside the space vehicle so even if it is a uh it's a simulator it's an experience as good as a real time and real realistic experience so I also had the honor of meeting many of the NASA's the former administrators managers uh scientists engineers astronauts and um that made an impact on my career and then after that after returning back to India I have done popularizing space science and technology and this is very inspirational because uh it was this quote Neil Armstrong's quote that I had included in my essay that made an impact I'm sure so this is a small step for man and a giant leap for mankind that is what astronaut Neil amstrong had said and it is his first ever first ever human foot on moon another Celestial body and history was created in 1969 then the Apollo Mission landed Neil Armstrong and bazal on moon and Michael Collins was orbiting around the Moon to bring them back safely to Earth so all this made an impact on me and um of course every day I do lot of study and then therefore these same times when is Chandra 2 and now very recently Chandra 3 Lander viam Lander landed on the South Pole of moon so um people come to me to take interviews on radio and television many channels so as a space uh space science and technology Communicator uh I do a very honest job of explaining in very simple words what the mission is all about so whenever NASA's Rock missions take off or it even Indian uh space research organization e Ro missions I give television and radio interviews so all this is very inspirational of course I had the honor of meeting Neil amstrong and P in 2009 when I attended the International Space conference at Orlando Florida and I could see we could meet when we met Neil amstrong he was like we went to moon but it was not big deal so such modest and humble human beings they are the real life Heroes so this is buz we had lunch with him and he shared his views about Moon Mars and Beyond so my journey into NASA and I went six seven times later on again in various capacities so I uh I have been like reading and learning a lot and the ultimate aim of space exploration is to find if there is life elsewhere in the universe so search for extraterrestrial intelligence safy institutes conference and all that as well I have attended and I have been to NASA's as Research Center John Space Center Kennedy and many of the centers and today my uh it's a proud feeling that my students that I have mentored they work with NASA as one noteworthy uh like uh contribution is Hil Modi he a he's an innovation scientist at Nasa as and he's the recipient of big Awards leadership awards iconic leadership awards from NASA and being an Indian as well but like they know that now India is doing great stuff it in our subcontinent or whether people are working elsewhere everywhere abroad so my students they worked at European Space Agency as well not just NASA but Russia Samar in Japan Japanese Jaa one girl recently she did a an internship there and the students that I have mentored and they have joined International Space University and many of the girls from small towns they are the recipients of Dr KP chaa International Scholarship and it is for Ian girls and trust me they're all small term girls so uh it's the big dreams that matter it doesn't matter from where you come but all that matters is where you're going or you're heading so likewise my career as well from 0o Kilometers about the Earth modest lab to 40,000 ft avionics and all these airplanes subject stuff I was teaching in aeronautical Institute and then space space is in finite and so are the opportunity and sky is the lower limit so today I'm placed at this juncture where I myself have a lot of opportunities as a space Ambassador and I may make it to space one day but it is for me as an educator the proudest feeling is that my students are doing great work and they are going places so that is what matters to me so all these are great pictures astrophotography some of my students Al also they have taken up this as a career astrophotography so doing photography in space or sending drones and uh onboard cameras and taking pictures from space because this is astronaut Rusty who went to Moon as well and um some of my friends they keep sharing these pictures and of course I met Sunita Williams as well and many of the nasas and Russian cosmonauts asut astronauts and cosmonauts I have met they are the real life Heroes and great inspiration for me so this is the precursor training that we got we received and these are the astronauts who really make it big they are the bravest of the bra because U it's like when they go on a mission there's no guarantee that they may come back so it's a high profile job but it is a riskiest thing so by the way I never had the opportunity to meet late kalp Chava but I know her folks Papa recently he passed away I have had the honor of meeting the entire family and her siblings I'm in touch with them and now because my students the girls they continuing the legacy of late kPa because they are the recipients of Dr KP chaa International Scholarship so Papa would always tell me Lina you are a great job you are taking K's dream ahead what she could not achieve after 4041 she died in the columia disaster so later on your students now they are coming in and filling that space because a void was created and KP for me and for my students she is immort she is the guiding star and we really miss her but my girl the young students of Indian subcontinent they are the recipients of Dr kalp chaa scholarship very proud that this Legacy is being continued and of course her famous words were the path from dreams to reality does exist so she not only motivates and inspires me but whole lot of young generation of the future astronauts and space scientists in The Astronaut Hall of Fame at Kennedy Space Center the building behind me they have paid homage to all those who lost their lives in space so most of the most of the scientists the astronauts that I have made the I have met in America or inia Russia most of the astronauts they believe astronauts and cosmonauts they pilots and they are the bravest soldiers actually they are the real life Heroes they believe in this Spirit life is either an incredible Adventure or nothing at all so at the honor of meeting Miss Williams won and of course for me after coming back to India after the training uh I went to is many of the centers even before uh this happened NASA happened and I was doing T research as well I had been to East Rose Bangalore and Amad satellite satellite application center s and bssc in tiu anantapuram but today I send my students for iist btech and mtech programs and for intership at and I'm proud that we continuing this Legacy because sir caman himself was the mentor to Dr Sarai and Dr Sarai he was Dr vantra goar and's mentor and you know Guru and today they are my Guru and they are my mentors and my students are getting inspiration from us so we are continuing this Rich Legacy of the men of science from India as well so gone are those days when students used to come to me and say that ma'am we want to go to NASA and work there we want to work abroad but today most of them they want to stay back and I encourage this I ask the young to stay back in India and work for a country because this is now at and we want to do homegrown technology and my startup as to educ we train and Mentor students and encourage them to join either ISRO or or come up with startups so we are encouraging and nurturing test Innovation and uh you know startups because now is the right time and the best time for space so like honorable [Music] says and I'm sure youngsters will take the example of such great scientists and Engineers of India who led the foundation of Baba Atomic Energy Research Center BRC Dr homi Baba and the founding father of nuclear program and also Dr vikam SAR India's Founding Father ISRO or space program and Dr apj kamam sir Dr you know I have met most of the chairman ISRO that is Dr radak Krishna s madavan nay sir Dr Kumar sir and of course last year I met Mr snat Dr snat as well they are doing a great turn they are doing a great contribution to India and today I encourage my students to stay back in India don't go abroad work for our nation because our motherland needs us and the youngsters should get inspired by our contribution therefore last year at the India space Congress I was invited to inspire and encourage youngsters to join India's Space Program if not directly into his Ro but as startups as suppliers and trust me many of my friends and students have been indirectly directly part of chandan mission viam lard and service provider suppliers to the actuators the thrusters viam Landers you know even the solar panels so on and so forth so today we are encouraging homegrown technology and therefore what we saw in the initial years ins and all these programs but it was Chandra one and two and then Mangan and now in the coming times after Chandra and three ad L1 Mission and mongan 2 so on and so forth and gagan Mission we are all waiting for it because some of my students will be the youngsters the future space scientists and Engineers will be a part of this Mission so it's a proud feeling uh and um it's very encouraging and I come on television and radio for the interviews so as a science and technology Communicator V it's my duty to very in very simple words explain what this mission is all about so all this I keep doing in marati Hindi English so on and so forth and uh well one of my greatest Inspirations has been Sharm who I keep meeting every now and then and he is also now part of the gagan missions planning and training so he's a great inspiration for all of us and when I had met Kiran Kumar sir he was asking me had you worked at ISRO I said well I visited many of the ISRO centers but I have not been Insider of is but then I encouraged my students to uh you know attend and we have also organized e exhibitions and in this way as a science communicator and now very recently we have also founded what is called Sir CB ran science research center through science labor and science fun and learn DIY do it yourself we are encouraging we are encouraging the youngsters to do more of more and more of practical stuff and enjoy science doing with their hand with the hands and through experimentation so this has been my journey and now for me uh like personally and professionally it's a great moment because recently I met Dr Jil the director of sa Institute and uh uh she had played the uh of course she has been the director of SE Institute and her role was played by the Hollywood actors Jory Foster in the movie contact in the science fiction I have in this throughout my journey I have met many great scientists engineers astrophysicist Dr s s he talks about are we alone so the ultimate aim of space exploration is now for me to find how we came here on planet Earth and is there life elsewhere in the universe so I took up to astrobiology in the very recent time so I keep reading even biology and life science now because it's all the more important our is carbon based life so Elsewhere on other in other worlds it could be silicon based phosphorus based life biochemistry all this I keep reading every day so trust me it's very challenging but I enjoy do doing this I'm a Perpetual student and I keep learning and reading every day this is Mr Dr Tom I had met at at the as Research Center so when we met he asked me are you calp sister I said no uh but yes kpana has been a role model for me so many people tell me that I'm a look alike when I was invited to City Institute yes by the way I met Dr Frank Drake whose Drake equation is very famous is there life elsewhere in the universe so it's a probability the term a nonzero term so therefore it proves that yes life exists in some of the other forms in other world so uh I have met many of the gr but it was my dream to meet late professor Sten Hawking but I couldn't meet him of course I'll go once to meet his folks in England Dr Dr goar they have been mentors to me and this is Papa G felicitating me and he also used to call me KP so recently when I went to Punjab engineering College p chandigar and Dr SAA the director he said we thought kpana is coming back so you are her look Al like the tell me so yes there have been many awards and rewards this one was the I and what I do is I encourage the youngsters you know to take up science pure science engineering and in whatever it is their aspiration we groom them to uh of Astro Ed and also through C ran science research center this is one of my the mentors pmash pris so my students received award for this particular project they are all going places as well and we do stargazing we're going to do it next weekend many of our programs like educational programs workshops and conferences we we impart knowledge and inculcate this thing in the scientific temperament and we want them to be India's future scientist and Engineers so salute to my Guru my mentor Dr Shankar sir and his nephew ashik leftand my friend and fellow left-hander he made the film for days so many of my students also tell me

to the east the Australian Capital Territory is an N clave within the state New South Wales is state capital as Sydney which is also Australia's most populous city in March 2018 the population of New South Wales was over 7.9 million making it Australia's most populous state just under two-thirds of the state's population 5.1 million live in the greater Sydney area inhabitants of New South Wales are referred to as New South Welshman the colony of New South Wales was founded as a penal colony in 1788 it originally comprised more than half of the Australian mainland with its western boundary set at 129th Meridian East in 1825 the colony also included the island territories of New Zealand Van Diemen's land Lord Howe Island and morphic Island during the 19th century most of the colony's area was detached to form separate British colonies that eventually became New Zealand and the various states and territories of Australia however the Swan River Colony has never been administered as part of New South Wales Lord Howe Island remains part of New South Wales while Norfolk Island has become a Federal Territory as have the areas now known as the Australian Capital Territory in the Jervis Bay territory topic history topic Aborigines indigenous people the prior inhabitants of New South Wales were the aboriginal tribes who arrived in Australia about 40,000 to 60,000 years ago before European settlement there were an estimated 250,000 Aboriginal people in the region the woody Lodi people are the original custodians of the Illawarra region of South Sydney speaking of variant of the dorama language the woody woody people lived across a large stretch of land which was roughly surrounded by what is now known as Campbelltown Shoalhaven River and mas Vale the Bunge among people are the original custodians of parts of the northern coastal areas topic 1788 British settlement the European discovery of New South Wales was made by Captain James Cook during his 1770 survey along the unmapped eastern coast of the Dutch named continent of New Holland now Australia in his original journals covering the survey in triplicate to satisfy Admiralty orders Cooke first named the land new Wales named after Wales however in the copy held by the Admiralty he revised the wording to New South Wales the first British settlement was made by what is known in Australian history as the First Fleet this was led by Captain Arthur Phillip who assumed the role of governor of the settlement on arrival in 1788 until 1792 after years of chaos and Anarchy after the overthrow of governor William Bligh a new governor Lieutenant Colonel later Major General Lachlan Macquarie was sent from Britain to reform the settlement in 1809 during his time as governor macquarie commissioned the construction of roads wharves churches and public buildings sent explorers out from Sydney and employed a planner to design the street layout of Sydney the quarry's legacy is still evident today topic mid 19th century during the 19th century large areas were successively separated to form the British colonies of Tasmania proclaimed as a separate colony named Van Diemen's land in 1825 South Australia 1836 Victoria 1851 in Queensland 1859 responsible government was granted to the New South Wales colony in 1855 following the Treaty of Waitangi William Hobson declared British sovereignty over New Zealand in 1840 in 1841 it was separated from the colony of New South Wales to form the new colony of New Zealand Charles Darwin visited Australia in January 1836 and in the voyage of the Beagle chapter 19 of the 11th edition records his hesitations about an fascination with New South Wales including his speculations about the geological origin and formation of the great valleys the Aboriginal population the situation of the convicts and the future prospects of the country topic 1901 Federation of Australia at the end of the 19th century the movement toward Federation between the Australian colonies gathered momentum conventions and forums involving colony leaders were held on a regular basis proponents of New South Wales as a free-trade state were in dispute with the other leading colony Victoria which had a protectionist economy at this time customs posts were common on borders even on the Murray River traveling from New South Wales to Victoria in those days was very difficult supporters of Federation included the New South Wales premier Sir Henry Parkes whose 1889 Tenterfield speech given in Tenterfield was pivotal in gathering support for New South Wales involvement Edmund Barton later to become Australia's first prime minister was another strong advocate for Federation and a meeting held in Corona in 1893 drafted an initial constitution in 1898 popular referenda on the proposed Federation were held in New South Wales Victoria South Australia and Tasmania all votes resulted in a majority in favour but the New South Wales government under premier George Reed popularly known as yes no Reid because of his constant changes of opinion on the issue had set a requirement for a higher yes vote than just a simple majority which was not met in 1899 further referenda were held in the same States as well as Queensland but not Western Australia all resulted in yes votes with majorities increased from the previous year New South Wales met the conditions its government had set for a yes vote as a compromise to the question on where the capital was to be located an agreement was made that the site was to be within New South Wales but not closer than 100 miles 161 kilometers from Sydney while the provisional capital would be Melbourne eventually the area that now forms the Australian Capital Territory was seeded by New South Wales when Canberra was selected topic early twentieth century in the years after World War one the high prices enjoyed during the war fell with the resumption of international trade farmers became increasingly discontented with the fixed prices paid by the compulsory marketing authorities set up as a wartime measure by the Hughes government in 1919 the farmers formed the country party led at national level by Earl page a doctor from Grafton and at state level by Michael Bruckner a small farmer from Tenterfield the Great Depression which began in 1929 assured in a period of political and class conflict in New South Wales the mass unemployment and collapse of commodity prices brought ruin to both city workers into farmers the beneficiary of the resultant discontent was not the Communist Party which remains small and weak but Jack Lang's labour populism Lang's second government was elected in November 1930 on a policy of repudiating New South Wales his debt to British bondholders and using the money instead to help the unemployed through Public Works this was denounced as illegal by conservatives and also by James Collins federal labor government the result was that Lang's supporters in the federal caucus brought down Skilling's government causing a second bitter split in the labour party in May 1932 the governor Sir Philip game dismissed his government the subsequent election was won by the conservative opposition by the outbreak of World War two in 1939 the differences between New South Wales and the other states that had emerged in the 19th century had faded as a result of Federation and economic development behind a wall of protective tariffs New South Wales continued to outstrip Victoria as the center of Industry and increasingly of Finance and trade as well labour returned to office under the moderate leadership of William mikkel in 1941 and remained in power for 24 years world war ii saw another surge in industrial development to meet the needs of a war economy and also the elimination of unemployment topic postwar period labor stayed in power until 1965 towards the end of its term in power it announced a plan for the construction of an opera arts facility on Bennelong Point the design competition was won by jour Knutson controversy over the cost of the Sydney Opera House became a political issue and was a factor in the eventual defeat of labour in 1965 by the conservative Liberal Party led by Sir Robert askin Sir Robert remains a controversial figure with supporters claiming him to be reformist especially in terms of reshaping the NSW economy others though regard the asking era as synonymous with corruption with asking the head of a network involving NSW police and SP bookmaking gute in the late 1960s a secessionist movement in the New England region of the state led to a referendum on the issue the new state would have consisted of much of northern NSW including Newcastle the referendum was narrowly defeated and as of 2010 there are no active or organized campaigns for new states in NSW Askins resignation in 1975 was followed by a number of short-lived premierships by Liberal Party leaders when a general election came in 1976 the ALP under Neville ran were returned to power ran was able to transform this narrow one seat victory into landslide wins known as ran slide in 1978 in 1981 after winning a comfortable though reduced majority in 1984 ran resigned as premier and left Parliament his replacement Barry Unsworth struggled to emerge from rands shadow and lost a 1988 election against a resurgent Liberal Party led by Nick Greiner Unsworth was replaced as a leader by Bob Carr initially Greiner was a popular leader instigating reforms such as the creation of the Independent Commission Against Corruption ICAC Greiner called a snap election in 1991 which the Liberals were expected to win however the out pulled extremely well and the Liberals lost their majority and needed the support of independents to retain power Greiner was accused by icac of corrupt actions involving an allegation that a government position was offered to tempt an independent who had defected from the Liberals to resign his seat so the the Liberal Party could regain it and shore up its numbers Greiner resigned but was later cleared of corruption his replacement as Liberal leader and premier was John Fahey whose government secured Sydney the right to host the 2000 Summer Olympics in the 1995 election Fatty's government lost merrily in the al funder Bob Carr returned to power like ran before him Carr was able to turn a narrow majority into landslide wins at the next two elections 1999 and 2003 during this era NSW hosted the 2000 Sydney Olympics which were internationally regarded as very successful and helped boost cars popularity Carr surprised most people by resigning from office in 2005 he was replaced by Morris yema who remained premier after being reelected in the March 2007 state election until he was replaced by Nathan Rees in September 2008 Rhys was subsequently replaced by Kristina Keneally in December 2009 Keneally's government was defeated at the 2011 state election and Barry O'Farrell became premier on the 28th of March on the 17th of April 2014 though Ferrell stood down as premier after misleading an ICAC investigation concerning a gift of a bottle of wine the Liberal Party then elected treasurer Mike Baird as party leader and premier Baird resigned as premier on the 23rd of January 2017 and was replaced by Gladys Barry G Klien topic government executive authority is vested in the governor of New South Wales who represents and is appointed by Elizabeth the second queen of Australia the current governor is David Hurley the governor commissions as premier the leader of the

Commonwealth but retained independence in all other areas the New South Wales Constitution says the legislature shall subject to the provisions of the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act have power to make laws for the peace welfare and good government of New South Wales in all cases whatsoever topic Parliament the first responsible self-government of New South Wales was formed on the 6th

composed of the sovereign and two houses the Legislative Assembly Lower House and the Legislative Council Upper House elections are held every four years on the fourth Saturday of March the most recent being on the 28th of March 2015 at each election one member is elected to the Legislative Assembly from each of 93 electoral districts and half of the 42 members of the Legislative Council are elected by a statewide electorate topic local government New South Wales is divided into 128 local government areas there is also the unincorporated Far West region which is not part of any local government area in the sparsely inhabited Far West and Lord Howe Island which is also unincorporated but self governed by the Lord Howe Island Board topic emergency services New South Wales is policed by the New South Wales Police Force a statutory authority established in 1862 the NSW Police Force investigates summary and indictable offences throughout the state of New South Wales the state has two fire services the volunteer-based New South Wales Rural Fire Service which is responsible for the majority of the state and the Fire and Rescue NSW a government agency responsible for protecting urban areas there is some overlap due to suburbanization ambulance services are provided through the ambulance service of New South Wales rescue services ie vertical road crash confinement are a joint effort by all emergency services with ambulance rescue police rescue squad and fire rescue units contributing volunteer rescue organizations include the Australian volunteer Coast Guard state emergency service SES Surf Life Saving New South Wales and Volunteer Rescue Association VRA topic demographics topic population the estimated population of New South Wales at the end of March 2018 with seven million nine hundred fifty-five thousand nine hundred people as of the 2016 census the principle ancestries of New South Wales is residents are 23.3% English 22.9% Australian 7.5% Irish 5.9 percent Scottish 5.2 percent Chinese in June 2017 Sydney was home to almost two-thirds sixty five point three percent of the NSW population topic transport passage through New South Wales is vital for cross continent transport rail and road traffic from Brisbane Queensland to Perth Western Australia or to Melbourne Victoria must pass through New South Wales topic railways the majority of railways in New South Wales are currently operated by the state government some lines began as branch lines of Railways starting in other states for instance ball Renauld near the Victorian border was connected by a rail line coming up from Victoria and into New South Wales another line beginning and Adelaide crossed over the border and stopped at Broken Hill railways management are conducted by Sydney trains and NSW trainlink which maintain rolling stock Sydney trains operate strains within Sydney while NSW trainlink operates outside Sydney intercity country and interstate services both Sydney trains and NSW trainlink have their main terminus at Sydney's Central Station NSW trainlink regional and long-distance services consist of xpt services to Grafton casino Brisbane Melbourne and Dubbo as well as Xplorer services to Canberra Griffith Broken Hill Armidale and Murray NSW trainlink intercity trains operate on the Blue Mountains Line central cost and Newcastle line south coast line southern highlands line and hunter line topic roads major roads are the concern of both federal and state governments the latter maintains these through the department of roads and maritime services formerly the roads and traffic authority and before that the Department of Main Roads DMR the main roads in New South Wales are Hume Highway linking Sydney to Melbourne Victoria princes highway linking Sydney to Melbourne via the Tasman Sea coast Pacific highway linking Sydney to Brisbane Queensland via the Pacific coast new england highway running from the pacific highway at newcastle to brisbane by an inland route federal highway running from the Hume Highway south of Goulburn to Canberra Australian Capital Territory stirred highway running from the Hume Highway near Gundagai to Adelaide South Australia Newell highway linking rural Victoria with Queensland passing through the centre of New South Wales Great Western highway linking Sydney with Bathurst as route 32 it continues west as the Mitchell Highway then is the barrier highway to Adelaide via Broken Hill other roads are usually the concern of the RMS and or the local government authority topic air Kingsford Smith Airport commonly Sydney Airport and locally referred to as mascot Airport or just mascot located in the southern Sydney suburb of mascot as the major airport for not just the state but the whole nation it is a hub for Australia's national airline Qantas other airlines serving regional New South Wales include jet star regional Express also known as Rex Virgin Australia formerly known as virgin blue Airlines topic Ferries the state government through Sydney ferries operates ferries within Sydney Harbour in the Parramatta River it also has a ferry service within Newcastle all other ferry services are privately operated spirit of tasmania ran a commercial ferry service between Sydney and Devonport Tasmania this service was terminated in 2006 private boat services operated between South Australia Victoria and New South Wales along the Murray and Darling rivers but these only exist now is the occasional tourist paddlewheeler service topic education topic primary and secondary the NSW school system comprises a kindergarten to year 12 system with primary schooling up to year 6 and secondary schooling between year 7 and 12 schooling is compulsory from before 6 years old until the age of 17 unless year 10 is completed earlier between 1990 and 2010 schooling was only compulsory in NSW until age 15 primary and secondary schools include government and non-government schools government schools are further classified as comprehensive and selective schools non-government schools include Catholic schools other denominational schools and nondenominational independent schools typically a primary school provides education from kindergarten level to year 6 a secondary school usually called a high school provides education from year 7 to 12 secondary colleges are secondary schools which only cater for years 11 and 12 the NSW education Standards Authority classifies the 13 years of primary and secondary schooling into six stages beginning with early stage 1 kindergarten and ending with stage 6 years 11 and 12 topic record of school achievement a record of school achievement Rosa is awarded by the NSW education Standards Authority to students who have completed at least year 10 but leave school without completing the higher school certificate the rosa was introduced in 2012 to replace the former school certificate topic higher School Certificate the higher School Certificate HSC is the usual year 12 leaving certificate in NSW most students complete the HSC prior to entering the workforce or going on to study at university or TAFE although the HSC itself can be completed at TAFE the HSC must be completed for a student to get an Australian tertiary admission rank formerly universities admission index which determines the students rank against fellow students who completed the higher school certificate topic tertiary 11 universities primarily operate in New South Wales Sydney is home to Australia's first University the University of Sydney founded in 1850 other universities include the University of New South Wales Macquarie University the University of Technology Sydney and Western Sydney University the Australian Catholic University has two of its six campuses in Sydney and the private University of Notre Dame Australia also operates a secondary campus in the city outside Sydney the leading universities are the University of Newcastle and the University of Wollongong Armidale is home to the University of New England and Charles Sturt University and Southern Cross University have campuses spread across cities in the state south west and north coast respectively the public universities are state government agencies however they are largely regulated by the federal government which also administers their public funding admission to NSW universities has arranged together with universities in the Australian Capital Territory by another government agency the universities admission center primarily vocational training is provided up the level of advanced diplomas as provided by the state government's ten technical and further education TAFE institutes these Institute's run courses in more than 130 campuses throughout the state topic geography and ecology New South Wales is bordered on the north by Queensland on the west by South Australia on the south by Victoria and on the east by the Tasman Sea the Australian Capital Territory and the Jervis Bay territory form a separately administered entity that is bordered entirely by New South Wales the state can be divided geographically into four areas New South Wales is three largest cities Sydney Newcastle and Wollongong lie near the centre of a narrow coastal strip extending from cool temperate areas on the far south coast to subtropical areas near the Queensland border the Illawarra region is centred on the city of Wollongong with the Shoalhaven euro budala and the sapphire coast to the south the central coast lies between Sydney and Newcastle with the mid-north coast in Northern Rivers regions reaching northwards to the Queensland border tourism is important to the economies of coastal towns such as coffs harbour Lismore Nara and Port Macquarie but the region also produces seafood beef dairy fruit sugar cane and timber the Great Dividing range extends from Victoria in the south through New South Wales to Queensland parallel to the narrow coastal plain this area includes the snowy mountains the northern central and southern Tablelands the southern highlands and the southwest slopes whilst not particularly steep many peaks of the range rise above 1000 metres 3281 feet with the highest Mount Kosciuszko at 2229 metres 7300 13 feet skiing and Australia began in this region at key Andhra around 1861 the relatively short ski season underwrites the tourist industry in the snowy mountains agriculture particularly the wool industry is important throughout the highlands major centres include Armidale Bathurst Bowral Goulburn n'ver L orange Queanbeyan and Tamworth there are numerous forests in New South Wales with such tree species as red gum eucalyptus and crow ash flynn bersia Australis being represented forest floors have a diverse set of understory shrubs and fungi one of the widespread fungi is witches butter trim element erika the western slopes and plains fill a significant portion of the state and have a much sparser population than areas near the coast agriculture is central to the economy of the western slopes particularly the Riverina region and murim Vigi irrigation area in the state southwest regional cities such as Albury dubbo griffith and wagga wagga and towns such as Deniliquin lehman and parks exist primarily to service these agricultural regions the western slopes descend slowly to the western plains that comprise almost two-thirds of the state and are largely arid or semi-arid the mining town of Broken Hill as the largest center in this area one possible definition of the center for New South Wales is located 33 kilometres 21 miles west-northwest of Tottenham topic climate the major part of New South Wales west of the Great Dividing range has an arid - semi-arid climate rainfall averages from 150 to 500 millimetres 5.9 to 19.7 in a year throughout most of this region summer temperatures can be very hot while winter nights can be quite cold in this region rainfall varies throughout the state the far northwest receives the least less than 180 millimetres 7 in annually while the east receives between 700 to 1,400 millimetres 28 to 55 in of rain the climate along the flat coastal plain east of the range varies from oceanic in the south to humid subtropical in the northern half of the state right above Wollongong rainfall is highest in this area however it still varies from around 800 millimetres 31 into as high as 3,000 millimetres 120 in in the wettest areas for example doriga along the southern coast rainfall is heaviest in winter due to cold fronts which move across southern Australia while in the far north around Lismore rain is heaviest in summer from tropical systems and occasionally even cyclones the climate in the southern half of the state is generally warm too hot in summer and cool in the winter the seasons are more defined in the southern half of the state especially as one moves inland towards Southwest slopes Central West in the Riverina region the climate in the northeast region of the state or the north coast bordering Queensland is hot and humid in the summer and mild in winter the Northern Tablelands which are also on the north coast have relatively mild summers and cold winters due to their high elevation on the Great Dividing range peaks along the Great Dividing range vary from 500 metres 1640 feet to over 2,000 metres 6,500 62 feet above sea level temperatures can be cooled too cold in winter with frequent Frost's and snowfall and are rarely hot in summer due to the elevation Lithgow has a climate typical of the range as do the regional cities of orange kuma Oberon and Armidale such places fall within the subtropical Highland CWB variety rainfall is moderate in this area ranging from 600 to 800 millimetres 24 to 30 one in snowfall is common in the higher parts of the range sometimes occurring as far north as the Queensland border on the highest peaks of the snowy mountains the climate can be subpolar oceanic and even alpine on the higher peaks with very cold temperatures and heavy snow the Blue Mountains southern tablelands and central Tablelands which are situated on the Great Dividing range have mild to warm summers and cold winters although not as severe as those in the snowy mountains the highest maximum temperature recorded was forty-nine point seven degrees Celsius 121 degrees Fahrenheit at Menindee in the west of the state on the 10th of January 1939 the lowest minimum temperature was minus 23 degrees Celsius minus 9 degrees Fahrenheit at Charlotte pass in the snowy mountains on the 29th of June 1994 this is also the lowest temperature recorded in the whole of Australia excluding the Antarctic Territory topic economy since the 1970s New South Wales has undergone an increasingly rapid economic and social transformation old industries such as steel and shipbuilding have largely disappeared although agriculture remains important its share of the state's income is smaller than ever before new industries such as information technology and financial services are largely centred in Sydney and have risen to take their place with many companies having their Australian headquarters in Sydney CBD in addition the Macquarie Park area of Sydney has attracted the Australian headquarters of many information technology firms coal and related products are the state's biggest export it's value to the state's economy is over five billion dollars accounting for about 19% of all exports from NSW tourism has also become important with Sydney as its centre also stimulating growth on the north coast around Coffs Harbour and Byron Bay tourism is worth over $25 1 billion to the New South Wales economy and employs 7.1 percent of the workforce in 2007 then premier of New South Wales Morris Yemma established events New South Wales to market Sydney and NSW as a leading global events destination in July 2011 events NSW merged with three key state authorities including tourism NSW to establish destination NSW d NSW New South Wales had a Gross State product in 2010-11 equivalent to gross domestic product of 419 point nine billion dollars which equalled fifty seven thousand eight hundred twenty eight dollars per capita on the 9th of October 2007 NSW announced plans to build a 1,000 megawatts Bank of wind powered turbines the output of these as anticipated to be able to power up to 400,000 homes the cost of this project will be 1.8 billion dollars for five hundred turbines on the 28th of August 2008 the New South Wales cabinet voted to privatize electricity retail causing 1,500 electrical workers to strike after a large anti privatization campaign the NSW business community is represented by the NSW Business Chamber which has 30,000 members topic agriculture agriculture is spread throughout the eastern two-thirds of New South Wales cattle sheep and pigs are the predominant types of livestock produced in NSW and they have been present since their importation during the earliest days of European settlement economically the state is the most important state in Australia with about one-third of the country's sheep one-fifth of its cattle and one-third of its small number of pigs New South Wales produces a large share of Australia's hay fruit legumes Lucerne maize nuts wool wheat oats oil seeds about 51% poultry rice about 99% vegetables fishing including oyster farming and forestry including woodchips bananas and sugar are grown chiefly in the Clarence Richmond and Tweed River areas wolves are produced on the Northern Tablelands as well as prime lambs and beef cattle the cotton industry is centered in the nimoy Valley in northwestern New South Wales on the central slopes there are many orchards with the principal fruits grown being apples cherries and pears about 40,000 200 hectares of vineyards lie across the eastern region of the state with excellent wines produced in the Hunter Valley with the Riverina being the largest wine producer in New South Wales Australia's largest and most valuable thoroughbred horse breeding area is centered on scone in the Hunter Valley the Hunter Valley is the home of the world-famous school more Darley and Kia Ora thoroughbred horse studs about half of Australia's timber production is in New South Wales large areas of the state are now being replanted with eucalyptus forests topic riparian water rights under the Water Management Act 2000 updated riparian water rights were given to those within NSW with livestock this change was named the domestic stock right which gives an owner or occupier of a land holding is entitled to take water from a river estuary or lake which fronts their land or from an aquifer which is underlying their land for domestic consumption and stock watering without the need for an access license topic national parks New South Wales has more than 780 national parks and reserves covering more than 8% of the state these parks range from rain forests waterfalls rugged bush to marine Wonderland's and outback deserts including World Heritage Sites the Royal National Park on the southern outskirts of Sydney became Australia's first national park when proclaimed on the 26th of April 1879 originally named the national park until 1955 this park was the second national park to be established in the world after Yellowstone National

Add Fractions: 8/30 - 1/20
um so eight thirtieths minus one twentieth so our technique is not immediately multiply by twenty over twenty and thirty over thirty because that'll leave us a lot of work to do but our first step is to go to find a lowest common denominator all right so if you guys want to just write that out like that we're trying to find the lowest common denominator there's a couple of ways of doing it but i suggest the first thing you do is try to think what what's the biggest number that goes into both 30 and 20 just kind of think of that and write it down so the biggest number that goes into both 30 and 20 10 yeah or factorize the bottoms is another way of doing it so but we know that 10 goes into both right so this guy is 10 times 3 right and this guy is 10 times 2 and just factorizing that like that is going to help us to get to the lowest common denominator a lot quicker does that make sense yeah and so now you're going to multiply by something over something to make the bottoms the same so take your time and just write it down and see if you can get it this is the key step if we get this part figured out then the rest is easy so any questions on this part are we figuring this one out so basically we want both bottoms to be the same so what number do we plug in here and here to make the bonds the same then um two on the left and three on the right everyone okay with that okay and again so now we have 2 times 10 times 3 which is 60 and 10 times 2 times 3 which is also 60. so so our lowest common denominator is 60 basically and on the left we multiply by 2 over 2 on the right multiply by 3 over 3 right so two times eight so one times three three so we got sixteen sixtieths minus three sixtieth or sixtieths you okay with that yeah yeah so now you've got the same bottom so you can combine the tops thirteen sixtieths yeah right yeah and i'll just run through another method that some students like which is perfectly fine you can think i'm trying to find the lowest common multiple of 30 and 20. so i've got 30 and two of those is 60 three of those is 90 and so on 20 goes 20 40 60 80 and so on and the lowest common multiple is 60. so you can find it that way as well and see i need 60th so i'll multiply this guy by 2 i'll multiply this guy by 3 to get 60. so that's another way of doing it right well once again real quick what would have been cumbersome is to just multiply this guy by 20 over 20 and this guy by 30 over 30 because then we get 160 over 600 minus 30 over 600 which is a 130 over 600 which is i guess 13 over 60. so i mean you get there in the end it's just a cumbersome way and i want students to learn how to get the lowest common multiple anyway because it's it's important things to know how to do for future classes

Angel Bracelet
hello it's sarah and i have a bead share today i've been playing with these beads that i got from beadaholique.com they're acrylic it's the flower shaped ones so i have this whole pile in front of me i kind of organized so i could show you what i got um they didn't have all the colors available or in all the styles and stuff like that so i just kind of picked and choose what just a variation of a few different styles um and then i have a bracelet that i made but these i think are my favorite these are very small they're like little mini bell shape those little bell flowers that you can that you see in the spring um they're adorable i got pink blue and white in that and these are just some little bead dangles that i've been making with them and i just kept these real simple real little and i could see like putting them down a chain or something and it would just be kind of a cute little bead dangle i mean you could always add them to a a bigger piece too but i just wanted to do a little something with each this is another um style i got it's kind of like a lily maybe a lily because it has that split in the side and they only had pink of that so i got that in the pink and then these are two small uh like a little tulipe one and the yellow i mean i'm sorry the white and the blue and those are little and here's what i did with them i just did a little bead dangle like that with a green inside and white on the bottom just real simple i just wanted to see what they would look like and this one i put a flower and then i stacked the two of them i put that like lily one or whatever in the middle of the tulip one just to see what it would be like and then these are the big ones that everyone uses for their angels so i got purple blue oh and actually yellow purple blue and yellow in those um and here's the angel i did do an angel with it really cute i like it it's just a variation i love making angels so it's always nice to have something else to make and then this is just a a little flower dangle i mean you could do it this way too like on a stick pin you could have it facing up but i happen to make this one facing down so i did those and then these are cute i don't know what this kind of flower would be considered but i like it i like it's a five petal open flower and i've been playing with these and kind i only got pink and blue in that and you can kind of stack them so i did a couple different things this one's hanging down with like a big bead cap on top of it but like if you do it this way see how it looks going up so that's pretty i like that bead cap with it it looks good kind of have to play and see what looks right with it but that one looks good i like that and then this one's a bead dangle so this one's going down and i just put a big butterfly swarovski crystal there so that's another little bead dangle but that one's facing up and then this is the blue one which way is this facing up again but this has a different uh bead cap on the end so they fit pretty good in those nice big bead caps i like those and that would look really nice on the top of a stick pin because of the pearls at the very top that would look good then i got these which are like uh kind of a they're not as deep as most of them like most of them have a deeper hole this is kind of shallow there so it's just um let's see what did i make with that i made a couple of bead dangles this one goes this way actually i did this one facing up and this one facing up too i think you could probably make a little angel with those two they're probably a good size for a little like this is the difference it's not that much of a difference i think you could make an angel with that too so yeah i think i could and i only got purple in that and then this is the last one it's like a little tulip pink and i didn't even make anything with that yet but i want to show you my um oh here's another one so that's just simple it's just simple like just the bead itself all right so what else all right that's it so here's my bracelet i love my bracelet i when i do beading my desk gets so messy oh my gosh so i've been wearing these lately like these are um i made these a while back and i don't know why they're light and they're easy to wear and put on so i just been grabbing them um this says love you by l-o-v-e in a set and then i just made these other bead dangles to go with it oops get in this shot so i've been wearing them but then i was like boy that is just not springy i felt like having something springy so i made this i made an angel bracelet and i incorporated two of the um tulip flowers to make a yellow angel and a blue angel and then i had this pearl one and i had the green one and then i made the orange one today i had some orange beads that made an angel i have my little key in my keyhole here made with love and then in between each angel i just put one of these little i don't know what they're called cockle shell bells i want to call them bells they're little bells in between so i put white blue pink white and in the white ones i put a purple um swarovski crystal and this chain is just um where did i put the chain i don't even know over here it's a blue moon chain but i do like this chain because it's um every other link is well let's say no they're high polished on the inside but they're kind of like um i don't know they have a texture to them so there it it doesn't show it when you if it tarnishes as much i mean it held it's held up really well so i just put a um toggle clasp on the end and i've been wearing that today it's really cute so um i just wanted to share that i'm enjoying this so the next stuff i make with bead dangles i'm going to have some of these little guys on there i'm going to add these in now i have to you have to figure out kind of how they fit together like how they look nice but i kind of like it with these bead caps on the bottom so that's it for today guys thanks for watching

Advanced Financial Analysis: Chapter 5 (1/4)
hello welcome back today we're going to take a look at a new chapter and the focus of this chapter is analyzing risk there are quantitative risks as well as qualitative risk um the first thing i want to mention are more qualitative risks that are described in a company's annual report this is actually very important companies are required by law in the auditor financial statement to list all important relevant and material risk factors and this is located in item 1a so be sure to research that and also take a look at that in details we can generally classify risk factors into four categories we have firm specific risk factors so this has to do with the operations of the firm so having employees is an important part obviously um depending on the nature of the business employee turnover has been a very important factor in almost all industries nowadays and then the other is is ability to attract and retain customers as well as suppliers and in today's environment cyber security is always listed as a threat uh so to end a certainty is uh whether or not uh how how important or significant a particular risk factor is we take that we take the firm's characteristics into account and also obviously uh the industry um something that are unique to a company are also potential litigation um these are all things that you want to take into account as far as industry level again you can see that these have a lot of overlap between firm specific and industry related risk factors some of so what you are looking for in this case is look at the overall risk factor and then look at specific actions a company has undertaken to mitigate those to mitigate those factors as much as possible uh the domestic economy these are typically risks that are beyond the firm's control and what we are looking for here is how much impact those risk factors may have on a firm so for example a company that is in the cyclical industry will be greater impacted by a recession um and a company who's um who use a lot more leverage will be more will be impacted greater by changes in interest rate and um and in today's environment uh international risks are full uh obviously integrated with a firm specific risk so if a firm rely on foreign suppliers for a lot of its um input materials then changes in interest rate as well as government regulations will impact not just the firm's international operation but as well as supplies to the firm most recently we have the situation in russia where almost overnight you know within a few weeks um a lot of u.s companies stopped their operation in russia and um and not just that they the government basically um overtook um the firm's assets so those risks are very real most of these risks are considered qualitative risk because um very few companies will assign a specific dollar amount to them um there are some cases where a company may be able to to associate that so for example pending litigation that's definitely a case the other way to look at this is um looking at what competitors have faced in the area but most of these are qualitative risk factors next we can also look at quantitative risk factors that we can ascertain based on the firm's financial statements um we can classify this type of risk into five also major categories uh the first is the short-term liquidity risk these are quantitative ratios that we look at to determine whether the short-term viability of the firm so short-term here is less than one year so here we're looking at a firm's ability to pay off its obligation within a one-year time span and then the second category are long-term solvency risk so here we're looking at the the long-term sustainability of the firm's operation as well as is use of leverage closely related to that is credit risk so credit risk again is the ability of the company to borrow additional money if needed um and then of course the most important risk for the survival of the firm is is risk to um towards bankruptcy and hopefully your firm is not close to that but that's definitely an important metric that we want to be able to um to evaluate and then finally there are systematic risks systematic risks are beyond a manager's control but once again how can a firm mitigate that does the firm take actions to reduce their systematic risk as much as possible we're going to use financial statement information to help us assess these five different types of risk let's take a look at the framework that we're going to use to analyze this in order to evaluate the risk and separate one of the key approach is to separate operating activity from financing activity and you may remember from the statement of cash flow that we separated cash flow into operating cash flow financing cash flow and investing cash flow uh we're going to use a similar framework here um operating activities are related to a company's ability to generate cash based on its sales of goods and services you also along with that is working capital requirement in order to support the services and production of goods so as far as the short-term operating activity is concerned we those are focused on short-term liquidity risk another important aspect of focusing on operating activity is that this type of activity and the corresponding risk and cash flow are not associated with the financing decision of the firm financing decision is uh how the firm is financed whether or not they are using liabilities versus equity and then investing activity has to do with purchase and sale of assets so if you are expanding the firm then plans and equipment you'll be using cash if you are liquidating plans and equipment then you'll be generating cash finally is your firm's financing ability and that has to do with not the firm has borrowing capacity particularly excess borrowing capacity and that will that will help cushion any unexpected event uh if a firm is using liability heavily then the amount of money that you need to um service is debt which includes both interest payment as well as capital repayment uh will be an important will have an important impact on the firm's use of cash uh together both the investing and financing activity has to do with the firm's long-term solvent solvency risk and then when we are evaluating the quantitative metric we want to also look at well how how severe it is in terms of its impact on the firm's viability and sustainability for example a common tactic to manage cash flow is to stretch out accounts payable that's gonna that's typically not considered severe because that is a short term um a firm that will need to restructure its debt that is a lot more severe and then defaulting on the principal payment that is extremely severe we don't want to get to the stage where a firm is filing for bankruptcy or liquidating the firm we're going to develop methods to quantify and measure some of this risk now the first thing we have to do before we can start computing this ratio is to reformat the balance sheets so that we can segregate operating activity from other types of activities so here we have in a traditional accounting format assets equals liabilities plus equity in order to separate operational versus financial assets and liabilities we're going to do the following so instead of just assets and liability uh assets access equal liability plus equity now we separate assets into operating assets versus financial assets and obviously these are not a gap and therefore there's really no principle associated with our governing principle associated with financial statement analysis financial statement analysis i want to emphasize again is a lot more of an art than the science so we'll have some discretion in terms of what do we classify as operating and what do we classify as financial we're going to focus on the overarching principles so once we rearrange asset we also have to rearrange liability so for liabilities we also look at operating liabilities versus financing liability a very important part here is that preferred stock is considered a financing liability the reason for that is we are looking at this as a from a common stock holder perspective so even though legally preferred stock is considered equity when we are doing the analysis we include preferred stock as part of financing liability and therefore when we talk about equity in this sense we are talking about only common equity so you'll see me use the term equity throughout the rest of this chapter uh in when when i meant by equity is really common equity and we can reformulate um this into a new arrangement to help us better understand the relationship between operating assets um financing obligations and common equity so we're going to start with our basic arrangement which is ss equals liability plus equity but now notice that instead of assets we can have two we can have operating asset plus financial assets so i'm gonna substitute this in here i'm gonna use some abbreviations so operating asset plus financial asset so i'm replacing asset here with oa which is operating assets and fa which is financial asset so we have the left hand side and we know that this is equal to liability plus equity but instead of liability i'm gonna put in operating liability and financing liability so liability will be ol which is operating liability plus financing liability so fl and then lastly we have equity and equity once again is just common equity and we can rearrange this so we can put all the things has to do with operating on one side and all the things that have to do with financing on the other side so moving operating liability we have operating asset minus operating liability so that's putting all the operating uh asset and liability on the left-hand side and then we have financial liability minus so when we move financial asset that becomes negative minus financial asset plus common equity so now we have operating on one side and then financing on the other side so by reformulating on the left hand side we define this as net operating asset which is operating asset minus operating liability and then on the right hand side we have net financing obligation which is financial liability minus financial asset and of course our net operating asset so over here is equal to our net financing obligation plus common equity so this is how the reformulation comes from now let's take a look um in more details in terms of what do we put into operating access and operating liability so remember net operating asset is operating assets minus operating liability so things that go into operating assets are mostly current assets but we also want uh but there are other items that are less common so cash accounts receivable prepaid prepaid expenses prepay assets inventory these are your typical current assets but anything that we use for the day-to-day operation of the firm are also included in there so property plant and equipment right of use of assets so this if you're you have leasehold you're paying for at least to use a piece of land for example uh or a patent all those will be part of your operating asset as well intangible assets so again that will include um patents and so forth another thing that may be less common is deferred income tax assets so this uh income tax that you you have um available to use um and then also other assets and liability for operating liabilities we'll include a lot of the current accounts so that will be accounts payable account accrue liabilities and other current liability now notice that long-term debt and current portion of long-term debt is not included in operating liabilities because those are considered financing but we will include pension access and liability as well as deferred income tax liabilities so deferred income tax assets will go under operating asset different income tax liability will go under operating liabilities this is a relative comprehensive list but again the principle is whether or not something is used for the day-to-day operation of the firm now let's take a look at financing so to get to compute net financing obligation we have financing liabilities financing assets so financing liability we include short-term and long-term debt so again um any current current portion of long-term debt will be included here as well excess cash so again this is um cash over and about what we need for transactional purposes non-operating lease liability so again if it's an operating lease that goes under operating liability but if it's a non-operating lease then you go under net financing obligation and as we mentioned earlier prefer equity preferred stock is considered part of our financing liabilities financial assets include cash so um so if this is if you have some sinking funds for your debt then those will be considered financial assets because that is related to financing is related to debt on any non-controlling interest so again those are financing because their non-controlling is not part of the day-to-day um activities um sinking funds already mentioned that and also investment securities for financial purposes so this is not operation in addition to the balance sheet we also need to reformulate the income statement for the same principles so what we do is for each item on the income statement we need to separate whether or not it is operating or financing so typically if you have a financial asset or financial liability that has a corresponding flow amount so for example interest income or interest expense those will be considered financing flow instead of operating for the other thing remember is that financing uh preferred stock is considered a financing uh liability so therefore preferred dividend and any income that is attributed to non-controlling interest is also can i also consider a financing cost what we want to generate by reformulating the income statement is net operating profit after tax so notepad um so net operating profit after tax should contain only operating but no and no financing components obviously these are not gap so we are rearranging and and both on both financial statements income statement and balance sheet in a way that enable us to do then to do the analysis that will give us the information we are looking for so you are going to see formulation of the income statements that are somewhat unconventional or different from what you have seen in a typical accounting class these are more common you see this formulation very commonly in finance classes the reason why we want to do that why do we want to separate operating from financing is to highlight the trade-off between risk and return so some of the ratios that we're going to compute include operating roi and that is defined as net income net operating profit after tax so no pet divided by net operating assets operating roa has a very important characteristic is that it is absolutely unaffected by how the firm finances capital structure so independent of whether a firm uses debt versus equity preferred stock versus common stock that would not affect operating roa we can disaggregate operating ra the same way we have done in regular roa so we can separate into the operating profit margin and net operating asset turnover so what we are changing here is instead of profit margin we have operating and instead of just asset turnover we have operating asset turnover so of course operating profit margin means we are using notepad as our measure of profitability and for the turnover we use net operating asset as our measure of assets so again very similar just a different measure of profit profitability a different measure of asset the focus here is on operating we also can then relate roe return to equity and of course return on equity here we're talking about return on common equity into is component so typically roe is net income available to common stock holders so cs is common shareholders uh divided by common equity so once again when we when i refer to equity i mean common equity here we can disaggregate the same way we have seen before the three components uh profit margin turnover and equity multiplier so because we are working with operating so we're gonna use um so we have net income to come in start holders divided by sales um and then sales divided by total asset and total asset dividend common equity so this is similar to what we have seen before we can also replace this with operating components so if we have reformulated our balance sheet and our income statement then we can also look at our yi as a function of operating roa which is what we computed up here and a different um definition of leverage so in the past we defined equity equity multiplier as a measure of leverage another way we can define leverage is debt to equity ratio so these e is equity and then um here the spread here represents the difference in return i'll go into this in the next um fuel line so debt to equity ratio is defined as net financing obligation so this is the reformulated definition of of liability divided by common equity and the spread here is the difference between operating roa and a net borrowing rate and the way we define net borrowing rate is we take after tax net financing expenses so remember in our reformulated income statement we have um all the financing income and financing expenses separated out so those are net financing expenses so they'll be in financing income minus financing expenses on an after-tax basis and divide that by net financing obligations so what this formulation does is it shows it shows us that the more leverage we use and as long as our spread meaning that our operating roa this is our return net borrowing rate you can think of is a cost as long as our return is greater than our cost then the height the more leverage you use the higher will be your roe return on equity so roa operating roa is on leverage meaning this does not take into account any leverage of the return that you can generate on your operating asset debt to equity ratio or financing obligation to common equity ratio this is a leverage measure so the more leverage you use provided that you have a positive spread you can increase your re so but of course the use of leverage increases the risk so higher the risk higher the return and if you have a negative operating rate so you're losing money and of course most of the time you still have to pay interest then this will greatly decrease your roe as well so this is a magnifier so if you if your spread if you happen to your return is even if your operating rate is positive but if it is less than your borrowing rate then use of leverage can also jeopardize your roe so here we see that when times are good meaning when your operating roa is high the use of leverage will magnify um your roe but when times are poor and your spread is negative then the use of leverage is going to reduce your roe we're going to end the video here in the next video we're gonna go over an extended example showing you how to reformulate uh the financial statements as well as computing these ratios see you soon

ladies and gentleman this is Adam Koch is here with my friend Mir one at an Acapulco and I got to say just as a way of introduction on Instagram yes I'm on Instagram I have Alert set up for my family members so when my family members post I get it I get it like a text message there are also three artists that I include in that priority for me that I want to be connected with because their art enriches my life and miR one is one of them and he is at mir m e AR underscore one on instagram please follow him set up alerts the other one is art of jph who happens to be right there behind us and he happens to be painting what painting me at the moment which is it which is like this is like an inception interview right so we're gonna get him next on camera but mir one you know he was here last year and so is so is Jay pH and he was doing these these amazing murals and and what I was able to get is a sense that there's there's an immense amount of of passion in your art like it's not just beautiful it's not just I got a message but like there there's a sense of something deeper that comes through on that and as I'm inviting everybody here to bring something into the conversation that we don't normally talk about you know I challenge Mir with this and and I know this isn't totally out of the conversation for him in fact it's it's one of the things that I think he really brings into this conversation that is a good contribution because he's an anarchist and he's concerned about the environment and one of his paintings that was really touching to me is garbage island and it's just stunning and in the the power of it you can tell that there's that not emotion not thought but there really is a you know a spirituality of passion and activism behind your art so if you can tell us what is what is this concern why is this something that you think is a priority and how would you invite being people in this in the anarchist community to maybe think about it differently yeah you know it's like you know I was I'm always putting like chemtrails and stuff in my art and I'm describing things that exists in our world that we're unaware of and there's just so much of it that's geared towards harming us the new cellular technology they're installing which is super high-powered to our gas meters to our smart frigerators and all this stuff that are sending out pulses who knows what it's really doing to our DNA and what what's what's what's what it's doing to the world around us the the bees the birds these animals that help our food system grow and you know it got me thinking recently even to a deeper level of how am i contributing to this problem and got me thinking about things just as simple as when I go out and purchase some food to take home because I want to eat I'm busy working I'm buying stuff that's in styrofoam it's not even good for me but I'm just throwing it away and you know I could be taking a Pyrex Bowl and offering this restaurant an opportunity to save cost for them save the planet and and and things like that you know and I'm I'm going around I'm seeing everywhere you know cigarette butts on the ground still I'm seeing I live in Los Angeles and Hollywood you know home smog in cars and you know my house is always getting full of particulate matter I wipe it down we clean it up you called it dust but it's not really like the way we think of dust is a natural phenomenon yeah it's like a freeway freeway regrind or something it's like tire it's it's combustion it's it is so much it's death it's just blowing death and you know when I lived in LA I wasn't that close to downtown I was I was even closer I was only a few miles from the ocean on the Santa Monica side still in LA city limits but it was just it was gross I mean I wouldn't you don't even you really can't you live in a cloud of smog dust well like I would go hose down my house and it's like black streaks cuz you don't even know that there's a great film on it it's like I when you stop and think about it sometimes you know I'm very fortunate to live now in Arizona where I'm out of the way and I'm really in touch with nature there and I'm you know surrounded by nobody else's garbage is going to bother me but in LA like I said you have trash blowing around and I'm a part of me like it wants us how do we put up with this you know I mean I was in the Marines my standards a little more anal than the average person you know we go and pick up every cigarette butt on base police call but even just like the basic I mean like you're telling saying when you when you when you when you confront people about this because you're not trying to confront them but you can't raise it without without it without them taking it as a confrontation and it's core it has an undeniable nature as a confrontation say hey let's let's maintain the value of this shared natural resource we call earth totally and it's like you know wherever I go I went out to Hawaii recently for my first time and I saw a place where very little trash existed and I was blown away that this actually was still on our planet that you could still go somewhere and see something I painted a mural there but everywhere you go there's rivers that come out of the highlands and at the bottom was that where they reached through the ocean there's just tons of just the filthiest soupy human garbage you could imagine and we all see it and it's just that's it's us that's doing it to ourselves at this point and you know there's an artist I'm I'm always trying to articulate what is what is the underlying truth what is the substructure beneath this theatrical environment taking place and what are the what are the fundamental things that we're not paying attention to so you know that's why that's why I'm doing stuff like this drawing attention to narratives important narratives that communicate you know consciousness to people that's what's lacking you know you you go and tell someone in a very polite way hey bro I saw you just flick that cigarette into the curb right there and as soon as the wind blows the rain come the rains come it's going into our ocean into a seagull or turtle and you need them you need them to live we're not separate we're all one and you know I mean I don't get that deep of someone in the moment I'd like to I mean when I know we're one you can't do that you know but no it's like but but before you can even get too deep with them they're already cussing you out and you know telling you off and telling you you self-righteous they're ready to pick a fight and you know it's just generally not cool to go up to someone and tell them this and it's you know social so socially cool to go up and tell someone pick up your trash be responsible for your own stuff and that needs to change to where where everyone becomes aware of their connection and that's it's sad the you know history our current situation politics and just the human dilemma has got us to the point where we can't even communicate like our family you know like we're a species we're so separated part of my you know how do I blame the government for this thinking is you know when you when you talk to someone and you say and you're trying to call them to account like hey you just you just like the cigarette on the ground dude I don't appreciate that you know I'm even as simple as that you know there is an inherent conflict and I think in the in the mind of at least the average American there is this thought well what we pay for the government to take care of big problems we don't have to worry about big problems and of course my cigarettes nothing and and I'd like to think that part of what the transition that we're going through now of realizing freedom for Humanity one thing that libertarians don't talk about enough is that inherent to the right to self ownership is the right to homestead right you have a right to homestead you have a right to claim that a part of the natural environment you want to trash your own little corner of it that you're where you're not affecting anybody else okay yeah if you yeah I'm out of respect for your private property you know if you're like if you're if you're truly containing it right you're not affecting anybody else but the thing that people don't talk about enough is that if you have a right to homestead it means that it is inherent in your right as a human being to have an equitable access to nach resources and when when you trash something else you're infringing on your rights you know and that's something that I think we still need to develop the mechanisms and the culture of holding people accountable like I don't want someone to get $100 ticket for throwing a cigarette butt on the ground but I kind of want that to go into their reputation capital accounting somehow I want them you know to to be accountable for that well is there something to that or are we just gonna have to wait it's a voluntary Society because you're an anarchist you know you you have to have a free market solution to this right even if that free market solution is a spiritual awakening or that's definitely not a government solution but is there is there some mechanism perhaps that that you look forward to that you think would help shift or hold individual polluters accountable well definitely learning about how are they truly connected because the system's lied to them for so long they can't even imagine that we're 99.999999% empty space and everything else is - they can't put that theoretical physical scientific understanding to use for them it doesn't work it's like everything is solid it's permanent you know until they're dead but you know and they don't they don't understand that there is you know that we have microsomes inside of us and we're inside of a macro zone which is inside of a greater one inside of a great - think in these ideas is he is natural I think and we're living in an unnatural state we're thinking that way you get criticized you're told that maybe how can that make money you're you're useless to me you know and that's so sad you know I mean I even take it to extremes sometimes I like thinking a lot and one of them is like the idea that boy so everything that we have has been made for us to purchase from these these makers who been taking from the earth and it's not theirs to take and this is like Native American knowledge right here and Tibetan all the ancient cultures knew this but you know I think we hear that and it sounds like a fairy tale or a fantasy story to think of things in that way like we live in such a materialistic reality that that is like threatening your family or threatening your paycheck to even think that way and that's another layer of how sad it is that the human mind is being restricted from really going there you know this is a Star Trek oh my god arthur c clarke was it I think or was he the one who worked in 2001 anyways these great writers were allowed to let their minds think so far out that aren't then our technology is trying to catch up with the with their minds right now and and none of these writers in their ideas of the future did anyone have a job and was paying taxes and you know picking up you know we're all so prosperous and big you know what I mean like everyone was like self accountable responsible reliable and just amazing and that's who we should be already you know we've had hundreds of years of literature and stories and thousands of years of stories and mythology that all you know point towards that hero towards that divine that deity that one that yeah the unity and connection you know that all of these great stories all lead to a theme these morals you know like the Odyssey or you know any of these stories so yeah that's that's where I've been taking my thoughts lately thinking about materialism thinking about responsibilities with materialism and yeah it'd be fair to say that we have to elevate the consciousness first to demand the mechanisms if mechanisms are even needed at that point to address what are really ultimately very petty environmental issues right if we have to make demands because the consciousness isn't moving if the consciousness moved there it would just naturally occur because we would be so natural we would be nature again but highly-advanced you know awoken not just you know bumbling around thrown stones it you know cavemen well it's beautiful how all of what all of what my friend mere saying here is incorporating it was artwork and I am I hope you'll check it out at mirror underscore one mea are tell people what is was me or stand for it stands for manifest energy and radiate there you go Mir one

Been around By Very Moody
[Music] i've been around the world no one can deny it talking about how crazy life gets maybe it's amazing to those on the outside and i admit this shit's incredible but there's always negatives it's inevitable for example where's my home no one knows i have no one to connect with no one to relate to everyone says my story is remarkable but i just want someone i can talk to who gets this lifestyle but not going well constantly moving around no foundation no ground work hard keeping relationships friends become found but a year later they lost of course the true ones always seem to stick but i can never create those memories like the other kids and it can get lonely knowing the person you trust with everything can be there in the physical so least to internalize it but i can't just call them i want them right here i want to feel the warmth i want to hear their heart see the soul and on the phone sorry but i can't get that i want them to look into my eyes and tell me there'll be better days i want them to look into my eyes and tell me that they're here to stay but i know those can't be made sorry lord knows that they can't be the one person that seemingly understood i pushed away why did i do that even now i can't understand my own thinking i'll never get them back that's the way of living yet every loss still sings seemingly the same i know the dramatic strengths i recognize my privilege getting nearly everything on my christmas list having exotic food while my dad's never home out on business but we got money so we're good i've been around the world and no one can deny it talking about how crazy life gets maybe it's amazing to those on the outside but you gotta admit that there's trouble there's always negatives man it's inevitable it's inevitable it's inevitable yeah look to be honest this lifestyle just isn't for everyone i mean i i wish every day that i can just have grown up in one place be born in one place be from one place and just be around the same people i grew up with but i know that's not possible anymore you know i'm stuck to this but you know i just hope sometimes that uh it didn't feel as lonely

Minecraft: Post Finem 19 - Cooking with Bees
hey guys and welcome back to the horrific leave it refined waste that is minecraft post finem will you come back and join me a very very auspicious moment if I could pull open my inventory we have two minutes 11 seconds until this uranium decides to whatever it does decay anyway so it's time to talk about some other things first off look at my extravagant dirt floors you know how hard it was to make this stuff also to dig up the Obsidian fact I'm not gonna do that on camera I'll carry on doing that off camera but yeah that this this is how to come by i had to make this I've also as you know swiped out a smooth nice area for my fees so if we just make sure these guys can go unfortunately I have been reminded that these be houses not the best for mutating bees why I actually need and I keep pressing the wrong quito from my inventory so i hope you will forgive me is the a pari now the AP should be relatively easy to deal with like there's some slabs and there's some wood and there's some in pregnant it impregnated casing but what's this this is in a fabricator like a fabricator really what oh the less than a minute now why is a fabricator a bit of a weird thing well let's try and type in here and have a look fa be oh man we need a transistor which is all this stuff we need a microchip which is all this stuff we should have already some of these capacitors kicking around we should also have a machine shashi kicking around some still shouldn't be too hard and some iron shouldn't be at some redstone sorry shouldn't be too hard to get hold of so that should be relatively easy to do so we're going to go do that and put it inside the b-room here but we're going to wait 30 seconds so we're going to wander on over here talk about what my plans are for this area now i would like to get some sort of automatic turret defense on the side here if we look in the book will talk about that in a second there is this defense quest line where we got this all these turrets around the outside defensive turrets this one here disposable items so we can just throw stuff in there i'd like to get them mounted on top of a all those also whilst we are here why not there this extra lives rewards while just wandering around and building stuff I've managed to kill enough gas I'm gonna get this a benign clip and enough spiders again oh oh it happened it happened it reacted in to protract iam and we've got another two hours for that I it did actually give me a radiation boost though okay cool well I'm going to eat these hearts and come back with the fabricator and so the fabricator is in place but we're not done now oh no no if I draw and put this jungle wood around here it's gonna be like oh we haven't got a recipe for this mate if we ever look in the a pre thing here we can see that if we go to the impregnated cating there is seed oil needed now where'd you get seed oil from you can either transpose it from a seed canister which kind of you know the okay if suppose but you need to get it to get it in the canister so we need a squeezer I think we can just about manage building a squeezer do you know why because I may have oh I didn't bring a workbench here I may have brought some of the bits with me to make one so let's just quickly do this I'm going to just throw this in the corner here look at this building up the look at the room as we go now I believe first we need one of these tough old casings here the sturdy casing okay great then we put the tin oil at in on either side and glasses bomb squeezer yeah look that up before we're before we got going because you know that's the sort of thing I do okay that's all in place now i am going to power this up while we talk about what type of seeds i can use now normally we'd be using things like walnut seeds and stuff like that but I don't have anything of that ilk at the moment so we're gonna have to go have a look at my seed room and see what we can use to make just a little bit just a little bit of sea de loup now having quick look we've got all these wheat seeds so I think I'm gonna know I didn't want to pull those out like that I think we're just gonna pull those and let's go see what they do shall we I'll be honest when I was planning this I was kind of hoping we could use some of the wax or the honeycomb or maybe like some some honey too now the squeezer but no no no that's not the way it's going to work so if we put this in here this should now start producing some stuff now believe this is gonna put it out into a bucket here oil so now how do we get this to be enough to transfer across we didn't need like a fluid pipe out me already my tiny little area is becoming a little bit over overflowing this one extracts and we're going to extract without a signal and that's going to put it straight into here right seed oil there we go and hopefully at some point we will get up to the point where this will work now I'm not sure how much seed oil it needs to use and I've got food we've probably already hit the thing no no quite okay I'm going to sit here and watch this until it actually does some stuff and then I'll come back and get excited with you guys potato is another resource with a lot of seeds I think we might need these as well all right that's 250 we have all the resources that we need and this is now pumping along this should be going beautifully where I'm just gonna crank up the clockwork mechanism a little bit longer are we now just waiting on this to get all the power oh wow that there's gonna be long then I think we might need another one of these clockwork things or maybe something that pumps out just a little bit more power because unfortunately these two are now sharing so now we're gonna let that roll we're gonna let that roll finally it's ready to go can I click it no it's got a full full line go on give it to me there we go we've got our full impregnated casing so to make this I think the one thing one of the things we need is three slabs across the top we also want to put this in the middle and all these around the outside and that gives us our first a pari woohoo I am gonna go and replace this one here I think yes we're gonna do this I'm gonna pop the a pre down there i am going to if i can grab one of these water drones that i noticed we have an excess of and inside one of these where mutations can take place we're gonna do this Rocky princess and water drone this should eventually lead to what I believe will be a common drone so as time has been moving on I've been building up a lot of bio waste here that I really need to try and get rid of thankfully one of the allows us to do this we need that now it's gonna take a little bit of building to make happen also a little bit of typing it turns out and the VAT as I say take some building these fluid tanks need to be done this machine chassis needs to be made which is all sorts of troubles and their coldren and stuff like that so I happen to have made an absolute butt load of iron here because we are overflowing something I need to really show you guys we come into the secret door here whiffle where we are full we've got all the copper and tin we can possibly take looks like sulfur is also full I can also tell you iron was full but I don't think that's so much the case now no indeed I have emptied it out so I'm going to try and make this fat the first thing we need to do obviously get that cauldron on the go there was also some deep down building to be made so the machine frame here needs at in gear some iron okay let's see what else we need to make this work for bits of glass so hopefully now with all these bits in place we should be able to come in here aluminium ingots these are something we need to make good to see that they've been spelled correctly yeah okay so let's just put this together quickly was it around the corners I couldn't quite remember one there one there I suppose we will find out as we put them in no of course not click click click click okay so that's that one done what's the next one on our list we needed to fluid tanks could we do that awesome i only want to brilliant thank you let's take all these away okay next thing we must be getting close right we must be getting close I do not have any Kabul that that's a little bit annoying don't forget the aluminium we're gonna do this here I don't actually have a room to get 16 out so let's do this like so everything should work out perfectly well good good all these thank you um for was it just for we need I think it was just for we need one two three four then we'll have the machine frame in the middle and then was a glass or was it iron bars I think might be nine bars air was iron bars okay there we go brilliant Oh getting really really warm in the corner here really warm in the corner we still don't quite have enough to do that to fluid tanks machine sat chassis it might be the cauldron we're missing that okay well then let's try putting them in individually and see what it is we're missing and was it then iron around the outside while we done wrong aight electrical still look at that I completely misread it we need some silicon charcoal powder and iron we can make the silicon from pulverized glass in a sag mill silicon there we go 16 bits will give us what we need ok silicon wafers that is one of the first bits we need to do so we'll put the silicon there and we'll put the iron in there now we should have some charcoal powder right here ok brilliant wonderful and the best there is a spider outside trying to eat my face on gonna go sleep whilst that cooks bonus fight time this spider just will not give leave me alone there we go got some string yay strings always useful right then I went but gonna wear but it will be useful is he following me he is let's try and get him as well hey come on died I thought wow he's tough and then he's heavy well there we go ok brilliant job done that should now be sleepy times and with this still is she taking care of the van buh-buh-buh-buh now if I understand this correctly and I might not because I've not looked up anywhere about this other than yeah just taking taking a guess from what we've seen I should be able to take these things out there and just pop them straight in there is this the thing this is a thing do we need to provide a power source I'm not sure exactly how this works oh man there's gonna be something here somewhere nutrient distillation is what we're after I think that's what we're after anyway there should be something here we need to put nether wart sin with it okay that's a thing or some mushroom there is definitely need for water ok let's try and put some water in it no we can't do that down by output tank tump input tank I just want to want to put some water indirect and we can do it like this yes okay so that's done that let's go and grab some more water we're gonna have to feed that in with a regular source of water and I do actually have a whole bunch of mushrooms and rotten flesh okay so that's the output tank the next thing is we need some some burning stuff is it I don't know as I say I'm still just trying to figure this out could put these in here do we need to actually set fire underneath it is that a proper thing give me a sec I'm going to go away and try and figure out how this works and I will be back so of course the thing that was missing was power so this is now mulching down my rotten flesh and my sugar into nutrient distribution which i'm not sure what i'm going to be using for but there will be something I you so we get the VAT potato and sugar are coming my way that's all for making hooch but we're going to get this portable tank because that just seems like the best plan to get okay there are some other things to do like when we built the fabricator we got this now we're going to get some resin and some solder now these two things are incredibly easy to make the resin is just compressed wood well it's what comes out of the squeezer when you compress wood and solder is lead Anton and if there is one thing let me let me show you tin here we are maxed out of and led just below it and it left a little bit short but you know with we're not gonna run out of those two anytime soon so I'm actually gonna go for the half heart the reason being well we're gonna have to try and get rid of everything here let me just go and put this sugar in there there now I'll make things a little bit better the reason I took the half eyes because in here I never have another half heart and hopefully we can put them together and bomb extra life doing well doing very well let's have a look current ID nine times but we have five hearts so we should be okay one last thing did you guys see this quest when we did the berbee box no neither did I either but when we made the a pari we get this a procession I'm gonna get Oh diamond door never hive diamond door there I'm gonna get the nether hive because it seems like the harder thing to get hold of ok brilliant now when they opened up the Eliza's these are things were going to need if we're going to do anything with the bees at all anything useful anyway look a common princess oh man we could have got a fast-tracked our way here now the reason I say this is if we put the lasers in here no let's just go with that then it takes a diamond diamond to do a both of them now I know we could have just claimed a diamond but we've got to hear oh man I'm so full of stuff that we're gonna have to try and saw that out so we got to hear I will definitely be making use of those diamonds to make that but first I think the first thing we need to do is get out scoop here now this could lead to all sorts of trouble I'm really not sure what's going to happen if we just pop that there now break it we got the 2 b's that they're after yes awesome so I'm going to take this a for his chest we're gonna go over to my be be shed I suppose it's a be shed isn't it night is approaching so we're gonna have to be quick about it and I'm gonna put down our be chest on this side I think look at this perfect and in here we're gonna pop these bees tells us all sorts of stuff we're gonna read the Eliza's and figure out exactly what everything means brilliant oh well look at this okay Everett no one knows anything about anything at the moment species 2 out 161 wow we have got some work to do here ok I'll go go tidy up my inventory and things like that I just wanted to show you guys like this massive spurt of progress we have made through the bot book we gather today in the newly expanded graveyard to mark the passing of meat clone 4729 He gave His life expanding the base floor pattern for the skit that follows next hi hi hi hi I well-coached which is kitchen today brought to you by the need to get something done other than bees in this episode filmed live at the meat clone for 275 memorial kitchen as you know we hear twitches kitchen all about trying to help people get through this apocalyptic wasteland we find ourselves in and I received the letter today from one mrs. cold worth out in the desert wastes she was asking about something simple she could make to impress her friends mrs. cold worth I have got a recipe for you all these fresh organic ingredients should be locally sourced that yukos's zombie pack in the wastelands mushrooms carrots potatoes and of course the bony remains of your fallen enemy so what we're gonna need you to do mrs. cole's worth is take your cooking pot and place it upon the stove then throw in one or two of the bones that we asked you to get earlier boil it up and make yourself a delicious stock of your enemies now giving that stock in your pot mrs. cole's worth we're going to add some potato some carrots and most people could stop here and make a delicious garden soup but weird twit cheese kitchen like to elevate our food to the next level so BAM we're adding some mushrooms and there we have it mr. Cole's worth apocalyptic soup for your friends to enjoy well that was amusing so I basically did all of that like all of this wish I'd done the ceiling etching our think about it so that we could come in here and go look I did all these tools here it was all relatively simple just stone and stuff to put together now I have just realized yeah whilst this is all great I don't think I've got any room in my inventory I've got a little bit right away okay we can do to these okay so really ate cookies Blockheads cooking oven sink and fridge all to go in here obviously does that take up one two three footnote and then I get to pick one of these now we've got the fridge sink cooking oven and thing as I said well do we want the block of iron which I actually have a lot of access to I'm gonna go for the freezer so we've got a whole load of stuff here that needs to be put away but first I would like to have a look at this cooking for Blockheads because I have not seen anything select an item on the right to see its recipe so is this all the stuff that I can cook right now given what I've got on me it is oh man all right who needs a cookery show oh wow will you look at this I'm confused I hear that fresh water gives one bucket gives you fresh water by here for bucket one bucket gives you full of fresh water I'm not sure what's supposed to be going on here actually no they look exactly the same hey wait that's enough of that something else I wanted to show you these here I hang about let me put some stuff away I've ended up with a whole load of stuff in my inventory from doing this we will move these around a lot even got rotten food in here we will put all that kitchen equipment out at some point if I broken my leggings I how annoying I have actually broken my leggings let's put these potatoes in here mushroom as well we will come back and deal with all that stuff but I way to show you that I have made these why these these are sweet potato it's a new thing on our on our line but we were told to go and make it if we come back out one here sweet potato pie we can get some more sweet potatoes we can get some Oh candied sweet potato sweet potato pie I'm not sure exactly what's gonna go best there so we're good for the heart awesome and now as the hypothermia has set in I am going to take a small moment to break foot sorting my inventory out I think we're going to come back and go make the beer lies at realizer and possibly wrap it up so in the fabricator we're building at réaliser and we have all the stuff for the beer liza set up one thing that i did have to do was set this to pull out the the seed oil that we had in there I was hoping it could go back in the seat squeezer but obviously this is not a direction that things like to go coming in here we are very nearly got all the power we need let's just keep going with this as I said last time really do need a second second power system here so this is how we make the tree Eliza once again gotta wait that last second now the beer Liza it just means we need a different type of material around the outside there and this is going to take its time as well now what do we use the tree Eliza for this is for observing saplings and stuff like that so let's go and find a sapling and she wish I'd done this the other way round now that I think about it the doing the bees first would have probably been a good mark okay we're going to start with this rubber sapling or the oak sadly i'm not sure if the rubber sapling will work that's why I've changed my mind at that last second there now hopefully in the tree Eliza we should be able to do this our and it needs some honey honey drops in fact this is one thing I forgot all about I have used these before so I do roughly know what I'm doing but when I say I've used these before it was a long time ago okay so let's get some honey drops out of here and possibly waste them so we pop one of those up there so let's start with the birch sapling boom as you can see there are two parts to every tree almost like like human genetics where you've got recessive and dominant traits well this is this one this is the dominant and this is the recessive traits it's pretty nice actually we've not done any breeding so we know that we're not going to get anything serious out but you can see there's all sorts of stats for each tree know how many saplings it cut puts out how fast the saplings mature how big the trees are going to be how big you need to put them down you know like the jungles you need to do a two by two well obviously apple oak you only need to do one by one the yield and sappiness yeah how many apples you get well how much SAP I don't know if you get I don't know what you get the sap from that's a new thing for me fireproof and what special effects you get none let's have a look at the I won't do the rubber there we go that there we go I thought that was going to be the case alright so in here we should start to be getting the beer Liza more a little way off let's pump this up to maximum again the thing with these clockwork engines is every time that this piston gets to the top that's when it pushes out a little it looks like I'm rhyming with it pulling it pulling it oh yeah yeah every time they get to the top is when it pumps out the power you can see it goes faster when it's on the red stage than it is on the yellow stage so I always try and keep it at the red stage Bob see if you bout pump it up too much it would blow up and take up this entire corner here so I don't want to do that ok we have a beer Liza now now this is the bit that I really really wanted to get my face stuck into I'm going to take half the honey drops in fact I'm going to put them straight in there that's where they belong and I'm gonna come and have a look at these not quite done yet oh no we are done yet here that's that's the thing now these are watery drones they started off as common nice they started as water and then I put common into it you can see how we've got the inactive common here flower type rocks flowers see now this is one of the things that oh hey I want that this is one of the things that this was complaining about oh not now it will say that there weren't any flowers around when I put it in there we go no flowers so obviously we need to put some actual flowers down to make this make this work it's nice to know what's going on with our queen territory nine by six by nine okay this is good this is good okay so let's try and make this all good by putting some flowers down next to it funny enough I have some flowers Sophie love you eagle eyed people out there would notice that I'm still running around the triglyceride on my bar despite having done all that cooking stuff underneath and you might be wondering why and this is of course a valid question first off well-done to you people that noticed yeah well done secondly well this the triglycerides are great for running around in my own base because obviously it kind of I worked through all the saturation but I'm close enough to everything that I can just top it up again whereas when I'm mining and stuff like that I need a proper food source on the go because i'm down mining for a long time the triglyceride the saturation could wear out and then i need to work on my actual food bar and the jug the triglycerides don't even touch that okay so we've got some flowers here let's pop that downed reckon that's gonna make it work almost straight away I do but it kind of hopes I don't know if that drone needs to be in there doesn't because Queens you add the drones to the printer to the princess is to get a queen so if you got a queen you don't need to add a drone and straight away you can see that it's working because the flower got put down that's amazing i got the flowers by the way by you see my little patch of grass you can see it on my radar but my little patch of grass over there I just bone milled it and got a load of poppies and don't bandy lines and stuff like that i'm wondering why my framerate keeps dying around here must be something to do with the bees okay well then what I will try to do is wrap it up very shortly I'm going to say that in here look I've even had to close it down though that closed down the game and open it back up again trying to get the framerate bein here we got the Eliza's we've done both of those we're gonna take the honey drop I might want to common princess I'm not sure if I want the princess or the pollen but I'm gonna go with the princess despite the fact that I am actually working my way towards that but there we go and with that i am gonna say thank you very much for joining for this adventure guys i will see you next time we're hopefully i would have figured out why i'm only getting five frames per second in this area I think it's something to do with the bees but I'll see you then when we're gonna do that oh well look at the frames but I

Hoga Update
hey YouTube Brian here again just doing a little update for you on the Hulk illumiroom tank last time I showed them to you I think I was thinking that they were possibly getting ready to spawn again we were seeing some behavior as you can see things have changed since then we got a divider back in the tank now um mr. el guapo over here the mail he's just overly excited about mating I think and was trying to force her into spining just continuously was rough with her and it was never too bad and then earlier this week it got to a point where he was really if you would have seen her on I think it was tuesday or monday she's really healed up a lot her fins were just in bad shape she just looked just I don't know how to explain it but just crappy started wondering if you know maybe maybe she's gonna catch something because of it you know with all the high stress and everything but she's doing a lot better now since I've divided them they haven't been really at the divider ever I'm flirting with each other or anything like that I gave her the side with the flower pod um she's eating just fine let her heal up and then I'll pull the divider and see how things go you know they're they're mating colors she was all colored up nice looking like the look looking like it was time to spawn and then that they didn't and then the kind of worker she he was kind of rough on her for a while and then next thing you know they're hanging out right next to each other all day and kind of showing spawning behavior again and then it it just went the other direction again I think what it is is he's probably you know ready and she's not quite ready and then he gets frustrated and he's trying to you know nudge her into it but he's just getting way too rough with her so you can see the colors are way washed out now that i've divided I'm really really a huge change kind of went from the goldish color to the more grayish silverish color which is still cool too but they're drawing on this guy especially he's he's putting on some he's putting on some length and some girth and everything here I haven't took in him on measured him but he's I'd say eight inches nine inches real nice vintage going on as far as his trailer up there um she's not growing as fast but she's gonna obviously be smaller anyway she's a female so but yeah that's what's going on with these guys I just wanted to keep I've had a few people asking if they've spawned that type of thing I'm so this is the latest still not going to give up it's going to happen having real fun rial keeping these fish there they're just great fish just you know real fun to keep and it's just a little minor setback no biggie so so yeah that's what's going on here that's all I got for you guys today make sure you go over to aquatic support systems and check out their facebook page make sure you check all the members of team aquatic support out put the other YouTube channels down below and check out the Hydra and the cichlid life on blogtalkradio also thanks for watching

How to Write Systematic Literature Review Paper for High Impact Factor Journals - Part 2
[Music] oh you [Music] oh [Music] uh [Music] so [Music] my [Music] yes [Music] so [Music] this is so good so oh so hello everyone thank you all for joining today um we will just get started in a minute [Music] all right um thank you all everyone who has come uh to attend the session the second session of this webinar series how to write a literature review paper uh for a high impact factor journal so this is me vidi podda uh if you are if you are attending this session uh my my webinar for the first time uh i would like to let you know that this is the second session of this series uh you can check out the first session that i ran that i conducted last sunday uh and link to that will be posted in this video description later on so uh this is a uh five series uh session webinar uh there'll be five different sessions running every sunday today is the second one and i will be taking you through all the uh all the steps required to write a good systematic literature review paper so i have broken down these sessions into five uh i have broken down this webinar into five sessions because uh the idea is that we will cover one section of your research paper in each of the sessions so last week we started off with abstract and we did a bit of introduction uh today we will uh work a little bit more on the introduction plus um move on to the core part of the second part of the paper which is how to write a syst how to write a literature review for a systematic literature review paper so this is sometimes confusing for people or young researchers so i will clarify that today and that would be the main theme of great session i need to show this disclaimer so i will not repeat it because i have mentioned it in the earlier videos okay so today's session is divided into three sections section one two and three and as you can see this is the layout or the order of the things that we will be doing today okay so i have reviewed the feedback that you gave thank you all very much by the way for giving such a fantastic feedback so based on the feedback i receive i have kind of introduced some uh topics in today's session to cover up what was what was suggested to me in the in the feedback so we will go through uh types of systematic literature review papers uh what are the main steps in doing literature review why do you need a literature review section in a systematic literature review paper uh do you need a new slr that is the first question that you have to ask before even venturing into doing this writing a paper so that is the that is going to be the first section the second section is going to be a number of case studies uh and the idea here is that the idea here is i want to show you a couple of uh case study a couple of systematic review papers and discuss the structure discuss their writing discuss some of the things that they have done which you could incorporate in your in your paper so that is the section two and the third section of this of today would be where you will apply the things that that are discussed in section one and section two to start writing your literature review paper so that is the overall layout for today's session so response to the feedback so overall i received i think 86 feedbacks uh from all of you so thank you very much for doing that i'm very glad to see some really positive feedback i was very surprised uh to read uh all your feedback and some i only highlighted some here uh those that uh that are that made me happy to be frank yeah so i really enjoyed reading your feedback uh there were some uh constructive comments as well in the feedback that you have given so i have so this the first column on this one is the feedback that you provided and this is my response to your feedback okay so there was some uh feedback on provide some more guidelines for introduction so we will do that today uh how to develop abstract and introduction before research so this was a bit confusing for some people but like i said in the last session uh abstract is an evolving document so you can start off with something that you have now and then progress and develop it as you go further how to review and what's important to review so we will cover this in section session three so not today on next sunday how to explain results better so this will be covered in the upcoming session so specif i think probably in the last last or the second last session time for audience questions uh so this was something this was very useful whoever gave this feedback thanks for that uh so i have added three q a slots in today's session 10 minutes each so you can ask the questions uh in those sessions and i will try to answer them what i would also recommend all of you is if you could ask those questions on the community website so that i can answer them if i do not get to finish all your questions in 10 minutes what happens is if you ask the question in the youtube chat uh it just disappears after a while and it is very difficult to find those uh chat questions questions from the chat so but if it is on the community it will be easier for me to find an answer content of the next session so i will share that on the community as well as i will show it today uh so there were some questions uh feedback on techniques and tools so database research to filter paper so how to use a database to filter papers i think we will do a bit of it this session uh but this today's will be limited to uh finding existing literature review papers that's that's how we will use the uh database research today uh in the next session we will do it more for finding the papers uh zotero related issues i think i cannot handle this one-on-one so i suggest you check out on youtube or connect with the people in the community and ask them for help i i'm i'm i'm i think they will definitely be there to help you out how to search good quality journal uh this can be done using shimago and i will i will see if i can cover this in today's session if not definitely in the session three uh assessing articles from different databases so i'll show you today web of science and scopus tools for graphs and charts yeah we will provide as we go comparative slr between two concepts uh this was the question which was quite interesting uh so i thought i mean if you really need to compare two different concepts and find out the study then you can definitely do this however it may also be interesting to do two separate slrs on those topics and if the comparison is not necessary uh software installation again similar similar thing uh try to use youtube or other resources feedback on session delivery uh some of you wanted it to be more hands-on so i have introduced some activities today uh practical examples this will be covered in the case studies that i have added in today's session uh pick some examples from humanities um i will try to do that um i think i have got one case today today which i have kind of i think it is from humanities i'm not really sure but if you suggest me something i'm happy to take that on examples of how to write paper will be doing this uh some of you said that it is a long session so i will today i will try to stick to three hours um and uh it the session is supposed to be long because uh the kind of content that i'm sharing with you uh it can't be done in any any quicker way but it is up to you uh to attend it at your own pace as well the videos are there on youtube for you to check it at a later later stage uh increase teaching speed uh yeah i will try to do that wherever possible and slow down whenever it is required because the intention is not to speed up things but my intention is for me to share what i know in at the right pace for that so that everyone can understand are you sharing with participants uh this will not be possible uh in this in this webinar but we will arrange special different sessions maybe after we complete this uh this series uh there was a question about privacy or confidentiality of your research so if you are not comfortable sharing your abstract or introduction please email me at contact vidipod.com i can i can have a look but i cannot guarantee that i will reply to all all your questions individually sessions on phd topics uh check out my youtube video where i have more than 10 videos i think on different aspects of phd minimum number of papers to cite i think we will cover this some aspect of this in today's session in the case studies word limit uh it depends upon different journals and conferences community registration issues yeah this has come up quite a lot and i think what has happened is because my domain name is new because my email address is new it does not have a strong reputation with the isps or internet service providers so many a time it is possible that the my email from the community has gone to your spam folder or if you are using gmail it may have gone to the promotions folder so please check there uh if you if you find that email and i'm i feel uh it is most like most likely that it will it has it would be there uh how can i reach you if i have some questions so i'm available uh on the community to help you with the best of my capability but yeah i also work full-time so i can only spare a limited amount of time but i'll try to best answer all possible queries that i can okay uh so the series that is the five sessions in total this is the outline of what is coming in the future i mean the future sessions so we will do advanced database search uh plagiarism management how to search good quality articles keyword selection strategy writing methodologies section synthesizing your literature analysis developing a knowledge map writing discussion and limitations writing future work and finishing your first draft of your systematic literature review so if you see the way these contents uh these the series is structured is for you for to take you through that whole process of uh writing a complete literature review paper so it is long uh because it this can't be done any quicker i think i mean if i try to do it any quicker uh the quality will definitely uh be will go down so if you can if you can spend this like it's only 15 hours over for over five weeks i think it is a reasonable time that you should commit for your for your research okay so this is the sections this is what we are going to start now and i want to keep a tap of my of my time so that i finish it on time so i've got a report record to keep here of how much i'm how much i'm progressing with okay so let's begin with section one so based on your feedback uh one of the things that some of you wanted was uh explain a little bit more about the systematic literature review uh so i'm going to do that now so systematic literature review papers there are many different types of systematic literature review papers as you can see in this in this slide so there are domain based reviews there are theory-based reviews method based reviews and meta analysis so it is in this session uh what my focus is my focus is going to be on structured reviews okay so later you can study these different types of reviews if you like uh some of them some papers i have published uh which belo which are kind of in these categories as well so you are happy to review those papers to get an understanding of what different types of papers are or look like so basically a structured review paper uh the objective of that review paper is to review the recent literature in a five year ten year period uh ten year span and come up with a categorization of literature or coming coming up with a knowledge map uh analyze the literature synthesize some new ideas and try to solve one or two research questions so that is a structured review there are other reviews which are called framework based reviews so two examples are here ado and 6w frameworks there are some papers that if you search with these keywords you may find them as well uh the third category is that of a bibliometric review and a bibliometric review is more quantitative so basically we will i we will do a very large uh search for papers in a specific field and we report a lot of uh quantitative information like how many papers were published in a specific area how many um where where are these authors from which countries which universities who are the leaders in this space so all that kind of information is identified and represented in a review paper in a bibliometric review paper so such review papers comprise a lot of graphs and beautiful charts and figures and network diagrams so it's also an interesting type of review but we are not doing this in this session uh in this series uh and then you have hybrid review so hybrid reviews is a mix of structured reviews what we are going to do plus a bibliometric review so normally such papers begin with bibliometric review uh but at a shorter scale are not not as detailed or thorough as just a bibliometric review paper uh and then they move on to a structured review uh next type of a paper is a theory based review others are method based review and meta analysis based review so i will not go through all of this in detail but the reason i put them here is for you to know that these types of papers exist and for you to do some research on your own if you are interested in these types of papers so for example i have this slide shows some of my papers which belong to these categories so i have a structured review paper for example which was recently published which is prosumer communities and relationships in smart bits a literature review evolution and future directions so for those who want to check this out check this paper out i want to give you some background information about this paper so you can assess that kind of quality that is possible in a given amount of time so this paper was done with my honors no not sorry my masters dissertation student so these are masters coursework students and they have one semester uh of research so this is a result of the work that was done over a three months period okay when you read through this article you will understand the uh the kind of depth or quality that is achievable in a uh three months time period uh similarly uh the next paper that was just recently accepted uh was uh accepted in a q1 journal decision support system in construction a bibliometric analysis so this is for those who want to see what is a bibliometric type of review next we have theory development reviews and what this means is we do literature review first after that based upon the literature review we come up with a theory a model or something that is based upon the findings of the literature so if you look at the first paper which is a process model for identifying online customer engagement patterns on facebook brand pages so this is a paper where we reviewed the literature this was reviewed not in the systematic review format but a traditional literature review but then based on that we came up with a theoretical model similarly the next paper is also similar literature review and a model at the third paper wireless sensor network transport protocol this was purely a uh literature review paper so if you want you can review these papers as we uh in the later on so that will give you an idea of what kind of work is possible i also found one paper this one which is called a typology of reviews an analysis of 14 review types and associated methodologies so this is not a open access paper so i cannot share the whole paper here but i have got the link here so of anyone who has access to wiley publisher you can download this paper and read this so it is a review article of different types of review articles that you can run okay uh i'm actually not looking uh if you have asking any questions or not but we will limit the uh uh take the questions later yeah as per the plan so now let's move on to the next uh part of this uh of this session which is uh systematic literature review main steps so again this is because of the feedback that i received from you all i have added this in today's session i found this very interesting article or a website from umd.edu you can see the link at the bottom here uh and this shows in a very interesting and uh uh graphical way what are the main steps in literature review so based upon these two things and based upon my own experience i have highlighted i have created these in blue the process basically you know what what what is uh what are the main steps in a systematic literature review so we begin with identifying a question and it could be as simple as creating a knowledge map for for your field or it could be a specific question like in my case uh what i want to study in this for this paper is the uh creative knowledge map of marketing and blockchain or advertising and blockchain uh after that so that is the first question then we decide what is the inclusion and exclusion criteria we and this is this is kind of a protocol that you have to uh that you have to decide uh on how you are going to conduct your research which papers you are going to include which you are going to exclude and why so that is the research protocol using this protocol then you search studies and then use the protocol to select the studies based upon that criteria so this is the these steps we will do in the next session which is uh next sunday extract data from studies using spreadsheet again in the future sessions we will cover this evaluate the risk of bias in selected studies present your results write your discussion and publish your work so basically those are the kind of steps broad steps when you can think in terms of a literature review paper so if you think from from your perspective or what authors do uh you begin here identify the issue write a plan for a review which is a protocol that is defining these things search for the studies shift and select studies based upon your your selection criteria or inclusion exclusion criteria extract data from studies assess the quality of studies combine the data which is synthesizing your literature discussions and conclusions and the outcome is a systematic review which you then disseminate in a in a journal or a conference from a layout of a systematic review so this is what you can see will be the uh the layout you start with an abstract title abstract plain language summary background so this is kind of what we started doing in the last session methods the one thing that is not mentioned here and many a times uh some authors prefer to include this in the introduction itself is uh what are the existing uh systematic review studies that are there in the literature but i prefer to keep it as a separate section uh and which is why i have dedicated this whole section session today on just that bit because that kind of helps you to uh justify the the the reason justify doing your systematic review then we move on to methods uh where we explain our systematic review methodology protocol research protocol including exclusion criteria do the search collect the data sift through the data and so on next phase is on the results where we describe the findings or critically analyze the literature and synthesize synthesize the literature and start and write up discussion future work does it say future work implications okay this one does not say uh a section on future work but uh traditionally a good literature review paper should at least have one third of the paper uh of future work because that is the also the main contribution of your literature review when when you do a systematic review there are many frameworks that you can apply uh some of you might be familiar with some common frameworks like pico and spider but in fact there are a number of different types of frameworks uh and which are suitable for different disciplines the reason i showed i'm showing this here is uh if you see the last column you can see that this if you are using this framework it could be used for this in this discipline or this depart this area so psychology management uh policy social work so uh these are some of the frameworks and these are the associated papers the link is here and i will also copy all these links that i'm using in this presentation in the youtube description so please do check that out for for it will be easy for you uh so there are some more like p e o p coder s e co pico fico plus and pi co pi iso picot pico profe spice spider wwh so there are many different types of frameworks that you can use while doing the study while doing your systematic literature review all right the next part and which is probably the important part for today's session is to understand why do you need a literature review section in your systematic literature review article okay so many a times uh yeah new researchers are kind of confused when i when when they hear that you need a literature review section in a literature review paper so let me break that down for you basically what we are looking for is when we want to start doing a new literature review paper we have to ensure that nobody has done a similar work in the past okay because we don't want to duplicate replicate or waste our own time doing a similar study which is already out there for people to review or or use in some disciplines like in medicine there is a proper protocol where you are required to register your systematic literature review before you begin so which means that if you are going to start your literature review you can go and check on this list to see if anyone is already doing uh a systematic review on that topic uh if they are doing it then you know you don't need to uh waste your time doing doing that because they have already registered and then they are going to do it but this is not the case in all other disciplines okay so it makes sense uh to search for existing systematic reviews in your discipline and find out what they have done okay so if i were to search blockchain uh and cyber security for example uh i i'm pretty sure that somebody would have done something on that topic but that does not mean that i cannot do it again so what you need to do in the literature review section of a literature review paper is to find out what they have done whether it is really good is it something that is missing from what they have done can you do it better can you broaden the scope of the research or narrow the scope of that research uh to pick up a small specific niche uh and do a review on that so when i when i when i made this slide i was thinking how would it be easier for you to understand this whole process so let's look at some of these questions so when you're thinking about the need for doing a systematic review ask this question first who else who else has published a systematic review in your discipline on a topic or on a problem that you are trying to work on so that is the first step this could be easily done using google scholar web of science scopus any other proquest any other database that you that you have access to or that you use what was their main question or questions so this is another way to distinguish your review compared to that of theirs so if if the domain is same if the area is same so whatever your topic so blockchain and cyber security if the topics are the same uh uh if the topics are the same uh the question is what can distinguish or differentiate your review from somebody uh from the existing review so look at the questions very carefully and in today's session during the case studies we will be doing this we will i have highlighted some uh literature reviews and picked up the questions from that so you can see and evaluate evaluate yourself how much literature did they cover okay so is it they covered 100 papers they covered 50 papers or did they cover 500 papers so that is also a distinguishing criteria that will distinguish your study compared to others how long how long ago was it conducted maybe it was conducted five years ago or ten years ago and in that time frame five to ten years the literature or that area has progressed quite a lot and that is a very good reason to take on uh do a review and finally a very subjective option is how thorough was it you know uh what was the quality of the of that review if you can assess the quality of that review and you realize that no i think i can do a better job than this uh then that could be another another reason as well so think very carefully uh before uh starting to write your literature review that these are some of the important things that you need to cover okay part four of today's session is do you need a new systematic literature review how to search databases for existing reviews in your field and evaluate the need and you can once you've done that you can uh store this information in excel so i will i will show that now okay so i'm going to play uh two videos one video that uh shows the process of doing uh this in using web of science and the another one using scopus so just give me one minute uh for to set this up to play these videos so how to search existing literature review papers i will show this um i would select the review papers which are 85 and refine them [Music] once i do that i can see those 85 results i can export them to excel you can select more records with records from 1285 and select new record click on small once you open the access blockchain there'll be a lot of buttons a lot of them are not very wide for us [Music] what we're interested in is at this stage mostly it's just the title of the paper because we want to ensure that if we are going to start running a little systematic literature review nobody has written a systematic review on that particular topic so that is the main reason to first download all the systematic materials the next one you want to do is search a specific keyword say marketing because previously we only searched very broadly on blockchain now we are searching to see something more specific if anything exists so when i search marketing as an extra keyword i get seven results and of those seven results that is talking about blockchain and marketing so what that gives me an idea is i can use that as a topic for my research now let's see some other features of that of science we can also new citation reports [Music] in a particular space so that would be something useful that you can report or mention in your systematic newspaper as well you can download this as an excel sheet and look at the results in more detail [Music] you can hear a lot of things are not really required so those that are required we can use it in our reports the next thing is how can we analyze these search results so there's a button called analyze results on web of science which you can use in here on the left side you can see a lot of categories like publication here document types organization funding agencies authors source titles and so on so whenever you click on any of these you can it shows you the results in this fashion for example publication years 2020 document types we have select only reviews organizations so this shows different universities we are doing research in this space source titles and with journals where these papers are published countries uh where the papers are published which countries in which languages these papers are published what are the main research areas and so on so that's all in web of science you can use all this information and include that in your paper thank you to search exists okay so i think you saw the web of science video there was some background music so i think i removed that now uh i hope that will not be an issue in the next one uh this video i'll probably also put it separately as an independent video on youtube itself uh for you to check it out basically what i wanted to show you in this is for you to search search the literature review papers from an existing from a database like web of science uh and how you can download that download that information but in the for the future reference also having a looking uh to look at the uh citation analysis uh option of a web of science could be helpful for you to put some kind of graphs or charts uh in your review paper which looks which looks quite interesting uh so now i want to play another video which is on which is on doing uh search on scopus so just give me one minute to set that up so this video actually i'm not speaking anything so it is just a video with the music and some notes on it so i'll have the background music [Music] playing [Music] time [Music] do [Music] my okay uh so that was the video on uh doing the search using scopus uh and what i wanted to show in that video is once you have downloaded the once you have downloaded the excel spreadsheet you can if if the results are too long you can filter those results and look for specific keywords such as survey literature review systematic uh and so on because many a times what may happen is if you although you search for a specific always although you select review articles when you filter the papers on scopus some papers may may come which may uh which may or may not be review articles so it is always a good practice to filter these and kind of see the results that you that you get in this case okay so i will uh open up the session four questions for 10 minutes so if you have any questions i suggest you post them on the community and i can check them so that i could i could answer your questions huh so okay so i'm starting to get few questions can somebody help me to copy these questions to the community for community as well so that if i don't answer them now i can at least answer them later uh okay so let me take questions now nice videos comprehensively covered the researching of different databases okay thanks henna jai sharma is asking can you can you difference between survey paper and literature review paper so i think what i covered uh i think i probably discussed this earlier as well is a survey paper or a literature review paper and a systematic literature review paper or a traditional literature review versus a systematic literature review the difference there we can think of a few differences one is that in a systematic literature review you publish your protocol of how you are going to find the papers from your literature from the from the existing literature whereas in a traditional literature review we do not specifically mention such a how we have selected papers it could be based upon the experience of the researchers but it is it can be kind of more subjective whereas in a systematic review it is more objective secondly uh so that is that is one one major difference between a survey paper and a literature traditional and a systematic literature review paper and the other thing is in a systematic review we we expect more than one author multiple authors uh to ensure the quality of the survey of the review whereas in traditional literature review this may or may not be the is not considered as a requirement but we still see people there are [Music] uh rashinda do i need to create an account to use web of science or scopus so these two platforms are not free platforms so if your university has access to it you can you will you can have it i don't know whether you can buy it personally as an individual user but most universities do have these platforms uh alternatively you can try proquest proquest allows you to search for information uh from their database but it is not very convenient to download that like select all and download relevant publications or citations so most of these things are not not free which is why in the last session in the first session i mentioned that my focus would be on google scholar because that is open to everyone is the same thing so for web of silence scopus you would need access to those platforms yeah you know i think we will be discussing more on the keyword selection strategy in the next session uh in today's session what i wanted to cover was if you are doing uh literature if you how you should identify existing literature review paper so the focus was on using the term literature review with your research area uh when we are going to your research question we will have a different keyword strategy which we will which i will discuss next sunday okay sati your question is while writing literature review paper i have to read all reference paper mentioned in the base paper while writing literature review i have to read all the reference paper uh no no you you're not not necessarily required to read all the papers in the reference list but if you think some of them are relevant and they catch your interest and they're interesting you you may read but when we begin a systematic review which we will cover more in the next session is how you can uh identify the relevant literature by reviewing title and abstract of the of these papers hilda asks are the papers that we analyze have to state in the list of references yes you would need to all the papers that you include in your systematic literature review should be listed have to be listed in your review in your reference list uh rodrik rodriguez asks can we can we use a mix of scientific articles and technical reports from international organizations yeah definitely you can and depending upon where you publish maybe first thing is to check with the journal whether they accept literature from other sources other than journals or not and i think like i mentioned in the last session if you do include non-academic literature it would be good to uh it would be good to make it in a separate section like a gray literature or something like that and that would be a way that in case the journal does not like the grey literature you could you can just remove that bit of your paper and audrey i think i remember reading your abstract that you wrote i think i checked it yesterday and it was really well written so congrats vinci uh your question can we use the same search strategy uh that has been done by another review for different research question yeah i think the search strategy is more or less similar i mean it is a process the only thing that kind of changes in the search strategy is your keyword combinations so the keywords you would have to come up using some of the frameworks that i mentioned earlier on or through your own knowledge within that within that area so there's no issue using uh using that uh jannat janatul your question is is it necessary to use theoretical framework in a systematic literature review so like i said uh today if you are using a structure review you don't really need to rely on a framework but if you're going to do a framework based review then you could use some of the existing frameworks within your within your area within your discipline okay i've got one more minute to take the questions and i'm taking this question from the community which is posted by bijou and the question is is it possible to have a free login id for scopus or web of science from outside the institution i was not able to get an id to search the literature yeah so video i'm really not sure because i was never in that situation where i had to look for an access because my university provides access to these services so i think it might be just a bit of a research for you to figure out whether that that is possible or not okay i think that was the only one question that was there on the community so those whose questions i could not take uh right now i would suggest you put that post that on the community and i can i'll get back to you uh get back to you on that all right so i think after this we will take a five minutes break and then we will we will begin again today i want to show you how to use the community using the mobile app to access the mobile app you need to download mighty networks from apple store or through play store once you download mikey networks search for our community video and join once you join the community you will see an interface like this here at the very bottom you can chat with other members in the community you can add a new post you can check your notifications to the bell icon and you can check your profile you can also add the post from up here i'll just do a sample post to show how this works once you've done that click post it will ask you whether you want to add a tag you can add many of the tags let's say let's add research [Music] and you can see the post is now live you can comment the post you can like the post the same thing can be done from here to the plus icon it will again take you back to the same thing you can create a few other things like you can ask a question you can create an event or you can create an article so if you want to create an article which is available to all the members it's fairly straightforward as creating a post you need to give a title a new article and then start writing the article that's it once you've done that click post again pick a topic you can say research or any other topic that is relevant and post you will not see this message this is only for the host so say your article is live here you can see i can see two notifications here if i click on that i can see my notifications so i'll go through that in this video up at the top you can see these three lines this gives you the option to discover or discovery members topics groups events and settings so let's go to discovery discovery is a place where you will see all the information that the host has put that is i have put here so there's featured posts or events that i have listed here there are upcoming events top members these are automatically selected here depending upon who is active on the on the community you can see all different types of topics and you can follow these topics if they are of your interest members near you is a very interesting uh feature of this app it shows you the members who are close to you geographically so maybe in the same city or maybe in the same suburb okay let's go back if you click on members it will show you different members in this community topics these are all the different topics that are created on this community you can follow them and when you are creating a post or an article you can select any of these topics to tag your article or your post in the events tab you can see any upcoming events that have been posted here on the community similarly there are different groups that we can create so far i have only created two groups if you think you want to create a group and manage a group on the community please let me know and i can create that group for you so i have created one group called shut up and write this is created by this this has been created by on the request of one of the members so yeah that's pretty much of these features you can go to your personal profile go into personal settings you can check your account you check notifications here you can get your email updates for any changes that happen on the community whenever anyone posts or you can deactivate that you can even get these notification pushed onto the mobile app so it will you'll be notified on the app plus there are many different types of notifications that you can see and you have complete control of what kind of notifications you want and what kind of notifications you do not want so you can enable and disable them as you prefer it's up to you you can even edit your profile add a cover photo add a mini bio put some links to your website or linkedin account or anything of that sort also give an introduction about yourself and i recommend that you do put the introduction because that will help you and others to find you and also the location feature is very important if you want to connect locally with other research other researchers the other option that you can see here is the option to invite and this is when you can send out an invitation to other researchers maybe they are your friends or they are doing phd with you or anyone else you think would benefit from this network and you can just add multiple email addresses here and the invites would be sent straight away you can also share the link for this community on your social network so that they can directly click on the link and join once you invite members and they join you can become a bronze level member a silver level member when you invite 10 or more or when 10 or more members join after your invitation and you become a gold member when you refer and 25 members join the community there will be specific advantages and benefits for these three levels and i will be sharing those in the near future so that's pretty much it's very easy to use app so i recommend all of you to uh to download this app from the app store and start using it it is a very easy and convenient way to connect with researchers um on the community it will be you you'll connect connected throughout the time all right that's it i wanted to share this with you and i hope you all get onto this app thank you very much okay so let's move on uh we're going to the next section of today's session and that is to review a few literature review papers uh to see how they ident how they write different sections of their of their paper so it will be very useful uh for you so because you can now relate uh to these different sections uh because this is what you are going to be writing as well so before i go ahead could you please confirm that you all can hear me clearly uh seems like there is some issue with my mic today just let me know that you can hear me all right okay ah let me let me log out and then try try this again just give me some give me a minute okay could you see if this is any better is the sound any better now is the sound good guys okay i think it is all right i'm using my wireless headphones now so i guess the quality probably is better all right so let's uh let's move on ramesh krishnan i think the problem is due to having two systems nearby probably that is the case because i have two laptops uh one next to the other but i had the same setup last time as well last time was not an issue anyway let's go i think you all can hear better now so let's move on we're already running a bit [Music] over time okay so the first paper that i have taken for today's case study is a mini review published in computational and structural biotechnology journal it is an open access paper so if you search this title you should be able to get get that paper so in the case studies section i have only selected um open access paper so it will be easier for everyone to get access to it okay um so this is kind of a multi-disciplinary topic paper so it is talking about blockchain as well as a biomedical area all right so let's look at this spark here on the left it's the title and what i want to show here is the abstract so like last last week we did a similar exercise where i looked at when i looked at the existing use abstract and showed you how it is well written or well structured so again a similar exercise today but other than abstract we have a few more things that i want to cover to show you that's how to structure a paper properly so if you look at this abstract it starts with blockchain is a distributed immutable technology a ledger technology introduced as the enabling mechanism to support something so like a one-liner description of this topic blockchain solutions are currently being proposed to address diverse problems in different domains so this is like a connecting sentence that is trying to connect blockchain with biomedical domain this paper presents a scoping review of the scientific literature to map the current research area of blockchain applications in biomedical domain so this is a very clearly mentioned contribution or the aim of this paper the goal is to identify biomedical problems so we are saying now the goal is to identify the problems treated with this technology the level of maturity of different approaches where this has been used uh in here it mentions the methodology that they have used prisma literature search was conducted august 2018 selection identified 47 papers our findings show that the field is still in the infancy only one student reports the real world demonstration and evaluation research is greatly focused so in this abstract you can see the the research or the findings have been explained in in some good level of detail okay so next now look let's look at this uh table of contents so this is from the same paper and it kind of highlights the different sections within within this paper so it starts off with an introduction then within the method section itself they have kind of covered a lot of things like the goal of the and the research question the protocol uh inclusion exclusion criteria uh where the sources and the search strategy how they have selected the sources uh synthesis of results and then so on the reason i wanted to show this table of contents is to tell you that these are the standard headings that you would need in your paper as well so try to start thinking about these headings and what is it that you're going to write and when you refer to some papers like these which are already published you can uh see how they have written these sections and learn from their writing style and imitate their writing style because that is a way when you're learning something this would be like a very good uh template that you can follow then this section here uh is the uh section for why is there a need for doing this review paper so today i mentioned what we are going to cover was uh the review paper and what why we are doing this review paper so this is kind of a very important section but in this article for for uh for example in this article they have not spent really a large amount of time to describe this uh but i will show you in the third third section of today's session how we can do this in a better way but basically what they say is a recent critical review of blockchain applications identified the following major applications financial services healthcare business and so on an overview of blockchain potential and example applications in health are presented in recent relevant reviews so if you look at paper 7 to 9 these are existing systematic review papers which are related to blockchain and healthcare these include patient information patient information security patient data access control health and supply chain management medical insurance and so on so this is giving a background like what is other what other existing research papers or existing literature reviews have done okay so in this paper we systematically analyze the state of the art in blockchain applications in biomedical domain as presented in the peer-reviewed scientific literature so just a few sentences in this section is creating or is showing the need for doing a systematic literature review in blockchain and biomedical domain so what i feel that this section itself can be a bit more elaborate can be a bit more thorough uh and by doing that uh you are just showing the rigor uh rigor of your of your research so what is it that you could kind of do to make this more uh to make it more uh rigorous so one thing is you can say instead of just writing a seven to nine these papers have done this you could create a table yeah in that table you would have the first part of the table could be the research article like a citation author and year the second could be the the third would be when was this review done and how many years worth of literature was covered so maybe from 2010 to 2015 or 2012 to 2018 were the papers that were reviewed the next column could be how many papers were actually reviewed so it could be in this paper uh systematic review 1 there were 100 papers that were reviewed other one could be 200 other one would be 50. otherwise so like that so such a table uh will give a very a better or a clear understanding of the existing literature reviews and by looking at that table it will give you an idea of what is it that you are going to do different how is your study different from what is already published so this is a very important step in doing a literature review and i copied this section uh to show how they have covered the process of screening so we will not go through that today but uh the reason i have it here is we will be doing that uh next in the next session but it's good to good to have a look so that once you have seen this you kind of get yourself familiarized with this pro with this activity so most literature reviews papers will have something of uh of this sort a table a table so not a table a flow chart that shows the process all right so the next bit here is the research questions that this paper is addressing by doing this systematic literature review so let's look at some of these questions and the reason i want to talk about these questions is it will also help you to kind of frame your research questions based upon something that you see here or if any other paper that you uh that you find so what areas have been addressed in current applications of blockchain technology in biomedical domain so it's a fairly straightforward question we are going to when so when we are searching for research papers this is one of the things that we are going to look for second question is what is the level of project maturity in blockchain applications in the biomedical domain so again whenever when so imagine you have downloaded say 50 or 100 papers you could use those papers and try to find the answers to these to these questions what types of biomedical data has been considered in the biomedical applications and this so if the if you look at the question three this will be really helpful for researchers who are going to do some empirical studies why because by looking at the answer to question three i can see that if i have to propose a new solution a new framework a new algorithm a new model whatever my core innovation is i have to compare that innovation with something that is already published in the literature so a paper that kind of addresses this as a research question in a literature review like like in here i can just refer to that particular section of this paper which addresses the question three so that will tell me that existing literature has used these data sets for uh running their experiments or doing their simulations so when i am writing my empirical paper i can just use those as a as a starting point and i can compare my findings with with those so it becomes a very useful uh resource for researchers what are the major reasons for using blockchain technology in the biomedical domain fairly straightforward question uh which blockchain technology frameworks are used for biomedical applications so this is the last question is bit more technical and blockchain oriented so from a blockchain perspective uh there are different ways in which you can implement blockchain solutions so this is one uh so one one of the things that you could find by studying this is whether how many studies are using a particular type of blockchain platform okay so some research questions for you to ponder upon start thinking about uh the research questions that you could uh make you can post it in the chat or put it on the community so start building up your ideas so once you have done that that is the research questions what we eventually want is to come up with something like a knowledge map and you can see that here yeah so this knowledge map is uh kind of showing you in this area of blockchain applications in the biomedical domain how can we categorize the existing literature so biomedical data application related so you can you can categorize literature based on in which application area that solution was developed what technology was used bitcoin ethereum hyperledger fabric or so on what was the reason of using blockchain so these are the kind of you know the answers which you can see uh sorry uh the questions that are raised here and you can come up with a knowledge map so this is something that you can follow as well so if you have a research question you can when you're mapping the literature the map could reflect your research questions so another way you can so this is another thing that you can do in a systematic review is come up with tables like these uh authors or articles are here the years in which they are published the type of article it is what is the area what is the maturity so this depends upon what you are trying to answer in your research or your research questions similarly another question one other thing that was asked was why is blockchain used you know so that was one question so you can see the reasons why blockchain was used which papers use that what kind of data was recorded and what technology was used so depending upon your research questions it is good to come up with some descriptive uh sorry not descriptive or tabulated results to show the evaluation or your research synthesis okay so now i have one question for you and i'll copy one link so i want you to spend say five minutes to think about what is it that you could apply from this study okay and post that on the community i'm sending you the link right now so the link to the post on the community is here you can see that and i'm also copying the link to the open access paper [Music] okay so based upon what i covered just now i can probably take it back to i think i want you to focus basically on the the way abstract was written the way the the literature review part was written or how the questions were created and the knowledge map so i want you to think about what is it that you could apply in your paper okay so i'll give you five minutes to kind of work on that and share your ideas on the community page hey so inarni has just replied on the post uh saying that the knowledge map seems very useful for me to apply in in the paper so yeah i think that's right i think knowledge map not only helps you to kind of structure your thoughts or your ideas but it also helps others who want to learn from your learn from the from your the way you have synthesized or categorized the literature um okay okay let's look at there are a few responses on the on the community uh kanchan mentions the knowledge map linked with research questions framed is it is excellent to be incorporated so you get a like for that irani you also get a like diane uh what areas of nursing has been addressed what frameworks have been used to assess clinical skills what is the level of project maturity oh that's fantastic i think you have actually come up with the questions itself diane that's great uh biju mentions the way research questions are framed seems to be useful uh oh john uh mentions uh or asks in fact is coping review synonymous to uh systematic review so uh john to answer your question scoping review is a type of a systematic literature review so yes you can consider it as a slr okay just one more minute if you want to respond to this question and then we'll move on to the next case study uh hina mentions uh i would like to use strategies like showing results in a tabulated form uh knowledge map seems good too yeah so i think uh once you have collected your data a lot of a lot of thing actually depends upon how you uh convey the results you know and this is where different types of maps or designs like these uh come come in very handy okay one last refresh before we move on uh satya mentions i'm using content analysis that's good cool okay so let's uh move on so thank you all for giving your responses i think it would have helped you to um frame start start thinking about your research and research questions and also how you can represent your results uh gina tom asks in the chat window how to cite how to use and cite published figures and photos i think you can you can either mention that it is adopted if you have changed the figure or the table in some form you can say adopted and adopted from so you can then give the citation for that particular paper and published figures i think you can just cite you can cite it as as a traditional traditionally you do in a literature review paper but if some figures or depend upon where you get the figures from if they are copyrighted uh you may have to request from the copyright owner that is it okay to use your your your figures or photos in my research paper it's always better to have that in writing okay uh all right so the next case study that i have here is the policies of provision of assistive and welfare technology a literature review uh the title uh the this is again an open access paper and uh you can access through through this link uh conscient pattern uh asks do you have any software to create knowledge maps i think there are many uh online software's tension that you can use or if you have access to microsoft visio you could use that as an option as well to kind of start with the design or the or you can even do it in word that is the easiest way all right again evaluation of the literature sorry evaluation of the abstract due to increasing aging population worldwide humanity is facing global demographic challenges so the first line itself kind of tells the problem for many people their later years are often lived and changed functioning and with changed functioning and the need for support in daily living activities so that is kind of giving you the background or the problem for that matter assistive technology and welfare technology constitute a practical solution to the demographic challenges so this is how the they think that this could be a solution so what is the objective the purpose of this literature review so it's very clearly stated the purpose is to identify the policy features identify the policy features and these are the details of the what the policies could be if you look at the methods a literature review with a deductive approach using the structure of global cooperative on global cooperation on assistive technology that is gate model was conducted the data was searched from these databases and they only selected nine articles in this paper results the findings are presented according to the structure of eight domains from the gate model so this gate model that they have used in this study has eight domains and then they have used these nine articles to see or compare it against the eight domains to see how or where they fit uh and these are the names of the models policy assessment procurement technology and so on conclusion the review reveals a nascent and growing interest in this area however evidence-based decision models and other guidance are lacking recent scholarship and policy reforms can form the basis of a stronger guidance to organize complex systems but further and future research is needed so that's a good way to kind of conclude uh the abstract so when you read the abstract it is fairly clear of what kind of work they have done uh how important it is how valuable it is if they have used any theory or a framework in this and then they have okay now let's look at this need for doing a new literature review so this paper gives a little bit more information on how you can on why they are doing this research to the best of our knowledge few studies have been conducted in the field of health policies such as guidance for the provision of atnwt under a welfare system with tax funded atwt reliable and evidence-based processes and models are required we strive to obtain a deeper understanding of the process in determining providing and implementing by reviewing the literature in this important yet neglected field our study aims to do this the gate model proposed by these authors is used in this study as a lens to grasp the area the gate model was recognized by who after a meeting to increase access to high quality affordable 80 in order to fulfill the obligations of the crpd so basically if you can think of it consists of eight key questions or domains so these are the eight areas or questions that they want to answer using the nine papers that are identified in this in this study again i've copied the methodology section for you to see again this paper also shows the process uh they started with 2000 records and then shortlisted some shortlisted sum and eventually selected nine articles for review in this section in this session in this paper in this one they have got a table and these eight items are those from the gate model yeah so gate model has eight domains those are shown here and on this side there are the nine papers that they have selected in this study and you can see the areas with a cross is where a cross and a dash so those areas that are those papers that cover these topics are shown uh in using using this table and the results section i want to highlight here is they have picked up each item so like policy assessment procurement technology and so on and they have synthesized the literature and their evaluation of the literature under each heading so this is also something that you can think of doing in your in your paper so if you have uh so in this case they are using a gate model right but what what if you if you think about the previous example that we used uh there was a knowledge map or there were five research questions so the results could in fact also be the answers to those research questions yeah so instead of policy assessment and rights we could relate to the research questions and that becomes the heading and the literature that is synthesized under that heading would be the kind of response or answer to that that question so this just shows uh those are the different areas uh another thing uh that this paper did which uh i i in fact i like to do this as well is come up with a table like this which lists the authors or i mean the paper first in the citation format and depending upon the kind of research you are doing if the countries are relevant you can mention those countries but you need to definitely mention the purpose of your research of their research sorry what is the purpose of doing this if there was a specific method that they used you could mention that if there was a data set or a population where you interviewed somebody you can mention them what was the main finding and what was the in this case uh if there was a decision theory or model of something like that was used then you can mention that here this table is not only important here but you can imagine you could draw a similar table to show which are the existing literature review papers in your field in which case this will be a literature review paper and these these headings will will change uh it could be the the purpose or the objective of this research of this literature review how many papers were reviewed in this paper in this slr uh how many papers and it could be then when was it conducted in which year range and so on so i will we will do that in the in the next session where i will show you the table how you can how you can design it because that is a very interesting way to uh to show this information okay so that was the second case study i'll give you again a similar uh question let me find the paper for you first so this is the link to the paper it's an open access paper so all of you open that and i will also find the and this is the link to the community post so again a similar question based upon this study so have a quick look at the paper uh through that link open access paper uh and see what what is it that you would like to incorporate in your paper and make a few notes right uh um right um okay let's see some responses that we have got for this question second question so he now mentions that the template can be developed to guide the extraction process yeah that's very true kanchan mentions results are written very nicely mapped to the gate gate model uh also as you mentioned we can have answer to research questions in the results section yeah i think that makes very that is very practical uh way uh if you're not using a model to structure your literature review the knowledge map in fact becomes the model that you would that you would use diane mentions that the flowchart for inclusion and exclusion helps to identify the most suitable and relevant research articles so that's very true and also the appraisal of article provides a summary of research conducted and their findings that's that's that's right ramesh mentions i will check if there is any framework which i can use yes i think for every uh every discipline every area when you read through your existing literature or even the systematic review papers that are published in your area i think you will i think you will get to know what are the theories that are being used uh or framework that are being used uh in your in your discipline so reading through the existing uh reviews it's i think itself is a very uh useful exercise it not only helps you to refine your research but it kind of also gives you the background information that that can help you even structure your your research much better okay uh so i'll close this now and we can move on to uh okay so we have got to the next q a say session for the for uh section for this session so if you have any questions please do post them on the community and i'll try to answer them i have also identified a few more papers for the case study i will put a links to those paper on the community so you can then review it in the same way that i did so break down the paper because when you read uh existing review papers uh thoroughly and understand their structure and understand how they have written or framed their arguments i think it is a very uh useful learning exercise you know uh you can learn from from these papers much more uh than just uh what they have written a lot of things can be gleaned or picked up from existing papers and when you read five six of maybe even ten different papers you can kind of start seeing the similarities and also some things that are unique about each paper so you can when you are writing when you start writing your paper would be good to kind of get all these things together uh and come up with a really good article uh based on this this these things okay so q a time uh any questions please post them quickly so we can move on to the next session okay uh so hina has asked one question which is uh which is interesting i will take it up here so the question is uh kindly suggest few journals specifically known for publishing literature reviews is there any interdisciplinary journal available in your knowledge so there are many many journals that specifically that only publish literature reviews uh for i can only comment it based on my discipline so we have ieee surveys acm surveys which which publish journals only which only publish really thorough literature review papers then we also have a renewable there was one on journal renewable energy is i think which renewed let me just quickly search it uh i can't find that name but it is a very uh very uh top journal which has which publishes um survey articles only so that i will if you leave this question on the community you know i will find that our journal and and post it but even if others if you know uh any any other journals then please do i think i'll just make a question here from what you have mentioned so i'll open it up for anyone so if you have so if you all know any answer to this question please help um uh hina with uh with her with her query and i'll also reply to to that shortly after the session any more questions from anyone okay seems like nobody is has any further questions so i will not i will not wait for 10 minutes we can move on okay we got one question from moorly uh what is the plagiarism percentage for the review paper uh i think there should be no plagiarism in fact why would there be a plagiarism in a review paper because you're actually synthesizing the literature so you're not you should not be copying anything as is unless it is a definition that you have which you have the which you have it in double quotes uh only then but otherwise uh there should be very limit very low percentage of plagiarism uh i don't see the reason why you should have any any at all okay if no further questions let's move on i had planned a break but i don't see might need a break now because it was quite a bit of work thing okay so we're now starting the section or the uh third part of today's session which is on getting you all to start writing so everyone if you can open up your word document or and open up google scholar we will start doing some literature search so these are the four tasks that we have to do in the next hour or so so the first thing that i want you to do is to search for existing literature review articles in your field and list their main objectives okay so i could go so open up google scholar or if you have access to web of science or scopus or proquest then use that but otherwise start off with google scholar for the exercise for this exercise now so what you need to search is your topic say if i say if i search blockchain and systematic literature reviews okay it's a very broad keyword that i'm trying to search but the intention is to find out if there are any uh systematic review articles all right so when i search that i can see over 10 which means at least there are 100 papers so even if on the 10th if i'm now i'm on the 10th page i can still see some papers that are a systematic literature review a scoping review a systematic review a review of blockchain hardware literature review it's not a systematic literature review this one a systematic analysis of real world energy blockchain initiatives so another thing that i could do is use this as a keyword i'm sorry and this is showing those which have the title systematic review or systematic literature review okay so can you all start doing that on your for your specific topic and find out what literature review papers exist in that in your area so okay uh bb has asked a question which is uh an interesting question uh is there any software or mechanism to synthesize the literature for extracting findings so from what i know there is no such software that can do it automatically so i'm imagining you are thinking you download these papers put it in the system and it will kind of give you the results so that is a kind of a literature review software that does the literature review i am not sure if there is anything like that exists but it may be a good topic for someone to research on and to build a software like that that would be very helpful for researchers like us okay i think there was some issue with my uh getting the questions the question seems to be coming up now so i'll probably take five minutes to answer these questions quickly and then you i'll give you time to work on your the writing bit okay henna's question is can we look for population specific literature like rural or urban yeah i mean if your research question uh if you're trying to answer that as a research question or even a comparison of rural versus urban then then you could do that swati mentions so what is q1 q2 q3 actually this question from last session okay uh i will show that now because i mentioned i would do that so okay so if you go to this website called shimago s-c-i-m-a-g-g-o uh so basically this is a journal ranking website and you can click journal rankings here and you can select your area for example let me just choose say computer science and i can also choose type which is journals okay so now if you look here q1 so q1 refers to quartile one which means the best possible best journals in a particular discipline so if you scroll down all are q1 q1 similarly if you go to second page or third page you may see q2 yeah so i think there are quite a quite a lot of q1 articles here but you can just scroll down further and you will find uh q2 q3 and q4 uh so q1 is the best journals in your discipline q2 is one level down q through q3 is another level down so i would suggest uh if you are spending a good amount of time to do a very good literature review aim for a q1 journal okay and you can see some of these like a lock padlock these are open access so if you go to those journals you may find the relevant all the papers easy to access access there okay lilani asks what is the easiest way to look for research gaps in the literature i think the easiest way to look for the research gaps is to read as many papers as you can and find out basically come up with a knowledge map you know so that will tell you uh what what needs what needs to be done more many a times if it is a good paper if you refer to the last if you refer to the conclusion of the future work section of that paper uh that will also give you some idea because many good papers will mention what is the work that needs to be done so refer to those those topics those sections uh can we use publish or perish uh i've known about this but i have not actually used it so i cannot comment on that thing okay so i think i'll leave the other questions for later so now i want you to search for your papers existing literature review papers and come up with start collecting that data so while you are doing that i will create a small table uh which i will show you and this is how you can start adding your uh start adding start building the table for literature reviews okay so so the table that you should come up with to show your literature analysis or existing literatures so these are the papers which are existing literature review papers okay just a sample by reading the existing literature review i want to identify what is their main aim or objective okay so let me go back here and this is my uh my personal uh process is when i look for something like this i will start with the latest year so since 2020 so i want to see what is the latest work that has been published so for example i can take this for now and i'll put that in here so instead of this actually i should have just used this as the as an example so this is the paper published in 2020 and if i look through this abstract this is the publication [Music] this literature identifies peer-reviewed literature that seeks to utilize blockchain for cyber security and presents a systematic analysis of the most frequently adopted blockchain security applications so this is kind of there i could say this is their objective our findings show that our findings show that the internet of things lends itself well to normal blockchain applications as do other network visualization skills and so on so what this paper does not mention here is uh the range of the study as well as the number of papers that are covered and this is quite typical in computer science related areas where this is not a well-established process but if i search for some other related other disciplines i may be able to find that okay in fact actually this is doing it here in this section so the research questions are what are the latest blockchain applications focused on security so i can actually go here and put that how is blockchain used to improve cyber security and what methods are available to do this so i can then if you want i can get rid of this bit okay so those are this is the objective of the research research on cyber security um we identified 42 primary studies uh on blockchain and cybersecurity up to early 2018. so 42 studies up to 2018 other researchers can use this list we further select 30 primary studies to meet the criteria we set these studies can provide so it is not clear to me by reading this whether it is 72 studies in total or is it 30 from the 42 but if i read it in detail i will probably get an idea this is how this paper has searched the keywords so one thing you can also do probably not required to be mentioned in the paper but you can record their keyword strategy as well where they have searched these papers from was conducted on 30th of april 2018 and it is also useful to mention this date somewhere in your paper uh because there may be papers that were indexed later on compared to this date inclusion exclusion criteria are presented here so you can see that so these are the inclusion criteria these are the exclusion criteria so if you see here this this paper has not included grey literature such as blogs or government documents so i think rodriguez you are asking about uh something like this so if you're still there this is an example where some journals do not like this thing okay so here it explains the whole process so if you see here it says 742 studies were the first result then reduced to 665 then 72 then 32 and they applied uh forward and backwards snowballing so you can search what this means forward and backwards snowballing many of you might know know it as well so from 32 to 42 so the 42 is the total number of papers that they have uh used okay so i want to go into this bit our main intention today is to come up with this table okay so find the paper what are their objectives how many till what range they have studied the papers how many papers were covered and findings you may have you may may not doesn't really matter because what we what the reason why we are doing this table is to identify these things because if you are going to start your literature review paper you do not want to address these questions yeah ideally you should not because a review has already has already been undertaken but if you realize that these three questions could be answered in even much better way or if you think the inclusion or the exclusion criteria used in this paper uh are different to what you want to use then it makes sense because your literature selection will be different and you may find some different results but it's always good to know what is being uh what is being done what has been done and how you can uh do something different okay uh so okay let me check for time [Music] 15 okay all right so if any of you have done this for one paper can you just paste a copy and paste it uh in the chat window or on the or on the on the community so we all can see and i can take that as an example and talk about it so i give you say five minutes to find a paper and come up with these uh identify this information from that paper okay so five minutes starts now so uh so the best way is music section okay how are you going has anyone completed uh okay take your time no rush but just do one paper properly so once you have done it once you know that you can easily replicate it for more papers ah foreign so uh henna so what we want to do now is find out what is the what the other papers have done so if your confusion is what is the uniqueness of the article or simply mention the findings so at this stage in this table you want to mention what is there what what is their objective or aim of doing that uh literature review which can be identified from the research questions that they have mentioned the findings really don't matter at this stage uh but if you want to mention you can mention that here however keep in mind that we don't want to i mean just now i just showed it to by doing it copy paste but you should actually rephrase their findings and mention it in your own own words so baby your question is can we include empirical studies in our review paper so a review paper is actually a summary of a review of empirical papers itself but today or now what we are doing is we are doing a summary of existing review papers in your discipline in your area so that we can identify what will be the main objective of your review paper so to answer your question that that your question will be answered in the next session on the next on the coming sunday where we will be doing this so huh okay there are a couple of questions i'll take those up now one is kalpana is asking is there any limitation to add the literature detail is there any limitation to add the literature detail in this table like any restrictions or number of rows uh i i don't think there is any restriction here uh kalpana i think what you need to do is uh don't make it too exhaustive because we don't want to make a journal we don't want to make we don't want to make the review of the review papers itself our main objective is to build a review of the empirical studies but we have to cover sufficient number of uh papers and this again will depend upon different in different disciplines but anywhere between eight to ten i've seen many papers cover that many articles uh so that gives a good enough understanding of how much literature or existing slrs are out there so yeah so there is no restriction as such another question is there are differences regarding the information we have to put in the table uh means somewhere the range is not mentioned etc yeah so many times what may happen is um authors do not either do not mention some aspects for example sometimes they do not mention how many papers they have reviewed or they have not mentioned uh when they selected the paper so one of the thing is that is not a good sign of a good systematic review paper if it is a good systematic review paper all this information should already be there so if you come across a paper where the information like this is not easily to be found check the ranking of that journal to see that it is a good ranked journal and this also brings me to one more point is one of the inclusionary exclusion criteria could be that you will only select papers from q1 and q2 journals and this may apply for looking for the existing literature review articles as well because there may be review articles published in q3 journals uh and we and but and then you decide okay the work that is done or published in that uh journal is not up to the best standard there is a lot of kind of loopholes or is not very thorough or not very rigorous then you could take on that research that as a research question and do a much better job and publish in a much higher ranked journal so imran is asking sir it's necessary to write literature review although slr already literature review so yes it is necessary and it is an important step because what we want to achieve by doing this exercise is to show that the exit to to list what are the existing literature review articles in your space in your area we don't want to duplicate the efforts if there is a really good article that is published in your area uh why waste your time to come up with another one so to avoid that problem we want to do this study do this process and find out what is already out there and and that helps us to carve our research question which can answer something different something more interesting okay so how are you guys going can you add some thing on the community so i can see if uh something and i can discuss one of the examples okay so there is one paper that has come up let me just open that all right so this uh i guess all of you can see this yeah so this article is uh sent to me by um by hina so the paper that is identified is a 2017 paper and the objective uh is focus on digital developments and rural developments in advanced countries to better understand the potential impact of the coming next generation access revolution so the time range is september 2013. so hina i think this this thing could be improved so this is a range you know so it could be from 2013 to say if this is published in 2017 so it may be up to 2016. you know the papers may be from these three years so check that number of papers covered 157 that's good the paper indicates the need to focus upon specific places and communities bringing together both connectivity and inclusion so that's good the findings are good so uh now could you just share the link for this paper so let me quickly open it if it is available and i can see if there is anything else i would i would add from there kalpana your question about the difference between a traditional review and a systematic review i answered it earlier today so you can check the video from the beginning after the session is complete and you could find that answer okay so diva current has asked a question if we took the same thing as in the article what about plagiarism so yeah that's right so i think i just mentioned uh before that this is not the final version this is the intermediate step what we are doing is we are collecting the information we have not synthesized the information yet so when we go to that phase we will rephrase and rewrite uh the same things uh in uh in our own words so that way we will avoid plagiarism okay anybody else wants to share their writing i can give some feedback uh can we use the same techniques in our phd thesis literature review yes of course i mean this is the best way to do your phd literature review chapter in your phd because it is the most thorough and objective way of reviewing the literature so definitely you should do it okay he now has replied it here okay so if this is the paper the paper presents a systematic review of 157 papers so from the first line itself i know how many papers are studied here on digital developments and rural developments in advanced countries it focuses on the general conclusion in order to better understand the potential impact of this we distinguish two major strands of research connectivity research and inclusion research so those are the two areas so i can think that these two could be some things that you can say this is the distinguishing paper so these are the two main things or contributions in the connectivity theme the conclusion is that so they are mentioning the conclusion here public policies to promote the availability or improvement is here okay general policies in the field neglect specific local needs the paradox is that rural communities are most in need of improved digital connectivity to compensate for the remoteness but they are least connected and included future research should therefore focus on specific places and communities combining both connectivity and inclusion issues in order to inform customized policies for poorly connected and digitally excluded rural communities so this is actually a very uh good explanation for what as as an example of what kind of future research can be done so it is very nicely written here so uh you know i think i don't have access to this paper so i cannot go through uh go through it in detail yeah it's not an open access paper okay but uh i think what you have done is uh is a good good start to the to the writer and yeah so this first step is getting all these multiple tables done and then synthesizing that in your own words so then to avoid plagiarism we cannot use this as is from the paper so we will rephrase that that in our own words and explain them explain that here okay anybody else has posted anything okay there are a few more papers that have come up so i'll quickly go through them uh so this is a summary done by um bijou title of the paper is good uh i also put a doi which is very handy what are the ecological and livelihood rules what are the participants what are the barriers to enhanced economic outcomes so the questions are quite clear the range is clear from 2013 to 17 so 12 14 years paper prisma is method is used and they have covered 51 papers and these are the findings okay so your spot on uh video great work and start when you when you come start reading uh literature reviews keep a close eye on these questions because this will help you to kind of see what kind of questions you can you can come up with as well okay let me see there was another one by santuana all right uh the study reviews relevant literature and identified six herbal products these which have shown interactions with chemo therapy therapeutic agents in humans focus on clearly on clinically significant herb drug interaction should be of interest to the public including practitioners researchers and consumers okay so this objective is uh is clear what i would suggest is if this paper has specifically mentioned the research questions maybe put that as well for your records uh number of papers reviewed are 345. if you have any findings then you can mention them here sometimes the findings are also interesting to help you frame your questions you know so some for example some finding sometimes uh the findings that uh authors report will give you idea of uh what else could be the kind of the next logical study that needs to be done so those ideas can come by by reading the findings as well foreign okay rashinda has mentioned that she's done this paper um but could not mention the um could not find the study range or number of papers that they have covered so like i mentioned earlier uh check the quality of the journal from where you have found that if it is a normally good journals would have that information mentioned in in those in their papers so the aim urgent research question comprise understanding the mental health effects of social distancing and economic pressure identify risk and resilience factors and long-term consequences but not restricted child treatment so the aim is clear this is not mentioned there research is needed to assess the implications of policies enacted to contain the pandemic on mental health so this seems like a pretty new paper because it is covet related [Music] uh 2019 paper and yeah one more thing uh like what reviewers or uh would be looking at when you are doing this section of your paper is that you have selected that you have uh looked for papers that are fairly recent as well so having 2020 2019 2018 papers in this in this table actually shows more rigor in your research because it helps us as reviewers to kind of assess whether this is the latest work that has been done in this area so the question or objectives here are what methodologies are employed and how do these contribute to the production of knowledge what vectors are identified and included so this question seems a little bit weak to me i'm not really sure what this one means but this is fairly clear study range number of papers are 50 so if the study range is not explicitly mentioned in the paper what you could do is look at these 50 papers from the reference list and see when they are published so then that way you can identify uh the range of the papers it might seem like a daunting task but yeah you got to do that okay so i'll take one last one uh which is this one from nunong suryati so there's a lot of findings up in this paper uh journal of computer assisted language learning published in 2020 so which is very recent the aim of the study is to examine the trends and main findings of the studies concerning the flipped classroom method in the field of english language teaching okay so that is fairly clear 43 papers covered study range again like i mentioned if it is not explicitly mentioned look at these 43 papers and find out the range and there's also another trick that you can use here is as you're going through the papers uh start with the lowest year in the reference list for example if you look at 2014 or 2013 is the latest the earliest one take that one and then look for the next higher one so you don't have to go through all the 43 articles you can cut down that that process so find the lowest one find the highest one and then from the lowest one check whether the lowest one is one of those 43 papers and the highest one is whether one of those 43 papers or not so that way it will be faster because in the research paper other than these papers like 43 papers in this case you also have some other papers which are like background you use in the background or in the methodology but it is not the actual paper that you are reviewing so those papers can come in the reference list so try to um ignore those and quickly find out so once you do it once or twice you will be kind of uh get a hang of doing it and in a faster way okay i think we are coming close to the end of the session now for today uh what i would want you to do as a work or homework for this week is to finalize this document this table for literature review evaluation or analysis uh and then um then share then post it here all those who have posted their abstract on the community i have already uh i have replied to some of you already and others i will try to reply it over this week uh and one more thing is or if there are any questions i can take some questions we have still have five six minutes so okay biju mentions i am unable to find any slr on my topic bamboo for rural livelihood so i think you are in a similar situation like me when i looked for uh blockchain and marketing i could not find any relevant literature in that space so what i would suggest is find out what is a little bit broader so if not bamboo for rural livelihood is there anything else that is used in the rural areas and there may be a literature review on that so you could say that specifically on bamboo there has been no research no literature review published however in a related area these are some of the reviews that that we have that i have come across uh uh some tips to sort out research questions uh i think we will we'll be covering this more in the next session so we will we will i will skip it for for the next session uh what to do with papers that don't completely fit to our topic but it partially discusses one aspect or variable of our topic so if you are asking this from the perspective of finding out which if this is a literature review paper that you are referring to then and if it has one aspect which is relevant to you just pick that aspect in the research question and mention that so we saw many examples let's pick one for example this one if there are four questions like these but there is only one that relates to you or to the research that you are thinking you can mention just that one question you know so that that shows that there is one paper at least one paper that is looking at that particular aspect but others may not be relevant and you can even state that in the description uh so all right there was one more thing that i wanted to cover today uh but probably won't get a chance but what i will do is i'll i'll put some examples of the things what we do so once we get this table done the next table is to the next thing is to write about the existing literature reviews okay so here you would write that we investigated or we studied or we identified 10 papers 10 slr papers that broadly fit within the research that we are undertaking these are shown in table above what we observe is that a majority of these papers focused on something they were and then you can give an example for example paper number 12 discussed something however it only covered 50 papers and their inclusion exclusion criteria was not exhaustive or whatever you find as the drawback of that that particular paper yeah similarly we noticed paper abc discussed this in a very great detail however they lacked something something okay so this is a a kind of a description that can go along with the table yeah so once you have this table you can mention some description like this and if you read some good papers you will find uh this kind of a description that is that is there after the after that after that table so i think that is uh that is all for today that i had planned um yes so if you have any questions please post them on on the community later and before you go if you all can just leave some feedback for me of this session i have copied the feedback link in the chat window okay so just let me know if today's format was was better or if there is anything else that you would like me to improve uh in the next session and i will try my best to do that all right if there is any nothing more we can conclude the session uh we can conclude today's session now uh i hope uh you can work on this table for this week so you would have the abstract ready the introduction uh section actually i didn't get time to discuss introduction today i was thinking of doing it uh but time just went past too quickly uh let's keep that introduction for another session i'll try to see if i can accommodate that in the next session but for this week if you can do a thorough review of existing literature review papers study the structure of these papers and as a submission for this week you could send me a table of table like this and and a small description and of the literature reviews that you have studied okay if you can also identify by doing the literature review if you can identify a gap of what research needs to be done or you have you have got an idea or clarity of the the theme of your systematic literature review paper then also mention that so that will start to start you uh on that process of getting some research questions identified i showed you some examples already today in the two case studies how they have identified the research questions easiest way is you could begin with something like that and the objective of that of your slr could be coming up with a knowledge map okay so on that note i think i will uh say thank you very much uh for joining the session uh i know for some people it is very early in the morning and you have may or in the midnight and you have still made it so that really shows your commitment and i know that you would be the ones who would be successful those who have attended these sessions and i am there for you to guide uh you in that in that process um okay i think just a few last comments uh hina mentions uh you're making the slr task so much easier thank you very much thanks anna uh diane uh mentioned this was great and so much help uh better format as less conversation and more options to work and learn uh thank you a lot thanks a lot thank you so much for sharing your knowledge all right guys uh everyone thanks a lot um just don't forget to leave feedback and enjoy the rest of your weekend goodbye see you next week

uh baby bottle I was really thinking spigot would have been up there a baby bottle yeah okay a lot a lot of mothers in the uh yeah a lot of mothers and uh I'm gonna tell you I'll just be a bottle I guess but baby I mean honestly baby what is that word baby bottle oh there it is it's actually up there I have one more guess you're right I mean I don't think you're gonna get it because I'm up next and this is going to be an X oh yep wow if you don't have an answer I've never been squirted in the eye Jonas yeah uh water um oh let's go with rain baby I've been saying I was gonna say water gun that's a good that's a good guess actually that's probably better than my guess because my guest didn't get to say point shots we're gonna lose and our first one back well I know who to blame [Applause] this was my game too I always did always was good at this yeah yeah dude it's cool man sometimes you know things flounder we are playing on hard difficulty by the way I just want to put that out there whoop ass on very hard but yes we probably should have just played very hard no milk see what's thinking the same thing you were thinking yeah she's out here a woman's mammary gland when she's excited uh a Manor can I get some mammers oh Sweet Home Alabama we got 67 points baby speaking of Creedence Clearwater Revival isn't that them by the way oh my God are you kidding they don't squirt you in the eye I hate this game hey you were up there my man you were up there you were up there bye this game's gonna take seven hours because we're getting no flipping points 25 to 67 baby who's gonna win the Big Show round three double points we could win right now Jonas if we get all the answers right so just remember that possible to get all the answers right you forgot how how Coy this stupid game is we've done it before I mean you're you're not wrong we have we've definitely things so nothing's stopping us but you know like having the right attitude Ain't Nothing Gonna Break My Stride Ain't Nothing Gonna Hold Me Down Come on Come on B name a Naruto character come on oh my God oh my God easy first answer baby shoes come in pairs you yeah big dummy come on come on be up there nice 104 points Jones I hope you got a good pair or something I'm gonna go right with it socks hope you got something in the locked and loaded in the Chamber of Commerce all right let's hear it you better have something Beyond just your socks Jones because we're gonna need tons more answers baby but let's go with socks boy this socks up there it better be it better be oh number two have one more cut well I've got one and it's probably gonna steal your answer so I'm afraid you're just gonna have to live with the fact that I stole something off of your plate that's fine and I'm gonna go with the one the only pantaloonies because panties I mean true plants come in pairs appearance yeah you get a pair of pants I don't I don't think that's the same thing I'm pretty Jose it's a pair of pants that's what they call it but there's only one you don't call it a pant yeah right it hasn't will be up there it's plural is gloves of course gloves is up there because that's a good answer I mean you said of course pants was gonna be up there so I don't know well I know but I thought pants would be up there but apparently people don't like Linguistics nope they like they're like this thing pair of freaking gloves of course it's up there because it's a good answer or whatever no barely though that's right I got more I got more I got another one Jones this one easy see because I know it's gonna be tricky I know it's going to be tricky so we're gonna go and say a pair of scissors man how do you spell scissors it's only one how do you spell scissors SC is it scissors it is it's it it's plural but it's all the pear but it's not it's called a pair of scissors I need a pair of scissors it's up this is up there pants wasn't up there scissors is dead but [ __ ] because there's only one of them it's called too it says it's theirs uh tires the pit tires everyone who buys them no you don't man you get one tire and then you get another tire and I spelled it wrong you get one tire and you get another tire you know I say them get a pair of tires if tires is up there in scissors isn't I'm done with this game forever I'll turn this [ __ ] off and turn the car around turn the car off I'll delete this video there's only let's see what else comes in I swear to God if trousers is up there I'm gonna shoot my TV and I will buy it I'll go buy a gun come home load it shoot the TV and then buy a new TV over Amazon yeah they're cheap now I know right all right what do you got you big dummy kidneys I want to choke you to death [Music] there's no way that's up there okay good all right all right we're well on our way if trousers is up here I swear to God I'm gonna choke I don't know the trousers uh knickers rest of you not pants buddy oh it might be pair of eyes I thought about that and I was like no that's really stupid oh that's fair that's fair a lot of ears too oh twins okay okay those are actually okay answers I guess my eyes is a little stupid because like it is but I mean there's a lot of things stupid about this game yeah I honestly feel like a pair of scissors and a pair of pants should have been up there as well that's just Insanity to me you're like but there's just one Jonas there is just one I mean you don't get two pairs of scissors both of them have natural innate S's it's because there's two one scissor is just one handle of the scissor they always come in you never find a pant without another pair of pants without another pant that's why I have pants oh my God they're like here's here's the one that matters let's give you seven deep apparently the game just hates us Jones hates us this is me the hardest one this is me right this is me hair oh good answer good answer hair number one answer probably I would say yeah yeah not too shabby baby all right all right I'm gonna get a little bit more uh existential with it I think and I'm gonna say that's me in the corner that's me in the spot people losing your religion right losing my almost pick it up more when they get older don't they what's that don't they gain religion as you get older yeah because usually you get I'm not gonna actually play that I'm gonna say uh your mind yeah that was another one that I had I was gonna say you lose your mind that definitely is kind of something you can basically all the senses are probably good answers my next answer was going to be sight yeah okay well mine is I'm gonna say mind site is my next one I got you know what Jones I guess maybe I should just stop playing I don't think I've finished the right answer yeah I can do all the answers if you want I haven't picked the right answer yet this is you site I know even the right answers I got were bad right answers even the ones that were no shoes was number one homie I don't yeah but that was easy because there was no other answers oh I don't think I've picked any other answers that have been good well you know what you know I guess all right what else do you lose you lose your hair you lose your will to live you lose your will to live as you get older you lose your your ability to walk um strength trains you get weaker as you get older baby this is not going to be up here and I'm going to just I'm gonna lose my mind it's not up there what do you want me to say I love a hearing what do you want me to say what kind of old age are you experiencing over in the freaking UK where you're not losing your you're not losing your hearing your mind your everybody over there just has to they're gonna be like you're a dog and you lose your kids because they move out I'm gonna be like you're gonna lose your teeth when I punch you in the face lose your Fitness isn't that the same [ __ ] that I just said lady that's not going to be up there Fitness if it's up there I swear to God I'm done lose your Fitness I'm done I'm putting the country that is what are the answers what do you think that is I mean no it's different manners oh the [ __ ] up lose your car I lose my carbs yes I've lost all of my cars because I got older illusion it looks is something I actually thought of come on man come on this is lose your Hue you don't freaking say I hate lose your money where's it going yeah all of those but no sight hearing mine none of that but you lose your cars God damn it you will lose your cars no you don't freaking say there Chuck Woolery now we gotta play in a whole another round yep oh my god dude I thought we were doing good Feud Fridays holy [ __ ] is this gonna be the one answer one no it might be actually who's up by the way oh God all right it's me number one answer only like uh I like our guys Ty is a nice tie on a little loose you know number one answer all right dude get loose with it okay all right opponent gets a chance all right I'm ready oh come on baby easy answer how many birds have to be number one Birds let's check really giving you an idea is there any other answer though I know right what else do cats chase the grass [Music] give us the wind all right oh man we gotta turn the sound down and stuff man I remember that oh my God I don't know if I'm ready I don't know if I'm ready we're gonna do it don't lose don't be sh H crappy I don't know if I'm ready for it all right Jones cover cover your ears all right I'm covering my eyes [Music] all right I'm lucky McCoy oh yeah who who do you want to be oh I'll be uh I'll be myself okay that's actually fair I like that testicles for the first one yeah I mean we haven't done that in a while I can hear the TV by the way that's fine I'll put my ears so I don't oh that's yeah that helps me because then I don't have to read I appreciate it I appreciate that can you hear me all right that's good number one answer is coming up okay animal that can jump higher than you can check in the box I mean honestly John's not a bad answer except that's not an animal oranges I mean if if they don't if they don't make the commissary table properly uh uh January Maybe not a bad answer but not a good one tell me what uh scissors I mean that'd be dangerous Jonas that'd be very dangerous um you're not supposed to you're not supposed I mean Jonas you can't really you can't really do that to this fruit I'm ready I'm pretty sure you can go to jail if you did that to this fruit if you did that to pineapples all right man you're up did you get good I did I got probably a lot of number one yeah so you're gonna I'm gonna get some ants you're gonna be in some dog houses all right well I'll go with I'll go some lower grade answers I'm all right with that yes all right uh let's see here then you can uh [Laughter] uh cat Fair okay uh chair oh [Music] I'm not mad at that this one a bat all right that's a good one that's the one I probably should have picked some coin and uh house oh I doubt that's gonna work but I like it walk walk the walk though oh [Music] good answers Jacob here we go good answers hell's to the yeah let's see okay well we will see well I just hate how like we have to do it then sit here quietly waiting for him to tell us the first name I know right I know but uh you'll get to see your house will not be up there but house is a good answer for flip yeah it is I liked it I think we might have this oh I think so I see a kangaroo I almost said kangaroo top answer and like the number two answer obviously that's pretty good starting out with would you put paycheck I thought paycheck was bigger I said script okay 20 it was the number one answer though it was not yours was yeah I don't know yours was number one answer oh okay cool yeah with 20 which is weird all right now this one you probably got me beat hockey stick you probably got me beat here coming in with a clutch still we're both up there I think we got it yeah the coin for sure is number one yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah he was telling us the top answer all right Walk the Line did you put line I did not I took it a little bit more piratical with it we'll get six barely what was the number one answer not gonna tell us you know what I don't care we did it Jonas we won dude you thought we were gonna lose because I couldn't get a right answer and then he even said it's a holiday edition they must recognize something and then there's no holiday question no no not a single holiday question but they know that's fine Jonas we did it we came through first episode back

Penguin Adventures in the South Polar Region - Chicago Field Museum bird curator John Bates
property so without further ado let me introduce tonight's Speaker John Bates is the curator of birds at the Field Museum and he's been doing that for the past 26 years John may not know it but he's about to set a record for the Lake Cook speaker invited back sooner than any other speaker we've had in the 12 or 15 years I've been involved with this chapter he spoke to us last March about the role of Museum bird Collections and documenting change in bird health in corresponding with John since then I learned about his adventures researching penguins in the South polar region and I know nobody likes Penguins everybody likes Penguins so I had to invite him back to tell the tale John grew up in Tucson which is why I think he became a lifelong birder he and his students studied the evolution and maintenance of biodiversity focusing primarily on South America and Africa This research includes analysis of genetic and traditional Museum specimen data there goes your specimens to address questions at the tips of tree of life for birds and other vertebrates he is actively interested in training new generations of biodiversity scientists in the regions everywhere he works John the floor is yours and the Penguins of course thanks Rina it's uh great to be here and uh thank you all for coming and I'm going to go ahead and get right into it because I've got a lot to show and and uh sunny and I did a little work checking things out with uh the presentation I've got a few Clips in here and so with a little luck they'll work so yeah I want to take you on a Expedition that I went on in January um and let me go into and if you know the field museum and and know our various logos this is one of the things that one of the slogans that we have Earth We're on it and they have this picture of the Earth and in this particular picture you know you can see South America that's a place I've spent a lot of time as Rena said I've spent a lot of time in Africa too as well as North America but uh a number of years ago the museum was uh uh was allowed to create an endowment through a donation from the pritzker family to create a center for meteoritics and polar studies and so what I'm going to talk today about is a completely different perspective on the planet and you can start realizing that that this is one of the most remote parts of the world um it's basically the features are ocean uh ice rock uh and snow and so you know it's an incredible area and to be honest with you it's an area that I never necessarily thought I would be able to go to but we had this uh Endowment for Polar studies and several colleagues of mine Susan Moretti and her postdoc at the time Jane younger came to me and said we'd like to write a trip a proposal to study penguins and Jane is the Penguin researcher she's Australian um and so we did and it got funded in 2019. and of course what happened in 2021 January which is when we were supposed to go originally was the trip got scuttled um pretty early on and we knew we we couldn't do it and then 2022 rolled around and we thought maybe we can pull it off and and to be honest with you is touch and go we left Chicago on December 26th which was a Sunday and the guy in the middle there Jacob Drucker one of my former graduate students needed to get a uh PCR covet test and we probably found the only place in the entire northern part of uh the region that was actually giving them that day and giving results and we were able to get on flights and the crew came from all over the place there there were nine of us on the research team uh there were several uh folks from and I'll talk about the the women who are actually the penguin researchers on this trip all the the four guys that were on the trip were all there basically to help out um but we met up in uh we all came into Heathrow Airport in the UK and we had to travel out to a Air Force Base called uh Breeze Norton and from there we were able to catch an Air Force plane which is the only way you can get down to the Falklands right now and it landed in Senegal to refuel and then got to the Falklands and we were putting a bus at the Air Force Base and driven an hour into the capital of the Falklands which is Stanley and we boarded this sailboat and the money that that we got from the pritzker fund was was almost entirely going towards chartering this specific sailboat which is a very special thing it's called the Vinson of Antarctica um it's designed for uh uh for high latitude sailing and the person that uh designed it is a guy named skip Novak who actually turns out is from Chicago but if we have any Sailors on the call this guy is an absolute Legend in in the sailing world with respect to to high latitude sailing and uh we boarded this boat there's a crew of three it's a 77-foot boat that was built in Norway and then sailed down to um the Falklands it'll be based out of South Africa I think from now on and just run trips to the to the uh to Antarctica and and the South polar areas and so this particular trip we went on uh was wonderful we got on the boat and what I have to say is uh I've never eaten so well on an expedition in my life all three uh uh of the crew were just incredible Cooks here we are in the first night eating squid on the boat and then I put a picture here on the left and I'm going to come back to later in the talk because there weren't a lot of boats around this time that you've you know in during the pandemic and things but there was this one small sailboat with a guy on it and you can see he's got a uh rack of some sheep on a sheep hanging on the skinned out sheep hanging on the back of his boat and I'm going to come back to him later in the talk but you know one of the guys on the uh one of the crew members Kenneth perdagon has written his own cookbook so again you know this was a wonderful trip from that perspective and it was a wonderful trip in terms of what we were trying to do and this was not clear up until the last minute that we actually wouldn't have to quarantine in the Falklands such that we would have only been able to have time to go to the Antarctic Peninsula or South Georgia but not both and in the end we were able to convince the uh skip Novak and the the folks at pelagic that that if we went to the Antarctic Peninsula first which is not the normal way to go we could come back to South Georgia deal with the quarantine issues if there were any and there weren't um and then be fine for the rest of the trip so this is uh these are eBird lists that were we put uh we made during the course of the trip we we left the Falklands which are 300 miles off the coast of South America there and headed straight for the Antarctic Peninsula and you can see the Antarctic Peninsula is this incredible uh piece of land that's about 800 kilometers long stretching out from the coast of from the continent of Antarctica into the What's called the scotiacy and then this area is called the Drake Passage which according to many people is one of the roughest uh seaways in the world and so along the way we're making uh lists I just want to also remind people that um we're going into the area where Ernest Shackleton and the Endeavor disappeared and of course it was found uh earlier this year at the cost of many millions of dollars um and it was perfectly preserved where it sunk in the ice back in 1915 but we are going to retrace what Shackleton did in his little row boat essentially as we go from the Antarctic Peninsula to South Georgia so once you get out in the open ocean you you immediately start seeing an avapha on a set of birds that are just uh completely different from anything I had a lot of experience with so this is a giant petrol it's a it's a either a young bird or a dark morph and here's another giant petrol Southern giant petrol and these are these heavy bodied uh long Birds which are long winged Birds which will come back up later on in the talk um there are teradroma petrols such as soft plumage petrol flying around um again medium-sized petrols with long wings Antarctic prions which are smaller birds that are uh often in quite large numbers and these guys Nest on South Georgia and so they're moving around across large swaths of ocean to to feed during the breeding season and then in the post-breeding season and remember that we left Chicago on December 27th which is basically the height of spring and summer in the southern hemisphere so we're down to experience summer temperatures temperatures range across the trip from uh anywhere from about 20 degrees to about 40 degrees and of course one of the things you want to see in the open ocean are albatrosses and to be honest with you I had actually been on numerous uh pelagic trips off San Diego as a kid and never done it at the right time of year and I had never seen an albatross before and so this is a I think a gray-headed albatross in the distance but as you get out there there are multiple species this is black brown Albatross which is quite common right around the Falklands because there's a large breeding Colony there this is gray-headed Albatross that this is a bird that doesn't breed in the Falklands but breeds on South Georgia this is light mantled Albatross and again another bird that breeds in south Georgia and some of these species are Colonial light Mandel tend to be solitary nesters they find Cliff faces uh on these uh montane islands that are that are out away from the Antarctic peninsula and then of course the thing you really want to see is is wandering Albatross and and I have to say that that they live up to every expectation I ever had it's an interesting bird biologically um because recent Studies have shown that they're somewhere around seven breeding populations scattered across all around Antarctica and every single one of those is genetically distinct so it's very likely that in the coming years people will begin to talk about uh Albert wandering Albatross is actually being uh seven different species because of the population genetics of the birds you do see them on the water once in a while although not very often and and these birds are going out from their nesting sites and in places like South Georgia and covering thousands of kilometers to forage for their uh for their uh chicks back on back on the islands so you go for about five days across the Scotia sea and Don comes one morning and you've reached the Antarctic Peninsula and now you're between the islands on the we're going down the the western side of the peninsula and there are islands buffering you from the sea and suddenly everything's completely calm and you're just in a completely different world of ice and snow and Rock and it's just incredibly beautiful this is uh you can see ice in the water and that's sushma ready who's the curator of birds at the Bell Museum um who is one of the co-pis on the trip there are animals like humpbacked whales uh around you foraging and in the foreground there are southern falmars and again these Landscapes just keep getting more and more amazing as as you continue South along these channels and just to give you an idea how big some of the Glaciers are that's a four-story boat there were very few uh uh commercial vessels in the region this year because almost half the companies decided to cancel all their trips because of covid and those that didn't were running on half capacity so there was not a lot of traffic here which is you know you're just reminded every once in a while that you're the only people probably for several hundred miles in any direction much of the time that you're on this uh that we were on this trip but you can see here that this Glacier is is a huge amount of ice coming down into the to this straight you can start to begin to see the pieces that have capped off and and and begin to form icebergs and the bluish color sometimes is a is a tip off to that and then you can see as you get closer and the water hits uh the light hits the water at different levels the colors can change dramatically and just be absolutely stunning is there's more fresh water um in the immediate area in this photo and then of course this is what we came for we came for penguins and you start seeing Penguins these are four or three chin straps sitting on a little patch of ice and as you get a little farther south you start to see a few more penguins and this is a mixture of chin straps and Antarctic gen twos and then suddenly we reach the destination that we're looking for which is a place called Port lochroy which is the southern most inhabited uh or post office in the world basically but there was nobody there this time of year because the vessels weren't coming in and so it wasn't uh manned but what you can see here are Gentoo penguin colonies below these incredible mountains and as you get closer you can start seeing the lines that the jinju penguins are making to get up to areas that are free of snow where they can build their nests and this is one of the species that we were interested in um here the the women that are that are part of this trip uh Jane younger again is an Australian who's now at the University of Tasmania Rachel Herman's a graduate student from uh uh SUNY Stony Brook in in New York sushma ready again is from the Bell Museum Gemma clucas is a postdoc at the Cornell lab of ornithology and then finally Katie O'Brien is a graduate student at uh the University of bath in the UK and all these women had research projects for which we were there to collect data for we were trying to sample fecal samples and and blood samples from as many penguins as we could in order to do genetic studies and diet studies as part of the various research projects that we these women had and you know just in the right before the trip not long before the trip one of uh Jane's uh students published a paper putting together morphology morphometric and genetic evidence for there being four species of Gentoo Penguins so I said that wandering Albatross is likely to be seven species based on its breeding biology well when you sample things from uh the Antarctic Gentoo penguins from the Antarctic Peninsula South Georgia the Falklands and then over in kirgalan Island which is on the other side of of Antarctica you find out that there's uh what we call reciprocal monifially meaning there's no evidence of gene flow in the genetic data between these populations and and uh Gemma sushma and Jane and their colleagues were arguing that these should be different species but they wanted to get more data from more populations and and and better understand some of the various characteristics of these Gentoo species across this geography so one of the things you'll see across the course of this talk is how much the Gentoo Penguins change in terms of what they're doing where they're breeding and then of course because of the time of year you'll see the chicks get bigger too as we go along so again we're the only people around there's a lot of rules on the boat about how to be uh thoughtful and careful with respect to cleaning your gear and not transporting things around this becomes particularly important when you get up to warmer places like South Georgia and and uh the Falklands but uh we're always thinking about safety of the group and and how we're moving around and we're basically going out and working on these colonies of these birds these are the stars of the show and as Rena said I mean no matter what you've heard about penguins uh and how cute you think they are they're cuter and in real life in these areas you know they're just absolutely wonderful animals um and the Landscapes they're in are just absolutely breathtaking so this is the skipper we would use this zodiac to get out to sites and then we would be able to go to work and the sites were in all kinds of different places uh what you can see there on the left is uh in that reddish brown stuff that's all guano so these are penguin droppings and you're basically landing and spending the day going around the penguin Colony Gathering samples this is Irby Lovett who's one of the professors in the Cornell lab of ornithology and again I can't express enough that for the most part penguins are as interested in you as you are in them and so they're just kind of they're just incredibly fascinating animals and they're often not alone at their colonies so this is one of the first places we went and and this is a Weddell seal that was actually sleeping for probably three hours or so and picked its head up for maybe 30 seconds before it went back to sleep and just looked at us and and decided just we weren't anything to worry about so again we were there collecting blood and fecal material this is fecal material of a penguin and it's almost entirely Krill you can tell by the color and krill is a is a crustacean uh it's a whole group of crustaceans but in Antarctica and off the Antarctic in the Antarctic ocean Krill forms uh a lot of the biomass that whales and Penguins and all these other creatures actually depend on once you get to the offshore Islands you get uh different surfaces these are much rockier and you can see here these these gen twos are are using a very uh Stony substrate they're Gathering Pebbles uh from around there to build up their their nest platforms and you can see the boat there in the background and in some of these colonies along the coast we would we would pick up chin strap Penguins too and chin straps are are like gentus they're more of a mid uh Antarctic area species um and as you'll see over the course of this talk some of the species are only found in in much warmer areas and then there's one other species that we were hoping to find down here which we did find a a few small numbers of and that was a deli penguin and the deli penguin was in uh there were a few adeli Penguins uh in a couple little colonies um this is the these are the the northernmost populations of a Delhi penguin for the most part a deli like emperor penguin is a bird that's more of the primary Antarctic Peninsula and yet a few populations uh move up here and they're just they're a spectacular little bird and and one of the things I'm fascinated by is morphologically I don't know of many birds whose eyes appear to be sort of set at basically the side of their bill um where their gape is and so they're they're a really interesting bird in terms of their morphology and and I'd like to know more about what they do in terms of their feeding habits Penguins aren't the only thing there are populations of things like uh Antarctic shags which are which is a species of Cormorant from down here and and uh they're quite colorful looking um with their blue eye rings and and big uh uh skin patches on their uh on the top of their Nares and so I just want to remind you here that that we'll see how this goes as penguins are aquatic species and that's something that struck me over and over again towards the course of the trip as as you see them all that we're working with them all the time on land but you know this is what they're really good at and really adapted for and this is a mixture of gentus and chin straps just right off one of the colonies just going around there's probably some Krill uh down on the bottom and and they're just they're going down and getting samples and then coming getting food and then coming back up and again you're in this area where the old there are no airplanes going over there are no Sirens there's you know this is a special part of the world so one of the things you immediately see too though is that sometimes the penguins are going around like this these are some of these Gen 2 penguins and they're in a big group and the reason they're in big groups like that is that there are predators in the area this is a leopard seal and these guys are very poorly known in terms of their biology they're not very uh they're not in high densities at all there's usually one or two individuals hanging around a given colony and they're just incredibly ferocious Predators capable of basically catching a penguin and physically turning it inside out just pulling the skin out to get the body out and eating them and I'll come back to uh leopard seals a little later on and because of all this there there's scavengers out here so here's one example of a scavenger this is the one of the larger ones um South Pole or scua and then there's also this incredible bird called uh snowy sheath Bill there are only two species of sheet bills in the world and they're entirely found on in Antarctica and and occasionally reach up to places like South Africa and they look like a cross between a pigeon and a Gull I guess I don't know but uh they're capable of flying out over the ocean open ocean because they leave the Antarctic peninsula in the Antarctic winter and spend the winter in in places like the Falkland Islands and so they are capable of moving but they spend almost all their their time hanging around the colonies Scavenging and one of the things I find interesting is an evolutionary biologist is that if you look at the ages of the groups that these birds are part of um you can trace back the lineages of penguins and their their uh these animals that are Scavenging around the penguin colonies back about 25 million years so this is a set of interactions that's been going on for a very very long time so one thing we were not sure we were going to be able to do on this trip was uh do much collecting in the sense of uh of in this case uh salvaging material that we found but it turns out that a lot of eggs on penguin colonies get robbed by skewas and and taken to the side and opened up and so we were able to find a number of eggs to to collect at the various sites and the goal is to look at the differences in egg structure between these areas that include the Antarctic Peninsula South Georgia and the Falkland Islands we were also collecting uh vocal data which was uploaded to the Macaulay library at Cornell and this is Jacob in all his gear um recording a couple of kelp goals that are flying over in addition and this is a the researchers that work in Antarctica tend to be a fairly diverse and widespread group but they're also fairly well networked and so one of the things that Gemma was doing for some of her colleagues was uh reloading batteries that people hadn't been able to get to for almost a year on some of these uh penguin colonies and one of the great things about these sites as these these cameras is they take a picture every day which gives you an idea of the weather conditions and how they're changing on a much more fine scale for these penguin colonies over the course of a of a season so I just wanted to to remind people that although this is a spectacular remote area it's being a excess accessed a lot more by people and I would say that's a good thing and yet at the same time and once we got back there was a paper that I I noticed online that that was published that was basically looking at black carbon which is essentially soot that comes out of of diesel or diesel engines and is getting on the snow and the researchers estimate that this is leading to decreased snow coverage um to some extent across the entire parts of the Antarctic Peninsula that people are visiting and so you know it's just a reminder that and this will be clear over the course of this talk but even in a place as remote as this humans have some kind of uh impact and activity with their activities all right so I said this was an ambitious talk so now we're going to work our way back to South Georgia and just because I forgot to say this this triangle between South Georgia the Falklands and then the Antarctic Peninsula is about the same as it is going from Chicago to New Orleans to Denver and then back to Chicago so you know this is not a small distance to travel by sailboat and again we're getting out in the ocean to go for probably another four days four and a half days to get to South Georgia now and again I'm reminded I was reminded of how Oceanic these penguins really are when you see a group of chin straps several miles off the the Antarctic Peninsula the islands on the Northern tip of the Antarctic Peninsula out foraging and of course on board we have to spend a lot of time together so we managed to do quite well in terms of getting along um and as I said the food was wonderful but just I wanted to give you an idea what the Scotia seed can potentially be like and how the boat's designed to handle this so if you'll notice there's an Armature on the stove for those pressure cookers that allows them to basically rotate with the rolling of the boat and uh Kenneth here is cleaning up everything is bolted down or tied down so that it won't open as the boat rocks and we're going to stand across the clip here and you'll see uh Bryce Johnson who's a graduate student in Cornell lab and the spectacular artist working and then you'll see what up from the output portal the boat with the with the ocean there's Bryce working away despite the fact that the ship is rolling [Music] foreign and then you can begin to see what these southern oceans look like on a day that's probably not all that rough but certainly rough enough and as the boat goes up and down water will eventually come over the top of the portal the boat is literally rocking enough that it can be pretty hard to stay steady and everybody's different I got seasick a number of times on the various trips but I always got better and other people were a lot had a lot it affected them a lot more but once again you travel all across this rough ocean and Don comes and and you've reached the uh the Eastern tip of South Georgia Island on the North side and suddenly you get into these Bays where it's completely calm again so we're still south of What's called the polar front which is where the cold water of the Antarctic ocean meets up with the the the Atlantic Ocean in this region um and this is what South Georgia looks like and this is the actual uh chart or the recording of the of the ships uh sensor um for where we went and this is why you take a sailboat like this which is that we had complete freedom to chart the areas we wanted to go to and get into these uh little areas um all of which have colonies of of penguins and and do the kind of sampling that we wanted to do also I'll point out that this is the area you'll notice that that area in white that's all glaciers and mountains and when Shackleton came across in his boat I still think one of the most amazing things is that he had to land on the south side of the South Georgia and get over the top of the mountains there uh to get to the whaling stations that were on the north side and this is what this looks like from from the north side as you're driving along or sailing along in the boat to different spots again south Georgia has a long history of human activities the Europeans and the Americans came down in the late 1800s and into the all the way into the 1950s harvesting whales and and uh fur seals and uh just not really thinking about anything else other than how many animals they could actually cash in process and so there are a number of large uh decaying processing stations along the North Shore of of South Georgia today this is grid Vicken which is the only habited uh place on all of South Georgia and they've turned it into a museum to uh essentially and and you can see some of the old whaling boats and what they what they looked like and then you can also notice that in the foreground there's a bunch of sea lion uh four seals and you'll see this over and over again on South Georgia um first seals have come back dramatically since the times when they were harvested by the thousands by visiting uh sealers there's a little uh Cemetery in Grid picking which is famous for being where uh what's his name is buried I'll uh with his head towards the South Pole um what I want to emphasize here though is that for me I was more taken by the grave of a of a Argentine seamen and it's easy to forget that in 1982 humans actually fought a war over South Georgia and the Falkland Islands and this was he was the only fatality he was shot on a on a submarine that the British had captured in south Georgia Shackleton so this is shackleton's grave um in in south Georgia Edward Vicken I said before that one of the things that they're really worried about is they're you're constantly told as you're going ashore to make sure that you've cleaned out all your stuff that you've looked through all the seams on your uh your Gore-Tex and and and things to make sure there are no seeds there and when you get on Shore you can see why so here's a native uh plant with the the redheads but I think most of you have probably already figured out what the plant in the middle is it's a dandelion and uh we were told by some of the conservationists that we met at one of the at around good Bicken that they don't not sure they're be able to exterminate uh dandelions at the same time South Georgia has had some major success stories and perhaps the biggest one is in the late 1990s and and early 2000s they began to uh try to eradicate mice and rats from the island and they were successfully able to do it and if you look at the literature one of the things you'll find is there there are endemic Birds including the the southernmost uh endemic passerine bird in the world called South Georgia pippet that were beginning to be found only on the offshore islands where there weren't rats and mice and yet since 2000 in the eradication one of the neat things about that is these birds have come back now you'll see that that here at a couple of my colleagues again landing on South Georgia is just incredible because of what you get to see so the sea lion the first seals are so thick along the beaches that you're literally required to carry a stick and the stick is not to hit them but the stick is literally to point it at them and they will uh they can be somewhat aggressive and hint that they're going to charge you but as long as you have something out in front of them they'll actually come back and so you can see a couple of my colleagues cleaning themselves off after a day on shore and again they're literally all along the beaches there's a male and and females the males are are quite large and this time of year because the pups are actually fairly far along they're not quite as Territorial and just to give you an idea what it sounds like I wanted to to play this for you all right so this is the typical sound on the beaches of these first seals just going 24 hours a day during this time of year and this king penguin has just come to Shore and I'll come back to things so a lot of these beaches are literally just thick with with baby fur seals this time of year here's the skua and then these are molting uh King Penguins which I'll come back to a little later in the clock and there's Jane so there's South Georgia pippet again this is the southernmost uh breeding passerine bird in the world um and we found it to be present in every single site we went to whereas if you look at the literature from around 2000 they literally are telling people that that these birds are beginning to be found only on the offshore Islands because of the rats and and mice and again those have been eradicated there's also an endemic pintail and again this was we've had these birds at every site and sometimes big numbers up to we had a group of up to 80 at one of the sites so that they've become they've come back to the mainland in big numbers and here you can see both endemic Birds together and recognize that even these birds are actually using the penguin colonies for food and there's really only one species of insect on South Georgia it's a little fly and they definitely like the penguin colonies and there's a pippet in the foreground and then a a South Georgia pintail around this colony of Gentoo penguins and notice that the Gentoo Penguins now aren't breeding on rocks they're actually breeding on what was tussock and it's fairly wet and also that the chicks are now or have gone from being quite small which is what they were on the Antarctic Peninsula to being much larger now and that's partly because these birds on South Georgia are able to start breeding much earlier and times passing now there are other marine mammals that are that are pulling up on the beaches these are southern elephant seals and they're pulling up this time of year these are actually just young ones for the most part but they're pulling up to um to basically molt they shed their skin uh um in big thick rolls of of uh skin along the beaches this time of year and then they also jostle for space with one another so these are probably young males I mean you can already see that they hold some of these scars that they'll get over the course of their lifetimes all right so now I want to come back to that picture I showed you of the guy leaving the Falklands Stanley and the Falklands a while ago this is his boat it's a Peregrine his name is Leif poncet and he's the son of the primary the foremost conservation biologist in the Falklands in south Georgia Sally Ponce it and he sailed by himself to South Georgia and it turns out our captain is uh owns an island in south Georgia or in seen the Falklands sorry and uh nose Leaf fairly well and invited him over over for dinner one night on our boat when we met up in one of the harbors uh one of the one of the Bays that we were stopping in in in south Georgia and during dinner he said to us well you guys are ornithologist when I was sailing across the uh between the Falklands and South Georgia this yellow bird with a gray back landed on my boat and This was later in the evening and people thought about it a little bit and nobody thought much more about it and the next day Leaf was leaving the harbor and stopped by our boat to say hi and he came on board and he said John here's here's here's the picture I took of this bird and my jaw just hit the absolute ground ah so I think everybody will probably recognize this as a prothonotary warbler that red arrow is where he was and the yellow and blue are the breeding and wintering ranges of prothonotary warbler so this bird I keep saying the best bird on the trip was something that we never saw but this is just an incredible record of uh North American bird that is clearly way off course although I will point out that about the same time of year this is now we're talking mid-January um some of the researchers on the Galapagos working on Galapagos finches had a prothonotary warbler show up on one of their field sites so protonetaries clearly can get around and who knows what happened to this bird but he landed on a little sailboat out in the middle of nowhere and somebody was smart enough to take a picture of him and on the Antarctic peninsula there are almost no plants and you get to South Georgia and suddenly you're seeing uh things like bryophytes and lichens and and and the lot so the diversity goes a lot at long a long ways up and that's loud largely a slide for my botany friends um but there is some really interesting botanizing that could be done on these sites one of the other things the folks from Cornell have done was they'd gotten licenses to be able to fly drones and this was allowing Gemma to gather data for her colleagues on some other neat aspects of these colonies which is to basically get a picture of colony size through aerial photography and so this is a chin strap penguin Colony at South Georgia and this is what the tiled together photographs look like of that Colony um on the right and so gem is working through those data to look at those and again all this provides Baseline for for future work so I've said you know you've already seen how Gentoo Penguins appear to like elevated habitat or places in a lot of their breeding sites it was interesting to get to South Georgia and see that that was still true so here's a picture of a typical um island or site along the shore in south Georgia you've got a big mass of tussock grass you've got uh on the right hand side you've got elephant seals pulled up all along you've got uh first seals you've got a group of King Penguins in the middle oftentimes there are fur seals hiding in the tussock grass and so you have to be very careful when you're walking through it and a lot of times it's over your head and you can't see what's around the next corner and it could be a first Hill so you have to be careful and then if you look at where the green ends on the right hand side of the highest hump there in the center part of the screen what you'll see is uh some things that look like white dots and that's another Gentoo penguin colony and so we hiked up there to to work on those birds and this is what it looks like looking back the other direction and you'll notice actually there's a very large boat on the left hand side of the screen that was the only truly large uh commercial uh vessel that we saw the entire time it was a French vessel that was basically there for probably three hours before it headed off down to the Antarctic Peninsula and and you know the women on our trip have actually been able to do their research sometimes working on these kinds of tourist vessels but one of their the problems is the vessels have a limited amount of time and keep moving and so one of the great things for them on this trip was that we could literally spend all day working on the colonies and Gathering data so here's one of the next penguin species that we were able to work with which is macaroni penguin I like to call them the toucan of the penguin family from my perspective they really are just wonderful looking birds and they're part of this genus uh udiptes that is known for liking to nest in Rocky habitats and and and also to go up very steep slopes to get to them so this is a colony of probably close to a thousand Birds and it was actually so wet and rainy the time we were there that we decided it wasn't safe for us to try to to work our way up these Cliff faces to try to to work with this with this particular colony of macaroni penguins and so you know they're quite able to get to places and just to the right of that colony is a large colony of gray-headed albatrosses and we were able to get to at least one or two nests uh close to one or two nests on the edge of one of the colonies there and and again they're just absolutely spectacular Birds these uh all these penguin species are are very doting parents one member of the pair will go off in forage and then relieve the other pair and as they get bigger you can see these chicks are are you're not gonna sit on top of them but uh but they're still watching over them and at the same time they have these occasional disputes with their neighbors which is this I caught this on camera and you can see the the ridges on the inside of the the roof of the mouth which are probably designed to help with uh holding on to fish and things like that so just to give you an idea what these colonies sound like they can be very noisy and so I wanted to play uh South Georgia Gentoo penguin and then Macaroni Penguin you can also see that the the chicks are very good at uh spending extra net out away from the nest all right [Applause] now those these chicks are are still basically some some at this period of time they're growing so fast and they're so fat but a lot of times they're just laying around um because they can't move that well but that'll change very quickly You Can Dance [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] all right now I'll get to king penguin again probably my favorite it's an incredible bird they're about uh three feet tall um they're just absolutely Majestic as adults um and again they're dealing with the other animals around them this is a young elephant's seal that was cutting off one of the streams that the birds were going up what do you do if you're a emperor penguin in that case I guess you just wait and South Georgia is famous for the size of these colonies so here's a group of South uh or King Penguins you can see some of the juveniles on the front I'll come back to that in a second but this Colony has 50 000 birds in it so you can't even begin to get it in a single photograph in in many ways and you can see that there are young birds spoke uh spread out through that entire thing this is what these young birds look like and it's an amazing biology story because they spend 10 months on the on the shore before they're they're ready to begin to molt to get back into to get into the ocean for the first time and so the adults are having to go out and feed them all through the winter and into the next year and then there are these molting birds and and they look like absolutely miserable individuals a lot of times with these mixtures of of this this juvenile plumage and and getting into their adult plumage and so you know how you find your Offspring or your mate in a in a population of 50 000 uh or a hundred thousand King Penguins I have no idea but they've clearly figured it out over the the time that they've uh evolved on these wonderful islands and every once in a while you're doing your work and you look back and you realize what the landscape looks like and what kind of place you're in and it's just absolutely amazing now again penguin lives are tough this is a bird we spotted that had come up on shore if you notice that that shape of that is a half circle which is almost well it's it's a leopard seal basically has gotten this adult penguin and it's come ashore and then if you look at the right you can see the head of a giant petrol and this giant petrol was just doing everything it could to jab at this wound and make it worse and you start realizing that that it's not a good idea to get injured even around these scavengers in this part of the world and giant petrols are fascinating in terms of their biology so they're still they forage out at Sea and yet at the same time you'll see them with sticking their heads into incredibly feeded uh uh carcasses of uh fur seals and having no qualms about it so they're they're just they're spectacular uh uh scavengers we were able to scavenge a few specimens for the museum uh in for two museums for the Bell Museum in Minnesota and for us um from skeletons and then we had one or two fresh carcasses that we found that we that we actually skinned so now we're back to the Falklands and I'm just going to spend a couple of minutes really quickly finishing up on the Falklands they're a very different Island now we're north of the Polar front um it's very flat it's very uh British it's uh despite what the argentinians think it's covered in sheep um and the Sheep is a sheep is on the very logo for the for the islands and we were lucky enough to go out to again there's there are introduce rats and cats and mice on all the big Islands such that a lot of the Native fauna there are now 63 species of birds here including 16 endemics like the striated caracara but a lot of these birds have been pushed out to where they're only found on the outlying islands and we went to a spectacular place called sea lion Island which is the southernmost inhabited Island um in the Falklands and there's a place you can stay there that's run by a spectacular couple the Island's about four kilometers long and it's it's filled with most of the uh the birds that you can see in the Falklands these are steamer Ducks which uh some populations actually have lost the ability to fly um and they're found in the in southern Argentina and Chile but they've gotten out to the Falklands this is a female kelp Goose which is uh there are four species and this genus clofaga that have that have gotten out to the Falklands that also inhabit the southern tip of South America and then there are things that are slightly more familiar this is a member of the genus Turtles just like our American robin except it's at the endemic species Australia Thresh to the Falklands then there are little things like this white bridled Finch which is an endemic species to the endemic species in Argentina but that gets out to the Falklands and then this is a meadowlark again from Southern South America that's reached the Falklands and then I'm guessing people know what this is because you're going to have a talk about this in a little while but this is a Black Crown Night Heron but again Black Crown Night Heron has gotten all over the world and in a place like the Falklands it's gotten there and the gene pool is considered distinct enough that that people are beginning to call it a separate species foreign so one of the great things about these places like the Falklands is you have the chance to see some of the other marine mammals this these are these are Antarctic fur seals that we saw that looked like they were scared about something and a little while later we realized what they were scared on this is a pot of four killer whales two adults and two juveniles that were clearly following these fur seals and keeping track of them and had they gone back into the water they would have probably been dinner but again we were here because they're they're penguins and in this case there are three species these are Falkland Gentoo penguins and you can see they're on these uh tussock grass areas and now the chicks are so big that they're actually following around the adults like Keystone Cops trying to to get the adults to give them food and they're they're really beginning to get old enough to to go back out and to go out for the first time into the open ocean the other species that are here are magellanic penguin which is in the genus veniscus and this is the same genus as uh Galapagos penguin and another species in South Africa and then the last bird that I want to mention is is this guy which people may be able to guess is a rockhopper penguin and this is a southern rockhopper penguin and they're absolutely beautiful little birds living on these rocks and not only are they living on these rocks just like the macaroni penguins they like breeding sites that are in unbelievable places relative to the ocean so this is a probably about a 100 120 foot cliff with a narrow crevice that these rockhopper penguins are literally going up and down all the time to feed their young during the breeding season and it just I was unbelievable and this day the wind was blowing out across the uh this area at about 40 kilometers a mile an hour and I wouldn't get near the edge because I didn't want to get blown off but Out on the Ocean there were black brown albatrosses going by there there's a big colony of shags along the uh Cliffs and it's just an absolutely amazing place and so I'm going to finish there and I just you know there's a bunch of people to acknowledge I'm really appreciative of all the governments and and the crew that we had was just absolutely amazing and everybody was really generous with their time uh like Sally ponson and Mickey Reeves and Sarah cross at Sea Lion Island and then of course this was all about the Penguins and and we got an incredible data set again if you're interested in more photos of some of the other birds you can go on the trip report and I'll just finish up by saying that that you know here's this uh magellanic penguin going off to the ocean on an incredible busy day and and or windy day with very high seas and you realize that the these birds are out there just doing what they've been doing for millions of years and I sure hope we figure out ways to make sure that they continue doing that for millions of years into the future thanks very much wow uh I I would have loved to be on that Adventure except for the uh the rocking of the boat but amazing amazing thank you John um I did start a couple of I think sunny and I both had a couple of uh questions I'm sure that people have more but um I'll start a couple of things first of all how many species of penguin are in there in the world so right now there are about 28 or so depending on your taxonomy and and one of the reasons why I mean ornithologists or ornithologists and some people haven't accepted the arguments for the Gentoo species um but if you look at it if you look at most Penguins Genera what you'll find is like for instance in the udipties the rock opera genus there's an awful lot of geographic populations that have become more differentiated in plumage than the jintus are but they're probably equally genetically distinct okay and I was also going to ask um because you were I mean obviously the islands had different habitat and and everything but was there something you said a little bit about this I put this question in the chat before you mentioned some of this but is there something is there some reason why you had you know one island with three species and another island with three different species is it habitat is there climate difference is there yeah so so what I would say is is uh it's it's sort of goes with harshness of climate as you get to higher and higher latitudes so if you start in in Antarctica you've got one species breeding in the middle of Antarctica and that's that's Emperor penguin and then as you get close to the edge of the Antarctic continent you pick up a deli penguin and then as you move up and get a little bit uh into a little bit nicer areas along the peninsulas when you start picking up gen twos and macaronis and chin straps and then the genus veniscus is definitely adapted for even more warm climates now how I mean it's they're still uh they're still pelagic birds that are going out in the ocean to feed but but obviously Humboldt penguins have made it all the way to the Galapagos and been able to to survive out there in part because that's a uh often a cold current climb uh Cold current area with a lot of upwellings for them okay um Sonny asked how did it smell you know I guess what I would say is not good but at the same time it's like you're out there by yourself and and you don't smell very good after a while either and so you just don't worry about I mean it's definitely a messy job handling penguins and and so but but you know for the for the researchers you're together all the time the entire focus is doing the is getting the data that we're trying to get and so I it's just it just never bothered me that much but but that's definitely something I've gotten used to over the years in various places okay um Jack is asking to you to talk a little bit more about how the motion sickness was handled you can see we're all like yeah no that's that's uh so the trip was about 30 38 days long or so and and what I'd say is is you know you're given a lot of uh uh coaching with respect to what you might try so there are patches and what I found out is the patches don't stick to me very well for reasons I can't explain so so the patches didn't work but I started taking Dramamine and Dramamine worked fine for me and then there were several of my colleagues who literally would disappear for four or five days at a time including hardcore penguin researchers which I found fascinating so I mean it's not and and I don't think there's anything they can do they just literally know that this is going to happen and they'll come up and eat some crackers at some point and then by the time the water gets you know you get into the bays and things it's calm again and and they come back out and they're ready to go that would be a big deterrent for me but um let's see oh that's an interesting question to the to the different species under breed I don't know of any evidence of that I don't know of anybody that's that I I will have to look into that but I have I have known have no knowledge of there being hybrid penguins which is a very interesting thing and I'll give you an example of of that because we're on one of the outlying islands on the Antarctic Peninsula and it was a colony of jintus and chin straps that probably had I don't know up to 600 to a thousand pairs of both of those species and there were two or three Macaroni Penguin nesting within that colony so the crazy thing there is they had to get there and they had to find a mate in order to reproduce and so I I don't know I I don't know how whether the uh you know macaroni penguins in that case are traveling around as a pair in the ocean and get lost and then end up colonizing these sites I mean one of the one of the research projects of uh one of The Graduate students is to look into Gentoo Penguins on the Antarctic Peninsula because they're actually gradually moving further south on the peninsula and it's very possible that that's the result of global warming that's opening up areas for them to breed and so that species is doing well enough that that it's actually expanding its populations which probably means that there aren't enough good nesting sites in some of the areas towards the tip of the peninsula such that individuals are looking for other places along the peninsula over time you can see the chat so I'm going to let you look uh a few more questions so how are rats and mice eradicated so so they use uh uh poison trap boxes and the good news on this these places is there's probably not another a lot of other things to eat the poison and so it's it's actually not is unreasonable or difficult a thing to do as it is here for instance um but it can be harder in some places than others and I actually think it was possible in south Georgia largely because the island is so glaciated that there really is just a narrow band of habitable vegetation for rats and mice and everything else right along the coast and they were able to go in and and do that there's another Island um in the in the this part of the world called GAO or go or uh g-o-u-g-h which you may have heard of and there was an there's an endemic Finch there and um their all these islands have gotten Rats on them if the if the early uh Europeans and and sealers and Whalers got there um and they just tried to they had a big push to get rid of rats and mice and weren't able to do it and once if you aren't able to do it completely obviously they're rats and mice and the populations start coming back really quickly and so they're trying to decide what to do on GAO so it's a it's a big challenge okay there you missed one from Terry so let's do that one and then Genesis and then we'll call it a night yeah will there be any special penguin exhibit at the well you know there already are some some exhibits on Penguins um we're actually talking to Peggy McNamara we've got a book proposal in the works so we want to do a little uh book along the lines of the series that Peggy's done over the years and so that's the thing we're really thinking about um no but but uh you know for example because of the Salvage work we were able to average you know add five new species of of skeletal material uh of penguins to the collection and you know we've got some penguin Richards that are very interested in getting access to that material yeah who is the good question so so the so the governments of these places are very interesting the Falklands are uh have an independent government but they voted to stay with the part of the British Commonwealth South Georgia is part of the British Commonwealth it has a government but that government all lives in the Falklands and so the only the only the only when we were there there were only 12 people living at the one research station at grid Bicken in in south Georgia But but so one of the reasons why I know all this is in order to get permits you have to deal with all these different agencies the Antarctica is an entirely different thing so we were able to do everything associated with our trip through the uh US Government because the U.S government issues permits to to U.S researchers but that's also true for Australian researchers they go through the Australian government and so Antarctica is governed by a large Antarctic treaty among all the a whole bunch of potential Nations including Nations that you would never expect would have any interest or had thought about Antarctica at all like New Guinea was part of the original Antarctic treaty and there's a the Spaniards have stations a bunch of a bunch of countries that that you might not think of have stations somewhere either on the Antarctic Peninsula or on the the continent and so but you get permission through the U.S government for U.S researchers going there and so with respect to sorry with respect to eradicating rats so that was the folks like Sally Ponce um and the people in the Falklands that are involved in the south in administering things for South Georgia making this a decision to go in there they did other things like there were reindeer on these islands and so in order to get rid of the reindeer they actually hired special Norwegian Hunters to go in and with helicopters and actually uh get rid of the reindeer euphemistically speaking Yeah Yeah okay Janice let's do Janice's question and then we'll uh call it an evening is there aggression between the penguin species so so what what so I have a picture of a chin strap penguin uh being harassed no it's a chin strapsman penguin harassing a Macaroni Penguin but what I would tell you is penguins are unbelievably docile organisms and there you often I mean you'll see the nests side by side I think they they they will regularly steal Pebbles if that's what the nest substrate is in the area from each other's nests um but outright aggression is actually not very common I mean these are these birds are I think I think you can make an argument that that they're living in a in a environment that where they have to spend all their time concentrating on raising their young and they really can't afford to waste time doing other stuff and so they don't and predation in General on land if you take away the introduced species is really non-existent except for the scavengers that are hanging around and and so they can afford to put their time and effort into to effectively raising their young and and they are not very aggressive towards each other at all I I never saw King Penguins be aggressive to any of the other species of the right to ask the very last question heard to me and I had thought about it before is the time of year that you were there is that their breathing season yep because they were ticks yep so so so we went in the height of the summer so so the summer starts um begins in November and uh people recommend if you're doing field work on Penguins um a lot of the Penguins actually Nest begin to nest in uh uh December um but the pro one of the problems with going earlier is that's when the first seals are actually um pairing up and mating and the males are really aggressive at that time so it's that's hard and one thing I should point out is the first seals aren't really aggressive towards the Penguins either so they're sharing these beaches and and just walking around next to one another and you see very little activity between the two well as you can see everyone loved the program thank you so much John and um yeah I think you were very lucky to go but I know you're there's a reason they chose you so thank you again for sharing with us and um I'm mute Sonny so we can all say thank you thanks everyone no it's my pleasure thank you thank you thank you we'll look forward yep yep thank you good night everyone oh Jill Dorfman Janice Becker that's all Janice we do um you know there was a request by Mike Stein for these yeah I'll have to get that from John I I wrote I wrote it down but it might not okay thanks everyone Hi everybody bye

Darth Vader, Mona Lisa and The Golden Mean
okay this is mona lisa she's a lady from very early 16th century italy um and she was painted by a guy called leonardo da vinci and it took him about 15 years to do it um and it turned out to be the most famous painting ever now i've got this theory that mona is the great great great great great great great great great great great granddaughter of darth vader the reason i think this is because of a thing called the golden mean which is a mathematical ratio which turns up in arts and architecture and nature a lot the ancient greeks used the design of the parthenon and leonardo da vinci used it all the time artists have been using it sort of throughout i think the latest twitter website design is based on it and the icloud logo new icloud logo is as well um and i used i use these things to measure it on the golden mean calipers which are made out of laser-cut stainless steel put together by me like so that my kind of stretchy thing is it used to anyway um back to darth there you are funny darth there he is um the distance from the top of his helmet to the bottom of his chin there's a sort of point right there which is kind of the eyebrow line this helmet he's got a helmet with eyebrows um i've never ever seen any helmet with eyebrows except this one but you know i guess you do what you have to do um likewise distance from the bottom corner to the top meets at the the eyebrow line there so those are special eyebrows it's a bit kind of woolly but more accurate the distant the height of his eye compared to the distance between the bottom of his eye and this little light thing is spot-on that's a golden mean and the width of one eye compared to the width of our eye plus nose is the golden mean as well um what else we got the width of one eye to the edge of the helmet that's a golden amine and says sort of mouth chin nosy area is made up of two triangles um the height of which they're both golden mean where you show that um i think if you take both of those combined like so yep and sure enough it meets right in the middle of us everything fits together neatly and the same principles supply with moona herself so if you take from the bottom of the chin to the hairline the golden mean point was right between our eyes that and the width of one eye that's the same as the other eye plus nose and i think the width of the nose yeah there you go give or take a bit of eye shadow and the distance between nose and mouth and chin and mouth anyway so i think it's fairly obvious that mona lisa is a direct descendant of darth vader or whoever it was that designed darth vader's mask and sort of helmet and you know i mean looking at this it's pretty clear that leonardo da vinci probably designed both you

UnIFi VS EdgeSwitch & Quick Review of the EdgeSwitch48 Lite
so I've done plenty of reviews of the unify switches in the unify product line and the unified controller software that makes this all work and why is it MSP we like the unify and the visual it gives you inside of a client's network but what I haven't talked about much is the edge switches and why you would want an edge switch versus the other one well they're a different color but of course that's probably the least significant difference right through my box way we should probably do a quick comparison here they both have 40 ports they both have two one get one gig SFP to 10 gig SFP RJ sir rj45 serial console management to get into command line which I've never used on any of the unified products because I've never broke one they've always worked which is makes me really happy the intuitive of Mac's web UI versus the unified controller software that's where the first major difference comes in now this is not just the same hardware there's different functionality inside of these and why would you choose an edge switch so I figured we'll cover that first before we come to review the short answer is the edge switch is probably geared a little bit more to the enterprise environments where you want to be able to command line manage things and I've seen people even write some scripts where you could use ansible or puppet because this does SSH or you can do mass management now you're on why the command line well you have the web UI which will get you all the basic functions but if you've worked at an enterprise environment or you're a Linux enthusiast like myself you realize the power of the command line even Microsoft has had to realize the power of the command line I sure wouldn't exist without some of the things they did command line because that's the easiest way when you have large mass amounts of things that you need to configure you can push configurations out over SSH that being said that's where a lot of power is now there's also a lot of power needs because they support routing and the routing on the support you have for these it's a layer 3 routing so you can add some static routes now this does not support to my knowledge or maybe they will in the future but I don't think there's really enough horsepower to do this like some of your more advanced like OSPF type routing features but you do have the ability at static routes on the port so that is a kind of a specific use case but there are those use cases when you're setting things up that you may want to do that so if you have certain routes that need to follow certain rules and you want to do it at the switch level and throw static route in the splits your network in a special way that is something you can do with this so that being said let's tear into it and actually look at what this take a look at this system here so unboxing the overhead camera turned on it's solid it's the usual unified makes really nice it's heavy it's got just an overall good feel to it we are gonna pop it open to look inside though but it comes with the same things that the other unified switch comes with so you got your rack ears power cable some screws to mount the rack gears on your rack nuts your quick little getting started guide no because this has its own web interface you need to log into it it doesn't work like the unifier you adopted in a controller software so you don't get that cool visualization that you get with the unified software but it's like I said in even why do we even have this here right now it's because this has a client destination that has specific use cases that fit this it also has we don't manage the client with the unify it's going into an integrated network where they actually need a couple specialized things unfortunate I can't take you to the clients site because it's more fun NDA stuff and the nature of the business they work in doesn't allow me to show you the unsightly set up for it everything else but it is going in because it has a special use case it will be mated with some other equipment and have just some VLANs and all that fun stuff set up now this does have all the other the usual support that you're going to find on a managed switch that you find any other unified lines of managing the VLANs and everything else but you're all going to do everything and we'll get into this the web interface on this will show you the basics of the webinar page so let's pop this open those I'm curious what it looks like inside because I have that opened one these up though because I haven't reviewed them before we've deployed but not reviewed so we're you know gonna we're gonna take a look inside that on the back here we get your power it still has how many volts is that is a 25 volt DC power so you can do that for I believe redundancy or if you're plugging into a rack that has that type of power setup and it's got your Council that like I said I've never tested the council on these I never had one break to the point I'm doing this firmware updates have actually all gone really smooth which makes me really really happy and then the front the usual like I said it's physically very similar to the unified line that once I've done playing reviews before in the front so that being said let's take a look inside so switch comes apart like the other one unifies you just a couple screws in there holding it on interesting side note this has a little bit of a dowel pin that goes in here and a couple what I'm assuming are these pads feel like thermal pads so I guess they help dissipate the heat from the heat sinks on here that mean my assumption the system vents out the back so you have two small fans and like the other unify switches that I've reviewed they are modular which I really like that that way if you have to replace a fan because these are not always put in the environments that I would prefer them to be put into and undoubtably all of us have seen a dusty switch or seen dust as the cause of death of a switch I unfortunately good news I have not had any in the unified ones did in the field yet but at least they do make them modular here and because events in through the side out through the back pretty straightforward here so you got your two large heat sinks a couple smaller ones for the processing on here now sight note is I like the way the power supply itself is also modular so there's four screws holding the power supply module in and you can simply just pop off the connectors and swap it out so if you ever had to service this in the field you don't need to bring your soldering gun with you that's a certain advantage when you've had to do replacements and slide it out and you know that the hell that is that so that is a certainly a pain in a butt but this is fairly straightforward I mean not as nice as a modular power supply but that is externally exposed but for the price and the compactness of the switch this fits in really well other than that it's the same clean design we've seen from unified before just I like the layout they don't have a bunch of clutter they don't have a bunch of oh yeah we solder discs and if you ever seen some of the random inexpensive things you can find occasionally on Amazon you'll find where they jumper or rig something that is not this this is a professional product so it is professionally made and everything is nice they even got the proper I don't know the glue is called but it's the keep it there glue I call it that you put like between components to make sure that they don't vibrate or shake all the other ones are surface mount so that's not really an issue but with like capacitors you don't want them just wobbling around here or being able to you know some guy with a screwdriver poking out of making a wiggle not really an issue here they got the goop on there alright so as fun as this is I just want to give you a peek inside like I said it's it's same design we've seen before from them which is great it definitely works well and let's get into the software because that's where the real fun begins with us so you first set up the edge switch it's going to get an IP address of one 92168 1.2 if there is no DHCP server I plugged it into a network that does have a DHCP server so this is the IP address that it was assigned based on the DHCP so if there's none you will get 192 168 1 dot 2 if there is a DHCP server it will hand out an address for this default login is ub NT u b NT and you may have noticed too this is the edgemax log and there's a little box that says new UI so we're gonna talk about that real quick i'm not going to go over every single detail in here now this switch has a ton of features and maybe in a later time if I have time I will go through and dig into it I'm gonna redirect you though to Lily how it was done a lot of Diggins to this switch it is like I said very powerful compared to the unified unify it is a the standard white box unified ones a review before they use the unified controller are nice they have most of the functions that you need in small business environment but that being said when you want a powerhouse you need something like this so you can get in and start doing a lot more fine-grain detail not to mention the command line as well so here we have our like porch summary dashboard VLAN setup link aggregation port mirroring I've already updated the firmware to be the latest firmware which is 1.74 so there's a lot you can do inside of this I'm not going to get into the VLANs like I said Willy's done some good videos that'll get you started on some of that it does have at least nice the little link ports what they're negotiated add up here at the top so you can kind of you know look at it see what's plugged in dig into what's plugged in on each port see the IP address you can click on a single port and edit it and you can see all the options you get for that single port so unicast storm recovery enable/disable percentages there's like I said a lot of little things you can do for each port and of course they expands even more from the command line and you can go when you go to download this they have an entire detailed document that shows you all the command line features that you can do for this so like I said it's a lot more extensive now I'm not covering today either because it goes on to the scope of this but it does have support for the UN MS so to ubiquity network management system now this is popular more in the enterprise wisp market where your remote doing this this is a similar but different product than the unified controller software that we use to manage from an MSP standpoint so I guess that these are a little bit different because it supports two UN MS versus the unify it is the same company but like I said two very different lines of software and tools that they have because they have slightly different use cases going back over to the menus are things like that there are so many little details that you can configure from this menu so each one of them like I said the whole list and I'm not going to break down every little detail in here but it does support like you here we got Mac base VLANs VLAN wizard status port configurations private VLAN setup separate voice VLAN like I said there's so many different little switching things that you can do in here setting up port security per interface static Mac dynamic pack protected ports a spanning tree these are some times where you worried someone's going to change something out on a port or swap a device you can lock things down in there and of course then we have the routing menus so we can see the summary art table here really not much in here right now we don't have much plugged in to this interface summary interface configuration and statistics based on IP I said it's a little bit more involved and a lot more flexible than the standard unified one but it's like I said the idea is for more advanced features and things like that security supports radius name server accountant configuration here and right here port access control statistics so you can dig in some of those details and we have a QoS menu so you can set up QoS summary configuration and all their little details for class to service and you're doing this on a per port basis so that's you know like I said some real details so you're gonna set up that are go beyond what your normal use case is like for maybe an average user especially for home users not that this can't be using your home matter of fact they aren't not a bad switch room because you one you don't have to run you special controller software because it has the web interface too if you ever want to start playing with and you're like me and want to dig into stuff they don't make a bad switch at all to have at the home because you have so many advanced things at your fingertips so if you want to play around and dig into things all the features are here now let's take a look at the new UI I think this is kind of slick because it has the more common that we're used to interface from the unify it's pretty it's white it's got the sliding menus but that being said you may notice that there's not a lot going on in here so let's look at the individual port we can see the link status we can disable the port isolate depart turn on Dee P snooping they will flow control but you can see how it's a lot more basic so it gives you the nice interface here I can tell you like the throughput and data going across the network I just have one device plugged up like my laptop in is to have something plugged in gives you some basic settings here turn on SSH server please leave telnet off and unless you have some really crazy use case for it as you know telnet passes credentials and clear so not ideal so there's not a lot here I left it at DCP for now until it gets deployed at the client it does have the ability to ping things on there so you can see the ping times from the switch to that so kind of novel I like the way they did this look at the Mac table again we can ping this we can see the TTL s and the stats from here so pretty cool I like the new UI but like I said it's a lot I've now covered the new UI and I it pretty quickly versus the old UI well obviously there's just so much more I do like you to one-click if I want to force it down to a different link status and things like that and you get these you know Church kind of see that the data going across and such so like I said this is not gonna be in-depth on this but I just want to do a comparison a quick review of the switch it's definitely a solid performer it's a great switch it has like I said a different use case then your standard unified edge you don't get the cold integration with the unified software but it does have its own interface so you can dig into it or SSH into it and really start messing around with all the fun features it can do and create your own static routing or do those custom configurations when you have that of you know different use case that's a little bit more advancing you may then you don't find with this Android unify

Daily message- You get to CHOOSE who you are today... will you receive or resist?
all right I've got just a quick message for you today okay just want to keep this short and sweet somebody just needs to hear this they just need you're under a lot of time pressure it feels like I've been feeling so much about that this morning there's this time pressure what's the reason for it there's there's you're you're going into Uncharted Territory Uncharted Territory and um there is a little bit of resistance to it there's resistance to it look at the difference between her energy here she's kind of you know like trying to find her way there's this black fold around her or blindfold around her eyes and it's kind of like trepidation is what I hear really like there's something out there and it's just like I'm just trying to feel my way and like feel safe this girl right here she doesn't have a blindfold on but she has her eyes closed and she's just like yes bring it on 111 on my recording Bring it on I love to feel what's coming this newness this excited like Open Spaces Wide Open Spaces she is tiptoeing she is reckless not Reckless I don't feel Reckless I I was going to say Reckless abandon I feel this reception they're it's like they want you to choose how you're going to receive how you're going to receive the energy of this thing coming in what you're moving towards there's something you're moving towards choose which timeline you're on which which one are you on are you scared of the unknown or are you excited about the newness the change the shift yesterday I had something happen um and I just felt I felt this relief I felt such relief I got some stuff off my chest I spoke words that I was scared to speak and and it was like this I don't know what the reaction is going to be I don't know how it's going to go over and and I just said it I just I'm just I'm just GNA lay it out there and there was this this this feeling of God just like oh I feel so much better why didn't I do that sooner and it was coming from a place of peace and God there was just this release just chose to face my fear um and and step onto the timeline of Freedom it was this energy of freedom I felt this relief and this Freedom yesterday that um I haven't felt in a very long time like something just just speaking my truth just being my truth um it's you got I'm Rippling that out to you you're you can feel both of these you can feel both of these um I do feel like it needs to be in the right environment you need to express you need to be um wide open in the right environment I think some of you have been trying to force that part of you in the wrong place it's like this pushing this pushing this pushing you're okay so the difference in these timelines is the difference between pushing and pulling Asser enforcing or receiving do you do you want to attract or do you want to assert today the attraction 444 on my recording what you're attracting it's seeking you all you have to do is open up okay open up it's like you're getting into this receptive mode right now this receptive mode get into the receptive mode I mean essentially that's something about the receptive mod from the past it's like you were preparing yourself for danger you had to um like steal yourself get ready for brace for impact that's what I'm looking for bracing for impact because I'm going into this totally blind unprepared um alone feeling alone I'm doing this by myself just like survival mode that's what that I know know that I don't think that the card means that but that's what I'm getting from this compared to and next to this card here it's like the difference between survival mode and thriving not doing it yourself receiving and attracting The Cooperative components the other components in your life that you can't see have been all around you opening opening yourself up to um help what it is that you really want it's like there's there's a lot of things that you've been asking for that you really want and there's a part of you this into the unknown that's terrified to receive them and so you block them or you push them off push them off push them off um let's get into receptive mode today okay that's what I got for you I love you

Faster and Smaller qcow2 Files With Subcluster based Allocation (KVM Forum 2020)
hello and thanks for listening my name is alberto garcia i work for regalia on the qmi project and in this presentation we're going to talk about the work that i have been doing lately and this is related to the qcode 2 file format as you know this is the native file format used by qmu and it supports many features has encryption compression backing files etc but the the question that i want to try to answer today is why is it that sometimes this uh slower than a raw file there's many reasons for that it can be because it hasn't been configured correctly we're not using the right options for our setup of course it can be that the driver can be improved and there's still room for improvement there um three years ago in the kvm forum 2017 i was talking about these things so you can check the talk it's in youtube it's available but today i want to focus on the problems that are a result of the very design of the qco2 file format so let's start with the format itself how how it works uh the basic idea of the the qco2 file is it is divided into clusters of the same size 64k by default but it can be changed when the file is created from 512 bytes to up to 2 megabytes there are different cluster size i'm not going to go into the details now but let's focus on the data cluster which contains the data that the guest can see so every time the guest needs to read data it goes to the queue code file is the the data if the cluster has been allocated there then it just reads the data from the cluster but if the cluster has been allocated then the it contains zeros or if there's a working file it goes to the backend file and checks the data is there so the cluster is the smallest unit of allocation so every time we allocate a new cluster if the write request is a model on the cluster size then we need to fill the rest with data and the data means we either go to the backing file and get it from there so in the case of in this image that you see we will write to the area in pink we will need to go to the packing file and read the the areas in dark blue and copy them to the active file or if there's no viking file we just fill it with zeros but we still need to fill it uh so the problem is that of course qmu needs to perform additional io to copy the rest of the data so the copy and writes and can be an expensive operation as you can imagine the when we increase the cluster size we have to do more copy on the right so the performance goes down you can see that in the table i had to mention though that if you don't have a packing file then as i said we should fill the uh the cluster with zeros but qmi nowadays uses f allocate to try to to fill it in a more efficient way so that works the file system supports it and the operating system supports it this is very fast and then the cluster size doesn't have any effect but if that doesn't work then it goes to the slow path of writing actual zeros to disk and then you can see the numbers that i'm showing in the table if there's a vacuum file however there's no no alternative we need to go to the backing file and get the data from there so that's that's where the the cluster has an effect the other consequence of this is of course the larger the cluster size we do more io we do more copy and write and then the image is bigger you write the same data but you get a bigger image and result because you are duplicating data from the backing file how much well this depends a lot on the use case uh here reports that can be 30 larger or 40 larger but it depends a lot on your use case i was just doing a couple of tests for this presentation and you can see that if we have an empty image and we write 100 megabyte worth of uh random 4k requests the the impact of having a a larger cluster size is very big we have a default 64k we get a 1.6 gigabyte image which is more than 10 times the what we were trying to write which is a lot but if we work with the maximum cluster size we get 29 gigabytes which is 300 times the the initial the amount of data that we want to write which is very big of course this is a extreme case normally in a real world scenario we don't we don't just write random write request but it gives an idea of what the problem is um then i did a second test i took an empty one terabyte image and i created them file system there and you can see the file system itself the metadata used by the file system which is just well is gigabyte but if you increase the cluster size and you take it to the maximum then you use one more gigabyte just for creating a file system empty file system with nothing else in it so so in summary if we increase the cluster size we get less performance because there's additional i o that needs to be done and we also get larger larger images and duplicate data so things clear then we don't just just reduce the cluster size no problem is that is not so easy because smaller clusters means more metadata or more cluster source so what does this mean apart from the guess that data itself qco2 images also need to store metadata about the the cluster so important things are the cluster mappings which map the guest addresses to the host addresses and the reference count all clusters in in github 2 have reference counts how we're going to see later so if we're going to have more clusters we're going to have more of them so it means more metadata so the the mapping from the guest clusters to the the guest offices to the host offices is done using this structure that we call l21 l1 and l2 tables this is a simple structure that maps virtual offsets into a host offset you can see our example here in this graphic the l1 table is just one per image for snapshot actually because the goto format can have several snapshots but we're not going to go into that now but the table itself is very small uh it's for a one terabyte image it's just 16k so it's nothing it's stored contiguously in the image file and um always keeps it in memory because it's very small so it's not there's no problem with that and basically the table just contains pointers to the l2 tables the two tables there can be many of them and initially there's none but they they are allocated in demand as the image grows delta tables are always one clustering size never more nevertheless and they also contain basically good pointers to the to the data clusters plus some additional information that we're going to see later thing is that of course if we reduce the cluster size then we need more entries so graphically we have two clusters and we make the clusters twice as small then we're going to have four clusters and we need four entries this time so half the cluster size twice the metadata that's the basic idea here we see the table what's the the maximum metadata for a one terabyte image as you see if you reduce the cluster by size by half you increase metadata by two which is a very big uh difference of course so choosing the right cluster size has a very big impact on the amount of metadata that you have in the image so what does this mean every time we need to do a i o request in the from the guest currently needs to go to the l2 table and get the the host office is transform the guest offset into the host offset so that's one additional operation per request and this is a has a very big import impacting performance so what qmu does in order to minimize it is it keeps the f2 tables in memory there's a cube code to cache we have to cache for that purpose i was talking about about it in more detail in the previous presentation that i mentioned earlier and it has a very big impact if we increase the cluster size we get much more performance so in the case of in this example that you see here the maximum cash need is five megabytes and we get 40 000 operations per second but we we reduce the cluster size the cache size sorry that the performance code goes down very quickly because it means that there's no we need to go to disk to get the l2 metadata more often so reducing the cluster size means we have much more metadata and we have much more ram than we need to keep that metadata memory then there's the reference counts every cluster in a keycode image has a reference count all types of cluster not just data cluster these are used for example for snapshots because you need to know who is using each one of the clusters and they are storing a two-level structure called reference table and reference block it's very similar to the the one and the two tables that we just described so of course a locating new cluster has additional overhead because you need to update the reference counts so with smaller clusters we need to allocate more of them so in general we have a lot of small clusters when it allocates first more clusters we need to locate more l2 tables we need to allocate more reference blocks and all that together means that the although normally reducing the cluster size increases the performance because there's less copy and ride involved once we go uh under a certain limit in this example is less than 16k the performance goes down very quickly as you can see the performance when we have 4k clusters uh is horrible even though with 4k clusters there is no copy on right but there's we have to allocate so many clusters so many l2 tables how many reference blocks that is the performance is very bad so the situation so far is that we cannot have two big clusters because they waste too much space and there's the additional i o needed for a copy and drive and we cannot have two small clusters because they increase the amount of metadata and if we decrease it too much then it's also very bad performance and this is a direct consequence of the the format itself is not something that you can fix in the driver so what can we do about it so the solution that i'm describing in this presentation is called sub-cluster allocation and the basic idea is that we have big clusters in order to reduce the amount of metadata but each one of them is divided into sub-clusters that can be allocated separately so we have faster allocations and less disk usage so graphically a normal l2 table looks like this we have two data clusters as you can see with sub-clusters each one of the data clusters is divided into 32 subclusters of the same size they are allocated separately so in this case only the rs and blue are actually allocated and using spacing disk internally the l2 table contains as i said earlier pointers to the data clusters basically it looks like this is the cluster offset plus a few more bits that indicate whether the cluster is allocated or not is compressed or not or it contains zeros contain zeros is a feature from qco2 that means that the cluster doesn't have any other data other than zero so there's no need to go to the data cluster and read from there we just we just know that it's zeros and we can return zeros without doing the i o so we will have some clusters we need to store additional information for that and there's no space here so we have we added this extended l2 entries which is basically very similar to the ones that we had before but they contain an additional bitmap indicating the status of each sub-cluster so with this each one of the individuals of clusters can be allocated unallocated or can be all zeros also compressed clusters don't have this however complex clusters they cannot be divided into subclusters and any way compressed clusters there doesn't really make so much sense to to use compression with extended l2 entries because there are different use cases so the use cases that i see for suppressor rotation are two one of them is having very large clusters because we want to minimize the amount of metadata and the amount of memory that we that we need but still want to have good io and have smaller images and the other use case is that we want to maximize the performance so we want to have the keep the location unit as close as possible to the to the block guest block size so we want to minimize the amount of copy and write and get the maximum performance so what does this mean as i said if we make the sub cluster size equal to the request size it means that the files have the file system block size then we get there's no copy and right at all and we get the maximum performance we can see here that compared to the previous to default uh setup without sub clusters in some cases we get 10 times more i operation per second and if we go to the cases where the sub-cluster is 4k or less which is the the size of the request in this example then we get the maximum performance which is 12 13 k i operation per second without the backing file the relative differences are the same of course it is faster because we don't need to go to the backing file to read the data and again i want to mention that if the file system supports uh empty in the cluster with f allocate then this is going to be much faster than this and then actually using some cluster doesn't really make a difference it's not going to be faster with that so you have to consider that about the the space of course if we have now the smaller allocation units then the images grow much less so we compared the random rights that i that i mentioned before we write 100 megabytes in 4k write requests the end result is much much smaller as you can see in the example so so of course this improves a lot the how we use the disk and although l to extend delta entries are twice as large as normally to entries we would in principle it would use more metadata however since each one of the l2 entries now points to 6 32 subclusters the end result is that we have 16 times less metadata for the same unit of allocation so we compare units of allocation clusters in traditional l2 entries and sub clusters extended to entries we see that for a 64k cluster size we would need 128 megabytes of cash for a one terabyte image but with the standalone two entries if we have 64k sub clusters we only need eight megabytes which is much less so we can have much larger clusters and keep good performance and without needing so much memory for the cache so things that need to be taken into account all this looks good but this is not magic so this feature is useful during allocation once the cluster is allocated there's no qco2 works just fine with or without sub-clusters and you get good performance so once the image is located this is not going to really help so much more again with compressed with compressed images it doesn't make sense i think it's a completely different use case so this is not going to give you any benefit you're going to have twice as much metadata and you're not going to see anything any benefit and if your image doesn't have any backing file maybe you don't see any speed up as i said qma tries first to use falloccate to allocate clusters efficiently so you have to try that first to see if it helps in your scenario but if you are using backing files then it will help in any case and then of course images created with this extended l2 entries are not going to be possible you are not going to be able to read them with other versions of qmu and i don't expect that this feature can be backported easily so you will need the latest versions of qmu so how do i try this this is not available in camera yet it's not in any release it will probably be available in game of 5.2 but the feature is complete and it's already in the repository and you can test it already so you just download the latest version from git you compile it and you create an image with the option extended l2 enabled and that's all you also probably want to have a larger cluster size the default cluster size is 64k but with this feature it makes sense to use larger clusters so be sure to try those but that's all that you need to do there's no nothing else again feedback back reports etc are very much appreciated this feature is complete but it's new so any testing anything that you try suggestions etc we will be happy to hear about them you can write to the mailing list or you can contact me directly and that's basically it i would also like to take the opportunity to thank outscale which is the company that is sponsoring all my work in qmu and in this feature in particular so everything that you are seeing here today is thanks to their sponsoring and this is all i hope that you enjoyed the presentation and i'm open to any questions thank you

MASSIVE Nintendo Switch News Just Dropped!
today we have a bevy of news for you guys three really big stories and then a ton of release dates and updates on games already known or even games not known that now have release dates I'm really excited about all of this stuff I don't want to waste too much of your time so we're gonna hop right in after I remind you that we are on our road to 150 000 subscribers so if you want to drop a like subscribe to the channel and Ringling that Ding-A-Ling on the Bell icon so hey we can uh we notify you of every video we upload that'd be greatly appreciated but without further Ado let's jump right into our very first story and this deals with Pokemon scarlet and violet now normally when this comes up we're talking DLC we're talking something crazy but today we're actually talking about concept art that was released by C deck today and what's really interesting about this concept art is it's just the one image that really stands out to me there's there's like a handful of them but I'm gonna ignore the other handful but I will put a link down in the description if you would like to check those out but we're going to focus on this one image because it shows like gorgeous scene that never really fully man manifest that well in the actual game it just showed their ambition may have exceeded there I don't know if it's their capabilities or their execution or maybe just the switch can't do this you know that's a common thought all the time that switch isn't that powerful or whatever but it does show that visually they have an idea and a concept of something that they haven't really fully realized in the series yet and it does show that there's likely a to be a lot of visual improvements especially on the Next Generation switch in terms of just the ambition of what they want to do with Pokemon visually especially the environments obviously we know the Pokemon are all simple designs but yeah it'll be quite interesting to see what they do and hopefully that this concept art maybe gives us an idea that there's somewhere else they'd like to go from a visual perspective and they just quite haven't gotten There Yet now that we're done with that we're gonna move into a new section uh that we're gonna call Quick hits because it's a bunch of news that we're gonna battle through super quickly but it's all very very notable so Turok 3 is coming to Nintendo switch and other platforms this November whole bunch of changes to it you guys are seeing clips of it right now looks utterly fantastic I played a ton of Turok 3 back in the day really glad to see this coming to Nintendo switch this November we don't have an exact day yet though steam World build not to be confused with steam world dig although it's the same IP it is coming to switch this December 1st and it does look utterly incredible you're building stuff you're building houses and Villages and it just looks really really good and I always love the steam World art Direction next up we have Star Wars dark Forces remaster was announced for Nintendo switch but we don't have a release date on this yet they did say that they will give us a release date in the future okay I mean duh kind of obvious for not giving it to us now it'll be in the future but I don't know it looks pretty solid they redid some of the visuals obviously still maintaining that older style I'll admit this is one of those Star Wars games from my childhood didn't actually play so if some of you play Dark Forces let me know how good this game is and if I should check it out next up we do have an update for Sonic Frontiers this was announced at Gamescom Opening Night Live the final Horizon free update was announced and it does drop next month and what's really interesting on this by the way September 28th we do have a date on this it features a brand new story and the ability to play as Sonic Tails Knuckles and Amy and what they are calling a climatic free update so whether this is the last update coming or the climax of the story I I don't know but anyways I love Sonic Frontiers so it's really nice to see a free update coming not to be outdone Sonic Superstars has some updates as well it's arriving October 17th which is three days before Mario wonder and Spider-Man 2. also the original design for Sonic will be playable and we're not just saying like oh you know Sana on Sonic on the Sega Genesis don't know we're talking about this rabbit looking weird thing I don't know it's playable in the game as a character pretty interesting maybe it's just a skin we'll have to wait and see next up we do have another date for something that's not a game but it's game related and tears of the kingdom is likely to be involved and that of course is the game awards it was announced for December 7th we're not going to dive too deep into the game awards now we'll wait until they have all their nominees and their categories and all of that but it's coming back and yeah cheers of the kingdom is probably upper game of the year so that's gonna be one to pay attention to next up we have the metal gear collection volume one on switch has gotten some tech detail updates confirmed and man people are not happy about this so it's 720p in handheld 1080p on you know docked that's fine but it's 30 FPS and only on switches at 30 FPS and what makes people really mad about this is this isn't a remaster this isn't anything fancy that they're doing it is a collection of old metal gear games and on Old systems like the PlayStation 2 the games were 60 FPS why they're not 60 FPS on which makes no sense to anyone but there's 60 FPS on all the other platforms really feels like they just didn't put any effort into the switch ports at this time I don't know it's why people are mad it doesn't make any sense these are not new games they're old games whatever next up last but not least switch does Remain the second best-selling console for the month of July in North America reportedly it's unit sales were pretty close to PlayStation 5 and well ahead of the Xbox series there's nothing notable for game sales really for the month of July Beyond Remnant 2 overall being the best-selling game in July and of course we're just talking about North American Sales here so switch is still selling pretty well but obviously it's in a decline it is down year over year for the month of July so that's going to do it for our quick hit section let's get into our next big story and this deals with the Nuvo uh you know Gamers favorite DRM to prevent piracy oh boy you already know that this is going to be a rough a rough one right it's this is going to be tough to talk about so we're here over on the official website for the Nouveau where it says project renewing power and it says the Nouveau by or dado or dato I don't know I can't pronounce their name now registered as an authorized Nintendo switch middleware game developers and Publishers can now access the video game protection software in the middleware section of the Nintendo developers portal so the new well the global leader in providing Security Solutions for video games on desktop console and mobile platforms is pleased to announce its protection Technologies are now available on the Nintendo developer Porter at portal as authorized by Nintendo switch middleware the Nintendo developer office documentation tools and other useful materials we're not going to go through this whole announcement we're just going to get to what this the intent of the Nuvo is on Nintendo switch if you can't even figure that out so it says that the Nova is the First Security partner added to the portal where developers are now able to access Nintendo switch emulator protection a revolutionary technology to protect games launching on Nintendo switch from piracy even if a game is protected against piracy on its PC version the version released on Nintendo switch can be emulated from day one and played on PC therefore bypassing the strong protections offered on the PC version this can happen with any of the numerous Games available on switch we just saw it happen with tears of the kingdom and Pikmin 4 by blocking unauthorized emulations on PC studios are able to increase their revenue during the game launch window which is the most important period for monetization well for most games Nintendo has evergreen status with their games anyways the Nintendo switch emulator protection will ensure that anyone wishing to play the game has to buy a legitimate copy as with all other de Nuvo Solutions the Technologies integrates seamlessly into the build tool chain with no impact on gaming performance I feel like they say this all the time then we later find out it actually does impact performance anyways then allows for the insertion of checks into the code which blocks gameplay on emulators as Gamers we know firsthand how piracy negatively affects the gaming industry most Gamers don't really complain that much about it but outside of leaks you know leaking story details and stuff and we're thrilled to be part of the Nintendo developer portal so that we can provide the latest technology to help fight this issue for Nintendo switch players and developers as the CEO so that's that's cool and it is true Nintendo's had a big issue with this stuff but I want to go to this other article on this website I've actually never been to says make use of and they go a little bit into what the Nouveau is and why do Gamers hate it because this is obviously something that if you don't know the history of the Nouveau as Nintendo switch players it's good to know why Gamers really don't like it and it's got nothing to do with preventing you from pirating games has to actually do with hurting legit consumers while people who pirate games continue to Pirate them pretty much without issue so this goes into you know popular things like competitive multiplayer so what is DRM and anti-cheat software when it comes to video games cheats have always been around from spawning tons of weapons in Grand Theft Auto to seeing through walls wall hacking FPS games like Counter-Strike in Call of Duty video game cheats allow players to gain an unfair Advantage by exploiting The Game's core mechanics and anti-cheat tool is a piece of software integrated into the game to control cheating by detecting cheaters now this is not really what we're worried about right now we're actually worried about piracy but we'll get to that in a moment anti-cheat software either works from the user mode or the kernel mode DRM or digital Rights Management soft where on the other hand deals primarily we're protecting the game's code and dlls from being hooked hijacked or tampered with in any way ensuring Integrity in the game code and preventing piracy so what does de Nuvo do the Nuvo is primarily a DRM software additionally it's an anti-cheat solution stops people from cracking and pirating games and also identifies and bans cheaters in multiplayer games the Duma is most famous for or in the video game Circle Infamous for its key feature anti-tamper protection when implemented as DRM and employs techniques like opsification and anti-debugging implementations virtualization and encryption on the video games core files to Fortress the video game from being reverse engineered and cracked by video game piracy groups it also implements online activation and Hardware signing to prevent unauthorized access to the game and this has become a very controversial point in the renewable process that has hurt legit consumers the Nouveau is an anti-cheat in an equally tough net to crack we're not going to worry about the anti-cheat stuff we're going to go down here and we'll go to why do some people hate the Nuvo the Nuvo anti-cheat uses kernel level Rivals to function so if someone manages to exploit it to gain access to the kernel they can access almost everything stored on your computer so there's that it's not very good at having security for your whole thing but but there's other things almost all games that are protected by the new anti-tamper stuffer from increased loading times lower frame rates and other performance issues so even though it claims it has no hit to Performance games using de novo have longer load times lower frame rates and often resolution issues yes folks the Nuvo has shown an impact on performance despite their claims it gets worse de Nuvo can lead developers with a hefty bill so it's not always good for developers as well because it is a service that you must pay to use and yeah it notice the video game anti-cheats and DRM are obviously here to stay one thing it's not noted in here and I can say this based on my personal experience dealing with uh denuvo is that sometimes you can't even access your video game if you don't have an online connection now I don't know they're going to use this technique on Nintendo switch since it's a portable system that isn't always meant to have an internet connection but it is notable on PC yeah sometimes you just can't play your game well hack people are playing a hacked version of the game that removed the novo are not only seeing better performance they're also able to play it offline so it's not necessarily been a good thing in the industry seen by most Gamers but it is something that we do have to deal with and now it's coming to the Nintendo switch here's hoping they somehow made it better I don't know that they can but let's open uh we need to get to our next story here and we're going to end with a happier story or at least some sort of a positive note here talking about a Next Generation Nintendo switch game from Nintendo this time a first party next Generation game that's right we actually have news um something what is it the next is you know they would likely be something vastly different says the series director and we're getting this news over on Nintendo everything so according to Xenoblade Chronicles director tetsuya Takahashi assuming that we see another entry in the series which it's been growing so I assume we will in fact they released two of them plus the definitive edition on switch that's three games just didn't get X I don't know what's up with that anyways a message from him was included in a recently released xenobi Chronicles 3 soundtrack so this is official stuff here's what the translation reads rather than playing on defense going on the offense change rather than maintain this is a stance I have continued to hold for 30 years if there is another Xenoblade which there clearly will be because it sells well it will likely be something vastly different from what came before in style and in music I would like to make my next goal something that will betray everyone's expectations in a good way of course this leads it to you guys to figure out what sort of experimentation is actually going to be happening with Xenoblade Chronicles 3. look I'm not gonna sit here and pretend that I'm the biggest you know blade you know Aficionado and know everything about it despite dabbling in all the games but man it is exciting to think that you know what even with Xenoblade they think there's ways they can innovate and you know just surprise our expectations in the future and obviously the next unibody game since the last one just came out this year believe it or not well at least the DLC right uh yeah we're obviously gonna see this next one on the next generation of hardware and I can't wait to see what monolithoff can do with that kind of power anyways folks thank you so much for tuning in it's been a long road at the end of this video be sure you turn into our podcast tonight or if you're watching this tomorrow go back and watch our podcast that happened at 8pm central time uh on the 26th or whatever day it is the 23rd sorry 23rd and you know what uh we got switch force on there we got Andres restarting we got Eric back on the show it's gonna be good times so uh hopefully you guys go check that out as we talk about Charles martinay's retirement and more we have actually quite a bit to talk about catch you guys in the next video thank you [Music]

ThruNite TN12 Pro - Both a Tactical and EDC Light
i have another flashlight review i want to share with you this time it is the thrunite tn 12 pro if you're interested in hearing more about this light keep watching all right just before we get started i want to thank thrunite for sending this light to me so that i could share it with you so what we'll do is always we'll go down to the tabletop i'll go over its performance as well as physical specifications i'll go over its modes of operation then of course we'll get outside and do some testing before we take a closer look at the thrunite tn12 pro let's take a look at what it came with so this is the box that it arrived in very much like the other boxes from thrunite inside is the usual warranty information and instruction manual well laid out and easy to read and understand it does come with a usb type-c charging cable it also comes with a small bag holding a lanyard a pair of spare o-rings and a spare battery port cover as well and finally something i haven't seen for a while in a flashlight is a belt holster now the quality of construction and materials are just fine for this holster having said that i think if i was using this on a duty belt i would want to switch up to something a little bit more sturdy a little bit more heavy duty however if i was just wearing this on my side as edc i think this would operate just fine so let me put that aside bring this back into the picture so let's go over a few of the key features for the light as i mentioned it is usb type-c rechargeable battery port cover here works well it has a side switch that allows you to not only turn the light on and off but to access all the modes and i very much like that about this light and it has a tail switch which allows you to access turbo with a partial and full press so you get that momentary use of turbo from this tail switch only all right let's go over the physical specifications for the flight so the overall length of this light is 5.18 inches which is 130 1.5 millimeters the diameter at the basal is 1.06 inches which is 27 millimeters diameter at the base of the battery tube is 1 inch even which is 25.5 millimeters the weight with the battery is 5 ounces or 143 grams all right as far as performance specifications go we'll start at the top so turbo comes in at 1900 lumens which will last for seven minutes before it switches down to 477 lumens which will last for an additional 130 minutes it has a high setting of 550 lumens which will last for two and one half hours a medium setting of 220 lumens lasting 9 hours a low of 50 lumens lasting 46 hours and a firefly of 0.5 lumens lasting 37 days it also has a strobe coming in at 550 lumens which will last for four and a half hours it has a beam distance on turbo of 380 min meters it has an intensity of 36 000 candela it is has uh it is ipx8 rated with an impact resistance of 1.5 meters before we go through the modes of operation for the tn12 pro i just want to point out i think i may have failed to do so a minute ago it does come with an additional accessory which is this two-way pocket clip which of course is removable now to turn the flashlight on and off everything can be done from the side switch so it's a simple press you'll come on at whatever last lumen setting was if you press and hold it'll cycle up through low medium high back to low medium high i'll turn it off at low so now turn it off turn it on and again as i mentioned it comes back with that memory feature now you can access turbo from this button as well either with the light turned on or off with a double click and you're into turbo turn it off and you have the memory again for the last lumen setting as i mentioned also it does have a tail switch which allows you to access turbo directly either momentary by partially depressing the switch or leave it on turbo by fully depressing the switch so that's a nice feature to have basically what this does it makes it both an edc flashlight as well as a tactical flashlight now like all fl uh through knight flashlights to access the eco mode you press and hold the light uh or the switch on and you'll go down to the lowest setting of five or point five lumens to access strobe while the light is turned on you can triple click the side button and you'll go directly to strobe now i want to take a minute to go through the lock out mode the electronic lock up mode for this flashlight because it's a little different than some of the other flashlights in that it has a level one and a level two or a primary and secondary whatever you want so a kind of a pulse and suspenders approach to the safety of having a lockout so basically you start with this side switch again with the flashlight turned off if i press and hold it i go into turb or firefly and while it's in firefly if i press and hold it it will lock out and once it's locked out you can't opt you get no uh operation of the flashlight now if i want to double lock it all i need to do is press the tail switch and now it's double lock so again i can't even unlock it from the side switch before i can unlock it from the side switch i have to unlock it now press and hold and it will come on in eco and then you can or firefly and you can work your way up through the settings from there all right haven't gone through the physical performance specifications for the thrunite tn12 pro and haven't gone through its modes of operation there's only one thing left to do with this light and that is to get outside and do some testing doing some nighttime testing of the thrunite tn12 pro a rather good size edc flashlight with tactical capabilities quite nice to carry in the pocket and very effective out here in the woods let me turn on the firefly mode uh that's that's not going to pick up on the camera let's try it on the tree you may be able to see it on the tree beside me really this is for use inside of the tent so you don't lose your night vision too badly turn that off turn it on now that is low i could navigate with that if i really wanted to save battery but medium that i could navigate with quite well and at medium you're going to have a longer battery life so yeah that i think medium is a good setting for general use take it up to high there's high and plenty of light there and one more turbo and that just illuminates the wood the light has great penetration that's 50 meters down the path but hopefully it's showing up that there's significant amount of flood on either side so great combination of flood as well as a forward light on this before closing this video out i thought we'd go over the pros and cons for the thrunite tn12 pro so there's not a lot more to say about this light other than the fact that one thing i have yet to point out is the fact that the tail cap switch or the tail switch on the end is slightly depressed below the level of the back end of the flashlight and what that does it allows you to table stand it and use the light for that and in that way however is that is also a bit of a con in that now that that switch is a little bit recessed i find at least for me it may not be for others i find it a little harder to access the button it just seems to be maybe the size of my thumb a little bit arthritic with old age i'm not quite sure to be honest i gave this to my wife to try and she had no problems whatsoever using that tail switch so it's probably just my personal opinion on this that it is a little bit harder to use the switch with it depressed like this so uh yeah the other thing i think i especially like about this is the fact that it came with a holster that is actually a bit unusual i have some other lights that have arrived that definitely needed a holster that didn't have one that this comes with a holster you may never use it that way but it is nice for it to come with that feature okay i think i've pretty much covered all the pros and cons for this flashlight and all the other information i will be putting all the information for this flashlight in the video description below i would invite you to leave me any comments that you want to make or any questions put those in the comments section below but as always get out and explore and take that path less travel because it will make all the difference bye for now

KVD GOOD APPLE CONCEALER.....IS THIS VIRAL WORTHY?
i told you i was going to do this review i'm so excited for it today i'm going to review the brand new like kvd beauty good apple lightweight full coverage concealer so if you want to see my thoughts and just keep watching [Music] so last year this foundation from kvd was super duper viral a good apple skin perfecting a foundation balm i personally was a fan of it i really really enjoyed it the trick with this was less is more if you used less product it didn't overload your face i thought it was a beautiful beautiful product this foundation in of itself revived the brand kvd beauty for sure so i was really excited to see what they could do with a concealer version of this so this is launched everywhere that you can find kpd beauty right now and let's take a look at it it's going to be 28 which is a decent price for kvd beauty i'm looking at the color range here spectacular tons of shades and the range looks fabulous i personally picked up the shade medium one two six i won't be pairing the concealer today with a good apple foundation because this shade is too light for me i'm pretty sure the concealer is darker than the foundation i picked up light zero one five and i was so off when i picked this up i'm wearing the nars light reflecting foundation since i've been using this a lot so i really know how it works but yeah that's why i'm not pairing it with this because this is just an odd color if i paired it with this concealer this is .33 ounces or 10 milliliters of product the coverage is supposed to be full with a natural finish it's supposed to be extremely long wearing crease resistant and it's supposed to have the same hydrating lightweight full coverage as the good apple foundation and that's what i liked about this i feel like it was really hydrating on my skin but it still gave a really good amount of coverage and felt lightweight so hopefully that's what this concealer does as well here is the box that it's going to come in let's say six month shelf life here and the product itself is made in the usa and kvd is vegan i'm going to try and get close up if you need to take a look at the ingredients or anything here it is for you to pause for your convenience here is what the component itself is going to look like it is plastic i almost feel like i want to pull it out like a dropper but that's not how it works and here is what the applicator looks like i know a lot of you said you were very interested in the applicator it's supposed to mimic i believe like a finger tip basically i mean to me a doe foot is a doe foot it does allow you to get in the crevices i suppose but so does a normal toe foot anyways a lot of you guys were excited about this applicator so let's do one size first so as you can see i have a little bit of purple and cool tones running underneath my eyes especially in this area right here we're gonna focus some product here and then a little bit out here i know this is the trendy way to do concealer so we'll do it that way and i also want to get it down my nose like so we're going to highlight some areas of my face and then i also want to see what it does if i put it over my pores i'm going to use a shot miss a sponge i would say this made my pores look a little nicer right it definitely looks hydrating in this area okay let's let's see how it spreads underneath the eye it's not the most malleable concealer to spread there's some concealers that i own that i feel like would just whoosh just like that not saying this is hard to spread it's not but it does lean a little bit thicker than some other concealers that i have don't ever ever forget to apply concealer in this area because that's where a lot of people harbor so much of their darkness wow that looks really fresh right and it definitely looks pretty hydrating we will see how it sets but let's blend it out in the other areas this concealer has been sitting on my face but i don't notice it being difficult to blend out because of that reason so it doesn't seem to like dry down super fast or anything so what do we think i think that that looks pretty nice let's do another coat i'm going to apply it the way that i normally apply it which is about this much just to see so this is a little bit more product and we'll see if that affects the wear time this is a great color for me by the way so if you're around my skin tone medium one two six looks really good then let's put just a wee bit right in this area where my pores tend to be the most visible i love when a concealer not that it's their job but i love when a concealer can smooth out this area of my face because i feel like it's a bonus because you know how sometimes foundations make that area look not good if the concealer can save the day great i think that looks super good what do you guys think i think it looks hydrating i wouldn't call it a full coverage but it's definitely in between medium and full for sure i want to keep the layers thin because that's how you should bat with concealers but all in all it looks really good i wish it was just a little bit more easy to spread a little bit more malleable but other than that it looks really good has that natural finish that it talks about but doesn't quite reach full coverage we're going to set now with a powder that i'm very comfortable with this is the maybelline fit me in fair light it's amazing i'm going to use a weingos number two brush and i'm not gonna set with too much powder this for every day is how i normally set my face so i'm just gonna lightly set the t-zone and underneath my eyes turn the lights down so you can really see what do we think i think it looks really nice the only thing that i'm noticing is it does look a little bit creepy immediately underneath my eyes a bit on the dry side but it's really not that bad i mean those wrinkles are there that's what it is you know but so far i'm liking how it looks i am going to finish the rest of my makeup and then we'll see how it looks after sitting for about 45 minutes or so alright guys makeup is done here is how the concealer is looking so i have to say i did notice as the concealer settled in i did get a little bit dry and like right around my lash line area which i mean it happens those are where the most fine lines the fine lines are really but i wouldn't call this a hydrating concealer because i have some that don't do that however it's not at a bad point right now we look okay i'm pretty content with this um and i can definitely see all of the areas that i put the concealer because it does have i feel like more of a smooth finish so so far everything is looking good i want to definitely do a wear test of this but i do like it so far i don't love it but i like it as far as the coverage i think it's holding up pretty well in certain lights if i turn my head i can see a little bit of my darkness peeking through but nothing too crazy i'm not too picky about that but so far it looks pretty good and it's holding its own coverage-wise i would say so i'm gonna keep you guys updated in a few hours and we'll see how she's looking okay guys so i figured i'd finish this video off with a quick wear time update it's about nine o'clock so i've been wearing this concealer for like nine almost 10 hours really long wear test today let's get nice and personal it's really not that bad it looks pretty good all things considered i must have ish my nose right here but it looks a wee bit crusty around here but this is where i always get crusty this is where the nose thing happens um okay so my under eyes did look like slightly dry today slightly slightly nothing bad but this isn't the best concealer that i have it's not the most hydrating it definitely leaves me looking a little creepy if you see right underneath my eyelashes however it's certainly not the worst concealer that i have it i would say it's on the upper end of how concealers perform in my collection nothing amazing my socks are not knocked off i don't think you need to run to the store or fight off people to pick up this concealer but i do like it do i think that it has similar characteristics of the good apple i think it's a bit more dry personally but it's pretty pretty good i don't think it's gonna be worth going viral for other than the name really but it's a solid performing concealer i'm not mad at it so i think if you have a lot of fine lines and that's something that really bothers you you could probably skip on this concealer but i can see a lot of people definitely loving it so i'm gonna end the video with here i'm ready to take my makeup off for the day so i hope you guys enjoyed it and you found it helpful if you picked up this concealer let me know your skin type all of that and how this wore on you so that we can chat about it in the comments and help each other out and thank you guys so much for being subscribed to my channel and liking this video and i will see you in the next one bye guys have a good one [Music]

Ellie Next Door: I am an Asexual Sex Worker
holly randle unfiltered is brought to you by our friends at manscaped their lawnmower 3.0 is a revolutionary electric trimmer that won't nick or snag your nuts so go to manscape.com use code hru for 20 off plus free shipping [Music] hello everybody welcome back to the show holly randle unfiltered today i have ellie next door she is an asexual sex worker and if you're scratching your head a little bit going like wait how is that and what does that even mean ellie is here to tell us so ellie first of all how are you doing today i am so good how are you doing today i am great i am great so yeah let's get right into it like i guess let's start off by can you kind of tell us exactly what being asexual means yeah so obviously everybody experiences their sexual their sexuality differently but for me uh i find that while i definitely have attraction to certain people like i can you know look at somebody and see that they're really attracted to that they're really hot i just for me that attraction just doesn't extend into thinking about having sex with them or thinking about them naked or thinking about them in a sexual way so i it's uh it's one of the things that's a little bit difficult to explain of course but how i try to explain it is when i look at you know michelangelo's david that big statue i can look at the human form and i can see like this is beautiful and it's muscular and it is amazing but at the same time i don't think about having sex with david i don't think about him coming down from his pedestal and having sex with me so for me when i experience attraction to people it's more of a romantic attraction a desire to you know be you know physically intimate in a non-sexual way like you know hugging kissing touching having a romantic relationship with them where i have you know a real connection with them a friendship there's different ways that people can experience attraction and sexuality and sexual attraction is just a portion of that it's just not something i personally have a lot of experience with so when did you i guess realize that you were asexual and how did you come to that realization well when i was a little bit younger i was very active on like you know lgbt social justice warrior kind of kind of spaces online and so i was really exposed really early to a lot of really specific language about how to describe your sexuality and the way that you feel and these really specific uh you know genders and sexualities that some people might think are not valid or might not agree with but i think they're really good for describing how people feel inside with within themselves and so through that i found the asexual community and it really was listening to other reading other people's experiences reading people's accounts of like when they realized they were asexual when they realized something was different about them as their other friends are and that's when it clicked for me was i realized that i was like i feel like there's something a little bit different that i'm not quite getting it wasn't up until a couple months ago that i really you know i was in quarantine and i was home a lot and i was just scrolling on my phone and i kind of got back into those asexual spaces you know on reddit and on twitter and i just had the same experience of reading people's stories and just thinking to myself that these made so much sense and that this was much more relatable than anything that i've ever seen in media or her described to me or just the way that other people seem to be does that make sense yeah it does i'm just so then you know when when we're growing up and we're teenagers we have like hormones coursing through our body and we start to discover our own sexuality so was that part of your story like did you still like do you still masturbate like do you get turned on but just not by other people or like that is not a component at all yeah so i mean asexual doesn't mean that i don't so libido and sexual attraction are different things libido is how much your body and your monkey brain just want you to have sex whereas sexual attraction is you know about that specific person that you're attracted to uh so some asexual people have libidos it's obviously it's always different for everybody but for me i definitely sometimes can get horny i'm a medication that kind of suppresses that right now so as a side effect so i it's not really relevant for me right now i don't really masturbate outside of um you know for work which is always really fun it does feel good the pipes all work systems all there i just don't feel a really strong desire to when i look at somebody like when i look at somebody at the mall or when i you know i'm out in public or i see a picture of somebody on instagram i literally just never have the thought that i would want to have sex with them i might think oh i want to make out with that person or i want to kiss that person or want to i don't know go to a museum with that person but it just just never is part of it so can i can i ask you then [Music] when did you lose your virginity and and how was that for you well i was i was 18. i had just about to go to college and i don't know i feel like i've always had a pretty i'm pretty utilitarian i look at things really not black and white but i look at things pretty um critically and so i remember having the thought that who i lost my virginity to was kind of important because i would kind of think about it a little bit but after that it wasn't super important because you know you grow up and you just assume that how you feel is how everybody else feels they just assumed that what i was feeling was how people experienced their their regular sexual attraction to other people so you don't know anything's wrong or different and i wasn't opposed to having sex with people the idea isn't gross or isn't off-putting because i don't really it doesn't gross me out i just am not crazy crazy interested in it [Music] so was it kind of like a a notch that you needed on your belt like a thing that you did check off i mean honestly for me that's what losing my virginity was for me i was like well i better lose my virginity because all my friends have done it and that's what i'm like supposed to do yeah um so was it kind of like that for you there there's absolutely a level of that um i think so for me what i've realized as i've gotten older uh like sex is for me just another dimension of how i can express my love and affection for somebody you know you can express you know there's all sorts of different love languages and there's different ways that you can you know express to somebody how much they mean to you and one of those ways is suck in their dick some people love it's that's a great love language is blow jobs like you know if you're really good friends with somebody and you're not particularly opposed to giving them a [ __ ] they might love it you know like it's just another way that you can connect with people and that you can you know experience your body and experience life it's so i'm a little bit different than other asexual people other sexual people don't you know you don't seek out sex because you're not thinking about people but for me if the opportunities provided i don't generally always turn it down because i i'm happy to make other people happy and i'm happy to please people and make them feel really good it makes me feel good to make them feel good i love it i love being good at giving a [ __ ] okay so it's kind of like it's it's like a service that you do to express your affection for someone it's like giving someone a massage right like generally giving someone a massage doesn't turn you on it doesn't like feel amazing to have like your fingers on someone's shoulders but they feel really good and so their response is the reward for that yeah exactly and of course you can have really nice sensual massages where you you know have nice lotion and you turn the lights down and i mean really how how far off is that from putting your dick in someone's vagina or you know putting whatever genitals are going wherever they are uh you know how much of a leap is it like i didn't grow up viewing my body as inherently sexual or shameful or that naked people were something to be like you know giggled and shied away from you know i went to art museums and it was never about look at the naked lady in the painting you know it was everyone's got a butt everyone's got nipples everyone everyone is a person it's not about oh my my breasts are scandalous and scary and will be sinful so i have to be really careful of who's seeing them everybody's got some people got boobs like all right awesome it's not it's just another part of your body just like sex is another way that you can experience touch and affection and love for somebody that's so interesting so you you grew up without it sounds like without like a sense of shame around sexuality or around your body so i wonder how many other people are maybe just asexual by nature but it's buried under like having been taught as a child that sex is shameful that sex is dirty that sex is wrong and so for them you know their lack of desire to have sex seems to be centered around some kind of like religious teachings or you know the idea that it's a bad thing but for you it seems like you know you you're open you were raised open to the idea but then you've just come to find that just you yourself are not particularly interested in such a thing but it wasn't something that was like denied or shamed to you when you were younger does that sound right yeah i mean we're we're certainly not walking around naked with each other we're not we're not big uh big talkers with each other all the time so we didn't necessarily like talk about sex but when it comes to just like the human body and like you know and just accepting that people look different and people you know have different types of bodies and that your body is natural and normal and you shouldn't feel ashamed about it i think just for me translated and developed into a part of my sexuality and part of my the way that i interact with sex i don't come at it from an angle of like if i this guy sees my boobs it's like an nft like this guy is the one dude who's ever gonna see him you know like like my body doesn't have less value based on how many people have seen it if that were true celebrities bodies would be worthless like that doesn't make any sense if 10 000 people have seen a picture of my nipples my nipples aren't somehow less beautiful and physically there and awesome for everybody else that's looking at them so like who cares maybe in a way they're even more so because you know they're out there in the public to be revered and enjoyed and appreciated you know i mean you could say the same thing about works of art like how is a work of art a work of art if no one sees it you know exactly like yeah like we would have paintings and like uh art prints of like you know topless women just because in the period that the piece of art came out that was just the style it's not about her sexual breasts and oh my god we can't let our children see this it's just okay that's what people look like you know it's not something that you have to and like that sucks that people do feel that way and to go back to your point i've kind of brushed over i'm sorry about people that are probably asexual don't even realize it um i've read some sort of statistic seems to be about one percent of people are probably asexual on some level but what i find really really interesting is that demisexuality which is uh part of the spectrum of asexuality uh is i think more common than people think it is demisexuality to be for everybody uh is when you only form sexual attraction to somebody that you already have a pre-existing relationship with so that means like you don't ever have sexual desires or like sexual attraction to strangers but if you have a really close friendship or you know like co-worker relationship with somebody that develops over time then those feelings of sexual attraction build and i think and i see like comments online of people saying that that's how they feel and people being like that's not being asexual i feel like that it's yes it is it's just so interesting the spectrum of human sexuality and that's one of the really fascinating things about doing this podcast is i get to talk to so many people different people who have different ways of defining their sexuality um so now being asexual did that make dating hard for you is it hard for you now like how is your relationship maybe different yeah i mean so i've never had a problem dating uh i feel like i have a decent enough personality to get through a couple of dates and i don't look too terrible so frankly dating has always been really easy um a lot of you know i a lot of the times you know i would experience a certain just other forms of attraction to somebody and just you know be in relationship with them because you know if you don't know that how you're feeling is different from everybody else or you don't think about it i just kind of was just going with the idea that well i was dating them and i liked you know making out with them and i liked being around them so like we said like sex is just part of it but i i'm you know i realized later on like oh no people are experiencing this just in a different way than i am so i think so so sorry i just want i'm going to get kind of specific here because i just want to make sure that like i understand so when you're making out with somebody when you're engaging in foreplay like do you get wet or do you not because you're not turned on or are you turned on see that's tricky i i genuinely think i have a little bit of like a medical problem going on because i have a lot of like vaginal pain when i do penetration so i don't do any penetration of my work um i just have a lot of pain so that that doesn't help if i could wear bad dragon dildos up there all day then i would right i just can't but so there's a little bit where i think that i probably have a little bit of a physical issue but on the other hand it kind of depends you know most you know i'm pretty young i'm 21 so i've dated you know college age boys and they're not exactly uh you know sons of seduction they're not we're not exactly talking about like people with prowess so they're not like a real casanova no like i i you know i really enjoyed you know relationships with them or the one-night stands that i had or whatever else like i'm sure they were very nice but they weren't exactly all uh you know hugh hefner's so uh there's probably a level of that the person that i'm with now is amazing i love him so much he's the best person i've ever been with and um like i said you know sex is just another way that i express my love and affection for him um and so yeah like sometimes i get wet it's kind of like a monkey brain thing just like getting wet like i don't want to speak for you but i'm sure sometimes on some sets and some occasions you're doing a shoot and maybe you get a little wet it's you know like you're doing work but something in your monkey brain is like all right okay i don't hate this like there's you know you're you can't experience okay i i i see what you mean like maybe i get like a little twitch where i'm like oh my vagina finds that kind of interesting but i have no desire to jump into the scene and i don't want to have sex with those performers afterwards i don't want to like you know go home with any of them like i haven't developed a sexual attraction for that person the scenario was just something that was kind of hot and that has happened to me literally like three times in the 22 years that i've been doing this people always ask me if i get turned on with my work and it's like we kind of talked about this a little bit before we started the podcast but like yeah pretty much no because i'm working yeah of course no yeah that's actually i think a great way to explain you something that's only happened to you a couple times but for me that's kind of most of the time it's not about the specific person that i'm with necessarily usually it's about like the situation so like if i watch porn i don't have like specific porn stars that i watch i don't have like a specific preference for a physical body type it's really more about the concept and the scene and you know like the the fantasy it's i don't really care what the people doing it look like for the most part it's not about how big the guy in the porn stick is or how or what he looks like it's just about this particular scene or this particular you know whatever it is that uh that goes on does that i think i think uh i hope any performers listening maybe kind of understand this a little bit where you're not opposed having sex with a person you're gonna do a shoot with but you're also not like raring to go you're not like oh like if we i would do this for free [Laughter] i guess therein lies the the real question right or the real answer i should say if you do this for free that is [Laughter] so actually that's a great segue so we're going to take a quick commercial break but when we come back we're going to talk about what it's like to be a sex worker who is asexual how does that work what is the kind of sex work that ellie does so uh stick around guys we'll be right back got

20 off at manscape.com by using my code h r u that's 20 off at manscape.com by using my code hru hey guys welcome back so ellie uh we've you know talked about what being asexual is you've kind of explained that for all of us so how does somebody who's asexual end up in sex work well i mean i imagine it's probably similar to every other uh you know queer person who does end up in sex work or any person ends who ends up in sex work you know like we kind of talked about before it's not necessarily about who you're attracted to you know if you're you know doing full service sex work you're not always basing your clients off of necessarily who you're physically attracted to so for me who i'm physically attracted to is basically just as irrelevant as it is for almost every other sex worker you know that we hear all sorts of stories about sex workers who are lesbians or you know we're bisexual or are in relationships or whatever else it is and it's it's yeah like it's sex work is work so it's for me it's not about who i personally want to have sex with yeah that makes a lot of sense and then you do a lot of like camming and and i think you mentioned phone sex as well so you're actually not having sex with somebody else in those environments right that's more of you interacting with your audience correct yep yeah so i uh i i say this and i you know like the hierarchy where you know some people think that some types of sex work are better than others i'm not above any kind of sex work but for me um i've never crossed the bridge of i've never done any kind of penetration in my mouth in my [ __ ] or in my vagina i'm so sorry in my mouth in my [ __ ] or in my ass um it's just not a bridge i've crossed yet so i've again like it's very irrelevant who i want to have sex with because i don't have sex with people in my work maybe that's what i would cross later who knows but for right now that's just not what i've done yet that makes a lot of sense so so what does your work generally consist of yeah well for about a year and a half i was camming full time five days a week on chatterbait uh and i was very strict about my schedule i was really good but uh you know december with you know the the the whole world going to uh to a disaster [ __ ] it was uh you know things kind of fell off for a little bit so i've been on a little bit of a hiatus i'm sure i'll go back to camping at some point because i really really did love it but i do a lot of phone sex on night flirt i have my only fans of course and i also help other uh sex workers or early anybody else who wants me to uh help other sex work workers uh promote themselves on reddit which is really really really difficult to do because reddit is this like very specific hell site where it hates sex workers and hates women and i hate promotion so you have to navigate it very slyly so i do a lot of that that is so funny that is so true i remember when my brother who's um actually was a computer science major and it's like a total tech nerd first told me about reddit and he was like you know it's amazing it's like that what they call themselves the front page of the internet um it's a great place to promote yourself yet they hate people who promote themselves so you have to go on there and promote yourself in a way that doesn't appear like you're actually promoting yourself it's very tricky yes it's very tricky because it's true people hate it like if you like if you post uh like a post with i made this and my business is this in the title you're not going to get up votes but if you say i made this and then if you have your friend go and comment oh my god i love this then you can comment you can say this is my store but someone has to ask you can't go in it's it's like so archaic and very complicated there's a whole science to it i have like an algorithm that i use it's very complex but it gets uh it gets really intense and but they hate women they hate sex workers and uh there's just so many of us on reddit at this point that you really have to be very strategic or else you just fall into this other this sea of other girls and only fans that the general population of reddit kind of resents yeah i can see that i mean with the explosion of only fans and everybody getting on that platform and everybody promoting it i mean even my twitter feed is like oh my [ __ ] god like another only fans promo you know what i mean it's like it's all it is is only fans promotions and i feel bad because it's a lot of these girls they're posting and they're so like there's like a whole kind of like i know at the same time i don't even blame a lot of redditors for being like frustrated with with only fans girls because a lot of them will post like the same picture in 20 different subreddits in a single day and yeah it's [ __ ] annoying like i don't like it when i see it it makes me turned off or people will be promoting in like only fan subreddits this is advice if you ever want everyone only on reddit um masterclass over here never post in those like only fans specific ones with the title because it's an echo chamber of you and 10 000 other girls and like five people that are going to actually spend money no one goes on reddit with the intention of buying porn you have to you have to make yourself like a recurring character on a subreddit and then if you get a following and then that following builds you it's i can go into it i won't so basically you have to like go in there and just kind of be a part of the community and get people to like you and then if they like you then they might support you financially but you can't just go in there and just drop promotional um photos and links because they're like oh yeah yeah i see that exactly you have to make like like i say you know it's you can see 10 million pairs of boobs on the internet for free but if you want to see my boobs they're going to be behind the paywall and the difference is that you want to see my boobs otherwise there's no reason for you to to purchase something from me you know i get i understand that not everybody wants to pay for porn all the time i i'm not gonna get in a soapbox and like admonish everybody like whatever it's not on my business but at the same time you know obviously i don't want my content stolen and it's shitty when you know paywall content is stolen but if you want someone to purchase for something from you you have to make them want something special in it then you have to you have to be the special thing you have to create a personality for yourself and make yourself have hobbies and interests and pets and things going on in your life because otherwise you just unfortunately end up in this sea of other people that don't have a really distinct personality or really distinct voice that makes them stand out right and you have a very specific niche don't you yes i do yeah my my primary niche especially when i was camming um is that i am all natural or a naturalist to some people say uh where i don't shave any of my body hair so i have my my i don't know if you can see i've got my armpit whatever okay i whatever who cares um my you know my [ __ ] and my legs all that uh and that's a really specific audience and the people that love it love it and the people that don't that's totally fine i get it yeah you're right there is a big divide there there's definitely people who who don't like it but there's definitely people who like [ __ ] love it like crazy about it and it's really clever of you to be able to pick up on that niche because you're right you know in a sea of women who are all trying to promote themselves i mean there's so many pairs of boobs as you said that you can see on the internet having a specific niche like that i would imagine probably really pays off yeah absolutely that was from day one i had because i had people because i i don't shave normally it's itchy and a pain in the ass i don't do it it's such a pain in the ass i [ __ ] hate it by the way i couldn't i couldn't i simply could not uh but i was thinking about the best thing about being married is i don't shave as much as i used to ask he's he's he's once again he's not going anywhere we had a baby he's not going anywhere i'm like you could literally worry about honestly this morning no joke i was in the shower i was like i'm gonna shave my legs today and i was like nah i need to but yeah totally fine if you know if hair is not your thing but if you're looking at a naked woman and the first thing that you notice is like ew [ __ ] hair that feels like a personal problem you know like if you're looking at a beautiful naked woman and you're like turned off by hair that has grown on women's bodies for all of eternity and time then that feels like a personal problem frankly sounds like a you problem yeah yeah you don't have to buy my porn but like you don't have to haven't have anything to say about it right so tell me a little bit about um maybe some of your top like requests or maybe most interesting requests from fans because i know that being a cam girl and having an online fans having that direct connection with fans every girl i talk to has always got like some really interesting kinks that people are into yeah oh yeah well especially with night flirt uh because you know it is really personal and i think people go on there because you know they feel like they don't really have anyone to talk to about it or they feel a little weird maybe looking it up or they want someone to engage with them with it that maybe they don't want to ask their wife or however whatever reason there is uh you i get i get a lot of cucks a lot of cuckolds and that is like my primary for some reason i couldn't tell you why that's my primary uh audience is cuckolds and can you explain to people who might not know because sometimes we get uh new listeners and who aren't familiar with the language can you explain what cuck-holding is yeah uh cocco living has you know different people are into different aspects of it but essentially it's the idea that another man is going to [ __ ] your wife or your girlfriend or the object of your desire essentially and for um some men that involves you know small penis humiliation that involves um there's there can be like weird racial elements to it honestly yeah yeah a lot of cuckolding stuff that i see is is like bbc cuck-holding with a white man and a black man having sex with his wife and yeah you see a lot of that and like it's like dream [ __ ] holding i guess i don't know it's like almost like horseshoe theory where it's almost like getting back to like it's like a version of white supremacy that is so like weird and ingrained that it almost becomes like black supremacy where like the idea for most of these men that i've interacted with that have that racial element to it they're like black men are superior to white men and obviously that's based in like weird neo-nazi [ __ ] but it's so like like circular it seems like you really i i'm i couldn't know but there's more interesting stuff with that like i think that this personal theory from a personal experience talking to dozens and dozens of people is i really feel like cuckoldry for some people is kind of a gateway into allowing themselves to explore their attraction to men or masculinity i find that a lot of couples that i talk to really want it's almost like they're into the idea of being with a man but kind of being like forced into it a little bit like like a lot of them talk about wanting to um the term that people use is bull uh wanting to suck the bulls uh dick after he comes like in your wife or wanting to lick the [ __ ] out of your wife's [ __ ] or want it a lot of them stop at wanting stuff in their ass i find that most of them don't want something in their ass which is where i think that all not confusion but i think that hesitancy where it's like and that's where i think that having really you know specific language to talk about your attraction and the way that you experience your attraction to others is really important because i think a lot of these men have some kind of vague attraction to men or to you know to dicks or to masculinity and they don't really know how to express it or explore it and i think cuckoldry is kind of a way to almost safely explore that that's so interesting and you know i never thought about it that way but that makes a lot of sense and you know when you first mentioned that it kind of made me think of you know what we call like the ravishment fantasies with women like women who have fantasies about being you know taken against their will and like a con cn cnc scenario consent non-consent scenario or consensual non-consent um and i had a i talked to christopher ryan on this podcast this was actually one of my first interviews and he talked about you know we talked about the the the ravishment fantasy and he talked about the idea that you know a lot of women feel like they can't be overtly sexual creatures they can't want sex they can't desire sex because it's like not proper you know women are not supposed to be that way and so this ravishment fantasy kind of comes into play because it's the idea of like oh well i was taken against my will and like i didn't want to have this but then i had this experience and then i ended up enjoying it even though like initially i didn't want to because i'm like the good virgin or you know i'm the good girl so so it's interesting how like this this denial that human beings um force upon themselves you know in terms of like sexual fluidity or you know what it means to be a good girl or whatever then kind of comes out in these interesting ways in sex absolutely i totally agree i i think uh you know obviously there's you know everybody's different of course but i think a lot of people have a really hard time expressing and figuring out exactly what it is that they're into and what they're attracted to i think there's a lot of you know shame and it's confusing and you know if you kind of stumble into something a particular fetish or kink and maybe it kind of freaks you out a little bit you know like if you're you know into consensual consent i'm sure for some people it's probably a little confusing you know because you don't actually want to have you know an act of sexual violence committed against you but at the same time there's just something in your monkey brain that just you can't explain but just wants that and i think that that's i think probably scary for some people but it's really hard to parse that out and i think i think for me what's kind of a gift of asexuality is that it's never muddied by the person that i'm doing it with you know i never wonder am i into this because i like this person or i'm into this because i like the way this this is or the way this feels the way it makes my monkey brain feel i i s purely experience the you know like the kinks and the the interests and the you know specific ways that i like sex or that i like the human body um without almost like the cloud of attraction yeah yeah that makes sense so you kind of feel like it's almost easier to deliver um what your customers are after because you're kind of removed from it in a way yeah just like we said with other sex workers it's not about when you know if you're you know a phone sex worker or if you're doing a shoot or you know you're a full-service sex worker it's not about you know how much you're really into the person it's about providing a fantasy and providing a service and creating something that for other people to consume it's up to you yeah you know you know you just got me kind of thinking about like other service industry jobs like when you work as a waiter or a cook in a restaurant you're not like necessarily doing it because like i guess if you're a cook you probably love to cook but you know you yeah maybe maybe some of them but there's like never books out there working for nine bucks an hour at ihop that's true that's true okay so that's true so so yeah but that's what i mean like as a service worker like or a masseuse or something you know you don't probably necessarily always are like super excited about massaging this person you know like the the the idea that people have around sex workers that like both ends have to be really into it and they have to enjoy it otherwise it's like soul-crushing work you know like if you're a sex worker a full-service sex worker who's having sex with somebody who you're not necessarily attracted to and into that must be like a soul-crushing endeavor but could we step back and look at it from the way that you just said it's like i'm providing a service for somebody and you know this is my job and i get paid for it and that person is walking away happy like couldn't that be enough for me like you know what i mean like we we do we're funny about sexuality yeah and you know for i'm really i'm really lucky i don't do anything that i don't want to do you know i'm in full control of my content i've you know as i said i haven't had sex with any camera just not yet maybe maybe one day but uh that for me is really lucky that you know obviously everything on the internet is forever i'm sure there'll be there's i'm sure there's still frames of me that aren't very flattering but at the same time you know that's a that's a genie in the bottle that i let out and i accepted that when i started to do this that's what i'm gonna do and i came into it with the idea of like like business really like i was like i'm gonna make you know make my living and make my money and do this in a specific way in a way that benefits me and doesn't compromise what i want to do because i was really lucky to have that option mm-hmm you know it's so funny all these things that you're saying making me think about like other things and like personal experiences that kind of relate and not to like turn this into saying about me but i'm i'm gonna do i'm interested um so i started and only fans a couple of years ago um and i started modeling nude which i hadn't done my entire career i've been in the industry for 22 years right and i've been a i've been a director photographer for 22 years and so when i finally started doing nude modeling it was like quite a surprise to everybody including myself um but but i only do it you know for my only fans like nobody else shoots me for any other brands like most the time my husband shoots me or i just use a tripod um so quicker yeah actually i use the self timer because i don't want to have no thing in my hand no you need a clicker no because then i get to hide my change my life i say if i had two things i would have my phone and a clicker i could make a tripod out of sticks and the clicker is worth the five dollar investment i'm telling you it's like survival you know like they drop you in the middle of the forest and like what two things do you have to survive as a clicker and a phone and i can live i can i can make my money and like get myself out of there absolutely absolutely but what i was gonna say is that i have so many people you know that right into me and say like oh what's it like to like now be in front of the camera and um to know that like men are like masturbating to you or like you know does it turn you on like like they want to hear me talk about like how this has you know changed changed my like sex life and i'm like so like in when i take these pictures i'm like oh people are gonna like masturbate to my tits oh my god this is great but i don't think about that at all i think about like it is a business endeavor just like you do and i'm like you know i don't even love being in front of the camera i don't dislike it but my favorite thing is being behind the camera i much prefer that but i actually i really only do the only fan so i can make enough money so i can produce shoots where i shoot other people naked that's literally why i do it so i can shoot other people i shoot myself naked so i can make money so i can shoot other people naked because that's my interest um but yeah for me it's really like and it's been a great experience for many other ways and i've actually talked about this um if you go to my youtube channel i have a couple of videos talking about like how modeling nude has kind of helped like change my confidence level and you know has made me feel like better about my postpartum body and that kind of thing so it's been like actually a wonderful thing in that way but but yeah like same kind of things what you're saying like for me it's really like a business endeavor you know i'm not necessarily doing it because i'm like so turned on by the idea of other people looking at me naked exactly yeah and i like i love what i do you know i wouldn't i wouldn't sign on to talk to people on the phone if i didn't want to do it um you know but at the same time yeah i like it if i didn't make good money doing it i wouldn't do it you know like if if the payoff wasn't worth what i put into it and you know the the consequences frankly then i wouldn't do it you know i would do something else i it could be any other thing sex work just happens to be what i do but i would probably put this level of you know time and attention and care into what i'm doing into any other thing just happens to be this yeah and then also like you know another question that a lot of sex workers get like oh well would you do this if you like you know you had to do it for free like nobody would do any job if they to do it for free like like we live in a capitalistic world we have to pay our [ __ ] bills like would i talk to strangers on the phone about their dicks for free no sadly i was having sex with people for free so that was a mistake but that was my real mistake but uh but no i would not do uh my modeling or my phones or my cams for free no that's the whole let's talk about let's talk about the phone sex thing because you kind of casually mentioned that you do that and i know that you're doing a lot of that more lately um and before we started you were telling me that you've got quite a few guys who have a is a sneezing fetish is that what you said yup yeah i've had at least three separate people request sneezing interesting and did they explain to you why they were into this i did have one guy explained to me and it did make sense i will say this this is probably the best explanation you're probably ever gonna get for someone who's into sneezing but he said that he used to have a girlfriend that had like seasonal allergies and they would have sex and she would sneeze when they were having sex and her [ __ ] would get really tight and and and like every so often on twitter this goes around where it's like you should cough while you're well your man's in you because it's gonna feel really good and so i think he got like pavlov trained that the sneeze felt really good on his stick wow and that is like that makes sense i can totally get a to b from that so that one it makes sense the other two i don't think have explained to me usually they kind of tend to go along with like um like burping and farting fetishes as well so it kind of is like you you gotta what it tends in my experience has been that if there's one fetish somebody's into there kind of tends to be a circ sort of venn diagram of things that are likely also into so if someone approaches you being really submissive you know there might be a chance based on at least my clientele that they might be into like being submissive which could lead into humiliation which could lead into small penis humiliation which uh could lead into being sissified uh which is when you basically it's like getting off and being emasculated so like the maid outfit uh kind of things you see on filmed uh oh specified like being like being forced to dress like a [ __ ] yeah yeah made to dress up like like a girl and emasculate yourself essentially right right right this is okay yeah that's yeah that's uh so interesting you know i had i wonder if two if the phone sex um stuff people feel a little bit more open to indulge in like fantasies that they [Music] maybe have a little bit of shame around because you can't see them and they're just talking to you on the phone was it i guess on cam they can't see you either but you can see them and i think that and if they're looking at the camera a lot it does get a little parasocial oh you can see them but they can choose like uh like if now what i mean is like if your viewer is watching you and you're directing interacting with them pretty directly it feels more personal oh i see what you're saying yeah because like there's other people kind of watching you interact with them right but yeah but i totally agree with thinking that people i think people definitely call because there's a little bit of shame um they do my in my experience it's a lot of like older men people who seem to be married or in long-term relationships or are like on the road or have like a lifestyle that doesn't allow them to have a relationship or a fulfilling sex life and so i think a lot of people they they like talking to a real person you know if some people totally fine to have your five minute heavy breathing call totally fine by me those are super fine but sometimes you have people that just want to talk and want to have someone to listen to and want to they want to call again and they want you to remember things about them so it's kind of a whole series but i i do think that it seems to be that on phone sex sites like night flirt submissive men are very very very popular there's a lot of doms that do really well it seems to be a lot of men that are more submissive do you have regulars who call you and do you end up like just chatting and like never getting to anything sexual at all yeah oh yeah i have i have people like that i have people that have called for an hour um just to talk uh one guy was telling me all about how he was he loved the movie cleopatra from like the 60s to the 70s and he had he went every day over the summer to the point that he would just let him in for free and he was just like obsessed with the clear factors as a figure but as the movie it was great he bought the 10 hour version of it when it came out in 2000 for like 10 000 and he's never watched it he's waiting for this special day which i don't blame him i would i would wait for the special day too wait what's the special day what's the special day i don't i don't i think it's just like when he feels like it's right you know when the universe feels like it's the perfect day to finally watch the nine or ten hour cut of cleopatra that was lost he better jump on that because you know life is short and you [ __ ] never he's getting older he's a little bit older he's got a grown son i know people just tell you all sorts of stuff because they don't have anyone to tell otherwise and i i feel like i can generally hold a pretty good conversation so i find that people really open up to me pretty easily and that if people want to talk i feel like i can generally be a pretty good listening ear and just let them get it out and let them kind of explore what exactly they're trying to get out with it right yeah i've talked to a lot of sex workers who say that they kind of feel more like a therapist than a sex worker that a lot of a lot of times people just want someone to connect with you know like a companion i feel like i'm more of a companion yeah well ellie thank you so much for coming on this is super interesting thank you so much for having me yeah i know it was

Enduring to the End
sometimes we may fall into the Trap of thinking oh I've been baptized or oh I've been to the temple so I've checked that off my list uh and Nephi tries to warn against that in second Nephi 31:19 he says and now my beloved Brethren after youve gotten into this straight and narrow path talking about baptism and repentance I would ask if all is done behold I say unto you nay for ye have not not come thus far save it were by the word of Christ with unshaken faith in him relying wholly upon the merits of him who is mighty to save so coming back to that emphasis from the beginning we always have to remember that Jesus Christ is our Exemplar and he is the one that we look to and it's ultimately because of him that we have this but we can't just say oh I've been baptized or oh I've repented and I'm good and so Nephi says to help warn you against that in verse 20 wherefore you must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ having a perfect brightness of Hope and a love of God and of all men wherefore if you shall press forward feasting upon the word of Christ and endure to the end behold thus saith the father ye shall have eternal life Nephi gives us some things that we can do to stay faithful uh Callan your example of saying I'm continuing to go through the Book of Mormon I'm continuing to read the good word that means you're fulfilling exactly what the Savior said and what Nephi is encouraging us to do is we have to continue on the process so we get baptized we repent well we got to remember those baptismal covenants partake of the sacrament on a weekly basis helps us to do that and we have to continue to repent and that's how we can endure to the [Music] end
